Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: KY

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am filing this complaint regarding an unresolved issue with Goldman Sachs Bank USA, issuer of the Apple Card. On XX/XX/year>, I sent a formal debt validation request under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding an account reported as a charge-off ( Account # : XXXX XXXX XXXX  ). 

Despite my lawful request, Goldman Sachs failed to provide any of the legally required documentation, such as : - A signed agreement with my signature, - A breakdown of the amount allegedly owed, - Full account history or statements, - Evidence of proper notification prior to the charge-off, - Proof of their legal authority to report or collect on this account. 

On XX/XX/year>, I sent a second written request reinforcing the need for full validation. They have continued reporting the account to credit bureaus ( XXXX XXXX XXXX  ) without providing validation. This ongoing action violates both the FDCPA and FCRA. 

I respectfully request that the CFPB investigate this matter and compel Goldman Sachs Bank USA to either validate the debt with proper documentation or immediately remove the account from all credit reporting agencies. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, KY XXXX

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute fraudulent information I have found on my credit report, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, and to request that such information be blocked or removed immediately. I am attaching a copy of my Identity Theft Report issued by the FTC ( FTC REPORT NUMBER : XXXX  ) as evidence of my claim.

According to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, when a consumer submits an identity theft report, credit reporting agencies are required to block any information identified by the consumer as a result of such theft within four ( 4 ) business days.

The following information on my credit report is the result of identity theft and must be blocked : NAME / ACCOUNT NUMBER XXXX  - XXXX Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I respectfully request that this account be immediately blocked from my credit report. This block should remain in effect for a period of one year, after which I may request an extension. During this time, no information may be reported.

I have contacted Transunion multiple times to report these accounts, but I have not received a clear or definitive resolution to help me resolve this situation. This situation is severely affecting me as I am trying to purchase a new home for my children and obtain financial tools to support my economic growth. Having this negative account on my credit report has blocked all my opportunities and is causing me personal and financial harm.

This account have already been removed and was not verified by other credit agencies, so I do not understand why this agency continues to assert that these accounts belong to me.

I have requested copies of the contracts related to this account from the reporting company, and after more than 60 days, I have not received any response. I respectfully request your assistance in removing these accounts immediately.

Issue: Communication tactics — Used obscene, profane, or other abusive language
Company: DSR HOLDINGS GROUP, LLC
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Summary of the Issue : I am filing a complaint against a debt collection agency that has repeatedly contacted my family members including my father despite my ongoing, regular communication and payments with them. 

Details of the Misconduct : I have been in weekly contact with this debt collector and have been making regular payments toward a settlement agreement. 
Despite my cooperation, they have contacted multiple family members under the guise of being separate companies, even though it is the same agency. 
On a recent call, they discussed the debt with my father on a recorded line, which I believe is a clear violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 
Today, the final payment was due. I had already spoken with a representative XXXX days ago and confirmed I would pay it by the end of the day. However, before the day was even over, they reached out to my family claiming they couldnt reach me, which is false. 
During XXXX call, the representative also yelled at me, and while I admittedly raised my voice in frustration ( after they contacted my family again ), the behavior from their side was aggressive and inappropriate. 
I have responded to every message they have sent and remained cooperative throughout this process. 

