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.

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Kriya Capital, LLC
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
A collection account is being reported on my credit file that has not been properly validated. I exercised my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) by requesting validation of the alleged debt. The furnisher failed to provide any legitimate documentation proving that the debt is mine, that the amount is accurate, or that they have the legal authority to collect it. 
Despite the lack of verification, this account continues to appear on my credit report, which constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requiring only accurate and verifiable information to be reported. The continued reporting of an unvalidated account is inaccurate and misleading.

Complaint narrative:
Request for Removal of Unauthorized Credit Inquiries under 15 U.S.C. 1681b To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute and request the removal of unauthorized credit inquiries appearing on my credit report. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ), a consumer reporting agency may only furnish a consumer report when there is a permissible purpose and with the consumers authorization. 

After reviewing my credit file, I identified inquiries that I did not authorize or initiate. These inquiries were made without my written consent or a permissible purpose as defined under federal law. Therefore, they constitute a violation of my rights under the FCRA. 

I am requesting that these unauthorized inquiries be investigated and permanently removed from my credit report. Please provide written confirmation once this matter has been resolved.

I am filing this complaint because [ XXXX  / XXXX  / TransUnion ] has willfully ignored its duties under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ). Despite my disputes, the bureau failed to conduct a proper reinvestigation within 30 days, did not delete unverifiable information, and has not provided results. This violates 1681i and 1681e ( b ). Courts have made it clear that consumers can not be left with inaccurate credit reports : in XXXX XXXX TransUnion, XXXX ( XXXX ), the court held inaccuracies must be corrected whether factual or legal ; in XXXX ( XXXX ), the Supreme Court reaffirmed broad FCRA liability ; and in XXXX XXXX TransUnion ( XXXX ), TransUnion paid {$23.00} XXXX after mishandling consumer disputes.

Company: Chime Financial Inc

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Chimes handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using chime numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and chime failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that chime has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety. My account was closed and I never received answers.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I deposited XXXX checks into my Chase checking account, including XXXX issued by the U.S. Treasury. Chase placed all of these deposits on hold until XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted Chase twice by phone ( on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ) and was told they were waiting on the Treasury to confirm the funds. 

Under Regulation C-C ( 12 CFR Part 229, Section 229.10 ), U.S. Treasury checks are next-day availability items, meaning at least {$5500.00} should be released by the next business day. I have been a Chase customer since XX/XX/XXXX and my account is in good standing. Chase has not provided a written explanation for this extended hold. I am requesting the CFPB review whether this delay complies with Regulation C-C and ask that my funds be released in accordance with federal law.
