Getting a credit card
Application denied
First off on the IKEA site if you wish to make application for an IKEA credit card ( which is a commenity bank credit card ) the message is the site is under construction and application needs to be made at an IKEA location. I drove to IKEA and customer service was not able to take an application. I took care of it via a phone call to commenity while I was at the IKEA store. I told them I had a freeze on my credit reports and they needed to contact me on the phone number to confirm my identity. I was told they did not do this and I needed to remove the freeze. I made application on XX/XX/XXXX. I removed the freeze with an end date of XX/XX/XXXX. ( FYI the freeze is still removed as of XXXX XXXX 2022 ) On XX/XX/XXXX I called Commenity bank to hear if the application had been approved and to let them know the freeze was going to be reinsatlled the following day. They were unable to give me a status on the application. My scores were well over 800 at the time. 100 percent of full payments made on time for all of my accounts over the past 25 plus years. I received a letter stating they did not approve the application due to inabiility to verify previous credit report. letter was dated XX/XX/XXXX. They NEVER ran a credit report with XXXX so how can they deny the application? I made 9 calls to commenity XXXX XXXX XXXX and was on hold for over half an hour each time trying to get this corrected

Incorrect information on your report
Account status incorrect
I have had issues with this company since the card was opened. When I submitted my payment the first time back in XX/XX/XXXX, the company held my payment and then stated that the information for my account was incorrect and came back as insufficient funds and they charged me a fee for the transaction. I submitted the payment again and the same thing happened. I called the company and gave them the same bank information that Id been using and they didnt have any issues processing the payment. I attempted to submit a payment again in XX/XX/XXXX and the same thing occurred. They said that the account information was incorrect and that it came back as insufficient funds and I was charged a late fee. Called the company again and didnt have any issues processing the payment with the same information I was using online. I pulled my credit report to see how things were reporting with this account and saw that they had closed the account. I called to inquire why my account had been closed and was told that it was because of my payments being returned. I was told that after 3 successful payment submissions that the account would be reopened. I called to submit my payment in XX/XX/XXXX and was told by a customer representative to submit it online. The same issue happened. I ended up having to call back. Same thing occurred for XX/XX/XXXXand ended up submitting two payments through a representative. I was informed that because I submitted two payments for both XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, that my next payment wasnt due until XX/XX/XXXX. I submitted a payment at the beginning of XXXX online. I woke up today to see that the closed account is reading 30 days past due. I am furious about this as this has dropped my score significantly and I am currently in the process of buying a home and will not qualify now. I was specifically told by a customer representative that the next payment was due in XX/XX/XXXX so my credit report should not read 30 days past due. I am prepared to pursue legal action with this company if this situation is not rectified.

Attempts to collect debt not owed
Debt is not yours
Cedars Business Services , LLC has sent me multiple harassing text messages regarding a debt purportedly owed to the city of XXXX. I have never traveled to XXXX or purchased anything from the city. They have texted from numerous phone numbers, which I have repeatedly blocked. In many of these messages, they illegally fail to identify themselves as debt collectors. I think some of the communications may have been sent outside the hours prescribed in the fair debt collection practices act.

Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Investigation took more than 30 days
XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX Account XXXX Please correct this inaccurate information on my credit report. I recently pulled my credit report from your Bureau and my attorneys and I had a chance to go over my credit report and in amazement, that you have decided to report me 120 days late on this account in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately disputed this information with XXXX XXXX XXXX and the results of the investigation came back " verified ''. Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously " verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of " records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. ( 6 ) Failure to transmit the statement required under section 1637 ( b ) of this title to the last address of the obligor which has been disclosed to the creditor, unless that address was furnished less than twenty days before the end of the billing cycle for which the statement is required. ( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the Bureau. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts. ( b ) Reports by creditor on delinquent amounts in dispute ; notification of obligor of parties notified of delinquency If a creditor receives a further written notice from an obligor that an amount is still in dispute within the time allowed for payment under subsection ( a ) of this section, a creditor may not report to any third party that the amount of the obligor is delinquent because the obligor has failed to pay an amount which he has indicated under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, unless the creditor also reports that the amount is in dispute and, at the same time, notifies the obligor of the name and address of each party to whom the creditor is reporting information concerning the delinquency. ( c ) Reports by creditor of subsequent resolution of delinquent amounts A creditor shall report any subsequent resolution of any delinquencies reported pursuant to subsection ( b ) to the parties to whom such delinquencies were initially reported. 1666b. Timing of payments ( 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. Because I take my credit very seriously, I contacted every name and account that was listed on the report. I was again very shocked by the multiple names, account numbers and figures. Included with this letter, is every letter written to those who have hampered my ability to obtain credit. I believe that any judge that looks over the report would agree that it is a violation of both the FCRA, CCPA and FACTA. The following accounts were listed on your report and I have demanded from them a full accounting and XXXX years worth of records to see if their accounts were in violation of the FAIR CREDIT BILLING ACT ( FCBA ). We also demanded signed contracts, agreements or any legal paperwork that would tie us to the following accounts. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct an investigation on this account if I request it. I DEMAND to see all 100 % verifiable proof that I was indeed Verifiably late on these accounts and the creditor fulfilled its obligations under ( FCBA 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) ), As I was never notified of a billing delinquency on my accounts, which the creditor must do under section ( FCBA1666 ( b ) ( 6 ). I DEMAND to see proof that I was mailed my statement to the correct address notifying me of both payment due date and delinquency of payment on the account. If you can not provide 100 % Verifiable proof and proper documentation that the CREDITOR fulfilled its obligations under the ( FCBA ) and ( FCRA ), I therefore demand these late payments be removed from my account or I will be forced to be in contact with the Attorney General of my State and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I therefore am submitting my written request to you to conduct an investigation. Per the FCRA, you have 30 days to conduct this investigation and respond to my request. If you do not respond within this time period, per the FCRA, you must remove this negative information. Thank you for your time, XXXX XXXX SS # : XXXX Date of Birth : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Iowa XXXX

Debt collection
Credit card debt
Written notification about debt
Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Around XX/XX/XXXX I opened a credit account with the Army & Force Exchange Service ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). The account was initially in good standing but was eventually charged off. Of course I was aware of the debt but was unable to pay due to my financial circumstances. I never received any debt collection notices from AAFES. I am a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX veteran and I receive benefits from the VA and social security benefits. When I began receiving social security XXXX benefits in XX/XX/XXXX, AAFES began garnishing {$140.00} a month from my pay and never sent me any notice or statement. I had to contact them to receive a statement. Since XX/XX/XXXX, I have not received any correspondence from AAFES. According to the only statement I received my initial balance was {$2700.00}. Between the date of the initial balance and XX/XX/XXXX AAFES has charged me close to {$3300.00} in interest charges. I contacted AAFES to attempt to settle this account on XX/XX/XXXX and was told by the representative to email back on XX/XX/XXXX to see what can be offered. I explained the desperate situation I was in with my family and finances and that it was urgent that this account be settled. I waited as instructed and then was told by the initial representative and a member of management that they will not offer a settlement on my account because they are receiving treasury offset payments ( that guarantees collection of the total balance ). As stated previously, I am a XXXX veteran on a fixed income and the unfair collection of this debt is creating a hardship on me and my family. It is also absurd to be collecting over {$3000.00} interest charges which will continue to accrue while collecting my treasury payments. I made several attempts to contact this company and they refused any resolution.

Few Months ago I moved into a new home and I Updated my mailing address with every one, on XX/XX/2018 around XXXX XXXX I received a call I have a past due account on XXXX XXXX which I do not use that often I did explain I just moved to a new address and I never received a bill or statement from XXXX I provided them with my address I asked for a copy of the statement to be mailed to me I asked not to put me on paperless statement. I thought the problem was taking care off. till my wife found out they are reporting her being late on the payment for more than 60 days and they are reporting me as well. we contacted them we asked them to remove the wrong false information about my wife as she is not the owner of this card she did not use it and the charges do not belong to her they decline our request they inform us they are allowed by law to do that but they did not share which law they are talking about. I explained to them it seems as they did not send the statement to me I explained to them that they contacted me on XX/XX/2018 I paid over the phone to make the account current and I was waiting for the hard copy statement to check the charges i questioned them why they collected payment from me and reported me the same day me and my wife. they said because maybe the payment took more time to post to the account!!! I paid them over the phone so the account could become current and I avoid any late charges or any problems but they still reported me late on payment which reduced my credit score more than 40 points and that will cause me and my business too much harm. they refused to remove the wrong reported information, I paid the account in full over the phone I closed it and I asked them to remove negative information about me and my wife they declined our request.

