Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am updating a late payment that is currently being reported on my credit report as " open '' or unresolved. This entry is inaccurate and misleading. I have either already resolved the payment, or I was never late as claimed. The continued reporting of this item as open and delinquent is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. 

This misreporting has negatively impacted my credit score and may hinder my ability to obtain credit or employment. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, as well as a correction or deletion of the inaccurate late payment record if it can not be verified.

Complaint narrative:
I had been a customer of XXXX XXXX for XXXX yrs. When the bill got to be more than i could afford I called and cancelled the service approximately XXXX of 2023. I paid the current bill which was actually a month in advance despite the fact they disconnected the service immediately. They sent me boxes and I packaged up and returned all the equipment to XXXX XXXX. Approximately 6 months later they sent me a bill. When I contacted XXXX they verified I had paid the last bill and returned equipment, but explained it was an early cancellation fee. Approximately a year earlier my XXXX kept going out, they said because I had been a customer so long and my equipment was old. So the technician replaced the old equipment with new. XXXX said this began a new contract,, which I was not aware of and since I paid for the service I thought working equipment should be required for them to fulfill their part of our " contract ''. XXXX has now turned this over to XXXX XXXX Collections. I do not feel I owe this debt as i paid the bill in full and immediately returned their equipment to the company. This is an attempt to extort money from an elderly widow.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc

Complaint narrative:
Original XXXX XXXX  Transfer on XXXX XXXX My ex husband transferred & XXXX By Accident from his PayPal account into my XXXX XXXX  savings account. 
I reported this as an unrecognized credit to XXXX as it did not have my ex husbands name attached to the transfer. 
The funds were reversed on XX/XX/XXXX. 

After my ex husband asked me to contact XXXX and explain it was not an issue and to try and expedite the money being returned to my account so that I could simply transfer the funds to him directly I contacted XXXX again and they credited my account with the funds on XX/XX/XXXX. 

Then I transferred a portion of the funds to my ex husbands personal PayPal account ( per his request & differing from the real time transfer ) on XX/XX/XXXX - {$7200.00}. 

Then somewhere along the way between me communicating with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX they removed the {$9900.00} from my savings account and sent a XXXX XXXX XXXX to the PayPal account. 
I have spoken to XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
on the phone many times and been into my local branch many times and they assured me the funds were transferred into the PayPal account, and yet the funds are missing from the PayPal account. 
My ex and I have been on the phone many times with PayPals Limitations and Disputes Dept. because it is not my account they will not disclose any information to me, but to my ex they state every time that there is no record of this transfer on XX/XX/XXXX. 

This is a lot of money to me and I have hit a wall in getting help to figure out where the funds are.

XX/XX/year>XXXX  my account got compromised again and more funds were taken out, I asked the company how were funds taken from a card that was cancelled on the XXXX?, they replied saying that both transactions were made on the XXXX when my transaction history says different. I've have talked with several agents I was told I was going to get a temporary credit to my account never received it, I was told my account would be waived if negative balances because of the unauthorized transactions my account is styin the negatives. This company is horrible I'm convinced that these fraudulent transactions are coming from internal individuals hacking customers accounts.I also got a notification saying the credit was added to card that was cancelled so how am I supposed to receive funds to a cancelled card? It makes no sense.
