Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Issue: Managing an account — Problem using a debit or ATM card
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/year>, someone fraudulently spent {$2200.00} from my checking account with my debit card across nine transactions. I pursued a resolution with the company, which did not resolve in my favor. I have filed a report with the XXXX Police Department, which is pursuing the case and reviewing surveillance tape. I also filed a complaint with the CFPB, to which Wells Fargo responded by saying that the case was resolved against me because it originally included an addition transaction that was pending but never was posted. I was then told by the Wells Fargo representative to return to Fraud Claims to reopen the case. Frauds Claim, in turn, refused to reopen the claim. So I am being rejected from having my {$2200.00} returned to me on technical grounds and blocked from having it properly assessed and returned to me.

Issue: Getting a credit card — Application denied
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding the denial of my credit card application by Capital One, which I submitted on XX/XX/year>. I believe that the denial of my application did not comply with the requirements set forth under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1691 and 12 C.F.R. 1002. 
According to 15 U.S.C. 1691 and the implementing regulation at 12 C.F.R. 1002, creditors are obligated to provide a clear and specific explanation for any adverse action taken on a credit application, including a denial. The notice of adverse action that I received does not meet these requirements, as it fails to provide : 1. A clear and specific reason for the denial : The notice does not adequately explain the precise factors or criteria that led to the adverse decision.

2. Information on my rights : I was not provided with the necessary information on how to obtain a copy of my credit report or dispute any inaccuracies. 
I believe that the lack of detailed information provided in the adverse action notice is inconsistent with the requirements of the ECOA and its implementing regulations. As a result, I am unable to understand or address the reasons behind the denial of my credit application.
