Consumer complaint received 2025-01-19 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: OR

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report.

Despite my submissions, Equifax consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation.

This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C.

5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My capital one bank, had an issue, refused to inform us with details until a day later. I have direct deposit, and was supposed to get paid from my job to pay off bills. I have fallen behind and now have interest fees which are high, because capital did not inform us on time or not tell us what was fully going on. I would like to get paid for the interest fees from my water and phone bill, which are behind because of this reason.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against navy federal credit union regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds when transactions were authorized, I was charged fees due to lagged posting of charges and credits. This issue aligns with the recent CFPB findings against navy federal for similar practices where transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initially available funds. I believe these practices are unfair and request an investigation into my account transactions.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution in Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions were unfeasible. The CFPBs findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers, but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Hi, I tried opening TD complete checking with {$300.00} bonus, but it said I needed additional verification and to contact either support number or go to branch in -person. Support number said I had to come to branch in-person. 

I made an appointment for in-person appt and the guy helping me said the account would have no bonus because I am not opening the account online ( but it was impossible for me to open acct online because it said to come in person ). 

I want my {$300.00} bonus for opening my checking account, else I wasted my time and got tricked into making an appointment and coming in person. 

Thank you

Complaint narrative:
Dillards credit card company back during the pandemic of 2020 had late payments from my deceaseds husband account and put them on my Dillards account and will not/has not removed these negative reportings from my consumer credit account.

Dillards has caused me great emotional distress and loss opportunities due to their deceptive, unfair credit reporting.

My husband opened that account in my name and he paid, used that account without my knowledge/permission. My husband died during the COVID-19 Pandemic of 2020 and that account was his doing, not mine. 
I only became aware of that account after his death.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I applied for an American Express Credit Card on XX/XX/XXXX. It was initially denied due to a Freeze on my account with all three of the reporting credit agencies. I contacted AE and reported the freeze had been lifted. A generated letter stated they are denying my request for their CC due to agencies reported, XXXX in particular, I have Canceled too many bank cards recently! I called AE to speak to someone for clarification? I understand you have to meet certain conditions to obtain Credit Cards. I have never heard of a consumer being denied because I cancelled cards that did NOT serve my best interest? My credit score is excellent, my income isnt an issue, I am Never late, my credit history is 50+years old, No Bankruptcies either. I questioned them about why are they denying a borrower for cancelling credit cards? This is NOT the same as being cancelled by the bank for non payment etc. The Supervisor repeated the same reasons. I told him the terms on the cards were unacceptable, and I made a decision to close them. I find their decision unacceptable and indeed insulting. Is this a valid reason? 

Thank you for your time and consideration!
