Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
These accounts and inquiries are involved in litigation and does not belong to me. I never established these accounts. These accounts are a result of fraud. I was contacted by a collection agency regarding the accounts that were obtained under my name. I have no knowledge of obtaining any of the accounts listed here in this affidavit report, and was told that I needed to complete this affidavit, along with submitting my personal identification to have the suspected fraudulent accounts investigated and removed immediately.

Company: MOHELA
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I was recently notified that my credit score had dropped by XXXX points. Upon investigation, I learned that XXXX is reporting student loans of $ XXXX for " Mohela '' and another $ XXXX for " Mohela/Dept of Ed. '' These are plainly and clearly duplicate accounts that resulted from Mohela 's recent restructuring. They say it will eventually disappear, but there are news articles to suggest otherwise. XXXX is very quick to dismiss my disputes, saying the information is valid. Common sense and a tiny bit of care would lead anyone to realize if I had a $ XXXX loan for years and suddenly I had a nearly identical and additional amount owed ( the difference amounts to a monthly payment being reflected on the most recent, not on the older account that should no longer exist following the internal transfer ), then this can not be valid. Student loans are not taken out in tens of thousands of dollar increments! But probably XXXX doesn't have any college-educated people on staff, so this may be lost on them.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> I received a letter from your company stating that the item I disputed has been up-dated with new information. Well, after carefully looking at my credit report, I dont see what has been updated, and I dont think that was the reason for my dispute. Im a bit confused here. Please tell me what has been updated? For example, has the balance on my account changed? Was the late payment indication on my account removed? What has been updated? If your company cant fully disclose what has been updated, then I need you to re-investigate the item that I disputed. 

XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Each day your company refuses to investigate the incorrect item is causing me stress. Im asking you for a second time to please investigate the negative accounts listed above.

I think 30 days should be long enough for your company to complete this investigation.

Company: CARDINAL FINANCIAL COMPANY, LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This is not a duplicate complaint, nor has it been addressed. This is a separate issue from the initial complaint and was discovered 20 months after the initial reporting. HUD requires All Findings of fraud and material misrepresentation to be reported using the Loan Review System immediately. They also allow them to choose the source category out of XXXX which requires different remedies for each. Underwriting loan reviews are categorized into XXXX defect areas that represent fundamental characteristics of a loans eligibility for FHA insurance : 1. Borrower Income 2. Borrower Credit 3. Loan to Value and Maximum Mortgage Amount 4. Borrower Assets 5. Property Eligibility 6. Property Appraisal 7. Borrower Eligibility 8. Mortgage Eligibility 9. Lender Operations Defect areas are organized following a consistent pattern of sources, causes, severity tier descriptions and potential remedies. Cardinal Financial chose the category of XXXX XXXX rather than XXXX XXXX despite the defect being an appraisal error and omission. This prompted an incorrect excusal from HUD which Cardinal continues to use to escape accountability and close complaints for the past 34 months. They refuse to submit the loan defect in the correct category because the correct category requires the following. FHA is unable to determine appraiser and/or underwriter compliance with applicable policies for the appraisal, collateral valuation, or property acceptability due to absence of valid documentation. FHA is able to conclude that the property was not appraised and/or underwritten in compliance with applicable policies and the appraised value is not supported or the property is not acceptable as a result. Documentation required for specific property types, programs/products, or by construction status was not obtained to support FHA max insurable loan amount. Mitigating Documentation OR Indemnification - Life-of-Loan Meaning not only does Cardinal Financial have no quality control to prevent appraisal underwriting errors, when discovered, they avoid accountability by choosing the incorrect defect category.

A complaint will be submitted, despite marking it as a duplicate to escape accountability, until the loan defect is submitted to HUD in the correct defect category as was required 34 months ago.

Therefore, Im requesting that the documents Ive provided be carefully reviewed so I can finally have peace of mind.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
My account with Experian was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX 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 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.

Experian 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 am writing to formally file a complaint against TRANSUNION regarding the inclusion of inaccurate and fraudulent accounts on my credit report, which I believe violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and CFPB regulations. My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX My date of birth is XX/XX/year>, and my Social Security XXXX is XXXX. Upon reviewing my TRANSUNION credit report, I discovered several inaccuracies and fraudulent accounts. There are fraudulent accounts on my report, included in my credit reports. I did not open the account and was not informed about it beforehand, indicating it was established without my consent. I have already taken steps to address these issues by contacting TRANSUNION directly. I submitted a dispute and provided supporting documentation, such as drivers license, ssn card, proof of address and FTC report. Despite these efforts, the inaccuracies and fraudulent accounts have not been removed from my credit report, significantly impacting my creditworthiness and financial stability. I am requesting that the CFPB intervene to ensure that these inaccurate and fraudulent accounts are promptly removed from my TRANSUNION credit report. Additionally, I seek written confirmation from TRANSUNION once these accounts have been corrected. I also ask the CFPB to investigate TRANSUNION handling of my dispute and its adherence to FCRA and CFPB rules.

Complaint narrative:
In mid XXXX I received a check in the mail from USAA who I have my home insurance with. The check was for over {$3500.00} and the document with it said that it was for overpayment on my home insurance. This seemed suspicious to my wife and I so on XX/XX/XXXX we called USAA to confirm that this was correct. They said that the check was correctly sent to us and that we were cleared to deposit it. We deposited the check and used it to pay off bills and other debts. They sent us a message several days later saying that they had incorrectly deposited another members mortgage payment into our account and that we now owed that money back as part of our monthly insurance payment. This will cause undue stress as I will have to now use my savings to correct for their error after they said that we could deposit and use the money.
