Complaint narrative:
I was trying to add money into the cash app for the amount of {$550.00} and it kept declining. So, I kept trying for 2 days over and over and I also called support and just kept telling me that the system is allowing to add money into cash app. Thats all they kept telling me on XX/XX/year> - XX/XX/year>. I kept asking them why and I also called customer support numerous times. I verified my account over and over and they still would not allow the transfer. Ive been using my cash app account for years. So finally they closed it all together. I also tried reopening another account with a different email and same phone number bc that is the only phone number that I have. I just need a cash app account to pay my lawn man and pay my beauty salon, and when friends and family send me money. Can you help me get it reopened? Before they assumed that my account was fraud, they should have told me so that I could prove its me with more security measures.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
This letter serves as my formal notice of dispute concerning certain account listed on my credit report that I believe was accessed or reported without a permissible purpose as required under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S. Code 1681b. Under the FCRA, a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only under specific, lawful purposes listed in 1681b ( a ). Any entity that accessed my credit file without my authorization or without a valid legal reason has done so in violation of this federal law. Upon reviewing my credit reports, I found entries that I did not authorize, nor did I initiate any transaction that would justify such access. These unauthorized entries violate 1681b ( f ), which prohibits users from obtaining a consumer report without a permissible purpose. Legal Precedent : In the case of XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX the court ruled in favor of the plaintiff, stating that a credit report pulled without a valid permissible purpose under FCRA constitutes a willful violation, which is actionable. Furthermore, multiple credit bureaus were defendants in recent lawsuits filed in XXXX for re-reporting or permitting access to consumer reports after the accounts were removed, which is also considered a willful disregard of consumer rights.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute inaccurate and inconsistent information being reported to the credit reporting agencies ( CRAs ) regarding the above-referenced account. The reporting on this closed account is not only conflicting between XXXX  and TransUnion, but it is also inaccurate, unverifiable, and in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). TransUnion is reporting the account as 120 days past due. 

Experian is reporting the same account as 150 days past due. 

The payment history across both bureaus reflects inconsistent and erroneous data, and does not accurately depict the accounts status during its lifecycle.

These inconsistencies violate FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), which mandates that furnishers may not report information they know or have reasonable cause to believe is inaccurate. 

Both CRAs have a duty under FCRA 607 ( b ) to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. The inconsistent and unsupported data on this account fails to meet that legal standard.

I am invoking my rights under FCRA 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) and 611 ( a ) to request a full reinvestigation and a copy of any and all documentation used to verify the information reported, including a full payment history from the original creditor. 

If the CRAs and the creditor are unable to produce verifiable records that justify the differing delinquencies and reported history, the account must be corrected or deleted in accordance with federal law.
