Complaint narrative:
I have pulled my Credit report recently and seen this account sbnaselflendr on my credit report as late. This account was NEVER late. I have paid this account up to the amount I could which was around {$520.00} if im not mistaken. I had to stop paying on the account due to me moving and requested a my payout which is the amount I paid so far on the account. Also they give you the to piton  to cash your check out early. This information on the credit report is reporting wrong I have statements and more making on time payments up until I requested the amount to be sent by mail because I knew I wasn't going to be able to pay any longer.They have the XXXX I requested the amount by mail as LATE and its not late and was never late. I actually only had about one more payment left and I already knew I did but wasn't going to be able to make it thats why I requested my amount early! This account needs to be updated to XXXX  because I was never late AT ALL when I requested the amount I paid so XXXX which was around {$500.00} dollars they sent it now I see they marked late on from the time I requested the check of the balance I paid! Even on the terms it stated we can request our amount we paid early and I did that but to report late is a lie and misleading. I was never late. I would actually like to point out the fcra law thats being violated as well. Per FCRA 15 USC 1681 A ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) -Exclusions- transactions are not included on the credit report. LATE PAYMENTS ARE A FORM OF A TRANSACTION. With late payments reporting to the credit report this is a direct violation of the FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year>, I discovered unauthorized transactions on my Navy Federal credit card related to XXXX ads. I promptly reported these charges as fraudulent to Navy Federal. Initially, they partially credited my account, acknowledging the fraud, but did not refund the full disputed amount of approximately {$4000.00}. 

As a XXXX XXXX  living with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I am particularly vulnerable to financial stress and unexpected situations like this. This ongoing issue with Navy Federal has significantly impacted my mental and emotional well-being. Over the next few months, I diligently followed up and provided every piece of documentation they requested. Despite my efforts, Navy Federal repeatedly delayed the resolution, citing missing or inadequate documentation. 

Most recently, I provided invoices and other evidence directly from XXXX ad platform, including documentation showing that my ad account was disabled due to suspicious activity. However, upon receiving these documents, Navy Federal abruptly claimed that my case was now outside the dispute timeframe, despite previously indicating they needed more information to proceed. 

I believe this pattern of inconsistent communication and prolonged delays is an unfair practice, especially as Navy Federal initially recognized the fraud by issuing a partial refund. This situation has caused undue stress and financial strain on someone in my position. I am requesting the CFPBs assistance in urging Navy Federal to thoroughly investigate and resolve this matter fairly. Their initial acknowledgment of fraud should have led to a full refund, rather than partial reimbursement and ongoing delays.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.
