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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
The consumer reporting agency has failed to comply with its obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 609 by failing to properly verify the accuracy and completeness of the information contained in my credit file. Notwithstanding my formal request for a comprehensive reinvestigation of all reported items, the bureau has either failed to provide sufficient verification or continues to report information that remains unverified. This failure constitutes a direct violation of my rights under federal law and raises substantial concerns regarding the accuracy, integrity, and reliability of the information currently appearing in my consumer report.

This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint regarding how my credit card issuer handled a dispute involving merchandise not as described, improper merchant fees, and an unauthorized rebilling. 

XXXX and facts : I placed an online order with XXXX for an automotive part advertised and invoiced as an adjuster assembly that includes motor, supported by product images showing a full motor and XXXX XXXX. The amount charged was approximately {$80.00}. 

When the order arrived, the item shipped was not the advertised product. Instead of a XXXX XXXX, I received only a small wiring pigtail ( two wires and a connector ). The item was materially different and unusable. 

I immediately contacted the merchant and provided photos showing the mismatch between what was advertised and what was delivered. 

The merchant acknowledged the return request but required that I pay return shipping and a 20 % restocking fee, despite this being a merchant fulfillment error. 

I disputed the charge with my credit card issuer and submitted all documentation, including : The receipt and product description showing includes motor Photos of the incorrect item received Email correspondence where the merchant demanded shipping costs and a restocking fee The disputed charge was initially removed. 

After the dispute, the merchant re-charged my card without authorization, even though I did not place a new order or approve a rebill. 

I reported this as an unauthorized transaction. My card issuer informed me that they would not take further action unless I returned the incorrect item at my own expense. 

I escalated to a supervisor and explained that this was merchant misrepresentation and an unauthorized rebill, not a buyer-initiated return. Despite this, I was told I must pay return shipping to proceed. 

Issue with the credit card issuer : The credit card issuer is conditioning relief on compliance with the merchants return policy, despite documented evidence that : The merchant shipped materially different goods The merchant attempted to impose improper fees for its own error The merchant re-billed my card without authorization after a dispute I am concerned that my credit card issuer failed to properly investigate the unauthorized rebilling and is improperly shifting financial responsibility to me for merchant misconduct. 

I am requesting that this matter be reviewed to determine whether the credit card issuer appropriately applied dispute and fraud protections and whether requiring the consumer to pay return shipping and fees in this situation is consistent with consumer protection obligations.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: MOHELA
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
Back in XXXX of XXXX, I over paid on one of my student loans when I paid it off. I called in and was told this over payment would be applied to one of my other loans. I have sent many messages since then including on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX asking about this resolution because this over-payment was money Mohela has yet since they are not applying it to one of my loans I am continuing to accrue additional interest on these outstanding loans. 

So Mohela is able to gain their own interest on the extra money they have from me, while also accruing more interest against me since my balance was " higher '' then it would have been if this over-payment was applied. 

I have now paid off all of my loans and this still hasn't been resolved. I've contacted support again and they claim that the only thing they see if a request to apply the overpayment on XX/XX/XXXX ( 4 months after I made this over-payment ). They told me it would take an additional 90 days to process, which means XXXX more days of my accruing interest on loans that I have technically already paid off. 

This is very dishonest as a practice and the lack of response to the last XXXX messages I have sent to Mohela is also a very dishonest practice. 

Tell me what I need to do to get this figured out and my account fully closed out so I don't have to work with this company ever again.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 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.
