Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

I am listing accounts and inquiries below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit.

I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts and inquiries has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am f

iling a complaint regarding multiple overdraft fees applied to my account. Despite having sufficient funds at the time the transactions were authorized, I was charged overdraft fees due to delays in the posting of charges and credits. This situation mirrors the recent findings by the CFPB regarding Navy Federals practices, where overdraft fees were assessed on transactions that settled with insufficient balances, even though funds were available when the transactions were initiated. I believe these practices are unfair and respectfully request an investigation into my account and the specific tra
nsactions in question.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Paypal handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Paypal numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Paypal 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 PayPal 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:
I am submitting this formal complaint against Navy Federal Credit Union concerning the imposition of multiple overdraft fees on my accounts since their opening in 2018. Despite having sufficient funds available at the time transactions were authorized, fees were assessed due to delayed posting of charges and credits. These practices appear consistent with recent findings by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding Navy Federals similar conduct, wherein overdraft fees were applied to transactions that settled with insufficient balances despite initially available funds. I assert that these practices are unfair and request a comprehensive investigation into the transactions on my accounts to address this matter.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute certain accounts and inquiries listed on my consumer credit report, as referenced below. These entries appear to be the result of a data breach, fraud, or unauthorized activity. I request verifiable proof, including my signature or electronic signature, for any transactions or inquiries associated with these entries. 

Please note that I am submitting this letter on my own behalf, not through a third party. I ask that you carefully review this matter, as I did not authorize these actions. These unauthorized entries represent a violation of my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Section 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), which mandates the blocking of information resulting from a data breach or fraud, and Section 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ), which defines permissible purposes for consumer reports. 

I have already contacted the relevant companies and discovered that these actions were initiated without proper validation or original documentation from the reporting entities. Since I did not authorize these accounts or inquiries, they should be classified as a result of a data breach or illegal reporting by creditors or third-party data furnishers. 

I request that you conduct a thorough investigation into this matter and take appropriate action to resolve these discrepancies as soon as possible.
