Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate and misleading information on my credit report related to the following account : Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Type : Loan Account Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Final Payment Date : XX/XX/XXXX Reported Loan Term Completion : XX/XX/XXXX Account Status : Paid in Full The account referenced above was a loan that was fully satisfied and paid in full by XX/XX/XXXX, as per the loan terms. I made my last payment on XX/XX/XXXX, to finalize any balance, and the account is now closed. However, Experian is reporting late payments on this account after the loan was already marked as paid which is factually and legally inaccurate. 

This erroneous reporting constitutes multiple violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. ), including : - FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) : Furnishers must not report information they know or have reasonable cause to believe is inaccurate.

- FCRA 607 ( b ) : Credit reporting agencies must maintain procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy of consumer information. 
- FCRA 611 ( a ) : Upon dispute, the credit bureau is legally required to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation within 30 days.

- FCRA 623 ( b ) : After receiving a dispute, the furnisher must investigate and correct any inaccurate reporting.

I had a monthly plan of {$45.00} with XXXX XXXX and because I have been paying for a long time and the account did no seem to get smaller I requested an itemized statement, so after multiple communications they were very rude and told me that I needed to pay a bigger montly amount, since that was not an option for me I continued making individual payments and suddenly the account was closed and I started to receive phone calls and texts from Harris & Harris. I was able to talked wiht one of Harris & Harris ' representatives, who told me that I could make any payment amount. I told her I would start making XXXX XXXX  monthly payments but when I went to pay online the collectors are charging me a {$6.00} fee for everytime I make a payment.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AZ

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 account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION

Complaint narrative:
I 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 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.
