Company: ZuntaFi Corp
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I have contacted Zuntafi which was previously called XXXX Student Loan Finance Company which was previously called Student Loan Finance Corporation to address the issues that have gone on with the college I attended named XXXX XXXX XXXX I have filled out a School Misconduct Form and have sent to their company, and they refuse to honor the School Misconduct form advising me that the loans serviced by their offices were not within the scope of any findings of fraud or deception identified by the US Department of Education. This I find strange because it was the school and the loan servicers who misled students getting the loans, and the loan companies have been acting like they didn't know of the fraudulent activities that were going on and have had the students paying back loans that should be forgiven and a portion of the loans should be refunded. These companies knew what was going on and have changed names and or passed the problems along to another company hoping that they would never be caught.

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. ''

To whom this may concern, I am writing to dispute a charge from XXXX XXXX. 

Last XX/XX/year> I went in to cancel my membership after I had asked management to put my account on hold, which they agreed to. I never received confirmation of my cancellation and they just kept charging me. I disputed it with my bank but now they took it to a collection agency. Ironically I am not the only client who has been going through the same issue. Whoever is running and managing this gym is scamming their clients. I need the charge removed from this shady company please. 

Respectfully, XXXX XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
As of XX/XX/year>, all four major credit bureausEquifax, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX made it impossible for me to add a personal statement to my credit report despite my repeated efforts to contact each one of them over the past two weeks. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), consumers have the right to dispute inaccurate information on their credit reports and to add a personal statement explaining their side of the story if a dispute is unresolved. The persistent failure of these credit bureaus to facilitate this process violates my rights under the FCRA and has left me without a means to ensure that my credit report accurately reflects my circumstances. This stonewalling not only hinders my ability to clarify my credit history but also raises serious concerns about their compliance with federal laws designed to protect consumers. 

Moreover, Equifax, XXXX XXXX XXXX have closed out all of my disputes filed directly with each of them without providing me any results or explanations for their decisions. This is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ), which mandates that credit bureaus must investigate disputes and provide the results to the consumer. By failing to inform me of the outcomes, these bureaus have disregarded their legal obligations and left me in the dark about the status of my disputes. This lack of transparency is particularly troubling given the serious nature of the inaccuracies on my report, which include incorrect information fraudulently provided by XXXXXXXX XXXX. The continued presence of these errors on my credit report has unjustly affected my credit standing, undermining the purpose of the FCBA and FCRA. 

In addition to their failure to provide dispute results, Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX have perpetuated the misinformation supplied by XXXXXXXX XXXX, despite clear evidence that refutes the bank 's claims. The FCRA requires credit bureaus to ensure the accuracy of the information they report. However, by maintaining false information on my credit report, they have further violated my rights under the FCRA. This persistent inaccuracy has not only caused undue harm and inconvenience but also highlights the systemic issues within these credit bureaus regarding their handling of consumer disputes and adherence to federal regulations. The combined failures of these institutions to investigate, resolve disputes within the legally required timeline, and provide necessary information underline the urgent need for immediate corrective action to rectify my credit report and prevent further legal ramifications.
