Consumer complaint received 2025-09-05 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: DE

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because TransUnion is reporting inaccurate and unverifiable information on my credit report. On XXXX XXXX XXXX, I identified several accounts that I believe are either outdated, not mine, or can not be verified under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Please delete the following accounts : XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX - Incorrect Personal XXXX XXXX XXXX Incorrect Personal XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - Incorrect Personal XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  - Incorrect Personal I submitted a formal dispute to TransUnion requesting that these accounts be fully investigated and removed if not verified with proper documentation. However, I did not receive a meaningful investigation or verification, and the inaccurate information remains on my report. 

I am requesting the CFPB 's assistance to ensure TransUnion complies with federal law, specifically sections 1681i ( reinvestigation of disputed information ) and 1681b ( permissible purpose ). My goal is to have any unverifiable, inaccurate, or unauthorized accounts permanently deleted from my file.

Complaint narrative:
To do what is fair to me as a consumer, delete and update my credit report as they are reporting inaccurate information that I have made them aware of but still keep reporting! This has caused me multiple denials and mental anguish that I can't even stand. I will not tolerate this anymore and will seek litigation if this is not handled!

Company: FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX for violating my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2. 

I submitted an identity theft block request regarding an account from First Citizens Bank ( NC ). XXXX XXXX initially blocked the account but later reinserted it, claiming it was accurate. This reinsertion is improper and contradicts the findings of XXXX, which has already permanently removed this same account from my report as identity theft. 

XXXX XXXX actions are inconsistent, unfair, and in direct violation of the FCRA, which prohibits consumer reporting agencies from reinserting information related to identity theft unless it can be certified as correct. I have already provided FTC and police reports, government-issued ID, and proof of address. 

I am requesting that the CFPB require XXXX XXXX to : 1. Permanently delete the First Citizens Bank ( NC ) account from my file. 
2. Confirm compliance with the FCRAs identity theft block provisions. 
3. Prevent any further reinsertion of this fraudulent information.

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am a victim of identity theft. I recently discovered that Early Warning Services has my personal information in its system, even though I never authorized any accounts or activity that would legitimately place me in their database. 

I filed an FTC Identity Theft Report ( # XXXX, dated XX/XX/year>2025 ) and provided supporting documentation, including my California ID, Social Security card, and utility bill. Despite this, XXXX continues to maintain records under my name that are preventing me from opening and maintaining normal banking relationships.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) requires XXXX  to block fraudulent information identified as identity theft within 4 business days of receiving proper proof.

609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ) entitles me to a full disclosure of my file, including all entities that have accessed my data.

611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) requires a reasonable reinvestigation and deletion of inaccurate or unverifiable information. 

XXXX  failure to comply with these obligations is causing ongoing harm.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Issues : The account is closed/charged-off but continues to be reported as active and past due. 

The account is being re-aged, showing new charge-offs ( CO ) every month from XXXX through XXXX, even though the last payment was in XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX  shows a {$740.00} balance against a {$500.00} limit, which inflates utilization and misrepresents my credit profile. 

Payment history is inconsistent and shows derogatory data well after the last activity. 

If the Date of First Delinquency ( DOFD ) was before XX/XX/XXXX, this account is more than 7 years old and should no longer be reported. 

Both XXXX  and the furnisher have independent legal duties under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : Furnishers duty : FCRA 623 ( a ) to report only accurate information. 

XXXX duty : FCRA 607 ( b ) to ensure maximum possible accuracy. 
By continuing to report in this way, both parties are in violation of federal law.
