Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint to LEXISNEXIS due to improper used of my report and reporting inaccurate information on my file. I sent them a letter requesting to have an investigation to the unverifiable accounts, they stated that they did a proper investigation however when I checked my report the inaccurate information such as date opened, date of last activity, date reported, accounts status and payment history are still reporting. My rights were violated under 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A that states that I have the right to privacy, and 15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A Section 2 stated a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I filed a dispute with Wells Fargo Bank stating that a transaction was not as described and they said they would look into it and it would take 10 days. On XX/XX/XXXX I was awarded a provisional credit of XXXX which was the amount I was disputing. 10 days passed by and I received no communication from Wells Fargo by mail or email so I assumed the case was closed and dealt with. Today XX/XX/XXXX I received in the mail a document that stated my transaction was not in error and the provisional claim would be deducted XX/XX/XXXX. I was confused because Wells Fargo stated they would follow up in 10 days and went radio silent for over XXXX months. The transaction was authorized by me, but the service was not as described and the place I made the transaction was being difficult when dealing with a refund so I followed up with Wells Fargo hoping they would be helpful about the situation and instead did absolutely nothing but give me a credit not speak to me for months and then randomly decide to take the money back with no explanation about why they went silent. This worries me because I am disputing a current charge as well that is a much larger amount and that service that I paid for almost caused physical danger to me so I do not want a notice coming in the mail months from now again trying to take the money back from me after radio silence.
