The existence of a derogatory rating on my account is causing me significant concern. I am deeply worried about its potential impact on my credit. It has already resulted in the denial of a recent loan application and an increase in the interest rates on my existing credit accounts. I want to emphasize the severe financial and emotional distress that this negative rating has caused me and will continue to cause until it is resolved.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a new auto loan at Navy Federal Credit Union. 

I want to refinance my new car and they list new as 2023 and newer with under XXXX miles. Mine is a XXXX with XXXX miles on it. 

Their only disclaimer is " Advertised as low as annual percentage rates ( APR ) assume excellent borrower credit history. Your actual APR may differ and will be based upon several factors, including credit history, model year, term, and loan amount. '' My credit score is XXXX. They list 72 months as 4.79 % but they only offered me 8.59 % to borrow XXXX, almost double. Explain what part of the above would keep me from qualifying for the best available rate? This is the only place I do not. 

They will NOT tell you why you were not offered the better rate but it will still cost you a hard pull on your credit report because you thought you for sure qualified. 

This is a total bait and switch and they are preying on people who have no other options. I am fortunate and can do something else, I just thought I found a good deal. 

This is predatory lending! 

b.t.w. They did that same thing to my daughter for her student loan when I was supposed to co-sign. Total bait and switch. That also cost me a hard pull.

Complaint narrative:
My account was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment to be updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later th
an 21 days before the payment due date.

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this statement to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding ongoing issues with Experians handling of my credit disputes and their lack of transparency in verifying disputed items on my credit report. Despite my multiple dispute submissions on XX/XX/year>2024, XX/XX/scrub> 2024, XX/XX/year>2024, and XX/XX/scrub> 2024, Experian has repeatedly marked these disputes as " verified '' without providing any documentation or proof of the investigation process, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Under the FCRA, I am entitled to a transparent and thorough investigation into the accuracy of each disputed item. This includes Experian providing all records related to their verification process, including communication logs with creditors, the specific steps taken to verify each item, and any findings that support their decision. Experian has failed to fulfill these legal requirements, which compromises the accuracy and integrity of my credit report. 

Given Experians failure to provide verification evidence, I am requesting that Experian : Supply all records and documentation for each disputed item, detailing the investigation process, communications with creditors, verification steps, and relevant findings. 
Suspend reporting on any disputed items until a proper investigation is completed and verifiable documentation is provided to ensure their accuracy. 
Additionally, I am requesting that the CFPB intervene to ensure Experians compliance with federal law and Experians arbitration terms. If this issue is not resolved, I am prepared to escalate this matter to arbitration, per Experians arbitration agreement, due to their non-compliance and lack of responsiveness. 

I appreciate the CFPBs assistance in addressing this matter and ensuring Experian meets their legal obligations under the FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

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. ''
