I am writing to formally dispute several inquiries on my credit reports that were not authorized by me and remain unverifiable.

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Incorrect and Inconsistent Reporting Between Experian and Equifax Dear CFPB, Im reaching out because theres inaccurate and inconsistent information being reported on my credit by both Experian and Equifax for the same account ( partial account number XXXXXXXX XXXX ). 

The two credit bureaus are reporting completely different details for the same account. For example, the original balance, credit limit, last payment date, and even the date opened dont match. Heres a quick summary of what Im seeing Information Experian Equifax Current Balance {$2400.00} {$2400.00} Original Balance {$0.00} {$2000.00} Credit Limit {$2000.00} {$0.00} Last Payment Date XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Date Opened XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX Date Reported XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX These kinds of differences show that at least one bureau is reporting wrong information. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), both bureaus are supposed to ensure maximum possible accuracy ( 1681e ( b ) ) and are required to properly reinvestigate any dispute within 30 days ( 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ). 

Ive tried to resolve this, but the reports still dont match. Im asking the CFPB to step in and make sure both credit bureaus : 1. Fully reinvestigate the account, 2. Verify the information directly with the creditor, and 3. block and remove anything that cant be verified.

Ive attached both reports showing the discrepancies, along with a copy of my ID and proof of address. 

Thank you for helping make sure my credit file is accurate and compliant with the FCRA.

Company: Chime Financial Inc
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Chimes handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Chime numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Chime 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 Chime has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.
