Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the XXXX, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.

Complaint narrative:
" I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries and inaccurate personal information made or reported without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about!

Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Approximately XXXX to XXXX weeks ago, I opened a CitiBank account. Shortly after, a friend of mine needed {$10.00} in cash, so I provided the cash in exchange for a {$10.00} XXXX transfer to my account. A day or XXXX later, I attempted to transfer that same {$10.00} to my roommate for a small purchase, but the transaction failed. 

Following this, I made a purchase of approximately {$9.00}, which nearly drained the account. It is possible that I also paid a small amount in parking fees, though I do not immediately recall any specific charges. 

Last Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX, I deposited a paycheck with a net total of {$690.00} into my CitiBank account. The check cleared by Friday morning. However, by Friday afternoon, I began receiving notifications stating, Our system is experiencing temporary delays whenever I attempted to access my account. 

Now, a full week later, I still can not access my online account, my debit card, or my paycheck. After contacting CitiBank, I was informed that my account had been marked for closure, yet no one could provide a reason. Additionally, I was never notified of the closure beforehandthere was no email, no physical mail, no app notification, or any other form of communication. The only reason I became aware of the account closure was because I reached out to them directly. 

CitiBank representatives have told me that I can not access my funds and that I need to contact my payroll provider to request a new paycheck. However, after speaking with XXXX, my employers payroll service, they confirmed that the funds were successfully transferred to my CitiBank account. Since the transaction was completed, XXXX is unable to revoke or reissue the check, leaving me with no way to recover my money. 

This paycheck represents all the money I have, and as a result, I have been unable to buy groceries for over a week. Each time I contact CitiBank, I am met with vague responses and no clear path forward. Customer support repeatedly states that they are not allowed to provide any further information. 

While I understand that CitiBank may have internal policies regarding account closures, I believe I am entitled to be informed about the status of my own account. Specifically, I should have been notified that my account was being closed, provided with a clear explanation as to why the closure occurred, and given information on what will happen to my deposited funds. Instead, I have been left without access to my money and with no guidance on how to retrieve it.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a compliant against Equifax for failing to investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report properly. Despite my submission, Equifax consistently responds within 24 hours, stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) - ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against it for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

Complaint narrative:
My checking account with Bank of America was closed today on XX/XX/year>. I can confirm that my direct deposit for the amount of {$470.00} did post this morning. However, sometime after that direct deposit posted my account was closed. When I try to log into my account it says the account has been closed. I went down to a branch and called the customer service number on the back of my debit card. I was informed that my account was in the process of being closed and I could not withdraw any of my funds. I informed Bank of America that legally they can not hold my funds. They informed me they would be sending a check but did not disclose how long that would take. The whole thing is quite shady. There was no explanation as to why my account was closed. I need my money.
