State: AL

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX U.S. Code XXXX ) says ( XXXX ) 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 XXXX U.S. Code XXXX ( XXXX ) and XXXX U.S. Code XXXX. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under XXXX U.S. Code XXXX, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: Carvana Group, LLC
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
48 hours ago I bought a car on carvana, 10 mins after i purchased the car and agreed to an ACH cash payment and delivery, I realized the car had a salvage title based on the XXXX report. I called back and Carvana told me that they could no longer sell me the car and if I would like another. There were no other make/models available in the year, mileage, color or spec I wanted. They told me the transaction was canceled. I asked if they would be taking the money, the representative told me that the {$390.00} delivery fee would take 10-15 business days, but that the {$24000.00} would not be drafted as the car was unsellable. I received a text confirmation that the order was cancelled. This all happened in less than 30 mins.

That evening, the {$24000.00} was taken from my account. I called within 5 mins of that being posted to my account. Carvana stated that it would take 10-15 business days to refund. I said that is preposterous, but they said that no one there at that time could do anything about it. I called the next morning and a team lead submitted a ticket for expedited refund and told me it would take around 24 hours. It is now 24 hours and the money has not been refunded. What can I do here? I have another car lined up to purchase, but need that money from Carvana to do so.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PR

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute fraudulent information that appears on my credit report pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, and to formally request that this information be blocked or removed. I am including a copy of my identity theft report issued by the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) XXXX as supporting evidence for my c

laim. According to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, when a consumer submits an identity theft report, credit reporting agencies are required to block or delete any information identified by the consumer as resulting from identity theft within four ( 4 ) business days. The following information on my credit report is the result of identity theft and must be blocked : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX As outlined in 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I am formally requesting that this fraudulent information be blocked or removed immediately from my credit report. This information should remain blocked for a period of one year, after which I may request an extension. During this time, no fraudulent data should continue to appear in my file.

I have contacted the credit bureau reporting these fraudulent accounts multiple times, and they have failed to provide me with an effective resolution. This situation is severely affecting me and feels like a never-ending cycle. I do not understand how these accounts can still be reported as mine when I have already proven otherwise.

Please help me by removing these accounts immediately. I am including my FTC report again, hoping that you will make a better and fairer decision in my case. Thank you for your attention.
