Complaint narrative:
I am writing this to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these funds were unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that zelle 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.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have disputed inaccurate information on my credit report with XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX multiple times, but the errors persist. Despite my repeated attempts to resolve this, no meaningful action has been taken to correct the discrepancies. 

The following violations apply to this matter : 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) : This challenges the failure to investigate disputes within the required 30-day timeframe, resulting in delays in correcting inaccurate information. 

15 USC 1681e ( b ) : This challenges the accuracy requirement, as the credit bureaus failed to ensure that the information reported was as accurate as possible. 

15 USC 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) : This challenges the reporting of outdated information, which should have been removed after the legally required period, but continues to appear on my credit report. 

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate these violations and ensure the credit bureaus comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act by correcting the inaccuracies and ensuring timely, accurate reporting.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against Navy Federal Credit Union regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds when transactions were authorized, I was charged fees due to lagged posting of charges and credits. This issue aligns with recent CFPB finding against Navy Federal for similar practices, where transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initially available funds. I believe these practices are unfair and request an investigation into my account transactions.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Experian for failing to fulfill properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. Despite my submissions, Experian consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes.. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate removal the disputed accounts, as Experian inaction violate federal law and my rights as a consumer. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C, 1681 ( i ), which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, XXXX 's actions mat also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S. C 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Experian complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.
