Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, Equifax consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax s actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPBs recent administrative proceeding ( file No 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provide consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

Company: CLGF Holdco 1, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
When I got the card I knew that there was an annual fee for the first year but then I was struggling with my payments recently but I'd always been on time except this payment last Thursday I called to see if I could put off the payment and they said no and that would be charged a late fee but they may wave it if I call back when I made the payment. I looked at my statement and it had a late fee and a strange monthly service fee like XXXX  when I asked about that they said that that was a monthly fee that I agreed to after the first year annual fee and I don't ever remember that and they said I could not have the fee removed because it was part of the agreement I made with them. So I just closed my account and will make the payments until it's paid off.

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC

Complaint narrative:
I am to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles 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 CFPBs findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving user vulnerable to scams. The lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumers safety.
