Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: Round Up Ventures, L.P.
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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX - XXXX. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
After finally just getting my account reopened through the intervening of the CFPB after Venmo accused me of submitting a fake ID as a verification document which is a crime by the way and an abhorrent accusation to make against a customer Venmos XXXX  team finally reopened my account. NOW I can not add any cards. I have tried to add every card I own. 
So I dont want to hear try another card or maybe its just that bank or maybe its that type of card or try a debit instead of a credit or try a debit instead of a credit or wait a few weeks and try again. Ive waited months. Its not fixing itself. 
You owe me big time for the absolute emotional turmoil this has caused me chasing you to get your XXXX  XXXX services to work for me. Its appalling how horrible you are. And PayPal was just as disgusting with my mother many years ago. No wonder youre associated. I wish so many people didnt use you then I wouldnt have to waste my time.

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX - XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. 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 me 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.

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 XXXX ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


XXXX XXXX - XXXX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section XXXX ( b ). 


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 XXXX and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Company: AR Resources, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
AR resources calling from XXXX leaving generic robo calls without leaving any information on who they are trying to contact or why. I called AR resources last XXXX after receiving a threat in the mail over a medical debt, to which they refused to tell me who the medical provider was and how to contact them. Rude and unhelpful agents. They told me I had the original bill, which I did not, and would not help me. 

I called around many, many medical agencies and finally received a XXXX who helped me and apologized profusely as they never did sent me a bill, nor did they bill my insurance and sent info to AR resources for full balance. She emailed AR Resources to tell them to immediately stop all contact with me. This matter was resolved and closed.

I then received 2 robo calls on XX/XX/year> at XXXX, they left 1 robo call voicemail, again not leaving the name of the person they are trying to reach or any way of knowing why they are calling again.

Complaint narrative:
EMAILED TO XXXX, Today, XX/XX/XXXX : On XX/XX/XXXX, I had an email from Experian that my FICO score had increased, and I was directed to go to my Experian account to verify.

I did so, but received no information regarding a change to my credit score.

It was recommended to freeze my credit score ; to avoid solicitations from banks, credit cards and other lending institutions. 
I did go ahead and freeze Experian, XXXX and XXXX. 

At no time was I told that I would be charged {$25.00} by Experian, or that I was signing up for an Experian Creditworks Premium account. I do not want this service ; and I just canceled it upon receiving my bank statement.

I consider this false and misleading advertising, and would like you to refund the {$25.00} that you charged me.

Please contact me to confirm you have received this complaint. If I do not hear back within a week, I will send a complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
My account with the company has always been in good standing, and I have never been late with a payment. I have a stellar payment history with XXXX XXXX, with all payments set up on Autopay. The reported late payment is due to a systematic error on their part in processing my payment. 

This is a clear billing error by the company and does not reflect my actual payment history, which is a violation of USC Code 1681eb. This mistake has significantly harmed my reputation, character, lifestyle, and family.

I demand that the late payment reported in the specified months be removed.

The company is not in compliance with 15 USC 1666b, which outlines the requirements for treating a payment as late. They reported my payment as late without following the law.

According to 15 USC 1666b ( a ), a creditor can not consider a payment late if they have not adopted reasonable procedures to ensure that each periodic statement, including the information required by section 1637 ( b ), is sent to the consumer at least 21 days before the due date.

The company failed to send the periodic statement and the necessary disclosures as required by section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date in good faith pursuant to rule 1002, but this proof was never provided. 

This situation is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and unjust to me as a consumer. 

Please remove the late payments from my consumer reports.

Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
The mortgage on my residence has been serviced by PNC Bank since XX/XX/XXXX. Since that time, all payments have been made on time, and there has been no default of the loan. 

On XX/XX/XXXX the comaker on my mortgage filed a XXXX  XXXX bankruptcy case. Payments have continued to be paid on time. On XX/XX/XXXX PNC Bank generated a letter that I received advising that negative information was provided to the credit reporting agencies. Within the next month, each of the credit reporting agencies reported that my mortgage was paid and there was no longer a balance due for the account. This was far from the actual facts. I have contacted PNC and was directed to a representative that handled accounts that were involved in a bankruptcy. I was advised the even though I was not involved in the bankruptcy that the account for their purposes was coded as in bankruptcy. Furthermore, I inquired about having accurate information reported to the credit bureau agencies with regard to the credit report. Additionally, I was advised that they would not report updated information until a time that the comaker on the loan had completed their payment plan. The mortgage is not one of the accounts that is being paid within the XXXX  XXXX plan. 

After that time, I filed disputes with each of the credit bureau agencies concerning the information reported by PNC Bank. After the investigation by XXXX XXXX, they deleted the account from the bureau. I called XXXX XXXX and the representative advised they could not help, and I would need to have PNC Bank report information to have the account listed on my bureau. XXXX conducted a review of my dispute, but at the end of the investigation did not update any information. The same was the case with XXXX. 

By PNC Bank not reporting information on my mortgage to the credit reporting agencies, this has resulted in my credit score decreasing by approximately 30 points.
