Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelles handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was infeasible. The CFPBs findings indicated that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeated offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumers safety.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding closed collections accounts that continues to appear on my credit report. The details of my complaint are attached to this letter on the next page. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I believe that the continued reporting of these closed collections accounts are inaccurate and unjustly affecting my credit score and financial standing. This has had a great impact on my life in trying to move forward and better my family as a military dependent. Despite my efforts to resolve this issue with the credit bureau and the collection agencies, the accounts remain on my credit report. 
Enclosed with this letter are copies of my identification, a copy of my credit report highlighting the closed collections account, and any correspondence related to my dispute with the credit bureau and the collection agency. 
I request that the CFPB investigate this matter and assist in having the closed collections accounts removed from my credit report.

I'm wanted to express my concern regarding Zelle 's dispute handlings. With the recent law suits highlighting issues with the financial platform, I would like would to express how un happy I am with my financial institution and Zelle not properly investigating my disputed transaction. They informed me that removing lost funds was not going to happen because of Zelle 's policy, which did not protect the consumers against offenders that exploit the system. The lack of transparency and accountability is an outrage and hazardous to consumers.

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed

Complaint narrative:
I want to share my concerns about how Zelle handles disputes, especially after the recent CFPB lawsuit that pointed out major problems with the platform. I've used Zelle many times and reported issues, but my bank and Zelle didn't look into my claims properly. They told me it was impossible to recover the {$400.00} I lost and that they couldn't track these transactions. The CFPB 's findings show that Zelle hasn't just failed to protect users but has also allowed repeat offenders to take advantage, leaving people like me vulnerable to scams.

Company: National Credit Systems,Inc.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I sent a letter to National Credit System requesting debt validation as required under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 USC 1692g. To date, I have not received any response to my written request. 

On XX/XX/year>, I followed up via their online portal, submitting a message to request validation of the debt and to reiterate my concerns. I also made a phone call to their customer service line on the same day to discuss the matter. However, I did not receive any response to my online portal message, and during the phone call, the representative became aggressive and verbally abusive when I attempted to explain the situation.

National Credit System has failed to provide adequate validation of the debt or respond to my written and digital inquiries, despite my repeated efforts to resolve this matter. The lack of response and unprofessional behavior violates my rights under the FDCPA, and I believe their actions have caused undue stress and hardship.
