Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally submit a complaint regarding Pnc Bank 's handling of a charged-off account ( Account No. XXXX ). This account reflects a charge-off amount of {$18000.00}, which has been reported as income to the IRS, according to IRS Publication 4681. However, Pnc Bank has failed to issue a Form 1099-C to me, as required in cases of discharged debt that is no longer being collected.

Pnc Bank asserts that they are still collecting on this charged-off debt, which conflicts with their reporting to the IRS. If the company is actively collecting on the account, it can not rightfully classify it as a charge-off and report it as taxable income to the IRS. 

Furthermore, Pnc Bank is in apparent violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), under USC Code 1681. They continue to report this charge-off month after month on my credit report, despite their claim of actively collecting the debt. This raises concerns about their accuracy in both IRS reporting and compliance with credit reporting standards. 

I am requesting the following actions : Immediate Removal of Charge-Off Reporting : If Pnc Bank is actively collecting on this account, it should no longer be reported as a charge-off to either credit bureaus or the IRS. 

Investigation of Potential Fraudulent Practices : I believe Pnc Bank 's actionsreporting this debt to the IRS while still attempting collectionmay constitute fraud under Publication 4681 guidelines. 

Clear Documentation or Issuance of 1099-C : If Pnc Bank does indeed consider this debt discharged, they must issue a Form 1099-C promptly to reflect it correctly. 
Additionally, I am contacting the IRS regarding this matter to request a thorough investigation into Pnc Banks practices of potentially misrepresenting discharged debts as ongoing charge-offs while also declaring them as income to the IRS. 

I urge the CFPB to escalate this matter for immediate review to ensure Pnc Bank complies with all applicable laws and regulations. Thank you for your prompt attention to this serious issue. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2025

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles handling 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. I was informed that the return of funds would be impossible to retrieve and that these transactions were infeasible. The CFPB findings indicate that Zelle has not neglected to protect consumers but allowed repeated offenders to exploit the systems leaving users vulnerable to scams. The lacks of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises major concerns about consumers safety.

Complaint narrative:
This bank is absolutely horrendous. I feel like it's 2005 trying to do business with them. What bank still uses deposit confirmations as a " security '' measure to connect a bank account? GARBAGE Banks, that's who. This is just an excuse to hold my money hostage. 

I only have this account because I am forced to by my employer. It really isn't even worth the matching funds my employer provides. Yes that's right I almost would rather LOSE HUNDREDS than have to deal with this dumpster fire of a bank. And don't get me started on their junk fees. 

I hope they go bankrupt or someone better buys them out. Can't say it enough. HsaBank it absolute garbage

Complaint narrative:
I hope this complaint finds you well. I have expressed numerous times over the years especially the past year to have EXPERIAN accurately verify my account. I have sent proof of my entity, proof of the other bureaus deleting the alleged accounts due to lack of proof. I've also expressed that I have the capacity to under my federally protected rights. They keep sending emails and stall letters about the dispute being accurate. They have NEVER provided me PROOF of ANY documentation of my wet-ink signature, that proves these alleged accounts belong to me. EXPERIAN has successfully humiliated me. As a consumer under my federally protected rights, I have NOT given any company, or persons written instructions or verbal permission to list these alleged accounts. THAT IS A VIOLATION ACCORDING TO 15 U.S.C 1681b. I will not keep putting up with these violations and will be seeking litigation in a small claims court against your company, seeking {$1000.00} for EACH violation for EACH month for DEFAMATION, NEGLIGENT ENABLEMENT OF IDENTITY FRAUD, VIOLATIONS FOR THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT, FINANCIAL INJURY, PENALTY OF PERJURY ( 18 USC 1028 AGGRAVATED IDENTITY THEFT ), VIOLATIONS OF 15 USC 1692g, 15 USC 1692a ( ABUSIVE PRACTICES ), 15 USC 1681b ( PERMISSIBLE PURPOSES OF CONSUMER REPORTS ), 15 USC 1681 4A B2 ( MISLEADING FALSE REPORTING ), 15 USC 1666b ( TIMING OF PAYMENTS ).
