Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
I discovered that PayPal gave vendors unauthorized access to my bank account. I spoke with a representative from PayPal on XX/XX/22 when I looked at my bank account and saw XXXX debits in XXXX to my checking account made by Paypal that I did not aurthorize. The amounts ranged from {$20.00} to {$100.00}. The Paypal representative explained that I signed XXXX merchant agreements allowing PayPal to debit from my bank account to pay these vendors, which PayPal describes as " preauthorized payments. '' I never signed any agreements nor have I agreed to " preauthorized payments '' to any vendors. I believe this is a scam in which Paypal is complicit, to essentially steal money from my bank account. The representative from Paypal reviewed with me and removed the 75 vendors who were given merchant agreaments and preauthorized access to my bank account. I have necer heard of or done business with the majority of these vendors. Of the 75 vendors, I do business with five of them, but payments are made through my XXXX XXXX account and I did not preauthorize any payments directly from my bank account. The PayPal representative directed me to the section of my Pay Pal account that contained the list of these vendors. She agreed that " Paypal 's practices are not transparent. ''

Complaint narrative:
Equifax is in direct violation of my CONSUMER RIGHTS! On numerous occasion I've spoken with representatives to have inaccurate accounts removed. I spoke with XXXX and she informed me the items would be removed with 24 hours. That was not the case so I called back and spoke with XXXX who reassured me the itms would be removed in 48 hours. To date the inaccurate accounts are still on my Consumer File. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX closed Credit Card acct ending in XXXX. 
In light of recent investigations brought upon Equifax I find that my consumer file is being irresponsibly tampered with. I've made several attempts to remind their company of your duty pursuant to XXXX5 usc 1681. It appears they're intentionally and willfully being neglectful in remedying my affairs. 15 usc 1681 e ( b ) assures that I am due, promised accuracy in my report based on Federal Law. 15 usc 1681 c ( 2 ) BLOCK of information resulting from Identity theft is my RIGHT AS A CONSUMER.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I have been paying down my Credit Card balances, but this decrease in the card balance is not reported in a timely fashion, as opposed to ANY increase in a card balance, which seems to be updated in a matter of days. I have paid down thousands of dollars in Credit Card debt, but my percentage of use never changes. This is critically impacting my ability to get credit to add available credit, which would lower this percentage of use as I pay these balances down. 
This is clearly both negligence in regard to the consumer, while at the same time offering only cards with high annual fees which finically benefits the Credit Reporting agencies, besides implying that paying to upgrade to a service offered by the reporting agency would assist in increasing the consumer 's credit rating.
