Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: SANTANDER HOLDINGS USA, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
My name is XXXX XXXX, and I financed a XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) through Santander Consumer USA, Account # XXXX. 

My car was recently repossessed after I fell behind on payments because of financial hardship. Im not making excuses, but Ive been struggling to stay on my feet. That car was how I got to work, and losing it has made everything even harder. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter titled Notice of Our Plan to Sell Property saying the vehicle could be sold anytime after XX/XX/XXXX. Since then, Ive called and emailed Santander several times trying to get help or at least find out if theres a way to make payments and get the car back. Every time, Im told theres nothing they can do. No one will send me the reinstatement amount in writing or explain if theres any way to work something out. 

Im not refusing to pay. I just need more time. If I could get even a small extension or the chance to make partial payments, I could come up with the money to bring my account current and get back on the road. Right now, Im without transportation, which makes it almost impossible to work and fix the situation.

Im asking the CFPB to help me get a written response from Santander and to have them pause the sale of my car long enough for me to make arrangements. Im trying to take responsibility and make things right. I just need a little more time and a fair chance to do it.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be updated. 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. EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION 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! Update the late payments from my consumer reports.

They stand on their ground that card was activated but not even speaking to a supervisor worked very unprofessional. they said another one will be mail out again waited nothing XX/XX/XXXX they send an email Your XXXX XXXX statement is ready, what is wrong with this people when I open it had a bunch of charges that almost used up the XXXX credit line. i called again because at this point, I'm very upset and they explained to me where the charges were made in different towns and stores that I have never even known of or been there. even Gas when I do n't drive or have a car. I spoke to them firmly and an investigation started the charges were written off or deleted from that account .i told them I did not want their card anymore don't even bother to send me another one close the account, they closed the account and ever since have continue to send me those harassing emails to pay the statement of 2 cards the original and the replacement that i never ever received.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX  Subject : XXXX XXXX  Furnisher Reporting a Charge-Off Without Sending Required Notices XXXX XXXX To : XXXX XXXX Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) XXXX XXXX  From : XXXX XXXX CBNA XXXX XXXX Regarding : XXXX XXXX  CBNA, Account no : # XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Summary of Complaint : XXXX XXXX I am disputing the way CBNA is furnishing a charge-off on my consumer report. They have failed to comply with federal law by not providing me with either : 1. A Negative Information Notice under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 7 ) ( FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 7 ) ), and 2. An Adverse Action Notice under 15 U.S.C. 1681m ( FCRA 615 ).

Both notices are mandatory, and the furnisher must provide them to me in writing. 

XXXX XXXX  Details of the Issue : XXXX XXXX  - The account in question is a credit card issued by CBNA- The account reported positively for a period of time. 

- After I became delinquent, CBNA charged it off and began reporting derogatory information to the credit bureaus.- I never received a Negative Information Notice. 

- I never received an Adverse Action Notice. 

XXXX XXXX  Why This Matters : XXXX XXXX - The Negative Information Notice exists so consumers are warned before derogatory data damages their credit. 

- The Adverse Action Notice exists so consumers know their rights to review, obtain, and dispute their credit report. 

XXXX XXXX  What I Am Requesting : XXXX XXXX 1. Provide proof that both required notices were mailed to me, and provide actual copies.

2. If no proof exists, delete the charge-off tradeline from all credit reporting agencies and cease further furnishing. XXXX XXXX Consequences of Non-Compliance : XXXX XXXX XXXX Failure to send a Negative Information Notice violates 623 ( a ) ( 7 ) and makes the tradeline unlawfully furnished.

- Failure to send an Adverse Action Notice is a direct violation of 615 and gives me the right to sue under 1681n and 1681o.

XXXX XXXX Relief Requested : XXXX XXXX XXXX Immediate investigation and enforcement action by CFPB.

- Written confirmation that proof is provided or deletion of the charge-off occurs.

Complaint narrative:
Im submitting this complaint because there are several hard inquiries still showing on my Equifax credit report dated XX/XX/XXXX, that I never authorized.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), a company must have my written or electronic consent before making a hard inquiry. Since I never provided authorization, Im requesting that these inquiries be reviewed and removed unless the creditors can provide proper documentation showing I gave consent. 
The inquiries Im disputing are : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX
