Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Against Chime for Mishandling Unauthorized Transaction Disputes To : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX. XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX From : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NY XXXX XXXX XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX Dear CFPB Representative, I am filing a formal complaint against Chime Financial , Inc. for their mishandling of multiple unauthorized transaction disputes on my accounts. 

Between XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX, several unauthorized transactions occurred on my Chime accounts, including : {$180.00} transferred to Cash App Justjas on XX/XX/XXXX. 

{$100.00} ATM withdrawal and {$2.00} charge at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. 


These transactions were not made or authorized by me. Upon discovering them, I promptly reported the fraud and submitted dispute claims with Chime ( Claim IDs : XXXX and XXXX, among others ). I provided all relevant details, including the fact that I did not authorize these transactions and had no connection to the merchants or recipients involved. 

Despite this, Chime accep XXXX disputes wi ty h lower amount but denied XXXX of my dispute claims without providing adequate explanation or proof that the transactions were legitimately authorized by me. Their denials fail to consider my lack of consent, potential account compromise, and the fact that these transactions are inconsistent with my usual spending habits. 

Chimes actions appear to violate the protections afforded under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( XXXX ) and Regulation XXXX, which require financial institutions to investigate and resolve errors involving unauthorized electronic fund transfers. I believe Chime has failed to conduct a thorough and fair investigation as required by law. 

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate Chimes handling of my disputes and hold them accountable for not honoring my consumer protections. I seek the immediate reversal of these unauthorized charges, reimbursement of my funds, and confirmation that my account is secure from further unauthorized access.

Enclosures : Copies of Chimes denial letters Screenshots of disputed transactions Timeline of events Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

Sincerely XXXX XXXX

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing inaccurate information on my Experian credit report regarding my account balance. My credit limit was originally {$1400.00}. The creditor then reduced it to {$280.00}. 

When the limit was lowered, I immediately paid the balance down so only {$280.00} remained. Shortly after, I paid the {$280.00} almost entirely, leaving only {$30.00}. 

Despite this clear pattern of paying down my balance, my Experian report now states there was a balance increase. This is not correct. The actual sequence is : 1. Credit limit reduced from {$1400.00} to {$280.00} not a balance increase.

2. Balance reduced from {$1400.00} to {$280.00}.

3. Balance further reduced from {$280.00} to {$30.00}.

At no time did my balance increase. Every change in my account was a decrease. The only change resembling an increase was the creditors reduction of my credit limit, which is unrelated to my payments or spending.

This reporting error has negatively impacted my credit score. I am requesting that Experian investigate and correct my file to reflect the true decrease in balance and remove any negative scoring effects caused by this inaccuracy. 

Thank you for your prompt attention. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX  XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX 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 in to be removed. 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. XXXX  XXXX never sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 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! Delete the late payments from my consumer reports
