Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I am requesting the immediate removal of the unauthorized transactions and incorrect information on my credit report. These errors stem from a data breach that compromised my personal and financial details, a situation that was beyond my control. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues, I am still dealing with the consequences of reporting failures that should have been corrected long ago. 

The fact that these incorrect and unauthorized entries remain on my report, even with clear evidence of a data breach, is completely unacceptable. This mishandling of my information is damaging my credit score, threatening my financial security, and preventing me from accessing important opportunities. I will no longer tolerate this negligence. 

I insist that you conduct an immediate investigation and remove these errors permanently. Any further delays, inaction, or refusal to comply will be seen as a direct violation of my consumer rights. I will pursue all legal remedies available under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and any other relevant laws to hold your company accountable.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
These entries are inaccurate and do not accurately represent my payment history. I have made multiple requests for an investigation and correction of these discrepancies, yet no meaningful action has been taken. Despite submitting all required documentation and following up repeatedly, these errors remain unresolved. This ongoing inaccuracy has caused significant financial hardship and emotional distress. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a credit report that is fair, accurate, and complete. This includes the prompt correction or deletion of any information found to be inaccurate or unverifiable. I am therefore requesting that you immediately investigate and update or remove these erroneous late payment entries. Continued failure to correct these inaccuracies constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law. I expect your prompt attention and a written confirmation of resolution as soon as possible.

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 formally disputing several inaccuracies currently appearing on my credit report, specifically unauthorized and inaccurate accounts and credit inquiries that I did not initiate or approve. These entries represent a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly 15 U.S. Code 1681i, which requires a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates that information reported must be accurate to the maximum extent possible. In addition, I am disputing a potentially misreported late payment. According to 15 U.S.C. 1666b, creditors must allow at least 21 days between the statement date and the payment due date before classifying a payment as late. Based on my records, this standard may not have been met, or the payment was submitted on time and inaccurately reported as delinquent.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report. 

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and and inaccurate information. 

Moreover, under the Fair Credit Billing Act, my right to privacy has been violated, and this breach infringes upon my rights as outlined in The Privacy Act of XXXX. Removing the inaccurate and fraudulent information from my credit report will help restore my privacy and prevent further violations.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because XXXX XXXX is reporting an inaccurate and unverified collection account from XXXX on my credit report with TransUnion. I have previously requested proper validation for this debt, but the company has failed to provide the necessary legal documents. Specifically, they have not produced any verified proof that the debt is mine, that they legally own the right to collect it, or a clear, itemized breakdown of the charges. The current credit report entry is also incomplete and contains inaccurate information regarding dates and contact details. Because XXXX has not complied with their legal obligation to fully verify this debt, their continued reporting is harmful and violates my rights as a consumer. I am requesting that the CFPB ensure this company either immediately deletes this unverified collection entry from my TransUnion file, or provides complete, verified, and legally sufficient documentation to validate the debt and corrects all reported inaccuracies immediately.

Issue: Managing an account — Cashing a check
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, Wells Fargo improperly reversed a U.S. Treasury check deposited into my joint account with my XXXX son, XXXX XXXX. The amount of the Treasury check was {$27000.00}. Wells Fargo made {$2500.00} immediately available, which included {$650.00} transferred to me and {$28.00} used to open a savings account. 

Without any notice, written communication, or explanation, Wells Fargo reversed the entire deposit and forced my sons portion of the account into a negative balance of {$620.00}. This occurred despite the fact that the funds were already made available and visible on the mobile app. 

When I visited the XXXXXX/XX/XXXXthe manager called back office and told me the check was considered suspicious because my son is " young '' and lacks account history. The manager told me that maybe if I bring documents showing where the check came from, back office might release the funds. This is inappropriate, not required under Reg CC, and raised red flags of XXXX profiling. My son is a XXXXXX/XX/XXXX male, and we felt targeted. 

Wells Fargo never provided any written notice of a hold, a reason for the reversal, or a new availability date. This violates Regulation CC, FDIC guidelines, OCC rules, and Wells Fargos own Deposit Account Agreement. A U.S. Treasury check is one of the most verifiable forms of payment. 

The treatment we received appears discriminatory and caused emotional distress and financial harm. I request immediate correction, restoration of funds, removal of negative balance, and an investigation into the discriminatory behavior. 


Requested relief from CFPB : Restore the {$2500.00} made available Remove the {$620.00} negative balance Provide written explanation for the reversal Investigate discriminatory conduct Ensure no negative reporting on the account
