Complaint narrative:
My account with XXXX XXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX 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!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding unauthorized accounts appearing on my credit report. Despite my repeated attempts to have these accounts removed, they persist, causing significant damage to my financial reputation and well-being. The accounts in question are in clear violation of 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes. It is evident that the credit bureaus have no permissible purpose to report these fraudulent items without my explicit consent. Please see attached file for these items I am complaining. 

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 each account listed without my expressed written consent. I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

Complaint narrative:
I recently disputed an account with Experian due to it being an account that I did not recognize as belonging to me. This account is for XXXX XXXX with a balance of {$310.00}. The dispute with Experian came back as verified and stating that it was an accurate account. This account was not investigated properly because I also submitted a complaint to the debt collector as well and received a letter from them stating that it could not be verified. So how is it possible that Experian stated that it was verified. I am attaching to letter from XXXX XXXX to this complaint.

Company: Avant Holding Company, Inc.
State: FL

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law. Please see attached file for these items I am complaining.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I received an email from the company, stating that I owed a balance. I called the company and informed them that I did not make the purchase. I never had the new card activated. I explained that to them and informed them the purchases were not made by me and I have no idea how the purchases were made when I had the card in my possession. They opened an investigation and about a month later, I received a new bill with the charges put back on the account and was told I was held responsible and if I did not pay, they would report it on my credit report. No other information was provided by them. The card had a charge to XXXX XXXX for {$44.00}, on XX/XX/2023, a charge for XXXX {$110.00} on XX/XX/2023, XXXX for {$110.00} on XX/XX/2023 and a charge to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$100.00} on XX/XX/2023.

Company: Incomm Holdings Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I've purchased a {$500.00} Vanilla Visa gift card at a local store on XX/XX/2024. I've made a few purchases without issue until XX/XX/XXXX when i went to make a purchase it says the card was declined. A thief had somehow access to my card information even though the card was in my possession at home the entire time. They stole my remaining balance of {$210.00} by making a purchase at a XXXX on XX/XX/2024. I've immediately contacted the Vanilla gift card company to dispute this transaction and after making multiple calls to follow up on the status, they eventually told me that they can not reimburse me for the stolen money. This is very unfair as they lack the security of their gift cards leaving consumers vulnerable to thieves and then taking no action to reimburse the victims for their hard earned money. I've contacted them again on XX/XX/2024 to have them tell me they can not do anything to reimburse this stolen money.
