EXPERIAN has repeatedly violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by reporting inaccurate and unauthorized inquiry on my credit report, despite multiple complaints and disputes.

State: PA

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.

Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: Rowland Avenue Management, Inc. A/KA Columbia Debt Recovery, LLC d/b/a Genesis
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year>, I vacated my apartment in XXXX and later discovered that a debt totaling {$11000.00} was sent to collections. I never received a proper breakdown or itemized validation of the charges, only a one-page summary listing lump-sum categories such as rent, legal fees, and utilities, without dates, monthly balances, or payment history. 

The collection agency claims this one-page document constitutes proper validation, but it does not comply with federal debt collection requirements. 

I have requested a detailed ledger that includes the months allegedly unpaid, the amounts due per month, and how the total was calculated, but have not received this to date. 

I am requesting the CFPBs assistance in compelling the company to provide full and compliant validation of this debt and to remove the tradeline from my credit report if they are unable to do so.

XX/XX/year> WellsFargo Bank closed my XXXXXXXX XXXX  account in their error, they're refusing to compensate and acknowledge the error but placing blame on myself and my business. However, I do have a letter from the branch accepting responsibility and stating it was due to bank error. 12 U.S. Code 1818 Enforcement by Federal Banking Agencies ( FDIC/OCC/FRB ) This section of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act gives regulators authority to penalize banks for unsafe or unsound banking practices, including negligence and harm to customers.

Improper account closures due to internal errors may be deemed an unsafe or unsound practice if they result in harm to the public or violate the bank 's fiduciary duties. 

If a bank causes reputation or financial harm through mismanagement or failure to follow its internal procedures, this can fall under the FDIC 's or OCCs enforcement authority. Executive Office Employees are not being honest and are mishandling this situation

Company: Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (FNIS)

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing several inaccuracies currently appearing on my credit report, specifically unauthorized and inaccurate accounts and credit inquiries that I did not initiate or approve. These entries represent a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly 15 U.S. Code 1681i, which requires a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates that information reported must be accurate to the maximum extent possible. In addition, I am disputing a potentially misreported late payment. According to 15 U.S.C. 1666b, creditors must allow at least 21 days between the statement date and the payment due date before classifying a payment as late. Based on my records, this standard may not have been met, or the payment was submitted on time and inaccurately reported as delinquent.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing multiple closed accounts that are still being reported on my credit reports from TransUnion, Experian, and XXXX. These accounts are outdated, unverifiable, or no longer meet the permissible purpose requirements under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

According to 15 U.S. Code 1681c, accounts that are obsolete or past the 7-year reporting limit should no longer appear on my report. In addition, under 15 U.S. Code 1681b, the continued reporting of these closed accounts without my consent or a valid permissible purpose is a violation of my consumer rights.

This outdated and inaccurate reporting is negatively affecting my credit score and financial opportunities. I have attempted to resolve this directly with the credit bureaus but have been unsuccessful. I am requesting that the CFPB investigate this matter and ensure all non-compliant closed accounts are removed from my credit report.
