I purchased and financed my car with XXXX XXXX XXXX in 2015. I missed several payments and XXXX placed the account in a negative status. I recently paid off the remaining balance. XXXX updated this account to the credit reporting agencies. I later contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX and informed them that the Statute of Limitations had expired and requested that they delete this account from all credit reporting agencies. XXXX deleted this account but XXXX and TransUnion did not. In fact, TransUnion told me to contact CFPB to resolve this issue in a speedy manner, since I need to resolve this matter. I would appreciate your efforts and actions on my behalf. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against Experian for their failure to properly address my dispute regarding inaccurate items on my credit report. 
On XX/XX/year>, I mailed a dispute letter to Experian via USPS certified mail ( tracking XXXX  XXXX ) requesting an investigation into inaccurate items on my report. Additionally, I disputed incorrect personal information listed on my credit report. To help Experian verify my identity and address, I included a copy of my photo ID, social security card, and a recent bill with my current address. 
Despite my clear and thorough request, I did not receive any response from Experian with investigation results. 
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information in a consumer 's file at a credit bureau is disputed by the consumer, the bureau must conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate. 
It appears that Experian has violated my consumer rights by not conducting a reasonable investigation upon receipt of my dispute, which they are required to do in accordance with the FCRA. 
I am including a copy of my dispute letter sent to Experian, along with proof of delivery as evidence.

You also stated that upon receipt and clearance of that amount, this account will be satisfied-in-full. Again see your letter attached to this document. Well, I paid according to this agreement.

Consumer complaint received 2024-08-01 00:00:00
Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease — Billing problem
Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
In and around XX/XX/XXXX, my auto insurance company issued a check to my wife to be used by her to repair her vehicle ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). However the check was issued to the names USAA Savings Bank & XXXX XXXX. She learned at a local XXXX XXXX that the check needed to be endorsed by USAA first, since they were first on the recipient line. Since my wife had already endorsed it, it was null and void. We contacted our auto insurance XXXX to ask for a new check, this time to be mailed directly to USAA. Prior to this call, we reached out to USAA to ask who we would send this check to. We were given the XXXX XXXX address ( Cash - XXXX Analyst ). 

Also in XXXX I had reapplied for a refinance loan on the very same vehicle. On XX/XX/XXXX, there was a principal payment made to the car loan, equivalent to the amount of the check my wife was issued to be used for her car repairs, {$8100.00}. Since this period I've called over 10 times, spoken to over 25 different representatives on how to receive this refund so that we can repair our vehicle. Each call I was told it was in progress with a date stamped, coincidentally on the day I called. But I could never get any further information. I asked to speak to managers but were told they don't have any direct contact lines.

This evening I called once again and learned from the USAA rep that this entire ordeal has been handled incorrectly and that our XXXX XXXX XXXX should've have never issued the check with USAA as one of the recipients. This has really frustrated me as I feel I should've been told this on the initial call when I inquired about who, in USAA, to send the check to. 

Also, I feel the notes that this check was to have been used for repairs should have been a clear indicator that this check should not have been used as a principal payment. 

Because of this we re having to wait almost two months and what will be longer ... .without any transparency in the process and also still with a vehicle that requires repairs.

I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.
