Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I sent {$130.00} to a Cash App username XXXX XXXXXXXX, believing it to be a legitimate service provider. The user never delivered any service or responded to follow-ups. I reported this as fraud. 

Cash App opened XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX but later closed it, stating they couldnt confirm it was a scam. Despite providing details about the transaction and explaining I was scammed, they refused reimbursement. 

Their investigation did not appear to include outreach to the recipient or any attempt to assess the fraudulent nature of the transaction. I also expressed concern that the platform allows scammers to operate freely without consequences or user protections.

Complaint narrative:
back in XXXX or XXXX of XXXX  we called in to check about our prepayment penalty. we knew it existed but wondered when it would end. their agent told me that there is no prepayment penalty anymore. what we did with this information is we remodeled the house which cost about XXXX. we put it in the market and back in XXXX or XX/XX/year>, someone made an offer on it. escrow calls in to get a payoff quote and it was showing a prepayment penalty. it went downhill from here. we tried to ask if they can waive it since it was their mistake with giving us the wrong information. we offered to pay for the remaining months until XX/XX/year> where the prepayment penalty will end. but they said this is not allowed. we then called back in to get an updated one towards the end of XXXX XXXX and said we had to wait for XX/XX/XXXX so that the prepayment penalty will be taken off and that it would be instant. this was not the case. so i called in today, they escalated it and they said it will be within the hour. XXXX hrs has passed and theres still no word on it. this is mis information over and over again. they have a duty to us also and not just their investor. this has caused me the remodel which i had to shell out cash on hand. mortgages for several months waiting on this. and yet they cant even take off the prepayment penalty when they said they would. horrible horrible company, first time ive dealt with this and i dont think it should happen to others.

Company: National Credit Systems,Inc.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2025, I sent a written dispute letter to National Credit Systems , Inc. regarding an alleged debt for Applewood at the Coves Apartments in the amount of {$22000.00} Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the debt collector must validate the debt before continuing any collection activities or reporting it to the credit bureaus.

Despite allowing more than 90 days since my original dispute, I have not received any validation or documentation proving that I am legally obligated to pay this debt.

Additionally, the account remains on my credit report without proper validation. This violates both federal law and my consumer rights, as collection activities must cease until verification is provided. 

I am requesting that the CFPB : XXXX. Investigate National Credit Systems , Inc. for failure to comply with FDCPA and FCRA requirements. 
XXXX. Require removal of this account from all credit reports if the debt can not be validated. 
XXXX. Ensure that no further collection activity occurs unless proper documentation is provided. 

Attachments : Original dispute letter sent on XX/XX/2025. 
Certified mail receipt and proof of delivery. 
Fire department incident report ( cause : undetermined ). 
Credit report showing the account still reported without validation.

This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within XXXX business days of you receiving this complaint. I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
The consumer reporting agency has willfully violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681b Permissible Purposes of Consumer Reports, by furnishing or reporting information on my credit file without any permissible purpose, written consent, or legal authorization. At no time did I grant authorization for this agency to obtain, use, or disclose my consumer information, and the continued reporting of such entries constitutes an unlawful act that compromises both the accuracy and integrity of my credit file. This misreporting has directly harmed my creditworthiness, caused emotional and financial distress, and placed undue barriers on my ability to secure credit, housing, and employment opportunities.
