Complaint narrative:
Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XX/XX/XXXX- XXXX XXXX, I received 6 XXXX payments from a XXXX XXXX. I verified their identity, via drivers license. Originally XXXX XXXX XXXX failed. They had to call the bank and verify their identity with the bank. Bank of America, verified the XXXX, and release the payment. They made 5 more payments to me after that totaling {$3100.00}. In XXXX XXXX filed a complaint for fraud, more than the 120 days protected by law, and Bank of America, reversed all the XXXX payments out of my account. How do zelle payments greater then 6 months old get reversed when the bank verified them in the first place. If this was truly identity theft, failure to report fraud in a timely manner should be on XXXX, not me or Bank of America.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX and 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 reported in to be removed.

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. 


XXXX 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!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/year> I purchased from XXXX, owner of a Texas based antics dealer called " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' a vintage sofa and we agreed that its XXXXXXXX XXXX fabric was outdated. XXXX offered to help me pick a fabric in XXXX where she then lived. The deal was that I would pay the fabric and she would deliver the sofa to a local upholstery store in charge of redoing the fabric before we would organize the shipping to New York where I reside. 
Based on this agreement, I made the purchase with a PayPal payment for {$410.00} on XX/XX/year>. I had agreed to the uphoslery choice but I was missing the fabric which I was patiently waiting for her to help shop around before I would pay for it. 
She never did : XXXX was simply a scammer who never kept her offer but had no shame nor ethics to stop her from keeping my hard earned money. She dissapeared for weeks before she purely and simply burried the project in the fall of 2023. 
I found myself chasing her to either get my sofa or my funds back. She simply stopped communicating. I have sent XXXX a request to pay me back through PayPal or send me the sofa but she sent me a text asking me not to contact her again before going silent again and for good. 
I called PayPal to ask for a refund and was told that there was a time limit that had expired. I am a hard working woman struggling to pay everything and I clearly do not have {$410.00} to be wasted on a scam. I am solliciting PayPal customer service compassion and understanding to be refunded for these funds. 
Thank you in advance for your valuable help on this.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
