Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularlyin light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. The lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> Credit Reporting Agency MED DATA SYS ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Re : Dispute of Collection Account Account Number : XXXX Creditor : MED DATA SYS Dear CFPB, I am writing to formally dispute the above-referenced collection account reported on my credit file. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) and 611, I am requesting verification of this debt, as well as the specific legal basis for this entry. 

After reviewing my records, I found no written agreement or signed contract with MED DATA SYS authorizing them to collect or report this debt. As per FCRA guidelines, information included in my credit report must be 100 % accurate, verifiable, and substantiated. Since this collection account lacks a written agreement or valid documentation establishing my liability, it must be removed immediately. 

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 809 ( b ), I am requesting that MED DATA SYS provide all supporting documentation, including the original agreement and proof of validation, within 30 days. If such proof can not be produced, I demand that this entry be removed from my credit file to ensure compliance with federal law. 

This inaccurate reporting is adversely affecting my credit score and financial standing. I kindly request that this matter be addressed promptly. Please complete your investigation and notify me in writing of your findings within the 30-day period, as required by law. 

Should the investigation fail to confirm the accuracy of this account, I demand its immediate deletion from my credit report. 

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

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Equifax and XXXX have failed to fulfill their legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to reasonably reinvestigate disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Equifax and XXXX, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to notify consumers of dispute outcomes adequately. These failures align with my experience, where Equifax and XXXX have neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Equifax and XXXX 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I want to inform you of my concerns about my Zelle transactions this past year. I am not sure if Zelle is mishandling disputes or if they are completely clueless when it comes to transactions coming through bank accounts. My financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my discrepancies and investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that they were recovering any losses on their part but that was it, nothing came from it. The CFPB findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but also has allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system leaving us vulnerable to scams.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Transunion for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report.

Despite my submissions, Transunion 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, Transunion '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 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Transunion complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Transunion 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

This is the account I have marked inaccurate : XXXX
