Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

Complaint narrative:
I signed up for the optional loss and damage liability waiver which covers damage due to natural disasters. I called because my lease ( a XXXX XXXX was damaged due to a power surge ) from a severe storm. It's clearly covered in the contract but when I called I was told that I needed to bring it to a local company to have it examined and get an estimate for repairs. In my contract it doesn't state anywhere that I don't have to bring my items for estimates ( which will cost money ). My husband is an it professional and does know how to tell when a XXXX XXXX is bad as well. I offered to send the item to them to evaluate because you can't take pictures of a power surge but they said that would count as a return. So it was a lot of run around :

On XX/XX/XXXX you received my dispute regarding some transactions and late payments that you and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX furnished to my consumer report and when I disputed these exclusions using the FCRA I received a response from you stating that the account was verified!!! 

I am not sure why you responded with Verified as I did not ask for verification of anything! The law clearly states that ; ( 2 ) Exclusions.Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report ; how can you validate a dispute regarding information that is excluded from the consumer report? The law says transactions are not apart of my consumer! So how can you validate a late payment?

Further more lets take a look at 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.

I am requesting all information pursuant Rule 1002 on 15 USC 1666b and the procedure that was used to authenticate accuracy ; What reasonable procedure that you have adopted designed to ensure that each peridioc statement including information required by section 1637b was mailed or delivered to the consum
er not later than 21 days before the payment due date.The only way for you to validate a latepayment is to ensure that 15 USC 1666b was done in compliance METRO2 compliance and FCRA compliance!! to the specifications of the law 15 USC 1666b! Further more this process must be certified by an agent that the information is accurate.We are requesting the Certification of accuracy and the agent/s that were involved in the certification process, that certified that the information is complete and accurate.Failure to provide this information clearly admits that proper steps and certification was not done in compliance with the law 15 USC 1666b , and you have fraudulently verified an account without a reasonable procedure as required by law.

" I am addressing the issue with regarding the noncompliance. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not, that is considered identity theft. 

As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, there exists statutory civil liability for willful noncompliance. This provision stipulates that any person who willfully fails to comply with consumer protection requirements may be liable to the affected consumer for damages, including potential punitive measures and reimbursement of legal costs.

Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I recently closed a mortgage loan with Freedom Mortgage on XX/XX/year> and subsequentially sent them my XXXX payment. Within the last week I received a letter and billing statement from XXXX XXXX XXXX  stating that my mortgage loan had been transferred to them. Since I didn't receive a notice of transfer from Freedom Mortgage, I called them to confirm that my loan had been transferred and was told by three different people within Freedom Mortgage that they still own and service my mortgage and all payments should be sent to Freedom Mortgage. After researching XXXX XXXX XXXX, since I had never heard of them, I call and talked to some one and they informed me that they now owned and service my mortgage and therefore all payments should be sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX. Since I close my loan with Freedom Mortgage a file a fraud complaint on XX/XX/XXXX and was told it would be resolved within 48 hours. I received a message today stating that they are researching the issues and should have their research completed by XX/XX/XXXX ; This response is unacceptable, either they still hold my mortgage or they don't. I have a mortgage payment due on XX/XX/XXXX and if this is not resolved, I am not sure who to send my payment to which could have a negative impact on my credit.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

Issue: Managing an account — Banking errors
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I applied for and was approved for the Unlimited Cash Rewards credit card, which advertises increased cash back benefits for Preferred Rewards members. The requirement for Preferred Rewards eligibility is to have a Bank of America checking account and at least $ XXXX in assets under management. I attempted to open a checking account online and enroll early in Preferred Rewards, but I was informed that I needed to visit a branch for identity verification. 

During my branch visit, I emphasized how important early enrollment in XXXX Rewards was to me, and I was assured it had been activated. Early enrollment is supposed to take effect almost immediately, with a XXXX grace period to deposit the required $ XXXX. I successfully opened the account and deposited the funds by XX/XX/XXXX. 

Since then, Ive called Bank of America three times, and each time Ive been told the same thing : the branch teller who opened my account did not complete the process correctly. Despite spending hours on the phone and being told my issue was escalated, Ive gone through the same XXXX waiting period XXXX times without resolution. 

At this point, it seems my only remaining option is to submit a formal complaint.

The Act ( Title VI of the Consumer Credit Protection Act ) protects information collected by consumer reporting agencies such as credit bureaus, medical information companies and tenant screening services. Information in a consumer report can not be provided to anyone who does not have a purpose specified in the Act. Companies that provide information to consumer reporting agencies also have specific legal obligations, including the duty to investigate disputed information. In addition, users of the information for credit, insurance, or employment purposes must notify the consumer when an adverse action is taken on the basis of such reports. The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act added many provisions to this Act primarily relating to record accuracy and identity theft. The Dodd-Frank Act transferred to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau most of the rulemaking responsibilities added to this Act by the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act and the Credit CARD Act, but the Commission retains all its enforcement authority.
