Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against Navy Federal Credit Union regarding multiple overdraft fees I have incurred. Despite having sufficient funds when transactions were authorized, I was charged fees due to lagged posting of charges and credits. This issue aligns with the recent CFPB findings against Navy Federal for similar practices, where transactions settled with insufficient balances despite initially available funds. I believe these practices are unfair and request an investigation into my account transactions.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint to request immediate intervention due to serious violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) by EQUIFAX. Despite previous requests for correction, these violations continue to negatively impact my credit report and financial standing.

Details of the Complaint : 1. Failure to Ensure Maximum Possible Accuracy The FCRA requires that credit bureaus and creditors ensure the accuracy of the information they report. My credit report contains inaccurate entries from EQUIFAX that remain unverified despite formal disputes, causing significant harm to my credit score and credibility. Previous attempts to address these inaccuracies have been inadequately handled, demonstrating a failure to uphold FCRA standards for accuracy.

2. Inadequate Investigation and Reliance on Automated Verification Systems Under FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ) and 1681s-2, creditors and credit bureaus must conduct thorough investigations of disputed information. However, my previous disputes have been met with automated responses through systems like e-OSCAR, which fail to meet legal requirements for a complete investigation. This approach neglects a comprehensive review of the disputed entries, perpetuating inaccurate information on my report.

3. Non-Compliance with Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) Requirements As outlined in TILA, creditors must issue clear and accurate billing statements and disclose essential account information to consumers. Creditor has not adhered to TILA requirements in handling my account, resulting in erroneous charges and inaccurate reporting. This failure to comply with TILA has compounded the inaccuracies on my credit report, further violating my rights as a consumer.

4. Violation of FDCPA Standards for Accuracy and Non-Deceptive Practices The FDCPA mandates that debt collectors and furnishers of information must report accurate, verifiable data. The accounts in question have been repeatedly reported inaccurately, with misleading information that has not been corrected despite my disputes, constituting a violation of FDCPA protections.

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against Portfolio Recovery ( Acct # XXXX ) for violating my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute on account XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX due to inconsistencies in the credit reporting and the account being apart of identity theft. Experian denied to follow up and do a thorough investigation. I recently was notified that the CFPB have filed a lawsuit against Experian on XXXX XXXX due to failure to investigate consumer disputes violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act. They also alleged Experian failed to reinvestigate disputes, ensure previous deleted information was not reinserted back on consumers credit report, did not communicate relevant information to data furnishers, and accepted data furnishers responses without scrutiny. Thus, creating a financial threat to my stability due to the harm is caused by not removing inaccurate information from my report. It has unjustly lowered my credit score and has caused me to be a victim of a third party debt collector. The debt collector has bought alleged debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX due to Experian not reporting that I have disputed charges, inquires, and inaccurate information. It allowed a third party debt collector XXXX XXXX XXXX, account number XXXX to also report on my credit report without accurate information. I am requesting these derogatory remarks to be removed or corrected immediately as it is affecting me my chances of getting ( house, car, etc ). Experian violates my rights as a consumer and federal law. Nonetheless, Experian has not investigated my reporting, but It allowed data furnishers to even update incorrect inquires dates to allow them to stay on your credit report for longer periods of time. The accounts listed are incorrect and do not reflect my true credit history.
