Complaint narrative:
i literally joined your bank days ago in an attempt to fully transition into it by creating a joint checking account with my mom and a personal savings account on my own and even created and got approved for you secured credit card. i thought wed have a long lasting relationship and a branch was very close to my house. but within days you claim im being risky and put a hold on my checking and savings accounts and are not letting me log into my online banking. your customer service couldnt even help me with the reason why and i went to 3 different branches to even get MY money out of your mediocre accounts. Its so funny you say you see me as risky when all i did was deposit some money into the accounts and started using them accounts like how they should be used! for paying bills and etc. now i do not even want to bank with you at all. close my checking and savings account i will never put a XXXX in your accounts again. im not even asking for them to be restored i see how annoying you already are to bank with within a week and i am not going to deal with this for years to come. all i request now is that you FIX MY ONLINE BANKING IMMEDIATELY so i can access my credit card that y'all even approved me for. if you decide not to fix my online banking then you might as well close the credit card and refund me my security deposit because if youre not even gon na let me access the card to make payments then why should i even have the card at all, for you morons to ruin my credit next? i dont think so. fix my log in immediately so i can at least use this card i took a whole hard inquiry for.

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.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing the following unauthorized inquiries on my Equifax credit report, which were made without my consent or a permissible purpose, violating FCRA Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ). This section requires creditors to have a permissible purpose, such as my written authorization or a credit application, to access my credit report. I did not initiate or authorize these inquiries. Pursuant to FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), I request that you investigate and remove these inquiries within 30 days. 

Disputed Inquiries : Creditor XXXX XXXX, Date : XX/XX/year> Creditor : XXXX, Date : XX/XX/year> Violation : The presence of these inquiries without my authorization constitutes a violation of FCRA Section 604, as no permissible purpose exists. Failure to remove unverified inquiries within 30 days will violate FCRA Section 611, which requires a reasonable investigation and correction of inaccurate or unverified information.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing a charged-off account reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$650.00}. The account reflects a last payment date of XX/XX/XXXX, a charge-off status, a closed date of XX/XX/XXXX ( which is before the last payment ), and reporting activity as recent as XX/XX/XXXX. These dates are chronologically inconsistent and factually invalid. 

Further, the reported balance of {$650.00} conflicts with the charge-off status. If this debt was forgiven or charged off as uncollectible, XXXX  XXXX XXXX is required to issue a 1099-C per IRS Reg. 1.6050P-1. I have never received one. If the debt remains collectible, they must accurately reflect that status, not list it as both closed and charged off.

This account violates the following provisions : FCRA 1681e ( b ) Inaccurate and misleading reporting ; FCRA 1681s-2 ( b ) Duty to investigate and correct invalid data ; FCRA 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) Must delete unverifiable or conflicting information ; FDCPA 1692e ( 2 ) ( A ) False representation of amount and legal status.

In addition, the data appears to violate XXXX XXXX Format standards : Base Segment Field XXXX ( Account Status Date ) and Field XXXX ( Payment Rating ) reflect internal inconsistencies that contradict accurate reporting logic. 

Supporting legal precedent includes : Cushman v. TransUnion, Dennis v. BEH-1, Evantash v. GE Capital all confirming that unverifiable or internally inconsistent tradelines must be removed. 

I am requesting deletion of this tradeline due to noncompliance with federal reporting requirements and inability to validate its accuracy.

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 leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.
