Complaint narrative:
To whom it may concern : This letter is a formal dispute under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( " FCRA '' ) 15 USC 1681 et seq. that you are reporting inaccurate credit information.

After a careful review of my credit report it has come to my attention that there are several inaccurate listings contained in my credit report. The accounts listed below are incorrect and several are outdated. The following accounts need to be investigated immediately to reflect my truthful credit history. If any accounts listed below can not be verified they should be deleted from my credit report as soon as possible.

I was very upset when I discovered that you have included the information I have specified below in my credit profile which has resulted in my credit score being negatively impacted in a major way. As I am sure you are aware, the FCRA requires you to properly investigate any debt dispute. I am sure that the inclusion of this inaccurate information is a mistake on either your or the reporting creditor 's part. 
Because of the mistakes on my credit report, I have been wrongfully denied credit recently which was extremely embarrassing and has negatively impacted my lifestyle. 
My rights were violated under Laws : 15. USC 6802 and 15 USC 1681a, 15 USC 1681b, 15 USC 1681c, 15 USC 1681- I, 15 USC 1681-I ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( 1 ) and 18 USC 1028A.

I was NEVER given the option to opt out from having my information to third parties which include but are not limited to the following entities and I did not receive Form 1099-c from any creditor.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024 I made a payment to include the full balance owed on my XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card. I called to make the payment as I was unable to access my account through the online link provided on my statement email. I paid the full amount owed as per the representative on the phone. On XX/XX/2024 XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX  ) charged a {$42.00} late fee to my account. That notification went to my email spam folder, and I did not see it. They proceeded to charge me late fees and interest until I was notified by my credit reporting agency that I had a card that was 90 days delinquent. The total amount accrued was in the amount of {$220.00}. I had been sent to collections and my credit score was effected by their inability to notify me. They made no attempt to call me by phone and did not send a paper record of the fees or the delinquency. The full amount owed was paid. The amount charged exceeds the new law which was passed that limit late fee charges to {$8.00}. I was not notified that any late fees would be charged to my credit card when my initial payment was made. The initial payment was also made less than 30 days from the billing statement as well.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I leased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/year>. XX/XX/XXXX, I hadn't received any information about my account to make a payment. I contacted GM Financial and they had no record of my lease but had my old car that I'd traded in still under my name. I messaged XXXX XXXX the same day at XXXX and received a response at XXXX that they were passing the issue to management. Over the last 3+ weeks, I've gone back and forth with the dealership about signing a new lease that they said was required because GM Financial rejected the original one due to accounting errors. They have continued to run my credit over and over again for no reason, impacting my score and not all of the credit reporting agencies will remove repeat hard inquiries. I need help with this and to ensure this doesn't happen again. The new leases they sent all had mistakes and changed information until I demanded all of the numbers match the original agreement. This is absolutely not okay. I have less than 30 days before my temp tags expire and I'm not sure I'll have my registration in time.
