State: MI

Complaint narrative:
My Apple Card was suddenly closed in XXXX of XXXX  due to multiple fraudulent activity, and my Apple Cash Account was locked. The fraudulent activity was out of my control and I also reported identity theft to the police with proof due to multiple bank account and credit cards getting hacked. I have been trying to find answers by calling support numerous, but no one has been able to provide me with a clear and specific reason as to why my accounts were shut down. All they have been able to tell me is that it was due to " regulatory reasons, '' which is not very helpful. 

As far as my Apple Cash goes, there was a dispute filed to my XXXX due to me thinking it was a fraud transaction since at the time I was going through multiple hacked accounts. After I realized that I was the one who completed the transaction I sorted it it with my bank stating that it was not fraud and the issue was then resolved. To be completely restricted due to this mistake without warning or discussion is unacceptable. I would use Apple Cash very often and it was used to make payments to merchants, friends, businesses, bills, etc. and out of nowhere XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX chose to restrict my account permanently without any explanation. I called Apple support multiple and they could not help me in the slightest. 

I have never committed any type of fraud. 

Despite being told that I can transfer my money out at any point, I haven't been able to do so yet because my account is locked. 

However, the real issue is wit

h the Apple Cash being closed, because that was my only way of payment to people and it was taken away from me due to something that was out of my control. I can't prevent my identity being stolen and I soon as I saw fraudulent activity on my account I reported it. I have asked numerous of times why they restricted me from Apple Cash and they
never give me an answer. I have been given the run around multiple times without any progress or solution. 

I know Apple Cash is affiliated to XXXX XXXX  and they made the decision to permanently close my account without explanation. I have been without Apple Cash for over a year now without warning and need XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX to reinstate my account. This is completely wrong and unfair and I do not appreciate the lack of communication as well. 

In summary, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  has mishandled my Apple Cash account and created unnecessary complications. I urge Apple to review and correct their procedures regarding unclaimed properties to prevent similar issues for other customers.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting a formal complaint to dispute the inaccurate and inconsistent reporting of an account related to XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX across different credit bureaus. Specifically, under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), I have identified several discrepancies that require immediate correction. After thoroughly reviewing my credit reports, the following issues have come to light : Account Name : The account name is different on each report. Original Creditor : The original creditor is different on multiple reports. Reporting History : The payment history associated with this account varies between the credit bureaus. Inconsistent Account Information : The account details differ significantly across the credit bureaus. Account Type and Remarks : The account type and remarks provided in the reports are inconsistent, and the account status differs in each report. Last Date of Activity : The last date of activity reported for this account varies between the credit bureaus, with differing remarks across the reports. Collector 's Information : The collector 's name, contact information, phone number, and address are different across the reports. These inconsistencies suggest improper updates that are misleading and harmful to my credit report. Despite these issues, the account was allegedly updated as accurate. I believe that the failure to properly investigate this account has resulted in the continued reporting of incorrect information. This neglect violates my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of information in consumer reports. Given these ongoing issues and the failure to correct them, I formally request that XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX be deleted from my credit report immediately. This neglect violates my rights under the FCRA, and I expect prompt corrective action. I have included copies of my credit reports, highlighting the inconsistent reporting across multiple credit bureaus. Rights Under 15 U.S.C. 1681n If this issue is not resolved, I will exercise my rights under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, which pertains to civil liability for willful noncompliance under the FCRA. Key provisions include Willful Noncompliance : Any person who willfully fails to comply with FCRA requirements is liable to the consumer. Damages : Consumers may recover actual damages or statutory damages ( from {$100.00} to {$1000.00} ), as well as punitive damages and attorney 's fees.

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Experian regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX submitted a dispute to Experian disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Payment Made On Time : I made the payment on time as per my records. Please see the enclosed bank statement, which clearly shows that the payment was processed well before the due date. 
Clerical Error : There may be a clerical error in the reporting process. The payment was not accurately recorded or credited to my account in a timely manner, leading to this erroneous late payment report. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Experian has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
