Issue: Other transaction problem — 
Company: Block, Inc.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Cash App ( Block , Inc. ) due to inadequate customer service and unfair practices, which violate the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). Specifically, Cash App failed to take timely and effective measures to prevent and address fraud on their platform, leaving my account vulnerable and unprotected. Furthermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress for these violations.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: DC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding multiple overdraft fees applied to my account. These fees were assessed despite having sufficient funds available at the time the transactions were authorized.

However, due to delayed posting of charges and credits, I was unfairly charged overdraft fees.

This issue appears consistent with recent findings by the CFPB, which identified similar practices by Navy Federal Credit Union, where transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initially having adequate funds. I believe these practices are deceptive and unfair.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Tx, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX Subject : Request for Deletion of Unverifiable Account XXXX XXXX XXXX Charge-Off Dear TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX I am writing to formally request the removal of a {$17000.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX charge-off account from my credit report. This account was recently investigated and successfully disputed on my XXXX secondary credit report. Following their investigation, XXXX completed the process on XX/XX/XXXX, and the account was fully deleted from their records.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to ensure the accuracy, fairness, and full verification of all information on a consumers credit report. Since this account has been deleted from XXXX, this clearly indicates that the debt was deemed unverifiable. As such, you are also required to remove this account from my credit report to maintain compliance with consumer protection laws.

Per the FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ), any information that can not be verified must be promptly deleted. Additionally, failure to remove unverifiable information within the required 30-day timeframe may constitute a willful violation of federal law, subjecting your organization to legal action under 15 U.S. Code 1681n and 15 U.S. Code 1681o.

I request that you : 1. Verify the accuracy of the XXXX XXXX XXXX account on my credit report. 
2. Remove this account if it can not be fully verified within 30 days or less of this letter.

3. Provide me with a written confirmation of the deletion.

Please note that I will not hesitate to pursue my rights under federal law should this unverifiable account remain on my credit report beyond the allotted timeframe. This includes filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and taking legal action to seek damages for any continued violations of the FCRA.

For your convenience, I have attached supporting documentation, including the notice of deletion from XXXX, to assist you in your investigation.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your response within the legally required timeframe.

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPBs findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.
