Consumer complaint received 2025-08-07 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Self Financial Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding a late payment reported by Self Financial , Inc. in XX/XX/year>. I acknowledge that I did miss that payment, but I am not disputing the accuracy. I am simply requesting a one-time goodwill adjustment. 

Before this late payment, I made XXXX consecutive on-time payments, and the account is now closed and fully paid off. I have contacted Self Financial directly, both by phone and through a written goodwill letter, to explain my situation and ask for leniency based on my otherwise strong payment history. 

Unfortunately, they informed me that they do not make goodwill adjustments under any circumstances, and refused to review my request further. I believe this policy is overly rigid, especially given that I have demonstrated financial responsibility over an extended period. 

I understand Self is obligated to report accurate information under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), but I also know that they are not prohibited from making goodwill adjustments. Many financial institutions offer this flexibility as a courtesy to loyal customers. 

I respectfully ask the CFPB to review this matter and encourage Self Financial to reconsider my request for a goodwill adjustment, given my consistent history of on-time payments and the significant negative impact this one isolated mistake is having on my credit.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I was fraudulently charged 4 times in the amount totaling {$1100.00}. These charges were for XXXX XXXX locations in California, which did not make any sense to me. After calling my bank ( CHASE ) and filing a claim, I was confident it would all resolve itself after they helped me reset my chase app login information and issued me a temporary credit in that amount. This would change this morning, where I wake up to find out my account is overdrawn because the claim I filed was denied and all of the credit was reversed. After calling chase once again, they told me my claim was denied because they found no evidence of fraudulent behavior. They told me that there was no evidence of another device on my account, and therefore the charge was due to my information leaking online somewhere. This would lead them to deny giving me any compensation for the situation.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
As a direct result of a recent data breach, my personally identifiable information was compromised and misused without my knowledge or consent. This led to the appearance of unauthorized accounts, unfamiliar credit inquiries, and inaccurate late payment entries on my credit reportall of which I did not initiate, authorize, or recognize. 
I am formally requesting a comprehensive reinvestigation into these accounts and inquiries under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ), and I ask that all inaccurate, unverifiable, or fraudulent information be permanently removed from my credit file. I have enclosed supporting documentation, including an Identity Theft Report, to assist in resolving this matter.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IA

Complaint narrative:
I have never legally gone by these personal information nor do not currently reside at the listed residence. The inclusion of inaccurate aliases and unrelated or outdated addresses not only violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) which requires credit reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy but also creates a serious risk of identity confusion and impairs my ability to obtain credit under accurate and fair conditions. The presence of such erroneous personal information also raises concerns of data mishandling, especially in light of recent national data breaches. Despite previous attempts to have this information corrected, Bureaus might have failed to remove the incorrect aliases and address entries, even though I have never used these names and do not reside at the listed locations.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Ive recently discovered several late payment notations on my credit report that are completely false, and I want to make it clear that I will not tolerate these inaccuracies being used to misjudge my financial character. These harmful entries are dragging down my credit score, affecting my access to opportunities, and putting unnecessary strain on my mental and emotional health. Some of these alleged late payments were in fact made on time, while others may stem from clerical mistakes or internal processing delays that were never communicated to me. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that every piece of data on a consumer report be factually accurate and verifiable by original documentation. That means if these late payment entries can not be backed up with real, dated billing statements or signed agreements, they should not be reported at all. I am demanding that these entries be immediately corrected or removed, depending on what the documentation proves. If the credit reporting agencies or furnishers continue to ignore this matter, I will interpret that as a willful and deliberate violation of federal lawand respond accordingly. I deserve better, and I will fight until this is made right.

Based on the information in XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  credit dispute letter and report, here is a * * professional, paragraph-form response * * to the question : -- - Upon reviewing my credit report, I noticed multiple inaccurate and unresolved negative entries that continue to harm my credit despite previous dispute attempts. For example, a XXXX XXXX account shows a charge-off with remarks stating dispute resolved ; reported by grantor, but no supporting documentation or original agreement has ever been provided to verify this account. Another XXXX XXXX account is showing a charged-off balance that actually exceeds the credit limit, which is both financially inaccurate and misleading. Additionally, XXXX XXXX is reporting a \ {$540.00} charge-off on a \ {$300.00} credit line, which reflects faulty reporting or penalty stacking. I also discovered a collection account with XXXX XXXX XXXX linked to XXXX, which was never validated as required under FDCPA Section 809. Furthermore, several hard inquiries appear on my filesuch as from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXthat I did not authorize. These were reported without any notice or my consent. Despite disputing these items, no verification has been sent to me. As this is now my XXXX dispute round, I am deeply concerned with the continued reporting of unverifiable, inaccurate, and unauthorized information.
