Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
This letter serves as a formal demand for compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) regarding the handling of my credit report. I have requested this account 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 XXXX 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 account. 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.

The 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 accounts is fully investigated and VERIFIABLE PROOF IS FORWARED TO ME.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the Equifax credit reporting agency , block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint.

I am filing this FTC Identity Theft Affidavit to report five fraudulent accounts appearing on my consumer FICO Equifax credit report which I do not recognize as reported and which are the result of identity theft and fraud. These fraudulent accounts consist of a Collection/Chargeoff opened at XXXXXXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX under the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  a Collection/Chargeoff opened at XXXXXXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a Credit Card opened at XXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX a Credit Card opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  and a Credit Card opened at XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX under the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. These accounts have resulted in several fraudulent hard inquiries and fraudulent collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report. I demand that the aforementioned fraudulent items be removed from each of my consumer credit reports and that all collection activity related to said items cease pursuant to my rights within the FCRA and FDCPA laws.

All accounts above, collections, late payments, and charge-offs result from identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaint # XXXX  as proof from the US Federal Trade Commission that all of the aforementioned consumer credit accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I demand that the fraudulent items be removed from my consumer credit report and that all collection activity related to said items cease pursuant to my rights within the FCRA and FDCPA laws

Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute a billing issue related to my credit card account. I initially received a credit card with a credit limit of {$300.00}, and over the course of the month, I used approximately {$120.00} for necessary fuel expenses. Toward the end of the month, the issuer increased my credit limit to {$500.00}. However, I was then informed that my payment due was $ XXXX having only spent {$120.00}. 

In response, I stopped using the card and paid the {$120.00} that I rightfully owed. Despite this, my account now reflects an additional balance of {$60.00}, which I do not understand and am unable to pay due to my fixed monthly budget. I believe this situation is unfair and request that it be reviewed and resolved accordingly.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Equifax is reporting a 30-day late payment for XX/XX/XXXX on my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account XXXX partial account number : XXXX ). I disputed this error, and Equifax responded to the CFPB on XX/XX/XXXX, stating that the account is currently reporting as paid as agreed, with no past due payments. 
However, my most recent Equifax credit report, dated XX/XX/XXXX, still shows that same late payment. This directly contradicts their response to the CFPB and proves that the error was not corrected. 
Equifax has not provided any documentation validating the alleged delinquency, which violates FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) for failing to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation. Maintaining inaccurate information after declaring it to be current is misleading and harmful to my credit. 
I am requesting that the CFPB compel Equifax to delete the XX/XX/XXXX late payment from this account and ensure compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Complaint narrative:
I opened a XXXX XXXX at a XXXX XXXX I am a XXXX  at to sell XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
I received about {$600.00} in payments via Cash App for the convenience of the customers. 
The first day, I managed to withdraw only {$220.00}, after that amount, the app blocked my payments to be accepted, demanding that I had to verify my account to accept the others payments. But because I don't have a SSN, I can't verify my account. I got in contact with the support team but nothing was solved. I requested a manager of the department to contact me to resolve the issue, but still, he/she ( XXXX ) keep saying that I need a SSN to verify my account if I exceeded the limit of my account, but again, the total amount received was {$650.00} and it's not over the limit established by the app of {$1000.00}. 
Right now, all these payments not accepted ( {$420.00} ) got expired and I lost all these payments. And I haven't heard from Cash App since last week.

Complaint narrative:
A month ago, I submitted a complaint to these Bureaus, but the incorrect information on my report is still there. I haven't heard back from them, aside from your notification that the company has replied to my complaint. How can I trust that they've properly investigated the inaccuracies? What steps did they take to verify the accounts? This entire situation is really frustrating, especially since it's been over 30 days since I filed my complaint.
