Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the late payment entries currently listed on my credit report. I have repeatedly attempted to have these discrepancies reviewed and corrected, yet no significant action has been taken. Despite submitting all required documentation and following up multiple times, the inaccuracies remain unresolved. 
This prolonged issue has caused ongoing financial strain and has negatively affected both my credit standing and overall well-being. The process of addressing these errors has been not only frustrating but also mentally and emotionally exhausting. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the legal right to a credit report that accurately reflects my financial history. This includes the timely correction or removal of outdated, incorrect, or unverifiable information. I am therefore urging your office to take immediate and appropriate action to update or delete the reported late payment entries in question.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because XXXX XXXX  and the credit reporting agencies ( Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax ) are reporting inaccurate late payments on my closed auto loan account. 

The account ( XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, opened on XX/XX/XXXX, original amount {$23000.00} ) was fully paid and closed in good standing. However, the credit bureaus are reporting a 30-day late payment in XX/XX/XXXX. This is inaccurate, unverifiable, and damaging to my credit history. 

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA 1681e ( b ) and 1681i ), the credit bureaus must ensure maximum possible accuracy and conduct a proper reinvestigation when a consumer disputes an item.

Additionally, under Truth in Lending Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1666b ; 12 CFR 1026.13 ), creditors are prohibited from misreporting billing/payment information without proper validation. 

I have already disputed this with the credit bureaus. If XXXX XXXX  and the credit bureaus can not provide documented proof ( statements, records, payment history logs ) that I was actually 30 days late in XX/XX/XXXX, then they are legally obligated to delete this derogatory remark and update my account status to : Paid as Agreed Never Late ( PAANL ).

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I reviewed my credit reports and found several accounts still reporting inaccurately even after my first round of disputes. XXXX XXXX XXXX  is showing a balance of {$1100.00} and marking the account as charged off while continuing to report it as past due, and Equifax is even displaying late payments in XXXX and XXXX despite the last activity being in XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX  is reporting a balance of {$430.00} with a charge-off status, yet it also continues to list the account as past due and marked my previous dispute as resolved without providing any Method of Verification as required by law. XXXX XXXX is reporting a {$120.00} balance charged off and shows late payments after the account was closed, which is impossible. XXXX XXXX reported a charged-off account sold to another lender, but the bureaus are still showing derogatory notations after the sale date. In addition, XXXX XXXX is reporting XXXX collection accounts for {$1300.00} and {$660.00} while falsely listing itself as the original lender, which is misleading since XXXX is only a debt buyer. I disputed these items previously, yet the bureaus have failed to properly reinvestigate or correct them, and the information remains inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable. These errors continue to harm my creditworthiness despite my timely disputes.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
A few weeks ago, I submitted dispute letters directly to all three credit bureaus regarding inaccurate items on my credit report. These inaccuracies are clear violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and the bureaus are legally obligated to investigate and correct them. I have received responses suggesting I am using a third-party service, which is false. I am the sole author and sender of these disputes, and I have not enlisted the help of any credit repair company or outside entity.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Opening an account — Didn't receive terms that were advertised
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I opened a Capital One 360 checking account on XX/XX/year> specifically to qualify for the advertised {$300.00} checking account bonus ( XXXX XXXX  : XXXX ). The terms of the promotion stated that I must receive XXXX qualifying direct deposits of {$500.00} or more within XXXX  days of account opening. 

My first qualifying direct deposit in excess of {$500.00} was made on XX/XX/year> ( Day XXXX ). I continued to use the account and received a second direct deposit on XX/XX/year>. 

Despite clearly meeting the intent of the promotion and actively maintaining direct deposits, Capital One has refused to honor the {$300.00} credit. Their representative and supervisor both confirmed that because the second deposit arrived XXXX  days after the XXXX window, they will not honor the bonus, and no exceptions would be made even though I opened the account entirely for this promotion and fulfilled the requirement in good faith. 

I believe this is misleading and deceptive advertising. The promotion was presented in a way that gave the reasonable expectation that establishing XXXX payroll deposits totaling {$500.00} or more would qualify for the bonus. The bank has chosen to deny the bonus on an extremely narrow and technical interpretation, despite having received exactly what the promotion intended regular payroll deposits being set up and used.

I have already submitted requests for correction and provided documents to verify my true and current information, yet the errors remain unresolved. 
These inaccuracies are not only misleading but could also impact future credit decisions. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to ensure that all personal information in my credit report is accurate and up to date.
