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: 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 investigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has 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 disputes outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian inactions violate federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I attempted to verify my eligibility for the Frontier Airlines XXXX XXXX XXXX bonus miles offer through the website https : //card.loyaltystatus.com/frontier/. Despite using multiple eligible co-branded airline credit cards ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX, and XXXX from XXXX ), I consistently received an error message stating the card provided is not an eligible airline co-brand credit card type. This is a widespread issue with many other Barclays Frontier credit card holders as well. 

On XX/XX/year>, I contacted Frontier Airlines customer service. They informed me that this issue is not within their control and directed me to Barclays, stating it was a problem on Barclays ' side. 

On XX/XX/year>, I reached out to Barclays through multiple channels : 1. Called their customer service 2. Sent messages through the online portal when logged into my Barclays account 3. Attempted to contact their executive team Despite these efforts, Barclays has not provided any solution or workaround. They have not addressed the technical glitch in their verification system, which is preventing me and potentially many other customers from accessing the advertised promotion. 

This ongoing issue appears to be misleading consumers about their eligibility for the offer and preventing them from applying for a product they are interested in and qualified for. Barclays ' lack of support or action to fix this problem is concerning, as it affects their ability to deliver on advertised promotions. 

I request assistance in resolving this issue and ensuring that Barclays implements a functional verification system or provides an alternative method for customers to access the advertised promotion.

Complaint narrative:
Upon checking my credit report, I noticed a collection from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ). I do not know what this is for. It shows the original date the account was opened as XX/XX/year>. This company has not sent a letter to my address stating what this debt is for and the amount of the debt. To date I have not received any correspondence as to what this is about. They have not sent anything stating who this pertains to, the amount of the debt or any original contracts showing the creditor. This appeared on my credit report today without any communication as to what it is for. If I would have received something in the mail regarding this debt, I would have asked who is the original creditor, the original balance owed, statements, and original contract. This is a clear and intentional violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. To date I have not received any written communication regarding this debt, nor have. A debt collector must provide written notice that details the following : 1. The amount they think I owe 2. the name of the creditor 3. How to dispute the debt in writing To date I have not received anything along these guidelines, or I would have promptly responded disputing the debt.
