Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law. ''

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
A civil bank levy was served on Chase Bank on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX, accepted by XXXX XXXX, a person authorized to accept service. Under California Code of Civil Procedure 704.220 ( a ), Chase was required to automatically leave a protected minimum exemption in the account. For XXXX, this protected minimum for a family of XXXX in Region XXXX is {$2100.00} per debtor per financial institution. Chase did not leave the required exempt amount and instead left {$0.00}, which is a direct statutory violation. 

Chase waited XXXX days after service and then processed the levy on XX/XX/XXXX, removing {$3600.00} and immediately pushing multiple business checking accounts negative. All resulting negative balances were caused solely by Chases failure to apply the exemption, not by any customer-initiated transactions. 

Beginning XX/XX/XXXX, Chase continued to approve transactions while the account was forced negative, triggering daily {$34.00} overdraft fees across multiple accounts. These overdraft fees now exceed {$1100.00}, all caused by the banks failure to leave the exempt amount required by law. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, Chase internally re-posted or re-dated the levy, causing an additional negative balance and another set of overdraft fees. The Sheriffs records confirm only one levy payment of {$3600.00}, processed on XX/XX/XXXX, meaning the XX/XX/XXXX posting was an internal Chase error that caused additional financial harm. 

Because Chase left my accounts negative for weeks, I was unable to pay my mortgage, medical bills, credit card payments, tuition, and vendor invoices, resulting in approximately {$500.00} in external late fees and more than {$1200.00} per week in lost business income because I could not restock inventory. 

I contacted Chase repeatedly beginning XX/XX/XXXX through secure messages, the XXXX department, and Chases XXXX XXXX. I received conflicting responses, a partial {$100.00} fee refund, and no explanation for the errors. Chase has not explained why it failed to apply the exempt minimum, why the levy was delayed, why it was re-posted, or why overdraft fees were applied to balances made negative by a levy-processing error. 

I am requesting CFPB assistance to require Chase to : Reverse all overdraft fees caused by the levy Restore account balances to the correct protected amount Reimburse consequential damages ( late fees + lost revenue ) Provide a complete explanation of how the levy was processed Correct the violations of CCP 704.220 ( a ), CCP 700.160, Cal. Fin. Code 405, and Regulation E error-resolution duties

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am writing to delete the following information on my credit report. The following items are listed in the report. I am a victim of identity theft. The charges made on the account were not mine. The items need to be deleted as they are inaccurate items on my credit report. The theft of my identity was reported to the federal Trade Commission. Also, I have an enclosed copy of the Federal Trade Commission id-entity theft affidavit. Please find it in your best interest to delete the items. 


I would like to emphasize the following legal obligations under the FCRA : Under 1681b, a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only under specific circumstances, including " In response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue such an order, or a subpoena issued in connection with proceedings before a Federal grand jury. '' This provision strictly limits when my consumer report can be furnished, and I do not believe any of these circumstances apply in this case. 


Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), credit bureaus must conduct a " reasonable reinvestigation '' upon receiving notice of a consumer dispute. I am formally notifying you of this dispute, and I expect a thorough and reasonable reinvestigation of all items I've identified.

15 U.S. Code 1681b outlines the permissible purposes of consumer reports, including conditions for furnishing and using consumer reports for employment purposes. I do not believe any of these permissible purposes apply to the disputed items on my report. 


15 U.S. Code $ 1681c-2 a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any. 
information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than XXXX business days after the date of receipt. 

15 U.S. Code 1681 Section B ( i ) - Requirements relating to reinsertion of previously deleted material - If a consumer reporting agency removes information from someone's credit file based on the requirements in the preceding section ( A ), the agency can not re-add or reinsert that previously deleted information back into the person 's file unless the entity that originally provided that information certifies that it is complete and accurate.
