Consumer complaint received 2025-02-05 00:00:00
Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan — Personal line of credit
Issue: Problem when making payments — 
Company: OneMain Finance Corporation
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I have only been with this company a few months. However, I have never been reported late to the credit bureaus. My payments are always made within the first week however, I get harassing calls from this company every month for example this month I received a call on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Each time I advise the representative that I will be making my payment on Wednesday. I also asked the representative if they look at my account? I always pay and I never go past a week of the first, I attempted to explain to the representative that This is starting to feel uncomfortable that someone is calling me every day for {$91.00} payment that they see on the account that I make every month so far each time I made the statement the representative would say well your payment is due on the first again I have never been reported to the credit bureaus for being late, and my payments are always made around the first of the month. These calls are making me very uncomfortable. It feels like harassment, especially when Im paying. The comment that was concerning for me today is that false information is being put on my account that I am not responsive or answer the phone. There was only one time that someone called me and I was unable to answer the phone because I was at work in a meeting. However, XXXX explained to me today that my account states that I am non-responsive, which is absolutely false. As I mentioned today, I dont need to be harassed getting calls every day about a payment that clearly shows on my account that I make never been late and I dont need to be stressed out at work about a payment that I make monthly. And I definitely dont need false information on my account or to be told what my payment is due on the first when its not being reported to the credit bureaus. Seeing this company call stresses me out and I have only been with them since XXXX. I will make every attempt to pay them off as I really dont feel that I want to support this company any longer.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX  account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

The accounts are XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ).

This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report.

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and and inaccurate information.

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Acr ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective actions to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experians inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.
