The company will also not allow me to talk to a manager, they will not provide written documentation or information on the account, they said that they have sent it but but I have not received any documentation regarding the account at all. I asked them to verify my mailing address and they said without paying them for the system they use they can't change my mailing address despite me needing to have some sort of written documentation. They will not even allow me to know the amount that is needed to pay the account off without paying them. The company keeps advising me to open up a prepaid card so that I can pay them if I don't want to share my bank account information with them to be able to speak with him about the account. I've just wanted to be able to pay the debt for the past 10 months as it's destroying my credit but they will not allow me to they won't even take a payment without paying them to make a payment.

They did not specify what in the terms of service I violated. When I tried to open another account, it was immediately closed/blocked/banned once I entered my information.

I submitted written evidence that a man forced me to give him {$230.00} in my car and he was showing me photos of his suicide attempt on his wrist to force me to pay. He consented to me driving him and to going to his apartment and hes lying saying that he didnt consent so he wouldnt have to pay. My life was in danger and he discussed his suicide attempts when police were involved and things were sour in his past. He was forcing money from me to pay for his mom who had just died. Cash App has been refusing to review the evidence and initiate a chargeback and XXXX refuses to follow through with the dispute to do a chargeback because my life is in danger from this man.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: OK

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. ''
