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: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Experian 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 Experian 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 Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''

Company: GLA Collection Company, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Against GLA COLLECTIONS for Improper Collection Account Reporting Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am filing a formal complaint against GLA COLLECTIONS regarding the reporting of a collection account that I believe is being improperly reported in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

Details of the Disputed Collection Account : Credit Bureau Involved : [ XXXX, XXXX, & XXXX ] Collection Agency Name : GLA COLLECTIONS Amount Reported : [ {$560.00}, {$560.00}, {$1000.00}, {$1700.00} ] I never had an original agreement with this third-party collection agency, and I have not been provided any legal proof that they have the right to collect or report this debt under the law. 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 requires that information reported to credit bureaus be verified, accurate, and fairyet this account remains on my report without proper validation.

I have attempted to dispute this with the credit bureau, but they have failed to provide me with adequate proof that this collection agency has the legal right to collect or report this debt. Since the credit bureau and collection agency have not met the legal standard of verification, I request that the CFPB intervene and require the immediate removal of this account from my credit report. 


I am formally requesting that this collection account be deleted from my credit report due to improper reporting. Additionally, I ask that the CFPB investigate this matter and hold GLA COLLECTIONS accountable for violating my consumer rights. 


Thank you for your time and assistance in resolving this matter.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I disputed an account ( Account Number : XXXX ) with LVNV Funding LLC aka Resurgent Capital Services because I believe it is inaccurate and unverifiable. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I formally requested debt validation, including proof of the original agreement, a complete chain of assignment, and a detailed breakdown of the balance. Instead of providing the necessary documentation, the company responded by labeling my dispute as frivolous and refusing to conduct an investigation. This violates FCRA 611 ( a ), which gives consumers the right to dispute inaccurate information, and FDCPA 809 ( b ), which requires debt collectors to verify request. Their failure to investigate means they are potentially reporting inaccurate, incomplete, or unverified information, which is damaging to my financial standing.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against Navy Federal Credit Union regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds when transactions were authorized, I was charged fees due to lagged posting of charges and credits. This issue aligns with the recent CFPB findings against Navy Federal for similar practices, where transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initially available funds. I believe these practices are unfair and request an investigation into my account transactions.
