Complaint narrative:
I am writing to bring to your attention a significant error in my credit report. A previous request was made to investigate and verify a bankruptcy listing on my credit report. Your response stated that the bankruptcy had been verified with the appropriate bankruptcy court. 

Upon receiving your response, I took the initiative to contact the court myself. I was informed that neither my full Social Security number nor any information concerning bankruptcy cases is provided to any credit bureau. I have enclosed a copy of the response from the court, which clearly refutes your claim that the bankruptcy was verified. It is clear they do not report to you or to any credit agencies for that matter. Therefore, your original response verifying the item with the court was either an error or a lie. Either way, the reporting requirements DO NOT COMPLY with FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C 1681 and the information must be UPDATE immediately.

According to Section 611 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), consumers have the right to dispute inaccurate or incomplete information in their credit file, and credit bureaus must investigate such disputes within 30 days.

Company: Tilt Finance, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I started using Empower about 2 months ago and love that I can get cash advances with them fast. I reached out before about 2 maybe 3 weeks ago to tell them that my sons account needs to be taken off because they do not have Authorization to access since the account is IN HIS NAME NOT MINE. I was asked to give the last 4 of the account that is correct and I did this, the issue was not resolved. I deal with multiple apps that access my bank account and NOT ONE OF THEM have accessed my sons account that has been on mine for 3 years now. I don't think I need to tell you that accessing someone's bank account with permission is very illegal, they also removed money out of the account without permission which is crazy because the first Advance that was sent went to my account the correct account, the app is going off of my sons payday that is offset from mine we both get paid biweekly and opposite weeks and no matter what I do I can not fix it and can not remove his account hence the reason I contacted them when I first noticed it. They literally REFUSE to remove my sons bank account from the app and I can not do it, it will not let me delete it.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the unauthorized inquiries listed on my credit report. Despite my previous letter with your bureau, these inquiries remain on my credit file. 
I have taken all necessary steps to address this issue, including contacting the institutions associated with these inquiries and providing comprehensive documentation to substantiate my claims. Despite these efforts, your bureau has yet to resolve this matter satisfactorily. It is essential to note that the nature of these inquiries has been confirmed by the respective institutions, and they have assured me that these inquiries were erroneous and should be removed. Furthermore, other credit bureaus have already acted and removed these unauthorized inquiries from their records. 
Therefore, I am perplexed and concerned by your bureau 's continued reporting of these inquiries. This ongoing issue not only undermines the accuracy of my credit report but also causes significant distress and potential financial harm to me. 
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), your bureau is legally obligated to conduct a thorough and reasonable investigation of disputes. This investigation must promptly review all relevant information provided by the consumer, such as myself. I urge you to reinvestigate these inquiries and remove them from my credit report immediately.
