Complaint narrative:
My account was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment to be updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

Complaint narrative:
I am failing a complaint against Cash App ( Block , Inc. ) due to inadequate Costumer 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 process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fraud Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress for these violations.

State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a formal complaint against Equifax for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2, by reporting inaccurate and misleading information on my credit report. I am distressed by this damaging information on my credit report. 

Equifax is currently reporting that I owe a balance of {$1400.00} to XXXX XXXX Bank XXXX but this is false and misleading. I received an IRS Form XXXX ( Cancellation of Debt ) for {$1000.00}, which indicates that a portion of this debt was legally canceled and must be reported as taxable income. Under IRS regulations, a canceled debt is no longer owed, and creditors can not continue to attempt collection or report it as an outstanding balance. 
1. Failure to Report Accurate Information ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ) Equifax is knowingly reporting an inaccurate balance, despite the fact that part of the debt was canceled.

2. Failure to Properly Investigate ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ) ) I previously disputed this account with Equifax and asked them to validate this debt properly, yet they failed to correct the information. 

2. Furnishing Incomplete or Misleading Information The reported balance does not reflect the canceled debt, misleading potential lenders and harming my creditworthiness.

Attached to this complaint are : 1. A copy of my Equifax credit report showing the inaccurate balance. 
2. A copy of the XXXX form from XXXX XXXX XXXX confirming cancellation .

3. A copy of my previous dispute letter to Equifax and their inadequate response.

I urge the CFPB to investigate Equifax 's noncompliance and hold them accountable for violating the FCRA. Please confirm receipt of this complaint and provide updates on your findings.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

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 responds 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, Equifax 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) 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.

This failure to comply with your obligations under the FCRA has caused me significant harm, including but not limited to : Denial of credit or loans Higher interest rates on approved credit Emotional distress and damage to my reputation Under 15 U.S.C. 1681o, your agency may be held civilly liable for negligent non-compliance with the FCRA.

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute on XXXX XXXX  report number XXXX due to identity theft and financial hardship being caused by a false negative remark attached to my credit. These negative remarks were removed due to investigation being proven. They were then placed back on my report inaccurately. Since refiling, Experian denied to follow up with the investigation. I was recently notified of the lawsuit filed against this company ( experian ) by the CFPB. They alleged the company of accepting unreliable information, failure to notify consumer dispute results, and inaccurate reporting. This aligns with my situation. Experian has done nothing in attempt to remove nor correct any inaccurate information. I'm requesting this derogatory mark be removed or corrected immediately as its affecting my livelihood, and placing me under financial distress being unable to be approved for housing, auto loans, rental housing, mortgage loans. Experian violates my right as a consumer a well as federal laws.
