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

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 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.

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 account listed without my expressed written consent.

Issue: Problem when making payments — You never received your bill or did not know a payment was due
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
Dear XXXX COMENITY/ XXXX XXXX I was recently reviewing my credit report and was surprised to discover a late payment reported for XX/XX/XXXX ; XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX 2024. 

I am uncertain how this occurred, as I believe I made my payments upon receiving my statements. My only assumption is that my monthly statement may not have reached me. 

Given our longstanding positive relationship, I kindly request the removal of this 30-day late payment from my credit report and a refund of any late fees that may have been assessed. Additionally, under the provisions of the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) 15 USC 1666b, I believe I was incorrectly billed. As I do not find this to be an accurate reflection of my payment history, I would prefer to resolve this matter promptly without unnecessary complications for either of us. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to continuing my positive experience with your institution. 

Sincerely,

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccuracies on my credit report related to identity theft. I submitted my initial dispute on XX/XX/XXXX, along with a Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) Identity Theft Report and additional documentation supporting my claim. However, your agency has failed to meet its obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

Violations of the FCRA 1.Failure to Conduct a Reasonable Investigation ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ) Under the FCRA, credit reporting agencies are required to conduct a reasonable investigation upon receiving a dispute. Despite providing a comprehensive FTC Identity Theft Report and detailed supporting evidence, I have not received confirmation of any substantive investigation into the disputed items.

2.Failure to Notify Me of Investigation Results ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 6 ) ) The FCRA mandates that consumers be notified of the results of an investigation within 30 days of submitting a dispute. To date, I have not received any such notification, nor have I been informed of the outcome of your review or the process by which my dispute was evaluated.

3.Failure to Block Inaccurate Information Promptly ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) The FCRA requires credit reporting agencies to block information resulting from identity theft upon receipt of appropriate documentation, such as an FTC Identity Theft Report. This has not occurred in my case.

Precedent Cases Supporting My Position Your failure to comply with FCRA requirements is not only a violation of my rights but also exposes your agency to liability, as demonstrated in precedent cases : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) : This case emphasized that credit reporting agencies have a duty to conduct reasonable investigations beyond relying on the data provided by furnishers. 

XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) : The Supreme Court upheld consumer rights in disputes related to credit reporting inaccuracies, reinforcing the accountability of credit bureaus under the FCRA.

Requested Resolution To resolve this matter, I demand the following actions : 1.Conduct a reasonable and thorough reinvestigation of the disputed accounts and transactions associated with my identity theft.

2.Provide a detailed written summary of your investigation, including the steps taken and evidence reviewed.

3.Immediately block or remove all inaccurate information resulting from the identity theft.

If this matter is not resolved promptly, I will have no choice but to escalate my complaint by filing with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and potentially pursuing legal remedies.

Complaint narrative:
Capital One auto finance has contacted me regarding a vehicle loan that I am no longer financially responsible for per court order ( divorce decree ). I have a divorce decree stating that I am no longer financially responsible for the vehicle. I have advised the Capital One rep by contacting Capital One by phone back in XX/XX/2023. They told me that my court order is null and void as they will not remove me from the loan unless the primary owner refinances the loan. Since then, the primary owner has now defaulted on the loan and Capital One is still contacting me via phone and email requesting payment. Each time I speak with them I'm told he has to refinance in order to remove me from the loan regardless of the divorce decree signed by the judge.
