Consumer complaint received 2024-11-11 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.

Issue: Problem getting a card or closing an account — Trouble closing card
Company: Netspend Corporation
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I received a prepaid card in the mail from Netspend welcoming me to my new account. I did not open an account with this company and indeed have never even heard of them. When I called them I was informed that it appears someone had committed fraud opening an account in my name utilizing my social security number which was part of an earlier data breach ( XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ). When I asked them to disclose how someone was able to open such an account despite my credit being frozen and an existing fraud alert on my credit file because of a similar issue in the past with another financial institution, I was informed that the only way they could discuss anything with me was to contact my local law enforcement and file a police report which I would then need to fax to them with additional information. I am obviously not going to do that because it would be hours of work for likely zero benefit. It is frustrating to me that financial institutions continue to allow people to open financial accounts fraudulently in my name, using my information, despite there being both a fraud alert and my credit being frozen. I'm not sure what can be done but a company choosing to do this is clearly willing to engage in fraud and unwilling to spend the resources and effort to ensure that people are genuinely who they pretend to be when opening an account.

I still was billed {$150.00}, which now has forced me to have my bank open an investigation into this company to confirm that I requested the cancellation of their service. I most likely will have to have a new debit card issued because of this company 's lack of properly updating their records. This is totally unacceptable, & should never have happened in the first place. I will never do business with this company again, & I'm upset about the principle of the matter.

Complaint narrative:
Description of complaint : Greetings. I purchased jewelry from JCPenney in XX/XX/XXXX. I went to return the item On XX/XX/XXXX. I was refused a refund because the store manager said I exceeded the return policy of 60 days. However, I have the original receipt and there is no policy stated on the front or back of receipt. There is also no return policy stated throughout the store ( I have pictures to prove it ). I was told by the clerk that I should have gone online to review the policy, however I purchased my item in store, I simply wanted to return the ring and have the credit refunded to my card. I am financially burdened and decided to return the jewelry because I realized I could not afford the payment to a change in circumstances. According to consumer protection act, it prohibits the use of deception, false pretenses or suppression or omission to any fact that is material to a business dealing or transaction. JCPenney 's policy was not and is not stated and clear for consumer choices. I would really like for them to remove this from my credit as soon as possible.

On XX/XX/2024, I spoke with a representative of RoundPoint to set up automatic payments for my mortgage.

However, the autopay was never properly set up, leading to a missed payment. This error was solely due to the servicer 's failure to execute my clearly communicated request. As a result, I have been charged late fees and this incident may negatively impact my credit score. 

I request the following remedies : -Removal of all late fees associated with this incident -Correction of any negative credit reporting related to this late payment -Written confirmation that autopay has been properly established -Documentation of the XX/XX/XXXX phone call to verify my request Prior to filing this complaint, I attempted to resolve this issue directly with RoundPoint Mortgage on XX/XX/XXXX by phone, but the issue remains unresolved. 
T he following details support my complaint : Mortgage Account Number : [ Number ] Date of phone call requesting autopay : XX/XX/2024 Date of missed payment : XX/XX/2024 I have maintained timely payments on my mortgage prior to this incident, and this late payment was solely due to the servicer 's failure to execute my requested autopay setup. 
Please investigate this matter and assist in resolving these issues. I can be reached at XXXX for any additional information needed. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
