Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Navy Federal Credit Union for failing to properly investigate my unauthorized transfer claim and my appeal, in violation of Regulation E ( 12 CFR 1005.11 ). 

On XX/XX/year>, an unauthorized transfer of {$3900.00} was made from my Navy Federal account ending in XXXX. I did not authorize it, I did not benefit from it, and I immediately reported it. 

I initially filed my dispute with Navy Federal on XX/XX/year>. 

Despite providing all required information, Navy Federal has failed to conduct a lawful or reasonable investigation. 

Here are the key failures : XXXX. I identified the person who committed the fraud and gave Navy Federal her full name and phone number, but Navy Federal did not contact her at any point during the investigation or appeal. 
XXXX. I also provided Navy Federal my mothers name and phone number, who was a witness to the fraud. Navy Federal did not contact her either. 
XXXX. Navy Federal asked me for additional documentation. I provided everything they requested. They did not review or investigate the evidence I submitted. 
XXXX. Navy Federal denied my claim based on their assumption, not based on evidence. Regulation XXXX requires the bank to prove authorization, and they can not do so because I did not authorize this transaction. 
XXXX. The person who received the funds had her Navy Federal account closed due to fraud, which I informed Navy Federal of. They still took no corrective action.

Under Regulation E, Navy Federal is required to : Conduct a reasonable and documented investigation Contact relevant parties and witnesses Review all evidence provided Demonstrate authorization or return the consumers funds Provide provisional credit when deadlines are exceeded Navy Federal has failed at every required step.

I request that the CFPB require Navy Federal to : XXXX. Apply the mandatory provisional credit of {$3900.00} immediately XXXX. Provide documentation of all investigative steps taken XXXX. Reopen and complete the investigation in compliance with Regulation E XXXX. Permanently reimburse the funds being they can not prove authorization Also they will not send me a copy of their investigation procedure and they did not call the neither parties. 

Thank you for your time and assistance.

This is from me and not a credit repair company. I am requesting the removal of inaccurate and unauthorized accounts from my credit report. These items were not opened, authorized, or verified by me, and l 've attached documentation in support of this claim. These accounts and inquiries do not belong to me and were added without my permission or proper verification.

I've submitted supporting documentation, including a consumer statement and official FTC report, to verify this matter. I am requesting these items be removed so my credit report reflects only accurate, verifiable information. Under Section 605B of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I am exercising my right to block this information from appearing on my credit profile.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, Thank you for reviewing my case. I would like to clarify several important points regarding Synchronys response related with close case XXXX Submitted to the CFPB on XX/XX/2025. 


1. Synchronys statement that I never contacted them is incorrect. 
I did call Synchrony, and I made the {$720.00} payment during that phone call with their representative. Their claim that I did not reach out is factually wrong. 

2. I received statements, but I have limited English ability. 
Although statements were mailed to me, I could not understand the promotional financing terms because my English is not good. For almost two years, I paid regularly because I believed it was a normal balance. Only when the balance did not decrease did I ask a friend to read the statement for me that is when I finally understood the problem. 

3. I am a low-income mother raising three children. 
Right now, in this difficult economic environment, I simply can not afford the additional deferred interest of over {$1100.00}. I have been trying my best to pay, and I paid a large amount as soon as I understood the issue. 

4. The interest increased during the dispute period, which is unfair. 
When I first contacted Synchrony regarding the interest problem, my balance was {$1000.00}. 
Now, after nearly two months of dispute discussions, the amount increased to {$1100.00}. 
I do not believe I should be responsible for interest that grew while I was actively disputing the issue. This feels unfair to me. 

I am asking CFPB for assistance because this situation is financially overwhelming for me. I acted in good faith, I contacted Synchrony, I made payments for two years, and I only failed to understand the terms due to a language barrier. 

I respectfully request CFPBs help in asking Synchrony to remove or reduce the deferred interest, especially the interest added during the dispute period. 

Thank you sincerely for your help. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL

Complaint narrative:
Sir, Enclosed is an accurate accounting of my account. 

Synchrony refund requested for illegal charge and ignored is {$16000.00} of XXXX XXXX. 

To be redundant this was charged without my knowledge, permission, or signature on a card not in my possession much less activated and was represented to be a construction loan by your agent, for he proffered Synchrony 's application/contract and made false representations on Synchrony 's behalf. 

Payments made, XX/XX/year>. - {$1400.00} XX/XX/year>. - {$1400.00} I have copies of the above cancelled checks in my possession. 
Current statement should read without illegal charge refund and the two pmts made {$13000.00}. 

Instead you're erroneous statement is for {$15000.00} overcharging me {$2200.00}. 

You owe me {$16000.00} of XX/XX/year> with ( llegal charge refunded ) and pmts of + {$1400.00} XXXX & {$1400.00} XXXX. A total refund is {$19000.00} ( plus interest ) is due by Synchrony after said dispute is credited and the book keeping errors corrected. 

I am sure you understand that I will be not making any additional payments to Synchrony. 

Synchrony communication in reference to this dispute is nonexistent, I have been repeatedly ignored. This is In spite of a multitude of communications. You have colluded with XXXX XXXX XXXX in this highly suspicious charge.My next commmunications will be with the appropriate government regulatory agencies.
