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

Complaint narrative:
There are multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that must be removed without delay. Some contain incorrect details that do not match my records, others are entirely unfamiliar, and several have been reported without proper verification. These discrepancies violate the FCRA, which requires all information to be 100 % accurate and backed by legitimate documentation. 

To resolve this matter fairly, I demand that all inaccurate items be permanently removed from my credit report. If the reporting entities can not provide legitimate proof confirming their accuracy, they have no legal right to remain on my file. I expect immediate corrective action to restore the integrity of my credit profile.

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Threatened to sue you for very old debt
Company: HSBC NORTH AMERICA HOLDINGS INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am being harassed by a debt collection company that refuses to identify themselves or provide written validation of the debt. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a threatening voicemail from phone number ( XXXX ) XXXX stating that if they could not reach me at home, they would attempt to contact me at my verified place of employment. They also provided a callback number, ( XXXX ) XXXX, and referenced a case number XXXX XXXX without explaining what the debt was for or who they were collecting on behalf of. 

The caller used legal-sounding terms like dispatch confirmation, issuing agent, and proof of efforts being made to notify you, but gave no written notice or documentation. I believe this is a scare tactic meant to intimidate me into calling or paying. I suspect the debt may date back to XXXX, which would make it time-barred under the statute of limitations. 

In addition to calling me, they also called my husband and left a voicemail, referencing this matter and told him the account number is for XXXX. I looked it up on my email, and it was linked to an old account from XXXX. This is a clear violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), which prohibits collectors from sharing debt information with third parties, including family members.

The callers threat to contact my employer, their vague legal threats, and their harassment of both myself and my spouse are deeply concerning. I have already reported a related issue to the CFPB regarding a separate collector who used similar tactics. I also suspect my personal information may have been compromised in a data breach. 

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate this company for FDCPA violations and take action to prevent further harassment. I am prepared to provide voicemail recordings and all related documentation upon request.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
Experian and Equifax has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit R Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information credit report, leaving inaccurate or unverifiable accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian and Equifax, alleging systemic issues such as failing to forward consumer-provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of dispute outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian and Equifax has neither corrected nor removed disputed items despite the evidence I provided, causing ongoing harm to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove or amend the disputed accounts, as Experian and Equifax inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I made a XXXX payment of {$1000.00}, which was intended for my attorney, XXXX XXXX. However, due to an error, the payment was sent to the wrong recipient. 

Upon realizing the mistake, I immediately contacted Bank of America to request a reversal or assistance in retrieving the funds. Unfortunately, they informed me that they are unable to reverse the transaction. I also reached out to XXXX, but they could not provide a solution either. 

I have since attempted to contact the recipient to request a refund, but I have not received any response. My attorney has also made efforts to reach out to the recipient, but no progress has been made. 

I am filing this complaint because I believe I should be able to recover my funds, especially since this was an unintended transaction. I am requesting the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to investigate this matter and assist in recovering my money. 

I can provide screenshots of the transaction and any correspondence related to this issue upon request.
