Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
The disputed account, reported by JPMCB CARD, appears on my credit report with late payments marked as 30, 60, and 90 days. 

In XX/XX/year>, I submitted a formal dispute directly to the credit bureau requesting documentary verification of the account. To date, I have not received a satisfactory response or direct documentation from the original creditor. 

In addition, this same account shows clear inconsistencies across different credit bureaus, such as discrepancies in payment dates, amounts, monthly reporting history, and overall account details. This violates the accuracy requirements under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 1681e ).

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this formal complaint against XXXX XXXX for their failure to respond to my written request regarding an alleged charge-off account being reported to the credit bureaus.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
Subject : CFPB Complaint Regarding Equifax Blocking Dispute of XXXX XXXX Account ( Acct : XXXX ) To the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau : I am submitting this formal complaint against Equifax for blocking my ability to dispute a tradeline related to XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

The account has been inactive since my last payment on XX/XX/XXXX, yet Equifax continues to report it as 120+ days past due as recently as XX/XX/XXXX. This is misleading and does not reflect the fact that the account has had no payment, collection activity, or resolution in over two years. 

I originally intended to dispute the reported balance based on discrepancies in the account ledger provided by XXXX XXXX. The ledger shows improper application of insurance proceeds, principal inflation, and continued interest charges post-default all of which raise concerns about the accuracy of the reported balance. 

However, Equifaxs online system is now blocking me from submitting any dispute at all. When I try to initiate a dispute, I receive a message stating : Dispute not available. This directly violates my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 611 ), which gives consumers the right to challenge inaccurate or misleading information in their credit reports at any time. 

Because I can not exercise my right to dispute this inaccurate tradeline, I am requesting that the CFPB investigate this matter and compel Equifax to remove the XXXX XXXX account from my credit file. The continued reporting is not only misleading it is unchallengeable due to their own systems refusal to accept a dispute, leaving me with no viable remedy. 

I am including a screenshot of the blocked dispute interface and relevant documents ( e.g., the account ledger ) to support this complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Product: Student loan — Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
My private student loan was placed into forbearance by Citizens Bank without my knowledge, consent, or any prior notice. I discovered this unauthorized change when I logged into my loan account in XX/XX/XXXX to adjust my auto-debit settings. I also did not receive a billing statement for XX/XX/XXXX. 

When I contacted the loan servicer, I was told the forbearance was applied due to a bankruptcy XXXX  related to a case filed in XX/XX/XXXX. However, neither I nor my former cosigner has ever filed for bankruptcy. The account appears to have been altered based on false or misapplied legal information, and I was never notified of the change as required by law. 

This appears to be a serious servicing error and a material breach of contract. It may also constitute violations of the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) and Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), as well as unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices ( UDAAP ) under federal law. 

I have formally disputed this issue with the servicer and demanded a full explanation and cancellation of the loan due to their misconduct. I am requesting the CFPB to intervene and ensure that : The forbearance is immediately removed The full loan balance is canceled due to breach and mishandling Any credit reporting tied to the erroneous status is corrected I will also file a complaint with the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs if necessary. Please investigate and help ensure accountability in this matter.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information being reported on my consumer credit report by XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX  for XXXX XXXX ( Account # XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  ) * * [ Specifically, XXXX  is reporting the account as " Pays account as agreed '' with a " 30 days past due '' delinquency. XXXX  is reporting " Paid account/was 30 days past due '' with a " 30-day delinquent '' status. TransUnion is reporting " Paid or paying as agreed '' but does not indicate a payment status. ] These reports are inaccurate and need to be updated to reflect " Paid on time '' and " Paid as agreed '' for all accounts. These entries are inconsistent, contradictory, and inaccurate. I am requesting that the status of this account be updated to reflect " Paid on time '' or " Current, '' and the worst delinquency status be updated accordingly to ensure accuracy in reporting. Upon review, I have discovered that these entries violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( CRA ), particularly Section 611, which requires consumer reporting agencies to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information contained in consumer reports. Furthermore, the entries were reported without my written authorization, in direct violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ), which mandates that consumer information can not be accessed or used without the explicit written consent of the consumer. I expect a detailed response outlining the findings of your investigation, including documentation of the original written instructions from me, with my wet signature, authorizing the reporting of this information, and an explanation of the legitimate purpose for reporting these late payments. Additionally, I request a thorough investigation into these disputed late payments as per Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) of the FCRA and written confirmation of the investigation 's completion, along with details of any actions taken to rectify this matter. 

Lastly, I request documentation to verify compliance with 15 U.S. Code 1666b, which mandates that periodic statements must be delivered at least 21 days before the payment due date, including the periodic statement and corresponding tracking number to confirm timely delivery. I have attached proof of the inaccuracies and highlighted them in red for your convenience. I trust that you will handle this matter promptly and in compliance with all applicable federal regulations. I look forward to receiving a response within 30 days of the date of this letter. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) for failing to respond to my prior dispute regarding the improper re-aging of a charged-off account. The account continues to report as charged off every month, which artificially updates the delinquency and makes the account appear more recent than it is. This is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

This is not only misleading and damaging to my credit profile, but it also prevents the account from aging off my report as legally required. I previously disputed this issue, and XXXX  has already removed the account, acknowledging the error. However, the same account remains on TransUnion and Equifax, and XXXX has not responded to my concerns or taken steps to correct the reporting.
