Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I submitted disputes to all three credit bureaus regarding inaccurate account information. One bureau properly conducted an investigation, determined the account was inaccurate, and removed it. However, the other credit bureaus failed to provide proper verification or conducted what I believe was a frivolous response. They continue reporting the inaccurate item despite being notified of the issue, in violation of FCRA 611, which requires a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information. I am requesting immediate correction of this inconsistent and harmful reporting. Below is a list of the accounts in question XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$2100.00} XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance : {$3400.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$1800.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance XXXX {$4800.00}

Issue: Unauthorized transactions or other transaction problem — 
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
The unauthorized transactions happened XX/XX/year>. Me and my mother have a joint account through Wells Fargo. She has her own account and I have my own account. Whoever did the transaction went through my account to get to hers and pulled out {$3000.00} worth of money, transferred it to my account and then start using the money. My mom was literally on the phone with them as the scammers were taking the money out. We filed a claim with Wells Fargo. They told us to call the stores that the money was spent at and try to see if they would issue me a refund- that did not happen. We called the stores, I did a police report for my missing debit card and tried to report back to Wells Fargo but instead of trying to help us get our money back. They tried to put the blame on me and said because it was through my account they could not give us our money back not even a provisionary loan. They ended up closing the claim and that was the end of it. After that, we no longer leave big amounts of money in our Wells Fargo account. They did lock my card and sent me over a new card but the outcome was definitely not what we wanted.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Date : XX/XX/year> To : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau P.O. Box 27170 Washington , DC 20038 Subject : Formal Complaint Against American Express Continued Reporting of Closed Account as Delinquent After Case Dismissed With Prejudice Dear CFPB Representative, I am filing this formal complaint regarding American Express, which continues to report my closed credit card account as late to the credit reporting agencies, despite the related case having been dismissed with prejudice. I am seeking immediate action and enforcement of applicable federal laws to protect my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting framework. 

Summary of Complaint : The American Express account in question has been closed. 

The case involving this account was dismissed with prejudice, legally preventing further claims or collection on the same issue. 

Despite dismissal, American Express continues to report the account as delinquent on my credit file. 

This reporting is false, misleading, and damaging to my creditworthiness. 

Legal Grounds : Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) Requires furnishers of information, like American Express , to report accurate and complete information. Reporting a closed account as delinquent post-dismissal constitutes a violation of this provision.

FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) Grants consumers the right to dispute inaccurate information and requires credit bureaus to investigate and correct or delete the data within 30 days.

FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) Requires credit reporting agencies to follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy of credit information. 

Dismissal With Prejudice under civil procedure rules means that American Express can not pursue further actions related to this debt. Continuing to report negatively constitutes unlawful collection and retaliation. 

My Formal Requests : Immediately remove the American Express account from all credit reports ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) as if it were never reported. 

Correct and adjust my credit score accordingly to reflect the removal and undo damage.

Permanently prohibit American Express from reporting this account again in the future.

Prevent any future negative reporting or re-insertion of this account by American Express under any format or variation.

Provide confirmation in writing that all actions have been completed.

Timeframe for Response : Under the FCRA, the CFPB and relevant credit reporting agencies are required to investigate and resolve disputes within 30 calendar days of receipt of this complaint. 

Thank you for your time and immediate attention to this matter. Please keep me informed of all developments, findings, and actions taken.

Company response to consumer: Closed with explanation
