Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal dispute regarding Equifax mishandling of my prior disputes and their failure to comply with the requirements of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). The CFPB 's recent lawsuit highlights systemic issues with Equifax handling of consumer disputes, which are directly relevant to my experience. 

Despite submitting evidence to support my dispute, Equifax failed to conduct a proper investigation. Specifically : Unjust Investigations : Equifax failed to convey the full details and supporting documentation of my dispute to the data furnisher. Instead, they appear to have accepted the furnishers response without question, even though it contradicted the evidence I provided. 

Failure to Provide Investigation Results : The response I received from Equifax was vague, confusing, and did not provide specific details of their investigation or evidence supporting their decision. 

Potential Improper Reinsertion of Inaccurate Information : I am concerned that Equifax may have improperly reinserted information I previously disputed and believed to be corrected.

Equifax actions appear to violate the following : FCRA 1681i ( a ) : Failure to conduct reasonable investigations of disputed information.

FCRA 1681i ( 5 ) ( B ) : Improper reinsertion of previously deleted information without proper notice.

CFPA Prohibitions : Engaging in unfair acts or practices by failing to ensure accurate investigations and providing misleading or ambiguous responses to consumers.

Reinvestigate the Disputed Information : Conduct a proper and thorough investigation of the disputed account and provide detailed results of your findings. 

Remove Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information : If Equifax or the furnisher can not verify the disputed account with evidence, delete it from my credit report immediately. 

Provide Investigation Details : Share all documentation you used to verify the disputed account, including records from the data furnisher. 

Ensure Compliance with the Law : Prevent improper reinsertion of any previously disputed or deleted information.

Complaint narrative:
I want to file a lawsuit against Zelle through the CFPB because of their failure to provide adequate protections against unauthorized transactions and their lack of accountability in resolving disputes. Despite their claims of being a secure platform, I experienced financial harm due to fraud or errors that they refused to address. Their deceptive practices and inadequate consumer protections have left me without recourse, and I believe their actions violate fair financial practices. Taking legal action is necessary to hold them accountable and seek resolution for the damages caused.

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 repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. 
This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the purchase and subsequent issues I have faced with three American Express eGift Cards I purchased online on XXXX XXXX XXXX. The total value of the purchase was {$1500.00}, with each card worth {$500.00}. The order number is XXXX, and the last three digits of the card numbers are # XXXX, # XXXX, and # XXXX, respectively. 

Initially, I received an email confirming the delivery of the eGift Cards, but I encountered significant difficulty in accessing the card details. Despite multiple attempts and considerable effort, including contacting your customer service by phone multiple times and waiting on hold for extended periods, I eventually managed to resolve the issue on my own. The details appeared to be restricted for security reasons. While I can appreciate the necessity of stringent security measures, the process was unnecessarily cumbersome and frustrating. 

Unfortunately, a far more serious issue emerged after obtaining the card details. When attempting to use these eGift Cards for online shopping, I discovered that many merchants declined them or expressed uncertainty regarding their validity. In several instances, transactions were outright rejected, either due to the merchants ' inability to verify my rightful ownership or for unspecified reasons. 

As a consumer, my primary motivation for purchasing these prepaid eGift Cards was to enjoy the convenience, portability, and security they are supposed to offer. However, these benefits have been completely overshadowed by the cards ' impracticality. Instead of a hassle-free payment method, these eGift Cards have become an undue burden, requiring me to expend time and effort to identify merchants who might accept them.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
Complaint Against Experian Regarding Inaccurate Credit Reporting and Failure to Address Disputes To Whom It May Concern, I am filing this complaint regarding Experians failure to correct inaccuracies on my credit report despite my efforts to dispute them. The unresolved inaccuracies have caused financial harm and significant frustration, as they continue to misrepresent my credit profile.

Despite submitting disputes directly to Experian, the following issues remain unaddressed : Information that is inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete. 
Discrepancies in account statuses, balances, or payment history. 
Information that can not be verified under the requirements of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

I have repeatedly attempted to work with Experian to resolve these inaccuracies, but they have failed to take corrective action or conduct a proper investigation as required by federal law. I am submitting this complaint to the CFPB because Experians handling of disputes appears to violate their obligations under the FCRA to ensure the accuracy of credit reports. 

Additionally, I am aware of the CFPBs legal actions against Experian, which highlight systemic problems in their handling of consumer disputes. My experience reflects similar issues, as Experian has not fulfilled their responsibility to provide a fair and accurate credit report or to investigate disputes thoroughly. 

I respectfully request that the CFPB : 1. Investigate Experians failure to correct inaccuracies on my credit report.

2. Ensure Experian complies with the FCRA by either verifying the disputed information or removing it if it can not be substantiated.

3. Address broader compliance concerns regarding Experians dispute resolution process. 

I have supporting documents to include at this time, the inaccuracies are clearly visible on my credit report and should be easily identifiable through a thorough review. 

This situation has caused undue stress and negatively impacted my financial stability. I trust the CFPB will investigate this matter and hold Experian accountable for their failure to comply with federal regulations.
