State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2020, I sent a letter to Transunion about inaccurate and unverifiable items on my credit report. It has been over 2 months and I have not received a response from anyone. I feel like my dispute letters are being ignored. In section 611 ( a ), it plainly says that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. Since it has been over 60 days, these items should be deleted immediately. Please have the inaccurate/invalid accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress this is causing me. I am trying to apply for funding to start my own business but my credit is making the process a lot harder.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Hi, I am complaining about a dispute case I filed with Barclays and the bank 's inability to resolve my disputes after a year despite my repeated calls and report. The amount total is {$1600.00}, which is a huge amount of money! 

I traveled with my Barclays credit card to XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and my credit card was lost at the airport right before my flight back to XXXX. During my flight back, the following fraudulent transactions appeared on my account. 

XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX CASES XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXXXXXX ( This was the only transaction that was solved ) I called Barclays immediately on XX/XX/XXXX after I completed my flight reporting the fraud activities and asked them to dispute these transactions. They have to be fraudulent because I was on a plane when these transactions happened. There was no resolution until now after a year of repeated calls. 

After I called on XX/XX/XXXX, I waited for some time and still didn't see the transactions disputed. To protect my credit score, I paid for my statement balance and hoping they will be returned to me one day. But only 1 transaction was disputed (XX/XX/XXXX XXXX ) afterwards. I don't remember when exactly it was disputed. But the remaining balance is still outstanding. I called in XX/XX/XXXX again and was told to wait for up to 90 days. And on XX/XX/XXXX, when it hits the 90-day mark, I called again and was given a case number XXXX, and then nothing happened. I recently called once again on XX/XX/XXXX, and was given a new case number XXXX. Nothing happened until now. 

I need to get my in total of {$1600.00} back ... please help.

Company: Social Finance, Inc.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
My complaint centers on a " decline '' credit decision by SoFi Lending/Mortgage without notification on the reason for their adverse credit decision. It is my understanding as a banking professional with 12 years of consumer and commercial lending experience that by law ( such as Reg. B, Fair Credit Reporting Act and HMDA ) a federally insured lender must inform an applicant on a credit decision within 30 days of receipt of a complete package and in cases where the credit decision is adverse ( such as a decline ), they must inform on the reason. Thus far no reason has been provided after initially receiving an " approval. '' My emails, voicemail messages and other forms of communication have been ignored. Based on my professional experience and on the fact that I have been approved for the same mortgage request with a different ( local ) lender, some form of bias or other type of discrimination has taken place. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss further. It is my fear that SoFi Mortgage is not abiding by federal regulations.
