Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: K STREET FINANCE, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair 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 XXXX, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where XXXX has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as XXXXXXXX XXXX inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

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 within 24 hours 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, Equifaxs actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. & & 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPBs recent administrative proceeding ( File No. 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.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
The Citi website is not functioning as promised and as designed. It will not allow electronic access to transaction. The website worked properly in the past, and my accounts with other banks do not have this deficiency, so I believe the problem is the result of some change Citi has made. I asked repeatedly for the problem to be corrected. I talked to at least ten people and countless robots. No agent knew how to fix the problem, so I was told the problem would be escalated and I was given case number XXXX. I called again today and could only reach a robot which said the wait for an agent would be over XXXX minutes. I gave up and filed this complaint, hoping to get the attention of some responsible person at Citi

I am writing to file a complaint again Navy Federal Credit Union regarding multiple overdraft fees have incurred.
