Company: Block, Inc.
State: IL

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 effective measures to prevent and address fraud on their very own platform in which I became a victim, while leaving my account vulnerable and unprotected. Futhermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress for these violations. I closed my account in XXXX of 2023, I could not believe how this company carried on with such violations.

On XX/XX/year>, SoFi locked my account. No fraud was indicated, but my account remains restricted to this day. When I contact SoFi and request a written explanation for the restriction and an estimated resolution timeframe, they are unable to provide one.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Trouble using your card — Can't use card to make purchases
Company: FISERV FINXACT CORE
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am on XXXX XXXX  XXXX after undergoing XXXX XXXXXXXX. Whilst out of work I am collecting XXXX XXXX  XXXX payments. I am paid via a XXXX  card, this card was provided so I could use the card in the same manner as a debit card and make in store purchases or I can transfer the money from this card to my checking account to allow me to pay bills. 

I received the card about a week ago, and I activated the card per instructions provided. I am supposed to be able to transfer funds via the APP, or I can log into the XXXX site to move money etc. Well I attempted to use the APP to transfer money into my bank account so I could pay bills and it would not work, so I called the number they provided and contacted Money Network to troubleshoot the problem and the agent directed me to use my laptop, I asked him to stay on the phone while I tried that method and that too, did not work. I was very frustrated that MY money was on this card and I could not transfer the funds. The agent suggested that I go to an ATM and withdrawal money and then deposit into a bank. That is not acceptable. I bank with XXXX and they have no branches in our area as we conduct all of our banking online. Also, I am not yet driving from XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX, so how would he expect me to do this. The whole point of this message is that if my money is on a card and I am supposed to be able to obtain it through the APP or my laptop than I should work. 

The agent was not understanding, did not offer to find out what the root cause was all he said was, " I have seen this happen before '', like that was an acceptable responce with no effort to try and resolve this issue. NJ state XXXX should not be using a program that does not work. Ridiculous!

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the recent lawsuit filed by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) against Experian for failing to properly investigate consumer disputes. This issue has had a significant adverse impact on my credit file, resulting in substantial financial losses due to higher interest rates. 

In XX/XX/2024, I identified inaccuracies in my credit report. I promptly disputed these errors with Experian, providing all necessary documentation to support my claims. Despite my efforts, the disputed information remained unchanged on my credit report. 

The CFPBs lawsuit highlights that Experian has been conducting sham investigations into consumer disputes, failing to take sufficient steps to process and investigate these disputes properly. This negligence has led to the inclusion of incorrect information on credit reports, adversely affecting consumers financial standing. 

As a result of these unresolved inaccuracies, my credit score was significantly lowered, leading to higher interest rates on loans and credit products. Over the past several months, I estimate that I have incurred exponential additional costs due to these elevated interest rates.

I urge Experian to take immediate corrective action by thoroughly investigating my dispute and rectifying the inaccuracies in my credit report. Additionally, I request compensation for the financial losses I have suffered as a direct result of these reporting errors. 

Accurate credit reporting is essential for consumers to access fair financial opportunities. The failure to conduct proper dispute investigations undermines this principle and causes undue financial hardship. 

I look forward to your prompt response and resolution of this matter.
