Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: RI

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.

Company: Block, Inc.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Cash App ( Block Inc ) due to inadequate customer service and unfair practices, which violates the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). Specifically, Cash App failed to take timely and effective measures to prevent and address fraud on their platform, leaving my account vulnerable and unprotected. Furthermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss and I seek appropriate redress for these violations

Complaint narrative:
I was shocked to discover an unauthorized inquiry on my credit report today, and I dont understand why its there. I always monitor my credit report, yet this time, an unfamiliar entry appeared out of nowhere. I even refreshed my browser multiple times, but the issue persisted. This is completely unacceptable, and I need it addressed without delay. I am requesting a thorough review of my submitted documents to ensure this never happens again.

Complaint narrative:
MY COMPLAINT : I woke up the morning of XX/XX/year>2024 discovered that my Chase Bank checking account was cleaned out. Empty. Somebody had withdrawn every cent in there. {$3200.00} in XXXX withdrawals the night before through an app called XXXX. ( see attachmen below ) I ran to my local Chase branch, and they started an investigation through their XXXX department and even called XXXX XXXX police department to meet with us. A month later Chase returned my money (! ), then a few days later they took it back! They had contacted XXXX, who claimed the illegal withdrawals had been approved by myself or by someone I had given permission to make, No way! Ive never made that many withdrawals before at the same time for any reason. My checking account, of course, was back to empty, and my unpaid bills started to pile up. I asked for another investigation and another and another, but the responses by Chase and XXXX were always the same : their investigations always confirmed I had approved the transactions. I hounded XXXX repeatedly, and of course their inquiries, such as they were, repeated the official conclusion that I had withdrawn the money myself and they closed my case. Neither they nor Chase Bank said they could help me any longer. I was in the strange but impossible position of having to prove what I didnt do! I just want my {$3200.00} back! CHASE LET SOMEBODY XXXX MY CHECKING ACCOUNT!

Complaint narrative:
Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.

Complaint narrative:
I got an email saying that a charge was made to my XXXX account in the amount of {$900.00} and the amount was withdrawn from my checking account. The email gave me a telephone number to call XXXX if I didn't make the purchase. I called the number and after filling out several forms and the person telling me that the money would be refunded using Transaction ID TRANSACTION ID IS - XXXX and Wire Transfer # XXXX. I accidentally typed an extra 1 at the end so that {$2000.00} was credited to my checking account. I checked my checking account and there was a charge for {$900.00} and a {$2000.00} credit in it. In order to give them the excess back to them, they told me to buy 2 {$500.00} XXXX gift cards, which I did. Unfortunately, the gift cards could not be redeemed or refunded and could not be used by a 3rd party. He asked me to go back to XXXX and to exchange them for XXXX cards. I tried to do that but XXXX would not allow it. When I got home, I checked my checking account and the charge for {$900.00} and the credit for {$2000.00} disappeared but the charge for buying 2 {$500.00} XXXX gift cards are still on it so I'm out {$1000.00}. I need that money to pay my bills for XXXX.
