Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
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: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint against Equifax XXXX XXXX due to their failure to accurately report my credit information, which has severely impacted my life for the past two years. 

I am devastated by the ongoing struggle with both Equifax and XXXX  to correct inaccuracies on my credit report. This situation has profoundly harmed my life, preventing me from obtaining employment due to a lower credit score than I deserve. The inaccurate reporting is not only misleading but also fraudulent, misrepresenting my overall financial health. 

Despite numerous dispute letters and formal requests for correction, Equifax continues to report incorrect information. This has led to embarrassing situations, such as receiving debt collection letters that my mailman can see, all stemming from the mishandling of my information by credit reporting agencies. These agencies are not adhering to the standards required by law, and I feel helpless. 

Specific Issues : - Equifax XXXX XXXX continues to report inaccurate information despite my repeated disputes. 
- Equifax XXXX XXXX has not provided the names, dates, or contact details of individuals they spoke with during their investigations. 
- Outdated and incorrect personal information remains on my report. 
- Equifax and XXXX is violating my privacy by reporting this information without my written consent as per 15 U.S.C. 1681b. 

Supporting Documents : I have attached multiple dispute letters and affidavits sent to Equifax and XXXX, detailing my issues.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I sent a letter to Experian and asked them to investigate the accounts on my report to make sure everything was 100 % accurate on my credit report. However, they did not do it because they told me the investigation was complete on XX/XX/year>. 

I looked at my report on XX/XX/year>, and noticed some things were still incomplete and inaccurate. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual to whom the report relates. 

These accounts XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  are not complete and accurate. 

Open dates, dates of last active, dates of last payment are still not accurate. This is groundS for removal. They violated my rights under 12 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : This law clearly states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions.

And one more thing according to 15 USC 1681s-2 A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

Complaint narrative:
My account with the company and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company 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 in MONTHS REPORTING LATE to be removed They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

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.

This company never sent The periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Delete the late payments from my consumer reports.

Complaint narrative:
I have a vehicle loan with 53.com. I setup automatic payments through their website but they do not seem to be withdrawing the funds, the amount shows as drawn from my account but my accunt does not show the funds being withdrawn. I have attempted to call their customer service numbers and use their opnline support but this seems to lead to nothing, there is no response regardless of what communication method I employ. The online customer service doesn't actually exist. There is no link on their website that will lead to a customer service chat or call. I have made several phone calls to their customer service support lines that are listed in various locations but they seem to never answer any requests.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I have been monitoring my account for the past two years and then unfroze the sub credit bureaus after all investigating on my part was done to correct anomalies and incorrect information. I found out I am locked out of my online Experian account. The verification process always ended unsuccessfully and there is never an actual person you can speak to on the phone like there used to be where you can capture a live picture of the front and back of your drivers license and proceed from there. Finally, I was able to obtain a mailed copy of my Experian Report # XXXX for XX/XX/year> and # XXXX for XX/XX/year>. I saw the last four digits of my phone number had been changed somehow, yet my correct phone number is also listed and not allowed via Experian 's text # XXXX feature which is a major verification issue. No push notifications are coming through to my correct phone number. ALSO, last summer, Experian held my credit score hostage with a " upgrade to refresh your score '' upgrade membership notification. I did not get an updated credit score for months after I unfroze the sub bureaus.

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute about unauthorized transactions. There was a bunch of them. I used my card on XX/XX/2024 at a place by my house called XXXX  XXXX. I took in a little wallet thing I had with my card ID and my pin. I thought my card was in my purse that I left in my sisters car until I got a text message alert XX/XX/2024 asking me about fraudulent charges. So I canceled my card. Wells Fargo said no error occurred and they wouldnt reopen my case. They sent me the information they used in the investigation and none of it states that it was me or someone I know that made the transactions. After I made a complaint against them they closed my account. They didnt handle my first CFPB complaint professionally at all. Talked to them once and they next day they said your case is closed we are doing nothing.
