Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, 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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law. ''

Complaint narrative:
You have reported inaccurate and unauthorized accounts on my credit report, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) requiring a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates maximum possible accuracy. These false entries are damaging and unjust, especially since Ive never opened or authorized these accounts. If you fail to investigate and correct this, I may pursue legal action under the FCRA and FDCPA ( 15 U.S. Code 1692e ) for deceptive and misleading reporting.

Complaint narrative:
THE REPORTING AGENCY HAS FAILED TO PROVIDE THE REQUIRED METHOD OF VERIFICATION AND HAS REFUSED TO DISCLOSE THE SPECIFIC SOURCES OR DOCUMENTATION USED TO VERIFY THE DISPUTED INFORMATION, IN DIRECT VIOLATION OF 15 U.S.C. 1681I ( A ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( III ). THIS FAILURE DENIES ME MY STATUTORY RIGHT TO UNDERSTAND HOW AND FROM WHOM THE DATA WAS VERIFIED. INSTEAD OF PROVIDING ANY SUBSTANTIVE PROOF OR AUTHENTIC RECORDS, THE AGENCY MERELY RE-STATED THE SAME INFORMATION THAT WAS ALREADY IN DISPUTE AN ACTION THAT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A VALID OR LAWFUL REINVESTIGATION.

THIS BEHAVIOR SHOWS A CLEAR PATTERN OF PROCEDURAL MISCONDUCT AND NONCOMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL INVESTIGATION STANDARDS. THE AGENCYS ACTIONS INDICATE EITHER A TOTAL ABSENCE OF PROOF OR AN INTENTIONAL REFUSAL TO DISCLOSE SUCH PROOF, BOTH OF WHICH VIOLATE THE FCRAS REQUIREMENTS FOR TRANSPARENCY, ACCOUNTABILITY, AND DUE PROCESS.

FURTHERMORE, THE AGENCY IGNORED MY CONSUMER STATEMENT AND FAILED TO INCLUDE IT IN THE FILE OR REPORTS PROVIDED TO THIRD PARTIES, AS REQUIRED BY 15 U.S.C. 1681I ( B ). THIS DENIES ME THE RIGHT TO HAVE MY DISPUTE FAIRLY REPRESENTED AND FURTHER DEMONSTRATES DISREGARD FOR CONSUMER PROTECTION OBLIGATIONS.

THE FAILURE TO PROVIDE THE METHOD OF VERIFICATION, TO DISCLOSE ORIGINAL SOURCE DATA, AND TO INCLUDE MY CONSUMER STATEMENT IS A SYSTEMIC BREACH OF DUTY THAT UNDERMINES THE CREDIBILITY AND INTEGRITY OF THE ENTIRE REPORTING PROCESS.

My consumer report contains inaccurate personal information, unverified accounts, and unauthorized inquiries that were added without my authorization.

Issue: Closing your account — Company closed your account
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have been a Capital One customer for more than 12 years with perfect payment history and responsible account usage. On XXXX, all three of my credit card accounts were suddenly closed by Capital One after one payment from my XXXX XXXX account was returned. 

The returned payment was not intentional and was caused by a banking error, not by insufficient funds, misuse, or any attempt to avoid payment. As soon as I noticed the issue, I immediately made a new payment, and it went through successfully. 

I called Capital One to request information, and they told me the closure happened because the payment reversed. I explained that this was a one-time mistake caused by XXXX, and I corrected it right away. Despite this, all three of my long-standing accounts were permanently closed without any opportunity for review. 

I am requesting that Capital One conduct a manual review of my accounts. I have only 1 missed payment in 12 years, and have always maintained my accounts in good standing. This was an isolated, unintended error, and closing all of my accounts over a single returned payment feels extremely unfair and disproportionate. 

I am asking CFPB to help me get Capital One to reconsider my case and reinstate my accounts, or at least provide a clear and reasonable explanation supported by their policies. 

Thank you.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Complaint narrative:
This is my final notice regarding your ongoing noncompliance with federal credit reporting laws. I previously disputed the accuracy and legitimacy of several items on my credit report, yet your agency has failed to act in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

Your violations include : Failure to validate the debt as required under 15 USC 1692g ( Section 809 ( b ) ).

Continuing communication after a certified cease-and-desist request, violating 15 USC 1692c ( Section 805 ( c ) ).

Harassment under 15 USC 1692d ( Section 806 ).

Recently, I received notice that your investigation was complete, but the disputed accounts remain on my credit report. These accounts are not only inaccurate but were never authorized by me. No valid contract exists, and I have not provided any written consent for the reporting of these accounts, as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681b.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: NBT BANCORP INC.
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
NBT Bank assessed a {$980.00} Paid Item ( s ) Insufficient Funds fee to my business checking account ending in XXXX. An additional {$35.00} returned item fee was also charged. I requested the Business Checking fee disclosure, but the bank has been unable to provide any Business Checking fee schedule that authorizes this fee or explains how it was calculated. 

Issue : NBT Bank has not provided : Any Business Checking overdraft fee schedule Any Business Checking NSF/Paid Item fee amounts Any Business Checking per-item pricing Any business daily limit Any disclosed rules for bulk or aggregated overdraft fees Any documentation listing or authorizing a {$980.00} fee The only fee schedule NBT provided is a consumer fee schedule, which explicitly states For consumer accounts only.

The Business Disclosure Package they provided ( 26 pages ) contains no fee amounts at all no overdraft fees, NSF fees, Paid Item fees, or business pricing of any kind.

Because the bank has not provided ANY business-account fee disclosures showing : What overdraft fees apply How fees are calculated Whether business accounts use per-item pricing Whether business accounts have any limits Any mention of the {$35.00} or {$980.00} fee NBT assessed a fee that does not appear in ANY disclosure provided to me.

Why this is a problem : Charging a fee that is not listed in any available fee schedule or account agreement is an undisclosed fee. NBT representatives have given multiple conflicting statements, including : There is no limit for business accounts.

The consumer fee schedule applies to both.

The consumer grace rule does not apply to business.

However, none of these interpretations are reflected in the written disclosures. 

The bank has not provided : A valid Business Checking fee schedule Any document showing how the {$980.00} fee was authorized Any document explaining how the fee was calculated The lack of disclosure makes the fee inconsistent with the banks own published materials and standard commercial banking practices.

Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC

Complaint narrative:
Portfolio Recovery Associates is reporting a {$6200.00} collection account that they can not validate. PRA sued me in Texas under case number # XXXX and failed to prove ownership of the debt. The case was dismissed in my favor because they could not provide any documentation or chain of title. 

Despite losing the case for lack of proof, PRA continues reporting the account to the credit bureaus as valid. They provide no original creditor, no account number, no proof of assignment, and no documents linking me to the alleged account.

This is inaccurate and unlawful credit reporting under the FCRA and FDCPA. I am requesting the CFPB require PRA to delete this unverified account from my credit reports. And cease contacting me.

Continued failure to correct these inaccuracies constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law. I expect your prompt attention and a written confirmation of resolution as soon as possible.
