Complaint narrative:
In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries. These are the following accounts need to be removed :

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I have identified serious billing errors under 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) on my credit report, including unverified late payment marks and the creditor 's failure to accurately reflect payments and credits. Despite my prior formal request for evidence substantiating these late marks, the creditor has failed to provide any legally required proof of investigation or verification. Furthermore, the creditor did not issue a proper billing statement at least 21 days before the due date, as mandated by law, rendering any late payment reporting invalid. This blatant disregard for accurate reporting is unacceptable. I demand that these inaccuracies be immediately corrected by updating the items to 'Paid as Agreed ' or removing them entirely from my credit report.

Product: Checking or savings account — Other banking product or service
Issue: Managing an account — Funds not handled or disbursed as instructed
Company: FISERV FINXACT CORE
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am a business owner using Stax ( a payment processor ) and their partner Fiserv ( the processing bank ) to handle customer transactions for my consulting business. Recently, my account was suddenly closed, and over {$8000.00} of my business revenue has been wrongfully withheld for a minimum of 90 days. 

This issue began when XXXX informed me that my account was under review due to an {$11000.00} transaction, which they claimed was flagged as unusual. However, XXXX was fully aware of my business model and expected transaction growth because I explicitly stated during the onboarding process that I was a startup business and that my transaction amounts would increase as the company grew. Despite this, they approved me as a merchant and allowed transactions without issue for nearly six months.

After providing all requested documentation ( bank statements, invoices, business details ), I was suddenly informed that my account was closed and my funds would be held for 90 days. Heres where the misrepresentation and deception began : - XXXX initially told me that the account closure and fund hold was a decision made by Fiserv. 
- When I contacted Fiserv directly, their representative told me my account was in good standing and not blocked. 
- After challenging XXXX with this information, they backtracked and claimed the Fiserv representative did not have access to full risk information. 
- Now, XXXX is claiming that the closure was due to my transactions being larger than signed/approved volume, despite my business growth being disclosed upfront and well within expectations. 
-At this point, I have received completely contradictory statements from both XXXX and Fiserv XXXX and no one is providing a clear, written explanation for why my funds are being held. XXXX is also attempting to discourage me from taking legal action by stating that they will no longer assist me if I pursue that routethis is another red flag. 

Why This Is a Major Issue : - Neither company is taking responsibility for the decision to withhold my funds, creating a runaround that prevents me from operating my business. 
- XXXX knowingly approved my business with the understanding that transaction amounts would increase, yet is now using that exact growth as an excuse to shut down my account. 
- I was told to wait for a letter in the mail explaining the decisionbut most financial institutions have secure messaging centers for immediate communication on urgent matters. 
- This appears to be an unjustified account closure with a deliberately vague process to keep my funds locked up longer than necessary. 
- I was fully vetted as a merchant when I applied, and the questions they asked during this review were already answered in my initial approval process.

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 CFPB recent administrative proceeding XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with the federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.
