Consumer complaint received 2025-01-23 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — FHA mortgage
Issue: Closing on a mortgage — Delays with the closing process
Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I agreed to refinance my home with new terms in XX/XX/XXXX. Over the course of the next 5 months, Freedom repeatedly and purposefully delayed the closing process in order to keep me at a higher rate for longer in order for them to collect more money. They repeatedly tried to get me to sign off on a higher interest rate than I originally agreed to. This " issue '' happened multiple times over a 5 month stretch. I had to constantly keep up with them about the status of my loan and if it was even being worked on or fixed. 

As soon as I called them out for what they were doing, the issue was magically fixed. I finally closed on XX/XX/XXXX after initially starting the process on XX/XX/XXXX.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against Navy Federal Credit Union regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds when transactions were authorized, I was charged fees due to lagged posting of charges and credits. This issue aligns with the recent CFPB findings against XXXX XXXX for similar practices, where transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initially available funds. I believe these practices are unfair and request an investigation into my account transactions.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the incorrect reporting of a collection account on my credit report related to the XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX which begins with XXXX. Despite my recent dispute with Experian, I received an email from them within two hours stating that the account will remain on my credit report, indicating that no changes will be made. I believe this action violates both the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and other applicable regulations under U.S. law, and I am seeking your assistance in rectifying this issue. 

Key Issues : XXXX XXXX : The account was charged off as of XX/XX/year>. However, I was not provided with a Form 1099-C or any other official documentation confirming this charge-off. As per 15 U.S.C. 6802 ( Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ), I believe I am entitled to receive proper notification of the charge-off, and failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights. Inaccurate Reporting : Under 15 U.S.C. 1681g of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a complete and accurate report of all information maintained by the credit reporting agencies. The fact that Experian has refused to correct the error, despite my request, suggests that they are not fulfilling their obligations to report accurate information. 

Request for CFPB Action : I respectfully request that the CFPB investigate this matter and require the reporting agencies ( Experian, XXXX, and XXXX ) to rectify this issue by removing or updating the inaccurate collection from my credit report. The failure of these agencies to provide accurate information, and their refusal to correct the error after my dispute, is in direct violation of the law. 
Furthermore, I ask that you investigate whether I have been denied my legal right to receive a Form 1099-C as required under applicable tax laws for the charge-off of this debt.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Transunion for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, Transunion consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Transunion 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Transunion complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation. The accounts i have reported as inaccurate are attached as documents.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Complaint Against Experian for Failing to Conduct Reasonable Investigations I would like to file a complaint against Experian for failing to meet its legal obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Despite my repeated efforts to dispute inaccurate and unverifiable information on my credit report, Experian has not conducted a reasonable investigation or resolved the disputed items. 

Recently, I became aware of the CFPBs lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, relying on unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These allegations perfectly align with my own experience. Experian has ignored or dismissed the evidence I provided, leaving the disputed items on my credit report unchanged.

This ongoing inaction has caused significant harm to my credit standing and financial well-being. Experians failure to address these disputes violates federal law and my rights as a consumer. 

I am requesting immediate corrective action to either remove or amend the inaccurate and unverifiable accounts on my credit report. I trust the CFPB will hold Experian accountable for its actions and ensure compliance with federal regulations. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

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 of 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 disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

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.
