Their source of information, when contacted directly contradict their information. They have me with 4 different entries for marriage, when only been married once. My wife, appear single, and one time using my last name which has never being the case. They list a government agency : Nevada Division of Public Health as source, when I contact the agency they indicate they do not share information with LexisNexis. Insurance information is wrong. All documentation has been provided yet, it hasn't been removed or corrected. Email, telephone numbers and addresses appear even though the providers do not operate in the area when I have always lived. Then number of errors are uncountable causing anguish, waste of time, spending money at XXXX XXXX XXXX on Social Security. It is abusive. This have impacted my wife and I for years in higher premiums with the insurance company and our insurance coverage. LexisNexis do not verify their source of information and does not cross reference in case or husband and wife creating a disparaging set of records of husband and wife. Then refusing not to correct it.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), as outlined in 15 USC 1681 section 602, establishes the importance of consumer reporting agencies like XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX conducting their substantial responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for consumer privacy. Under 15 USC 6801, it is mandated that financial institutions maintain an ongoing duty to honor customer privacy and secure sensitive personal information. As such, XXXX XXXX, categorized as a financial institution, is bound by these provisions. Specifically, 15 USC 1681 section 604 allows consumer reports to be furnished solely with the consumer 's written permission. However, I have not provided XXXX XXXX or the mentioned consumer reporting agencies with my consent, in any form, to share my information. Furthermore, under 15 USC 6802, a financial institution is prohibited from disclosing personal information to unrelated third parties without informing the consumer of their right to prevent such disclosure. I was not made aware of this right by XXXXXXXX XXXX Moreover, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) restricts consumer reporting agencies from including certain negative information older than seven years in their reports. Any reporting of such outdated adverse information by these agencies without my consent is a violation of the FCRA. Additionally, 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) prohibits the dissemination of information by any entity if there is knowledge or reasonable belief that the information is incorrect. Consumer reporting agencies are required by 15 U.S. Code 1681e to establish adequate procedures to prevent violations of section 1681c and ensure that consumer reports are only used for authorized purposes. Failure to maintain these procedures by XXXX, Transunion and XXXX would be non-compliant with the FCRA. Lastly, as per 12 CFR 1016.7, I am entitled to opt out of such reporting services at any time, which I am hereby exercising.

Company: I.C. System, Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I have reviewed a copy of my consumer report recently and noticed there are several debt collection agencies reporting a debt that they have not validated and are reporting without my written or oral permission. There is not contract nor agreement between myself and these companies. Their unfair reporting practices have caused me significant damage recently. These errors and unlawful practices need to be corrected and all misleading and unlawful information on my report needs to be removed immediately per federal laws ( Fair Debt Collection Practice Act ) : 15 USC 1692d ( 4 ) The advertisement for sale of any debt to coerce payment of the debt. 15 USC 1692f ( 1 ) The collection of any amount ( including any interest, fee, charge, or expense incidental to the principal obligation ) unless such amount is expressly authorized by the agreement creating the debt or permitted by law. 15 USC 1692g ( a ) I received no notifications via mail about the validity of this debt 15 USC 1692j ( a ) It is unlawful to design, compile, and furnish any form knowing that such form would be used to create the false belief in a consumer that a person other than the creditor of such consumer is participating in the collection of or in an attempt to collect a debt such consumer allegedly owes such creditor, when in fact such person is not so participating. If the company in question can not provide an original, " wet-ink '' signed contract or agreement between me, XXXX XXXX , the consumer, and their company named as Creditor, the debt is invalid and therefor unlawfully permitted to be collected upon and most certainly can not be furnished on my consumer report.

Company: HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK, THE
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I have never been late on a payment and always have money in my account. 
There is a Pay Now button to pay your credit card and there is a Pay Now details Button.

For what ever reason i choose the detail button and saw an icon of my credit card with a ballance an a Pay Now button so I put in the amount I wanted to pay and hit the Pay now.

Turns out that the Pay Now is a Transfer Of Funds action and my Payment that should have went to the my Credit Card went back into my Bank Account.

I was not aware that I did not make the Credit Card Payment, I got no email, no notification, no phone call that the payment was not made.

I took screen shots of the Bug on the Website showing the Credit Card,
my payment and how it did not match up to the right account. I have filed a Dispute with the Credit Companies and talked with the bank. The bank said that it was unfortunate that website was not working properly and Refunded my Late Fee but my credit dropped XXXX Points. The Banks Argument is that there are other ways to Pay, so if that was not working than why did I not pay with another option, My stand is that because the Money did transfer there was no way I knew that the Credit Card was not Paid.? No email letting me know I was late, No phone call. it was not till I saw the XXXX point drop on my credit that I that the credit Card in the Month of XXXX of XXXX was not paid. Please help. 

I printed a copy of the WebPage and showed everyone the Miss Match on the Hunnington Bank webpage. No one even bothered to want to look at the webiste where the problem is and how it happened. Its a bug and it can be repeated on a desktop on there webpage.
