Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, 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 Experian has neither corrected nor removed disputed 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 Experian 's inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Company: CarMax, Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to formally submit a complaint regarding Carmax Auto Finance handling of a charged-off account ( Account XXXX XXXX  ). This account reflects a charge-off amount of {$26000.00}, which has been reported as income to the IRS, according to IRS Publication 4681. However, Carmax Auto Finance has failed to issue a Form 1099-C to me, as required in cases of discharged debt that is no longer being collected. 

Carmax Auto Finance asserts that they are still collecting on this charged-off debt, which conflicts with their reporting to the IRS. If the company is actively collecting on the account, it can not rightfully classify it as a charge-off and report it as taxable income to the IRS. 

Furthermore, Carmax Auto Finance is in apparent violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), under USC Code 1681. They continue to report this charge-off month after month on my credit report, despite their claim of actively collecting the debt. This raises concerns about their accuracy in both IRS reporting and compliance with credit reporting standards. 

I am requesting the following actions : Immediate Removal of Charge-Off Reporting : If Carmax Auto Finance is actively collecting on this account, it should no longer be reported as a charge-off to either credit bureaus or the IRS. 

Investigation of Potential Fraudulent Practices : I believe Carmax Auto Finance actionsreporting this debt to the IRS while still attempting collectionmay constitute fraud under Publication 4681 guidelines. 

Clear Documentation or Issuance of 1099-C : If Carmax Auto Finance does indeed consider this debt discharged, they must issue a Form 1099-C promptly to reflect it correctly.

Additionally, I am contacting the IRS regarding this matter to request a thorough investigation into Carmax Auto Finance practices of potentially misrepresenting discharged debts as ongoing charge-offs while also declaring them as income to the IRS. 

I urge the CFPB to escalate this matter for immediate review to ensure Carmax Auto Finance complies with all applicable laws and regulations. Thank you for your prompt attention to this serious issue. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year>

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally dispute the accuracy of the reporting of a charge-off on my credit report. Upon reviewing my credit file, I noticed that the account listed under XXXX with account number XXXX opened on XX/XX/year>XXXX  still shows a balance. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), information reported to the credit bureaus must be accurate and verifiable. 
As you are aware, once an account is charged off, the creditor should not continue reporting a balance unless the balance has been paid in full or settled. The continued reporting of this charge-off with an outstanding balance is misleading and violates my rights under the FCRA. 
Please be advised of the following : 1. Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : Under Section 609 of the FCRA, I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that is inaccurate or incomplete. Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) of the FCRA also mandates that credit bureaus investigate disputed information and correct or remove any inaccuracies within 30 days. 
2. Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : If this account is being managed by a collection agency, please ensure that they are also in compliance with the FDCPA, which prohibits misleading or false representations regarding the amount or legal status of a debt. 
I am requesting that you investigate this charge-off, correct the balance reported, and provide me with documentation verifying the accuracy of this charge-off. If the creditor is unable to substantiate the balance or the charge-off status, I request that the balance be removed from my credit report entirely. 
Please send me written confirmation that this dispute is being investigated, and that the necessary corrections will be made in accordance with the law. 
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.
