Complaint narrative:
I would like to address the crucial regulations safeguarding consumers under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). These regulations ensure equitable treatment, privacy protection, and accuracy of credit information. Section 602 ( a ) of the FCRA mandates that entities collecting and reporting consumer information must adhere to principles of fairness, neutrality, and privacy, encompassing well-known entities like XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX. As an individual subject to their data collection, I retain the right to safeguard my privacy. Furthermore, Section 6801 reinforces Congress 's intent for financial institutions supplying data to credit agencies to uphold the security of personal information. 

The FCRA also outlines the necessity for written consent prior to the dissemination of consumer information by credit agencies, as delineated in Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ). However, I have not provided written consent to XXXX, TransUnion, or XXXX, contravening this requirement. Moreover, Section 6802 ( b ) ( c ) stipulates that financial institutions must inform consumers of their right to opt out of information sharing, a requirement that has not been fulfilled in my case. 

XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX have reported adverse information about me without obtaining my consent, a violation of Section 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) of the FCRA. Additionally, Section 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) prohibits the dissemination of knowingly inaccurate information, which appears to have occurred in this instance. 

Furthermore, the FCRA mandates that these entities establish robust procedures to ensure compliance with the law, as outlined in Section 1681e. Unfortunately, it appears that XXXX, TransUnion, and XXXX have failed to implement adequate measures, resulting in inaccurate information being included in my credit report. 

Consequently, I am formally requesting that they cease sharing my information, as permitted by 12 CFR 1016.7. Additionally, I demand the immediate removal of all erroneous entries from my credit report. Failure to adhere to these requests may warrant legal action for willful non-compliance with FCRA regulations.

Complaint narrative:
I opened a business bank account with Chase on XX/XX/2024 on behalf of my LLC in XXXX XXXX Wyoming. I transferred everything over from my private client {$230000.00} on XX/XX/2024. My account got flagged twice and the transfer finally went through then the shut down the account XX/XX/2024. I went to the bank in XXXX on the XXXX when I noticed my account was gone. XXXX told me that they wrote me a check and that I would receive it in 10 days. I then called the customer service line and they said the account closure is still pending today XX/XX/2024. The bank said the reason why it was closed was because my name was not on the secretary of state records which is not required by Wyoming law and the whole reason to open a LLC is to protect my money and name from creditors. The banker who opened the account neglected to tell me this so technically this is their fault. If at all someone comes after that money or they take any out for fraud I will file a lawsuit.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

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:
On XX/XX/2024, I called a Citibank services for Home Depot and soke with representative and asked him have they received my settlement and payment for an old account. He stated, " yes '' and I asked him will Citibank report any of this to the credit agencies ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ). I advised him that Citibank is still reporting to the credit agencies that I am delinquent, and I am still past due on my account. I asked the representative for a payoff or settlement letter and report my information to the credit agencies. I also advised the representative that the credit agencies advised me that your company ( Citibank/Home Depot ) is still reporting wrongful information to the credit agency. I requested my information be corrected. He advised me that he would do something is 60 days. I asked him if he could email me a payoff letter and he advised no, and I would have to just wait on that too. I also called Home Depot representatives and they all passed me off to Citibank because they refused to look into my case or provide me with information about my account. In all I called Home Depot and Citibank approximately or close to 12 times just to get help. This is unacceptable.

The account was never closed! The balance was transferred and the account is still active!
