Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service — Mobile or digital wallet
Issue: Trouble accessing funds in your mobile or digital wallet — 
Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/24 XXXXXXXX XXXX  : I initiated an instant transfer from my Venmo account for {$470.00}. The transaction ID at Venmo is XXXX. 

XX/XX/24 XXXXXXXX XXXX : I contacted Venmo through the chat support function in the app. Venmo support looked at the problem and blamed my bank. 

Support : " In this case, I see that your bank accepted the transfer. Sometimes banks take longer than expected to add the money to your bank account ''. 

XX/XX/24 XXXXXXXX XXXX  : I contacted XXXX. XXXX does not see any pending transactions and claims they have no indication that Venmo sent the money to my account. 
XX/XX/24 : I called Venmo to tell them what XXXX said. They open up dispute ID XXXX XXXX The representative tells me that the dispute team will follow up with me via email. I get an email confirming that the case has been created. 

Over the next several days, I call almost daily trying to get an update on the case. No one follows up in email. No one is giving me any idea about where my money is, when it will be available, and what to expect from the dispute process. At some point, one of the people I speak with on the phone sends me an email asking for my bank statement since the time of the transfer. I provide it via Venmo 's portal.

Yesterday, someone from Venmo support gave me an email for the dispute team and suggested I email them. He assured me that they would be responsive to email. I sent them an email asking for an update and informed them that I planned to create a case with the CFPB if they do not update me on the case. 

This is inconvenient. I'm wasting time trying to chase down money that venmo has lost. They do not seem to be pursuing the issue with any urgency and are certainly not doing anything to keep me informed. I would not have used their service had I been aware that there was a risk of this happening and I do not feel that anything on their website makes it clear that I should be prepared for something like this to happen.
