Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, I fell behind in payments and was able to bring my account current in XXXX of XXXX. Due to the inefficiencies and jerking around while trying to do a modification and then being denied, I filed a complaint with the CFPB.

Since the filing of that complaint, I feel I am being harassed byCitizens Bank, in retaliation for filing the complaint. I have NOT received monthly statements in a timely manner, yet have received no less than 7 notices-some dates the same day-that my mortgage is in default. This morning @ XXXX, I was told by XXXX, that she would not take my phone pmt ; I had to mail it. No valid reason was given. After insisting she take the phone payment, she finally did. 
The same thing happened on XX/XX/XXXX, when I called in to make a payment-spoke to a XXXX XXXX XXXX My balance is less than XXXX XXXX and I have made pmts all year.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This is a formal dispute regarding the inaccurate reporting of the LVNV Funding collection account on my credit report. Collection accounts should not reflect monthly payment histories, yet this account is improperly reporting a payment history with " CO '' ( charge-off ) and even " OK '' in XX/XX/XXXX, which is inaccurate and misleading. Once an account is sent to collections, it should be reported solely as a collection account without ongoing delinquencies. Additionally, the " Date Last Active '' is listed as XX/XX/XXXX, a date that is clearly erroneous. Furthermore, no " Date of Last Payment '' is reported, and there is no consistency in reporting across all credit bureaus, as XXXX does not reflect this account at all. This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), as it is your obligation to ensure the accuracy of all reported information. In XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX court held the collection agency accountable for failing to verify accurate information, setting a clear precedent. The inaccuracies in this account, combined with the lack of proper verification, warrant immediate removal. I request that this account be deleted from my credit report due to the reporting errors and failure to adhere to FCRA requirements.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against TransUnion and XXXX for inaccuracies in the reporting of my XXXX XXXX account ( Account # XXXX ). The payment history and other account details on my credit report contain several inconsistencies that violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The payment history for TransUnion reflects consistent 120-day late payments from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, which is impossible given the account was charged off as of XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX reflects payments that transitioned from 120 days late in XX/XX/XXXX to 60 days late in XX/XX/XXXX. This regression of lateness is illogical and inaccurate. The account is marked as " Charged Off as Bad Debt '' as of XX/XX/XXXX, yet TransUnion and XXXX report active delinquency afterward, which contradicts the account being written off. TransUnion lists the " Date Last Active '' as XX/XX/XXXX, while XXXX has XX/XX/XXXX. These dates should be consistent. The " Date of Last Payment '' is recorded as XX/XX/XXXX, which conflicts with the delinquent payment history reported in XXXX. XXXX has no reporting for this account, further highlighting a lack of uniformity across the credit bureaus. These reporting errors are not only misleading but are detrimental to my credit score. Under the FCRA, credit reporting agencies are required to ensure that the information they report is accurate and verifiable. The discrepancies in the payment history, account activity dates, and charge-off status demonstrate a failure to meet this standard.

Complaint narrative:
I previously sent a letter to the Bureaus regarding the inaccuracies and unknown entries on my credit report, but sadly, I haven't received a response even after 30 days. It feels like my concerns are being overlooked, and I'm not being treated fairly. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these issues aren't investigated within 30 days, they should be removed from my credit report without delay. Since that time has passed, I expect these accounts to be updated right away. If this doesn't happen, I may have to consider legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Moreover, my information was compromised in the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which adds to my worries about the safety of my personal data.
