Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX GA XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, IA XXXX Re : Complaint Against Equifax Inadequate Investigation of Bankruptcy DisputXXXX Dear CFPB Representative XXXX I am writing to formally file a complaint against Equifax for its failure to adequately investigate and resolve inaccuracies related to my credit report. Specifically, I have disputed the reporting of a bankruptcy three times with Equifax, and each time they claim to have verified the information using XXXX. However, my XXXX file has been opted out since XX/XX/XXXX, and I am providing proof of this opt-out status as an attachment to this letter. 

In addition, I have attached : XXXX. Documentation confirming that XXXX no longer retains my data. 
XXXX. Screenshots and credit reports demonstrating that Equifax is the only bureau inaccurately reporting this bankruptcy. 

Equifax has failed to conduct a reasonable investigation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Per 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputes thoroughly and correct inaccurate or incomplete information. Given that Equifax continues to rely on a third-party source ( XXXX ) that does not have access to my data, this constitutes a breach of their obligations under the FCRA. 

I am demanding immediate removal of this inaccurate bankruptcy from my credit report. Failure to resolve this issue promptly will result in my pursuing legal action for damages, as allowed under 15 U.S.C. 1681n and 1681o, for willful or negligent noncompliance. 

Please ensure that Equifax addresses this matter swiftly and complies with its legal obligations. I request that the CFPB intervene to ensure that this error is corrected and that I am provided with documentation confirming the removal of the erroneous bankruptcy entry. 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX Attachments : Proof of XXXX opt-out Screenshots of credit reports from all three bureaus Records of previous disputes with Equifax

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  These accounts are not mine, and I have no connection to them or a contract with them.

15 U.S. Code 1681c2- a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt by such agency of ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report ; ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer; and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
Chase auto loan failed to apply my {$490.00} payment to my auto loan, declaring me past due, but they withdrew funds from my bank account 1 business day prior to my loan payment due date. This payment has been setup as an automatic bill pay initiated from my checking account for delivery 1 business day prior to payment due date since loan inception XX/XX/year>. My banking account bill payment indicates payment was sent ( typically electronically ), and the funds have been withdrawn from my checking account. I have sent a secure message to chase, but I presume I'll be spending a few hours collecting evidence, and requesting my bank to substantiate my claim, even though this is clearly the fault of Chase auto misapplying my payment.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and I am a natural living person. I am writing to dispute certain information present on my credit report, which I believe is inaccurate. This dispute is based on the provisions outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including 15 U.S. Code 1681a, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2, and 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ).

According to 15 U.S. Code 1681a, the definition of a consumer report excludes reports containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the reporting entity. It is evident that the information in dispute falls under this exclusion.

Furthermore, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 emphasizes the responsibility of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. The law stipulates that furnishers must provide accurate information and prohibits reporting with actual knowledge of errors.

In addition, 15 USC 1681a 2 ( A ) ( i ) supports my claim by specifying exclusions from the definition of a consumer report, highlighting the relevance of the disputed information to this exclusion.

Based on the provisions mentioned above, I kindly request an investigation into these discrepancies and urge prompt action to rectify the inaccuracies. As per my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I also request that you provide me with a written explanation of the results of your investigation.

Enclosed are copies of documents supporting my claim for your review.

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and request that the inaccurate information be corrected or removed from my credit report at the earliest.

Complaint narrative:
Hi I bought a house in XX/XX/year> with 5 % down payment and I had to pay PMI. 
I informed at that time that when my equity in the house reaches 20 %, this PMI will be removed. 
This either market values goes up, I pay more towards the principal. 
That happened when we bought our first house, the market went up and my equity went up accordingly, they removed this PMI Now according to Mr coopers website itself ( the lender ) the equity in the house is over {$99000.00} and also all real estate websites say the same.

I called Mr cooper to remove this PMI, they refused telling me that I should have proofs that I did renovations and upgrades the the hose to increase the house value for them to be able to consider thinking about this issue.

Or the other option to wait for 2 years, while still paying this PMI, and talk to them again.

I tried to explain that I already have more than 20 % equity which qualifies me to remove this private mortgage insurance, they refused.

Even, I told them that this happened before with me personally, they refused.

I clearly said that I will file a complaint that they are actually stealing my money, never cared.

Dont know what to do with them. 
Thanks

I have noticed several items on my credit report that I do not recognize. It appears that someone may have stolen my identity, as I did not authorize these accounts. I have previously raised this issue, and I am now requesting that these accounts be removed from my report immediately. The presence of these unauthorized accounts is causing me significant distress. They do not accurately reflect my credit history or financial management, and dealing with this issue has been challenging.
