Company: CITIBANK, N.A.

Complaint narrative:
This is a follow-up complaint related to my previous CFPB case against Citibank. 

Since filing the original complaint, I have collected additional evidence showing that Citibank representatives repeatedly refused escalation, recalled or deleted chat messages, and stopped responding after reading my messages. 

These actions demonstrate a systemic pattern of avoiding accountability and a failure to provide fair and accessible customer support. 

I have screenshots documenting each incident. 
Please merge this with my prior case and require a written response from Citibanks Executive Response Unit.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 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.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am requesting a review and reconsideration of late payments reported by Chase Bank on my business account, which is being reported on my personal credit profile. 

The account reported late payments for XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/year> ( 60 days total ). These occurred during a verified hardship period in which I was placed on XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

I contacted Chase Executive Relations to request a goodwill adjustment, but they declined, stating they are legally required to report accurate information. I understand under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) that lenders must report accurate data, but they are not required to report negative information they have the discretion to delete or suppress data as a goodwill gesture when hardship is verified. 

Since the account is a XXXX account and not a personal consumer loan, I am requesting that Chase remove or suppress the reporting of this business account from my personal credit file, or alternatively, remove the late payments as a one-time goodwill adjustment given my unique circumstances. 

I have documentation to support my hardship, including a XXXX verification letter and XXXX XXXX I have since brought the account fully current and maintained on-time payments. 

This inaccurate and overly punitive reporting has significantly harmed my personal credit, even though it relates to a business account and occurred during a temporary and verified hardship. I respectfully ask that the CFPB request Chases regulatory relations team to review this matter and provide a resolution.

Company: Ability Recovery Services, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I was involved in a car accident on XX/XX/year>XXXX  at which the other party was a fault. I obtained an attorney and reached a settlement with the other party 's insurance company. The medical bills were paid out of the final settlement amount. The medical billing company for the doctor that offered her services when I visited the emergency room for the accident never replied to the attorney 's office to advise of the bill due so my attorney closed my claim. Now, more than three years later, I wake up one morning to emails from my creditors letting me know that my credit rating had decreased significantly. I contacted the collection agency that is collecting and asked them why they were reporting this until now. I never received any letters or anything asking for this bill. I believe this is unfair as I have tried my best to maintain a positive credit history. I have not had any derogatory remarks on my credit report in the last 10+ years. I have had excellent to exceptional credit ratings in all these past years. My payment history is exceptional as you can view my credit report. I would like to have this negative reporting removed from my history. I never received any correspondence from the collection agency requesting payment.

According to 15 U.S. Code 6802, it is illegal for banks and institutions to report any data to third party companies without proper consent. Also, according to FCRA section 605b, it is illegal to report information on my credit report without my permission. Bounce AI has done this and I would like this account deleted and removed from my credit report. I also have proof of this. I also have proof that I requested Proof of Ownership of the Debt, the Original Credit Agreement, an Itemized List of Charges, Account Statements, Verification of Debt Amount, and the Statute of Limitations on this debt. They were not able to provide this nor chain of custody.

Complaint narrative:
Complaint Summary : In XX/XX/year>, I financed over {$16000.00} through Service Finance Company ( SFC ) for the purchase and installation of an HVAC system by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a XXXX in XXXX XXXX XXXX, Arkansas. XXXX XXXX was referred to me by XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

Service Finance purchased my retail installment contract ( RIC ) after the XXXX  installation. However, XXXX XXXX has since gone out of business and is unreachable by phone or in person, leaving me without warranty coverage, contractor support, or the ability to address problems with the system. 

Despite this, SFC continues to require payments under the RIC and has refused to provide relief, stating they are not responsible for XXXX XXXX business closure or failure to provide service. 

Consumer Protection Concerns : Under the FTC Holder Rule ( 16 C.F.R. 433.2 ), any holder of a consumer credit contract is subject to all claims and defenses which the debtor could assert against the seller. 
XXXX XXXX has failed to honor its contractual obligations, and therefore I have claims and defenses that extend to SFC as the holder of the RIC. 

By refusing to acknowledge these obligations and closing my complaint, SFC is ignoring my rights under federal consumer protection law.
