Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act FCRA, these accounts listed below are violating my federally protected rights to privacy and confidentiality. 

XXXX - Account # XXXX XXXX XXXX - Account # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - Account # XXXX XXXX  - Account # XXXX The banking system is very dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Any inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system and undermine the public confidence of this very same banking system. 
I sent out letter to the credit bureaus on XX/XX/2022 disputing these accounts, requesting them to be REMOVE from my credit file. Pursuant to 15 U.S CODE 1681 ( b ) PERMISSIBLE PURPOSE OF CONSUMER CREDIT ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and NO OTHER; ( 1 ) In response to a court written order, having jurisdiction to issue such order ; ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. I did not give the bureaus any oral or written instructions to furnish any consumer report on my behalf.

The credit bureaus wrote me be stating that the information was verified. But how can it be verified when they did not follow proper procedure according to the law? They did not provide me with what reasonable procedures they used to verify these accounts. 15 U.S CODE 1681e ( a ) Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of 15 U.S CODE 1681 ( b ) PERMISSIBLE PURPOSE OF CONSUMER REPORT. ( b ) Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report, it shall follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum accuracy. It's very clear the credit bureaus are using my private information at my expense by damaging my consumer credit report and credit worthiness for their own financial gains with the data furnishers who they have special business interests with and neglecting I, the consumer who they are lawfully obligated to deal with in a manner that is fair and equitable.

I, hereby demand the removal of the previously mentioned accounts from my consumer report effective IMMEDIATELY. and a { XXXX } fine for every violation of unauthorized information on my report since I first contacted the bureaus on XX/XX/2022 pursuant to U.S.C 1681n- Civil liability for willful noncompliance ). The credit bureaus continue to damage my CREDIT WORTHINESS AND MY REPUTATION.

Company: The J. G. Wentworth Company
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I signed up for Debt Settlement services wit JG Wentworth. I was promised that I was pre-qualified for a program that would be guaranteed to settle all of my debts included in the program, and once all debts had been settled I was guaranteed to receive a loan to pay the outstanding balances and repair my credit. I signed up for the program and have now for more than 6 months been making my payments as planned. However, JG Wentworth made a mistake and can not qualify me for the previously promised loan because my total debts exceeded the limits of the program criteria. My credit has been significantly impacted upon this false promise from JG Wentworth and they are unwilling to correct their mistake. I have contacted them requesting several options to resolve this situation and each time JG Wentworth simply states that I have to put more money into the program and/or wait more time to reduce the debts to the loan approval range. However, not only will this take multiple years, JG Wentworth is no longer pursuing any debt resolutions for the outstanding balances with creditors because there are no funds left with which to reach an agreement. All of the program payment funds made by me have been tied into resolving only 2 accounts. I am now in collections with multiple collections agencies and JG Wentworth is doing nothing but charging fees from my program payment while doing no work to make good on their promises. JG Wentworth confirmed the person responsible for the false promises made has been terminated and Compliance reviewed the call and confirmed their were false promises made