Why Im Filing This Complaint : This companys actions have caused me undue stress and embarrassment by involving my family members, spreading misleading information, and breaching privacy. I believe these actions may violate federal and state regulations governing debt collection, including unauthorized third-party contact and harassment.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the recent response provided in regard to my complaint filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( XXXX  ) concerning the inaccurate reporting of a bankruptcy on my credit file. I have serious concerns about the validity of credit bureaus verification process and the credibility of the information allegedly used to substantiate this reporting. The CFPB response states that the disputed public record, labeled as XXXX XXXX CT XXXX XXXX AS REPORTED has been reviewed and verified. However, I have obtained clear, written confirmation from the relevant court XXXX Bankruptcy XXXX that they do not report or furnish bankruptcy proceedings information to credit reporting agencies. This official statement from the court raises serious questions about who, in fact, provided the information used in your " verification '' process. Furthermore, I contacted XXXX, a known third-party data provider, and they confirmed that they have no record of the bankruptcy account in question. This evidence contradicts any claim that the information was verified as reported. Given that : XXXX. XXXX. The court itself has stated it does not report information to credit bureaus. XXXX, a potential data source, has confirmed no record of the account. It is clear that TransUnion lacks a reliable and valid source to justify the continued reporting of this bankruptcy on my credit file. This failure in the verification process constitutes a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX  ) under Section XXXX, which requires that consumer reporting agencies conduct a reasonable investigation to ensure the accuracy of information included in consumer files.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information being reported on my consumer credit report by Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX  for XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). Specifically, Equifax is reporting the account as " Pays account as agreed '' with a " XXXX days past due '' delinquency. XXXX  is reporting " Paid account/was 30 days past due '' with a " XXXX delinquent '' status. XXXX is reporting " Paid or paying as agreed '' but does not indicate a payment status. These reports are inaccurate and need to be updated to reflect " Paid on time '' and " Paid as agreed '' for all accounts. These entries are inconsistent, contradictory, and inaccurate. I am requesting that the status of this account be updated to reflect " Paid on time '' or " XXXX, '' and the worst delinquency status be updated accordingly to ensure accuracy in reporting. Upon review, I have discovered that these entries violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( CRA ), particularly Section 611, which requires consumer reporting agencies to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information contained in consumer reports. Furthermore, the entries were reported without my written authorization, in direct violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ), which mandates that consumer information can not be accessed or used without the explicit written consent of the consumer. I expect a detailed response outlining the findings of your investigation, including documentation of the original written instructions from me, with my wet signature, authorizing the reporting of this information, and an explanation of the legitimate purpose for reporting these late payments. Additionally, I request a thorough investigation into these disputed late payments as per Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) of the FCRA and written confirmation of the investigation 's completion, along with details of any actions taken to rectify this matter. 

Lastly, I request documentation to verify compliance with 15 U.S. Code 1666b, which mandates that periodic statements must be delivered at least XXXX  days before the payment due date, including the periodic statement and corresponding tracking number to confirm timely delivery. I have attached proof of the inaccuracies and highlighted them in red for your convenience. I trust that you will handle this matter promptly and in compliance with all applicable federal regulations. I look forward to receiving a response within XXXX  days of the date of this letter. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/year> : I received a text message ( see screenshot ) that said " thanks for your order '' with a link. I was suspicious of this text and thought it was a scam, so I did not click the link, rather I logged into my bank account and saw I was charged {$360.00}. I immediately locked my debit card, called the bank and filed a fraud dispute. My card was cancelled and a new debit card mailed to me. 

XX/XX/year> : A temporary credit for the fraudulent charge amount ( {$360.00} ) was issued to me. 

XX/XX/year> : I received communication from USAA ( see document attached ) that stated a through investigation had been done and it was determined that the charge was not fraudulent and a reversal of the temporary issued credit would be made. 

XX/XX/year> : I called USAA to question how they came to this conclusion, I was told I would be sent documents regarding their investigation. 

XX/XX/year> : Received the aforementioned documents ( see attached ). The documents showed the fraudulent purchase was made from an IP address in XXXX, OH. 

XX/XX/year> : {$360.00} debited from my account XX/XX/year> : Police report filed regarding fraudulent charges after speaking with USAA and finding no resolution I have been in contact with USAA via phone several times requesting an appeal of this decision. I explained to them my bank account shows I made charges in my hometown of XXXX, VA on the same date of purchase and was never in XXXX, OH and have never visited there. I also mentioned the website from the fraudulent charge no longer exists. There is ample evidence to prove this is a fraudulent charge yet USAA refuses to do a true thorough investigation.
