Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Reporting and Failure to Maintain Accurate File Information Equifax, Experian, TransUnion To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this formal complaint against the nationwide consumer reporting agenciesEquifax, Experian, and TransUnionfor violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) in relation to the accuracy of both my personal information and tradeline reporting.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Synchrony Bank has repeatedly lowered the credit limit on my CareCredit account ( ending in XXXX ) despite my good credit score, high income, and perfect payment history.

I originally opened this card to pay for a major dental procedure not covered by insurance and have always used it responsibly. I have never missed a payment, and I rarely use this card anymore.

This is the second time they have cut my limit. When I called after the first reduction, I was told there was nothing they could do. These repeated reductions are damaging my credit score by increasing my utilization ratio, which is unfair given my responsible financial history. The explanation they gave ( too many revolving accounts with high balance compared to credit limit ) is not accurate and feels like a generic excuse.

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Under the FDCPA and FCRA, verification is not just a name matchit is a sworn affidavit or certified statement of truth. Per 15 U.S.C. 1681n, your continued reporting without proper verification is willful noncompliance.

I demand proof of delivery of the initial dunning letter within 14 days of placing this account on my credit report, including a certified mail tracking number. If you can not provide this, you must delete this tradeline immediately and cease all collection activity, including reporting. 

I never had an account with XXXX XXXX, and you are neither the original creditor nor a valid assignee. Debt buyers are not creditors under the law. 

This account is still within the federal debt validation window, per 1006.34. Failure to comply will result in further action to seek justice for the harm caused.

Complaint narrative:
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), my rights have been violated. Section 602 of 15 USC 1681 gives me the right to privacy, and Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) states that no one can access or share my account information without my written consent.

Also, according to 15 USC 1666b, a creditor can not report a payment as late on an open-ended credit account.

Because of this, Im requesting that the reported late payment be corrected to PAANL ( Paid As Agreed, Never Late ), and that the payment history be updated to show OK.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing inaccuracies on my credit report and requesting the immediate removal of specific accounts and items. These inaccuracies include unauthorized negative entries, incorrect addresses, and hard inquiries reported without my consent. These actions violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, which requires consumer reporting agencies to block or delete information reported without written consent. You have failed to ensure maximum possible accuracy, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ). The reporting of unauthorized data also breaches 15 U.S.C. 1681b, which governs permissible purposes for obtaining and reporting consumer data. The inaccuracies have caused harm to my creditworthiness, and despite providing documentation, these errors remain uncorrected.
