Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan — Installment loan
Issue: Problem when making payments — 
Company: Paramount GR Holdings, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against XXXX, the company that provided financing for my solar installation. I believe that XXXX engaged in deceptive and unfair practices related to the loan terms and charges, which were not properly disclosed to me. 

Here is a detailed summary of my issue : Hidden Fees : When I signed the financing agreement, I was not clearly informed of certain fees. Specifically, there were upfront charges that ranged from percentage or dollar amount, which I was not made fully aware of before finalizing the loan. These fees were added to the loan principal and significantly increased the total amount I owe, leading to higher interest payments over time. 

Misleading Loan Terms : The terms of the loan were not clearly explained. I was led to believe that the financing would be much more affordable than it turned out to be. I was not given adequate information regarding the full costs, including how the interest rates would apply to the loan over time. This has caused me significant financial strain. 

Lack of Transparency in Financing Options : I was not informed about other potential financing options that may have been more beneficial to me. Instead, I was directed to choose the loan provided by XXXX without being given a full understanding of alternatives. 

Every time they mess up on autopay, they put a late payment on my credit.

State: CA

Complaint narrative:
This complaint serves as a formal demand for compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding the handling of my credit report. I have requested this account listed below to removed from my credit report due to identity theft. This is my several attempt to resolve this matter. The previous letters have come with zero compliance. Your failure to provide verifiable proof and your reliance on generic, non-substantive responses violate federal law and my consumer rights. I will not tolerate these deliberate evasions.

Despite my repeated disputes, your agency has failed to provide legally required documentation proving the validity of the reported information. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), upon receiving a dispute, you are legally required to conduct a meaningful investigation and provide substantive evidence verifying the accuracy of the disputed account. Your boilerplate responses do not meet this legal standard, and your continued negligence constitutes a blatant violation of federal law.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ), you are required to maintain maximum possible accuracy in consumer credit reports. Your continued reporting of unverified and inaccurate information, despite my multiple disputes, demonstrates reckless disregard for the law and my rights.

You have 30 days from the date of this letter to provide the following : 1.Actual verification of the disputed account, including original documentation from the data furnisher proving the validity of the debtnot generic statements from the creditor or data furnisher.

2.A detailed explanation of the investigation conducted, including the specific steps taken to verify the accuracy of the information.

3.The names, contact information, and job titles of the individuals who handled my dispute.

4.A statement confirming removal of any information that can not be fully verified as per 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ). 

Failure to comply will result in immediate legal action. I am fully prepared to escalate this matter to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and my states Attorney General. Additionally, I will explore all legal avenues, including but not limited to, filing a lawsuit for willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which entitles me to statutory damages, punitive damages, attorney fees, and costs.

The account do not belong to me, as they are fraudulent. The banks have agreed to remove this account from my records. Im confused why you still feel theyre reporting accurately. Please see this accounts is fully investigated and VERIFIABLE PROOF IS FORWARED TO ME.

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and Transunion data breach.
