Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, I am submitting this complaint regarding multiple closed student loan accounts that continue to appear on my credit report, despite being over 10 years old and having no late payments. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), most negative information, including closed accounts with no derogatory activity, should not be reported beyond 7 years from the date of final activity or delinquency. 

The following accounts are still being reported despite being closed, fully paid, and in some cases over XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX mos These accounts are closed, paid off, and show no late payments, yet they are still reflected in my credit file, affecting my score and public perception. I have tried disputing with the credit bureaus, but the items were not removed. 

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate this matter and compel the relevant credit reporting agencies and data furnishers to remove these outdated accounts immediately in accordance with the FCRA ( Section 605 ( a ) ). 

Thank you for your time and assistance in resolving this issue.

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 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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with rewards from credit card
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: RI

Complaint narrative:
Bank of America recently added a feature called XXXX XXXX XXXX to their credit cards. It allows customers to split payments over time, but it charges a monthly fee of 1.72 %, which adds up to more than 20 % annually. This fee is charged in place of interest, but the result is effectively the same or worse especially for financially vulnerable customers. 

The plan is marketed as flexible and interest-saving, but that is misleading. It increases the minimum payment and adds recurring fees with little transparency. Customers looking for help or flexibility end up paying more. Theres no real benefit compared to a normal credit card or a 0 % APR offer. 

I believe this is a predatory and deceptive product, disguised as a helpful tool. Bank of America should be required to disclose the true cost ( as an APR equivalent ), and the CFPB should review whether this practice is ethical or fair to consumers.

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally demand your agency 's compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) in connection with the ongoing mishandling of my credit file. Despite multiple dispute attempts, you have failed to remove fraudulent accounts that do not belong to me and continue to report unverifiable information. This conduct is in direct violation of federal law and my consumer rights.

The accounts listed below were opened fraudulently as a result of identity theft. I have submitted several dispute letters requesting their removal, yet you have responded with vague and non-substantive explanations that do not meet the legal standards required under the FCRA.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are legally obligated to perform a meaningful investigation upon receipt of a consumer dispute. Your continued reliance on form responses without providing original validation of the debts in question constitutes noncompliance.

Moreover, 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) mandates that consumer reporting agencies ensure the highest possible level of accuracy in reporting. Your agencys failure to take corrective action demonstrates a reckless disregard of these obligations.

You are hereby given 30 days from the date of this letter to provide the following : 1. Full and original verification documents from the creditors proving the validity of the accounts in questionnot generic responses ; 2. A comprehensive outline of the investigation performed, detailing each step taken ; 3. The names, job titles, and contact details of the individuals responsible for reviewing and responding to my dispute ; 4. Written confirmation that all unverifiable information has been permanently deleted from my credit file pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ).

If you fail to respond adequately within the timeframe stated, I will pursue immediate legal action. This includes filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and the California State Attorney General. I will also proceed with litigation under 15 U.S.C. 1681n for willful noncompliance, which allows for the recovery of statutory damages, punitive damages, attorney fees, and costs. 
The following accounts are fraudulent, and I have already received confirmation from the relevant banks that they should not be associated with my credit profile. Please review and remove these accounts immediately, and provide supporting verification if you continue to report them : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
