Company: Revolut Technologies Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My Revolut account was restricted on XX/XX/year>, without explanation. I contacted support multiple times over the following weeks to ask why my account was frozen and what documents or actions were needed to resolve the issue. Each time I received vague, copy-paste replies with no meaningful updates or solutions. 

On XX/XX/year>, I submitted a formal complaint directly to Revolut. I received a Final Response from a complaints analyst, but it did not explain the reason for the restriction, provide a timeline for resolution, or offer any option to retrieve my funds. Instead, it cited generic regulatory review processes.

As of today, my account remains frozen and I still do not have access to my funds. Revolut has not told me what actions ( if any ) I need to take, and the lack of transparency or resolution is unacceptable.

I am requesting that Revolut be required to either ( 1 ) complete their review and restore access, or ( 2 ) return my funds and close the account if they no longer wish to offer services. This situation is causing financial hardship and ongoing stress.

State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint because there is inaccurate and/or unverifiable information being reported on my credit report by a consumer reporting agency. I recently obtained a copy of my credit report and found one or more accounts that either do not belong to me, are reported inaccurately, or have already been paid in full.

I submitted a written dispute directly to the credit reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically citing violations of 1681e ( b ) for failing to ensure maximum accuracy, and 1681i for not conducting a reasonable reinvestigation within the 30-day timeframe. 

Despite my demand, the inaccurate information remains on my report, and I have not received sufficient verification or documentation ( such as a signed contract or complete payment history ) to justify the continued reporting of the disputed account. I believe this reflects willful non-compliance with the FCRA and is causing me harm.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am filing a formal complaint regarding a credit reporting issue with TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian. My complaint involves a collection account reported by XXXX XXXX on behalf of XXXX. 

On XX/XX/year>, I sent certified dispute letters to all three credit bureaus. In those letters, I included documentation showing that XXXX XXXX XXXXailed to provide proper debt validation under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). The only document they sent in response was a copy of my original contract with XXXX. They did not provide : Proof of assignment or ownership of the debt, Proof of their authority to report or collect it, Any itemized breakdown or statements showing the balance due. 

Additionally, XXXX went bankrupt mid-treatment. I was unable to finish my aligner treatment due to their sudden closure, and they never corrected issues with improperly fitting aligners. 

After their closure, I contacted them and requested a full refund since they could no longer fulfill their end of the agreement. I was told that no refunds would be issued until their bankruptcy was finalized. After the company later updated its website indicating that refunds were now being processed, I again contacted thembut was told I did not qualify and was given no explanation why. This was communicated to me either by XXXX directly or by their financing company, believed to be XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). 

Despite submitting all of this supporting evidence : TransUnion responded via mail on XX/XX/year>, stating the account was verified as accurate, without any acknowledgment of my supporting documents or situation. 

Experian only responded via email, not by postal mail as required. 

Equifax did not respond at all, in violation of the XXXX dispute window required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

I believe the credit bureaus failed to conduct a proper and reasonable investigation, and that this debt should be permanently removed from my credit report. It is based on a contract that was never fulfilled, a refund that was unjustifiably denied, and a collection account that was not legally validated. 

I am asking your office to : Investigate this matter, Hold the credit bureaus accountable for ignoring a legally valid dispute, And compel the removal of the XXXX XXXX item from my credit file. 

I can provide documentation, certified mail receipts, and correspondence upon request. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

_____________________________________________________________________ * * * * IMPORTANT * * * * I HAVE ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION INCLUDING CERTIFIED MAIL RECEIPTS, DISPUTE LETTERS SENT TO ALL THREE CREDIT BUREAUS, AND PHOTOS OF THE UNUSED ALIGNERS, BUT I WAS UNABLE TO UPLOAD EVERYTHING DUE TO FILE LIMITS. I CAN PROVIDE MORE UPON REQUEST.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I paid {$5100.00} to a XXXX company ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX my American Express card for a complete XXXX business setup package. This full package was supposed to include : Visa application and processing XXXX ID setup and medical appointment coordination Personal and business bank account setup Agent support for all appointments and follow-ups Government liaison for the entire business onboarding process Ongoing client service for the setup period The only thing that was delivered was the business license which is one of the earliest and easiest steps of this type of service. As soon as the visa attempt failed, the company abandoned the process completely. They did not support me with XXXX ID, medical, banking appointments, or follow-ups of any kind. They essentially said : The visa was rejected thats it, and treated the rest of the package as complete, which is simply not reasonable. 

To illustrate how minimal their delivery was : this is like hiring a contractor to build your house, paying for a full project including plumbing, electrical, interior, etc., and all they do is file a permit with the city. Then they say We tried but were keeping the full money. Thats how absurd this situation is. 

I disputed the charge with Amex. Amex originally credited the funds back, but then reversed their decision after the merchant claimed the service was non-refundable. I explained clearly to Amex that I wasnt disputing based on refund terms Im disputing because the full package service was not rendered. 

Ive attached a XXXX document showing : The XXXX conversation with the merchant ( showing abandonment of service after visa rejection ) Payment proof Timeline of events Summary of the promised vs. delivered services The Amex messages during the dispute, including a statement from the rep that if the merchant refuses to refund, we cant do much. 

This is a clear example of a service not being delivered as promised, and I am now stuck with a {$5100.00} charge for something that was never fully provided.

Complaint narrative:
These entries remain unverified and questionable. Despite multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies properly investigated and resolved, no meaningful action has been taken. I have submitted all required documentation and followed up repeatedly, yet the errors persist. This ongoing lack of action has caused undue financial hardship and has significantly affected my well-being. The mental and emotional toll of dealing with these unresolved discrepancies has been overwhelming. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report, including the removal of unverifiable or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate steps to verify and rectify these items, as failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law.
