Consumer complaint received 2025-12-15 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Other personal consumer report
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing issue — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: LEXISNEXIS
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX I submitted a formal, written request for a copy of my consumer report. I submitted the request online at LexisNexis ' website along with a copy of my Pennsylvania driver 's license, my full SSN, DOB, etc. I did not receive the requested report but instead received a letter from LexisNexis ( dated XX/XX/XXXX, case # XXXX ) at my confirmed mailing address telling me they could not confirm my identity. Clearly that is false since they sent me a refusal letter to the confirmed address they have on file! LexisNexis played this same game with my wife and sent her running in circles for several months, so this is a pattern of abuse and disregard for federal law by LexisNexis. As of XX/XX/XXXX I still do not have a copy of said report, which the Fair Credit Reporting Act legally entitles me to.

I am a consumer attempting to correct inaccuracies on my Equifax credit report. Despite prior disputes, Equifax continues to report inaccurate and unverifiable information, in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Incorrect Previous Address Reporting : Equifax is reporting inaccurate prior address information that I did not provide or authorize. This inaccurate personal data contributes to potential mixed or mis-matched credit files and must be corrected or removed. 

Disputed Charged-Off Accounts : XXXX Account # XXXX ( Reported charge-off date : XX/XX/XXXX, balance {$0.00} ) XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX XXXX Reported charge-off date : XX/XX/XXXX, balance {$0.00} ) XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX ( Reported charge-off date XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, balance {$22000.00} ) These accounts are being reported without proper validation, accurate balances, or complete payment history. Equifax has failed to demonstrate that these accounts were verified using the required reasonable procedures under the FCRA. 

I am requesting that Equifax : Provide documented proof of verification from the original creditors Correct or delete inaccurate address information Remove any accounts that can not be fully verified for accuracy and completeness Failure to do so constitutes continued non-compliance with federal law.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

Issue: Money was not available when promised — 
Company: WESTERN UNION COMPANY, THE
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2025, I initiated an international direct-to-bank money transfer through Western Union in the amount of USD XXXX. The promised delivery date was XX/XX/2025. 

The funds were never credited to the receivers bank account. Western Union later stated the transfer was processed on XX/XX/2025, but the receivers bank statements for XXXX show no deposit of the funds. 

After I filed a complaint, Western Union contacted me and requested the receivers bank statements. I provided the complete XXXX statements, which confirm non-receipt of the funds. Western Union did not provide any official proof of credit such as a XXXX  number, XXXX  confirmation, or bank credit advice.

Western Union stopped communicating and reported the case as closed without resolving the missing funds. More than XXXX days have passed since the transfer was initiated. The funds remain undelivered. 

I am no longer requesting delivery. I am requesting a full refund due to non-receipt and failure to complete the transaction.
