Complaint narrative:
I opened an XXXX XXXX credit card through Bank of America an booked a flight in XX/XX/year>. There was an issue with the XXXX as it left early and I was unable to board.

I receive notification from XXXX around the same time that my credit was approved. I closed the credit card with a XXXX balance and thought the issue was resolved. XXXX XXXX later I learn that Bank of America had reapplied the charge and filed a non payment notice with experian. There was no notification or explanation whatsoever from Bank of America. During this XXXX XXXX period they have been secretly charging me interest and penalties. I called Bank of America on XX/XX/year> and the issue remains unresolved after XXXX hours and XXXX different customer service reps. I would like to file a complaint about Bank of America 's business practices as they are slamming customers and offering no resolution.

I am writing to you regarding a violation of my privacy and confidentiality rights, protected under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681b ( 2 ) ).

The following accounts have accessed or reported on my credit profile without my consent, which constitutes a clear violation of this provision : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # : XXXX XXXX. Reporting of Obsolete Information Violation of 15 USC 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes, which antedates the report by more than seven years.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I was the victim of a sophisticated phone scam in which an individual impersonated a Navy Federal Credit Union agent. The caller used Navy Federals real phone number ( spoofed ), followed standard verification procedures, and had detailed knowledge of my account and recent transactions, making the deception nearly indistinguishable from a legitimate call. The scammer also knew my full debit card number, expiration date, CVV, name, date of birth, address, last four of my Social Security number, and other personal details. This led me to believe I was speaking with an actual bank representative. As a result, fraudulent transactions occurred that were not detected or flagged by the bank. I am requesting stronger fraud-detection measures and improved consumer notifications for suspicious or out-of-state activity, as this impersonation mirrored official Navy Federal procedures and could easily deceive other members.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I submitted a formal complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) against [ Insert Bureau Name ] for inaccurate and unverifiable information being reported on my credit file. 

On XX/XX/year>, the company acknowledged the complaint and stated they were working on the issue. 

Then, on XX/XX/year>, I received a physical letter from the company stating that they had verified all disputed information without providing any documentation or explanation of the verification process, in direct violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ) which requires them to disclose the method of verification.

Subsequently, they responded via the CFPB portal that they were unable to respond due to lack of information. This is both misleading and contradictory, as they previously claimed to have verified the information and had mailed me a letter stating such. 

Their responses are inconsistent and do not comply with federal consumer protection laws. They are failing to verify the disputed information, refusing to provide evidence, and continuing to report data that is inaccurate, unverifiable, and harmful to my credit profile. This is willful noncompliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and should result in the immediate deletion of all disputed items.

Company: SUN LOAN COMPANY INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
A collection account is being reported on my credit file that has not been properly validated. I exercised my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) by requesting validation of the alleged debt. The furnisher failed to provide any legitimate documentation proving that the debt is mine, that the amount is accurate, or that they have the legal authority to collect it. 
Despite the lack of verification, this account continues to appear on my credit report, which constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requiring only accurate and verifiable information to be reported. The continued reporting of an unvalidated account is inaccurate and misleading.
