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: NV

Complaint narrative:
I recently submitted a letter regarding the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report, but it's now been over 30 days, and I haven't received any response. This lack of action is really concerning. According to Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), youre required to investigate disputed items within 30 days, and if you don't, those items must be removed from my report.

Since it's been more than 30 days, I expect my credit report to be updated immediately, reflecting the removal of the disputed accounts. If this isn't resolved quickly, Ill have no choice but to consider legal action, as this ongoing delay has caused me considerable stress. 

Additionally, I was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion data breaches, which makes me even more worried about how my personal information is being handled.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Request for 1099-C Form Account Charged Off To Whom It May Concern, I am writing regarding an account that appears on my credit report under your companys name and is marked as a charge off. This indicates that you reported this balance to the IRS as income due to cancellation of debt. Pursuant to this status, I am formally requesting a copy of IRS Form 1099-C ( Cancellation of Debt ) for my records.

On my credit report, it is indicated that this account has been charged off, suggesting that the debt has been canceled and reported as such to the IRS. If this is correct, a Form 1099-C should have been filed and provided to both me and the IRS as required by law. Please provide me with a copy of this 1099-C form, as this is necessary for my tax records. 

If you do not provide this form or can not substantiate that this account was properly reported to the IRS, I will consider taking legal action for statutory damages and potential fraud. Failure to provide accurate documentation may be a violation of both federal tax law and credit reporting standards. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to receiving the requested documentation within 15 days.

Company: Block, Inc.
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, my bank account was used to traffic money into somebody else 's account that I didn't know. Someone put fake checks into my checking account by taking photos and depositing them into my account via mobile phone. The money was taken out of my checking account and transferred into another person 's Cashapp account. While this was happening Cashapp contacted me and let me know that there was fraudulent activity going on in my account. They froze the money being transferred from my bank account to their Cashapp account. Cashapp not only notified me but also froze the account and let me know that it was being used to traffic money. I contacted my bank my bank where they froze the account stopped the checks and waited for the process of the funds being restored. I got refunds on all the {$900.00} checks except XXXX. 7 days after they froze the pending transaction, {$900.00} was taken out of my bank account and placed into a Cashapp account that was not mine. I've contacted Cashapp numerous times over and over asking for my money to be refunded they won't refund the money they said I need to contact law-enforcement and let them know to contact them. I have contacted law-enforcement, filed this with the FTC and XXXX have had no response from Cash App whatsoever. This has caused my accounts to close, checks to bounce, payments late, and much more. Ive lost so much money and they wont even respond now. They are responsible for this money that they knew was fraud and now they're wanting me to pay for it. I don't see how this is legal I don't see how this is even legitimate.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024, I disputed a transaction that was charged to my Discover Card for {$1500.00} payable to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/2024, I authorized a payment to this merchant in the amount of {$150.00}. This was a DONATION. I did not receive any goods or services for the amount paid. It was a contribution toward a stranger 's vet bill. When I realized I was charged {$1500.00} I first contacted the merchant. The merchant acknowledged my donation and said that donations were not refundable. They insist i donated {$1500.00}. I received no goods or services for this transaction. It was a donation. I initiated the dispute with Discover on XX/XX/XXXX. 
, Discover found in favor of the merchant, and on XX/XX/XXXX, I filed an appeal. 
I received an email saying the decision had already been made. However, Discover and the merchant have failed to provide me with any evidence that I approved {$1500.00}. I did NOT. This was a donation. It was a payment for another individual and was not intended to be payment in full. I did not approve {$1500.00}, I approved {$150.00}. 

Discover provided a copy of the receipt that the merchant provided them. It had no signature, and was a receipt that the merchant created for {$1500.00}. NOTHING showed that authorized {$1500.00}. 

This was a telephone transaction, so I had no evidentiary proof that i said {$150.00} and not {$1500.00}. The merchant also had no proof that i authorized {$1500.00} instead of {$150.00}. As their " proof '' the provided a receipt, that does not show my name, contain a signature, or have any proof of the dollar amount that was authorized, only the amount of the incorrect charge. 

Discover has refused to require the merchant prove that it was {$1500.00}. They told me that since I gave the credit card number to the merchant, it was between me and the merchant. In other words, the merchant could have charged me any dollar amount they chose with no proof or authorization. 

I am devastated by this financial loss and disgusted by how Discover has treated my dispute.

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB representatives, for weeks now I have disputed Empowers XXXX  reporting with the Credit Bureaus regarding my CLOSED ACCOUNT. On XX/XX/year>, my account was closed and my subscription with Empower was closed once I paid my line of credit off. Per my request, I wanted to close this account and no longer use Empower for a line of credit. I was sent an email the account was closed and I also emailed Empower regarding this. Empower continues to put comments that my account is still active and current on my dispute investigations. I want Empower to stop providing false inaccurate statements and update their records as well as my credit report status as closed. I have my bank statements to prove my paid off line of credit. Also, Empower is showing I had a high balance of {$200.00}, line of credit was {$170.00}. That was also inaccurate reporting. The {$3.00} was a charge for processing and ACH transaction fees. I paid all that was due. The additional {$3.00} should not be as part of the line of credit issued.
