Company: FISERV FINXACT CORE
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I received my XXXX issued Money Network debit card but have been unable to activate it despite multiple attempts via phone and online. I updated my XXXX payment method to direct deposit, but a payment was already issued to the Money Network card before the change took effect. I can not access that payment. 

When I call Money Network, I only reach an automated system that confirms my direct deposit information, then hangs up, there is no way to speak to a live representative. Ive attempted to activate the card through the website using multiple devices and browsers, and I keep receiving error messages. I also attempted to link my bank to transfer the funds, and that failed too. 

XXXX has confirmed the funds were sent to Money Network and said I need to resolve it with them, but Money Network is completely unresponsive. I can not access funds that are legally mine and critical for my financial well being. I am asking for intervention to access my unemployment payment or escalate my complaint to someone who can unlock the funds

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I used PayPal to receive donations through a connected service ( Ko-Fi ) after confirming my identity, phone number, and debit card. These funds were previously released to me under the same conditions. 

Despite this, PayPal has now placed a hold on my funds and refuses to release them unless I go through a new verification process including confirming a debit card that is already active and linked in their system. 

I have provided all documentation and proof. They acknowledged my card is linked, but now require a {$1.00} charge to verify it again, even though I currently can not access any money because the funds they are holding are the only funds I have. 

This is predatory, inconsistent, and appears intentionally obstructive. They are collecting fees from these transactions and refusing to release critical donations that were intended to help me and my child during a time of financial hardship. 

I have saved screenshots and transcripts of the chat support interaction for this complaint.

After submitting requested docs they still denied to release my hold on my account. They told me it would take them a month to release my funds back to me because the merchant hadnt. I spoke with the merchant who vehemently denied this. I feel like they are holding onto funds that should be released to gain interest. No company takes a XXXX to release a hotel hold in 2025. I spoke with them and nothing has changed the charge is still pending.

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Creditor : Progressive ( Original Lender ) Collection Agency : XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Assigned : XX/XX/year> Balance : {$380.00} ( original & current ) Status ( varies by bureau ) : Equifax : Unpaid Consumer disputes this account information TransUnion : Collection account Account info disputed by consumer Experian : Credit grantor can not locate consumer Account info disputed by consumer I am filing this complaint regarding an inaccurate and potentially unlawful collection entry reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX on behalf of XXXX XXXX. This account appears on all three  of my credit reports with an assigned date of XX/XX/year> and an original balance of {$380.00}. 

I have disputed this debt multiple times, requesting full validation. The information remains unresolved and unverifiable. Despite that, it continues to be reported as a valid collection account. This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

Specific issues : The collector failed to provide proper debt validation. 

The account status is inconsistent ( e.g., credit grantor can not locate consumer ). 

The continued reporting of disputed and unvalidated information violates FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), 611 ( a ) ( 5 ), and FDCPA 807 ( 8 ).

I am requesting immediate and permanent deletion of this account from all consumer credit reports ( Equifax, TransUnion, Experian ), as it is inaccurate, unverifiable, and damaging to my credit profile.

Potential FCRA & FDCPA Violations FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Furnishing inaccurate information If the debt has been disputed but remains reported without proper validation, this applies.

FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) Failure to remove unverifiable info after a dispute If they can not prove XXXX owes the debt, it should be removed after the dispute. 

FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 3 ) Duty to report accounts as disputed when under investigation They did note the dispute, but there may still be procedural violations.

FDCPA 807 ( 8 ) False representation of the legal status of the debt If they reported it as unpaid or " collection '' when they had no legal standing, this applies.

FDCPA 809 ( b ) Failure to validate the debt after dispute and continued collection/reporting They must stop reporting and collecting if they can not validate after a proper dispute request. 

Credit grantor can not locate consumer may indicate data inconsistency or identity error.

This weakens their claim and may justify removal under FCRAs data accuracy requirement.

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I hope this message finds you well. 
I am writing to formally address a matter that has significant implications regarding my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, I wish to bring to your attention violations pertaining to my privacy and confidentiality as a consumer, as protected under federal law.

As per the provisions outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly under 15 U.S.C. 1681, it is established that individuals possess a fundamental right to privacy. Furthermore, 15 U.S.C. 1681, Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) explicitly states that a consumer reporting agency is prohibited from furnishing a consumers credit report or account information without obtaining prior written authorization from the consumer in question. 
In light of these regulations, I must highlight that XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year>, {$4300.00}, XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> {$8600.00} has unlawfully accessed and disseminated my personal account information without my express consent. This action constitutes a direct violation of my federally protected rights, specifically regarding my right to privacy and the requirement for written authorization before the release of my consumer information. 
I kindly request that you investigate this matter promptly and take the necessary corrective actions to rectify this situation. I would appreciate a written response detailing the steps that will be taken to address this violation and ensure compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act moving forward. 
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.
