Consumer complaint received 2025-01-13 00:00:00
Product: Checking or savings account — Savings account
Issue: Managing an account — Problem accessing account
Company: SANTANDER HOLDINGS USA, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I used my personal computer to open a saving account on XX/XX/year> with XXXX, a division of Santander Bank. Came online again to make another deposit later and was unable to complete the transaction because it required that I use their app on my cell phone. I do not do internet banking or banking using my cell phone. I do it on my PC and do not use biometric data be voice or fingerprints. Called their number at XXXX, to request the return and closing of my account and was given a reference number XXXX and was told will get a call back to have my {$1000.00} returned in the same manner it was done when I opened the account by ACH bank transfer. Did not receive a call back and after contacting XXXX by phone again was told there was no such a reference. Asked for physical address and it was not provided. Tried to obtain the complete account number and routing number and was not provided. After wasting my time with the representative of XXXX, hanged up and had no other choice that to download the app and against my will. Forced to use my cell phone, emptied my account. In addition, I contacted the Santander Bank email -- several times -- that was the only email I was able to obtain on my own and XXXX to no avail. Find disingenuous and deceiving that they allow a person to open an account using a PC but force the customer to use a cell phone, a medium not used to open the account to access or service the account. Also, after opening the account, no documentation was provided upon doing the credit and background check to authorize the opening of the account which preclude the owner and/or depositor from stablishing a claim of ownership or dispute like in this case.

Complaint narrative:
Experian Dispute Resolution Department XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Subject : Failure to Investigate My CFPB Complaint Regarding Bankruptcy Reporting Dear Experian, I am writing to formally address your repeated failure to investigate my complaint regarding the inaccurate reporting of my bankruptcy on my credit report. Despite submitting my concerns through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), I have received the same response repeatedly : The company that reported the information has certified to Experian that the information is accurate. 

This response does not satisfy your obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable investigation into disputes. Additionally, I am aware that Experian was recently sued by the CFPB for failing to properly investigate consumer complaints. This reinforces my concern that your handling of my case has not been compliant with federal law. 

The information being reported is inaccurate, and I request a thorough investigation into this matter Please provide the following : 1. Documentation supporting the verification of the disputed information.

2. Evidence that Experian conducted a reasonable investigation as required under the FCRA.

3. An explanation of the steps taken to verify the accuracy of the information. 

If Experian can not verify the information, I demand its immediate removal from my credit report. Failure to address this issue will leave me no choice but to escalate this matter further, including filing additional complaints with the CFPB and potentially pursuing legal action. 

I trust that Experian will take this matter seriously and resolve it promptly. I expect to receive a response within 30 days as required by law. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX This will be filed in court as well.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute certain accounts and inquiries listed on my consumer credit report, as referenced below. These entries appear to be a result of a data breach, fraud, or unauthorized actions, and I request that they be thoroughly investigated. Additionally, I demand verifiable proof of any such inquiries, including documentation bearing my signature or electronic signature. 

Please note that I am sending this letter on my behalf, not through a third party. I ask that you review it carefully. I never authorized the actions in question, which constitutes a violation of my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Section 605B ( Block of information resulting from a data breach or fraud ) [ 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ] and Section 604 ( Permissible purposes of consumer reports ) [ 15 U.S.C. 1681b ].

I have already contacted the relevant companies and found that these actions were initiated without any valid proof or proper compliance. These accounts and inquiries are inaccurate and unauthorized, which leads me to believe they are the result of a data breach or the improper reporting of my information by creditors or a third-party data furnisher. 

I expect these fraudulent entries to be removed from my credit report immediately, in accordance with the FCRA. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
