Consumer complaint received 2025-09-04 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report.

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Issue: Trouble using your card — Can't use card to make purchases
Company: Winklevoss Exchange LLC
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My XXXX  XXXX had a fraudulent charge on my card that I reported immediately and had it cleared off and another transaction that kept trying to come through that got declined every time. When I inquired about this, they sent me a new card with a completely different credit card number and the charge still kept coming even though the old card number was canceled. After a couple weeks, the same exact charge popped up again and was yet again declined. So I called and asked to speak with a supervisor and every time you asked to speak with a supervisor they claim they dont have one available and then nobody ever calls you back. I was advised you get another card with a different number because they didnt know why it was happening and then when I got this new card, they charged me for the replacement card even though they told me to do it and I had to go back through and request a credit for that. Another two weeks later the same charge tried popping up and declined again and every time I tried to use my card it kept declining transactions. I would get tax alerts to ask if the transaction was legit or not and when I replied, yes that it was for a legit charge. It still wouldnt let it go through. So I called back again got the same story about a supervisor not being available and then they were passing my problem along to a security department or something and I would get a call back with a resolution. It is now been over two months and I still cant use my card and still no resolution. I even asked if I could just close the account now and then reopen a different account later to try to mitigate this issue, but I was told that if I closed the account out, I would never be able to apply for it again for the rest of my life.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am formally notifying the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau of multiple erroneous items on my credit report, including a wrong address and fraudulent accounts. These inaccuracies violate FCRA Sections XXXX, XXXX ( b ), XXXX, XXXX ( a ), XXXX, and XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ), which require accurate and verifiable reporting. The false reporting has resulted in harm to my financial standing, denial of credit opportunities, and emotional stress. I request the CFPBs intervention to ensure thorough reinvestigation, verification, and removal of unverifiable items. 

Account XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/year> Balance Owed : {$520.00} Chargeoff This account is being reported inaccurately as a charge-off, which is damaging and misleading. A charge-off is a severe derogatory status, and under the FCRA and FDCPA, all information must be fully verifiable and accurate before being reported. The reporting of this account is harmful because there is no verified documentation showing the alleged balance or proof that proper procedures were followed. Continuing to report unverifiable negative information is a violation of FCRA XXXX, which obligates you to reinvestigate disputed items thoroughly. Without proper documentation from the furnisher, you must remove this entry immediately. 

I respectfully request the CFPB to ensure that all reporting agencies and creditors comply with the FCRA, verifying all disputed items or deleting them if unverifiable. The false reporting has caused financial damage, stress, and harm to my reputation. I expect confirmation in writing once all inaccuracies have been fully addressed.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX of 2025, was when the settlement payment for both XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX collections account went through. They removed XXXX from my credit report on equifax. The other account says that it was still unpaid and I still owe {$90.00}. That was not in the agreement for the settlement. I called Consumer Adjustment Company INC and they said on their end that both accounts were settled and for me to wait for it to fall off. I asked for proof and they sent me only XXXX account saying I only paid {$83.00} and some change when on my bank statement it says I paid them {$170.00}. I request that they remove both accounts from my credit report on XXXX XXXX XXXX  because that is just wrong to take someones money. Its falsely reporting that I still owe them money. I have called them multiple times every time I filed a dispute on my credit report and they keep saying its accurate when it is not.
