State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC XXXXb regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. CXXXXe 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.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against American Express for refusing to refund the annual fee on my Business Platinum card, which they closed, likely in errorshortly after the annual fee was posted. The account was closed by Amex within 30 days of the fee being paid, and I had no involvement in initiating the closure. Despite the fact that the annual fee was posted recently and I had no opportunity to utilize the benefits of the card, Amex has denied my request for a refund. I believe it is unacceptable to charge and retain a substantial annual fee for an account they themselves terminated without cause. I am requesting a full refund of the annual fee, and if this matter is not resolved fairly, I reserve the right to pursue legal action.

Complaint narrative:
The Equifax credit report inaccurately shows the charge-off for XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/year> with a reported balance of {$2500.00}. This entry is incorrect and does not reflect any valid debt or responsibility. The continued reporting of this charge-off appears to be the result of a data breach or an internal mishandling of my credit information. As per 15 U.S.C. 1681i, it is a violation of the FCRA to include information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable. This erroneous reporting is severely impacting my creditworthiness and financial opportunities. The failure of Equifax to remove such an erroneous charge-off is an infringement of my rights under the FCRA and must be corrected.

Company: TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a written settlement offer and pay-for-delete request to Transworld Systems regarding a collection account they are reporting on my credit file for {$320.00} related to XXXX XXXX. I requested proper validation of the debt under FDCPA Section 809 ( b ), including documentation proving they own the debt and have legal authority to collect it. 

They responded with nothing more than a copy of a final bill from the original creditor and a brief generic letter. This does not constitute proper debt validation. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a second letter clarifying that this was a formal settlement offer and not a dispute, and again requested proper validation or written agreement. They did not respond at all. 

They are continuing to report this account to the credit bureaus without having validated the debt, which violates federal law. I am requesting that this account be removed or that full validation be provided immediately.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This COMPLAINT serves as a formal follow-up to my previous complaint submitted last month regarding inaccurate and damaging information being reported on my credit file. I am requesting your immediate assistance in launching a formal investigation into the reporting of a late payment that I categorically deny. 
I have never been late on the account ( s ) in question. I have always made my payments on time and have maintained a responsible credit history. The inclusion of any late payment ( s ) on my credit report is inaccurate and a clear reporting error, either by your agency or the original creditor. 

This inaccurate information is causing me significant distress and has already resulted in a wrongful denial of credit, which was not only financially damaging but personally embarrassing. As you are no doubt aware, credit bureaus are legally obligated to ensure the accuracy of consumer data under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance : {$49.00} Date Opened : XX/XX/year> ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Balance : {$30.00} ; XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX Date XXXX. 

Und

er 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( a ) : ( 1 ) The banking system depends on accurate and fair credit reporting. Errors disrupt system efficiency and damage consumer trust. ( 3 ) Consumer reporting agencies have a critical duty to properly assemble and evaluate information on consumers. 

Given that the reported late payment is erroneous, I am formally requesting that : A full reinvestigation of this item be conducted in accordance with the FCRA. 
The inaccurate late payment entry be permanently removed from my credit report. 
My credit file be updated to reflect my accurate payment history. 
Please consider this a formal dispute under the FCRA. I respectfully request that you provide written confirmation once this error has been investigated and removed.

Complaint narrative:
This is my final notice regarding your ongoing noncompliance with federal credit reporting laws. I previously disputed the accuracy and legitimacy of several items on my credit report, yet your agency has failed to act in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ).

Your violations include : Failure to validate the debt as required under 15 USC 1692g ( Section 809 ( b ) ). 
Continuing communication after a certified cease-and-desist request, violating 15 USC 1692c ( Section 805 ( c ) ).

Harassment under 15 USC 1692d ( Section 806 ).

Recently, I received notice that your investigation was complete, but the disputed accounts remain on my credit report. These accounts are not only inaccurate but were never authorized by me. No valid contract exists, and I have not provided any written consent for the reporting of these accounts, as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681b.
