Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
The Department of Education loans ending in XXXX ( {$8300.00} ) and XXXX ( {$1300.00} ) remain disputed and unverifiable. Despite being marked " Resolved by Data Furnisher, '' the balances have not been validated as required by **15 USC 1681s-2** ( FCRA ). Further, under **16 CFR 602.3**, this unverifiable information must be deleted from my credit report.

As these loans fall under the jurisdiction of the Department of Education, the **Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA, 20 USC 1232g ) ** obligates the Department to ensure the accuracy of educational records and provide the right to correct errors. The inaccurate reporting of these balances violates both FERPA and the FCRA.

Additionally, under **15 USC 1666i** ( TILA ), I retain the right to dispute these debts. Given the lack of proper validation, I demand the immediate and permanent removal of these accounts from my credit report to ensure compliance with federal laws.

Complaint narrative:
I signed up for the Capital One Venture Card with a offer to get XXXX miles after spending {$500.00} in 3 months. I met the requirements but I did not receive the XXXX points so I called Capital One customer service on XX/XX/year> to find out why. The customer service representative said that I did not qualify for the offer but did not give a good explanation as to why. He just said that sometimes you can apply for the offer and we issue you a card but you may not receive the bonus. I feel like I should either be denied the card or given an option to not accept the card without the bonus. I did not see an opportunity to cancel my card application.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.

This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Complaint narrative:
I have called at least10 times to try and get someone on the line to assist us. The automated phone keeps trying to make me verify with old information I am trying to update. Phones change and emails change all the time. I am trying to update mine. I am a senior citizen and need a real person to assist me. There process is not working and I have absolutely no human assistance. I will never get pass the verify to update my new contact and correct information, because Experian robo system, keeps trying to make me verify with outdated information. I will never get the text verify or the email. Both are incorrect. We are in our XXXX 's and frustrated with Experian process of phone numbers ( XXXX we have called ). with no human customer service. We have no access no one available to help me with updating my account or online support. You never get to anyone. Just keep getting the same phone run around in circles. It is really sad and ridiculous. We had to file a complaint, which we hope goes somewhere. We could not even leave a message to ask someone to call us back and help. Very frustrating for elderly people. 
A simple task of updating our own information, is a nightmare with a machine trying to assist and it can't, we need a live customer service agent to help us at Experian credit bureau. Supposed to be careful and diligent with our information. We can't even get them on the phone. 
This is the reason why there are so many data breaches. Machines can not handle all calls. Some require human corrections, such as ours. We need to update because of two data breaches. We can not even get a person at Experian. They are not abiding by laws, rules, or regulations if you can't get them on the phone. There is no support then with our personal information. This needs to stop.
