Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Cash App ( Block , Inc. ) due to inadequate customer service and unfair practices, which violate the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). Specifically, Cash App failed to take timely and effective measures to prevent and address fraud on their platform, leaving my account vulnerable and unprotected.

Furthermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress for these violations.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting a formal complaint regarding TransUnion 's failure to remove discharged student loans from my credit report. These loans were forgiven under the Borrower Defense to Repayment program, and per the U.S. 
Department of Education, they should no longer be reported. 
Despite my dispute, TransUnion has not corrected the information, and my credit report continues to reflect these forgiven loans. This is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates the credit reporting agencies maintain accurate and complete records. 
I request the CFPB 's intervention to ensure that TransUnion fully removes these student loans from my credit report. Please advise on the next steps I should take and whether any additional documentation is required. 
Thank you for your assistance in this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

I called to rectify it and explain I didnt have enough money for their increase in payment amount ( which I was told I could rehash at the time of them upping it ). I was attempting to make half a payment and set the other half the next week. He refused to talk to me just said theyd garnish my wages since I had XXXX strikes against me already. I hung up because he wouldnt say anything but theyd seek legal action. I then called back and asked for anyone but him, twice I was transferred back to XXXX XXXX. After I hung up the second time they transferred me to him, he called and left me a message saying Im not allowed to call again unless Im willing to discuss the matter. He then called me at my place of work, in the department I work at and left a message.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX XXXX XXXX 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. 


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


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered XXXX  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! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports

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.
