My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history withXX/XX/XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated.

Company: PENNYMAC LOAN SERVICES, LLC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am extremely upset with PennyMac and its loan modification team. In 2024, I was out of work most of the year and was able to make many of the mortgage payments. We needed help for 5 months and went on a forebearance agreement with PennyMac. I complied to all of their requests and spoke to them multiple times through the process including the monthly touchpoints. None of the advisors brought to light the fact that once I was back to work and able to resume my monthly payments that PennyMac would report my payments as 150 days late to the credit bureaus and significantly damage my credit score. So now, even if I wanted to sell my house, I would not be eligible to rent an apartment or house. Not only is this a deceitful practice but none of the representatives spoke clear English making me wonder and doubt if they understood my questions because their answers were so basic and repetitive. They would send me letters with extensions and names to call but I was never allowed to speak to that person ( wonder if they even exist ) and the phone agents could never connect me to their extensions and there was not an option to select their extension on the phone menus. Very deceptive and frustrating to deal with their organization.

Complaint narrative:
Company is refusing to remove the following accounts as I have already reported to them that they are in violation of several consumer rights. They are also not truly conducting the proper research. I have submitted this same complaint several times and nothing is changing. A prime example is the XXXX account in which the dealer never even provided resale documentation nor proper notices for repossession and Experian and TransUnion still will not remove.

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of dispute information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has neither corrected nor removed dispute items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the dispute accounts, as Experians inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. 
Despite my submissions, Equifax consistently responds within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation.

This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C.

5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation. These are the accounts XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX

Re : Complaint Regarding XXXX Data Breach and Violation of Consumer Protection Laws Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am filing this formal complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding its failure to protect consumer data, resulting in the massive 2017 data breach, which exposed sensitive personal information, including names, Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses, and in some cases, drivers license numbers.

Failure to Notify in a Timely Manner : XXXX failed to notify affected consumers, including myself, in a timely and transparent manner, violating legal standards under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq.

Inadequate Remediation : The remedies offered, such as free credit monitoring, are insufficient to mitigate the long-term risks of identity theft and fraud. 
Failure to Maintain Reasonable Security Practices : XXXX violated the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( GLBA ), 15 U.S.C. 6801 ( b ), which requires financial institutions to protect the security and confidentiality of customer data.

Ongoing Harm : Despite corrective measures, I have experienced fraudulent activity and credit issues as a direct consequence of the breach.

Legal Violations Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. 


1681b : XXXX failed to properly restrict access to consumer information.
