Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have several accounts with Truist. I received a solicitation for pre-approval and a promo offer of no interest for a period of time. I am in the process of renovation so this seemed a good offer. I received my card and logged into my Truist online portal to take advantage of the promo. I then received a fraud alert via an unidentified XXXXXXXX XXXX. I don't answer unknown numbers due to scams. When I attempted to return the call, I was directed to XXXX XXXX  who barely spoke English and after 45 minutes I request a US representative. ( If concerned about fraud, perhaps don't send confidential, financial information offshore. ) In any case, they said they would resolve the issue. Nothing. I tried again. Same issue, canceled, call from XXXXXXXX XXXX. Tried a third time. This time I answered XXXX call, gentleman said he would put through transfer, as I had completed all necessary validations. Another week goes by and nothing. I try again. Same person as first time, XXXX leaves message and I am now back in XXXX XXXX when I call back. Could not locate XXXX. I am on phone for XXXX hr, XXXX min. and speak with helpful rep, who promises to resolve. Nothing happens.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX  is being reported late and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company 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 in MONTHS REPORTING LATE to be removed 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.

This company never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

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!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports.

Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
I work for the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX or XXXX years ago, they offered loan forgiveness. I filed the paperwork. I sent paperwork to my employer. Mohela is not showing that I filed anything. They are also showing that I have not paid on my student loan for over XXXX  years. Which is not true. I was paying my student loan up until the covid-19 pause. In other words, according to them, even though I have worked for a government agency for over XXXX years, none of my payments have counted towards loan forgiveness. And none of the paperwork that I have filed, has been credited towards my account. Also, on their website, it will give you information about forbearance and other programs. But it will not actually let you do so.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Wells Fargo Bank has charged my checking account for SEVEN ( 7 ) overdraft fees totaling an ASTOUNDING {$230.00}! 

I am an XXXX XXXX XXXX man with LIFE THREATENING medical conditions. My beloved wife XXXX and I XXXX XXXX on Social Security! 

Wells Fargo Bank denies me access to my checking account online because I do not have a mobile phone and I have repeatedly told them THAT! 

I can not at my very advanced age just pop over to the XXXX branch! 

No one from Wells Fargo Bank nor XXXX in the XXXX branch with whom I have transacted bank business many times called. I have also repeatedly told him I DO NOT HAVE A MOBILE PHONE! 

Either these astounding charges are removed or I can not afford MEDICINE and FOOD! 
Period! 

To repeat, it is patently unfair of Wells Fargo Bank to be charging me thus when it denies me access online to my checking account because it foolishly demands I have a mobile phone which repeatedly I have told them my beloved wife XXXX and I DO NOT HAVE AT ALL! 

ONE OVERDRAFT SNOWBALLS INTO THE NEXT AND THE NEXT AND ...! And even though I do not draw checks!

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 account listed without my expressed written consent.
