Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this formal complaint regarding Equifax 's violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 605B and 611, due to their failure to address fraudulent accounts on my credit report despite proper notification and submission of required documentation. On XX/XX/XXXX, I disputed several fraudulent accounts and provided Equifax with all necessary documents, including a valid identity theft affidavit, proof of address, government-issued ID, and evidence linking me to a data breach. However, Equifax failed to block the disputed items within the four business days required by 605B and instead " verified '' the accounts without disclosing the sources or evidence of verification, violating 611 's mandate for a reasonable reinvestigation and transparency. Their actions contravene established precedent, such as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  which affirm the rights of consumers to accurate reporting and proper investigation of disputes. This pattern of non-compliance with statutory obligations and disregard for the CFPBs XXXX bulletin underscores Equifax 's failure to uphold consumer protections under the FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX, I reported fraudulent charges to XXXX XXXX  and requested the responsible vendor be blocked. At the same time, I visited a branch in person to set up an ACH auto-payment plan specifically to ensure no payments were ever missed. 

Despite these actions, the bank failed to block the vendor, failed to correctly process the authorized ACH payment, and subsequently reported my account as " XXXX  Days Late '' to all credit bureaus over an erroneous past-due amount of approximately {$8.00}. 

I have attempted to resolve this multiple times. On XX/XX/XXXX, I spent over an hour on the phone with a bank representative to file a fraud claim for the XXXX  time, receiving claim number XXXX. 

Following my complaints, XXXX XXXX  has taken punitive and deceptive actions. They closed the credit  card account and have since removed it entirely from my online banking portal, making it impossible for me to access the account 's history or statements. 

As of XX/XX/XXXX, the false delinquency report has caused my credit score to drop by XXXX points. Furthermore, XXXX XXXX  has taken adverse action against me based on this false information by slashing my credit limit from {$11000.00} down to {$500.00}. The bank continues to hold me liable for the fraudulent charges while actively concealing the account information from me.

Company: Consumer Financial Services Solutions, Inc.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
When discussing enrolling in Beyond Finance I asked what their fees and services cost. I was told of monthly fees for services and quoted 5 % in fees. Beyond Finance failed to explain or disclose they charge a 25 % settlement fee on the total enrolled debt for settled offers. The 25 % is assessed on the pre-settled account balances after you have stopped paying it for months per their direction. This fee was also not pointed out when the Beyond Financial Representative walked me through the Signing of the Beyond Finance service agreement contract. Beyond Finance failed to disclose all fees and expenses associated with their service up front. 

I was also told to expect a 50 % reduction in my debt, that I would have settlement offers in 2-3 months and that I could end the program at any time and walk away with any remaining funds that I had paid. It has been ten months and one of my accounts was settled however when I called to find out more details about removing myself from the program because I am not happy with the service I was told about the 25 % fee. After the 25 % fee, I have only saved 7 % of the enrolled debt. I asked about removing myself from the program, recognizing that I would need to manage the debt myself, and was told that I would still owe the 25 % fee and would not get back the over $ XXXX that I have paid into the program.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Wells Fargo issued a BillPay check from my account to my gardener for {$200.00}. The funds were withdrawn from my account, and the check was deposited by the payee ( who banks at XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ). 

XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX later deducted the funds from the payees account and claimed the check was returned unpaid. However, Wells Fargo has refused to take responsibility, claiming the image of the check is too blurry to confirm any details and says its not their problem. 

I have asked Wells Fargo to provide proof of payment or initiate an investigation with the receiving bank, but they refuse to help, despite having withdrawn funds from my account. This has caused financial harm to the payee and creates a discrepancy where funds were removed from my account but were not received. 

I am requesting that Wells Fargo : Retrieve the check copy or trace the payment using their internal systems Reimburse me or confirm payment was properly made and accepted Take accountability for this unresolved BillPay transaction Ive contacted their customer service and escalated it, but the issue remains unresolved. I would appreciate the CFPBs help.
