Complaint narrative:
I HAVE NEW UPDATED INFORMATION!!!!!!! I am XXXX XXXX and I'm submitting this complaint myself and THERE IS NO THIRD PARTY INVOLVED. IF EQUIFAX NEEDS MY AUTHORIZATION TO PROCEED, THEN EQUIFAX HAVE MY AUTHORIZATION TO PROCEED WITH THIS COMPLAINT. I, XXXX XXXX, consumer, natural person, and original creditor of an open-end credit plan, filed a complaint about EQUIFAX on XX/XX/2022. In your CFPB response to complaint XXXX and XXXX, you stated that you needed more time to investigate these violations that have taken place. This is very confusing to me because, had a reasonable investigation taken place, you should have on file the items you say was verified and the items I requested in my previous letter. Due to this information not being presented and you needing more time to investigate, it is my belief that you disregarded my right to privacy pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) with your unfair reporting of this erroneous information without first consulting with me, the consumer in which the report relates. You have no proof that this transaction even took place. You have not insured that you exercised your grave responsibility to be impartial by infringing upon my rights to privacy by having a conversation about me to a third party and parroting the information given to you by this third party without my written instruction to do so. I am demanding that this item be removed as soon as possible. Pursuan to 15 USC 1681 ( b ), you didn't meet the needs of commerce because this was not fair and equitable to me regarding confidentiality, accuracy, and proper utilization of this information. As a consumer reporting agency, as defined under 15 USC 1681 ( f ), assembling consumer credit information for monetary fees for the purpose of furnishing consumer reports to third parties, it is your duty to adopt reasonable procedures for meeting the needs of commerce. Unfair credit reporting undermines the public confidence which congress has made clear, is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. Pursuant to 15 USC 1681a ( d ) 2, a consumer report should not include any of the following : ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report ; ( B ) any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device. As defined by congress in 15 USC 1602 ( L ), the term credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining money, property, labor, or services. A transaction was authorized by my credit card. Anytime my social security card, the real credit card, is used, that account shall be excluded from my consumer report.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
We closed on our property around XX/XX/XXXX, and our total monthly payment has been {$1200.00} with {$170.00} of that being held within the escrow account for property taxes and insurance. 

When I called the bank, they informed me that we are currently - {$6900.00} on our escrow account because the amount withheld only covered part of the taxes for the year. It's obvious no one else at the bank checked the amount needed to make sure that the whole years taxes were being accounted for in the escrow payment during the originations process. I've already filed numerous complaints with the bank about the loan during origination, and now a year later we're still dealing with this nonsense. The total payment will be raised to {$2100.00} on XX/XX/XXXX with {$560.00} of that going to escrow, and another {$580.00} to deal with their XXXX up. 

As of right now, all they're willing to do is make us pay the amount we're behind immediately, or benevolently let us pay it over 24 months when we had nothing to do with the amount being wrong to begin with. The bank obviously isn't going to do a thing to help us out of the mess they put us in, we need help!

Complaint narrative:
I would like to file a Fair Credit Reporting violations report against this credit bureau. They continue to report a XXXX  XXXX XXXX account on my credit report incorrectly. I brought this to there attention and up to this date they have not deleted it from my credit report of fixed the matter. On XX/XX/2021 I requested from this credit bureau there method of verification as it pertains to this account as this is my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Seven months have passed since I made that request and that method of verification has not been sent to me as yet. I am enclosing a copy of the letter that I sent them asking for such a request and a receipt from the post office showing that they got the request. The Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states that a credit bureau has 15 days after they have received a request from a consumer for there method of verification for them to provide it to the consumer.

Seven months have passed and I have not gotten the method of verification and this is a clear Fair Credit Reporting Act violation for which I can seek damages for in the court of law. The Fair Credit reporting Act states that if the credit bureau is unable to furnish the item requested then this account should be deleted from my credit report. 
I am therefore asking you to delete XXXX  XXXX XXXX from my account due to the continued reporting of incorrect information on my credit report and for not providing me with your method of verification which is a Fair Credit Reporting Act violations. Kindly delete XXXX  XXXX XXXX from my account immediately please.

Complaint narrative:
I was texted on XX/XX/2021 from a phone number stating that he was the CEO of the company that I work for and required me to an urgent task. He asked me to get XXXX gift card in XXXX, XXXX, or XXXX for the amount of XXXX {$500.00}. Only XXXX gift card of {$500.00} could be purchased initially in the first XXXX Pharmacy store. I had to get XXXX {$100.00} in the same store. Then, he asked to send him the code directly. After XXXX purchase of gift card totaling {$1000.00}, he asked me to go back to the store to get XXXX {$500.00}. I was only able to get XXXX {$500.00} gift card in the same store. 
So, he asked me to go to another XXXX store to the remaining {$500.00} gift card. I went to the XXXX XXXX store and was able to get {$500.00} gift card. Now, it was totaling to {$2000.00} of gift cards. After the completion of the purchase, he asked me to get more of XXXX {$500.00} in that second XXXX store. I went back, but the sale agent informed me that I can only purchase XXXX timer per store. I went to the XXXX XXXX store to get the XXXX {$500.00} gift card, but the sale agent printed the receipt that it only allowed {$2000.00} gift card purchase per day. So, then I went to XXXX store to get XXXX {$500.00}. When I was there, I was asked to get XXXX {$500.00} instead of XXXX {$500.00}. So, I purchased the XXXX {$100.00}. Each time after the purchase, he always asked to send him the gift card code directly. I did that each time. I had some doubt in XXXX that it was the CEO of the company and called him. However, he told me that he is in a conference call right now and will call me back in XXXX min. I also told him my concern over the text that this is really him. He told not to worry that this is him, XXXX XXXX. After I sent him all the code of XXXX gift cards, he told me again that XXXX cards didn't work. So, I finally texted my coworker XXXX and asked him whether the phone number of the person texting me is XXXX 's number. He told me that it is not what he saved in his phone book. So, I finally realized that I was scammed and stolen from the person texted me.

Complaint narrative:
I initially tried to access my TransUnion credit report on XX/XX/22 at XXXX. The website, service.TransUnion.com would not allow me access to my credit report. I had attempted to may times. I waited until XX/XX/22 at XXXX XXXX to attempt to access it again. I received a confirmation code thru my email, it opened my TransUnion account, however I received a message, cant complete my request. Ive had several issues with TransUnion, they continually stop the ability for the consumer to view potentially fraudulent debt charges that TransUnion posts on credit reports. This has happened to me. 
Then, the consumer cant dispute the fraud charges. TransUnion should be confirming specific debt claims actually belong to the persons credit report they ruin. Its very difficult to reverse the negative information and dispute it.

Complaint narrative:
Im sure you receive complaints all the time an dive even issued a couple regarding PayPal.. I wonder when you XXXX XXXX  will ever actually treat us as your boss and do something. Paypal blatant violates the electronic funds transfer act on a daily basis and gets away with it. They are not a banking institution, therefore they do not have a f-ing right to act as an authority regarding business transactions or a mediator who decides if a business is in good practice. They do. Not have a right to hold onto money for any amount of time let alone 2 weeks. It only takes them two seconds to collect it. They cant do this, you know it but you XXXX do nothing. Maybe a lawsuit against oyu for basically defrauding the tax payer which is what your doing by taking our money while misrepresenting yourselves as actually providing a service. Paypal have no XXXX right to hold my money until they determine I deserve it. They are not a back or an authority and if I have to sue you to do your job I will do that. Do your XXXX job and actually earn your pay oyu XXXX XXXX
