Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Capital One has failed to properly safeguard my personal banking account, update my banking account transactions, account balance, and bill payments. The account transactions on my Capital One bank account have not been updated since XX/XX/year> despite several transactions with merchants and credit cards that should have been posted. Capital One indicated that they experienced technical issue but that the issues had been resolved and service had been restored. That is not accurate. None of the transactions that should have been posted on my account showed up. Further, when I contacted Capital One this morning, they tried to hard sell me on using THEIR billpay service instead of addressing the issue of missing account transactions and no updates to my bank account. They indicated that their were additional ACH issue alerts made this morning, yet they are being disingenuous with their customers stating that the issues have been resolved when they have not. Further, Capital One has failed to safeguard my account because they can not accurately provide details of anything that has happened on my account for two weeks. The Capital One representative told me this morning where he could see " attempts '' of transactions on my account, but " could not see '' the amounts or merchant names. How do we know these weren't fraudulent? Further, a Capital One manager informed me that despite having sufficient funds in my account, a bill payment that was made to my XXXX Credit Card account will most likely be returned due to their issues. ALL of this is unacceptable. I will also be filing additional complaints with the XXXX  and the State Attorney General 's Office.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report. This failure has left inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. 

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, highlighting systemic issues, including failing to send consumer-provided evidence to vendors, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to properly notify consumers of dispute outcomes. 

These failures align with my experience, where Experian has failed to correct or remove disputed items despite evidence I provided. This inaction has caused ongoing damage to my credit rating. I request immediate corrective action to remove or modify the disputed accounts, as Experian 's actions violate federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. 

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.