I, XXXX XXXX XXXX, am verifying that this is XXXX XXXX XXXX, and there is no need to ask for validation. RE : You violated the United States Code Law 15 U.S Code 1681 a ( 4 ) Consumer Right to privacy You are reporting fraudulent accounts that aren't actually mine, which is an infringement of my privacy. Congress said I have the right to decide what I deem private. I deem my hard inquiry and account information to be private and I DO NOT WANT THIS INFORMATION SHARED ON MY CREDIT REPORT. FDCPA 807 misleading false reporting THE INFORMATION YOU ARE REPORTING WOULD LEAD A FUTURE CREDITOR TO BELIEVE I APPLIED FOR ALL THESE INQUIRIES & accounts, when in reality it wasn't me, it was a scammer. Reporting these false things is very misleading. You are in violation because you did not witness me sign for these inquiries or accounts, so you can't actually verify that they are accurate, but yet you still reported these things to my credit report which goes against the FCRA laws for FAIRNESS. 15 USC 1681 n Civil liability for willful noncompliance You willfully accepted this credit information about me without verifying with your own two eyes that it was me who applied for this credit. Willful compliance is punishable up to {$1000.00} per violation. 18 U.S. Code 1028A - Aggravated identity theft You shared my information with numerous creditors without getting my consent first. you are criminally liable for aggravated identity theft which is punishable for up to 2 years. 15 U.S. Code 6802 ( b ) 1 ( ) ( a ) ( A ) ( B ) ( C ) - Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information DIDN'T DISCLOSE TO ME THAT I HAD THE RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THIS INFORMATION BEING SHARED. THAT WAS VERY deceptive OF YOU. You never explained to me that I can exercise a nondisclosure option. I feel like my consumer rights have been violated, and I have been taken advantage of. FDCPA 8012 furnishing deceptive forms You furnished these inaccurate inquiries and accounts as if they were accurate when they were never validated according to GAAP, so you don't even know if these accounts are accurate, but yet you still took it upon yourself to report this inaccurate information. Also, you reported that I owe a 'debt ', but nowhere on my credit report do I see a Negative balance, ( I don't see a negative sign in front of any numbers, only positive ). By you telling me I owe a " debt '', but reporting positive balances to my credit report is very deceptive. 15 U.S. Code 1692f. Unfair practices A debt collector may not use unfair or unconscionable means to collect or attempt to collect any debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct a violation of this section : ( 1 ) The collection of any amount ( including any interest, fee, charge, or expense incidental to the principal obligation ) unless such amount is expressly authorized by the agreement creating the debt or permitted by law. There is no law that says I have to pay a bill. ( 8 ) Using any language or symbol, other than the debt collector 's address, on any envelope when communicating with a consumer by use of the mails or by telegram, except that a debt collector may use his business name if such name does not indicate that he is in the debt collection business. This company sent letters to me with a LOGO on it instead of their address. That is a SYMBOL that they are a debt Collection business. 15 U.S. Code 1602 - Definitions and rules of construction ( e ) The term " person '' means a natural person or an organization. ( f ) The term " credit '' means the right granted by a creditor to a debtor to defer payment of debt or to incur debt and defer its payment. Under 15 USC 1681s-2 this agency is in violation because they furnished information relating to me to the consumer that was inaccurate. I told them that this was inaccurate and they still reported it to my credit report. I AM THE ORIGINAL CREDITOR AND I DO NOT GRANT YOU THE RIGHT TO DEFER ANY PAYMENTS TO ME. 15 U.S Code 1681 a ( 4 ) Consumer Right to privacy You are reporting very private