I submitted a dispute to Experian XXXX XXXX requesting that my old address be removed and updated with my current address. I provided a copy of my ID/SS Card & a current utility bill to support my request. The dispute was opened with Experian but the address has not been updated. It still reflects the old address.

Complaint narrative:
Ally Financial XXXX. I've requested all documents needed to finance the lease buyout through a separate bank. They have outright refused for a month now and my lease is up and they are charging daily fees now. They have intentionally sent the wrong documents or dated incorrectly. They are refusing to send the bank I chose simple things like a lien release guaranteeing that they'll send the title and how long it'll take for that bank to receive it. The Lease buyout letter is always dated for XX/XX/XXXX even to this day. I have called somewhere around XXXX times. They refuse to escalate my situation to managers. They'll even tell me that someone will call me in 2 days and that never happens. I already have an approved loan and can't secure it because they want to be protected and without Ally providing documentation committing to providing this other bank the Title they don't want to finalize the loan. HOWEVER, Ally Financial is TOTALLY willing to provide me a loan direct through themselves with XXXX effort for their horrendous interest rates. There's TONS of other people suffering from Ally Financial 's exploitive behavior. You can search online and see tons of other people describing the same issues. Even other banks know that they do this.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I trust this correspondence finds you in good health. I am writing to bring to your attention a troubling discrepancy within my credit report concerning late payments associated with my accounts. Upon meticulous review of my report, I have identified instances where late payments have been inaccurately recorded, adversely affecting my credit standing. 
Upon contacting the companies linked to these accounts, they acknowledged a fault on their part. They have committed to rectifying the error by updating and amending my accounts to accurately reflect my payment history. They attributed these inaccuracies to a system glitch that led to the erroneous reporting of late payments. 

It is perplexing to me that while other credit bureaus have already rectified the status of these accounts, your bureau continues to report this bankruptcy. This disparity in reporting raises doubts regarding the verification protocols employed by your bureau to ensure the precision of reported information.

When I called to complain about this, I get the supervisor and all of a sudden their having technical issues and phones breaking up. When i call back it says their closed. I paid them a {$1000.00} and the balance showing is XXXX. When asked about this they won't give me a straight answer. When asked why I'm charged for cash advance fees when I don't use it they say they have to look into it. Then they place me on hold and the phone goes bad. I've been calling for 3 days now. I'm tired of being cheated and over charged. 

I noticed they were sued by the FTC for cheating consumers
