Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a dispute involving a Buy Now, Pay Later loan through Affirm for a XXXX XXXX bag purchased via XXXX XXXX  ( Ref. XXXX ). 

I returned the item to XXXX for authentication after raising concerns about its authenticity. XXXX refused to issue a refund and instead claimed their internal team verified the item. I requested documentation of this authentication but they failed to provide it. 

When the item was returned to me, I discovered that it was not the same bag I originally sent back. The returned bag has no XXXX XXXX stamp, no branding, no date code, and is clearly a completely different and counterfeit item. I have timestamped photo and video evidence of both the original bag and the one they returned. 

This situation now involves mishandling of returned merchandise, misrepresentation of authentication, and shipping of an entirely different product. 

Affirm has been notified and is currently investigating, but as of this filing, the loan remains active and unresolved. I am requesting that the loan be canceled and Affirm take action against XXXX  XXXX  for mishandling this transaction. 

I am prepared to submit all documentation and photographic evidence upon request.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over XXXX days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within XXXX  days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than XXXX  days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute fraudulent information I have found on my credit report, pursuant to XXXX XXXX. XXXX, and to request that such information be blocked or removed immediately. I am enclosing a copy of my FTC Identity Theft Report ( FTC REPORT NUMBER : XXXX ) as evidence of my claim. 
Pursuant to XXXX XXXX. XXXX, when a consumer files a report of identity theft, credit reporting agencies are required to block any information identified by the consumer as being the product of such theft within XXXX ( XXXX ) business days. 
The following information on my credit report is the result of identity theft and must be frozen : XXXX - XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX - XXXX Pursuant to XXXX U.S.C. XXXX, I respectfully request that this account be immediately frozen from my credit report. This freeze must remain in effect for a period of XXXX year, after which I may request an extension. During this time, no information may be reported. 
I have contacted TRANSUNION multiple times to report these accounts, but I have not received a clear or definitive solution to help me resolve this situation. This situation is severely impacting me, as I am trying to purchase a new home for my children and obtain financial tools to support my financial growth. Having these negative accounts on my credit report has blocked all my opportunities and is causing me personal and financial harm. These accounts have already been removed and were not verified by other credit bureaus, so I don't understand why this agency continues to claim these accounts belong to me. 
I have requested copies of the contracts related to these accounts from the reporting company, and after more than 60 days, I have not received a response. I respectfully request that you help me by removing these accounts immediately.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: OK

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.
