Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account ending in XXXX was paid in full over a year ago. 

The available credit should show {$7000.00} and amount of debt {$0.00}. 

I have disputed this several times with XXXX, XXXX and TransUnion and these inept companies fail to correct the issue even though I have disputed with them multiple times. 

This is negatively affecting my score. They have surpassed the 45 day investigation period under FCRA since they have continue to report incorrectly.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
So I would like to place a formal complaint against XXXX, XXXX XXXX Equifax for violating my FCRA rights and my privacy. They have placed a public record on my consumer report that should not be there : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  said they verified it but I reached out to the courts who verified that they do not report bankruptcies to the credit bureaus. I have attached the letter that I received from the court. They are in violation of my rights pursuant 15 usc 1681b under permissible purpose. They never validated nor verified anything with anyone at the courts. XXXX is violating multiple laws including : The reporting requirements do not comply with FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C 1681I ) and the information must be deleted immediately. The civil liability law which I will sue under is clearly here : 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) - Congressional findings and statement of purpose ( Consumer Right to Privacy ) ( a ) Accuracy and fairness of credit reporting. The Congress makes the following findings : ( 4 ) There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. Failure to Comply or delete this public record from my report is a clear violation : XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy - XXXX # XXXX3. Code 1681n - Civil liability for willful noncompliance ( a ) In general, Any person who willfully fails to comply with any requirement imposed under this subchapter with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) ( A ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or damages of not less than { {$100.00} } and not more than { {$1000.00} } ; 15 U.S. Code 1681o Civil liability for negligent noncompliance- ( a ) In general Any person who is negligent in failing to comply with any requirement imposed under this subchapter with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure ; and ( 2 ) in the case of any successful action to enforce any liability under this section, the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court. Under 15 US Code 1681a ( 4 ) as a consumer I have right to privacy and these inaccurate items must be deleted from my consumer report. The Privacy ACT OF 1974 should be the one and only thing that should get this fixed for me. Please help me get this violation removed from my credit report. It is unverifiable. It needs to be removed within 5 days. For the simple fact it never should have be on my report in the first place!!

Complaint narrative:
My own mother ruined my credit when I was younger she would always make me get on the phone and tell companies I agree and I never knew what it was for until later in life when I tried doing this with credit and was denied and I checked and saw so many debts left unpaid from companies she would frequently purchase from, she denied and then eventually told the truth but in true narcissistic fashion she blamed me saying it was my fault because as a child I asked for things that were expensive so instead of saying no she committed fraud using my name and ruined my credit with no intention of ever paying it back or fixing it, I was finally able to move away and when I did I realized just how bad it actually was I am denied from everything and struggling with my own child because I have this large debt that was not my fault.

I called Equifax today and asked why is it still reporting when the bank has requested that it be removed and I have provided them with a FTC report. The supervisor stated that it was one thing that she see that she could not disclose over the phone in my consumer file and in order to get this inquiry remove I would need to send another FTC report in with more detail about this inquiry. Correct me if I am wrong why would I need to do that when the Bank had already send them a request almost a month ago to have it deleted.

Company: Klarna AB
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Klarna has made it exceptionally difficult to make payments to an open account. They do not allow payments to be made by telephone, despite my efforts to do so on XX/XX/2023. Klarna has made it exceptionally difficult to keep personal access to an open account. They recently made it a policy where you have to authenticate by access code through both email and wireless text. Authenticating with one should be enough, but they require both at the same time, and should your number change, like mine did, they can not update your phone number and restore access to your account unless you provide current photo identification through an automated process ( and customer service representatives can not do anything to help you in this automated process ). At the moment, I can not provide photo identification, because mine is expired, and being XXXX, I have not been able to go down to the XXXX and get a new card. Therefore, because of their corporate policies that deviate from standard practice, I'm going to be marked late in making my payment, affecting my credit score and financial stability.
