Consumer complaint received 2023-06-23 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes — 
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I need to be able to place a credit freeze on my credit accounts to prevent unauthorized loans from being opened in my name, in no small part due to Equifax 's incompetence in allowing a breach of substantially all of their consumer data in XXXX. 

Equifax has been required by law to provide a free credit freeze service since XXXX. 

Since XXXX, I have attempted multiple times to open an account on the 'myEquifax ' website to be able to place a credit freeze. Every time I have logged into this account, I have received an HTTP 500 error from their web application, indicating an unexpected error in the software running on their web server. Competent software development operations consider a server returning an HTTP 500 to be an issue to be resolved quickly and task engineers with preventing them from recurring, as unexpected errors may lead to security problems and prevent them from fulfilling their legal obligations to customers, but Equifax appears not to run a competent software development organization or to care about customer experience. 

I have attempted at least three times to report this error so that I might gain access to an account to be able to freeze my credit, and have spent hours on the phone with Equifax customer service attempting to report this bug in their web application and seek a way to work around it. Equifax has never resolved this issue. I have never been able to freeze my credit with them. 

Their customer service personnel at one time insulted me as lacking initiative and thus being unable to get anywhere in life because I was unwilling to locate a fax machine to work around their continued incompetence in building and maintaining a web application.

Company: Westlake Services, LLC
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
In early XXXX, Westlake Financial updated their mobile app. This happened early in the month. Ever since, everytime I go to make my payment on the due date, the XXXX each month, they do not accept my payment. When this happens I receive anywhere from $ XXXX {$50.00} worth of late fees. The issue only occurs when paid on my due date, but not when there is a late fee attached to the payment. Speaking on the phone with them, they claim that their system voids my payment because it can not find my bank account, however, they always find it after applying extra fees. 

In XX/XX/XXXX I signed up for Automatic billing payments. After speaking with them on the phone today XX/XX/XXXX they claim that I am not on auto payments. Again clarifying to me that their records are not matching their mobile app. 

My XXXX payment was supposed to be automatically taken out on the XXXX, I checked the app the XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX and it showed it had submitted. They called me the XXXX and stated I was past due. 

I have screen shots from previous months that are time and date stamped on my phone showing that they are erasing payments from the system until I pay extra fees.
