Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: National Credit Adjusters, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I became aware of a collection account on my credit report that I believe is inaccurate and improperly reported. Upon discovery, I promptly initiated multiple disputes with the collection agency and credit bureaus to request validation of the debt. Despite these repeated efforts, the collection agency has failed to provide the legally required documentation, such as a detailed account statement, proof of debt ownership, or evidence that the debt is valid and mine. 
Instead of a proper response, I have received vague, non-responsive communications that do not address the issues I raised. The account continues to be listed on my credit report with inaccurate balances, dates, and status information, which is misleading and inconsistent with XXXX XXXX compliance standards. 
This failure to substantiate the debt and correct the reporting after multiple dispute attempts violates my consumer rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and other relevant federal statutes. The continued presence of this unverified collection is adversely affecting my creditworthiness and financial well being.

Company: Exeter Finance, LLC.
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX, I called Exeter Finance and was told by a representative that making a half payment would keep my account current and would not result in late reporting. Based on this assurance, I made the half payment.

On XXXX and again on XXXX, I submitted formal written disputes to Exeter regarding a newly reported 30-day late payment that appeared on my credit report. I requested documentation and clarification supporting their negative reporting, given the representatives previous guidance.

Exeter responded by form letter on XXXX ( stating the mark was valid after investigation ) and again on XXXX  ( calling my dispute " frivolous '' and not investigating further ), but never provided documentation or a detailed explanation.

On XXXX, I sent a final letter addressing the " frivolous '' response and stating I would escalate matters further, if need be. I also disputed the late mark with the credit bureaus, who sided with Exeter. I have not had a payment 30 or more days late and even was granted a one payment deferral that was moved to the end of my contract and was not reported as late. 

All relevant call recordings, transcripts, dispute letters, and responses are attached.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
This letter is a formal notice of dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding inaccurately reported late payment dates on the above-referenced account appearing in my credit file. 
The reported derogatory payment data is factually and legally incorrect and constitutes a violation of my rights under multiple federal statutes. 
Creditor Name : [ XXXX XXXX ] Account Number : [ XXXX ] Creditor Name : [ XXXX XXXX ] Account Number : [ XXXX ] FCRA SECTION 602 RIGHT TO PRIVACY ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ) Under the FCRA, I have a right to privacy in the handling and dissemination of my credit information. The credit bureau is not permitted to report data that is inaccurate, unverifiable, or misleading, especially when such reporting creates a false impression of delinquency. 
FCRA SECTION 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) NO WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION GIVEN ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies are prohibited from furnishing account information without the consumers written instructions. I have never given written authorization for the dissemination of false or misleading late payment information.

TILA SECTION 1666b IMPROPER LATE PAYMENT DESIGNATION ( 15 U.S.C. 1666b ) According to the Truth in Lending Act, a creditor may not treat a payment on an open-end credit account as late for any purpose if received by the due date or within the grace period.

Reporting a late payment that was not legally late is a blatant violation of this federal protection and exposes both the data furnisher and the credit reporting agency to liability under 15 U.S.C.

1681i.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I originally contacted Chase regarding this dispute and was told by a Chase manager that even though my XXXX chargeback window had technically closed, the matter could still be reviewed and resolved internally. Relying on this information, I provided additional documentation instead of escalating or refiling within the official XXXX window. 

I have since been informed that the claim can not be reopened because the window expired in XXXX. The misinformation I received directly caused me to lose my opportunity to recover funds for undelivered goods from a now-defunct and fraudulent merchant. 

I understand that Chases customer service calls are recorded for quality assurance purposes. I am requesting that Chase review the recordings of my original conversations from [ approximate date or month of the call, if you remember ], which will confirm that I was misinformed by their representative. 

I also requested that todays supervisor note in my account that I was refused a supervisor transfer earlier in the day, which further demonstrates a lack of transparent handling and proper escalation of my dispute. 

I am asking that this case be reviewed under Chases internal error resolution and goodwill adjustment policies, as the misinformation and escalation refusal were internal service errors that caused financial harm.

Issue: Struggling to pay your loan — 
Company: Solar Mosaic LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing regarding my solar loan ( Loan # XXXX ) associated with a system installed by XXXX XXXX in 2022. I have remained current on all payments, and I want to continue acting in good faith while ensuring that this loan accurately reflects fair and transparent terms. 

When this system was sold to me, the installer represented that it would eliminate or nearly eliminate my electricity bill. In practice, that has not occurred at all. Despite the system performing as expected from a technical standpoint, I continue to receive substantial utility bills, which contradicts the sales promises that influenced my decision to finance through Mosaic. 

In addition, I recently learned that Mosaic loans often include dealer fees or installer discounts, sometimes ranging from 2030 % of the contract price. This was never disclosed to me at the time of sale or financing. Given the total system cost of approximately {$42000.00} for XXXX kW, I now realize that the pricing was significantly above prevailing market rates ( i.e., 70 % above Texas market average ) in 2022, and the undisclosed financing markup may explain the discrepancy. The previously stated price, combined with the " your bill will go to basically zero '' sales claim highlights a significant misrepresentation.
