Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing a collection account reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX  with a balance of approximately {$2300.00}, originally owned by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for a XXXX XXXX credit  account. 

The debt was allegedly acquired by XXXX XXXX on or around XX/XX/XXXX, with the last payment reported as XX/XX/XXXX. I submitted a dispute with Experian in XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, requesting a full investigation and validation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

The credit bureau responded by verifying the account but failed to provide original documentation, including the signed credit agreement, full payment history, proof of debt ownership, and a breakdown of the balance owed. 

This is a violation of FCRA Section 611, which requires a reasonable investigation of disputed accounts. I am requesting that this account be permanently deleted from my credit file due to lack of proper verification and documentation.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 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.

Complaint narrative:
I am completely locked out of my account because I got a new phone number, and this is absolutely ridiculous.

I can not speak to a human in any capacity, when I call in, I verify my SSN, and I can not proceed unless I get an SMS to an old phone number I no longer have.

I can not submit a ticket, I can not contact corporate. This is absolutely hostile behavior towards the customer and not being able to control my credit information is wildly unacceptable.

Company: Block, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Cash App ( Block , Inc. ) due to inadequate customer service and unfair practices, which violate the Customer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). Specifically, Cash App failed to take timely and effective measures to prevent and address fraud on their platform, leaving my account vulnerable and unprotected. Furthermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress for these violations.

Complaint narrative:
I want my credit report to only reflect accurate information, which is why its important to verify the accuracy of this data rather than relying solely on what the data furnisher has provided. Its frustrating to see my credit get negatively affected by inaccuracies that arent my fault. I'm deeply concerned about these errors and they've been causing me stress and it's also impacting my ability to secure new credit. They are mixed, fraudulent information that Ive never authorized or benefited from. This situation is unfair. Hope you can address this soon to prevent further damage, please.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
My account with EXPERIAN was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be updated.

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.

EXPERIAN 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! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: MOHELA
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
I took out approximately {$350000.00} in federal student loans ( including XXXX XXXX and unsubsidized loans ) for XXXX XXXX  My loans are currently serviced by MOHELA. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I logged into my MOHELA account and observed that all of my loans were still showing an interest rate of 0.000 %, even though the federal student loan interest freeze officially ended on XX/XX/XXXX. 

Despite the displayed 0 % interest, my total loan balance has increased to approximately $ XXXX that interest has been accruing in the background while MOHELAs system misrepresented the rate. 

I have taken screenshots of this interest display and submitted a formal complaint to MOHELA via their secure messaging system on XX/XX/XXXX, requesting an audit, a reversal of improperly accrued interest, and a full explanation of the balance increase. As of this filing, I have not received a response. ( Note : This message was recently sent and I do expect a response. ) This misrepresentation has materially impacted my financial decision-making. I refrained from making payments, believing no interest was accruing. I believe MOHELAs inaccurate display is deceptive and has caused financial harm.
