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

Complaint narrative:
I mailed 2 disputes to the 3 credit bureaus last year on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. This year, I mailed 2 more disputes on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. As of XX/XX/XXXX I have yet to receive one single response to the dispute letters I mailed out from XXXX, Equifax, or XXXX, with 1 exception. XXXX sent me a letter saying that they applaud me for working on my credit but, they don't believe that the dispute was sent from me... who else would it be sent from. I'm tired of these stall tactics, these companies are blatently violating the FCRA law.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I used Paypal to send money for a product/service I thought they were selling. They made me believe they were having issues with one account to receive the money so they gave me multiple other accounts to try and said they would refund my money. The person I sent this money had multiple accounts but I believe is the same person. They scammed me into thinking I was getting a product or service that I never received. I believe the accounts associated that I have sent money to have illegal activity associated with them and I believe they are committing fraudulent activity. What steps can I take to help investigate them and or try and get a refund?

Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX my identification and all of the contents of my wallet were destroyed in a car fire. Monday, XX/XX/XXXX, I went to the Regions Bank branch in XXXX XXXX XXXX where I received my replacement debit cards, made a deposit and a withdrawal using my temporary ID and answering identifying questions regarding my account and had no issues at all. 

Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX, I went to the Regions Bank branch in XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. to make another withdrawal in the same amount as the day before. The teller, XXXX XXXX, told me that I was not allowed to do that without a photo ID. I explained to him that I had just done the same thing the day before at a different Regions Bank branch and offered to answer any identifying questions that he may have regarding my account. Additionally, I had my son text me a picture of my current passport showing my photo, name and current address. At which point he instant messaged the branch manager, XXXX XXXX and explained to her the situation. I asked XXXX to speak to the manager. He informed me that the manager responded that she was busy on a business meeting and did not have time to speak with me. I told XXXX that I was a XXXX-year customer ( I opened my first account in XXXXXXXX XXXX in XXXX ) of Regions Bank and no business meeting that XXXX XXXX was on was more important than her customer. Inevitably, I knocked on the manager 's door to get additional customer courtesy/professionalism from the branch manager. Without fully acknowledging the situation or show any empathy for my situation, she denied my request to withdraw my funds from my checking account. Furthermore, the entire time that I was in the bank her back was to the main lobby so she was unaware of what was going on in the branch. 

I left and returned with my burnt drivers license and passport. I spoke to XXXX again and explained to him that I too am in banking. I am the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX for a bank and presented him with my business card and educated XXXX on in a situation where a customer cant provide a photo ID how he should handle it. 

The branch manager 's lack of customer care, professionalism and general banking knowledge didnt warrant me interacting with her again. I explained to XXXX that I would be filing a formal complaint with the CFPB.
