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

Complaint narrative:
Creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Account Number : XXXX This late payment is inaccurate and should be removed in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 
At the time of the payment, I was in a relationship with someone who had access to my personal laptop. After the relationship ended, I discovered that this individual had accessed my account without my permission and intentionally disabled my autopay settings. They later admitted over the phone that they were the one who made those changes. As a result, the scheduled payment was never processed, and I had no idea it failed until I noticed the late payment reported to the credit bureaus. 
I have since secured my accounts and changed all login credentials to prevent any future unauthorized access. I take my credit seriously and have a history of responsible payments, so this isolated late mark caused by tampering from someone else is not an accurate reflection of my creditworthiness. 
This situation falls under the protections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, specifically : 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 Furnishers are required to report accurate information and must correct any inaccuracies when notified 15 U.S. Code 1681i Credit reporting agencies must investigate disputed items and delete any unverifiable or inaccurate information within 30 days Because this late payment was caused by unauthorized access and not intentional nonpayment, I am requesting that it be removed from my credit report. If the furnisher can not provide documented evidence that I personally initiated the changes that led to the late payment, it must be deleted as required by law. 
Please notify me of the results of your investigation, and I appreciate your time and cooperation in resolving this matter.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX and Resulting XXXX : On XX/XX/scrub> 2024, I was involved in a XXXX XXXX that was not my fault. The motorcycle was totaled in the crash. 
As a result of the accident, I suffered severe injuries, including : XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, resulting in permanent XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
I lost enough blood to require approximately eight transfusions. 
Due to these injuries, I am permanently XXXX, unable to work, and awaiting the resolution of my XXXX case to begin receiving benefits. 

Insurance Denial : The motorcycle was insured under a liability-only policy, which did not cover the damages from the accident. 
OneMain Financial did not require comprehensive or collision insurance for the loan, leaving me unable to file a claim for the totaled motorcycle. 

Repeated Attempts to Notify OneMain Financial : I contacted OneMain Financial multiple times via phone to inform them of my accident, XXXX, and inability to work or make payments until my XXXX case is resolved. 
Despite explaining my situation, OneMain representatives were dismissive and rude. One representative explicitly stated, " We do not care, '' and demanded payment regardless of my physical condition.

On multiple occasions, I requested a voluntary repossession of the motorcycle, providing the exact location of the vehicle. OneMain refused to repossess the motorcycle and insisted that payments were still my responsibility.

Harassment and Threats : OneMain Financial has engaged in excessive and harassing communication, including spam calls and texts, to the point where I had to request that they cease phone contact and communicate with me strictly via mail.

Despite my request for voluntary repossession months ago, OneMain sent me a letter threatening to repossess the motorcycle, which I had already offered to surrender.

Refusal to Work with Me : OneMain Financial has refused to offer any form of assistance, including reduced payments, refinancing, account holds, or financial hardship programs.

Their refusal to work with me has caused significant XXXX and hardship, as I am a XXXX man with XXXX XXXX and numerous medical problems stemming from the accident.

Complaint narrative:
I was coerced into signing up for a loan with Affirm through a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX, with a personal trainer on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I was pressured during a XXXX  call, where I explicitly asked for time to consider the offer. The representative refused to allow that and insisted I commit on the spot. I was overwhelmed and confused, and they made me screen record myself as I completed the sign-up process. I did not understand that I was entering into a {$1900.00} financing agreement. For only 3 months. He made me pay before anything else. Affirm is having me pay {$2200.00} These tactics were manipulative and unethical. I never received full transparency, and I was not given a fair opportunity to consent. I am requesting that Affirm cancel this loan, as it was obtained under coercion, without clear explanation, and through deceptive business practices. 

I have not made any payments and the loan is still pending. I am trying to stop it before anything is charged to me, as I was coerced into signing under pressure and confusion. They saw me enter in all my personal information as I was made to share my screen to them.
