I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety

Subject : Complaint Against XXXX for Inaccurate Reporting and Lack of Response Dear CFPB, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against XXXX regarding serious issues I have encountered with their credit reporting practices. I believe these issues warrant your attention and potential legal action against XXXX for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

I submitted a credit dispute to XXXX concerning inaccuracies in my credit report, specifically related to my rental account, which I consistently pay on time. Unfortunately, I never received a response to my dispute. XXXX not only failed to report accurate information but also closed my account inaccurately, which has negatively impacted my credit standing. 

Your agency has previously taken action against major credit bureaus for similar violations, including failure to respond to consumer disputes within the required XXXX period. XXXX 's handling of my dispute appears to reflect a pattern of neglect in ensuring accurate reporting, utilizing faulty intake procedures, and inadequately communicating with the original furnisher of the information. 

Additionally, I have experienced distressing outcomes due to the inaccurate information on my consumer report, which has hindered my ability to obtain credit and secure housing. Despite providing documentation confirming my current rental status, XXXX continues to display misleading information, including the erroneous closure of my account. 

I urge the CFPB Office of XXXX to take action against XXXX for these practices, as they not only violate consumer rights but also create significant challenges for individuals trying to manage their financial standing responsibly. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you regarding the next steps. 

Sincerely, CFPB IT HAS BEEN PAST 30 DAYS
