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.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing inaccuracies on my credit report and requesting the immediate removal of specific accounts and items. These inaccuracies include unauthorized negative entries, incorrect addresses, and hard inquiries reported without my consent. These actions violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, which requires consumer reporting agencies to block or delete information reported without written consent. You have failed to ensure maximum possible accuracy, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). The reporting of unauthorized data also breaches 15 U.S.C. 1681b, which governs permissible purposes for obtaining and reporting consumer data. The inaccuracies have caused harm to my creditworthiness, and despite providing documentation, these errors remain uncorrected.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, I experienced a significant financial hardship that led to a charge-off with Navy Federal . Since that time, Ive made substantial strides in my financial health. My credit reports from all major bureaus are currently in excellent standing, with no delinquent accounts or collections. The charge-off no longer appears on my credit reports and is well beyond the XXXX reporting window. 

Recent Event : In [ insert date ], I applied for a Home Equity Line of Credit ( HELOC ) with Navy Federal Credit Union. Despite my strong credit profile, solid income, and financial stability, my application was denied. Upon inquiry, Navy Federal cited my prior charge-off from over a decade ago as the basis for denialdespite its absence from my credit reports and the fact that Ive held active and well-managed accounts with them since then. 

Concerns : Navy Federal appears to be using outdated internal records to justify a denial, raising concerns about fairness and potential discrimination. 

This decision seems inconsistent with industry norms, which typically consider only the XXXX reporting window and current creditworthiness. 

I believe this denial may be a form of continued punitive action for past hardship, rather than an objective assessment of my current financial situation. 

Actions Taken : Requested written explanation for denial ( in progress or completed ). 

Retained documentation of denial, credit scores, and account history. 

Seeking legal counsel to evaluate potential claims of unfair treatment or discrimination. 

Goal : To determine whether Navy Federals actions constitute unlawful discrimination or unjust business practices, and to pursue appropriate recourse if so.

Company public response: Company believes it acted appropriately as authorized by contract or law

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: KS

Complaint narrative:
. I am writing to formally request the removal of a fraudulent credit inquiry from my credit report. Upon reviewing my credit report, I identified an inquiry that was not authorized by me and appears to be the result of fraudulent activity. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Specifically, Section XXXX ( a ), a credit inquiry can only be made with my explicit consent or as part of a transaction or application that I initiated. Since this inquiry does not meet these criteria, it is clear that it was made without my authorization and is therefore fraudulent.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to you regarding a violation of my privacy and confidentiality rights, protected under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681b ( 2 ) ). Pursuant to 18 USC 8, I have identified the following accounts that have breached these legal provisions : Under 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( 2 ), a consumer reporting agency may only provide a consumers credit report with the consumers explicit written authorization. The following accounts have accessed or reported on my credit profile without my consent, which constitutes a clear violation of this provision : XXXX Account # : XXXX XXXX Account # : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/2024 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/2024 2. Reporting of Obsolete Information Violation of 15 USC 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes, which antedates the report by more than seven years.

3. Right to Privacy Section 602 ( A ) of the FCRA The FCRA, under Section 602 ( A ), clearly states that the consumer has a right to privacy with respect to the disclosure of their personal information. Any release or reporting of information without legal cause or consumer consent violates this right and must be addressed accordingly.

4. Inaccurate or Unverified Information 15 USC 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) Furthermore, under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), no person shall furnish information to a consumer reporting agency if that person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. According to 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ), once notified of such inaccuracy by the consumer, the furnisher has an obligation to either correct or remove the inaccurate data.

I hereby notify you that the information associated with the above referenced accounts is inaccurate, obsolete, or both.

Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan — Installment loan
Issue: Problem with the payoff process at the end of the loan — 
Company: Hanwha QCells USA Corp
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I acquired a loan from EnFin Corporation to purchase solar panels for my home. The loan repayment began in XX/XX/XXXX with a scheduled monthly payment of {$220.00}. In XX/XX/XXXX, I increased my monthly payment to {$240.00} to pay down the principal faster. However, upon reviewing my account, I discovered that none of my payments have been reducing the principal balance. Despite my efforts to pay extra toward the principal, the company claims I can not do so due to unspecified terms and conditions that I did not agree to. The solar panel company connected me with a third-party loan provider, who offered a deal involving the transfer of the tax benefits that EnFin Corporation holds . Additionally, I am not permitted to make additional payments toward the principal, which I believe is unfair and contrary to what I was led to believe at the time of purchase. The salesperson assured me I could pay extra to accelerate paying off the loan, but this has not been honored. 
I strongly believe that this predatory loan practice is unjust and unfair to responsible consumers like myself.
