Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MI

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: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Navy Federal Credit Union withdrew {$1800.00} from my account via a " DR-adjustment '' that I did not authorize. This was a fraudulent transaction under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1693 et seq. ) and Regulation E. I demanded restoration of the funds and full documentation, including ownership of any alleged debt tied to this adjustment, but Navy Federal has failed to comply. This complaint is being filed due to their refusal to investigate and correct the error as required under federal law.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 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.

Product: Debt collection — Rental debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: HW Holding, Inc
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am a co-tenant on the lease for XXXX XXXX XXXX. Our family submitted a proper notice to vacate, which was acknowledged in writing by leasing staff ( XXXX ), confirming we were in good standing. We vacated the unit on XXXX XXXX XXXX ahead of our lease ending on XXXX XXXX since the leasing office would be closed that day. All keys, fobs, and remotes were returned, and we received written confirmation that possession was accepted by XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX 

Despite this, management ( XXXX XXXX ) later reversed course, refused to accept our XXXX rent payment, and claimed that XXXX confirmation was an error and that she lacked authority. We were told she had been instructed by Regional Manager XXXX XXXX not to accept any payments from us on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, when we attempted to pay in full.

We were then served with a 3-day notice for unpaid rent, even though we made good faith efforts to pay. Later, without providing any itemized breakdown or proper accounting, the management claimed we owed over {$8000.00}. Sterling Bales also unilaterally changed our lease end date to XXXX XXXX XXXX, in an apparent attempt to justify the inflated charge, even though our original lease clearly ended on XXXX XXXX  and we followed proper procedures.

We submitted written requests for clarification and an itemized statement, but the company has not responded. We believe this is an unfair and deceptive business practice. Since filing our complaints, XXXX XXXX has begun reaching out repeatedly, possibly in response to the CFPB filings. 

We are requesting the CFPBs help in ensuring this is not sent to collections, protecting our credit, and resolving the matter fairly. We have proof of everything.

Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.

Complaint narrative:
Basically, the card was stolen, it was reported and the debt is not mine. We went to court over it twice and each time a judge discharged it bc they did not show up. When this happens they " sell '' the debt to one of their partners who continues to attempt to collect the debt. These transactions have been disputed since the account was active with XXXX XXXX. I notified XXXX XXXX of the unlawful transactions immediately to which they advised the card would be canceled. They did not cancel the card. Thus charges I never authorized continued to build. I feel like the debt collectors are running some kind of scam, knowing the debt is from fraudulent transactions but they still sell the debt back and forth in hopes of being able to collect it. The always fail to appear at trial and refuse to investigate the fraudulent transactions that were reported to XXXX XXXX as soon as they were noticed.
