Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, 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 has neither corrected nor removed disputed 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 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I would like to express my concerns regarding zelles handling of disputes in light of the recent lawsuit highlighting cfbps handling of the platform despite using zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies. My financial institution and zelle have failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and tracking these transactions was unfeasable. The cfbps findings indicate that zelle has failed to protect its consumers and allow repeat offenders to exploit the system leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency for its users raises my concerns highly about consumer safety. I have had multiple issues with both sending and receiving money through zelle and it caused great distress.

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I was sent a fraudulent check, which I deposited into my account, not realizing at the time that it was fake. Shortly thereafter, I was contacted by someone claiming to be affiliated with the checks issuer, who insisted that I send a {$1000.00} payment via Zelle to resolve an alleged issue. Out of fear and confusion, I followed their instructions and sent the {$1000.00} to a random person, believing it was the only way to prevent further consequences. 

After realizing that I had been scammed, I immediately contacted the Zelle department, the police department and the actual bank branch to dispute the transaction. Unfortunately, I was denied access to my account, and despite several attempts, I did not receive a follow-up call regarding the status of my dispute. It was only after I proactively called again that I was informed about the next steps, which have yet to yield a resolution. 

As a result, my account now has a negative balance due to the {$1000.00} Zelle transaction, and I am urgently requesting the following : Investigation and Resolution : I kindly request that you investigate the fraudulent check and the Zelle payment, as I was coerced into making the transfer under false pretenses. 

Given that I was a victim of fraud, I am asking for the negative balance resulting from this incident to be reversed. The transaction was made without my informed consent, and I believe that I should not bear the financial burden of this scam. 

Despite my efforts to resolve this with Zelle, I have encountered difficulty in obtaining assistance. I would greatly appreciate your help in escalating the matter to ensure that I am reimbursed for the {$1000.00} sent to the fraudulent recipient. 

Please let me know if any further information or documentation is required to facilitate the resolution process. I am looking forward to your prompt attention to this matter, as it has caused significant distress and financial hardship. 

Thank you for your time and understanding. I am eager to work with you to resolve this issue and restore my account to good standing.
