Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Ive recently discovered several late payment notations on my credit report that are completely false, and I want to make it clear that I will not tolerate these inaccuracies being used to misjudge my financial character. These harmful entries are dragging down my credit score, affecting my access to opportunities, and putting unnecessary strain on my mental and emotional health. Some of these alleged late payments were in fact made on time, while others may stem from clerical mistakes or internal processing delays that were never communicated to me. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that every piece of data on a consumer report be factually accurate and verifiable by original documentation. That means if these late payment entries can not be backed up with real, dated billing statements or signed agreements, they should not be reported at all. I am demanding that these entries be immediately corrected or removed, depending on what the documentation proves. If the credit reporting agencies or furnishers continue to ignore this matter, I will interpret that as a willful and deliberate violation of federal lawand respond accordingly. I deserve better, and I will fight until this is made right.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Creditor : Capital One Auto finance. 
Current Reporting : Account charged off with a past due balance of {$14000.00}. 
Settlement amount : {$7300.00}. 
Settlement amount Paid : {$7300.00}. 

I entered into a settlement agreement with Capital One and paid the settlement in full in the amount of {$7300.00}. The account should be reported as Settled Paid in full for less than full balance with a {$0.00} balance, not a past-due balance. My account reflects a {$14000.00} balance. This information is inaccurate FCRA ( Fair Credit Reporting Act ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq.

Requires credit reporting to be accurate and complete.

If a debt is settled and paid, showing a past-due balance is false reporting.

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) prohibits furnishing information to a credit bureau that is known to be inaccurate.

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: T.S. Holdings
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing a debt reported by IQ Data XXXX. This account was placed on my credit report without proper notice or communication to me. In accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA, 15 U.S.C. 1532 ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1632 ), I requested full validation of this debt, including but not limited to the original signed contract, account history, and legal documentation establishing that IQ Data XXXX has the right to collect. 

To date, IQ Data XXXX has failed to provide any such documentation. Reporting and attempting to collect on an unvalidated debt is a violation of federal law, and consumers have the right to receive proof of any alleged obligation before it is reported or pursued. 

Furthermore, I was officially released from the residence in question as of XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  and was not living in the state of New Mexico due to XXXX XXXX XXXX further proving I am not legally responsible for this debt. As a member of the United States XXXX XXXX, I am also protected under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act ( SCRA ), which provides additional safeguards against inaccurate and abusive reporting and collection practices. The continued reporting of this unverified debt has caused harm to my credit standing and directly interferes with my ability to maintain stability for myself and my family. 

Because the company has refused to comply with federal law, this debt remains unverified and inaccurate. I am requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau require IQ Data XXXX to immediately cease collection efforts and remove this account from my credit report. Continued noncompliance will constitute ongoing violations of the FDCPA, FCRA, SCRA, and my rights under federal statutes 1532 and 1632, for which I am prepared to pursue all available remedies. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  I do not have an account number with IQ Data XXXX. This dispute concerns the account they reported on my XXXX  credit report for {$3800.00}, opened XX/XX/XXXX, tied to XXXX XXXX XXXX  NM But I have attached a screenshot for your records. So you know which account I am referring to

I have called Mohela multiple times and have not had this resolved. I made payments towards my loan in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  ( {$1000.00} ), XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  ( {$500.00} ), XX/XX/XXXX ( {$2000.00} ) and XX/XX/XXXX ( {$2000.00} ) and they are not applying my payments after 120 days while allowing interest to continue to build. Even when I have spoke to customer support they say they can see the payments but haven't applied them all. My loan should reflect almost {$2000.00} less than it currently does. Its been well over the 120 day waiting period and still nothing.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding a serious and damaging incident involving the mishandling of a wire transfer by Wells Fargo Bank. This situation has not only resulted in a significant financial loss but has also caused extensive emotional distress, reputational damage, and a breach of trust that I find both unacceptable and deeply concerning. 

On [ insert date ], a wire transfer in the amount of {$46000.00} was sent from XXXX in XXXX, TX to my Wells Fargo personal account. Despite proper execution on the sending institutions end, Wells Fargo failed to deposit these funds into my account, withheld access to the funds without justification, and most egregiously misrepresented the status of the wire during direct communication with both myself and the sending bank during a joint conference call. 

Wells Fargo not only failed to notify me of any issues with the incoming wire but also failed to engage in timely or transparent communication with XXXX  to resolve the matter. Instead, representatives from Wells Fargo provided misleading information, effectively concealing the existence and status of the wire transfer. This conduct appears to demonstrate willful negligence or intent to mislead, which is both unethical and possibly unlawful.

A few weeks ago, I submitted dispute letters directly to all three credit bureaus regarding inaccurate items on my credit report. These inaccuracies are clear violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and the bureaus are legally obligated to investigate and correct them. I have received responses suggesting I am using a third-party service, which is false. I am the sole author and sender of these disputes, and I have not enlisted the help of any credit repair company or outside entity.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Personal information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I have never legally gone by these personal information nor do not currently reside at the listed residence. The inclusion of inaccurate aliases and unrelated or outdated addresses not only violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) which requires credit reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy but also creates a serious risk of identity confusion and impairs my ability to obtain credit under accurate and fair conditions. The presence of such erroneous personal information also raises concerns of data mishandling, especially in light of recent national data breaches. Despite previous attempts to have this information corrected, Bureaus might have failed to remove the incorrect aliases and address entries, even though I have never used these names and do not reside at the listed locations.
