Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, an unauthorized person unfroze my credit via Experian even though my credit was frozen and I have the key. No one contacted me from Experian until a letter was sent to my house on XX/XX/XXXX indicating my credit was unfrozen from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. The letter contains report number XXXX. During that time, several lines of credit were attempted to open and one successfully from XXXX XXXX. I have been unable to log into my Experian account due to unauthorized changes of the password and cell number in the account. Attempts to contact Experian have been useless. There is no phone number on the letter and phone calls do not reach any humans to help resolve my inability to log into my account or reach a fraud department to address the unfreezing of my credit.

Complaint narrative:
RE Complaint XXXX Shellpoint / Newrez is claiming I'm behind on two payments when all payments were sent in electronically. I've provided them with an entire years ' worth of checking account statement and my bank ( XXXX  ) has provided them with a letter showing all payments were made as scheduled and none were ever returned. They are claiming that copies of cancelled checks are needed, when instead we've provided them with electronic payment tracking numbers. They can be no doubt that all payments were made and accepted by Newrez. 

A XXXX search will quickly show that Newrez has made this fraudulent claim with many other consumers as well. The CFPB needs to further investigate this in order to stop it and protect this illegal money grab. 

I'm sending a copy of this to my Congressman, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
XXXXXXXX XXXX  sent a certified check to TD Bank by certified mail on XX/XX/year>. They received it on XX/XX/year> @ XXXX. 
When I checked my TD account it indicated the payment had not been made. 
When I called they said they no longer accept checks by mail and that the check was sent back to where it came from. 
XXXXXXXX XXXX  has not received the check back and neither have I. Neither of us have been notified of his as well. 
How can credit card companies or any other financial organizations refuse to accept checks by mail. Especially if it's a bank certified check?

Company: Harpeth Financial Services, LLC
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute and demand immediate correction of inaccurate information reported by XXXX and maintained by XXXX regarding a charged-off account. 

This account was originally charged off in XX/XX/XXXX, as previously shown on my credit file. However, following a dispute I submitted, the charge-off date was unlawfully updated to XX/XX/XXXX, constituting a clear act of re-aging, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). 

Re-aging an account artificially extends the period that negative information remains on a consumers credit report, which is deceptive, unfair, and expressly prohibited. According to FCRA guidelines, a charge-off is a one-time event, and updating the charge-off date to a later month after a disputewithout any new activity or valid basisis not only inaccurate but misleading and damaging to my credit standing. 

I have not made any payments toward this account, nor has any qualifying activity occurred that would justify resetting the delinquency timeline. As suchXXXX XXXX  and XXXX are knowingly furnishing inaccurate data in violation of FCRA and possibly engaging in willful noncompliance, actionable under 15 U.S. Code 1681n.

I am demanding the following : Immediate deletion of the re-aged charged-off account from all credit reporting agencies, including XXXX.

If deletion is not completed within 15 calendar days, I am requesting that XXXX provide a payment coupon or billing method to allow me to initiate arbitration as per my right under your consumer agreement.

If this matter is not resolved promptly, I will pursue arbitration and file complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and my state Attorney Generals office for further investigation and enforcement. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, AL XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report.

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and and inaccurate information.
