Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service — Domestic (US) money transfer
Issue: Other transaction problem — 
Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a Zelle payment of {$200.00} to my friend, XXXX XXXX, due to an urgent situation. The transaction was completed through my phone and marked as delivered to her account and bank. However, she never received the funds. 

To resolve the issue, we visited her bank to investigate where the money had been sent. The bank informed us that Zelle is responsible for processing the payment and advised us to contact Zelle directly. Following their guidance, we filed a claim with both the bank and Zelle, but no resolution was ever provided. 

Despite multiple attempts to address the situation, the funds remain missing, and I have effectively lost {$200.00} without any explanation. This experience has been frustrating, as neither the bank nor Zelle has taken responsibility or provided a clear solution. I am seeking further assistance in recovering my funds and a thorough review of how this transaction was handled.

Complaint narrative:
Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me. I've tried to get clarification from the creditors, but they have blatantly refused to give it to me. I demand that the creditors act immediately and be transparent. The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file!

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

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 1 provided, causing ongoing harm to my creditstanding. 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.
