Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
My account with EXPERIAN was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment to be updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

EXPERIAN Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

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 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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. 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.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally report an issue I have encountered with Navy Federal Credit Union and request your assistance in resolving it. Specifically, I am appealing XXXX unauthorized transactions totaling {$2900.00} that occurred on my account. These transactions were not authorized by me, and despite my efforts to resolve the matter, Navy Federal has denied my request for a refund. 

The transactions in question, each for {$990.00}, were processed without my consent. Upon noticing these charges, I immediately attempted to contact the company named XXXX, which appeared to be associated with the transactions. However, despite their promise to respond within XXXX hours, I have yet to receive any communication from them. I have provided proof of my attempts to reach XXXX, including email correspondence, which I am attaching for your reference. 

Additionally, I have filed a police report regarding the unauthorized transactions. The report, which is included as part of this submission, details the incident and supports the claim that these transactions were fraudulent. I am confident that these transactions were not authorized by me, and I believe that I am entitled to a refund of the total amount of {$2900.00}. 

In addition to my efforts to reach XXXX, I also submitted an appeal to Navy Federal Credit Union, requesting a reversal of the charges. Unfortunately, my appeal is pending, and I have not received my funds back. I am unable to wait any longer for a resolution and need my money returned promptly. 

I respectfully request your assistance in helping me recover the funds and resolve this issue. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt assistance. 

Sincerely, [ Your Full Name ]

Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC

Complaint narrative:
Your response to CFPB XXXX fails to address the key issues regarding the inaccuracies and inconsistencies in the reporting of the alleged debt. The balance you are alleging is {$700.00}, yet you have rounded it up to {$700.00} on my credit report, demonstrating inaccurate reporting. Furthermore, when I attempted to verify this debt directly with XXXX XXXX, they were unable to confirm the account, making your claim unsubstantiated and unreliable. Additionally, you have reported inconsistent information to XXXX and XXXX, despite FCRA requirements mandating that all furnished data be accurate and cohesive. The inconsistent dates provided have caused this account to re-age, further violating credit reporting standards. Moreover, you are incorrectly reporting a 120-day late payment status when collection accounts can not legally be reported as past due. Lastly, this account is beyond the applicable statute of limitations, meaning legal enforcement is no longer valid. Due to these violations, I demand the immediate removal of this account from my credit reports. If not corrected promptly, I will pursue legal action for FCRA and FDCPA violations.
