Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
DO NOT send me any stall letters to delay or misdirect this investigation this complaint is authorized BY ME. I am formally disputing the inaccurate, unverifiable, and unauthorized information currently being reported on my credit file, which has caused significant harm to my creditworthiness and violated my consumer rights under federal law. In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., I am demanding a full and reasonable reinvestigation into all derogatory accounts, personal data errors, and hard inquiries. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ), the credit bureaus are required to investigate disputed information, and I demand strict compliance with this statute, including the Method of Verification ( MOV ) under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ). For each item in question, I am requesting original source documentation specifically a signed contract bearing my signature, a complete account history, proof of permissible purpose under 15 U.S.C. 1681b, and all communications between the credit bureau and the furnisher of the information. As a victim of the Equifax Data Breach and TransUnion Data Incident, my personal information has been found on the dark web, raising serious concerns about identity theft and misuse. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has taken action against Equifax for improper handling of consumer disputes, and I have every reason to question the legitimacy and accuracy of the data currently being reported. I am scared and extremely worried because I do not know who has my information or how its being used. This is why yall keep getting sued by consumers like me because you continue to overlook clear violations and fail to properly investigate disputed data. If you are unable to provide verified, legally admissible documentation for each disputed item, you are required under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) to delete the information immediately. Noncompliance will be viewed as a willful violation of the FCRA under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, and I am fully prepared to escalate this matter with formal complaints to the CFPB, FTC, and my State Attorney General. I expect a complete, legally compliant response within 30 days, as required by law. Attached are copies of my drivers license, social security card, and proof of address for identity verification. DO NOT add any fraud alerts. DO NOT add any personal statements to my credit profile. Please read this letter in its entirety before responding. 

Here is a list of inaccurate, unverifiable, and unauthorized information that must be investigated and resolved : Account Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  * Balance : {$170.00} Account Name : XXXX Account Number : XXXX Account Name : XXXX Account Number : XXXX Inquiries : XXXX XX/XX/year> EXPERIAN XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> XXXX BANK XX/XX/year>

Issue: Trouble accessing funds in your mobile or digital wallet — 
Company: Klarna AB
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I maintain a digital wallet account with this company containing funds. Recently, I contacted their customer support regarding the status of my account. The support agent explicitly assured me in writing that my account was 'active ' and stated there was 'nothing to worry about. ' I relied on this official confirmation to leave my funds on the platform. 

Subsequently, my access to these funds was restricted, directly contradicting their assurance. Even more concerning, when I attempted to retrieve the transcript of that specific conversation to prove their promise, the chat history had been removed from the user portal. It appears the record of this assurance has been hidden or deleted. 

The company is now wrongfully withholding my funds. Their actionsmisrepresenting the account status and subsequently obscuring the support recordsconstitute unfair and deceptive trade practices. I am unable to withdraw or use my own money. I demand the immediate release of my balance and a full, unredacted copy of my account data, including the missing chat logs.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I found several negative accounts on my credit reports that are inaccurate, incomplete, or not properly verified. These include multiple charge-off accounts, several collection accounts from debt buyers, and hard inquiries that I did not authorize. I submitted disputes to the credit bureaus and the furnishers, but none of the companies provided the required documentation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act or the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. No original signed contracts, no billing statements, no payment histories, no proof of assignment, and no verification of the balances were provided. Some accounts show inconsistent dates, missing information, or delinquency patterns that do not match the creditors own reporting. Despite the lack of validation, the credit bureaus marked the items as verified without supplying any evidence. These inaccurate and unverified items have damaged my credit score and created difficulty in obtaining credit and fair financial opportunities.

So I spent over XXXX hours on XXXX phone calls and never got my money transferred. They also ask inappropriate questions. I was told that if I did not remove the speakerphone, they would hang up, even though no one else was in the room. When I told them I was transferring money to myself and that I was not doing anything else with it, they asked what I do with my money at another bank. I asked who regulated them, and the supervisor said he did not know. My online account was also blocked, which also required a phone call. My information was always accurate. Every phone call, they blocked my online account.
