Complaint narrative:
I had a Zelle account for many years, in XXXX of 2023 I was scammed by someone selling a golf cart. They wanted a deposit through Zelle, I sent the deposit of {$500.00} and I immediately received a notification from the person that the deposit was declined, I figured it was my bank, so I sent it again and received the same notification from them and I tried one more time ( different platform ) before I looked into my bank account and the {$1000.00} was not there and had been paid to them through Zelle. It was a Sunday so I had to wait until the following day to go to my bank, I was relieved that my bank returned my money ( I filed a dispute ) but what I didn't know is they were returning it with the idea that Zelle would return the money to them, Zelle declined to return the money and blocked me from ever having an account again. My bank took the money back and I have never been able to get it back.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Experian for failing to correct multiple critical inaccuracies on my credit report, despite my repeated efforts over the past four months.

Experian is currently reporting two different Social Security numbers on my credit file. This is a serious and unacceptable error that violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and puts me at risk for identity confusion and potential fraud. Additionally, there are multiple incorrect variations of my name listed, further indicating that my file may be merged with another individuals information.

I have submitted disputes to Experian by phone and in writing, provided documentation to verify my identity and correct information, and have followed all proper procedures. However, Experian has failed to provide any meaningful response or correction, which is a clear violation of my rights under federal credit reporting laws.

For reference, the Experian report number is XXXX. 

Their continued inaction and negligence have negatively impacted my creditworthiness, caused undue stress, and raised serious privacy concerns. 

I respectfully request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate this matter and take appropriate action against Experian. I also request that all incorrect Social Security numbers and name variations be removed from my file, and that I receive written confirmation once these corrections are made. 

Please let me know if further documentation is needed.

Company: Mercury Financial Intermediate LLC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I was offered the option to split my monthly payment for XXXX into XXXX equal payments of {$19.00}. My due date for my XXXX bill was XX/XX/year>. When I selected the option, the following payment dates were provided : XX/XX/year> ; XX/XX/year> ; XX/XX/year> ; and XX/XX/year>. Ive made all of the split payments on time. I did not select the dates, the dates were provided by the app. At no point did the app notify me or provide a warning of any kind that my XXXX would be reported as late after choosing the split-payment option. The credit card company told me that my XXXX payment was reported as over 30 days late because the last payment on XX/XX/year> occurred after the XX/XX/year> due date for my XXXX payment. I did not choose the payment dates and received no warning or notification indicating that my XXXX payment would be reported 30 days late because of the final split payment occurring on XX/XX/year>. Had I received notice, I couldve made an earlier payment to avoid the late payment issue. I have made multiple calls and complaints with the company to get the issue resolved and the company affirmed that they did not include any notice or warning but will not change update or change their reporting of the late payment. After my complaints, the company has now included notice of dates past the payment due date but refuses to correct the reporting of my account.

Complaint narrative:
My account 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.

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
