Complaint narrative:
Experian has been giving me a tuff time on the website I was unable to switch to the basic plan, I paid the {$24.00} to view my account to check for my disputes because it wouldn't let me switch to the basic account. after doing so I received this email saying " We received a recent request regarding your credit information that does not appear to have been sent directly by you or to be authorized by you. As a precautionary measure, we have not taken any action on your alleged request. According to the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, " '' if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information contained in a consumers file at a national consumer credit reporting company is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the company directly of such dispute, the company shall reinvestigate free of charge. '' '' I am well aware of Experian Stall Tactic I am aware of your attempts to delay the processing of many consumer 's disputes and challenges based on your belief that some consumers are working with a third-party such as a credit repair company. Your delay is illegal, as it is the right of all consumers to work with such a company if they so choose, and you have no legal basis for delaying the processing of those letters.

However, let me make it clear that my letters using were created using applicable software and regulations available to ALL consumers, and that this is your notice that any delay in the processing of my letters is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 5 1681i, which sets forth the procedure in which a Consumer Reporting Agency must investigate a consumer 's reasonable dispute, and lists out the exceptions, and will be considered willful disregard of my rights as a consumer and will be forwarded to my attorney for litigation purposes. There is no such exception that would legally allow you to delay the processing of a consumer 's letters to you based on an unfounded assumption that assistance from a third party may exist.

Please be advised that any and all letters you receive bearing my name have either been prepared by me or by my advisors on my behalf with my full knowledge and consent. Also be advised that I am aware that no statute in the FCRA suggests that a Power of Attorney must be provided to you, or that without said Power of Attorney documentation you are allowed to delay the processing of a consumer 's letters to you.

Complaint narrative:
This is not a duplicate this is not a duplicate My name is XXXX XXXX I'm a living breathing human being afforded all of my rights under the fcra and the fax act being a United States citizen this complaint/dispute is against TransUnion. It is in reference to cfpb complaint number XXXX. In the complaint reference to above I was asking TransUnion to remove the XXXX listing on my credit file they're investigation has taken longer than 30 days, and no extension has been applied for. Therefore it is well within my rights to use the Lost granted to me to use in the fcra and demand that the cfpb force TransUnion to delete the XXXX file from my credit report the scra states that the CRA has 30 days to complete the investigation unless applied for 15 days extension which has not happened. That being said the refusal to remove the XXXX file from my credit report will be at blatant and obvious disregard for the fcra 's laws which TransUnion is bound by once more I ask the cfpb to demand that TransUnion remove the XXXX file from my credit report per the fcra the CRA has 30 days to complete his reinvestigation it has extended past that time and I demand that it be removed immediately. The non removal of the account will be a violation of the fcra which will make me eligible for damages and transunion liable for any damages sought after in court

Complaint narrative:
Citi Bank Visa ( Cost card ). I did not activate my card. They charge the card for my Costco membership. I Called them and told them that I did not activate. They told me they that because I applied for the card that I agreed to put my " next time Costco membership '' on the card. I was upset about this - also .... I have to admit that I did not look at any bills -- just through away any junk mail - because any card that I have not activate I'm thinking is junk mail. Well... I guess I should not of???? I was charged, however, this is not why I'm really upset. It's because I called them ( after I randomly opened up one of junk credit card solicitations ) and found out that I had a bill with late fee 's. I ended up calling them and explaining my experience. They told me that they could not help me and that I owed them. I ended up paying them and told them to close my account! I was not happy but I just wanted to forget the experience. Later I got another bill from them, however, I was thinking that their billing was behind or they had made a mistake because I paid my bill and closed my account. To make a long story short, they ended up charging again for late fees. Mind you this is not just late fees the first time ( plus the bill ) but late fees again after I closed my account. I have them on recording this time so .... I think I'm pretty safe if they do it to me again. However, I'm not taking any chances. That's why I'm contacting you! Sincerely, XXXX XXXX ( unhappy with CitiBaks ethical practices ).

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to file a complaint against Experian, XXXX, and XXXX regarding a XXXX collection account that I wish to dispute. The details of my complaint are as follows : I recently checked my credit report and found that there is a collection account from XXXX on my credit report. However, I believe this collection account is inaccurate and should be removed from my credit report. I have attempted to dispute the account with all three credit bureaus, but have not received any resolution to my satisfaction. 

I believe that this inaccurate reporting is damaging my credit score and hindering my ability to obtain credit and other financial services. I request that the credit bureaus conduct a thorough investigation into this matter and remove the erroneous collection account from my credit report. 

I urge the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that the credit bureaus are accurately reporting consumer credit information. Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I have a XXXX XXXX XXXX card. I make my payments timely every month. This month I sent a payment in the amount of {$10000.00} on XX/XX//23. The payment was due on XX/XX//23. My bank records indicate the payment was received by XXXX XXXX XX/XX/23. They have charged interest and a late fee and advised that I need to file a dispute when I called them. I also sent a proactive payment of {$2500.00} on XXXX/XXXX/23. This amount was not due, but I typically pay off my cards early to avoid interest fees. My bank records indicate that payment was received by XXXXComenity on XXXX/XXXX/23. They have not posted either payment to my account. Every month I have an issue with the timely posting of my payments with this credit card only. I always pay weeks in advance as my credit score will demonstrate, I pay my bills and I pay them timely. It almost feels like there is an unethical practice of holding back payments to assess additional fees ( interest, late payments ) by this company. 

Please assist as {$12000.00} is a large sum of money for me. The service at this credit card company has consistently been appalling. Every month this year, I have had to complain to them. I called in XXXX because I was concerned, they had not posted my payment and my bank indicated it was received by XXXXComenity two weeks prior. They finally posted the payment and did not charge fees. I called in XXXX because it looked like a flight I purchased was double charged to my account-they told me I need to file a dispute. It was clear I would not pay for the same flight twice! Luckily the airline handled it for me. This month, I have this issue. I do plan to close this account once this is resolved. There are too many other credit card companies that offer similar rewards to have to deal with this stress on a monthly basis.
