Company: Hayt Hayt & Landau, P.L. (FL)
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request the reinsertion of accurate information to my credit report under the provisions of **15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ) ** and **15 U.S.C. 1i ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ** following the deletion or dispute of that information. I understand that these provisions protect my right to have information reinserted on my credit file if it was removed in error, particularly when a credit reporting agency has reason to believe that the information is inaccurate or incomplete. 

As outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I believe that the following items, which were previously disputed and subsequently removed from my credit report, should be reintegrated as they meet the criteria for accuracy, or were removed without sufficient basis. Here are the details of the information in question : Under **15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ) **, I request that the deleted information be reinserted to reflect its accurate status, as required by the law. The Fair Credit Reporting Act mandates that information which has been deleted in error or due to inaccurate reporting must be reinserted within a reasonable time frame if substantiated. Additionally, under **15 U.S.C. 1i ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) **, I believe the disputed item ( s ) in question were improperly removed or were subject to wrongful dispute, and therefore, I request they be returned to my file.

If you need further documentation or clarification to support my request for reinsertion, I am happy to provide the necessary materials. Please respond within 30 days as required by federal law. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Company: Block, Inc.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my frustration with Cash Apps lack of accessible customer support, which has caused me financial loss and privacy concerns on multiple occasions. For the past two years, I have repeatedly faced issues with transactions and disputes, only to find that Cash App does not offer a 1-800 number for immediate assistance. Additionally, their in-app chat support is rarely available when I need it most, leaving me without any reliable way to resolve urgent problems. 

Because of this ongoing issue, I have lost money and experienced breaches of privacy, with no effective way to get timely help. It is unacceptable for a financial service to operate without a proper customer support system, and the continued lack of accountability has only added to my frustration. I believe users deserve direct and reliable support, especially when dealing with financial transactions and sensitive information.
