Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute the inaccurate information on my credit report acquired by XXXX. This letter is for the purpose to invoke my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15USC 1681i, which obligates you to provide me with the procedures you used to verify the information on my credit report. If you can not verify the accuracy of the disputed items, they must be deleted from my credit report right away. Additionally, under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( 15 USC 6802 ) I have an essential right to privacy regarding my financial information. Also. 15 USC 1681 ( 4 ) under the FCRA highlights the importance of maintaining the accuracy and privacy of consumer credit information.


No permissible purpose, as shown in 15 USC 1681b ( 2 ), has been established for XXXX  to maintain a credit report on my behalf.

XXXX  has neither my permission nor a valid permissible purpose to supply a credit report containing my personal information. The absence of such permissible purpose makes the presence of this information a violation of my privacy rights.

Additionally, 18 USC 1028a addresses identity theft and its associated penalties, highlighting that identity theft is a serious crime.

The unauthorized acquisition and use of my personal information is a criminal act and violates principles of privacy and consumer protection.

Under 15 USC 1681c-2, credit reporting agencies are required to block information that results from identity theft. The transactions in question were not conducted by me. If my information has been compromised due to identity theft, I am expecting XXXX  to take all necessary action to correct and block this information as ordered by law.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX  was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be 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. EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 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! Update the late payments from my consumer reports.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I had a XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX credit card that was recently transferred to Barclays. Before the transfer, my account had unauthorized transactions that caused my balance to go negative by about {$14000.00}.

Since the transfer, Barclays refuses to let me file chargebacks or fraud disputes, saying the charges happened when XXXX still managed the account. XXXX also refuses to help, saying they no longer own or service the account.

As a result, I have unauthorized charges that I can not dispute with either bank, leaving me with a large fraudulent balance.

I also requested for financial hardship from Barclays after realizing that I wont be able to make disputes on the fraudulent transactions and was not approved after applying twice and contacting support.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Closing an account — Funds not received from closed account
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
This is a formal complaint regarding Chases continued failure to verify the ownership of our business account forXXXX XXXX, despite the fact that all required formation and ownership documents were properly submitted and approved at the time of account opening. 

Despite providing XXXX XXXX formation and ownership documents during the account opening, ChasesKYC verification process still fails to confirm that my co-founder and I are the lawful owners of XXXX XXXX after account closure to be able to release the funds that we had. 

This has resulted in thewrongful withholding of our business funds, which is causing serious operational disruption to our company. 

We were informed that, according to Chases internal system, the registered signer of the account doesnot appear as either of us owners, but rather asthe XXXX XXXX ( official New York newspaper publicatior ), which is a mandatory step to go through to open a company in NY.

Chase asked us to call the NY state Secretary Office for corporations to list us as owner. We called and they said that they would never do that as it is to protect owners, and they never ask owner names to be on the listing, or can do it. They simply publish official publications such as the newspaper that we did with XXXX XXXX. This totally contradicts what Chase has recommended. In addition, they mentioned that many other companies go through the same issues as us with Chase. 

All of this directly contradicts the official documentation we submitted when the account was opened, which clearly identifies us as the companys owners and authorized members. 

We are now completely stuck with no access to our funds, despite being the verified owners of the company. Its frustrating that when opening our bank account with all required info, everything is fine when depositing funds, but when we try to get them back, now we have issues with identifications.

Timeline of actions taken : The account was opened with all required documentation proving ownership ( LLC formation papers, operating agreement, XXXX XXXX, and government-issued IDs ). 
* Account was closed Over the pastmonth, we have contactedChase support more than XXXX times by phoneandvisited a branch in personto resolve the matter. XXXX levels of escalations have happened with no results on the phone. 
- We have contacted the NY state XXXX XXXX for corporations today and are now completely stuck.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding serious inaccuracies that have been reported on my consumer credit file in violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692.

The following items are being reported inaccurately and are causing ongoing harm to my creditworthiness, financial opportunities, and reputation : Wrong Address Reporting XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX This address is incorrect and does not belong to me. The continued reporting of this address constitutes inaccurate and misleading information, which violates the FCRA requirement that consumer reporting agencies maintain maximum possible accuracy in consumer credit files. 

XXXX XXXXXXXX Charge-Off ( Account # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/year> Balance Owed : {$500.00} Status : Reported as Charge-Off This tradeline is being reported inaccurately. XXXX XXXX has not provided proper validation of this account, nor have they complied with their obligation to ensure the information furnished is accurate, complete, and verifiable under FCRA 623. The negative reporting of a charge-off without validation is misleading, unfairly damaging, and must be investigated.

These errors are materially affecting my credit profile and violating my rights under federal law. I am requesting the CFPB to : Investigate the reporting of the wrong address and ensure it is permanently removed from all of my credit reports.

Investigate XXXX XXXX reporting practices regarding this account, require them to provide full validation, and remove the charge-off if they can not prove its accuracy and legitimacy.

Hold the furnishers and credit reporting agencies accountable for their failure to ensure fair and accurate reporting as mandated by law.

I have attempted to resolve these issues directly, but the reporting continues, leaving me with no option other than to escalate my complaint to your office.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.
