Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) and the U.S. Bankruptcy Code ( 11 U.S.C. 349 ( b ) ). My Chapter 13 bankruptcy case was dismissed, not discharged. Under 349 ( b ), dismissal restores all parties to their pre-petition status and vacates the bankruptcys legal effects, meaning the bankruptcy is legally nullified. 

Despite this, your agency continues to report a bankruptcy public record and/or related accounts as Petition for XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy or Included in bankruptcy. This is inaccurate and misleading because no discharge occurred, and the case was legally voided upon dismissal. 

I previously submitted written disputes, but the record remains. I am requesting the complete deletion of the dismissed bankruptcy public record immediately, and correction of all related accounts to reflect their original good standing prior to the filing, in accordance with 11 U.S.C. 349 ( b ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681i.

XX/XX/XXXX, I transferred {$5000.00} from my credit union account to my capital one account. The money was not available to me until XX/XX/XXXX. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I transferred {$1000.00} from my credit union account to my capital one account and it is not going to be available to me until Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX. This is not a check deposit. This is cash from credit union to bank. I think capital one is holding onto the money so they can earn interest and I believe that these dates are not in line with federal regulations.

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

Complaint narrative:
After reviewing my credit report, I identified several accounts and inquiries that are being reported inaccurately, incompletely, and without proper verification. Despite previous disputes, these items continue to appear without any lawful documentation or proof of ownership. Specifically, accounts from the XXXX of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX  are being reported with either outdated, duplicate, or unverifiable data. Some of these accounts are marked as open or charged off without evidence of payment history or lawful collection rights. Others are being updated every month with the same delinquency, which is a clear sign of data re-aging, a direct violation of FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ). Furthermore, the collection agencies involved have not provided any documentation to establish that they are the legal owners of the debts they are reporting. The presence of these inaccuracies violates FCRA 607 ( b ), which requires maximum possible accuracy, and FDCPA 809 ( b ), which mandates validation before any collection or reporting activity. In addition, my credit report includes unauthorized credit inquiries from companies that have not provided proof of my consent, violating FCRA 604 ( a ). These actions have caused unnecessary harm to my creditworthiness and reflect noncompliance with federal law.

Complaint narrative:
I recently reviewed my consumer report and identified several inaccuracies that must be corrected immediately. These errors have caused me significant distress, and I demand swift resolution to ensure my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) are upheld. I demand that the accounts, inquiries and personal information should be removed because creditors are not taking further compliance with my request in line with the FCRA. Failure to comply with these demands will result in further action to protect my rights and hold the creditors accountable for their egregious actions. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about! ( list all accounts, inquiries and Pi that you couldn't put on the FTc report ). Please see the attached file.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the recent response provided in regard to my complaint filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) concerning the inaccurate reporting of a bankruptcy on my credit file. I have serious concerns about the validity of credit bureaus verification process and the credibility of the information allegedly used to substantiate this reporting. The CFPB response states that the disputed public record, labeled as " XXXX BKPT XXXX  IN XXXX XXXXVERIFIED AS REPORTED, '' has been reviewed and verified. However, I have obtained clear, written confirmation from the relevant court Indiana XXXX Bankruptcy XXXX that they do not report or furnish bankruptcy proceedings information to credit reporting agencies. This official statement from the court raises serious questions about who, in fact, provided the information used in your " verification '' process. Furthermore, I contacted XXXX, a known third-party data provider, and they confirmed that they have no record of the bankruptcy account in question. This evidence contradicts any claim that the information was verified as reported. Given that : 1. 2. The court itself has stated it does not report information to credit bureaus. XXXX, a potential data source, has confirmed no record of the account. It is clear that TransUnion lacks a reliable and valid source to justify the continued reporting of this bankruptcy on my credit file. This failure in the verification process constitutes a direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under Section 611, which requires that consumer reporting agencies conduct a reasonable investigation to ensure the accuracy of information included in consumer files.
