Equifax is showing I have 3 student loans as active with XXXX XXXX XXXX, when the servicing company changed over a year ago. Both XXXX  and XXXX have reported the accounts as closed with a {$0.00} balance. I have provided the transfer letter from the previous servicing company. Equifax refuses to report them as closed with a {$0.00} balance. When I inquired why they state they spoke with the previous servicing company and were told the account was still open with a balance. When I call the previous servicer they state they have not been contacted by Equifax and that my accounts with them have been transferred and they do not have any outstanding balance.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I recently applied for a XXXX XXXX loan, I was turned down and the denial letter from the bank listed Equifax as the reporting agency. They listed that I had 1.Serious Delinquency 's 2. number of accounts with delinquency 3. Too many Finance companies accounts 4. Length of time accounts have been established and 5. the FICO score is incorrect. 6.5 years ago I had to file for a XXXX XXXX bankruptcy after a serious injury and lose of income ( I realize it stays on my record for 10 years ), but since then I have worked hard to reestablish myself financially and have bought a number of large purchases and have paid them off in record time. I have 3 credit cards and they have been either not used or carry a small balance and are very current. I only barrowed money from one " Finance Company '' to pay for a tree removed from my property and they were paid off in 1 month., and I have had the same checking account with my Bank for the last 37 years. I presently have NO Delinquent Accounts since the XX/XX/2017 bankruptcy and my Fico score at this very reporting agency is XXXX, but the agency reports it as XXXX how am I to reestablish myself if the credit reporting agency keeps putting out incorrect information and I have no way to ask for a correction since it was from incorrect information in the first place. Equifax informed me that the FICO score is different and to to different companies? how the heck can there be so many different scores. Trying to fight this is almost impossible.

I reviewed my Consumer Reports and noticed that there was an inaccurate account ( XXXX ) on my credit report Account name XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Account number XXXX Account name XXXX Account number XXXX Account name XXXX XXXX BANK XXXX Account number XXXX Account name XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX Consumer Reporting Agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report Consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum accuracy.

I contacted " THE COMPANIES " and asked for them to investigate & remove the inaccurate account from my consumer report that they are illegally reporting and I requested specifically the alleged original application bearing my signature and they have not been able to provide such proof to me.

This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and these disputed items may not appear on my credit report if they can't be verified by any evidence or proof.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
on XXXX I submitted an online request to redeem rewards {$210.00} to personal checking account. the online system stated " Congratulations! Your rewards have been redeemed to your account. '' No other information provided. No delay or timeframe stated. 

I checked again XXXX, but same result. {$210.00} not credited to account. 

This appears to be yet another exampe of well fargo systems not accurately disclosing facts and details of results ( I have submitted many internal reports to wells fargo of system problems, glitches, and misrepresentations ). 

I called rewards department and they immediately disclosed that online redeeming can take 5 to 7 days ( business days? ) I requested several details including a ) why system shows as processed on the rewards site and available ( very opposite of what rep told me ), b ) why delayed, why not automated, why not staffed properly? 

As usual I received no useful answers to any of my questions. I explained I was filing a complaint and they offered to transfer me to file a complain, but that transfer simply took me back to the same queue ( which happens most of the time ). 

I find wells fargo lack of attention to detail and having their online systems glitch and totally misrepresent what I am told on the phone, unacceptable. They need to seriously hire a competent group to go through the website and these types of complaints and investigate glitches and disclosures and correct. It is concerning a bank can get so much wrong on the their systems. 

Another example is online balance tranfser request for new credit card. I was misinformed via phone I could initiate balance transfer while new card was in transit ( in XXXX ). when system would not allow and they could not due via phone, I escalated. Supervisor informed me it is NOT possible until card received, and rep totally mis-informed me. In XXXX, i did to 1 balance transfer online, but several follow-up attempts to do another transfer failed over the next week. Phone support couldn't explain why system locked out online balance transfers even days after earlier transfer was processed. I filed wells fargo complaint via phone, and system finally unlocked days later, but follow-up on details could not be explained by Wells Fargo XXXX I have the impression Wells Fargo doesn't follow-up or track these system problems due to lack of information I could obtain on the types of problems with follow-ups days and weeks later.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute certain inaccuracies present in my Equifax credit report. On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Equifax regarding these discrepancies, yet I have not received a response to date. I am providing the details of the incorrect information and the necessary corrections, seeking your assistance in rectifying this matter. 

Account Information : Account Identifier : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$1400.00} ( Disputed Amount ) The information reported by your agency for the account XXXX is XXXX. The original creditor associated with this account is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, which differs from the entity you indicate. I have never entered into any contractual agreement with the mentioned company and have not received any communication from them. The reported balance of {$1400.00} exceeds my understanding of the owed amount. In light of these inaccuracies, I am contesting the entirety of this account and request verification of the Date Opened and Date of First Delinquency. 


XXXX. Account Identifier : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$1700.00} ( Disputed Amount ) The details presented for the account XXXX are XXXX incorrect. The original creditor for this account is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, not the entity indicated by your agency. The reported balance of {$1700.00} surpasses the amount I acknowledge owing. I dispute the accuracy of this account and call for verification of the Date Opened and Date of First Delinquency. 


XXXX. Account Identifier : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$1100.00} ( Disputed Amount ) The account information provided for XXXX warrants further investigation. While the original creditor is XXXX AT T, I have not been contacted by XXXX. The reported balance of {$1100.00} is inflated and inconsistent with my records. Given these discrepancies, I dispute the entirety of this account and insist on verification of the Date Opened and Date of First Delinquency.
