Complaint narrative:
Issue Type : Incorrect information on your credit report Company : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( select the one youre submitting this complaint against ) Complaint Details : I am filing this urgent complaint because the credit reporting agencies are violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by re-inserting previously deleted collection accounts without proper certification or notification. These accounts are showing back up on my credit report after being removed, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ). 

Specifically : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX My score was unfairly reduced by over 75 points due to this unlawful re-reporting. Once an item is removed, the data furnisher must provide a certification of accuracy before re-inserting it. I was not notified within the 5 business days as required by law, and I did not receive any documentation validating these accounts.

These actions are unlawful, damaging, and appear to be a coordinated attempt to suppress my financial progress. I have disputed these accounts multiple times, and yet they continue to show up, damaging my reputation and access to fair credit. 

I demand an immediate reinvestigation and permanent deletion of these accounts as required by FCRA. I also request that the CFPB investigate these recurring patterns of FCRA violations by the agencies and data furnishers involved. 

Supporting documentation is available and has been submitted to the credit bureaus. I respectfully ask the CFPB to intervene to stop this unlawful behavior and ensure these accounts are permanently deleted.

Complaint narrative:
This complaint serves as a formal demand for compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding the handling of my credit report. I have requested the following accounts listed below to removed from my credit report due to identity theft. This is my several attempt to resolve this matter. The previous letters have come with zero compliance. Your failure to provide verifiable proof and your reliance on generic, non-substantive responses violate federal law and my consumer rights. I will not tolerate these deliberate evasions. 

Despite my repeated disputes, your agency has failed to provide legally required documentation proving the validity of the reported information. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), upon receiving a dispute, you are legally required to conduct a meaningful investigation and provide substantive evidence verifying the accuracy of the disputed accounts. Your boilerplate responses do not meet this legal standard, and your continued negligence constitutes a blatant violation of federal law.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ), you are required to maintain maximum possible accuracy in consumer credit reports. Your continued reporting of unverified and inaccurate information, despite my multiple disputes, demonstrates reckless disregard for the law and my rights.

You have 30 days from the date of this letter to provide the following : 1.Actual verification of the disputed account, including original documentation from the data furnisher proving the validity of the debtnot generic statements from the creditor or data furnisher.

2.A detailed explanation of the investigation conducted, including the specific steps taken to verify the accuracy of the information.

3.The names, contact information, and job titles of the individuals who handled my dispute.

4.A statement confirming removal of any information that can not be fully verified as per 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ).

Failure to comply will result in immediate legal action. I am fully prepared to escalate this matter to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and my states Attorney General. Additionally, I will explore all legal avenues, including but not limited to, filing a lawsuit for willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which entitles me to statutory damages, punitive damages, attorney fees, and costs.

This account do not belong to me, as they are fraudulent. The banks have agreed to remove this account from my records. Im confused why you still feel theyre reporting accurately. Please see this account are fully investigated and VERIFIABLE PROOF IS FORWARED TO ME.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the continued presence of inaccurate information on my credit report, despite multiple previous attempts to rectify these errors. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), you are obligated to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information you report. 

These inaccuracies have adversely affected my creditworthiness and have caused undue stress and financial hardship. 

I would like to draw your attention to recent enforcement actions that underscore the importance of accurate credit reporting : The CFPB sued Experian for failing to properly investigate consumer disputes, resulting in the inclusion of incorrect information on credit reports. 
XXXX XXXX  was fined nearly {$28.00} XXXX for providing inaccurate, negative information about its customers to credit reporting agencies and for delays in correcting errors. 
XXXX  faced a {$23.00} XXXX fine for failures related to tenant screening and security freezes, which included not ensuring the accuracy of rental background checks. 

These cases highlight the serious consequences of non-compliance with the FCRA. 

I am requesting that you : 1. Conduct a thorough and impartial reinvestigation of the disputed items.

2. Delete or correct all inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information.

3. Provide me with a copy of the updated credit report reflecting these changes.

Please be advised that failure to comply with these requests may compel me to seek legal remedies, including filing complaints with the CFPB and pursuing litigation for damages resulting from your non-compliance.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I had been looking into personal payday loans to help out with bills, everyday expenses. I was not in immediate financial need of a loan. This tribal company who hides behind their tribal law, offered {$1200.00}. This payday loan had a XXXX APR and the payback and the payback amount that a {$1200.00} was {$5100.00}. Nobody of sane mind would take this ride offer. They sent me paperwork with my name typed as my signature. The APR the company charges and expects to be paid is criminal. The company praise on money deprived people in a desperate time. I am not that person and would never agree to these terms. Minto Money needs to be investigated. These terms are in a 11 page document that I saw after the fact and wouldnt in my wildest dreams think this APR would be legal. I will fight this to my XXXX day. Numbers were plugged in after my name was typed in as a legal signature. Tribal lenders of pay day loan hide behind there tribal laws and verbiage that was not previously presented to me. Im asking this loan be revoked ASAP and these companies ( Starting with Minto Money ) be shut down for this scam.

State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint against Equifax for abusing the dispute process and exceeding the allowed time to investigate. I submitted a written dispute regarding an account reported by XXXX. Equifax completed their investigation and issued results, marking the dispute as resolved. However, after closing the dispute, Equifax later reopened the matter and claimed a new 60-day extension despite no new information or justification for doing so.

This is my first dispute on this account with Equifax, and they had more than enough time to complete a proper investigation. Reopening the case after closure is a clear delay tactic meant to stall action and further harm my credit. 

Equifax and the data furnisher have failed to validate ownership of the account, failed to show proof of payment by the collector to establish legal ownership, and have provided no legitimate evidence to continue reporting the account. 

I am requesting immediate correction and removal of the tradeline, and I am seeking {$50000.00} in damages for emotional stress, time lost, and financial harm caused by this unreasonable delay. 

Attachments include the initial dispute, the original closure response, and the communication showing the new delay.
