Product: Debt collection — Medical debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: AR Resources, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I became aware of the matter when I was notified of a change in my credit report. To my knowledge, I have never been contacted or billed by the company alleging that it provided me with services nor the debt collector and I do not live in the county where the company appears to operate ( XXXX ). My credit has been impacted by an alleged debt that I know nothing about. If this is a legitimate debt and had I been contacted or billed, I would have paid the amount in full promptly. A company should not be permitted to pursue collections without billing the customer or contacting the customer about the bill. Information online regarding the company suggests that others have been billed or taken to collections for services they never asked for or received.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Early Warning Services [ Address ] XXXX, AZ Re : Dispute Case ID : XXXX Bank Name : XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. 
XXXX # : XXXX Account XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Dear Consumer Services, I am writing to formally dispute your recent findings regarding Dispute Case ID : XXXX. While I appreciate your prompt response, I must express my serious concerns regarding the assertion that the information in your file is accurate and complete. 

It has come to my attention that XXXX XXXX has provided information about me to Early Warning Consumer Services without my explicit consent. This action constitutes a violation of my privacy rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and related regulations. Additionally, the reporting of multiple accounts without my knowledge is unacceptable. 

Due to these privacy violations and the inaccurate nature of the information being reported, I hereby request the immediate removal of all accounts associated with my name from your records. The reporting of this information is damaging to my creditworthiness and is not in compliance with the FCRA. 

In light of these concerns, I also request a detailed explanation of the methods used to verify the accuracy of the reported information and the rationale behind your reporting practices. 

As indicated in your correspondence, I am entitled to submit a rebuttal statement. Therefore, I ask that you include this letter as part of my rebuttal in your records. Additionally, I request a copy of any updated report to be sent to any parties that received my file within the past two years for employment purposes or within the past six months for other purposes. 

Lastly, I would like a copy of your reinvestigation procedures, including the contact information for any furnishers of information relevant to my dispute. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your thorough review and response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Non-sufficient funds and associated fees
Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I have been disputing charges on my checking account for memberships and services that were canceled from XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and a few other recurring charges from XXXX. Each time Truist completes the investigation, they find that y claim was valid and return the funds from the invalid charges. Every time an investigation is completed, Truist has not returned the Insufficient funds fees associated with the charges on the claim. In addition Truist still has allowed the same creditors to charge my account month after month AFTER the months after the first dispute claim that was completed and settled. I do not understand why the bank would allow a company to continue to make charges on my account after the claim has been completed. I feel like this intention is deliberate to repeatedly take insufficient funds fees from customers. I am out of thousands of dollars due to this repeated offense and my bank account continues to stay in an overdrawn position because of these charges. This has happened on more than one account from multiple businesses. I also received astronomical fees weeks after a transaction for sending domestic wires that were different than expected, the employees were not clear on the wire instructions and what the fees were associated with wires.

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This debt collector has engaged in practices that violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). They have reported an account that I did not consent to, and there is no signed agreement from me authorizing it. A valid legal contract requires the signatures of both parties, and I was not involved in such an agreement. Furthermore, they failed to adhere to the proper 5-step validation process as mandated by the FDCPA. These actions clearly infringe upon my rights under the law, and I am entitled to compensation for these violations. I demand the immediate removal of this accountfrommyrecord.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request the removal of several unauthorized accounts and inquiries from my credit report. These accounts and inquiries are not associated with me, and I did not authorize their inclusion on my report. The presence of these inaccuracies is the result of a data breach that has adversely affected my credit standing, leading to a significant drop in my FICO score.

Upon a thorough review of my credit report, I identified multiple accounts and inquiries that I do not recognize or authorize. These inaccuracies have led to negative remarks on my credit report, which are unjustly damaging my credit score and financial reputation. 

The inclusion of these unauthorized accounts and inquiries has caused considerable stress and concern regarding my financial well-being. It is imperative that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history and activities. Therefore, I request an immediate investigation into these inaccuracies and the prompt removal of all unauthorized accounts and inquiries.
