Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's 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 CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams.

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: Halsted Financial Services, LLC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I received a text message from XXXX XXXX, identifying itself as a debt collector for XXXX XXXX XXXX, regarding a XXXX XXXX XXXX  account. The text stated that XXXX XXXX XXXX is the current creditor, and it provided a link to a portal for managing the debt. However, I have never received a formal letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX notifying me of their authority to collect this debt. 

Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), debt collectors are required to provide a written notice within five days of initial communication, including details about the debt, the name of the original creditor, and information on how to dispute the debt. Neither XXXX XXXX XXXX nor XXXX XXXX has sent me this required notice. 

Additionally, I was never informed by XXXX XXXX XXXX, that my account was sold or transferred to XXXX XXXX XXXX. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), creditors are required to notify consumers when their debt is transferred to another party. This lack of notification leaves me unsure whether XXXX or XXXX XXXX has legitimate authority to collect this debt. 

The text message has caused concern about the security of my personal information and the possibility of fraud. Without proper validation of the debt, I fear my data may have been improperly shared or accessed. I request that the companies involved provide : 1. Proof of debt ownership and transfer.

2. A copy of the written validation notice.

3. Evidence of compliance with legal requirements to notify me of the transfer.

I also ask that this situation be investigated for possible violations of the FDCPA, FCRA, and any applicable privacy laws.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the fair credit reporting act ( FCRA ) to conduct reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts resolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experians inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.
