Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the following negative items on my credit report : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> {$1800.00} XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XX/XX/year> {$2900.00} These entries remain unverified and questionable. Despite multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies properly investigated and resolved, no meaningful action has been taken. I have submitted all required documentation and followed up repeatedly, yet the errors persist. This ongoing lack of action has caused undue financial hardship and has significantly affected my well-being. The mental and emotional toll of dealing with these unresolved discrepancies has been overwhelming. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report, including the removal of unverifiable or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate steps to verify and rectify these items, as failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law.

I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries and inaccurate personal information made or reported without my knowledge or consent.

The creditors must provide detailed information on each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about!

Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
PHH mortgage failed to pay the taxes for my house from XXXX to XXXX  XXXX of XXXX. As a result, tax liens were issued and a letter was sent by an attorney trying to take my house. When I called PHH they were surprised and asked that I email the XXXX documents. They realized that the payments they were sending weren't going into the correct parcel. Took them a XXXX and a lawyer to realize this. They then sent a check to pay for the backed up taxes. The issue is that they are now charging me for the backed up taxes as if I wasn't making monthly payments into my escrow account for all those years. My question to them was why are you charging me this money when it was you that failed to make the proper payments. My monthly payment more than doubled because of this and trying to communicate with them is a nightmare, all I get is have patience. However in the meantime my payment went from XXXX to XXXX because of their carelessness.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year>, I requested a replacement credit card from Bank of America because my original cards chip was malfunctioning. The replacement card arrived already activated and had the same number and PIN. The card was stolen during delivery ( along with another credit card from XXXX XXXX ; since that was my first card from XXXX XXXX it wasnt activated. Person who stole it tried to spend from that card as well but it got marked as fraudulent immediately ). 

A few days later, I noticed multiple unauthorized transactions, including a {$1400.00} dinner at XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, and reported them as fraudulent. Bank of America temporarily credited me while they investigated. Recently, they reversed {$2300.00} of those credits, claiming the transactions were valid. 

I never made those purchases. I explained that the replacement card was never in my possession, and someone else used it fraudulently. Despite this, the bank closed the dispute without providing sufficient explanation or evidence. I am seeking help to reopen the investigation and reverse the charges.

Complaint narrative:
I am continually being called on the telephone by this agency over an alleged debt. I am requesting validation of this debt. This account has been reporting inaccurately. I wanted to dispute this account because of this and it was affecting my credit report. I am having problems with this unfair treatment. I am sure that I settled this account before because it was not mine. This account was taken care of with the original creditor and promised me to update it out of my report. Therefore, this account is unverifiable. This is an error that you need to look into, so please do your investigation on this and remove or delete this account from my credit report.

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.
