Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
PayPay Security called me to ask if I had opened a Pay Pay Credit account with them. ( I give them credit for this step-although the phone call almost felt like a scam, I was leery to give info. ) She informed me of the credit being opened in my name and I asked what the last 4 of the credit card was used to do this. She refused to give me numbers but would confirm any of the last 4 that I gave her. None matched according to her. She asked several times to confirm my email- I ignored this request.

( I should note that she informed me to contact any other accounts with emails - change all of my passwords- and monitor my account. I already use a secure password manager application, so unless the security breech is with them, I am not understanding how anyone broke into my passwords. ) She then proceeded to give me the phone number for XXXX  XXXX  that Pay Pal Credit is affiliated with. She told me to ask for the fraud department and told me to tell them that " this application was made without my consent as well as any charges on the account. '' I did this right away. However, XXXX said that there were no credit cards associated with the account because it is it's own credit account. THIS IS WHERE THINGS FELT FISHY. I was told they would freeze the account and alert the credit bureaus. I was given a confirmation number xxxxxxxx and told the account was opened yesterday XX/XX/2024, and canceled as of today XX/XX/2024. I was given a direct phone number of XXXX to call. I will get something in the mail in 7-10 days. ( I was also asked for a phone number and mailing address by this company. ) Then, she asked if I knew XXXX ( which is my husband ) because an account was also opened in his name.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported in XXXX AND XXXX to be removed. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

State: TX

Complaint narrative:
If you continue to disregard my demands for compliant reporting practices, I will consider this letter as an official notice prior to my petition for a writ of review in civil court. As the injured consumer of your inadequate reporting practices, I contest your assumed reporting privileges for any and all of your challenged claims in this consumer complaint. I demand that you demonstrate your compliance with state and federal reporting mandates, including the FCBA, FCRA, ECOA, and any applicable laws in my state. I am concerned that your claims may not adhere to industry standards for legal and ethical reporting, particularly in relation to the Metro 2 Data-filled Field Formatted Reporting Standards, per CDIA. 

Upon reviewing my personal consumer credit report, I have noticed questionable and/or inadequately reported data in my file at your company 's office. I am confused as to how and why this information has been populated or repopulated into my credit report profile, and whether or not I received the required 5-day notice of its return to reporting. Per the FCRA, any item previously removed can not be reinserted into a consumer 's credit report without written notice to the injured consumer within five business days. I have not received such notice, nor have I received any evidence of the accuracy and completeness of your reported claims. Your failure to remove these claims is a violation of my consumer rights and is unjust. 

Your agency is in violation of the law! According to 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 602 ( a ), I have the right to privacy. Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) states that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written consent. Furthermore, 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) specifies that no consumer reporting agency may include any adverse information in a consumer report, other than records of convictions of crimes, that is older than seven years.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ), it is stated that a person shall not furnish any information related to a consumer to a consumer reporting agency if they know or have reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

Delete this information immediately!
