Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: CREDIT ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
Credit reports play a significant role in determining an individual 's or business 's creditworthiness. Payment history is a crucial component of credit reports, accounting for a substantial portion of credit scores. On-time payments, late payments, accounts sent to collections, and bankruptcies can all impact credit scores. 

Relevant Laws XXXX. Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Regulates the collection, use, and disclosure of consumer credit information. The FCRA requires credit reporting agencies to ensure the accuracy and fairness of reported information.

2. Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) Protects consumers from abusive, unfair, and deceptive debt collection practices. The FDCPA regulates how debt collectors can communicate with consumers and report information to credit bureaus.

Payment History and Credit Reporting Under the FCRA, credit reporting agencies must : 1. Maintain accurate information Credit bureaus must ensure that reported information, including payment history, is accurate and up-to-date.

2. Investigate disputes If a consumer disputes an error on their credit report, the credit bureau must investigate and correct the error if necessary.

Best Practices 1. Make on-time payments Payment history is a significant factor in determining credit scores. Making on-time payments can help maintain a positive credit history.

2. Monitor credit reports Regularly reviewing credit reports can help identify errors or inaccuracies that may impact credit scores.

3. Dispute errors If errors are found on a credit report, consumers should dispute them with the credit bureau to ensure accurate reporting.

Complaint narrative:
I made card payments to my Capital one cards from a checking account that I had t used to pay on the app before, I entered the number incorrectly and the payments were returned, and they closed my cards with no questions or contact.

Both accounts were in good standing.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be updated. 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. EQUIFAX TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! Update the late payments from my consumer reports

State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Equifaxs repeated failure to address my disputes with care and thoroughness is now more than just negligenceit has become a pattern, XXXX that echoes the same serious concerns the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has already investigated. I will not allow my credit file to remain stained by errors that Equifax has failed to verify or remove, especially when that failure comes at a direct cost to my well-being and future. You have an obligation to treat consumer disputes seriously, and yet it feels as though my concerns have been dismissed entirely. 

According to 15 U.S.C. 1681i, Equifax is legally required to reinvestigate all disputed items within 30 days, and to delete any information that can not be fully and independently verified. That means verifiable proofnot assumptions, not recycled data from unreliable sources. Furthermore, under 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( a ) ( 5 ), any information found to be incomplete, inaccurate, or unverifiable must be corrected or removed entirely. I am demanding immediate corrective action, not another automated response. If you fail to do your job now, I will escalate this matter through every available channel. You are not just mishandling datayou are mishandling lives.

Company: Block, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally report a serious issue involving my Cash App account ( s ), which were wrongfully closed on XXXX separate occasions. Additionally, I was a victim of fraud directly tied to Cash Apps platform, resulting in significant financial harm. 

An unknown individual gained unauthorized access to my linked XXXX bank account and used Cash App to initiate fraudulent withdrawals totaling over {$4500.00}. These unauthorized transactions caused my bank account to become severely overdrawn, ultimately leading to the closure of my XXXX account and outstanding debt that I am now being held responsible for. 

Despite my attempts to report this fraud and resolve the issue, my Cash App account was closed without proper investigation or support. I did not authorize these transactions, and I believe that Cash App failed to provide adequate fraud protection and due process in accordance with federal consumer protection laws. 

This situation has caused me financial hardship, damaged my banking history, and negatively impacted my credit and access to financial services.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.
