Company: Early Warning Services, LLC

Complaint narrative:
I am to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles 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 CFPBs findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving user vulnerable to scams. The lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumers safety.

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 Experian, 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 XXXX inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Between XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year> I incurred over draft fees that resulted in my account going negative, I attempted to resolve this problem and my account was closed the following week and I was unsuccessful at reopening it. I am filing a complaint regarding multiple overdraft fees applied to my account. Despite having sufficient funds at the time the transactions were authorized, I was charged overdraft fees due to delays in the posting of charges and credits. 

This situation mirrors the recent findings by the CFPB regarding Navy Federals practices, where overdraft fees were assessed on transactions that settled with insufficient balances, even though funds were available when the transactions were initiated. 

I believe these practices are unfair and respectfully request an investigation into my account and the specific transactions in question. At the time I had also lost 50 % of my income due as a result of the pandemic but would have been able to bring my account back into the positive had it not been closed within the next week of me trying to correct it. 

I would like for my account to be restored so that I may continue being a member at navy federal credit union. As well as any over draft fees to be returned from the prior 12 months before my account closure.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Capital One regarding the deceptive practices related to their 360 " high yield interest '' savings accounts. Capital One misrepresented the 360 Savings account as having one of the nation 's highest interest rates, yet failed to notify accountholders about the superior rates offered by the 360 Performance Savings account. This deliberate obscurity and lack of transparency violated consumer trust and resulted in significant financial losses for many, breaching the Consumer Financial Protection Act and the Truth in Savings Act. I seek redress for the misleading practices and failure to fulfill their advertised promises

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I sent a dispute letter to experian pertaining unauthorized inquiries within my report and unfortunately they could not validate those inquiries. There were no factual documents provided to me to prove those inquiries such as contractual agreement etc. They also could not inform me of their method of validation of such inquiries. 


XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX GA XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Experian XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX Subject : Formal Dispute of Unauthorized Hard Inquiries Dear Experian, I am writing to formally dispute the following hard inquiries on my credit report : 1. XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  2. XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  I did not authorize these inquiries. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to an accurate credit report and proper investigation of disputes. 

It has come to my attention that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) recently filed a lawsuit against Experian for failing to adequately investigate consumer disputes and for providing inadequate responses regarding validation methods. I believe Experian failed to comply with its obligations in my case, as no explanation of the investigation process or validation method for these inquiries was provided. 

I demand that you : 1. Immediately delete the unauthorized hard inquiries from my credit report.

2. Provide me with details of your investigation process and your method of validation for these inquiries.

3. Confirm these changes in writing within 30 days as required by law. 

Failure to resolve this issue promptly may lead to further action, including filing a complaint with the CFPB or pursuing legal remedies. 

Attached are copies of my credit report and identification documents to assist in verifying my identity.
