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. ''

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. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX Nature of Complaint : On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a dispute to Experian disputing a late payment reported by 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 Already Made Before Due Date : The payments were made before the due date. I have provided bank statements and payment confirmation receipts that clearly show my payments were processed well before the due date and should not have been marked as late. 
Clerical Error at XXXX 's End : There was a clerical mistake where XXXX incorrectly reported my account as late, despite confirming that my payment was received on time. I have attached communication with XXXX acknowledging that the late reporting was due to a system error, and that the payment was processed correctly. 
Incorrect Reporting Due to Closed Account : My account with XXXX was closed by the creditor, which further complicates the reporting of late payments after the closure. This account should not have reflected any late payments beyond the closure date, and I have attached the account closure confirmation from XXXX as evidence. 

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 XXXX

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My previous legal name was XXXX XXXX but changed to XXXX XXXX XXXX when XXXX in XXXX. I checked my credit score in early XXXX and got around XXXX from all three bureaus including TransUnion. I was trying to acquire a loan from a lender in XXXX and they told me that TransUnion record was frozen. I signed up with my new name and same social security number, which wasn't changed, and found out that I don't have any credit history. As the previous report by XX/XX/XXXX, everything was fine. I disputed with TransUnion, but got no response from real person, except a bunch of machine responses. 

Because the social security number has never changed, the credit history should not be new. They should be able to match my old record with the new name just like other two bureaus did. But they repeatedly denied my requests. 

My purchase has a closing date, and I am risking my deposits. So, I hope someone could really help to let them check into this simple case. I believe it's just a small technical bug, but need to be heeded by real man, not fool the customers around with robot machines.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX and 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 reported to be removed/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 than 21 days before the payment due date. 

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!

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year>, I opened an Apple Savings Account through Goldman Sachs, drawn to the advertised 4.15 % APY and the convenience of linking it with my Apple Card. On XX/XX/year>, I deposited {$2700.00} from XXXXXXXX XXXX, followed by {$250.00} from XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, and {$1200.00} from XXXXXXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. By the end of XXXX, my balance exceeded {$5100.00}. Confident in Goldman Sachs ' promises of seamless account management and access to funds within five days, I made a withdrawal request of {$610.00} on XX/XX/scrub>XXXX XXXX However, this request was denied without explanation, despite the account holding more than sufficient funds. I tried again later that day, but the withdrawal was again blocked without reason. 

Over the next several days, I made multiple additional attempts to access my savings, including a nominal withdrawal request of just {$1.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, but all these transactions were denied. This inability to access my funds forced me to spend over three hours with Goldman Sachs XXXX customer service, being transferred through more than a dozen representatives. None of them could explain the restrictions on my account or provide a meaningful solution. 

As a result of these restrictions, I suffered significant financial harm. I was unable to make timely payments on my Apple Card, which led to accrued interest charges and a decline in my credit score. Additionally, I incurred a late rent fee because the funds I had planned to use was inaccessible. These outcomes align with findings from the CFPB 's recent enforcement action against Apple and Goldman Sachs. Specifically, the CFPB found that Apple failed to send customer disputes to Goldman Sachs and that Goldman Sachs failed to properly investigate or resolve these disputes. This breakdown in customer service mirrors my own experience, where repeated withdrawal requests and inquiries were met with apathy and a lack of resolution. 

My situation also raises concerns under the Consumer Financial Protection Act, the Truth in Lending Act, and additional federal regulations such as the Truth in Savings Act ( Regulation DD ) and the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( Regulation E ). Goldman Sachs ' failure to act in good faith and provide access to my funds further constitutes a breach of the Uniform Commercial Code ( UCC ).
