Company: Experian Information Solutions 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:
My account with ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ) was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported in ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) to be removed. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I made a purchase at XXXX. I returned part of the order to XXXX because I didn't like the items. XXXX sent me a partial refund for those items. 

A few weeks later, I returned more items to XXXX because they were atrocious quality, borderline scam for nearly {$100.00}, cheap XXXX quality. XXXX rejected the return and sent the items back to an address I do not live at, as reflected on my billing address. Now I neither have the items nor my money. Essentially theft. Apple continue to side with XXXX in this matter because I have a partial refund from them on my account from the above situation. Apple is completely in the wrong for siding with XXXX, my money has been taken. I have no product. The refund on my account from that purchase was for different items. They need to refund the charge PARTIALLY and I don't understand why its so difficult for them to figure that out.
