Complaint narrative:
CB/Victoria Secret is unlawfully and illegally reporting derogatory information on my credit report without proper authorization for {$420.00}. I have never authorized or signed any legal contracts or applications with debt agency, nor have I provided them with any other form of identification that would permit them to legally report this information. CB/Victoria Secret has failed to provide a copy of any wet signed applications, which raises concerns about the legitimacy of their actions. This is not a credit transaction with this third-party debt agency and I will also be filing other federal and state complaints against CB/Victoria Secret . I need proof of my identity also. I have not given them the authority to access or report any information related to me pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires a permissible purpose for such actions. Their failure to comply with these legal requirements has caused harm to my credit standing. I request that the CFPB investigate this matter and ensure that the derogatory information is removed from my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to you as the holder of credit card account number XXXXXXXX XXXX # XXXX to report an issue negatively impacting my credit report that appears to be in violation of the provisions of 15 U.S. Code 1666b, as well as other relevant sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

According to 15 U.S. Code 1666b, creditors must send periodic statements, including all information required by section 1637 ( b ), at least 21 days before the payment due date. This requirement ensures that consumers have sufficient time to receive, review, and make necessary payments without being unfairly penalized for late payments.

Additionally, the FCRA, specifically sections 15 U.S. Code 1681i and 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, mandates that credit reporting agencies and information furnishers correct any inaccurate or incomplete information in credit reports and ensure the maximum accuracy of information contained in consumer files. 

I have identified that the statements for my credit card have not been delivered in compliance with these requirements, resulting in the appearance of late payments on my credit report. This non-compliance has adversely affected my credit score. 

I formally request that you investigate and correct any inaccurate information related to these late payments on my credit report. Below are the details of the affected payments : Date of reported late payment : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I would appreciate your prompt attention to this matter to rectify any errors in my credit report. I am willing to provide any additional documentation necessary for your investigation. 

I look forward to receiving written confirmation of the actions taken to correct this information and ensure compliance with the relevant regulations.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
It has come to my attention that the charge-off is being reported month after month on my payment history, which is incorrect. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), negative information such as a charge-off should only be reported once, corresponding to the date it was charged off. 
The FCRA requires that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of the information they report ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). Repeatedly reporting the charge-off each month results in a misleading and inaccurate credit report, which has significantly harmed my credit score. Additionally, the statute of limitations for reporting a charge-off is seven years from the date of the first delinquency that led to the charge-off ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 4 ) ). Continuously reporting this charge-off as a new event each month does not reset the statute of limitations and is improper. 
I request that you promptly investigate this account and correct the inaccurate information by removing the repeated entries of the charge-off from my payment history. Please update my credit report accordingly and provide me with confirmation of these corrections. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
This is my final notice regarding your ongoing noncompliance with federal credit reporting laws. I previously disputed the accuracy and legitimacy of several items on my credit report, yet your agency has failed to act in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 
Your violations include : Failure to validate the debt as required under 15 USC 1692g ( Section 809 ( b ) ).

Continuing communication after a certified cease-and-desist request, violating 15 USC 1692c ( Section 805 ( c ) ).

Harassment under 15 USC 1692d ( Section 806 ).

Recently, I received notice that your investigation was complete, but the disputed accounts remain on my credit report. These accounts are not only inaccurate but were never authorized by me. No valid contract exists, and I have not provided any written consent for the reporting of these accounts, as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681b. 

I demand that the following items be deleted immediately from my credit report :

Complaint narrative:
The late payment remarks and account status currently reflected on my credit report are incorrect and do not accurately represent the true history of this account. The account in question has been closed, and the reported late payments do not align with my actual payment history. These inaccuracies are negatively impacting my credit score and misrepresenting my financial behavior. I request a thorough review of the account details and the immediate removal of the incorrect late payment remarks and status from my credit report. Ensuring the accuracy of this information is critical to maintaining the integrity of my credit profile, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Please update my report to accurately reflect that the account was closed and remove the erroneous late payment information.

State: CA

Complaint narrative:
You received my dispute regarding some transactions and late payments that you and XXXX furnished to my consumer report and when I disputed these exclusions using the FCRA I received a response from you TRANSUNION, stating that the account was verified!!! Of course this puzzled me when I never asked you for verification I simply told you that I was aware of the laws you were breaking. for example, how can you validate a dispute regarding information that is excluded from the consumer report? The law says transactions are not apart of my consumer! So how can you validate a late payment? DO YOU STILL FALL UNDER THE FCRA LAWS? DO THEY KNOW YOU ARE WILFULLY VIOLATING THEY LAWS AND MY RIGHTS? OR DO YOU JUST NOT CARE? 

Further more lets take a look at 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments Acreditormay not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless thecreditorhas adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required bysection 1637 ( b ) of this titleis mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

I am requesting all information pursuant Rule 1002 on 15 USC 1666b and the procedure that was used to authenticate accuracy ; What reasonable procedure that you have adopted designed to ensure that each periodic statement including information required by section 1637b was mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

The only way for you to validate a late payment is to ensure that 15 USC 1666b was done in compliance XXXX compliance and FCRA compliance!! to the specifications of the law 15 USC 1666b! Further more this process must be certified by an agent that the information is accurate. Just because a creditor reports it to you don't forfeit your obligation to follow the law! 
I am requesting the Certification of accuracy and the agent/s that were involved in the certification process, that certified that the information is complete and accurate. 
Failure to provide this information clearly admits that proper steps and certification was not done in compliance with the law 15 USC 1666b, XXXX & TRANSUNION have fraudulently verified an account without a reasonable procedure as required by law.

Complaint narrative:
Equifax is practicing in blatant discrimination. I mailed the company my license and social security information, and they continue to lowball my score. I have asked Equifax to remove old mailing addresses from my report and they refused. I asked them to remove XXXX loan entries ( such as XXXX and XXXX XXXX ), and they refused. I have cleared up my credit with the other agencies, and Equifax admittedly had to remove a couple scores. Yet, my score with them is a meager XXXX, which is abysmal. Please get rid of Equifax. United States is the only country that has credit agencies like Equifax. I want Equifax to remove the things I asked them to remove and increase my creditors, or close its doors forever.
