Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: LendingUSA
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting a complaint concerning LENDINGUSA ( Account Number : XXXX ) due to inaccurate reporting on my credit report. Despite several disputes, the incorrect information has not been corrected or removed, significantly harming my credit score and misleading potential lenders about my financial history. I have contacted LENDINGUSA and the credit bureaus multiple times, yet no action has been taken to address these errors. The continued reporting of false information is causing me financial distress and limiting my ability to secure credit.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

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.

Complaint narrative:
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.

Complaint narrative:
I am stressed and displeased that I see so many fraudulent accounts on my credit report. This is really damaging my credit worthiness. I am trying to buy a home for me and my family and this is not fair. I have tried several times to get these accounts removed. Let alone, my information was in a XXXX & XXXX breach some months ago so I thought you all would protect my consumer report. I do not feel that my information is being protected. This is a defamation to my character and this is a federal law violation. According to, 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 4 ) my consumer report fairness and privacy has been violated. I am upset!! I am depending on the banking system and credit reporting agency to promote my privacy and fairness and they have not. This is not right and going against my federal consumer rights. This is causing emotional and mental stress as of now. Also it is illegal these companies should NOT be furnisher peoples information to 3rd party companies so this is illegal, neglect and fraud. I have already reported this to the local police department and Federal Trade Commission. These companies and the credit bureaus can be can get sued for these damages. This is negatively effecting my livelihood and putting me in a bad space. I feel your database is inaccurate and I am filing ligation against this if these items arent removed immediately.

Company: Blackhawk Network Holdings Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I have a prepaid visa card issued through a business partner based on your sales activities. You redeem points and they add money to your card. This is a visa card with an expiration date of XXXX and above it says in bold " Funds Do Not Expire '. I would check the balance of the card and specifically after a reload and my last known balance was {$4500.00}. I mark changes on the card. I contacted XXXX to request a replacement card and because I could not log in to my account. They advised they have no information, the data is no longer there, and my funds are gone as per some agreement. I am not sure why an agreement would differ from what is written on the card. The end result was they would not help me. I contacted the issuing partner and they have moved to a different platform and are no longer offering assistance with these cards. I believe because they are not problem free. I saved the card to use for large purchases and oddly any time I went to use the card it was declined, they said they were worried about fraud, and that it would be frozen for XXXX hours. You can imagine most retailers are not waiting XXXX hours for payment. I again decide today to use the card as I have a large purchase looming and realized it was expired. I have received replacement cards before and did not realize that this time would be an issue. I am hoping you can assist as {$4500.00} is a significant amount of money, and I was taxed not he earning to boot.

My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than XXXX days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered XXXX  days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.
