Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Company: U.S. BANCORP

Complaint narrative:
I purchased XXXX XXXX that I never received and asked for my money back for services that were not received. I contacted my bank after filing an FTC report. The FTC mentioned that if my bank is unwilling to help to file this report. I contacted my bank to file a dispute or fraud. The bank took my information and said they would get back to me within XXXX business days. I received a letter saying I was denied, but there was no information on why. I contacted them again and asked for the reason, and it was unclear. The only thing the banker could tell me was it was possible to be denied based on how I sent the money ( XXXX ). I asked to speak to the department that handles these issues. They said they were not customer-facing. They said they would reach out to them on my behalf. I did not receive any details on why they would not assist me. I was very confused and was wondering if they reached out to the vendor that has not provided me with the services I purchased.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
1 ) My claim is against Wells Fargo ( WF ) for improperly labeling XXXX authorized payments as " Stopped Payments '' filed as ( XXXX - federal bank code ) for " customer initiating stop-payments ''. 

2 ) Upon request WF claimed they could not identify eight of the nine stop payments my lender accused me of ordering. One of the nine alledged orders they did identify and would not provide evidence of my initiating the one stop payment of nine. I sent the misnamed itemized ledger ( attached ) to WF 's Enterprise Fraud Division. The evidence of errors ( attached ) are merchant processor statements provided by my lender. I was dismissed in a written notification and the case was closed indefinitely. 

XXXX ) WF claims that the lender could not access my account to debit my payments for XXXX months from XX/XX/year> to XX/XX/year>, leading up to the lawsuit filed by the lender in XX/XX/year>. However, XXXX misnamed transactions are reported by WF on the merchant processor statement within the respective nine months. 

XXXX ) WF 's dismissal and denial of the misnamed transactions ever occurring, paired with merchant processor statements leveraged to file suit against me is contradictory to the bank stating the stop payments do not exist. 

5 ) WF 's misnamed transactions and denial of their ever being ordered perpetuated the lender to wrongfully accusing me of lying. 

XXXX ) The lender claims WF 's " XXXX '' bank code issued to their merchant proccesor was sufficient evidence I intentionally mitigated remittance with nine orders to stop payment. The lenders accusatory false claim led to default, breach of contract, and subsequently they filed suit naming me personally and my company.

7 ) Wells Fargo claims I ordered one-stop payment and denies eight of nine XXXX exist. The lender states the evidence of all XXXX XXXX 's sent directly from XXXX to their merchant processor legitimized deceptive intent to evade payments. 

8 ) WF essentially eviscerated eight of nine XXXX published by the merchant processor. The Lender claims they publish what WF disseminates as official bank transactions. 

XXXX ) Derogatory court records and a Notice of Summons filed have destroyed my credit scores and 100 % blocked access to capital, leaving my business in XXXX. XXXX stop payment orders falsly documented on a merchant processor statement and a lawsuit causing irreparable harm with millions of dollars in losses is evidently insufficient evidence for WF to admit they failed to protect their customer.. 

Lender is XXXX
