Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally submit a complaint regarding the handling of inaccurate information on my credit report by the credit reporting agencies, despite my repeated efforts in dispute these errors. Despite multiple disputes filed with the bureau, they have failed to take appropriate action to update or delete these inaccuracies as required by law. This negligence has persisted despite my lawful right, under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I5 U.S.C. 1681, to have my credit report reflect only accurate and verifiable information. The FCRA mandates that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of information ( 15 U.S.C.le ( b ) ) and conduct a reasonable investigation of disputes raised by consumers ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ). The accounts in question, listed below, contain incorrect information that I have repeatedly disputed : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CHARGE-OFF : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX LATE PAYMENTS : XXXX OF XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
CFPB Complaint Summary Barclays mishandled my fraud dispute, reinstating the same fraudulent charge twice to make it appear as multiple charges ( {$110.00} x2 plus interest ). My replacement card ( ending XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was stolen and never received. Barclays reversed my provisional credit citing a chip transaction, which is impossible since I never had the card.

Worse, my account was reactivated without my consent. On XX/XX/year>, I received a fraudulent call from XXXX by someone posing as XXXX from Barclays Fraud Department. She had specific account information, including my closed account number and details of an alleged authorized user application, which proves Barclays suffered a catastrophic failure of customer data security. 

Numerous calls have been made throughout this traumatic ordeal. I have spoken with so many different individuals at Barclays. XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX...

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations.

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
The reported entries are inaccurate and do not reflect my true payment history. I have made several attempts to have these discrepancies reviewed and corrected, but no substantial action has been taken. Even after submitting all required documentation and following up multiple times, the errors remain unresolved. This situation has created financial hardship and has significantly impacted my well-being. Addressing these inaccuracies has become a stressful and exhausting process. 
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a credit report that truthfully represents my financial history, including the prompt correction of any outdated or incorrect information. I respectfully request immediate action to correct or remove these late payment entries. Failure to do so would constitute a violation of my rights under federal law. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I expect a swift and appropriate resolution.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Wells Fargo abruptly blocked and then closed my new credit card account ( ending in XXXX ) two weeks of issuing it to me. There were no unauthorized charges, no fraud alerts, no communication from the bank alerting me of any issue. Anytime there are questionable things on my cards, I always get a call or notification. In fact, I paid off the full balance before even knowing the card had been suspended.

After noticing the hold for your protection message, I made numerous calls over several weeks, often daily, to inquire about the issue. I have recordings of several of these calls for my records. Repeatedly, I was stonewalled and told that no information could be provided. One rep eventually said I had to go into a branch and ask a manager to call Wells Fargo directly. 

It wasnt until a branch manager in XXXX, CA, filed an internal complaint after she, herself was stonewalled in the same manner that I finally received an explanation after still waiting more than a week. So now, nearly a month after the hold, I was finally told XXXX needed a XXXX, and I was forwarded a letter that I never received by mail. I finally received it via email four days after the response deadline had already passed. 

Despite this delay, I immediately submitted a signed IRS Form XXXX as requested. No one ever explained why it was needed or what part of my account information was being confirmed. The same day I sent the form, Wells Fargo closed my card, claiming the records did not match IRS data, without telling me what didnt match, or reviewing my full tax documentation. I then escalated my complaint and spent two weeks, once again, getting stonewalled and passed around from department to department, all claiming they had no information and it was not their departments decision. 

Ive banked with Wells Fargo for over 30 years, and I was treated like a criminal with no due process, no respect, and no transparency. The account closure seriously impacted my credit. I still dont know what Wells Fargo claims was mismatched, and theyve refused to provide written detail or any opportunity to resolve it.

Company: EQUIFAX, 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.
