Company: Rausch Sturm LLP
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
The automated system did not have my problem available for selection. My issue is that I can not contact the company who has my debt no matter how hard I try. They send me threatening letters and then provide a phone number for their office and a website and an email address. I have called their office number at least XXXX times over the last few months. And since they do not answer, I leave detailed messages each time. I have emailed them on more than XXXX occasion, getting no reply at all. Their website has a contact us feature where you can send them a message. I have tried this multiple times and when you hit submit it just says " error ''. The company is Rausch Sturm LLP, based out of XXXX. I work extremely part time and make less than XXXX per year. They recently drained every XXXX from my bank account with no warning. I am a XXXX XXXX XXXX, with XXXX year to go on my graduation. I am trying to finish school so I will be able to pay my debt back. But because of them draining my account to XXXX, I will not be able to afford food, or gas to get to school, and will have to drop out. I have read the limit for wage garnishment in Oklahoma ( the state I live in ) via XXXX is 25 %, with that number usually lower for people in extreme poverty like myself. I don't know how 100 % of someone's bank account is even legal or possible but they did it. I just need some help because this seems extremely illegal, especially considering how many times I have tried to contact them with no answer. Please help.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Let me be direct I never applied for credit, services, or any transaction with this company that would warrant them pulling my credit report. I never signed or submitted any application, nor did I provide verbal or written consent authorizing access to my credit file. 

Under FCRA Section 604, a party must have a legitimate reason and consumer authorization to access a credit report. This company had neither. This means their inquiry constitutes an unauthorized pull plain and simple.

Whether this was the result of internal error, misidentification, or even potential identity theft, it is your legal obligation as a credit reporting agency to investigate and remove any inquiry that does not meet the FCRAs standards.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: SIMMONS FIRST NATIONAL CORPORATION
State: AR

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, Simmons Bank accessed my personal credit report without my knowledge or written consent. I never submitted a new credit application or authorized a credit inquiry. At the time of the pull, the loan had already matured, and no new agreement was in place. The inquiry was unexpected and lacked any permissible purpose under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) of the FCRA, a consumer report may only be obtained for specific permissible purposessuch as in connection with a credit transaction initiated by the consumer or for account review of an existing credit relationship. Because no active application or signed extension existed, and I was not requesting additional credit, Simmons Bank had no valid reason to access my personal credit report. 

After I raised the issue, Simmons Bank confirmed in writing that it pulled my credit and later submitted a request to remove the inquiry. However, the bank has not provided any signed documentation authorizing the inquiry. I specifically requested the guarantor disclosure they claim justifies it but have not received a copy. 

This unauthorized inquiry negatively affected my XXXX XXXX and caused financial harm. Despite my efforts to resolve the matter directly with Simmons Bank and its legal counsel, no resolution has been reached. I request formal review, appropriate enforcement action, and compensation for the adverse credit impact in accordance with applicable law.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Ive recently discovered several late payment notations on my credit report that are completely false, and I want to make it clear that I will not tolerate these inaccuracies being used to misjudge my financial character. These harmful entries are dragging down my credit score, affecting my access to opportunities, and putting unnecessary strain on my mental and emotional health. Some of these alleged late payments were in fact made on time, while others may stem from clerical mistakes or internal processing delays that were never communicated to me.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that every piece of data on a consumer report be factually accurate and verifiable by original documentation. That means if these late payment entries can not be backed up with real, dated billing statements or signed agreements, they should not be reported at all. I am demanding that these entries be immediately corrected or removed, depending on what the documentation proves. If the credit reporting agencies or furnishers continue to ignore this matter, I will interpret that as a willful and deliberate violation of federal lawand respond accordingly. I deserve better, and I will fight until this is made right.
