Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: General Motors Financial Company, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. # XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX Date : XX/XX/year> GM Financial / XXXXt XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Subject : Formal Dispute and Demand for Deletion of Inaccurate Reporting Account Paid in Full Account Number ( Partial ) : XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute the reporting of the above-referenced account being furnished by GM Financial XXXX XXXX to the consumer credit reporting agencies. Although this account was paid in full, your company is continuing to report it with a status of XXXX, Closed {$6200.00} XXXX XXXX and as a XXXX, which is materially inaccurate and damaging. 

Legal Grounds for Dispute : 15 U.S.C. 1666b Fair Credit Billing Act ( Application of Payments ) : Payments made were not properly reflected in the account reporting. The account was paid in full, and the balance should reflect {$0.00} without any charge-off notation. If the payment was accepted in full satisfaction of the debt, any charge-off notation is false and misleading. 

15 U.S.C. 1681i Fair Credit Reporting Act ( Reinvestigation Requirement ) : I am requesting a reinvestigation into the accuracy of this account. Under this provision, you are required to correct or delete any information that can not be verified. The status listed is inconsistent with a paid-in-full account and must be corrected or deleted entirely.

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 Duty to Report Accurate Information : Furnishers of credit information are legally obligated to report only accurate and complete data. Reporting a charge-off and a written-off amount after full payment is not only inaccurate but a potential violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. This misreporting negatively affects my creditworthiness and constitutes willful or negligent noncompliance.

Action Requested : Immediately remove any references to charge-off or written off in the account status. 

Update the account to show Paid in Full with a {$0.00} balance, or Delete the account entirely from all consumer credit reports ( Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion ) if you are unable to report it accurately. 

Provide written confirmation of the actions taken. 

This letter serves as a formal dispute. Please complete your investigation within the timeframe required by the FCRA. If this inaccurate reporting is not corrected or deleted, I will escalate the matter by filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and the relevant state attorney general. Legal action may also be considered. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Reference WU transfer : XXXX  XXXX. Again Western Union continues to withhold funds beyond a reasonable amount of time to their financial benefit, even after we pay a " transfer fee '' ( see case : XXXX, same issue ). They try to " blame the receiving bank '', for the delay in receiving the funds, but this is an outright lie ( my bank XXXX corroborated that they know of every incoming transaction and NEVER withhold once it arrives. She showed me their receiving process ). This is a fraudulent activity by Wester Union to gain additional money on top of their fee ( imagine the interest collected by the thousands of transfers done daily and funds withheld for 5+ days!!!! ). I understand a reasonable amount of time ( 24-48 hours ), but this time they have withheld so far 7 days and still will not release funds for another 4 days! ( Transaction initiated XX/XX/XXXX, notification received XX/XX/XXXX that money will arrive by XXXX XX/XX/year>. This equals 10+ days. The last complaint was never resolved. I only received a " cut and paste '' textbook response and the problem continues to persist. This is FRAUD!

This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15. U. S. C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the credit reporting agencys block the information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft, and fraud within four business days of you receiving this complaint.

I do not recognize these accounts, collections and hard inquiries as reported. The aforementioned accounts, collections and hard inquiries appearing on my consumer credit report maintained by you were not opened, made or initiated by me. All of the said accounts, collections and hard inquiries are a result of identity theft, and fraud. I have attached a copy of the FTC identity theft criminal complaint as proof from the XXXX federal trade commission that all of the aforementioned, consumer credit accounts, collections and hard inquiries are in fact a result of identity, theft, and fraud.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute certain negative entries currently listed on my credit report. Despite multiple requests and the submission of all necessary supporting documents, these inaccuracies have not been properly addressed. My repeated follow-ups have been met with little to no action, and the continued presence of these errors has caused significant financial and emotional stress. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the legal right to an accurate and verifiable credit report. I am requesting that you take immediate and thorough steps to investigate and correct these items. Failure to resolve them in a timely manner would constitute a violation of my rights under federal law.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I was called today by Bank of America. I was told to confirm my Drivers License with XXXX XXXX XXXX its number. I was then told by " XXXX '' that " I was unable to validate you. I then asked why can't you validate me with another number like my social. She said " We don't validate that way. '' I said " You can open the account with my social but we can't validate this conversation because you don't use my social? '' XXXX then said we can't discuss any information about your complaint. Which is confusing because in the same breathe she stated that she can talk about generalities. As a matter of fact, I called XXXX back a few weeks ago to get a status on the account that I asked why I was told that I was hit with a " hard '' pull rather than a " soft pull '' on my credit report. I asked for XXXX supervisor and then asked " why did it take so long for you to respond? I left you two voice messages weeks ago. XXXX then said that " She was on vacation. '' I then asked for her supervisor to return my call. All I am asking for is an approved {$500.00} business credit card from Bank of America. I was hit with a " hard pull '' even though Bank of America employees lied to me stating that it would be a " soft pull. '' I am still waiting for my Bank of America check cards that have not arrived form when we opened the account back in XXXX. I am still waiting for answers after XXXX stated " that we will probably respond by letter, since we can't verify you. '' Does the United States Government know what Bank of America is doing with all of our data? I am totally shocked at the way I have been treated by BOA. I am still awaiting XXXX managers phone call to me after I requested it today when XXXX called me and stated that " I wasn't able to verify me. '' This sounds like a scapegoat to throw away my complaint and pretend that she couldn't verify me. According to other banks I should have been approved by Bank of America for at least a {$500.00} dollar business credit card since I got a " hard pull '' on my personal and business credit report but was still denied.

Complaint narrative:
Im beyond frustrated with the continued presence of false, damaging information on my TransUnion credit report. These aren't minor oversights or accidental typosthey are substantial and harmful misrepresentations that continue to sabotage my financial progress and personal stability. Ive gone through the formal dispute process in good faith, hoping the issues would be corrected responsibly, only to be met with silence and negligence. The failure to properly investigate and resolve these errors has left me feeling ignored, disrespected, and financially punished for mistakes I did not make. 

As a consumer, I have a legal right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act to a credit file that is completely accurate and substantiated by real, verifiable documentation. It is not my job to chase down proofIve done my part. If TransUnion can not produce direct and unquestionable evidence to support the continued reporting of these entries, then it is obligated by federal law to delete them immediately. This isnt a requestits a demand for compliance. If you continue to ignore my concerns, I will treat this as a willful violation of my rights and take further action to hold you accountable. My creditworthiness is not something I take lightly, and you should not either.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Equifaxs repeated failure to address my disputes with care and thoroughness is now more than just negligenceit has become a pattern, one 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: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
Ive recently discovered several late payment notations on my credit report that are completely false, and I want to make it clear that I will not tolerate these inaccuracies being used to misjudge my financial character. These harmful entries are dragging down my credit score, affecting my access to opportunities, and putting unnecessary strain on my mental and emotional health. Some of these alleged late payments were in fact made on time, while others may stem from clerical mistakes or internal processing delays that were never communicated to me.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that every piece of data on a consumer report be factually accurate and verifiable by original documentation. That means if these late payment entries can not be backed up with real, dated billing statements or signed agreements, they should not be reported at all. I am demanding that these entries be immediately corrected or removed, depending on what the documentation proves. If the credit reporting agencies or furnishers continue to ignore this matter, I will interpret that as a willful and deliberate violation of federal lawand respond accordingly. I deserve better, and I will fight until this is made right.
