Consumer complaint received 2024-11-12 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I submitted a goodwill request to XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX, seeking the removal of several late payment entries on my credit report as a gesture of goodwill and for verification of accuracy under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). My request was based on my right to fair and accurate reporting, as mandated by FCRA and related U.S. Code provisions, including : 15 U.S.C. 602 : Declares the purpose of FCRA to ensure accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information in consumer reporting.

15 U.S.C. 1681 ( Section 604 ) : Grants consumers the right to request information used in credit reports and mandates credit reporting agencies to ensure accuracy and fair reporting.

15 U.S.C. 1666B : Establishes rules on how credit information must be reported, allowing consumers to dispute inaccuracies and requiring the removal of unverifiable information. 
Despite sending certified letters, I have not received confirmation of receipt or a response from XXXX and Equifax. Additionally, Equifax has continued to request duplicate documents that I have already provided, which feels like an intentional delay and obstruction of my right to timely dispute resolution under 15 U.S.C. 1681i. This section requires credit bureaus to investigate disputes within 30 to 45 days and inform the consumer of the results.

In my original request, I specifically asked each bureau to provide documentation proving the accuracy of each reported late payment, including : Payment records from the creditor showing the due date and receipt date for each payment. 
Account statements and billing history for the dates in question. 
Communication records regarding any notifications of missed or late payments. 
Date-specific verification for each late payment reported. 
I am requesting CFPB assistance to ensure that XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX fulfill their legal obligation to provide this verification or, if they can not, to remove these items from my credit report. These unverified entries are negatively impacting my credit standing, despite my commitment to improving my financial history. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.

Company: Chime Financial Inc
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Chime opened a credit card and a debit card in my name without my consent. I never solicited them for information for a card, yet one was opened in my name and the cards were mailed to me. As soon as I became aware of this, I called Chime and told them this was fraud and to close any accounts in my name because it was not me that opened them. I also alerted all three credit bureaus to lock my credit file. I received notice from Chime on XX/XX/year> that I would not be responsible for any debts and that the accounts had been closed. Yesterday, I received another email from Chime stating that my account is still open and that a deposit attempt was made. I have tried to resolve this with Chime, but they obviously do not take the law seriously and are fine with opening a card in my name when I never filled out an application nor authorized them to open accounts for me.

Complaint narrative:
I am conducting a forensic audit on my credit profile and discovered that you are reporting inaccurate information on my credit report. This account XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX has been charged off, which means the creditor has forfeited the right to collect on this account which is now a taxable income of which I have assumed tax liability for it as an income to me according to IRS. 
I have requested a XXXX Cancellation Of Debt Form from the original creditor but they declined and denied charging of this account as well as stated that they are not obligated to issue me a XXXX. 
Please be advised that this account has multiple inaccuracies eg, CO was listed multiple times instead of once. XXXX XXXX XXXX states that you have a responsibility to report maximum accuracy on my credit report. 
Ultimately, this creditor is in violation of my rights under FCRA, XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX which states that the creditor must obtain written instruction from me permitting them to report my information to the credit bureau. Secondly banks and credit bureaus are passing around my information without proper authority. 
Please, I need this account deleted from my credit report immediately.
