Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have identified serious billing errors under 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ) on my credit report, including unverified late payment marks and the creditor 's failure to accurately reflect payments and credits. Despite my prior formal request for evidence substantiating these late marks, the creditor has failed to provide any legally required proof of investigation or verification. Furthermore, the creditor did not issue a proper billing statement at least XXXX  days before the due date, as mandated by law, rendering any late payment reporting invalid. This blatant disregard for accurate reporting is unacceptable. I demand that these inaccuracies be immediately corrected by updating the items to 'Paid as Agreed ' or removing them entirely from my credit report.

Subject : Unreasonable Delay in Issuing Escrow Refund To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally complain about U.S. Banks handling of my escrow refund. I requested my refund to be sent by mail on XX/XX/year>, and despite multiple follow-ups, the bank did begin the refund process until XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX a month later. After contacting US Bank on XX/XX/XXXX about this issue, US Bank refused to expedite the delivery of my check to avoid further delays. 

According to standard banking practices, refunds should be processed in a timely manner. This delay has caused unnecessary inconvenience and financial hardship. When I contacted U.S. Bank, I was not given a valid reason for the extended delay. 

I request an immediate review of this issue and an explanation for the delay. Additionally, I ask that measures be taken to ensure that similar delays do not occur in the future. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter. Please respond at your earliest convenience. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint to request the deletion of a specific account from my credit report with Equifax Information Service LLC due to inaccurate and inconsistent information, based on my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ).

Details of the Account in Dispute : Account Number : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXX Incorrect information identified in reports from all three credit bureaus. 
Legal Grounds for Information Deletion : Right to Accurate Information ( FCRA, Section 609 - 15 U.S.C. 1681g ) : I request that the authenticity of this account be manually verified with the original creditor, rather than relying on the automated e-OSCAR system, and that I receive a detailed explanation of the verification process.

Reinvestigation of Disputed Information ( FCRA, Section 611 - 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) : Under this section, I demand a full reinvestigation of the account and immediate correction of any inaccurate information.

Deletion of Inaccurate or Unverified Information ( FCRA, Section 611 ( 5 ) - 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 5 ) ) : In accordance with the FCRA, if the information can not be verified, it must be removed from the report.

Responsibility of Information Furnishers ( FCRA, Section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ) : The creditors inability to validate this information warrants its removal.

Compliance with Accuracy Procedures ( FCRA, Section 607 - 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ) : The inaccuracy in my report suggests a failure to adhere to required accuracy procedures.

Permissible Purposes for Access ( FCRA, Section 604 - 15 U.S.C. 1681b ) : I request confirmation that access to my report was legitimate. If it was not, I request the removal of any unauthorized data.

Truth in Lending Act ( TILA, Section 1601 - 15 U.S.C. 1601 ) : TILA reinforces my right to accurate information, and the presence of this inaccurate account contradicts that right.

Supporting Case Law : In XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), the responsibility of credit bureaus to adequately investigate consumer disputes is emphasized. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX further reinforces the obligation to maintain reasonable procedures to ensure accuracy.

Complaint narrative:
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has documented XXXX repeated failure to properly investigate consumer disputes, even leading to legal action for violating the FCRA. This continued pattern of noncompliance is unacceptable, and I will not allow my credit profile to suffer due to negligence on your part. 

Federal law ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) clearly states that Equifax is required to conduct a thorough reinvestigation of disputed information within 30 days. Any item that can not be 100 % verified must be deleted immediately. I demand that these errors be corrected without delay, as they are actively harming my financial standing. Continued noncompliance will not be ignored.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Regarding Apple Cash Account Lock by XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to you to formally address a significant concern I have encountered with the Apple Cash service operated by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX On XXXX, my XXXX XXXX account was permanently locked without any prior warning or justification provided. 

As a result of this sudden account lock, I have been denied access to the funds held in my account. Despite contacting customer support, I was informed that the funds in my account are inaccessible, effectively restricting me from utilizing my own money. 

This action by XXXX XXXX XXXX has caused me undue financial distress and inconvenience. Furthermore, the lack of transparency and communication regarding the account lock has compounded my frustration with the situation. 

I request an immediate resolution to this matter, including the swift unlocking of my XXXX XXXX account and the restoration of access to my funds. Additionally, I seek clarification on the reasons behind the account lock and assurance that such incidents will not occur in the future. 

I expect a prompt response to this formal complaint and a resolution that upholds fairness and transparency in handling customer accounts. 
Thank you
