An account is being reported under an incorrect creditors name.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
Experian and Equifax has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit R Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian and Equifax, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian and Equifax has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian and Equifax inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I went to the XXXX XXXX branch of Wells Fargo Bank to open a joint checking account with my current spouse. During the new account set-up, I was informed that there was an existing account that was opened under my name and SSID online in Delaware. I informed the representative that I did not open the account, and was unaware that a person was using my name and SSID to make transactions with the bank. The fraudulent account was opened online on XX/XX/year> under an old address. The account holder did have a mailing address on the statement that was displayed as XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NY XXXX. I affirm that I have never lived at that address, nor have I ever used that as a mailing address. I do not know how this individual received my SSID, but I suspect that it may have been purchased on the dark web. Wells Fargo did freeze that account as of today ( XX/XX/year> ). I am making a formal complaint to have this incident documented. The major credit bureaus have been alerted of this fraudulent activity as well.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue while managing or servicing your loan
Company: Data Mortgage Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Mortgage Servicing Misrepresentation, Failure to Comply with RESPA, and Potential Wrongful Foreclosure I am the borrower on two mortgage loans originated with XXXX XXXX for my property located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, GA XXXX. 

XXXX XXXX  ( Data Mortgage Inc. ) has engaged in deceptive and unlawful servicing practices, including : 1. Failure to Comply with RESPA ( 12 U.S.C. 2605 ( e ) ) I submitted a Qualified Written Request ( QWR ) demanding proof of XXXX XXXX authority, including the original promissory note with endorsements, the full chain of assignments, and any servicing agreements. 
XXXX failed to provide this information, instead sending only a copy of the original note from the originating lender. 
2. Contradictory Statements About Servicing Rights XXXX XXXX admitted in writing that my XXXX XXXX was deactivated due to foreclosure proceedings. 
MERS ServicerID records show XXXX XXXX  is Inactive, while another company, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, is listed as the Active servicer. 
Despite this, XXXX continues to claim it is the lawful servicer and has authority to collect and foreclose. 
XXXX. Conflicting Credit Reporting On XX/XX/year>, Experian updated my credit report after my dispute. XXXX reported the account as Transferred, Closed / Never Late, with a zero balance. 
This directly contradicts XXXX position to me that they are still the servicer. 
4. Pattern of Unauthorized Transfers XXXX previously transferred my second mortgage during a pending QWR dispute, without proof of ownership or authority. 
I fear they will attempt the same with my first mortgage, exposing me to potential wrongful foreclosure. 


Harm Suffered : Ongoing stress and uncertainty regarding who actually holds or services my loan. 
Risk of wrongful foreclosure by a company unable to prove lawful standing. 
Damaged ability to resolve my mortgage due to conflicting and incomplete information.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Im writing to formally dispute an inaccurate tradeline currently being reported on my credit file. The information being reported is not accurate, and more importantly, it fails to meet the standard of maximum possible accuracy as required by 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Let me be clear if a tradeline can not be reported with complete and verifiable accuracy, then you are not legally allowed to report it at all. Right now, the way this account is appearing on my credit report is misleading, harmful, and not reflective of my true credit history. Thats unacceptable, and I will not sit back while my credit profile is being damaged by something that shouldnt even be there.

Company: Self Financial Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Dispute of Inaccurate Credit Report Information I am writing to formally dispute the accuracy of information reported on my XXXX  credit file. The account in question is listed as : Creditor Name : Self Financial / Lead Bank Account Type : Secured Card Account Number ( partial ) : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX This account is being reported as charged-off with a past due balance of {$200.00}, but I believe this information is inaccurate and/or incomplete. Specifically : 1. The account is reported as charged off, yet the balance and status information appear inconsistent and do not clearly reflect the correct standing of the account. 
2. The reported late payments ( shown on my report from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX ) may not accurately reflect my actual payment history.

3. The account may have been misreported as past due when it should instead reflect a different or updated status.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I request that Experian investigate this matter with the creditor and provide me with written verification of the accuracy of this account. If the creditor can not provide sufficient documentation to validate the information as accurate, I request that the account be corrected or removed from my credit report.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) 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. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.
