Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) 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 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> Subject : Dispute of Unauthorized Collection Account Account Number : XXXX Creditor : XXXX XXXX / XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to formally dispute the collection account from XXXX XXXX ( Account Number : XXXX, reported under XXXX XXXX XXXX, which appears on my credit report. I did not authorize this debt, nor have I had any knowledge or business dealings with this company.

In accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1692c ( c ) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am exercising my rights to dispute this debt and request immediate validation. Furthermore, if this debt has been sold to another company or third party, I am not legally obligated to pay it, as I have no contractual obligation with any third party related to this account. 

Additionally, I did not provide any written consent for this account to be opened, nor did the company provide me with any written consent or verification of the debt. I also have not received a 1099-C form, which is typically required when a debt is forgiven or sold off. The absence of these documents further supports the fact that this collection is not valid, and I request its immediate removal from my credit file. 

Please investigate this matter and provide documentation proving I authorized this debt, or remove this inaccurate collection from my credit report promptly. The inaccurate reporting of this account has negatively affected my credit score, and I expect corrective action in compliance with my rights under the law.

Kindly send written confirmation that the account has been removed from my credit report once the investigation is complete. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — Paying off the loan
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
Copy from company complaint : " This is a formal complaint, which I will also submit to the CFPB. 

Your phone bot is intentionally designed to infuriate and block your customers, preventing them from reaching a human who can actually solve their problems. There is often no way to say " I need something else '' if a customer has unique needs, so you have to lie to talk to a representative, adding further delays. The bot is an endless, infuriating loop designed specifically to prevent any issues from being recorded, logged, and managed as required by law. '' The company is charging for a payoff quote. An official payoff is a legal requirement to sell the property, and therefore, the customer has no way to opt out or avoid this service. This appears to be an abusive act or practice. When attempting to contact the company by phone, there is no clear way to talk to a human representative and the bot can not solve all problems or deal with unique situations. Live chat connected me with someone who first said " I do not see any fee on the account '', then " we can not waive the late fee, '' indicating a complete lack of understanding regarding my issue. 

I will not stand by and allow them to treat their customers this way. This customer service model is despicable.

Company: PENTAGON FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: NE

Complaint narrative:
PenFed {$33000.00} took my original auto contract and changed it without my knowledge. Then they wrote this loan off as a charge off and sent it to collectors knowing the active dispute and fraud they committed was never addressed. Penfed also went into another account of mine and took money to apply to this new forged auto loan which made me delinquent on a smaller secured loan that was almost paid off. I want this Auto Loan removed from collections and closed and removed from my credit report they already got insurance and ruined my credit.

FCRA requires them to prove the validity of this debt and they have yet to do it. Because they know a new auto loan was created and money was moved around to ruin all my accounts.

Complaint narrative:
My accounts 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/updated.

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.

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!
