Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
My student loans through XXXX have been in forbearance by the XXXX XXXX. I was never officially notified in a proper way that my student loans have come out of forbearance earlier this year. Once they did, I had all of my accounts go XXXX  days past due resulting in destroying my credit. 

As soon as I learned of this, I contacted XXXX and paid all of my accounts up to date and have been paying them since. Because this was an error on their part of not notifying me correctly, then my credit should not be destroyed because of it. 

Please help me correct this on my credit report. 

Thank you

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Ongoing Harm from Identity Theft and Improper Reporting by Early Warning Services In XX/XX/year>, my Social Security card was stolen and subsequently used to fraudulently open multiple accounts in my name. Since that time, I have taken extensive protective measures, including placing long-term credit locks and fraud alerts with the credit reporting agencies. 

Recently, after unlocking my credit to attempt to open a traditional bank account, I discovered that I am being flagged by Early Warning Services ( EWS ). I believe this is the direct result of fraudulent accounts that were opened under my stolen Social Security number years ago. 

I am not responsible for this fraudulent activity, yet I am being unfairly denied access to banking services. This has caused ongoing financial harm and prevented me from establishing normal banking relationships.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against TransUnion for reporting unauthorized hard inquiries on my credit report. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 604, a consumer reporting agency may only include inquiries if I authorized them or if a company had a permissible purpose. The following inquiries are appearing on my credit file without my knowledge or consent : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> I did not authorize these companies to pull my credit report. TransUnion has failed to provide proof of my authorization. These inquiries are inaccurate, damaging my credit score, and should be removed immediately. 
I am requesting the CFPB ensure TransUnion investigates properly and removes these unauthorized inquiries unless TransUnion can provide signed documentation showing that I consented to them.

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.

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report. 

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress. 

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

State: GA

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- 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 concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Complaint narrative:
* * Subject : * * Failure of Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian to Remove Fraudulent Accounts Despite Proof of Identity Theft * * To Whom It May Concern, * * I am filing this complaint against all three major credit bureaus * * Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian * * for willfully violating my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by refusing to remove fraudulent accounts that I have repeatedly disputed and provided evidence of being identity theft. 

The fraudulent accounts include the following : 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 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Experian only ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I have submitted to all three bureaus multiple times : * A * * police report * * from the XXXX XXXX Sheriffs Department XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX confirming I am a victim of identity theft. 
* An * * FTC Identity Theft Report * *. 
* Copies of my * * government-issued ID * * and * * proof of residence * *. 

Despite this, these fraudulent accounts continue to be reported on my credit files. Their failure to block or remove these accounts within the required timeframe is a direct violation of * * FCRA 605B * *, which mandates credit bureaus to block information resulting from identity theft * * no later than four ( 4 ) business days * * after receiving proper documentation. 

Furthermore, * * Experian * * has improperly stalled by repeatedly claiming that my documentation was not received, despite having been submitted multiple times. This is bad faith conduct and a direct denial of my consumer rights. 

* * Requested Resolution : * * * Immediate removal of the listed fraudulent accounts from all three credit bureau reports. 
* Written confirmation that these accounts have been permanently deleted. 
* Assurance that no further collection or reporting activity will occur related to these fraudulent accounts. 

I expect prompt corrective action. If the credit bureaus fail to comply, I reserve the right to pursue further legal remedies for damages caused by their continued non-compliance.

Complaint narrative:
I am filling a complaint against Capital One regarding the deceptive practices related to their 360 " high yield interest '' savings accounts. Capital One misrepresented the 360 savings account as having one of the nation 's highest interest rates, yet failed to notify accountholders about the superior rates offered by the 360 performance savings account. This deliberated obscurity and lack of transparency violated consumer trust and resulted in significant financial losses for many, breaching the consumer financial protection act and the truth in savings act. I seek redress for the misleading practices and failure to fulfill their advertised promises.
