Complaint narrative:
I have been affected by the issues outlined in the CFPBs lawsuit regarding Zelle. I bank with XXXX XXXX and use Zelle daily for transactions. I have experienced problems with unauthorized or incorrect transfers on Zelle, and when I reported these issues, XXXX XXXX failed to properly investigate or resolve them. I was left without the money I lost which in total is close to {$800.00} and without adequate help from my bank to fix the situation. This has caused me significant financial stress, and I ask that the CFPB take action to address these issues and ensure consumers like me are protected and compensated.

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. I recently experienced a troubling situation where a customer canceled a payment through Zelle after receiving the product, and my financial institution allowed this to happen. Despite providing evidence of the transaction and delivery, my bank reversed the payment and withdrew the funds from my account. I was informed that recovering the lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings suggest that Zelle has not only failed to protect consumers and merchants but has also created an environment where repeat offenders can exploit the system. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety and trust in the platform.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
Equifax has failed to fulfill its legal obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information in my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Equifax, 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 experiences, where Equifax 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 Equifaxs inaction violates Federal Law and my rights as a consumer.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies on my credit report. Despite my submission, Equifax continuously responds within 24 hours stating the account is factual, without providing and evidence of a throughout investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax 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. 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation. These are the accounts I have reported multiple times : XXXX opened on XX/XX/year> for the amount of {$3100.00} and high balance of {$17000.00} and XXXX XXXX opened on XX/XX/year>.
