Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, Equifax consistently responds wirhin 24 hrs stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation. These are the accounts I marked as inaccurate XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  credit card.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's 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 that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's 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.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Experian is reporting me late on my report. I reached out the company ( XXXX ) numerous times to rectify the problem. After numerous attempts, XXXX finally sent me a letter stating they could not verify I was ever late and would send the corrections to the credit reporting agencies. To make sure the issue was corrected, I filed a dispute against XXXX hoping to hurry along the process. To my dismay, Experian sent back a letter stating the information about the late pays were correct. I filed another dispute and this time i attached the letter XXXX provided me. The representative read the letter and said she would file it again on my behalf because clearly the items should be deleted. Once again, Experian returned to share, the items were correct. 

I am disappointed because Experian removed and blocked items on my credit report and then later put the items back on my report ( XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). I hope this complaint will finally get the incorrect items removed and blocked by my credit report. As with them, I am attaching the letter from XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX refuse to make the changes even the times they reported me late during the Covid 19. I think they are being unfair. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX said, by law, they must report accurate information to the credit reporting agencies and this is correct. But the law allows them make adjustments for extraordinary circumstances like the world pandemic that affected everyone around the world. 

Please help.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I discovered an unauthorized and inaccurate collection account on my credit report, reported by XXXX  and reflected on my report with TRANSUNION. I do not recognize this account, and I believe it has been included on my credit report without proper authorization. 
I submitted a formal dispute with TRANSUNION, requesting verification and removal of the account in accordance with my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Sections 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ), and 623 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ), which require that only accurate and verifiable information be included on my report. Additionally, I cited Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ), which mandates that all access to my credit report must have a permissible purpose. 
Despite my dispute, TRANSUNION responded by marking the account as " verified '' or " updated '' without providing any documentation or evidence supporting the accounts validity. I believe this is a violation of my rights under the FCRA, as credit bureaus are required to conduct a reasonable and thorough investigation, and failure to do so can result in liability, as upheld by case law like Cushman v. Trans Union Corp. 
Additionally, the actions of TRANSUNION and XXXX may constitute a violation of the Unfair, Deceptive, or Abusive Acts or Practices ( UDAAP ) standards. By retaining unverifiable information on my report, they are potentially engaging in deceptive or unfair practices. This inaccurate information has negatively impacted my credit score, affecting my financial standing and access to credit.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligations under the Federal Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systematic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishes, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.
