Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This is a formal complaint regarding the improper reinsertion of previously deleted XXXX XXXX XXXX accounts into my Equifax credit file. The following accounts had already been removed and have now been reinserted without compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) : XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Account # XXXX {$0.00} Charge Off Closed on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Account # XXXX {$4700.00} Charge Off Closed on XX/XX/XXXX These reinsertions violate FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ), which requires Equifax to : ( 1 ) Obtain proper certification from the furnisher before reinserting deleted information, and ( 2 ) Provide the consumer with written notice within 5 business days of reinsertion.

I did not receive any certification from the furnisher verifying the accuracy of these accounts, nor did I receive any written notice of the reinsertion. Because these requirements were not met, the reinsertion of these accounts is unlawful.

Additional violations include : FCRA 607 ( b ) : failure to follow reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy. 
FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) : failure to conduct a proper reinvestigation.

FCRA 602 ( a ) : failure to protect the consumer from inaccurate or obsolete information.

I am requesting : Immediate removal of the two XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX accounts listed above. 
A complete reinvestigation with proof of any certification allegedly received from the furnisher. 
Documentation showing any notice that Equifax claims to have sent to me. 
An updated and corrected copy of my credit report. 

If Equifax does not comply, I will escalate this matter to the CFPB, the FTC, and pursue legal remedies available under FCRA 616 and 617. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX Date:XXXX  XXXX XXXX Re : Incomplete Collection Account Reporting-request for Deletion Dear : XXXX  I am writing to dispute the accuracy of a collection account appearing on my credit report. The account shows as a Collection but does not identify the original creditor or the collection agency responsible. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C & 1681i ), all information on my report must be complete and verifiable. Because this account lacks identifying information, it can not be verified and must be deleted from my credit file immediately. Please conduct a reinvestigation and remove this unverifiable collection from my credit report. Send me written confirmation once the deletion is complete. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> XXXX

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Issue: Struggling to pay your loan — Denied request to lower payments
Company: SANTANDER HOLDINGS USA, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I requested a hardship review from XXXX XXXX because I am several months behind and could not afford the {$2700.00} lump-sum payment they demanded. The Care Team stated that my only options were to pay {$2700.00} immediately or surrender the vehicle. 

I asked multiple times for escalation to someone who could review alternatives such as partial reinstatement, a payment arrangement, or any other delinquency options. All of these requests were denied. 

During my final call on XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXX XXXX a Care Team representative named XXXX ( ID XXXX ) disconnected the call after refusing to offer any alternatives. Another representative named XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX approximately around XXXX ( ID XXXX ) also stated that without the {$2700.00} payment, surrender was the only option. 

After this, every time I called back, the phone system either disconnected me or looped me back into the same Care Team, preventing me from reaching any higher-level department or Executive Resolution. I believe I was blocked from receiving a proper hardship review. 

I am requesting CFPB assistance to have XXXX XXXX  conduct an appropriate hardship evaluation and to address the improper handling and refusal to escalate my case.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This reported late payment is the result of a systematic billing error by the company, not a reflection of my excellent payment history. I have always had my payments on autopay and was never late. The company failed to comply with 15 U.S.C. 1666b, as they did not send the required periodic statement at least 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof of this and it has not been provided. This error has caused significant harm to my credit and is unfair, illegal, and incorrect. I demand that this late payment be immediately removed from my consumer report.

The delay in accessing my funds is causing undue inconvenience and is not supported by the contract. I request that you lift this hold immediately and allow full access to my funds. 

Please confirm in writing that this hold has been removed within a reasonable time frame 48 hours. If I do not receive confirmation, I will have no choice but to escalate this matter further. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
