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

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 each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was already discharged in bankruptcy and is no longer owed
Company: Regional Management Corporation
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
T

he debt has been written off and I no longer owe a payment. The creditor did not send me a 1099c when they wrote off this debt, so that I could do the same. The balance is still reporting on my credit report as negative and that I owe this balance, even though they took a tax break! I am requesting a copy of my 1099C, that I didnt receive. This is making my credit report negative with inaccuracies. According to the FCRA, I can seek statutory damages if a creditor furnishes inaccurate information about a debt, such as incorrectly reporting a charge-off, while still claiming I owe the debt.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
This problem came to light back in XX/XX/year> when i requested an increase in my credit line. I contacted Capital One and they said I had litigation pending against me but could not tell me anything further. When they refused to answer my questions, I filed a claim with CFPB and when they finally responded they attached the account of someone completely different than me in Texas. I grew frustrated and filed another complaint. This time, I was sent a court case that was originally filed against me 14 years ago and has since been vacated. The court case they have erroneously attached, case number XXXX XXXX XXXX in the circuit court of XXXX XXXX, IL- does not exist as it has long since been vacated. I have searched for any records pertaining to that case and they are not available. 

Capital One has previously displayed their horrific attention to customer details by attaching the wrong customer 's financial information to a previous complaint, and now they seem to be making up court cases to deny my credit line increases.

Complaint narrative:
" I am addressing the issue with regarding the noncompliance. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not, that is considered identity theft.

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, there exists statutory civil liability for willful noncompliance. This provision stipulates that any person who willfully fails to comply with consumer protection requirements may be liable to the affected consumer for damages, including potential punitive measures and reimbursement of legal costs. This underscores the importance of addressing and rectifying this matter promptly and responsibly.
