Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC

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.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: National Credit Systems,Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing the accuracy of a collection account reported by National Credit System for XXXX XXXX XXXX. The account was opened in XX/XX/XXXX but continues to be updated monthly through XX/XX/XXXX, despite no payment activity or consumer acknowledgment. This makes the debt appear active and recent, which is misleading and violates FCRA 607 ( b ).

There is no payment history on file, and no documentation has been provided to validate the {$8000.00} balance under FCRA 609 ( a ) ( 1 ). I have not received any lease agreement, charge breakdown, deposit notice, or proof that this debt was legally assigned to National Credit System. Additionally, under Texas Property Code 92.104 and 92.109, landlords must send deposit accounting within 30 days of move-out or forfeit the right to charge damages.

The account lacks a Date of First Delinquency, making it incomplete and
unverifiable under FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ). I have already submitted a dispute through my credit monitoring platform, but the account is still being reported inaccurately. I request the CFPB investigate this account and require its deletion if the furnisher can not legally validate it.

Company: Dave Operating, LLC
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
I requested that Dave revoke authorization for future ACH debits from my bank account after a payment was scheduled. I clearly informed them that I no longer authorize any electronic payments or debits, and that they should not attempt further withdrawals. Despite this, Dave has continued trying to process debits from my account. 

On XX/XX/year>, I revoked authorization and requested confirmation that no further payments would be processed. However, Dave responded that they can not honor my request due to an outstanding ExtraCash balance. They also stated that a payment scheduled for XX/XX/year>, was already authorized and could not be canceled. I disagree with this, as XXXX rules clearly allow consumers to revoke authorization for future payments. 

I believe Dave is violating XXXX rules and federal consumer protection laws by refusing to honor my ACH revocation request. I should have the right to stop future electronic debits from my account. This is causing me financial stress and concern about unauthorized withdrawals.

Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding a credit card account that Citibank , N.A . claims I owe and is currently suing me over. 
In response to the court summons, I filed a timely answer in XX/XX/year>, which included a formal request for full debt validation under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692g. 
Over four months passed with no response. Then today, in XX/XX/year>, I received a letter from the plaintiffs attorney, at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, that included only a few billing statements and a generic credit card agreement. The agreement does not contain my name, signature, or any identifying information. They also failed to provide : A signed contract or application, A purchase agreement A complete and itemized accounting of the alleged balance Proof of ownership and their legal right to collect or sue on the debt, etc. 
This is not adequate debt validation. The FDCPA requires that debt collectors provide clear and specific documentation when requested. This information was requested in XX/XX/year>, and it is now well beyond the 30-day reasonable period for a response.

Despite the account being in dispute and the insufficient validation provided, the company ( or its law firm ) continues to pursue a lawsuit and collection efforts. I was also improperly served a summons without a complaint attached and was later sent a letter attempting to reset a court date that had not been properly scheduled with the court. These actions demonstrate a pattern of disorganization and disregard for due process.

This incomplete and delayed response has caused confusion, emotional distress, and damage to my credit, as the account is still being reported negatively while under dispute. 
I respectfully request the CFPB to : Investigate Citibanks and/or their law firm 's handling of this matter Require full and proper debt validation before further legal or credit reporting action is allowed Remove the negative tradeline from my credit reports if they can not validate the debt in full Ensure compliance with all applicable provisions of the FDCPA and Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA )

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I mailed a check to Synchrony Bank to pay off my Venmo credit card on XX/XX/year> in amount of {$670.00}, check number XXXX. The check was cashed on XX/XX/XXXX. To date they have not applied the payment to my account. I have called and written them several times. They did apply a provisional credit to my account, but then later reversed that. While the provisional credit was in place, they lowered my credit line, so now my credit report shows this account as {$500.00} over the limit, when in fact it should be paid in full. I have also continued to accrue interest and make minimum payments.

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!
