Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I reviewed my credit reports from the XXXX major credit bureaus ( TransUnion, Experian, and Equifax ) and found multiple accounts that are inaccurately reported, outdated, or unverifiable. These accounts are negatively impacting my credit profile and do not reflect the accurate status of my credit history. Despite attempting to resolve these discrepancies directly with the credit bureaus, I have not received proper validation, verification, or correction of the disputed items. The following issues were found : Multiple charge-off accounts are listed without proper validation or supporting documentation. Several accounts appear to be duplicate listings across different bureaus with inconsistent statuses. Some accounts still reflect delinquent or late payments even though they were paid off, settled, or are currently in good standing. A few accounts were never authorized or do not match my known credit activity. XXXX or more accounts were marked as dispute resolved consumer disagrees without providing the requested documentation. I have submitted disputes under my rights as outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), but have yet to receive an appropriate resolution or deletion of unverifiable accounts. This situation is preventing me from qualifying for necessary financial services, including housing and auto financing.

Complaint narrative:
Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me. I've tried to get clarification from the creditors, but they have blatantly refused to give it to me. I demand that the creditors act immediately and be transparent. The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file!

State: MA

Complaint narrative:
My PSLF Reconsideration was submitted on XX/XX/XXXX and on XX/XX/XXXX and has been supposedly escalated to a supervisor. Today is business day XXXX. I am seeking immediate loan forgiveness per the department of Education court documents. 

I was awarded an automatically qualifying forebarence ( return to repayment remediation ) from XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, I have attached that information here. XXXX did not include an expiration date for that forbearance. 

Interest is actively accruing on my loans at the return to repayment remediation rate. Interest has been accruing since XXXX of XXXX, which indicates that I an NOT ON THE SAVE FORBEARANCE. I have attached that information as well. 


I am requesting an immediate UPDATE to my PSLF qualifying payment count to include the following months : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 

My PSLF form was approved in XX/XX/XXXX, and I have a form pending for XXXX of XXXX. 

According to court documents filed by the Department of Education in the U.S. District Court for the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Case No. XXXX ), borrowers placed in Return to Repayment Remediation status which is reflected on my XXXX account are automatically eligible for PSLF credit. Specifically, page 2 of the filing includes a footnote clarifying that the status currently on my loans qualifies automatically for PSLF : On this chart, N/A means that this type of forbearance is not eligible for buy back because it is automatically counted towards PSLF eligibility. The referenced chart is available on page 12 of the same document, which I have also attached and highlighted for your review. 


FSA has had both PSLF reconsideration requests and buy back requests for over 6 months. FSA has clearly reviewed and refused to process several forms marking them as duplicates with no further details. Each consideration and buyback request was curated with care and concern, included detailed information, and various documents. 

This delay is causing irreparable financial harm to both me and my family. 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to your immediate processing of my loan forgiveness per the PSLF work contract.

Product: Debt collection — Telecommunications debt
Issue: Threatened to contact someone or share information improperly — Talked to a third-party about your debt
Company: Kriya Capital, LLC
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
On Wednesday, XX/XX/year>, I was informed by a contact in my phone named XXXX that they received a screenshot or message containing details about a personal debt associated with my name. 

The message was sent from a debt collector, specifically Credence Resource Management , LLC, and disclosed : My full first name ( XXXX ) The creditor ( XXXX ) A partial account number ( ending in XXXX ) The total balance allegedly owed ( {$660.00} ) The deadline for payment ( XX/XX/year> ) A direct payment link and contact number This message was not sent to me directly it was shared with or forwarded to someone who is not authorized to receive any information about my debt. I did not provide consent for this individual to receive such details, nor have I authorized any third party to handle my personal financial matters. 

This constitutes a clear violation of FDCPA Section 805 ( b ), which prohibits debt XXXX from disclosing a consumers debt to third parties without consent. The message shared sensitive financial information that should have remained private and limited only to me as the alleged debtor. 

I am concerned not only about the unauthorized disclosure of my financial details but also about the broader privacy implications if my data is being handled in this way.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute several unauthorized inquiries on my credit report, in accordance with my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically sections 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ), and 604 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ).

I also request that you provide me with an updated copy of my credit report once the necessary corrections have been made.

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! I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.