matters on my credit report. The FCRA says that the consumer has sole say so over matters I deem to be private to me. I happen to find matters about where I APPLIED TO, AND WHO I " OWE '' MONEY TO, to be very private. By you sharing this information, I have developed a very bad Paranoia that I have to take medication for. You are liable for all damages that I suffered because of your illegal activities. FDCPA 806 harassment in abuse I feel very harassed and abused by your actions. I already contacted the creditors and told them that these accounts were inaccurate, but they still reported negatively to my credit report without my consent. Every time I log in and check my credit report and see these inaccurate items on my credit report, I feel much abused. Creditors keep calling and sending letters to me about these mysterious " debts ' that are not validated by the original creditor, which makes me feel very harassed. Section 1581a ( 3 ) defines Identity Theft as fraud committed using identifying information of another person. These creditors illegally obtained my information without my true consent and they obtained credit from other financial institutions using my information. This is identity theft. 15 U.S. Code 1692b ( 2 ). Acquisition of location information Any debt collector communicating with any person other than the consumer for the purpose of acquiring location information about the consumer shall- ( 2 ) Not state that such a consumer owes any debt ; but yet these debt collectors contacted these third-party credit reporting agencies with my information including my address ( location ) and they told them I owed a " debt '' that they reported to my credit report illegally. 15 U.S. Code 1666b. Timing of payments Nowhere in the TILA, FCRA, FDCPA does it define a Late Payment, but yet you are reporting " late payments '' to my credit report. that is very inaccurate and deceptive. Let 's not forget, it is your job to only report accurate Information. You are breaking FCRA LAWS. 15 U.S. Code 1605 - Determination of finance charge 15 USC 1605 defines a finance charge as the sum of all charges in a consumer credit transaction. 15 USC 1692d ( 1 ) A debt collector may not engage in any conduct the natural consequence of which is to harass, oppress, or abuse any person in connection with the collection of a debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct is a violation of this section : ( 1 ) The use or threat of violence or other criminal means to harm the physical person, reputation, or property of any person. This bad debt that is furnished to my credit report is ruining my reputation, and it is defamation of character. attached my consumer report as an exhibit. 15 U.S. Code 1692j -Furnishing Certain Deceptive Forms I am the original creditor. I am not participating in this collection of debt, so any contract that I signed is a violation of 15 USC 1692j 15 USC 1692h- Multiple Debts If payments were made on an alleged debt that was not valid. I request the return of those payments to be mailed to me by check. 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of debts 1 am the original creditor, ONLY I CAN VALIDATE ANY DEBTS. I do not validate these debts or accounts. You tried to trick me into thinking you are the original creditor when in reality, ONLY I CAN EXTEND CREDIT so therefore I am the original creditor. These debts don't exist, they must be removed. 15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports ( a ) In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. Under 15 U.S Code 1681b permissible purposes of consumer reports I never gave you any written consent to report anything on my consumer report no consent is identity theft. I, XXXX XXXX XXXX, the natural person did not consent to, authorize nor benefit from any of the following inquiries OR accounts. They are inaccurate, please block and remove them. I already filled out FTC reports # XXXX, which is attached. My identity was stolen and fraudulent inaccurate accounts were applied for in my name without my consent.

