Consumer complaint received 2025-12-23 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint to request assistance regarding inaccurate and unverifiable information that is currently being reported on my consumer credit report by Experian. After reviewing my credit file, I identified information that does not belong to me and inquiries that were not authorized. Despite my right to accurate reporting under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, these items continue to appear on my credit report. 
Experian is reporting an address listed as XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NJ XXXX, which is not my address. I have no knowledge of this address, I have never lived at this location, and it is not associated with me in any manner. The continued reporting of this address is inaccurate, and I am requesting that this address be deleted from my Experian credit file immediately. 
Experian is also reporting an account from XXXX XXXX, account number ending in XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  with a reported open date of XX/XX/XXXX, a balance owed of {$670.00}, and a status of charge-off. I have no knowledge of this account, I do not recognize it as mine, and I did not open or authorize this account. Since this account does not belong to me, it can not be accurately attributed to my credit file. I am requesting that a proper investigation be conducted and that this account be deleted if it can not be verified as belonging to me. 
Additionally, Experian is reporting a hard inquiry from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX. I did not authorize this inquiry, I did not apply for credit with this company, and there was no permissible purpose for accessing my credit report. This inquiry is inaccurate and must be removed. 
Experian is also reporting a hard inquiry from XXXX of XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. I did not authorize this inquiry, I did not initiate any application for credit with this entity, and there is no permissible purpose for this inquiry to appear on my credit report. I am requesting deletion of this inquiry as well. 
I am requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau require Experian to conduct a lawful and reasonable reinvestigation of the disputed items and to correct or delete any information that can not be verified as accurate. I also request written confirmation of the results of this reinvestigation and an updated copy of my credit report reflecting the appropriate corrections.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

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.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am a foreign national and do not have a U.S. Social Security Number.

TransUnion has associated an incorrect SSN with my credit file. In order to dispute this error and verify my identity, I submitted my dispute by mail.

I provided : 1. A copy of my passport 2. A bank statement 3. Copies of billing statements or loan aggrement for every account listed on my TransUnion credit report 4. My IRS-issued ITIN CP565 letter, confirming that I do not have an SSN and currently use an ITIN instead Despite providing comprehensive documentation that clearly establishes my identity and ownership of all reported accounts, TransUnion repeatedly responded that they were unable to verify my identity and refused to process my dispute. 

By refusing to manually verify my identity using the extensive documentation provided, TransUnion is effectively blocking my right to dispute inaccurate information under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

Issue: Problem when making payments — 
Company: Klarna AB
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have a installment accont with Klarna and I have used them in a few instances to pay for an item over time - meaning Klarna makes the full payment upfront and they collect the full payment plus additional fees from me over time. I had an email account through godaddy that was due and I set it up through Klarna. Klarna did not submit the payment in XXXX when I initiated the process and they didn't try to send the payment until XXXX. During that time godaddy sent me several emails informing me first that my access to my email was canceled and then they sent another email to inform me that they email was going to be deleted by XX/XX/XXXX, and the final email informed me that they canceled the email due to nonpayment. I contacted Klarna through chat and informed them that they might as well not send the payment because the account was closed. Klarna sent the payment anyway and attempted to make me make a payment. Since them I have been calling and messaging Klarna back and forth telling them they need to collect the funds from godaddy since they accepted the payment knowing they canceled my account. Neither Klarna or goddady is accepting the fact that they were at fault. I have emails from godaddy and have sent them to Klarna showing my accounts were canceled. Klara will pretend to investigate or lie and say I didn't provide proof and tell me I am still responsible. I do not understand why they are not getting the money bacf from godaddy when they sent me emails stating they canceled my access and deleted my account, but still accepted the money. I pay all of my balances due to Klarna and this is my first issue with them. I don't know why they are not working with me since I am their client and have done well over my past few accounts, but i have tried to work with them and I have provided them with email screenshot proof. Now they are still trying to collect from and reporting this on my credit as non payment. That is incorrect and unfair to me.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute one or more hard inquiries that appear on my consumer credit report. This dispute is submitted pursuant to my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act 15 USC 1681. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 604 a consumer reporting agency may only report a credit inquiry if it was made with a permissible purpose. Permissible purposes include a transaction initiated by the consumer or written authorization provided by the consumer. I did not authorize this inquiry nor did I initiate any transaction that would allow permissible access to my consumer report. Additionally under Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 611 you are required to conduct a reasonable investigation into disputed information and remove any information that can not be verified as accurate complete and authorized. At this time I am requesting that you investigate this hard inquiry and provide documentation showing my written authorization or other proof of permissible purpose. If you are unable to provide such proof the inquiry must be deleted from my credit report immediately. Please complete your investigation within the time period required by law and provide written confirmation of the results. Failure to remove unauthorized inquiries constitutes a violation of federal consumer protection law. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Capital One responded to my first CFPB complaint claiming my XXXX and XXXX payments were not made due to insufficient funds, which is inaccurate, as I have consistently maintained sufficient funds in my account. By XXXX, I had a {$380.00} balance, which included all late fees from XXXX and XXXX. I paid this balance in full in XXXX, and my account reflected a XXXX balance at that time. 

My account was locked in early XXXX without warning, preventing me from using the card or making any new purchases. Despite this, Capital One has continued to assess late fees. This is entirely incorrect and unfair, given that the account was fully paid while locked and inaccessible. You can clearly see my balance was paid in XXXX and if you add up the cost between the balance due after XXXX and the late fees ever since + interest, it correctly adds up the full amount that I paid in XXXX. Another thing I find comical is the fact that after the first CFPB complaint, Capital One wiped my past transactions off the app to where I cant see any transactions before the first unfair late fee that was charged in XXXX. Pretty shady if you ask me, but luckily I already took pictures before they did that.
