Complaint narrative:
I was very surprised and disappointed to discover unauthorized credit inquiries and incorrect personal information made without my knowledge or approval. Despite my efforts to obtain clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to give the requested information. I am demanding fast action and willingness from the creditors. Creditors must disclose full information about each inquiry, such as the dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, as well as applicable application paperwork and evidence of explicit authorization. Please see the attached documents for my complaint!

Complaint narrative:
I have no debt in collections whatsoever like that and I have never missed a payment. Somehow the company January Technologies has charged my debit card and I reached out to them and asked for proof of debt they said they needed my information to verify. They still have failed to provide the proof of debt or any legitimate reason as to why they had my card information to begin with, I dont even have anything affiliated with them and they charged my card. After talking a few days go by with emails they are now asking me for my Bank and Routing Information to process a refund but I didnt ask for a refund Im asking why they charged my card to begin with. They still have been dodging the question.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be 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.

EQUIFAX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

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!

Issue: Struggling to repay your loan — Problem with your payment plan
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My federal student loans for my under graduate degree are in forbearance.

I am on the SAVE plan & have 99.99 % interest reduction + Administrative forbearance due to the ongoing litigation & legistlative considerations.

Throughout this time, my loan documents show I am accuring interest, when official notices from the government outline no interest accrued or capitalized during the Administrative forbearance for direct federal loans.

All of my loans are federal subsidized & unsubsidized loans, qualifying for the SAVE plan with the return to repayment remediation, which outlines a 99.99 % reduction in interest. 

I received an account statement on XX/XX/year> showing the interest incurred on the student loans.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I made a credit card payment in the amount of {$120.00} to Wells Fargo thru their automated system. The amount was validated by a follow up call to a Wells Fargo Rep. Upon checking my account two days later, I found that Wells Fargo had withdrawn {$1100.00} from my XXXX XXXX XXXX account. I called Wells Fargo to report the error, but they refused to process a return of the unauthorized {$1000.00} withdrawal back to my account. I was told that Wells Fargo would take eleven days to look into reversing the error. It only took two days for Wells Fargo to make the withdrawal, eleven days is too long to get my money back. I do believe that this problem was intentionally created by Wells Fargo to fraudulently booster their year-end performance otherwise known as cooking the books and is a violation of the Unfair Trade Practices Act as well as violation of the Unfair Debt Collections Practices Act. I want my money refunded with interest as well as payment for damages incurred by the loss of funds now unavailable to meet my other outstanding obligations caused by the error of Wells Fargo.

" 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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX XXXX  account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.