According to FCRA 605B this information must be blocked immediately until the investigation is over. Also 15 USC 1681n defines Civil liability for willful noncompliance in the case of liability of a natural person for obtaining a consumer report under false pretenses or knowingly without a permissible purpose, actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or {$1000.00}, whichever is greater ; I will accept payment in the form of a check.

Improper use of your report

Investigation Request Letter To Whom It May Concern : I received a copy of my credit report with the intention of trying to improve my credit and take care of my responsibilities and noticed a few accounts that I wanted a little more explanation on. I am not saying they are reporting right or wrong. I am just saying that I am not 100 percent sure if they are. I also read something called the Fair Credit Reporting Act where it said by law, I had the right to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate. Some of the people reporting things on me, I have never heard of which made me write to you all. Are you familiar with something called 15 U.S.C. Sec. 168li ( a ) ( Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. )? I heard that if you can't provide proof, these accounts must be deleted. Well, I want these accounts deleted if they are not 100 percent right and correct. So, could you please check on these and get back to me? I saw on a Credit Site and Board where this lawyer said you have 30 days to complete this investigation. Please investigate the following accounts and remove them if anything is missing or not correct on them. I demand the following accounts be verified or removed immediately. XXXX Account # XXXX Validate Account *XXXX Account # XXXX Validate account I also read where I can get the updated report after you investigate this from the XXXX XXXX XXXX. Could you please send it to me? Also, please let me know who had access to my file as well. I want the investigation outcome to be sent to my address I put on the from area. Thank you for your time and help in this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

The disputed account had an incorrect date opened. No account number. Inaccurate first date opened. Not only did Experian fail to delete the disputed account due to these errors, they also failed to properly validate the account per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681. The dispute was simply " rubber stamped '' verified. This Blatant violation of the law will result in seeking legal action.bought on by me if this can not be rectified.

I had deposited a check for an insurance claim and didnt know that the wrong check was sent to me, leaving me with a huge negative balance of course I spoke to my bank explaining the check I received was to be sent to the towing company and they got my check. This was going to take some time to clear up but Im was not trying to accrue all the NFS fees and I had my stimulus checks to deposit but wasnt going to if they couldnt get the NFS fees removed. They agreed and everything was great. Until they literally just ripped out {$760.00} out of my account a whole month later screwing up my account and money! They refused to give my money back and I cant understand how they can do that!

I called your department after I purchased a credit report with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. After receiving a copy of my report, I saw some UNVERIFIABLE information that on my personal profile, I noticed that there was CHARGE OFF account on my credit report. This is disappointing because I have been paying XXXX XXXX to get a report every month and I have been disputing fraud accounts on my credit report all this time on my personal profile but still youre not taking any actions. One of your staff told me to write a letter and attach a copy of the identity theft report ( FTC report # : XXXX ). I have never with these accounts listed below, so please help me remove this charge off from my personal profile. A copy of my XXXX XXXX, drivers License, and SS Number are all included in this written request. Please help me resolve this issue as soon as possible. I found that under section 605b ( a ) Experian shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt and it requires the following documents and statement to remove the disputed accounts on my file : ( 1 ) Appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) A copy of an identity theft report ; ( 3 ) The identification of such information by the consumer ; and ( 4 ) A statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given t hat term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) That alleges an identity theft ; ) ( B ) That is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) The filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$1300.00}.

Struggling to repay your loan
Problem lowering your monthly payments
I refinanced my private and federal student loans through Earnest. I feel the company took advantage of me by knowing my expenses and monthly income and charging me a very high monthly rate. Right now the amount I am expected to pay is 30 % of my monthly income which is very hard for me to afford. I have contacted them numerous times in which they only gave me forbearance for 3 months which does not solve my long term problem. This student debt is a heavy burden on me and it takes most of my monthly income leaving me just being able to pay my bills and barely afford to live at a normal means. They have offered me no other options besides this 3 month forbearance or acquiring a whole new loan that only lowers my monthly payments by {$100.00} and increases my total loan by {$30000.00} more.

Problem with fees charged
this relates to Honda Financial Services for my lease of a XXXX XXXX XXXX. My account now shows a fee for {$430.00} online. There is no explanation there for the fee. I got a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX saying that they paid a traffic or parking violation on the vehicle for {$200.00} ( no info on the rest of the amount ). I never got any such a violation. I have had this before on my last XXXX XXXX lease, where I called and complained several times but got no relief and I could not fight back because they would call the lease, add tons of interest and penalties ( also without explanation ) and threaten my credit rating. I paid hundreds of dollars on that lease to avoid trouble.I don't want to get hit again. Also they must do this to all vehicle lessees, hurting hundreds of people who can't fight back. What happened then, and I think now, is I drove through electric toll booths without XXXX or other automatic payment, and you can't pay with money anymore, they take a picture of your plate and send the toll bill. But the toll authority sends the bill to the registered owner of the car, that's XXXX, not me, the driver. I never got the bill. Honda doesn't forward the bill to me or tell me about it. And they don't pay it when due, so it accrues hundreds of dollars of fines from the toll authority. By the time Honda pays it, it's hundreds. Then Honda bills me for the toll and all the penalties. If they sent me the bill, I'd pay it right away, or if Honda pays it right away and then bills me the original amount I'd gladly pay it. but this could cost me thousands of dollars for all the times I went though tolls. Also the only way to communicate with Honda Financial is by mail. they don't have email or a way to message on its website! There is a phone number, but it's a scam. I've waited over an hour on hold before giving up, nobody answers or wait times are often an hour or more.It 's a nightmare.

