Consumer complaint received 2025-07-28 00:00:00
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
You have reported inaccurate and unauthorized accounts on my credit report, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) requiring a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates maximum possible accuracy. These false entries are damaging and unjust, especially since Ive never opened or authorized these accounts. If you fail to investigate and correct this, I may pursue legal action under the FCRA and FDCPA ( 15 U.S. Code 1692e ) for deceptive and misleading reporting.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Payment process
Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
My mortgage with Freedom Mortgage was fully paid off and confirmed closed on [ date ]. Despite this, they withdrew an additional monthly mortgage payment of $ [ amount ] after the payoff. 

When I contacted them, they confirmed I am owed a refund but stated they will only send a paper check through standard mail in 14 days. I requested that the refund be overnighted because my community mailbox is not secure and mail theft is a recurring issue. This means the check is at risk of being stolen, which would delay me even further in receiving my funds. 

Freedom Mortgage refuses to provide any alternative such as expedited delivery or direct deposit. This delay and refusal to accommodate a reasonable request is unacceptable, especially since they were able to withdraw the funds electronically in a matter of hours. I am requesting that Freedom Mortgage immediately process my refund and send it via overnight delivery or another secure method to prevent theft and ensure I receive my funds promptly.

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I previously submitted a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unfamiliar items on my credit report. However, it has now been over 30 days, and I have not received a response. It appears my disputes are being disregarded, which raises serious concerns. Under Section 611 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies are required to investigate disputed items within 30 days. If they fail to do so, these items must be removed from my report.

As more than 30 days have passed, I expect immediate updates to my credit report reflecting the removal of these disputed accounts. Should this not be addressed promptly, I will be left with no option but to pursue legal action to resolve this issue, as the continued inaction has caused significant stress.

Moreover, I was affected by the Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion data breaches, which heightens my concern regarding the security and handling of my personal information.

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: RentDebt Automated Collections, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing a collection account reported by RENTDEBT AUTOMATED COLLECTIONS on behalf of XXXX XXXX ( Account # : XXXX ). The amount of {$300.00} is being reported as past due rent or housing debt. 

I have never been evicted, and no court action has ever been taken against me in relation to a lease or rental agreement. There is no public record, court summons, or legal eviction judgment associated with my name, which proves this debt was not legally adjudicated. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681e ( b ) and 1681i ( a ) ), you are required to ensure the accuracy and verifiability of any data reported. Reporting this as a valid collection implies a legal action occurred, which is entirely false and misleading.

Furthermore, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( 15 USC 1692g ), the reporting agency and collector must provide proof of liability. No such validation has ever been provided to me.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NH

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I pre-ordered the following items from XXXX and paid with XXXX which used my Chase credit card : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX : {$440.00XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( set of XXXX ) : {$24.00} XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX : {$160.00} Total Amount of pre-order : {$640.00} There were problems with XXXXXXXX XXXX  website because of the high flow of traffic, and I was charged twice for this original pre-order mistakenly. 

The same day I made the pre-order on XXXX I found a better deal at a different retailer for the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. I cancelled this part of my pre-order on XXXX : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX : {$440.00} This amount was refunded correctly by XXXX and posted on XX/XX/year> to my Chase account. 

To try to resolve the double charge I talked to both XXXX and XXXX and was told it was a problem with my credit card processor not with them. They told me they had no double payments on their side. I created a dispute with Chase.

Chase agreed the double charge was a mistake and reversed the double charge. But Chase also reversed the legitimate refund of {$440.00} from XXXX from when I cancelled part of the original pre-order. 

I called Chase and was told rudely by their customer service that " This case has been escalated as far as it can go ''. That is what the Accounts Manager I spoke with said every time I asked a question. He refused to answer any questions I had and offered no way to resolve the issue.

Chase forced me to pay {$440.00} for a product that I did not buy. I received no product for that charge. Chase effectively robbed me. I expressed this to the Accounts Manager on the phone and was told " This case has been escalated as far as it can go ''.

I have all receipts and proof to back these claims up.

They never discussed anything with me or my sister about his accounts, well being, or health issues, & took advantage of his lack of understanding normal tasks. Anything changed after the date of the POA was illegal because he couldn't think for himself. Citizens bank should have never allowed her to put her name on his account
