Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this formal complaint regarding a series of discriminatory and humiliating incidents I experienced at two Wells Fargo branches in XXXX, XXXX  between XX/XX/XXXX and XXXXXXXX XXXX 

Despite being a longstanding Wells Fargo customer with verified identification and no criminal history, I was repeatedly denied access to my own account and subjected to racial profiling. The issue began when I attempted to deposit a legitimate {$30000.00} settlement check issued by XXXX XXXX XXXX following a motor vehicle accident. The check was made out in my name, accompanied by all supporting documentation. 

Both branches refused to honor the check, falsely labeling it as fraudulent. XXXX loudly questioned the validity of my account and ID, creating a public scene that cast me as suspicious in front of other customers. I was denied access to my account five separate times across these two locations. 

Due to Wells Fargos refusal to process the check, I was forced to visit a third-party bank to cash itthen carry {$30000.00} in physical cash back to my Wells Fargo branch . This exposed me to significant personal risk and further compounded the trauma of the situation. 

Even after accepting the XXXX transaction, claiming they lacked proper account informationdespite having just accepted a far larger deposit days prior. This inconsistency, paired with repeated denials and public accusations, strongly suggests discriminatory treatment. 

Over the course of this ordeal, I was racially profiled at least six times. I was treated as a threat, denied basic banking services, and publicly embarrassedall without cause. I am requesting a full investigation into the conduct of these branches and the individuals involved.

If this matter is not resolved promptly and transparently, I am prepared to pursue legal action. This includes filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ( OCC ), and relevant civil rights enforcement agencies.

I am prepared to provide all supporting documentation, including the original settlement check, identification records, and transaction history. I expect accountability, corrective action, and a formal apology from Wells Fargo.

PLEASE REQUEST ANY SPECIFIC DOCUMENTATION, I CAN PROVIDE EVERY DETAIL

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against Experian for reporting inaccurate, outdated, and unverifiable account information on my credit report. I submitted a formal written dispute to Experian on XX/XX/year>, referencing FTC Report Number XXXX, requesting reinvestigation and validation of multiple accounts as allowed under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 611. 

Despite my efforts, Experian continues to report these accounts without providing sufficient evidence or documentation verifying their accuracy. Several accounts contain discrepancies such as : Inconsistent delinquency reporting ( e.g., 60/90/120 days late ) Charge-off statuses without full validation Collections without proof of debt ownership or placement Lack of compliance with Metro 2 reporting standards No documentation of last payment or settlement activity The accounts in question include : XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX reporting charge-offs and XXXX delinquencies without full validation. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX a XXXX delinquency ; I requested verification of the XXXX. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) Collection account without proof of debt, placement, or ownership validation. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX & XXXX XXXX XXXX accounts with missing details on last payments, settlement, and full documentation. 

XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX without validation or verification of data accuracy. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX charge-off without ownership documentation or accurate payment history. 

I have made a good faith effort to resolve this directly with Experian, but the agency has failed to meet its FCRA obligations by continuing to report information without verifiable proof. These actions are damaging my credit and may violate FCRA 611 and related provisions concerning consumer reporting accuracy and reinvestigation procedures.

I am disputing the presence of unauthorized and inaccurate accounts on my credit file. I never opened or authorized these accounts, and I was not notified of their addition.

This also violates 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which requires disputed information to be investigated and corrected or deleted within 30 days, as well as 15 U.S.C. 1681g, which requires credit bureaus to provide full and accurate disclosures.
