Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that

you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

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

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations.

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the inaccurate information on my credit report, which has not been corrected despite my previous attempts to resolve these issues. The continued inaccuracy of my credit report is negatively impacting my credit score and overall financial health.

I am aware that TransUnion has been cited for illegal practices in the handling of credit reporting and consumer disputes, including failure to properly investigate disputes and reporting inaccurate or unverifiable information. I am concerned that my own credit report reflects these same illegal practices, as my disputes have not been resolved in compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

I have submitted previous disputes to address these errors, but they have not been corrected. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct a reasonable investigation of all disputes and correct any inaccurate information. The continued presence of these errors on my credit report indicates a failure to comply with the law and has caused significant harm to my creditworthiness.

I respectfully request that you : Immediately investigate these disputed items. As per the FCRA, you are obligated to conduct a full investigation and resolve any inaccuracies within 30 days.

Provide a resolution or update. Please inform me of your findings and the actions taken regarding the disputed items.

Remove any unverifiable or inaccurate information. If you are unable to verify the disputed information, I request that you promptly remove it from my credit report.

Additionally, I request that you send me a written confirmation once these issues have been corrected, along with an updated copy of my credit report reflecting the changes.

I trust that you will address this matter in a timely and lawful manner. Thank you for your attention to this issue. I look forward to your prompt response.

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

Complaint narrative:
I am respectfully requesting a review of the late payment currently being reported on my credit file as open or unresolved, as I believe this information to be inaccurate and misleading. This reporting is factually inaccurate and materially misleading. The payment in question has either been fully resolved, or I was never late as alleged. The continued reporting of this item as delinquent constitutes a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which mandates consumer reporting agencies to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information furnished. The presence of this inaccurate entry has directly harmed my credit standing, resulting in adverse effects on my credit score and potentially impeding future opportunities related to credit, housing, and employment. Accordingly, I demand a full investigation of this matter, and if the late payment can not be conclusively verified as accurate and timely, it must be immediately corrected or permanently deleted from my credit report.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint because the consumer reporting agency is willfully and negligently violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by continuing to report fraudulent accounts and unauthorized inquiries that resulted from a data breach. Despite my submission of a formal dispute under Section 605B [ 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ] with a sworn affidavit and proof of identity, the agency has failed to block or delete the disputed items within the required four business days. Additionally, the agency has not provided any verifiable proof bearing my signature or electronic signature, as required under Section 604 [ 15 U.S.C. 1681b ], to justify the permissible purpose of these inquiries. These actions violate my consumer rights under federal law.

Issue: Closing your account — Can't close your account
Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I contacted U.S. Bank to request the cancellation of my U.S. Bank Business Triple Cash Rewards Credit Card. A representative assured me that the account would be closed as requested. However, more than a week later, the card still appears as active in my online dashboard, with no confirmation that the account has been officially closed. 
This behavior is consistent with a pattern of failure by U.S. Bank to honor customer requests made through phone or customer service channels, which I have previously experienced. My past attempts to resolve promotional credit disputes ( e.g., CFPB XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX ) were also ignored or stalled until I filed formal complaints. 
U.S. Banks continued failure to process this basic account closure request raises concerns of bad faith delay tactics, possibly to : * Continue reporting to business credit bureaus. 
* Prevent timely promotional reversals. 
* Avoid financial transparency regarding bonus terms and rewards balances. 
I have no remaining balance on the card and have fulfilled all obligations. There is no legal or financial reason for this delay.
