Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I am respectfully requesting a review of the late payment currently being reported on my credit file as open or unresolved, as I believe this information to be inaccurate and misleading. This reporting is factually inaccurate and materially misleading. The payment in question has either been fully resolved, or I was never late as alleged. The continued reporting of this item as delinquent constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which mandates consumer reporting agencies to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information furnished. The presence of this inaccurate entry has directly harmed my credit standing, resulting in adverse effects on my credit score and potentially impeding future opportunities related to credit, housing, and employment. Accordingly, I demand a full investigation of this matter, and if the late payment can not be conclusively verified as accurate and timely, it must be immediately corrected or permanently deleted from my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
Im contacting you to formally dispute an item currently listed on my credit report that is inaccurate and not in compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, the information in question does not meet the standard of maximum possible accuracy, as required under FCRA Section 607 ( b ).

I take my credit and financial record very seriously, and I expect that anything being reported under my name is fully accurate and properly verified. In this case, that standard is not being met. Whether due to outdated, incorrect, or incomplete reporting, the presence of this item is misrepresenting my credit history and unfairly affecting my financial reputation.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
This company responded that it was not a forgiven charge off. Even when a creditor charges off an account for accounting purposes its still a financial gain because you can now remove the loss from your financial statement and claim a tax deduction. A consumer should be notified about a debt charge-off, as it has a significant negative impact on their credit report and finances. While a creditor might not directly send a charge-off notice, the consumer typically receives communication from the creditor 's collection department or a third-party debt collector, which is legally required to send a debt validation notice within five days of initial contact. This validation notice details the debt amount, the original creditor, and your right to dispute the debt. I never received debt validation or a copy of the initial application with my signature.Provide my proof that is in fact my account. Having my personal information is not proof that I in fact opened the account. Providing me with my email is not suffice anyone can use my email as well as my personal information if my Identity was stolen.

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.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

Complaint narrative:
I tried to transfer money from my current account to my XXXX XXXX account several times totaling {$110.00} the transactions failed and then the transactions to put the money back in my account failed. It says they failed and the money never showed up back in my account. The first person I talked to told me there was nothing wrong in my account before she could have even looked. Then told me I just have to accept the resolution and hung up on me. The neve guy I talked to first told me the money had been put back into my account causing my account to go from not in the negative to in the negative. Then he told me that the transaction was declined so it had never been taken out when I know that it was and it showed pending in my XXXX account for several days before saying failed. It shows on my account that both the transaction and the reversal failed and the money never came back and they refuse to tell me my balance from yesterday evening before the supposed reversal went through. I transferred {$9.00} from my savings to my checking to pay my afterpay balance that's the only transaction I made then this morning the reversal said it came through and now my account is - XXXX the reversal was for {$58.00}. If my account was already in the negative which it would have had to have been I would not have been able to transfer money from my savings to my checking to pay my afterpay because it would have just went to pay the amount my account was negative. They will not answer me when I ask how that's possible and just keep telling me it's all correct and I don't know what I'm talking about.

Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I discovered that Regions Bank had closed three of my accounts my primary checking, secondary checking, and savings without my knowledge, consent, or authorization. I never requested that these accounts be closed, I was not given advance notice, and I have still not received my money back from those accounts. This caused immediate disruption, including loss of access to funds, interruption of payroll deposits, and problems with scheduled payments. 

About a month earlier, I called the Regions branch at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, FL XXXX ( Phone : XXXX ) to dispute overdraft fees that had been wrongly charged. The employee refused to refund the fees, became hostile on the phone, and escalated the matter into a shouting match. Afterward, she retaliated by making false statements about what occurred. I reasonably assume this retaliation is what led corporate to later close all of my accounts. 

After the closures on XX/XX/XXXX, I went to another branch located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, FL XXXX ( Phone : XXXX ). The employee there was professional and refunded the improper overdraft fees. However, she also told me that corporate does whatever they want with impunity, confirming that these abusive practices come from the top and that branch staff have no real control. 

The combination of wrongful overdraft fees, staff retaliation, the closure of three accounts without my permission, and the refusal to return my money demonstrates serious misconduct by Regions Bank. These actions were unfair, abusive, and harmful. I request that regulators investigate, require Regions to return my funds and provide a full accounting, and impose corrective actions and penalties.

Complaint narrative:
Despite repeated attempts to resolve these matters, XXXX  continues to allow damaging inaccuracies to persist on my credit profile. These unresolved errors are more than just frustratingthey are unjust, and they are actively interfering with my ability to move forward financially. Every time I apply for a loan, a credit card, or any financial opportunity, these incorrect entries stand as barriers that I shouldnt have to face. It is unacceptable that after multiple disputes, you still havent taken the appropriate steps to ensure your data is correct. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, you are legally required to verify every single reported item with original, legitimate documentation. If you can not confirm the accuracy of these records with credible, dated evidence, then these entries have no place on my report and must be removed immediately. I am demanding that you conduct a thorough reinvestigationnot a generic response, not a rubber-stamped review, but a meaningful audit backed by proper documentation. Continued delays and inaction will be treated as a deliberate and unlawful disregard of your obligations under federal law. Ive been more than patient, but my patience has run out.
