Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I sent a certified letter addressed to Experian dated XX/XX/22 and received by Experian on XX/XX/22 ( Attached ). In the letter I requested that Experian provide me the " NAME AND ADDRESS '' of the company it contacted to validate the " COMPLETENESS and ACCURACY '' of a reported bankruptcy record on my consumer file. In its response on XX/XX/22 in report # XXXX Experian stated that " The company that reported the information has certified to Experian that the information is accurate. This item was not changed as a result of our processing of your dispute. Please review your report for the details. '' In my letter I clearly did not request for a verification, but a " VALIDATION '' based on the report it received from XXXX XXXX ( Data Furnisher ). In my dispute I provided Experian with a report and statement from XXXX XXXX which clearly shows " NO BANKRUPTCY '' in their database. I have attached this full consumer report from XXXX XXXX to this complaint. In addition, I have attached a letter from the Bankruptcy court certifying that they did not report any filings to Experian. Experian is clearly using " UNVERIFIED '' " INACCURATE '' and " INCOMPLETE '' information it has allegedly obtained from XXXX  ( a public database ). I have disputed the information obtained from XXXX and therefore according FCRA 15 U.S. Code 1681i, Experian must complete a full investigation. In Cushman v TransUnion, Stevenson v. TRW ( Experian ), and Richardson v. Fleet, Equifax the court ruled that CRA 's can not merely " PARROT '' Information and that it must conduct an Independent REASONABLE investigation. Based on the facts provided. I am demanding the removal of this bankruptcy record from my credit file due to Experian 's failure to conduct a REASONABLE investigation by contacted the court and or data furnisher for the " Completeness and Accuracy '' of this record. Experian has refused to provide me with the " Name and Address ' '' of the company it contacted as required by FCRA law. Experian continues to use " TEMPLATE '' responses to avoid having to provide " FACTUAL '' proof of evidence. I am not requesting a " RE-INVESTIGATION '' I am demanding the removal of this record solely on the evidence presented. Experian HAS NOT communicated by US Mail in an attempt to AVOID being held liable for its lies.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting the removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days, and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 3-4 months.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022 I sent an accidental payment in the amount of {$1200.00}. I intended to make a request for payment. After attempting to get my money back from the person it was accidentally sent to without luck, I contacted Venmo on XX/XX/XXXX. I notified them in writing of the accidental transfer and attempts to get my money back from the person. Venmo stated that I was for all intents and purposes " XXXX out of luck ''. They said there is nothing that they can do for me and I have to take it up with the person that the funds were accidentally sent to. 

I have an extensive history of sending this person requests for the funds over the last two years as he owes me for a loan in that amount. Clearly, based on that and messages I sent to the individual starting the morning of XX/XX/2022. XXXX individual promised multiple times that he would return the funds. I sent screen shots of these promises to Venmo and was told again that the only recourse I had was to pursue getting my money back from the individual account holder and that they could only take action if given express authority from the account holder. 

I sent Venmo the rules for Regulation E 11 days ago and have received zero response from them. The recipient refunded {$300.00} of the accidental funds but has not refunded anything else. He keeps stating he will send the money back as soon as whatever made up crisis of the day is and then doesn't respond again until I hammer him with messages. He has no intent of paying back the original loan or returning the remainder of the funds sent in error. Venmo will not assist.

Company: MIDFIRST BANK
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I have received no written communication from Midland Mortgage or their attorney about foreclosure of my home, prior to a non related 3rd party arriving at my house XX/XX/2022 telling me I was in foreclosure and asking to buy the house. I assured him there was an error as I had spoken to the bank a few days prior about a modification, as I had the HAF funds applied to my account and have been approved for a COVID loan modification. He told me a title company gave him the info. To date, no one with Midland Mortgage or their foreclosure attorney office has been able to provide any confirmation i received any information from them and have told me they mailed it. When asked if there were any signatures or certified documents, I was told no, they mailed them 1st Class and referred to the attorney. After explaining to the foreclosure attorney ( I had to contact Midland to get the information for the attorney as, again, I had and still have no info ) the situation on XX/XX/2022, I was told that they mailed it, and told by her I received it. When I asked how she knew I received it, she said because they mailed it. When I asked about proof, she told me to get an attorney and hung up. Within an hour of thqt exchange, a man arrived and taped a photocopy of the trustee deed of sale on my door, took a picture and left. He didn't ring the doorbell.

Complaint narrative:
RBFCU refuses to release the title after I paid in full the vehicle loan.

They are required to do so within 10 days of pay off. 
XXXX said what they are doing is against Texas state law. 
Their reason is because of debt owed on a different account by the co borrower which is not my debt at all. 
I have legal documents of our divorce decree that states that the title is solely mine and not the co borrowers.
