Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Filed with CFPB To Whom It May Concern : We are writing to inform you that we have filed a formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding your company 's failure to remove debts included in our federal bankruptcy. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Section 605 ( a ) ( 1 ), and the automatic stay provisions under Section 362 ( a ) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, debts discharged in bankruptcy should no longer be reported as active debts. Furthermore, any attempts to report or collect these debts are prohibited immediately upon filing for bankruptcy. 

Despite our previous attempts to resolve this issue directly with Upgrade Loans, the incorrect reporting of these debts remains on our credit report. This debt is still being reported to all three credit reporting agencies, and most notably, Experian has continued to show the balance, late payments, and the debt to date. We expect immediate action to rectify this situation in compliance with federal law. 

Please confirm receipt of this notice and provide an update on the status of the removal of the aforementioned debts from our credit report. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX & XXXX XXXX Date of Birth XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Date of Birth XXXX : XXXX Last four of social for XXXX : XXXX Last four of social for XXXX : XXXX

Complaint narrative:
" 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. This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed inquiries I didn't consent to and personal information I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I never consented to these inquiries and did not provide written consent to report them List all inquiries : Here is the personal information that I never consented to or provided written consent to report : List all personal information want deleted :.

Please investigate and provide proof with statements showing that I authorized or consented to these inquiries or personal information and proof that I authorized the reporting of this information. If proof can not be provided I demand these inquiries and personal information be deleted.

Adjust accordingly if there is no inquiries or personal information to be deleted "

I have received your computer-generated notice informing me that you did not do any action or investigation for the disputes I sent out last time because you think I may have used a third-party credit repair company. Not only do I think this is just your delaying tactics to get an extra 30 days to fulfill my first request, but I also think it's a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Again, please be informed that you are reporting inaccurate and incomplete information on my credit report.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My credit limit was raised from {$2500.00} to {$3500.00} for my XXXX XXXX Account in XX/XX/year>. I submitted disputes to Equifax, and have been calling them directly to update the XXXX XXXX Account with all of the correct information. I have also called " XXXX XXXX, '' so many times that I can't even count the total number. I have submitted documents to Equifax and XXXX XXXX, but each company says that it's the other company 's fault. In Equifax 's credit report dated XX/XX/year>, the " historical Account XXXX '' Equifax shows the correct information for XX/XX/year>, but in XX/XX/year> the information was changed back to what's listed for XX/XX/year>, in the XX/XX/year> box showing " last payment made '' Equifax reports it as " XX/XX/year>, '' but for XX/XX/year> they ( Equifax ) inserted, verbatim as " last payment made as XX/XX/year>. '' Equifax literally inserted information as if for XX/XX/year> we went back in time and posted XX/XX/year> 's information. I have tried over and over again to have this account reported correctly, but to no avail. I am fighting Equifax and XXXX XXXX to fix this, and have been lied to and given the run-around. Neither company seems to want to take responsibility for this account 's correct reporting. Equifax has hung up on me several times, and XXXX XXXX doesn't seem to be doing anything about it. This is unlawful, and possibly " credit report manipulation '' is taking place.
