Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
In reviewing my account I noticed that the information that is listed on my credit reports is extremely inaccurate in various fields. While I understand mistakes can happen unfortunately when it comes to financial data and credit reporting this is one industry where mistakes can cost the bearer extreme harm and distress. I request that the correct information be sent to XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX immediately so that they can update their records accordingly : Balance, Past Due, Last Reported Date, Date Last Active, and Date of Last Payment. 

Additionally there are several late payment indicators listed, which make no sense as to the best of my knowledge all payments have been submitted on time. The following reporting periods need to be corrected as paid on time and the late payment indicators removed : XX/XX/scrub>XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year>. It merits mentioning again, although I understand mistakes can happen the fact remains this misreporting of information to my credit report has caused me serious harm and also constitutes a violation of federal law, specifically 15 USC 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 2 ) to name just ONE of the violations. 

This dispute will serve as notice of the inaccurate information that is on my credit reports for this account as well as the opportunity for your company to correct them without any additional action/enforcement on my behalf. The account information on the account in question is listed below : Truist Bank : Account # XXXX I have attached a copy of my ID and billing statement for verification purposes.

While I understand mistakes can happen unfortunately when it comes to financial data and credit reporting this is one industry where mistakes can cost the bearer extreme harm and distress. I request that the account be deleted from my file. 

Additionally this is a business credit card which means it was opened using an EIN number rather than a consumer 's SSN, placing it on a file a willful disregard for the law rather than simply negligence. It merits mentioning again, although I understand mistakes can happen the fact remains this misreporting of information to my credit report has caused me serious harm and also constitutes a violation of federal law, specifically 15 USC 1681e ( b ) to name just ONE of the violations.

I called them and was advised that the emails I was sent ( I have copies ) were fake. this has caused much XXXX  and frustration on my part, wondering if in fact a credit reporting bureau that has all my financial information, has itself been the victim of identity theft causing me to log in to, and give my information to a phishing scheme. 
I have yet to be able to log in to my account by using the ID and password I originally opened the account with. 
I would like a response to the above concerns, and method to discover if I have indeed been scammed by a credit reporting bureau.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: PA

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 each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX  account [ XXXX ]. 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.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the improper reinsertion of a XXXX XXXX XXXX account ( Account Number XXXX ) that was previously deleted from my credit report. On XX/XX/XXXX, Equifax confirmed that the account had been removed following my dispute. However, when I reviewed my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX, I found that the account had been reinserted without the necessary written notification. This action violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ), which requires written notice within five business days of reinsertion, and 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( C ), which mandates substantiation with new and verifiable information. Since this account was previously removed due to being inaccurate or unverifiable, I question the legitimacy of any new evidence supporting its reinsertion. Additionally, this action fails to comply with 15 USC 1681e ( b ), which obligates consumer reporting agencies to ensure accurate and fair reporting practices. I request that this account be removed immediately, that you provide any evidence used to justify its reinsertion, and that you send me written confirmation of its deletion along with an updated copy of my credit report.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
On 2 occasions Chase Bank allowed fraudulent charges from my account. I protested the charges sent from an unknown person / company via an XXXX account. I have never even heard of what an XXXX account was/ is as I told the officer at Chase Bank. On my first attempt approx XX/XX/year> to challenge these charges, Chase denied my challenge and said I gave this individual permission. On my second attempt approx XX/XX/year>, I went to the Chase branch to protest in person and asked to have the investigation reopened. They did and denied me again. I asked for proof of me agreeing to the use of the XXXX app and they could not provide anything showing that I agreed to the use / terms of this service. I also have proof that this same individual had made numerous attempts to make charges with this XXXX account before and after my complaint to Chase but was denied by Chase as fraudulent. However, they were successful 2 times. One for {$750.00} and another for {$1200.00}. To date Chase has refused to reimburse me for these costs. I am not real comfortable as to the Chase Bank 's institutions effort in helping me to recover my funds. I would like to file a complaint against the Chase Bank. As of this writing, I am in the process of leaving Chase Bank. In my opinion they are the ones enabling this fraud!!

This is my final notice regarding your ongoing noncompliance with federal credit reporting laws. I previously disputed the accuracy and legitimacy of several items on my credit report, yet your agency has failed to act in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

Your violations include : Failure to validate the debt as required under 15 USC 1692g ( Section 809 ( b ) ). 
Continuing communication after a certified cease-and-desist request, violating 15 USC 1692c ( Section 805 ( c ) ). 
Harassment under 15 USC 1692d ( Section 806 ). 
Recently, I received notice that your investigation was complete, but the disputed accounts remain on my credit report. These accounts are not only inaccurate but were never authorized by me. No valid contract exists, and I have not provided any written consent for the reporting of these accounts, as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681b. 

I demand that the following items be deleted immediately from my credit report :

Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about!
