Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am requesting a goodwill adjustment for several late payments that Wells Fargo reported on my credit file. I have submitted this request multiple times directly to Wells Fargo, but it has been denied, despite my consistent effort to maintain good standing. 

At the time of the missed payments, I submitted my payments through my Wells Fargo account, and I had no indication that they failed to process. I believed they had gone through successfully. I only became aware of the issue after the due dates had passed. The account has since been brought current and has remained in good standing. 

I understand that Wells Fargo claims the reporting is accurate under the FCRA, but I respectfully ask for assistance in having these late marks removed as a goodwill gesture. These marks do not reflect my true payment intent or financial responsibility, and they are having a significant negative effect on my credit history and financial progress. 

Thank you for reviewing my situation.

Complaint narrative:
Under the FDCPA and FCRA, verification is not just a name matchit is a sworn affidavit or certified statement of truth. Per 15 U.S.C. 1681n, your continued reporting without proper verification is willful noncompliance.

I demand proof of delivery of the initial dunning letter within 14 days of placing this account on my credit report, including a certified mail tracking number. If you can not provide this, you must delete this tradeline immediately and cease all collection activity, including reporting. 

I never had an account with XXXX XXXX, and you are neither the original creditor nor a valid assignee. Debt buyers are not creditors under the law.

This account is still within the federal debt validation window, per 1006.34. Failure to comply will result in further action to seek justice for the harm caused.

Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My husband and I requested a forebearance for our home loan during our loan term. We tried to resume payments and had to submit an application to be reviewed within 30 days an updated. We provided this information for Freedom Mortgage OVER AND OVER AND OVER again. When following up, there was no record of the information and then suddenly it was updated, but it was beyond 30 days old so it had to be done again. We repeated this for SIX months and were told NOT to make payments. Then, we were told that we had to move to another type of plan because of the outstanding balance were we NEEDED to make a payment, but could NOT make one because it was in pre-foreclosure. We ended up having to roll the payments to the end of the loan to setlle the account after HOURS of wasted time on the phone, preparing and sending documetns. I finally got to this point when I called and asked if this was just a gimmick to take my home. You will note I have owned several properties and never had a single late or any issues at all. This cost us {$500000.00}. When we closed on our home at the time of sell, we had paid {$500000.00} for a home we paid {$450.00} for. I was reassured there would be no negative impact to my credit. Now, I am trying to purchase a home and I can NOT because there is a late payment reported in XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>. It is unbelievable that there is a late in XX/XX/year> because Freedom Mortgage scheduled our documents to be notarized for our new OUTRAGEOUS loan in THE MONTH OF XX/XX/year>.

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.

This includes the prompt correction of outdated or incorrect information.

Complaint narrative:
Im reaching out because Ive discovered inaccurate information on my credit report that absolutely should not be there, and I need it addressed immediately.

Let me be blunt : the information in question is either flat-out wrong, misleading, or completely unauthorizedand its presence on my report is doing real harm. Whether its a fraudulent inquiry, wrong personal data, or a misreported account, its not only unacceptable but a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires that all items on a credit report be 100 % accurate, verifiable, and reported with a legally permissible purpose.

I didnt authorize this. I didnt approve it. I didnt even know about it until I pulled my report. And now Im stuck cleaning up someone elses mistakeor worse, their fraud. I take my credit and financial identity very seriously, and I will not allow inaccurate or unauthorized information to sit on my record one day longer than necessary.
