Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This complaint is a follow up on complaint number - ( XXXX ) the company closed the complaint the next day. Stating -This complaint lists someone the company does not recognize as their customer or their customers authorized representative. If they dont recognize me as a customer or representative of the account .. then why is the account on my consumer report? 
It has come to my attention that I was never provided with an opt-out option regarding this account. According to my rights under the law, I hereby demand the immediate removal of this account, not as a matter of policy but as a matter of legal obligation. 
It is important to note that there is no law that mandates the permanent inclusion of an account on a consumer report once the consumer has requested its removal or the removal of their private information. Failure to comply with this request will leave me with no alternative but to pursue legal action against XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
I wish to emphasize that my intention is not to cause financial harm to any party, but rather to seek a fair resolution in line with the law. XXXX XXXX XXXX, with an annual revenue of XXXX XXXX dollars, must be held accountable for its reporting accuracy. As previously mentioned, the absence of a legal requirement for an account to remain on a consumer report post a removal request places the onus on XXXX XXXX XXXX to address this matter promptly and professionally. I hope that we can resolve this situation amicably without resorting to legal action. 
I anticipate your prompt attention to this request and the subsequent removal of the inaccurate account from my consumer report. I kindly request that you acknowledge this communication at your earliest convenience.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
My Wells Fargo account was closed in XXXX XXXX XXXX  ( I did not have a debt when the account was closed ). Prior to my account closing I purchased an item using XXXX which cost {$1100.00} - this item was refunded XX/XX/2023 ... after my Wells Fargo account was closed. At first the refund bounced back to XXXX, but the 2nd time, it went through. XXXX have showed me proof that the funds when through and have given me the resources that would help Wells Fargo locate theses funds ( such as the ACH Reference Number ). Every time I talk to Wells Fargo on the phone they put me on hold or hang up on me. When I go in person, they tell me that they " don't usually accept money to a closed account '' but refuse to look at my ACH Reference Number and refuse to show me proof that the funds were rejected. I have been fighting for months and if I am being honest, it is getting tiring.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: VI

Complaint narrative:
While I deeply appreciate the services and credit extended to me by financial institutions, I find myself perplexed at the inability to secure credit limit increases on my accounts. Notably, all of my accounts are in good standing, with a consistent history of on-time payments. Additionally, I have recently experienced a significant increase in my monthly income, which bolsters my financial stability and capability to manage credit responsibly. Given these positive factors, I am keen to understand the criteria or concerns preventing the approval of credit increases. I believe that a reconsideration based on my improved financial position and impeccable credit management would be both fair and beneficial for both parties.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I have been trying to get there answer to where my money has been placed. I received a {$1100.00} refund XX/XX/2023 from a vendor. Prior to receiving the email I told Paypal employees multiple times that I no longer have the original payment method ( because my XXXX XXXX account was closed ) but I was told that there is nothing that can be done and that my closed account will send me a check for the amount. The refund was issued but I never received a check for it. For months I have been trying to locate the funds but I can't seem to get an answer. Every time I contact Paypal they either say that they dont have the money, or hang up the phone whilst transferring me. This week they closed my Paypal account, which I am guessing is because they don't want me to have access to their customer service in hopes that I " forget '' about my disappeared money.
