Complaint narrative:
The reported late payments and charge-off accounts are inaccurate, incomplete, and unverifiable. The furnishers have failed to provide original, documented proof that these alleged delinquencies occurred. Without legally required validation, continued reporting of this negative information is a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). Reporting unverifiable derogatory information damages my credit standing and reflects negligent and unlawful reporting practices.

Complaint narrative:
I allowed myself to get suckered into a scam by JG Wentworth. However, I am trying to make this better financially for me and my family. 

I am applied for a loan with my bank and they requested a XXXX payoff. 

I emailed JGW on XX/XX/year> to request a XXXX payoff, after sat on hold for XXXX minutes. 
I requested this via email. I received no response. 
Today, XX/XX/year>, I requested this information again via the phone and email. 

They will only provide a XXXX payoff. Why? This is ridiculous because all banks request a XXXX payoff. My bank will not accept this. I feel this is a deceiving manner in which they keep customers stuck in loans.

Complaint narrative:
This letter is a formal notice of dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding inaccurately reported late payment dates on the above-referenced account appearing in my credit file. 
The reported derogatory payment data is factually and legally incorrect and constitutes a violation of my rights under multiple federal statutes. 
Creditor Name : [ XXXX XXXX ] Account Number : [ XXXX ] FCRA SECTION 602 RIGHT TO PRIVACY ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ) Under the FCRA, I have a right to privacy in the handling and dissemination of my credit information. The credit bureau is not permitted to report data that is inaccurate, unverifiable, or misleading, especially when such reporting creates a false impression of delinquency.

FCRA SECTION 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) NO WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION GIVEN ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies are prohibited from furnishing account information without the consumers written instructions. I have never given written authorization for the dissemination of false or misleading late payment information.

TILA SECTION 1666b IMPROPER LATE PAYMENT DESIGNATION ( 15 U.S.C. 1666b ) According to the Truth in Lending Act, a creditor may not treat a payment on an open-end credit account as late for any purpose if received by the due date or within the grace period.

Reporting a late payment that was not legally late is a blatant violation of this federal protection and exposes both the data furnisher and the credit reporting agency to liability under 15 U.S.C.

1681i.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date : XX/XX/year> To : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Request for Investigation Wells Fargo Improper Check Debit / Duplicate Deposit Error Dear CFPB Representative, I am writing to request your assistance with a dispute involving Wells Fargo Bank, where my checking account was improperly debited due to a duplicate check deposit issue between Wells Fargo and XXXX XXXX. 

Summary of Issue : On XX/XX/year>, I wrote a check to my nephew from my Wells Fargo account. 
My nephew attempted to deposit the check via his XXXX XXXX  mobile app, but the deposit failed. 
On the same day, he successfully deposited the same check via his Wells Fargo mobile app. 
On XX/XX/year>, Wells Fargo rejected the deposit, citing it as a duplicate. 
On XX/XX/year>, XXXX returned the transaction with a Refer to Maker message, stating they never received funds from Wells Fargo. 

However, Wells Fargo withdrew the funds from my account and has not returned them. 
I filed a formal dispute with Wells Fargo, but they denied my claim and provided no satisfactory explanation. I have visited both banks multiple times without resolution. Both institutions have acknowledged the issue but claim they are unable to locate the funds or determine which system error caused the duplicate handling. 

Besides that, I and my nephew came to Wells Fargo branch in XXXX at XXXX Hahns XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX to get help 4 times since XX/XX/year>. However, nothing had been resolved. My nephew also came to XXXX branch twice, and they confirmed that XXXX never receive fund from Wells Fargo for that check. 

I believe this constitutes an improper withdrawal and failure to correct an error under Regulation E ( 12 CFR 1005.11 ). I am therefore requesting that the CFPB investigate and require Wells Fargo to : 1. Reverse the improper debit from my account ; 2. Provide a full written explanation of their denial ; and 3. Ensure both institutions correct their records.

Enclosed with this letter is a dispute packet containing a detailed timeline of events and a list of supporting documents, including bank statements, correspondence, and dispute responses. 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. Please contact me if you require any further details or documentation. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX Wells Fargo Account : XXXX

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) 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
