Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liabilit
y against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
A third-party debt collector bought the debt, which was also collected/closed/charged off on the credit report. By law, this debt collection can not ask for debt payment. This is affecting my score negatively. The reporting of this account is incorrect as I still see a balance after the charge-off. I would like to urge the agency Phillips & Cohen Associates , Ltd. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, DE XXXX. Phone # XXXX. Email XXXX to reinvestigate and provide all the missing information. Please explain why there is a past due balance while the report shows it as a charge-off. I'm sure this is a violation for me.

State: WA

Complaint narrative:
# # # Detailed Explanation of Chase Bank Account Restrictions I deposited funds from a legal settlement into my Chase account. After the deposit, Chase verified my identity in person at a branch, and I was able to successfully withdraw {$400000.00} via cashier 's check, demonstrating that Chase had verified both my identity and the legitimacy of my funds. 

However, Chase is now arbitrarily blocking much smaller transactions from the same account, including : - A {$9000.00} wire transfer to my verified Coinbase account - A {$200.00} payment for legal services related to estate planning ( will and testament ) This situation is particularly concerning because : 1. Chase has already allowed me to move a much larger sum ( {$400000.00} ) via cashier 's check 2. The account has no holds 3. They've verified my identity in person at a branch 4. These are legitimate transactions for legal services and personal investment 5. The source of funds is fully documented ( legal settlement ) 6. Chase has provided no explanation for blocking these smaller transactions When I attempt these smaller transactions, Chase simply denies them without providing any clear reason or documentation explaining their basis for the denials. This appears to be arbitrary and inconsistent enforcement of unstated policies, particularly given their previous approval of a much larger transaction. 

I have attempted to resolve this by : 1. Visiting Chase in person to verify my identity 2. Providing documentation about the source of funds 3. Requesting explanations for the restrictions 4. Attempting to process legitimate transactions through proper channels Despite these efforts, Chase continues to block my access to my own funds for legitimate purposes while providing no explanation or pathway to resolution. This is preventing me from : - Accessing legal services for estate planning - Managing my personal investments- Conducting normal banking activities I am requesting that Chase : 1. Remove these arbitrary restrictions immediately 2. Process my pending legitimate transactions 3. Provide written documentation explaining their basis for these restrictions 4. Explain why they allowed a {$400000.00} transaction but are blocking much smaller ones
