Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX Email : XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  TransUnion LLC XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX Subject : Formal Request for Deletion of Inaccurate Account Information under FCRA XXXX XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate and misleading information on my credit report, as maintained by TransUnion, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 607 ( b ) and 611 ( a ) ( 5 ). The information in question pertains to the following account : Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX  [ Reported Balance : {$26000.00} Status : In Collections/Charge-off Date Closed : XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  Upon reviewing my credit report, I have identified several serious violations of the FCRAs requirements for accuracy and completeness : Late payments are continuously reported well after the account was closed and charged off in XX/XX/XXXX. This misrepresents the account history and violates FCRA 607 ( b ), which mandates maximum possible accuracy in consumer reporting.Improper Balance Reporting on a Charged-Off Account : The account remains listed with a balance of {$26000.00}, even though it was charged off over a year ago. If the debt was sold or transferred, the original creditor must report a {$0.00} balance per FCRA guidance.Utilization Reporting Inaccuracy : The account reflects 104 % credit utilization on a closed account. This is misleading and not reflective of my current financial obligations.Redundant or Improper Dispute Remarks : The remarks include repetitive statements such as Dispute resolved subscriber disagrees, which may not align with proper formatting and suggests the dispute was not properly resolved or reflected. 
Due to the above-stated inaccuracies and reporting violations, I am requesting the immediate deletion of this XXXX XXXX account from my credit file, as allowed under FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) when unverifiable or inaccurate information is found. 
Please conduct a full reinvestigation, provide the method of verification used, and confirm the results in writing. If this can not be fully verified or corrected, the account must be deleted under federal law. 
Please respond within the required 30-day window under federal law. I expect a written response outlining the results of your investigation and the steps taken.

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Experian for failing to properly investigate and verify the accuracy of accounts I have formally disputed under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically sections 1681i and 1681s-2 ( b ). Despite multiple disputes, Experian continues to report the following accounts without providing proper validation or removing the inaccurate data : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Experian has ignored its duty to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of these disputed accounts and has not provided any supporting documentation or verification from the original creditors. I have been disputing these accounts to for years and they have yet to supply me proof. These accounts have already been deleted from my XXXX  report, yet Experian continues to report them, causing serious harm to my credit score and financial standing. 

Given that the CFPB has sued Experian in the past for similar violations, I am asking XXXX XXXXXXXX to investigate this matter and ensure Experian complies with the law by either validating these accounts with proper documentation or permanently deleting them from my credit file.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am updating a late payment that is currently being reported on my credit report as " open '' or unresolved. This entry is inaccurate and misleading. I have either already resolved the payment, or I was never late as claimed. The continued reporting of this item as open and delinquent is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. This misreporting has negatively impacted my credit score and may hinder my ability to obtain credit or employment. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, as well as a correction or deletion of the inaccurate late payment record if it can not be verified.

Complaint narrative:
I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries and inaccurate personal information made or reported without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry. 

Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about! I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>XXXX  I placed a to-go order from a vendor named " XXXX XXXX and XXXX '' in XXXX MI . The check was XXXX. When I got my statement the total charge was {$80.00}. After filing a dispute, Capital one never sent an email notification or alert online regarding the status, as I am registered as paperless. When I called they indicated there were additional forms for me to fill out and that the owness of providing a receipt was on me, not the vendor. I don't have the altered receipt and my blank copy would provide not any detail. 
Capital one refused to take any additional steps to investigate or prevent fraudulent activity and never made any inquiry to the vendor. It seems apparent that this is their way of stonewalling so they don't have to pursue. This is the only chargeback i have ever requested. It also has no bearing on them altering the receipt in possesion of the vendor.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I have recently come into some money and have been attempting to pay off the rest of my student loans with Aidvantage for nearly a whole week. I have posted multiple payments through their website payment system using my bank account and routing number, only to have Aidvantage not send the information to my bank. Furthermore, I have received multiple confirmations that the payments have posted, only to have Aidvantage mysteriously return the money the next day. My bank has confirmed the routing number and account number are correct and that Aidvantage has never even sent the payment info entered into their online system. The only resolution Aidvantage has offered was to make payments through their online phone system as a debit card payment, which takes nearly 30 minutes to go through all the menus, and then they still charged the wrong amount ( an underpayment ) and I could not change it. I have resigned myself to making multiple payments over the course of weeks now instead of paying off my loans in one fell swoop and Aidvantage has been absolutely no help whatsoever, going as far as to blame my bank.
