Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint against these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. Surprisingly, I haven't received any response or correspondence from the Bureaus, and they have already closed my complaint. Could you please explain why they closed my complaint without resolving the issue? Have they even acknowledged or verified my dispute? I need assurance that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report and validated the accounts. Can you provide details about the methods they used to verify my report? This situation is incredibly frustrating! It has been more than 30 days since I filed the complaint, and I expected these accounts to be updated by now. If they are not updated immediately, I will have no other option but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

Issue: Trouble accessing funds in your mobile or digital wallet — 
Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I opened a bank account with Venmo. I completed their verification in order for my account to be opened and thought everything was okay. Since then I havent used the account until Saturday XX/XX/XXXX. I needed to get a title loan to help pay my bills so I used my Venmo account to receive my funds. I went to get a money order for my rent only for my card to decline twice. So I called the number on the back of the card and talked to a representative and she informed me my account was frozen on XX/XX/XXXX due to violation of terms. But I was confused because I have never used their services until recently. So she sent me an email so I can send in my identification information ie social security card, drivers license and marriage certificate for the name change and they sent me and email around XXXX XXXX  the next morning stating Our records show that you had funds in Venmo that were previously under review in our system, and those funds are now available to be transferred from Venmo to your bank account. 
Please note that you will only be able to transfer the funds in your Venmo account to a bank account using our standard transfer option. Due to restrictions on your account, you will NOT be able to use our instant transfer option. 
So thats exactly what I tried to do. I connected my bank account and it still wouldnt work. I tried another account and it did the same thing so I called to talk to a representative and she was no help so I asked for a supervisor when I called again. He said that everything was sent to the escalations team and I will hear back by XX/XX/XXXX. But I dont have that long I will be late on rent and my car insurance will be canceled if I dont have the money to pay. I cant afford for this to happen. They wont even tell me what I violated. Im so confused because I have already proved it was me and yet they are still not releasing my funds.
