Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Complaint narrative:
I, XXXX XXXX XXXX, am filing this formal complaint against the unauthorized and fraudulent reporting of bankruptcy information on my credit reports by XXXX, Transunion and XXXX Unauthorized Reporting & Fraudulent Activity Bankruptcy courts DO NOT report or provide consumer bankruptcy information to credit bureaus. I have obtained and mailed certified letters from the bankruptcy courts confirming this fact. 
This is a clear violation of Rule 9037 and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681c ), which restricts the improper reporting of consumer information.

NO ENTITY had my permission to place bankruptcy information on my credit report. This is fraud and must be corrected immediately.

Failure to Provide Proper Verification I called today to dispute this directly, and I was given the runaround with no valid explanation or proof of authorization for this reporting.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), credit bureaus must properly investigate any disputed information. This has not been done.

Immediate Demands & Legal Action Warning I demand the immediate deletion of all bankruptcy-related information from my credit reports with XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion under FCRA 1681c .

If this is not corrected IMMEDIATELY, I am fully prepared to file a federal lawsuit for willful noncompliance under FCRA 1681n.

Final Notice I have already sent certified dispute letters regarding this matter. Failure to correct this issue will result in legal action and complaints with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX  ), and my State Attorney Generals Office.

REMOVE THIS BANKRUPTCY IMMEDIATELYIT NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE! 

Signed, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Bounced checks or returned payments
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
What Happened? 

On XX/XX/year>, I received an unauthorized certified check confirmation from Navy Federal Credit Union ( NFCU ), despite never requesting one. When I attempted to log in to my business account, I found that NFCU had closed my business account without any prior notice or my consent.

Upon contacting NFCU, I was informed that : 1. NFCU had sent notices only via an internal online portal ( no email notification ) and by mail to my XXXX XXXX XXXX which has known delivery issues. They also have our physical address on file, and our phone numbers. I was never contacted by email, phone, or any other direct method.

2. My business account was closed solely because I did not respond to these notices, despite the fact that I was never made aware of them.

3. NFCU unilaterally issued a certified check containing 100 % of my businesss capital and operating funds and mailed it to the same unreliable XXXX XXXX XXXX 
4. NFCU refuses to stop payment on the missing certified check and will not issue a wire transfer or alternative method of payment, forcing me to wait XXXX days before I can even begin the process of recovering my funds. 

Expected Consequences of NFCUs Actions : This is expected to cause a cascading failure of payments across my business, leading to returned transactions, overdrafts, and defaulted obligations.

1. All business operations have been immediately halted as my company has been stripped of its working capital.

2. Essential expenses, including my mortgage, utilities, payroll, and vendor payments, will be impacted, further compounding financial harm.

3. This has caused irreparable damage to my business and professional reputation, as clients, employees, and vendors now see my company as financially unreliable due to NFCUs reckless actions.

4. The situation has resulted in severe emotional distress, as I am left without access to my own business funds and am being told I must wait months to even begin to rectify this issue. 

Actions I Have Taken to Resolve the Issue : 1. I immediately contacted NFCU upon receiving the certified check confirmation.

2. I requested a stop payment and a wire transfer instead, but NFCU refused.

3. I have filed multiple XXXX complaints due to the ongoing, well-documented issues with mail delivery at my XXXX XXXX XXXX NFCU was made aware of this history but still chose to send my funds to a known unreliable location. 
4. NFCU has refused to take any responsibility for the financial and reputational damage caused by their actions and has offered no reasonable solution beyond forcing me to wait 90 days for a check I never requested.
