Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint to report inaccurate and unfamiliar information being reported on my credit file. I have identified one or more incorrect information, accounts and inquiries that I do not recognize, did not authorize, and have never had any prior relationship or knowledge of. These items appear to be incorrectly attributed to my profile. I have reached out to the reporting entity to request validation and removal, but have not received sufficient documentation proving that the incorrect information, accounts and inquiries belong to me or were lawfully initiated.

This reporting may constitute a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and possibly the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act regarding the safeguarding and proper use of consumer information.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
These entries remain unverified and questionable. Despite multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies properly investigated and resolved, no meaningful action has been taken. I have submitted all required documentation and followed up repeatedly, yet the errors persist. This ongoing lack of action has caused undue financial hardship and has significantly affected my well-being. The mental and emotional toll of dealing with these unresolved discrepancies has been overwhelming. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report, including the removal of unverifiable or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate steps to verify and rectify these items, as failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law.

Complaint narrative:
Duplicate Reporting Admitted to buy debt that was sold Two tradelines from the same creditor are appearing as separate accounts, each reporting charge-offs and delinquency. This is a direct violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ), which requires prompt and reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information. 
Several tradelines ( including XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX  ) show inconsistent last payment and date updated entries. Please verify the accuracy of these dates and correct them if necessary. No method was done Confusing Remarks and Status Codes : Remarks such as DISP INVG COMPRPT BY GRNTR and CLOSED BY CREDIT GRANTOR do not provide a clear explanation of the account resolution status. I request that these be clarified or removed as misleading. 

XXXX XXXX Overlimit Reporting Error : This account lists a balance of {$2400.00} on a credit limit of {$1000.00} which suggests either erroneous charges or compounding errors. Please provide documentation of how this amount was calculated or correct the error. This implies double entry of the accounting ledger providing accounting to the account to verify. Which has been requested via certified mail.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>XXXX  I loaded XXXX dollars to my PayPal business account. PayPal immediately after loading the money on there asked for me to send in proof of my business and ID. I sent in everything then PayPal permanently restricted my account and said they did not get my ID. I then talked to a representative who sent my ID in for review and they still denied opening my account so I can get my funds released which were for a bill that was detrimental I pay. It caused me to lose out so much more by them holding my funds. I talked to supervisors and had so many reviews still no help for me and was told I have to wait 120 days in case of charge backs. It doesnt make sense to me to hold my funds fir that long and it was not any signs of me doing anything wrong.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I was the victim of an employment scam. Someone claiming to be the hiring manager of XXXX XXXX XXXX hired me and emailed me a check to cover the cost of office equipment. She instructed me to deposit the check and send {$500.00} to a supposed vendor named XXXX XXXX via XXXX, which I did. Later the same day, after suspicious behavior on the hiring manager 's part, I realized I was being scammed. I contacted Chase bank and reported the incident immediately, but they were unable to stop the payment from being processed. As I feared, the check I received bounced, so I filed a claim with Chase to attempt to recover the {$500.00}. I filled out all the necessary forms and provided them with all the information and evidence they asked for. I also filed reports with the FTC and IC3. Unfortunately, Chase denied my claim, stating that they don't have recovery rights when it comes to XXXX transactions. They encouraged me to contact XXXX directly, which I did. After I explained the situation and provided all of the requested information, the representative told me XXXX would contact me within 10 business days to let me know whether they would be able to reimburse me. The waiting period came and went, and no one contacted me, so I called XXXX again. This time, the representative told me there is nothing she could do, and she told me to contact Chase. I reiterated that Chase told me to contact XXXX, but she continued saying that I should contact Chase. That is where I am now. Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated!

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment to be updated. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! Update the late payments from my consumer reports

I have tried multiple times to login to my Equifax account, and every time, it gives me the same page saying " Please give us a call. We can't complete your request at this time. '' And I know I put in the correct login information. I tried calling their customer care team, and all I get is a robot who can't resolve the issue. There is no way to contact an actual person at Equifax. I'm trying to unfreeze my credit so I can make a purchase, but this is preventing me from doing so. I want an actual human representative or agent from Equifax to contact me and resolve this issue so I can unfreeze my credit.
