Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: Weber & Olcese, PLC
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
This has also been filed with the State of Michigan Attorney General 's office : In XXXX XXXX XXXX I called Weber Olcese to settle a credit card debt. By phone, XXXX XXXX accepted a single payment of {$3900.00} which was debited from my account that day or the next business day and the account was considered closed/settled. I have been traveling for work and unable to access my physical mail, so to my surprise I receive notice from my employer that a garnishment has been issued against me. 

The Request and Writ for Garnishment has the {$3900.00} listed on Item 2 of the Request section, meaning Weber Olcese recognizes the payment made on this account and proceeded with seeking a garnishment anyway. This is a violation of every contract and consumer law I can think of and a petty abuse of the legal system. 

As I am still traveling, I contact Weber Olcese immediately by phone. Whomever I was speaking was ( 1 ) able to locate my account and ( 2 ) noted the payment of {$3900.00} and that the account was marked settled at that time. This person said they would call me back with a resolution. This was Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX. It is now Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX, and Weber Olcese has failed to contact me. All my attempts to contact the seem to be repelled as their automated system now hangs up on me when I enter my phone number or file number -- which it didn't do before. 

I believed attorneys are held to a higher standard and this is not only unethical but I'm quite certain in violation of contract and/or consumer protection laws. I was and am only seeking recompense for the garnishment which they should have never filed. 

Michigan 36th District Court Case XXXX. XXXX. 

So far, my employer has ( mistakenly ) garnished me more than {$1700.00} as a product of Weber Olcese 's erroneous filing. I'm taking up the over-garnishment with my employer, but Weber Olcese should suffer some penalty, the least of which is returning the garnishment they sought AFTER the debt was settled.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
On Wednesday, [ XX/XX/2015 ], I initiated a transfer of funds from my non-Wells Fargo account to my Wells Fargo account. The transfer was approved on Friday, [ exact date ], yet I was still unable to access my money. After several days of waiting, I contacted Wells Fargo on Monday, [ exact date ], only to be told that my funds were placed on holdwithout any notification via email, phone, or online banking. 

This is not the first time Wells Fargo has done this to me. There was no valid reason given for the hold, and I was left completely in the dark for five+ business days, unable to access my own money. This delay put me at risk of missing critical payments, including my rent. 

To make matters worse, when I tried to contact customer service earlier, the wait times were 40-50 minutes. This made it impossible for me to get answers sooner. It is completely unacceptable for a bank to hold a customers money for nearly a week without notification, transparency, or justification. 

I am requesting a formal explanation from Wells Fargo as to why my deposit was held, why I was not notified, and what actions will be taken to prevent this from happening again. I would also like to know if there are any regulatory actions that can be taken to hold Wells Fargo accountable for this lack of transparency.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, AL XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> Subject : Formal Dispute Regarding Inaccurate information on my credit report. 

To Whom It May Concern ; I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information on my credit report that I believe is harming my financial well-being. I am aware of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and request a thorough investigation into these inaccuracies, as required by federal law. 

Recently, The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau filed a lawsuit against Experian for its failure to properly investigate consumer disputes, citing sham investigations and other unlawful practices. These practies, as outlined by the CFPB include : Conducting inadequate investigations that fail to address consumer disputes properly. 
Reinserting previously disputed and inaccurate information without explanation. 
Failing to notify consumers about investigation results effectively. 
These allegations highlight systematic issues that undermine consumer protections and perpetuate the inclusion of inaccurate information on credit reports. I am deeply concerned that my disputes may be mishandled in a similar manner.

State: MN

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 each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them. ''

Complaint narrative:
I reviewed my credit report and noticed several inaccuracies. I sent a letter to EQUIFAX in XXXX to dispute these items. However, it has been more than XXXX  days, and I have not received a response from the credit bureau. This delay is a violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), which requires a response within 30 days.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), if a consumer disputes the accuracy or completeness of any information in their file, the credit reporting agency must, at no cost, conduct a reasonable investigation, verify the disputed information, and update the file or remove inaccurate items within 30 days of receiving the notice of dispute.

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint against the credit bureaus due to their continuous failure to address my dispute letters concerning inaccurate information on my credit report. Despite multiple attempts to resolve this issue through the appropriate channels, the credit bureaus have not acknowledged or investigated my disputes, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Even after multiple submissions, the credit bureaus have failed to provide any response, confirm an investigation, or correct the disputed information. This lack of action clearly violates the FCRA, which requires credit bureaus to investigate disputes and respond within 30 days.
