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:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. 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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute certain negative entries currently listed on my credit report.

My repeated follow-ups have been met with little to no action, and the continued presence of these errors has caused significant financial and emotional stress. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the legal right to an accurate and verifiable credit report. I am requesting that you take immediate and thorough steps to investigate and correct these items. Failure to resolve them in a timely manner would constitute a violation of my rights under federal law.

Company: Block, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I placed a XXXX order on XX/XX/year>, and never received it i paid XXXX XXXX I contacted XXXX multiple timesat least 5 callsand they kept giving me the runaround. Eventually, they said the issue was escalated and marked as compensation, but then they denied me a refund. They told me to dispute the transaction with Cash App instead. 

I submitted a dispute to Cash App, but they denied it twice. They claimed I received the order based on my account history, which is false. I never got what I paid for, and now both XXXX and Cash App are refusing to take responsibility. I want my money back for an order I never received.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: The Bureaus, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the continued reporting of a debt by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX that has already been paid in full. This debt was settled via a money order issued by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and cleared in XX/XX/XXXX. I initially submitted proof of this payment on XX/XX/XXXX, including documentation from my bank confirming that the money order was processed and cashed. Despite this, my dispute was rejected. I submitted a second dispute on XX/XX/XXXX, once again attaching the same verifiable proof that the debt was satisfied, and that dispute was also wrongfully rejected. This continued inaccurate reporting is not only unjustified but a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I demand that this account be immediately corrected or removed from all records and credit reporting.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint regarding an unverified debt that is being reported on my credit file by Equifax. I previously submitted a written request for verification of this alleged debt and asked the credit reporting agency to provide documentation showing the creditors legal right to collect, including a signed contract or judgment on XX/XX/year>. Instead of responding with adequate proof, on XX/XX/year> Equifax sent back a generic response without the documentation I requested under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

Additionally, I am currently receiving government assistance ( XXXX XXXX XXXX  and this collection attempt is targeting protected income, which raises further consumer protection concerns. I believe this reporting may violate the FCRA as well as consumer rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

The collection account in question has not been validated properly and is harming my ability to obtain housing and other essentials. I am requesting that this unverified item be removed from my credit report immediately until full and proper verification is provided.

Complaint narrative:
These entries remain unverified and questionable. Despite multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies properly investigated and resolved, no meaningful action has been taken. I have submitted all required documentation and followed up repeatedly, yet the errors persist. This ongoing lack of action has caused undue financial hardship and has significantly affected my well-being. The mental and emotional toll of dealing with these unresolved discrepancies has been overwhelming. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report, including the removal of unverifiable or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate steps to verify and rectify these items, as failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law.

Complaint narrative:
15 USC 1666b 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.

I requested proof that the company provided information regarding late payments, as required under Section 15 U.S.C. 1637 ( b ). Additionally, the vehicle associated with the account was totaled in an accident, and the insurance company paid off the remaining loan balance. Given these circumstances, this inaccuracy should no longer be reported on my consumer credit report.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I have been enrolled with autopay from the beginning of my card activation with Marcus by Goldman Sachs for over 3 years. On the statements for XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Marcus failed to withdraw the full statement balance using my initial autopay setup. For some reason the system only withdrew partial payments, which resulted in Marcus charging my account interest fees for the remaining balance. I reached out to the financial institution and explained that I have always been enrolled in autopay, and this has never happened before, they advised that this will be reviewed, and I will be notified of the decision. After both attempts, they notified me that the review was closed not in my favor. I have never been late on any payments ; autopay always withdrew my entire statement balance and never has this happened before. The autopay is still setup the same as it was when I first enrolled 3 years ago. This is an internal system error of the financial institution, and they can't even explain it. Their notice that the reversal has been denied without sufficient evidence is incomprehensible and unethical for any credit or financial institution.
