Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score — Other problem getting your report or credit score
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I like to check my credit report periodically but cann never gain access via online. I have an established account and every time I try to login regardless of when, it suspends my account after providing my information. This has been going on for a year with XXXX. I always have to call to speak with some during business hours to reset my password. After doing so when I log back in later it's the same thing. The purpose of the online account is to have access at my fingertips. Even when I follow their verification protocols online its says it cant verify me. Its ridiculous not to mention after my account has been frozen they have applied things, which I'm disputing. They need to thoroughly investigate before callously putting things on reports.

Company: PENTAGON FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I have not supplied proof under the doctrine of estoppel by silence. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I presume that no proof of the alleged debt, nor therefore any such debt, in face therefore exist. 

I requested that XXXX XXXX send me a 1099-C for the charge-offs. During the negotiation of my debt, I was assured I would receive a " paid and delete '' letter. I fulfilled my obligations as agreed, but the company refused to remove the negative information from my credit report, adversely affecting my dealings with other companies. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX charged off my account but requested that I continue making payments in the background. I agreed to this arrangement in exchange for them updating my account information monthly and sending me a 1099-C. I later learned from consumer credit counseling that when a charge-off occurs, I am entitled to receive a 1099-C because it does not count as earned income on my part ; rather, it reflects negative information on my credit report. Despite this charge-off, they still indicate that I owe the full amount as if it had never been charged off, which I believe is fraudulent. 

I had an agreement with Pentagon Federal to consolidate my debt into one loan instead of two, and to extend the term of the new loan, provided I made a good-faith payment of {$7000.00}, which I did. However, although they have consolidated the loan, it still shows that I was 30 days late, and two of the loans that were consolidated are still listed as open. I need the 30-day late payment mark removed from my account with Pentagon Federal , as we discussed. Additionally, I would like the credit card account and the loan account to be consolidated and marked as paid in full for the new loan.

Complaint narrative:
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 proce 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.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Equifax for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies in my credit report. Despite my submissions, Equifax consistently respond within 24 hours stating the account is accurate, without providing any evidence of a thorough investigation. This practice violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C 1681i, which mandates a reasonable investigation of disputes. Furthermore, XXXX actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPBs recent administrative proceeding ( File No. 2025-CFPB-0002 ) against them for similar violations. I request that the CFPB take action to ensure Equifax complies with federal law and provides consumers with the necessary proof of investigation.

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information on my credit report that I believe is harming my financial well-being. 1 am aware of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and request a thorough investigation into these inaccuracies, as required by federal law Recently, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau filed a lawsuit against XXXX for its failure to properly investigate consumer disputes, citing " sham investigations '' and other unlawful practices. These practices, as outlined by the CFPB, include : Conducting inadequate investigations that fail to address consumer disputes properly. 
Reinserting previously disputed and inaccurate information without explanation Failing to notify consumers about investigation results effectively : These allegations highlight systemic issues that directly undermine consumer protections and perpetuate the inclusion of inaccurate information on credit reports. I am deeply concerned that my dispute may be mishandled in a similar manner.

Please review the Inaccurate Information being report : 1. A reported balance of {$12000.00} and the absence of accurate credit usage data are incorrect. The balance appears inconsistent with my records and the lack of credit usage details violates the requirements for accurate and complete reporting.

2. The account is listed as closed at the credit grantors requires which is inaccurate. I have no record of this action being initiated by the creditor. I require verification or correction of this claim.

3. There was an account sent to collections yet it was not charged off. The balances do not match. And the collection agency can not provide any proof of owning the debt.
