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

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against ChexSystems , Inc. regarding their inaccurate and incomplete reporting which has resulted in the denial of a new bank account. 

Key Facts : On XX/XX/XXXX, I applied to open a new checking/savings account at XXXX XXXX  and XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

My applications were denied based on information provided by ChexSystems. The financial institutions provided me with an adverse action notice stating this. The information is inaccurate and I have provided supporting documentation to ChexSystems to prove this. 

Upon attempting to review my ChexSystems consumer report, I was repeatedly blocked, experiencing major issues with accessing my report and personal information. 

I have made multiple attempts to resolve this issue directly with ChexSystems. Between XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX XXXX disputes via website and phone. Despite several requests over XXXX days I never received a One Time code to manage the security freeze, reset my password or verify the email used or verify the phone number on record. XXXX minutes into the phone call today, the call with the Chex Systems agent XXXX XXXX XXXX disconnected. 

Despite my efforts, ChexSystems has failed to conduct a timely and reasonable reinvestigation of this disputed information as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The information remains on my report, and I have been unable to open a new bank account. 

I believe ChexSystems is in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Sections : Section 607 ( b ) - Accuracy of Information : ChexSystems failed to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they reported about me.

Section 611 - Dispute Procedure : ChexSystems has not completed a reasonable reinvestigation of my dispute in a timely manner, as required by law. 

Harm Caused : As a direct result of ChexSystems ' inaccurate reporting, I have been denied access to a basic financial service and have suffered financial and emotional distress. I have been unable to open a checking account, which is a fundamental requirement for managing my finances.

Relief Requested : I request that the CFPB investigate this matter and require ChexSystems to take the following actions : Immediately correct or permanently remove the inaccurate information from my consumer report. 

Provide me with a corrected consumer report. 

Take steps to ensure that all future reporting is accurate and in compliance with the FCRA. 

I would attach a copy of my ChexSystems report if I could access it. The adverse action notice from the bank is are attached. 

Thank you for your attention to this serious matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

I am filing this formal complaint under FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) requesting that TransUnion immediately block and permanently remove multiple fraudulent accounts, including collections, charge-offs, late payments, and hard inquiries, that were added to my credit report without my knowledge or authorization. These accounts are the direct result of fraudulent activity, not any legitimate consumer transaction, and I have provided a valid FTC Fraud Report # XXXX along with supporting documentation, including proof that my personal data was compromised in the XXXX data breach. Specifically, TransUnion is inaccurately reporting a XXXX credit card account ending in XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  from XX/XX/year> with a reported balance of {$0.00}, as well as a XXXX XXXX account ending in XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX from XX/XX/year> with a reported balance of {$0.00}.

It is the credit bureaus legal obligation under the FCRA to review and block fraudulent, inaccurate, or incomplete information from a consumers file within four ( 4 ) business days of receiving proper documentation. I am demanding the immediate removal of all fraudulent items, a stop to all related collection activity, and confirmation that this dispute has been escalated for manual investigation, not automated processing. Failure to act in accordance with federal law may result in further legal action to protect my consumer rights.
