Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Recent reports from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) indicate that Equifax has failed to properly investigate consumer disputes. A lawsuit has even been filed against Equifax for violating consumer protection laws by not complying with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Under federal law ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), Equifax is required to thoroughly reinvestigate disputed items within 30 days and remove any information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable. Ignoring this obligation is a direct violation of my rights. 

I am disputing the following negative items, which I strongly believe may be linked to a data breach : Name : 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 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 XXXXXX/XX/XXXX I have already provided supporting documentation multiple times, yet these errors persist. The lack of corrective action has caused me financial harm and unnecessary distress. 

I have a legal right to an accurate credit report, and I expect these items to be properly investigated and removed immediately.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Complaint narrative:
I opened a credit card with navy Federal Credit Union. I put through a XXXX transfer for XXXX from a XXXX credit card XXXX on the XXXX of XXXX. On the XXXX of XXXX there were XXXX additional balance transfers reflected that were not mine. I contacted the bank and they told me they were XXXX cards and for a XXXX. I explained I do not know a XXXX and the cards were not mine and I did not put them through. They told me they would try and recoup the funds and it can take XXXX weeks. I called several times since trying to understand how this happened, what they are doing to investigate, and what happens if the bank the transfers are from refused to return the funds. I am not being given any information, Im being spoked to as if these are my charges. I am told I am fully responsible for the minimum payment despite the balance having an extra {$13000.00} on it that is not mine. The exact transfers are for {$9700.00} and {$3300.00}. I would like these removed from my card and explained how this happened. And why Navy Federal Credit Union has not opened an investigation. And why I should be responsible for the full monthly payment.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against Navy Federal Credit Union regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds when transactions were authorized, I was charged fees due to lagged posting of charges and credits. This issue aligns with the recent CFPB findings against Navy Federal for similar practices, where transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initially available funds. I believe these practices are unfair and request an investigation into my account transactions.

Complaint narrative:
Dispute of Debt - JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS LLC. {$1900.00}, Dear CFPB Team, I am writing to formally dispute a charge-off listed under my name. I believe this debt is inaccurate and have specific concerns regarding the validity of the charge-off. Firstly, I have not received a Form 1099 nor any other documentation validating this debt, which should have been disclosed to me as part of the debt collection process. I understand that under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, I am entitled to receive proper notice regarding any debts that may be claimed against me. To the best of my knowledge, I did not incur the debt associated with this charge-off, nor have I ever been contacted by the original creditor regarding this matter. Additionally, my attempts to obtain documentation validating the debt have been unsuccessful. In light of the above, I am requesting a thorough investigation into this charge-off and any supporting documentation that validates the existence of this debt. I am also requesting that you provide me with a complete account history, including any communications sent to me regarding this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact me at XXXX or XXXX should you require any further information or clarification regarding my case. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX ---

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
" I am disputing inaccuracies on my credit report and requesting the immediate removal of specific accounts and items. These inaccuracies include unauthorized negative entries, incorrect addresses, and hard inquiries reported without my consent. These actions violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, which requires consumer reporting agencies to block or delete information reported without written consent.

You have failed to ensure maximum possible accuracy, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). The reporting of unauthorized data also breaches 15 U.S.C. 1681b, which governs permissible purposes for obtaining and reporting consumer data. The inaccuracies have caused harm to my creditworthiness, and despite providing documentation, these errors remain uncorrected.

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting a formal complaint against USAA Federal Savings Bank regarding their lack of transparency, misleading communication about my income, and refusal to disclose key financial data used to deny my loan application. 

Details of the Complaint : Loan Application Information : Lender : USAA Federal Savings Bank Loan Type : Unsecured Personal Loan Application Number : # XXXX Date of Denial : XX/XX/year> Denial Reasons Stated by USAA : 1. Excessive obligations in relation to income ( Debt-to-Income Ratio ).

2. Insufficient credit history. 

Key Issues with USAAs Handling of My Application : 1. USAA Refuses to Disclose My Debt-to-Income ( DTI ) Ratio USAA denied my loan based on my DTI ratio but refuses to tell me the percentage they calculated.

While their underwriting mo

del may be proprietary, my specific DTI figure is not. Despite multiple written and verbal requests, t
hey have declined to disclose the number used to deny me.

I request that the CFPB require USAA to disclose the exact DTI ratio used to deny my loan. 

2. USAA Misled Me About How My Income Would Be Considered USAA employee XXXX ( Employee ID : XXXX ) explicitly told me that my historical overtime would be included in my loan review. 
USAA later admitted that only my most recent paystubs were considered, meaning they evaluated my application based on an artificially lower income. 
This misleading information materially affected my ability to apply for credit. 

I request that USAA provide an explanation in writing regarding why I was misled about my income consideration. 

3. USAA Refuses to Explain Whether Medical Debt Factored Into My Denial The only negative item on my credit report is a disputed XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX 
USAA has avoided answering whether medical debt played a role in my denial. 
If medical debt was weighted heavily in their decision, this could have a discriminatory impact on individuals with XXXX, violating the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ).

I request that USAA clarify whether medical debt was factored into their decision and how it was weighted. 

If USAA continues to refuse to provide transparency, I request that the CFPB investigate their lending practices for potential unfair and discriminatory practices.
