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: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This is a follow-up regarding my credit dispute originally submitted on XX/XX/year>, concerning the following accounts : XXXX / XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX As of today, it has been more than 60 days since my dispute was filed, and these accounts still show an active dispute status without final resolution. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), consumer reporting agencies are required to complete an investigation within 30 days ( or 45 days if supplemental documents are provided ), and to either verify, correct, or delete the disputed information. Since the investigation has exceeded the allowable time frame, I am demanding the immediate removal of the disputed accounts from my credit file, as they remain unverified and unresolved beyond the legal limit. If this matter is not resolved promptly, I am prepared to escalate the issue to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and seek further legal remedies as provided by the FCRA. Please confirm in writing that the disputed items have been removed, or provide documented proof of final verification.

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams.

Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I receive a communication from Midland Credit Management regarding the debt associated with my account number XXXX. They offered a settlement option to resolve the debt, which includes a discount off the current balance XXXX. 
However, I previously submitted a debt validation request under Section 809 of the Fair Debt Collection Practice Act ( FDCPA ) and am concerned that their response did not adequately verify the debt. Specifically, they failed to provide : 1. Documentation from the original creditor ( The Bank of Missouri ).

2. A break down of the total amount including any interests or fees.

3. Verification of their authorization to collect this debt.

I request that all collections activities cease until they provide the necessary validation. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
Synchrony Bank closed all of my credit cards with them. Both store and major credit cards. Reason was stated that they did not believe that I could make the monthly payments. Which is untrue. I paid them in full monthly if not I made larger than minimum payments due each month. Each representative I spoke with read that they could not do anything to assist me that a letter was mailed. Which I did not receive. Also, stated that they did not have any contact information for the department that closed my accounts. Also, asked for contact information for the CEO or Corporate office. Stated they did not have that information. This is very poor customer service all around.
