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.

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.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY

Complaint narrative:
The existence of a derogatory rating on my account is causing me significant concern. I am deeply worried about its potential impact on my credit. It has already resulted in the denial of a recent loan application and an increase in the interest rates on my existing credit accounts. I want to emphasize the severe financial and emotional distress that this negative rating has caused me and will continue to cause until it is resolved.

Company: Rocket Mortgage, LLC
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request a review of my recent credit reporting issue with Rocket. I sincerely hope to connect with someone who can approach this matter with a clear mind and a sense of fairness. 

Last month, I received the final payment from my insurance settlement for a loss dating back to XXXX. The check included Rocket as a payee, so I endorsed it and proceeded to your website to determine the next steps. Upon logging in, I was surprised to find that I was a month behind on my mortgage paymentsan issue I had never encountered before, as I diligently pay every two weeks. 

After speaking with several representatives, I discovered that my monthly mortgage payment had increased by approximately {$50.00} in XXXX or XXXX of last year. Unfortunately, I never received notice of this increase, nor was I notified that I was late. Had I been aware, I would have addressed it immediately. 

Once I learned of the overdue balance on Sunday, I contacted Rocket first thing Monday morning. By Tuesday afternoon, I had paid the past due amount as well as an additional month in advance. Despite resolving the matter within 48 hours, I was informed shortly thereafter that my credit score had dropped by XXXX points due to the late payment reporting. Given my strong payment history and exemplary credit record, I was genuinely shocked by this impact. 

I have attached my last 12 months of XXXX  scores for reference, illustrating how this single reporting has significantly affected my financial standing. Due to the expenses I incurred from the home loss, I was planning to consolidate debt through a HELOC or a similar loan with Rocket. However, the reported delinquency now makes such financial maneuvers impossible. When I consulted with their credit issue team, I was told it could take an additional {$10000.00} {$15000.00} in payments to restore my score. 

I am not requesting a refund of late fees or special treatment. I simply ask that Rocket remove this late payment from my credit record. Considering the unexpected increase in my monthly mortgage, the lack of proper notification, and my immediate action to rectify the situation, I believe this adjustment would be both reasonable and fair. 

While I understand policy restrictions, I truly believe that this situation merits individual consideration given my otherwise impeccable payment history. 

Thank you for your time and attention. I hope we can find a fair resolution. 
Sincerely, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX < -- -- -Here is where Rocket destroyed my credit.

I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
CFPB Complaint Inaccurate Credit Reporting and Failure to Investigate Dispute ( XXXX Experian ) Subject : Experian failed to correct inaccurate and technically invalid reporting of account XXXX despite formal disputes. 
Complaint Description : I am filing this complaint against Experian Information Services, LLC for failing to correct inaccurate and legally deficient information regarding the account XXXX Partial Account # XXXX. 
Despite having submitted multiple formal disputes initial dispute sent on XX/XX/XXXX, and follow-up sent on XX/XX/XXXX, Experian continues to report : An inconsistent and technically invalid payment history, including a 30-day late status in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, followed by a current status in XX/XX/XXXX, and new late notations again in XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. This violates Metro 2 Field K24 and FCRA 1681e ( b ).

An inaccurate high balance of {$1800.00} for an account with a {$1500.00} credit limit, inflating my utilization and violating Metro 2 Field K05, FCRA 1681e ( b ), and TILA 1601. 
A past due balance of {$250.00} in XX/XX/XXXX despite a recorded payment for that same amount on XX/XX/XXXX which constitutes a failure to update per FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 1681s-2 ( b ).

Additionally, Experian responded with a generic response suggesting an automated investigation, without providing the method of verification as required under FCRA 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ). This constitutes a violation of my right to a reasonable and thorough reinvestigation under FCRA 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ).

This behavior also violates the Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law ( UTPCPL ) of Pennsylvania, 73 P.S. 201-2 ( 4 ), as it constitutes deceptive, inaccurate, and harmful reporting practices that injure the consumer.

Laws Violated : 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ), 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ) 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ) 15 U.S.C. 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 1681o 15 U.S.C. 1666b ( TILA ) Truth in Lending Act 1601 Metro 2 Compliance Guidelines Fields K24 and K05 UTPCPL 73 P.S. 201-2 ( 4 ) Cushman v.
