Consumer complaint received 2025-01-18 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: MECHANICS BANK
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Between XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, I had 28 late payments on my car loan. This was due to XXXX, although I communicated this to my lender, Mechanics Bank, and begged them to stop reporting late payments, they continued to do so. I paid the loan off XX/XX/XXXX, during COVID as they repossessed my car, even though I still had a deferment to use, they refused me the right to use. At the time, I had paid close to {$3000.00} and was only owing {$2500.00} to pay off the car. Their reps and management were rude, unprofessional and were adamant on no flexibility, resulting in an influx of car repossessions in my area, they sent their repo men out and they were taking cars, while in the pandemic, from people as they were going to the grocery store, picking up kids from school, grabbing food, etc as they were targeting the area and the consumers who were hit hardest, in lower income areas. Mechanics Bank auto department was set toXX/XX/XXXX and they instructed them to be relentless against consumers as their days were coming to an end. This is why they refused to comply with any of the laws/directions that was issued to the industry. Since then, I have repeatedly disputed, via XXXX and XXXX, using the guidance provided by the CFPB regarding late payments not being reported during the pandemic, however, both of these entities has failed to properly investigate disputes, allowing these late payments to remain on my credit. Even since the CFPB has sued them both, for this very reason. As recent as today, I disputed with XXXX and same day, it returned, accurate and will not be removed. Currently, I have several complaints in place with you, against XXXX for this exact issue. They still remain to disregard your Compliance regulations, and negatively impact consumers credit with their low level approach to thoroughly investigating disputes. These multiple agregious offenses are terribly impacting consumers and with these multiple examples being provided, daily, it appears that they will continue to proceed, disregarding your guidance. Mechanics Bank auto finance department is now shut down ( very shady ) so it's highly unlikely that they were able to investigate 28 payments within hours, they just clicked the button and as usual, XXXX went along with it, and proceeded doing the same. This is what I call " duplication without resolution ''. This vicious cycle is detrimental and allows these mega companies to go unchecked, while the consumer suffer significant loses. This most likely is something that has impacted millions. Please research, in depth, and remove these late pays from this paid off account so that I can have the opportunities of fair credit. See docs attached to support.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IA

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I am to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles 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 CFPBs findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving user vulnerable to scams. The lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumers safety.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint to request immediate intervention due to serious violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) by TRANSUNION. Despite previous requests for correction, these violations continue to negatively impact my credit report and financial standing. 
Details of the Complaint : 1. Failure to Ensure Maximum Possible Accuracy The FCRA requires that credit bureaus and creditors ensure the accuracy of the information they report. My credit report contains inaccurate that remain unverified despite formal disputes, causing significant harm to my credit score and credibility. Previous attempts to address these inaccuracies have been inadequately handled, demonstrating a failure to uphold FCRA standards for accuracy.

2. Inadequate Investigation and Reliance on Automated Verification Systems Under FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ) and 1681s-2, creditors and credit bureaus must conduct thorough investigations of disputed information. However, my previous disputes have been met with automated responses through systems like XXXX, which fail to meet legal requirements for a complete investigation. This approach neglects a comprehensive review of the disputed entries, perpetuating inaccurate information on my report. 
3. Non-Compliance with Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) Requirements As outlined in TILA, creditors must issue clear and accurate billing statements and disclose essential account information to consumers.Creditor has not adhered to TILA requirements in handling my account, resulting in erroneous charges and inaccurate reporting. This failure to comply with TILA has compounded the inaccuracies on my credit report, further violating my rights as a consumer. 
4. Violation of FDCPA Standards for Accuracy and Non-Deceptive Practices The FDCPA mandates that debt collectors and furnishers of information must report accurate, verifiable data. The accounts in question have been repeatedly reported inaccurately, with misleading information that has not been corrected despite my disputes, constituting a violation of FDCPA protections.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Beginning XX/XX/year>, XXXX XXXX started charging a monthly fee for {$3.00} on my XXXX XXXX. My balance remains at a {$0.00} and is due on the XXXX of each month. On the XXXX, the billing cycle ends, the {$3.00} fee is charged and my balance is reported to the credit bureaus all on the same day. As of XX/XX/year>, every month my credit report shows my credit utilization raises due to my balance increasing. This has affected my credit negatively. There is no way for a consumer to be able to pay their bill on the XXXX and have the payment post before it is reported to the credit bureaus on the XXXX. I tried to pay the XXXX XXXX monthly fee in full for the year to avoid this year but the website does not allow payments that exceed the current balance. A supervisors suggested the same thing but then confirmed with someone else that it was not possible. The reps do not seem to understand how credit works or how to avoid this issue and refuse to change the date that credit reports are updated or change the billing cycle or due date. The protocol is contradictory to their billing statements that mention credit reporting. I have attached copies of billing statements showing how the bills are due on the XXXX and the {$3.00} is charged the next day and and another attachment showing the alert I received from XXXX XXXX.
