Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's 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 CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed this to repeat and exploit the system. Leaving users vulnerable to scams. The lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: WA

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 ) 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 Experians inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint against Navy Federal Credit Union concerning multiple overdraft fees that I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds in my account at the time when transactions were authorized, I was charged overdraft fees due to the lagged posting of charges and credits. 

This issue appears to align with the recent findings from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), which highlighted similar practices by Navy Federal. These practices involve transactions being settled against insufficient balances, despite the fact that funds were initially available when the transactions were authorized. 

I believe these practices are unfair and detrimental to account holders, and I respectfully request an investigation into my account and these practices. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.

Issue: Managing an account — Banking errors
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I have two checking accounts with Bank of America : XXXX that's XXXX years old and another about XXXX XXXX XXXX, that I opened with my then-wife. We recently divorced so we wanted to close the old account. 

On Monday XX/XX/XXXX I call in bank of America and ask if it's possible to close the former over the phone, and they say yes no problem. I transfer the little bit of money from the account count I want to delete to my personal account, as instructed, and the rep assures me that the right account will be deleted. 

A couple hours later I find out the rep closed my personal account. The one I wanted to keep. I call in again and they apologize and tell me that this will get fixed by the next morning. 

The next morning comes and of course they didn't fix the problem. So I call in again and it's now been about XXXX hours on the phone over the past 24 hours with the bank. They route me from department to department until finally I get a hold of someone who restores my checking account and associated debit card. This was yesterday, XX/XX/XXXX. 

Today I try to buy some food and and guess what happened. These people closed my debit card, and when I check my app is says it was reported lost or stolen ( which is untrue ). I spend ANOTHER hour on the phone trying to fix this, and finally the rep says she has to create an entirely new debit card ( not just a card replacement ) to send to me in order to fix this while situation. 

However the rep didn't do her job properly and there's no temporary card on my app like she said there would be. 

Every step of the way they have screwed up. I have never experienced such a prolonged series of acts of incompetence from a bank before. 

I don't want to spend another hour on the phone with them tomorrow to fix their massive mistakes.

Complaint narrative:
I noticed that there were some items on my credit report and I haven't the slightest clue where it came from. So, I requested validation ( in the form of original contracts ) from the bureau for each fraudulent account. I wanted to get to the bottom of who was using my identity and to get this information removed immediately. I sent a letter and and FTC report as the bureau requested 2 months ago and I still haven't received and original contracts, the method of verification, or who they spoke with at these companies and the information is still on my report.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: DE

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported in to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

XXXX never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
