Consumer complaint received 2024-10-07 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report.

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Complaint narrative:
This is a follow-up to a complaint filed on XX/XX/XXXX ( in which Mr Cooper used XXXX deceitful tactic in an effort to avoid responding ) and a follow-up complaint filed on XX/XX/XXXX that an agent with CFPB suggested I file XXXX 
On XX/XX/XXXX, both my renter and I who are out of town, saw clips on our security cameras with people entering our property through the locked gates, climbing through a window of the studio where my renter stores items, rummaging through our items and the locks were changed. This was discovered by having a neighbor and a realtor friend check on the property after seeing this. Because of Mr Cooper 's lack of communication with both myself and counsel, we have no clue if this is of their making. My senior lead officer advised I file police reports. I have emailed Mr Cooper but have yet to receive a response.

RE : You Violated the United States Code Law ( TILA 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) billing error ) Recently I checked my credit report and noticed multiple billing errors under 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) billing error ( 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 than 21 days before the payment due date. ( 4 ) The creditors failure to reflect properly on a statement a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. As I know the creditor didn't notify me 21 days before with a statement so there should be no late payments on this account. I demand to see hard solid proof from the creditor bank account that I didn't pay and was marked late because this is a billing error. The items below should all be updated to paid as agreed on my consumer report. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Accounting Error! How can there be a " Past Due- 30 Days Count '' when it clearly shows all " OK '' in the payment history? You are contradicting your claim. This is a violation and must be removed! Correct this at once! Also, By the Fair Credit Reporting Act. This unverified and inaccurate account has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
My landlord was attempting to cash a check that I had written to him. Per Bank of Americas automated process I was contacted via text message and email asking to verify that I had written this check. 

An email I received stated that I had until Friday, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX EST to verify the check. 

I also received a text message on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX stating that I had until XXXX XXXX  the next day ( which means it would be due by XXXX XXXX EST XXXX ) again, confirming what was written in the email. 

I verified the check at XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. I was then instructed to contact Bank of America, which I immediately did. I was told by both the customer service representative and her supervisor that it was my fault that I did not verify the check sooner and that there was nothing they could do as the funds were already being re-deposited into my account. When I explained to them that there was written documentation/proof/instructions that I had until XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX they did not care I did not provide me a solution. They kept reporting that I had received a text and email which again, I confirmed that I had. I employed them to understand that the content of the messages I received gave me instructions to follow which I did bye-bye. They again, told me it was my fault and could not provide an explanation as to why following their instructions was my fault. 

This caused my check to bounce and leave me in poor standing with my landlord. I did not do anything outside of following the written instructions. I was provided multiple times by this institution. And when I abide by the rules, they sent me I was still told that it was my fault. 

I dont feel safe, dealing with a financial institution that doesnt adhere to the written instructions ( that are legally binding ) they provide their customers and plays with their money however they seem fit.

The original loan information is not available and this loan is more than 10 years old. I can not even remember who it was with. Thank you!
