Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles handling of disputes, particularly in light of recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPBs findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumers safety.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against Navy Federal Credit Union regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds when transactions were authorized, I was charged fees due to the lagging posting of charges and credits. This issue aligns with the CFPB finding against Navy Federal for similar practices, where transactions settled with insufficient balance despite initially available funds. I believe these practices are unfair and request an investigation into my account transactions.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Equifax has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 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 Equifax, 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 Equifax has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Equifax 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding multiple overdraft fees applied to my account. These fees were assessed despite having sufficient funds available at the time the transaction were authorized. However, due to delayed posting of charges and credits, I was unfairly charged overdraft fees. 
This issue appears consistent with recent findings by the CFPB which identified similar practices by Navy Federal Credit Union, where transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initially having adequate funds. I believe these practices are deceptive and unfair.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX has not complied with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The company has not supplied any account records that are necessary to support their claim of a debt. XXXX XXXX has not provided documentation to support a claim that XXXX XXXX issued a credit card to me and was used for a purchase or other transaction, at any terminal, anywhere in the world. The company has not provided evidence of payments received or unpaid transactions. They have also failed to demonstrate that a security deposit was applied to the account. They have provided no evidence of any amount owed that accrued interest that depleted the {$200.00} deposit that secured the credit in excess of {$87.00}. 

They have provided no evidence because evidence does not exist. The company reported this account to the credit agencies as being delinquent, charged off, and with 48 payments over 90 days late. I have been denied for housing and I am now homeless. I have disputed this account and requested the relevant information several times. I have submitted every document I have ever received in regards to this account, yet the company has never provided any documentation, they have only made unsupported and unverified statements. XXXX XXXX has failed to provide the requested information, or properly investigate or provide proof of the claim. 

The actions of this company and the credit reporting agencies are unacceptable. This is not cash. A credit card debt would create ample evidence of its use.The credit card company ( XXXX, XXXX ), the issuer, the bank, ect would all have information to verify that this debt is real. Every transaction is documented with a date, time, location, merchant, terminal number, ect. XXXX XXXX  did not have to provide any proof before this debt became attached to my name as a public record. XXXX XXXX provided no proof, the credit reporting agencies required no proof and the information Consumer financial protection Bureau reviewed the case and closed it with no proof and no compliance with the following federal statute : 12 USC 5533 a covered person shall make available to a consumer, upon request, information in the control or possession of the covered person concerning the consumer financial product or service that the consumer obtained from such covered person, including information relating to any transaction, series of transactions, or to the account including costs, charges and usage data. The information shall be made available in an electronic form usable by consumers.
