Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I sent a letter regarding the errors and unfamiliar entries on my credit report, but sadly, I haven't heard back in over 30 days. It seems like my concerns are being overlooked, and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these issues aren't investigated within 30 days, they should be removed from my credit report without delay. I might need to pursue legal action because of the stress this situation has put me under.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be updated. 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. EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION 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! Update the late payments from my consumer reports

Complaint narrative:
Good day, I got married 8 years ago. I kept the same social security number, same date of birth but changed my last name. 

I updated my social security card with the Social Security administration with my married last name, they kept the same Social Security number for me. 

I changed my last name on my license with the XXXX in my state. 

My marriage certificate has my married last name. 


I contacted all three credit bureaus to let them know that my profile was not accurate. They had two different profiles for me. They had one profile with my maiden name and they had another profile with my married name, even though my Social Security number, date of birth and address where all the same for both profiles.

I contacted them 8 years ago after I had got married, they fixed it then and for some strange reason it reverted back to a split profile. I contacted them two years ago after a credit that I was seeking from XXXX got denied, then I also contacted them to three months ago after a mortgage application got denied, then I contacted them about 40 days ago.

All along I had sent them my marriage certificate, my Social Security card with my updated marriage name, my current ID, all in all Ive sent this information about five different times and still my credit profile hasnt been merged and the mistake of the hard inquiries based on the wrong information given has not been corrected Even though my credit card company and apart complex rental payments are reporting to all 3 Bureaus with my date of birth, social security and address They are also not showing it on my credit report Also I have two hard inquiries that all 3 credit Bereau provided the wrong information back to the requesters based on my split profile, they are refusing to remove them.

I did authorize the hard In but the 3 credit Bereaus game the companies requesting the wrong information.

Although I do not have late payments or negative instances on my report. All 3 credit bereaus reduced my credit score from XXXX to XXXX based on my split profile. 


Thank you for your help

Issue: Opening an account — Account opened without my consent or knowledge
Company: Chime Financial Inc
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I received 6 emails from Chime, including one that linked a XXXX and XXXX account, stating a new account had been opened. These emails included a routing number, checking account number, mailing address in Ohio ( I live in Missouri ) and Login location ( in Texas ). I called Chime to let them know that an account had been opened associated with my email address ( likely a typo! ) and they required me to provide MY personal name and information -- -- however I am not associated at all with Chime or this new account. Upon speaking with numerous people, and a manager, at Chime they were unable to do anything without me providing personal information -- - obviously something I was unwilling to do as I am unassociated with their documentation issues. 
I have flagged all emails, will watch my credit history, and am in no way limited from attempting to log into this new account ( As I have the account number, routing number and full mailing address! ) -- - this is an unsafe and ridiculous practice. Is it phishing? Is an account opened in my name?
