Complaint narrative:
I am urgently requesting your immediate attention to a critical matter involving identity theft, which has resulted in multiple fraudulent accounts and unauthorized inquiries being added to my credit report without my knowledge or consent.

Despite numerous attempts to resolve this issue directly with the credit reporting agencies, I have not received any satisfactory response or corrective action.

There are 2 fraudulent accounts and 2 unauthorized inquiries that must be removed immediately. These items are causing significant damage to my credit profile, and it is crucial that my credit report reflects only accurate and legitimate information, as mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681.

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against TransUnion regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX  XXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX Nature of Complaint : On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a dispute to TransUnion disputing a late payment reported by XXXX  XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Payment Date Error : My payments for XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX were made on time. I have provided bank statements and payment confirmation receipts which clearly show that the payment was processed before the due date, but the creditor erroneously marked it as late. 
Technical System Failure : Upon reviewing my account activity, I identified that there was a technical issue with XXXX  XXXX 's payment processing system during that period. This error delayed the application of my payment, though it was sent on time, as confirmed by the confirmation number I received after submitting the payment. 
Clerical Mistake by the Creditor : In addition, it seems that XXXX XXXX applied my payments to the wrong account, causing a delay in crediting my account on time. I have documentation showing that this mistake was recognized internally by XXXX XXXX  customer service. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, TransUnion has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and TILA, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, I lost my job because of COVID-19 crisis and i faced significant financial hardship. 

Then it became very difficult for me to pay the credit cards on time because I had to buy food and housing to survive, so I contacted the creditor Wells Fargo to request some time to be able to pay the cards due to the crisis we were experiencing, the creditor told me that there was no problem but, they still reported in my history that I did not pay on time, violating the CARES Act by covid-19, I contacted them again and they told me that they could not do anything that it was going to stay that way, forgetting all the aid that the government in power had provided, affecting my credit history. 

despite this request and the compliance with the CARES Act, Wells Fargo Bank reported those payments as late on my credit report. 

All those requests were made by telephone calls. 

I kindly request that the CFPB investigate this matter, as I believe Wells Fargo Bank has failed to comply with the CARES Act provisions and is unfairly damaging my credit history. 

It should be noted that as soon as I was able to recover, I fulfilled my obligation to pay the entire debt.
