State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  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 XXXX 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!

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I was denied an apartment rental based on inaccurate information that indicated I had a civil judgment against me. I promptly contacted XXXX owned by XXXX XXXX and Experian who stated they received the information from Experian to correct this issue, providing them with documentation proving that the alleged civil judgment was included in my XXXX  XXXX bankruptcy, which was converted to XXXX  XXXX in XXXX and discharged. However my credit reports from all 3 bureaus confirm that no civil judgment exists on its own however included in the bankruptcy ; only the discharged bankruptcy is listed and they are saying they got this information from Experian. 

XXXX acknowledged receiving this documentation that I also sent to Experian but has since refused to update their records, citing that the incorrect information came from a third-party vendor I can not contact directly called XXXX  and that I could not contact them but also provided me with documentation that this information came from Experian. Despite providing the necessary bankruptcy documents to XXXX and Experian they have failed to make the required updates or inform the apartment complex of the correction.

Given that these companies have had the relevant documentation for 9 days and has not acted to resolve this issue, a fair resolution would be to update my
information immediately to reflect the accurate details and rectify the situation with the apartment complex. This delay is impacting my ability to secure housing, and prompt action is necessary to correct this error.

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.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax Information Services LLC regarding their refusal to provide my credit report despite my compliance with their verification process. This issue has caused significant delays in my ability to secure necessary funding for my business, which has resulted in financial harm.

Background : On [ Date ], I requested a copy of my credit report from Equifax. To verify my identity, I provided my Social Security number and a copy of my government-issued ID, as requested. I submitted these documents via mail to the address provided by Equifax. 

Subsequently, I was informed that my documents were " not legible, '' and despite this, Equifax continued to process my request and provided me with a report up until XX/XX/2024. However, as of XX/XX/2024, I have still not received the complete credit report or my credit score, which is crucial for securing funding for my business. 

Issues : Failure to Provide Credit Report : Despite fulfilling all verification requirements, Equifax has not provided the requested credit report, hindering my ability to obtain necessary funding. 

Legibility Issues : Equifax claims my documents were not legible, yet they processed my request and provided a partial report. This inconsistency raises concerns about their handling of my sensitive information. 

Data Security Concerns : Given Equifaxs known history of data breaches, I am deeply concerned about the security and handling of my personal documents. I suspect that my documents may have been mishandled or misprocessed, further contributing to the delay.

Request : I am requesting immediate action to resolve this issue. Equifax must provide my complete credit report and score without further delay. Additionally, I ask that the CFPB investigate Equifaxs practices regarding the handling of consumer data and document processing.

If this issue is not resolved promptly, I intend to pursue legal action against Equifax for violating my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which has resulted in financial harm to my business. 

I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to your prompt response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally address a serious issue regarding a wrongful levy on my personal checking account [ Account Number : XXXX ] at Bank of America . On [ XX/XX/year> ], my account was improperly levied, resulting in the seizure of {$5300.00}. This action was conducted without proper validation or review of the underlying court order.

Upon reviewing the court order associated with this levy, it is evident that the order pertains to a different individual, not myself. This erroneous action by Bank of America has caused me significant financial distress and inconvenience. The funds in my account are essential for my daily living expenses, and their wrongful seizure has created undue hardship.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this urgent issue.
