Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

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: Netspend Corporation
State: AR

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I submitted a dispute ( Claim ID XXXX ) with NetSpend/XXXX XXXX  . for multiple unauthorized transactions totaling {$2000.00}. These transactions included charges from XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/year> for {$20.00}, XXXX * XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/year> for {$20.00}, and numerous additional XXXX XXXX and XXXX  charges between XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>. Under federal Regulation E ( 12 CFR 1005.11 ( c ) ( 2 ) ( i ) ), NetSpend was required to post provisional credit by the 10th business day after filing if they could not provide definitive proof that each transaction was valid. 

On XX/XX/year> ( the 10th business day ), NetSpend closed my dispute without issuing any provisional credit and provided no documentation demonstrating authorization for those transactions. I called NetSpend customer service twice on XX/XX/XXXX, requested escalation to their Compliance Department, and explicitly cited Regulation E and the requirement to post provisional credit on day 10, but the representative refused to escalate or credit my account until I received an emaila promise they have not fulfilled. Because my dispute was closed without provisional credit by the regulatory deadline and without conclusive proof of authorization, NetSpend is in direct violation of Regulation E. I am requesting CFPB assistance to force NetSpend to immediately post the required provisional credit of {$2000.00} and to address this regulatory noncompliance.

Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, student loan accounts serviced by Nelnet and owned by the U.S. Department of Education were removed from my credit reports as resolved. In XX/XX/XXXX, these same accounts suddenly reappeared on my XXXX  credit file showing XXXX day delinquencies, despite no new borrowing or activity. This constitutes re-aging of debt, which violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), including sections 605 ( a ) and 623 ( a ) ( 5 ). 

I filed a dispute with XXXX, but they updatednot removedthe accounts. I also sent a debt validation request directly to Nelnet demanding documentation to justify the re-reporting. As of today, Nelnet has not responded or provided any records to support the renewed reporting. 

These inaccurate tradelines are severely harming my credit and preventing access to housing and financial services. I am requesting immediate deletion of these Nelnet accounts from all credit bureaus and a full investigation into the reporting and verification practices involved.

Complaint narrative:
Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me. I've tried to get clarification from the creditors, but they have blatantly refused to give it to me. I demand that the creditors act immediately and be transparent. The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file!

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported in to be removed. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
