Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I recently submitted a request for investigation of the above noted account, which you denied. I submitted sufficient information for you perform a reasonable investigation of my dispute. Unfortunately, you neglected to do so. If you had investigated properly the results would have proven that I have never been late on these accounts though your company claims to have verified this. Depending solely on your flawed e-Oscar system has proven to produce less than accurate and fair information. I request that you take a more active and accurate approach to investigate this for me. As in XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX, Equifax, et al, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldn't merely " parrot '' information from the creditors and collection agencies ... that they have to conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and the honesty/integrity of the creditor/CA in question. Sending out a generic form letter through the e-Oscar system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is by no ones measure reasonable.

Company: ZIONS BANCORPORATION
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I requested assistance with fees by requesting contact from the branch manager At least 5-6 times by calling the branch directly, but would always get sent to the customer service line. When my fees first began, the branch manager contacted me & we spoke once. He told me if I run into fee issues to reach back out. I ran into fee issues later that were primarily a result in a delay in my direct deposit from child support that should always post on Fridays & there were two instances it didnt post until the following Monday or Tuesday. Then, I have my payroll direct deposit thats bi-weekly and I was accustomed to receiving it every other Wednesday but national bank always posted it later on Fridays. This all really messed up my accounting and I really needed, and still need help. Their complaints department finally got involved for a brief moment, but they too have now dropped the ball. Ive tried calling XXXX three times to see if any help can be provided and no one ever returns my calls. Now Im getting letters from their collections department & have had 2 calls trying to collect money. Ive told both those reps what has gone on & still no help. I barely had the account for 6-8 months probably & these problems arose in a flash. I realize Ive had a few fees reversed here and there, but Ive had upwards of {$800.00} in fees in a very short time. Thats a vicious cycle to try to come out of. Even if I had half those fees reversed, it wouldnt be so cumbersome. And if the branch manager would have reached out to me a long long time ago to help a customer in need, this would not be where it is today.

Company: McCarthy, Burgess & Wolff, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Despite numerous requests for a Validation Notice/Validation Letter , McCarthy Burgess & Wolff has failed to send it to me. I have made past requests directly, and through the CFPB before. I believe they are legally required to send it so I would encourage the CFPB investigate them for this, nevermind the fact they illegally attempted to collect money from a criminal act against me. 

MB & W -- I can say with 100 % certainty I have never gotten what is supposedly legally required for you to send. Perhaps you should send it registered or certified in the highly unlikely chances the last few Validation Notices you sent got lost in the mail.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
My account with this company is being reported late and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company and 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 reported in MONTHS REPORTING LATE to be removed 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. 

This company 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! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports.
