Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I discovered that multiple accounts and collection entries are being reported on my credit reports that are inaccurate, outdated, and unverifiable. Despite previous disputes and requests for validation, the credit bureaus and the furnishers have continued to report these items without providing any supporting documentation, signed contracts, or proof of ownership. Several of these accounts were sold or transferred, yet they remain listed as active charge-offs with balances still owed, which is misleading and violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). In addition, at least one inquiry was made without my written consent or any permissible purpose. These errors have persisted for several months and continue to negatively impact my credit profile, resulting in financial harm and unfair reporting of information that can not be proven accurate or legitimate.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Previous complant ID : XXXX On XX/XX/year>, I attempted to transfer funds from my other bank account to a newly opened Citi GOLD Bank account . The wire transfer was rejected by Citi Bank, and I was charged a {$40.00} return fee by Citi on XX/XX/year> after my wire is returned. No one at Citi or on my account website page informed me that my new account could not receive wire transfers with 48hrs after account open, nor was this restriction disclosed during account setup or in any documentation provided to me. I contacted Citi Banks wire transfer team to understand the reason for the rejection and the fee. They confirmed that the account was too new to accept wire transfers and stated that there was no way to credit the funds or reverse the fee. I believe this fee is unfair and should not be my responsibility, as I followed standard procedures and provided accurate account information.

Update from CITI BANK XX/XX/year> : " Upon receipt of your inquiry, a thorough investigation was conducted. Per the Consumer Deposit Agreement, we advise your ability to perform or request certain activity on a newly opened account may be delayed until the account is open and active. This includes incoming and outgoing wire transfers. You can view your Deposit Account Agreement here or you can obtain a copy by speaking with a banker in a branch, by calling the phone number on the back of your Citibank Banking Card, or by calling XXXX ( XXXX * ). '' Update from XX/XX/year> : I appreciate CITI 's response, but this outcome is not acceptable. The Consumer Deposit Agreement does not clearly state that I would be charged a fee due to a delay in wire processing, nor was I informed of any potential restriction on new accounts at the time of initiating the wire. The agreement is lengthy and difficult for an average user to review in full detail, and it is Citibanks responsibility to clearly communicate such important limitations in advance.

In fact, I initiated the wire after consulting with a Citigold agent through the Citigold chat portal on the same day my account was opened. The agent provided me with the wire instructions without mentioning any restriction or possible delay.

I have already confirmed with my external bank that the {$40.00} fee was not charged by them, and both your Savings Account team and Wire Department confirmed that this charge came from Citibanks wire team.

Given the circumstances, I request that Citibanks Savings Account team coordinate with the Wire Department to issue a refund of the unexpected {$40.00} fee that resulted from this internal miscommunication and lack of disclosure.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to a prompt resolution.

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 recently closed my checking account with Columbia Bank ( now Umpqua Bank ). When I closed the account, I was not told that a pending {$1500.00} payment to my credit card would be rejected or that I would receive my remaining balance by cashiers check.

After the closure, the pending payment was rejected. The employee handling the closure never informed me that pending payments would not process. This lack of disclosure caused the payment to fail and could have impacted my credit and resulted in fees.
