Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I submitted a complaint to the credit bureaus over a month ago, yet the incorrect information on my report remains unchanged. I have not received any updates from the bureaus, aside from your notification indicating that the company has addressed my complaint. How can I be assured that they have thoroughly investigated the inaccuracies? What verification methods were utilized to assess the accounts? This situation is extremely frustrating. More than 30 days have passed since my complaint, and the disputed accounts are still not updated. If this persists, I will be compelled to pursue legal action due to the significant stress it has caused me. Additionally, I am worried about the security of my personal information, especially in light of the data breach involving XXXX, Experian, and XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

Company: MOHELA
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I was automatically placed on the XXXX plan last year ( previously on XXXX ). I consolidated my loans and was issued a " new loan '' in XX/XX/year>, and was on the XXXX plan. MOHELA failed to drop the interest off of my account after taking my monthly payment for several months as well as during periods of administrative forbearance, and when they transitioned my account to the new platform in XX/XX/year>, interest was capitalized on my account. To my knowledge, this is illegal, because prior to when the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX issued a preliminary injunction on XX/XX/year> to fully blocked the XXXX plan, all aspects of the XXXX plan were supposed to be upheld. So interest should not have been accruing or capitalized on my account prior to XX/XX/XXXX when I was making on-time payments under the XXXX plan. Additionally, during this current forced administrative forbearance period that I am in while waiting on a decision for the XXXX plan, there seems to be {$800.00} of outstanding interest on my account, but I was told this forced administrative forbearance would be an interest-free forbearance.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX around XXXX my phone was stolen while I was in XXXX XXXX 

On XXXX XXXX around XXXX I spent over an hour on the phone with Chase requesting to freeze my accounts to protect myself. At this point XXXX was already sent out of my checking account. I informed them that my phone was stolen, and I did not authorize that transaction. After disputing the charge and being told my accounts were frozen, I finally felt some relief. 

However, on XXXX around XXXX there was a wire for XXXX sent from my account to a XXXX bank account. I was traveling without a phone, so when I landed in XXXX I went to a branch to dispute the fraudulent wire and reset my online banking info. Since then, Chase has denied my claim and refused to refund or take responsibility for their incompetence and negligence. 

If my account was frozen on XXXX as I requested, and was told, this would not have happened. I have requested the recording of the phone call, but they said I need a lawyer to subpoena them.

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( XXXX ) 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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( XXXX ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
This letter serves as a formal dispute regarding the inaccurate and inconsistent reporting of the XXXX account with account number ending in XXXX. Upon review of my credit report, I have identified multiple discrepancies and possible violations of the XXXX XXXX reporting guidelines. These violations compromise the accuracy of my credit report and are in direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates the highest standards of accuracy in reporting consumer information. 
Specific XXXX XXXX Noncompliance Violations XXXX. Inconsistent Account Classification The account is reported under varying creditor types across bureaus : " Student Loans, '' " Miscellaneous Finance, '' and " Government Student Loans. '' The XXXX XXXX guidelines require consistent classification across all reporting agencies, especially for a federallybacked student loan.

2. Discrepancy in Dispute Status The " Dispute Status '' field inconsistently reports whether the account is in dispute.

Experian marks the account as " Account Disputed, '' while other bureaus do not. This inconsistency is mislead
ing and fails to comply with FCRA Section 611, which mandates clarity and uniformity across all reported information.

3. Inaccurate Creditor Remarks The remark Subscriber Reports Dispute Resolved - Consumer Disagrees is present on some reports, while similar but varying comments are seen on others. XXXX XXXX standards require uniform remarks if the same dispute status and resolution have been applied across bureaus. This inconsistency is confusing and does not meet XXXX XXXX guidelines. 
XXXX. Inaccurate Late Payment Status Reporting The report indicates " 90 Days Late 7 Times '' without providing specific months and years for each instance. The FCRA and XXXX XXXX guidelines require precise documentation of each late payment instance to ensure the consumer is accurately informed. The vague reporting of lateness without dates is an unacceptable practice and could result in consumer harm due to misinterpretation. 
Legal Basis for Dispute Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly Sections 611 and 623, credit bureaus and furnishers are required to ensure that all information is " complete and accurate. '' The inaccuracies noted in the XXXX account reporting constitute a clear violation of these requirements and demonstrate potential negligence in the handling of consumer information.
