Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. CXXXXe XXXX ) says ( XXXX ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. CXXXXe XXXX ( XXXX ) and 15 U.S. Code XXXX. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code XXXXn, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: CAINE & WEINER COMPANY, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Report of Unfair Collection Practices and XXXX XXXX XXXX Credit Bureau On XX/XX/year>, I made a full payment of {$XXXX} to XXXX for a debt I owed. XXXX has confirmed receipt of this payment, and the account was settled in full. 

However, Caine & Weiner, a collections agency, later contacted me claiming I still owed money. They reported a balance of {$XXXX} on my XXXX credit report, asserting that I had paid only {$XXXX}, which is inaccurate. In an email from a Caine & Weiner representative, they stated I owed {$XXXX}. Despite this, they reported a balance of {$XXXX} to the credit bureaus, which is also incorrect. 

This discrepancy suggests that Caine & Weiner is misrepresenting the debt and attempting to charge me more than what I owe while providing false information to the credit bureaus. These incorrect claims have negatively impacted my business credit rating. 

Actions Taken : XXXX. I made the full payment of {$XXXX} to XXXX on XX/XX/year>, and XXXX has acknowledged the payment. 

XXXX. Despite this, Caine & Weiner reported the incorrect amount owed to the credit bureaus, leading to damage to my credit rating. 

This false reporting has caused harm to my business credit, affecting my ability to secure business opportunities and creating unnecessary financial strain. I am requesting that the CFPB investigate this matter and assist in having the false information removed from my credit report. 

Thank you for your attention to this issue.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I used an ATM at a Capital One branch, where the machine took {$120.00} in cash and my {$3000.00} check but displayed an error message. The bank teller acknowledged that there was an issue with the machine and provided me with information to open a claim. I immediately contacted Capital One on the same day and opened a claim over the phone. 

The following week, while I was on vacation, my account was overcharged by a hotel. I opened a second claim with Capital One regarding this charge. I was told that there would be a decision in XXXX business days. However, on day XXXX of having XXXX claims open, I was cut off from using my debit card and account services, and no adequate reasoning was provided.

I repeatedly asked if it would be possible to transfer my funds to an external account or if I could withdraw the money in person at a branch. Both requests were denied. I was left without access to my account or my funds, with no clear explanation as to why these actions were taken.
