Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
This is my final notice regarding your ongoing noncompliance with federal credit reporting laws. I previously disputed the accuracy and legitimacy of several items on my credit report, yet your agency has failed to act in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

Your violations include : Failure to validate the debt as required under 15 USC 1692g ( Section 809 ( b ) ).

Continuing communication after a certified cease-and-desist request, violating 15 USC 1692c ( Section 805 ( c ) ).

Harassment under 15 USC 1692d ( Section 806 ).

Recently, I received notice that your investigation was complete, but the disputed accounts remain on my credit report. These accounts are not only inaccurate but were never authorized by me. No valid contract exists, and I have not provided any written consent for the reporting of these accounts, as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681b.

Complaint narrative:
I am reaching out to formally express my concerns regarding zelles way of handling disputes particularly in regard to the recent lawsuit bringing up issues with the platform. Dispute using Zelle quite frequently and reporting all my discrepancies, my financial institution and zelle have failed to investigate my claims. I was told that recovering lost funds is impossible and tracking my transactions was not feasible. The cfpc has posted recent findings that not zelle has not only not protected consumers such as myself but they have also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving us users vulnerable to scams. I personally feel the lack of accountability and transparency is very unacceptable and raises serious concern about customer safety.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to for a complaint against navy Federal credit union regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds When transactions were authorized, I was charged fees due to lagged postings of charges and credits. This issue aligns with the recent CFPB findings against Navy Federal for similar practices, where transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initially available funds. I believe these practices are unfair and request an investigation into my account transactions.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against XXXX, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where XXXX has neither corrected nor removeddisputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as XXXX 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Company: Block, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Date XX/XX/year> XXXX XXXX  XXXX  XXXX I tried to withdrawal {$400.00} and only received {$80.00}. When I called XXXX  XXXX  support they instructed me to dispute the transaction. After doing so XXXX times, they were all denied because the ATM records state no errors occurred during my transaction. Clearly the investigation was not taken seriously because my first dispute was denied before the ATM was serviced. The last dispute I was assured they would escalate to investigate further but ended up right back at the start with little to no progress. Each dispute claims the full amount of funds was dispursed and no further action will be taken. The ATM clearly was not serviced and balanced correctly, and I couldn't get a hold of the " third party '' who is responsible for maintaining the ATM, but I suspect they might of just taken the money that should of dispursed on my transaction?

Complaint narrative:
I am refiling my complaint to TRANSUNION regarding the unresolved fraudulent accounts still appearing on my credit report. Despite multiple dispute letters and the attached FTC Identity Theft Report ( Report Number : XXXX ), these inaccuracies remain uncorrected. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ), you are required to conduct a reasonable investigation and correct inaccurate or incomplete information within 30 days of receiving a dispute. To date, this obligation has not been fulfilled, and your inaction continues to harm my reputation and financial standing. I request the immediate removal of the fraudulent accounts listed in my prior disputes, as they violate my rights under the FCRA. 
Additionally, I ask that you provide a detailed explanation if you determine the items are accurate. Please note that failure to resolve this matter will compel me to escalate my complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and pursue legal remedies. Thank you for your urgent attention to this issue.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

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 account listed without my expressed written consent.

On XX/XX/year> @ XXXXXX/XX/XXXX I went to the gas station to get gas from a XX/XX/XXXXand I used my debit card at the pump .I noticed the gas did not come out so I went into the store to address the store manager about the pump not working.

I See that I am getting the run around with both. 
I needed gas and I got no gas but all of the funds on my card was placed on hold through a pending transaction .I am frustrated. I don't have gas in my car and my funds to get gas was placed on hold. There was nothing at the gas station pump saying this is a practice and it was done without my consent .I asked the gas station manager to return my funds and he said its nothing he can do about this and chime said the same thing .I just started work on XX/XX/year> and I wont be able it to make to work if I have no gas in my car. And both parties, the gas station or chime bank do not have practices in place to correct this issue to people like myself.
