Complaint narrative:
The existence of a derogatory rating on my account is causing me significant concern. I am deeply worried about its potential impact on my credit. It has already resulted in the denial of a recent loan application and an increase in the interest rates on my existing credit accounts. I want to emphasize the severe financial and emotional distress that this negative rating has caused me and will continue to cause until it is resolved.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

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 1681b 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. 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.

I am filing a complaint against Cash App ( Block , Inc. ) due to inadequate customer service and unfair practices, which violate the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). Specifically, Cash App failed to take timely and effective measures to prevent and address fraud on their platform, leaving my account vulnerable and unprotected.

Furthermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress for these violations.

However, I have obtained clear, written confirmation from the relevant court XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that they do not report or furnish bankruptcy proceedings information to credit reporting agencies.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Overdrafts and overdraft fees
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Complaint against overdraft fees no grace period and misleading posting order Hello, I am submitting this complaint against my bank for what I believe to be abusive and excessive overdraft fee charges. Over the past six months, I have been charged 13 overdraft fees, totaling {$450.00}, even on weeks when I was charged multiple times, such as over {$210.00} in fees in just one week. 

The bank never informed me that my account had no grace period. When I asked for clarification, they explained that all weekend transactions are posted on Monday, while deposits and incoming payments are posted only on Tuesday. Because of that, Im charged overdraft fees even when the account would have had sufficient funds on Tuesday, resulting in fees being charged even for a few cents overdrawn. 

I also XXXX the overdraft coverage feature to avoid such situations, yet the bank still allowed transactions to go through and continued charging overdraft fees. 

I believe this is an unfair and predatory practice. I was never properly informed about the posting order or the lack of grace period, and I feel that the system is designed to maximize fee charges, not to protect consumers. I request a thorough investigation and a full reimbursement of the fees charged. 

Account Name : XXXX XXXX Last 4 digits of account : XXXX Main dates : Between XXXX and XX/XX/year> Total overdraft fees charged : {$450.00} Thank you for your assistance.

Complaint narrative:
I tend to keep my balance at XXXX, or either pay it to XXXX near the due date. At the time, I believed my account had a XXXX balance, and was unaware that a XXXX fee was charged to my account from them. As a result, I did not know I had to make a payment and I received a XXXX late payment due to it. When I called them to explain the situation, they told me that they removed the late fee and brought my account current, but I would need to call the credit bureaus to have the late payment removed. Upon speaking to the credit bureaus, I was told that the only way to get the late payment removed was for XXXX Bank to do so. I have been going back and forward since to no avail. I then asked XXXX Bank if they can provide me something in writing stating that they had removed the late charge but they can not.