Bank of America - XXXX, Fl On XX/XX/2021 I deposited {$8500.00} into the ATM machine ( see attached. ) I counted it out in front of the ATM camera. I had a total of XXXX {$100.00} bills. I was paid cash from a family in which I directed a lengthy intervention on several struggling family members. I practice XXXX and this is something that I do on a regular basis. The fact that I was paid in cash is quite common if you would take the time to look through my account, you can see multiple cash deposits. In the middle of the deposit, the machine stopped working and I was given a message to report the issue to a one 800 number, which I did. I was given a temporary credit from Bank of America for the {$8500.00} pending the results of an investigation. On XX/XX/XXXX, the investigation outcome found that the ATM machine was short {$1900.00} and the initial credit was reversed causing the money to be deducted from my personal bank account. Since I never deposited anything except {$100.00} bills, it is more than obvious that I did not receive the investigation I deserved. I have asked for all the documents that they used to make this decision on multiple occasions and I have been told there were no official documents to share that it was a decision made by an " internal fraud department. '' BOA has not been willing to release any information about the investigation and have admitted to not reviewing any footage from the ATM machine. BOA has stated I have no recourse and are unable to reopen the investigation, so basically I just have to accept the decision. I have since filed a police report. I worked with a very good detective for a couple months and she was unable to get anywhere with the case. This was her final response, " Unfortunately this case has been reviewed by myself and my supervisor and its been determined that no crime has been committed by an actual person. We can't press charges against an entire company. I know you spoke before about suing Bank of America and I definitely think that is your best option and a very good one. This entire situation is extremely unfortunate especially with you being a long term customer of theirs. I wish there was more I could do for you. I am so sorry this happened. '' It is absolutely unacceptable that the ATM machines that they use belong to a third-party. I have always assumed the ATM machines belong to Bank of America. What's more disappointing, is that they have been unwilling to advocate for me hey single mom and small business owner, to ensure that my money is protected. You are my last hope. At this point Bank of America has completely close the issue and refuses to discuss it with me. Thank you for creating this platform that allows me to be heard.

Problem with a company's investigation into an existing issue
Investigation took more than 30 days
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX SSN : XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to file a formal dispute regarding multiple inaccuracies and unauthorized inquiries present on my credit report. The violations I've identified fall under various consumer protection laws, specifically the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), Identity Theft Laws, Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), and applicable state consumer protection laws. Details of the Violations : Inaccurate Reporting - XXXX XXXX ( Account Number : XXXX ) : I am deeply troubled by the inaccurate reporting of my payment history on account XXXX. I can affirm with utmost certainty that this account has never been paid late. This erroneous information has severely impacted my credit profile, causing immense distress and hindering my financial prospects. This violation is in direct contravention of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 1681s-2, which stipulates the responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies. Unauthorized Credit Inquiries- Multiple Creditors ( Various Account Numbers and Inquiry Dates ) : I have encountered unauthorized credit inquiries from numerous entities, including XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX These inquiries were conducted without my consent or knowledge on various dates, infringing on my privacy rights and tarnishing my creditworthiness. This violation runs afoul of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 1681b, which outlines the permissible purposes of consumer reports. Reporting Inaccurate Account Information - XXXX ( Account Number : XXXX ) : The account information provided by XXXX is questionable and unclear. The lack of clarity surrounding this entry on my credit report raises concerns about its validity, further undermining the accuracy of my credit profile. This violation is contrary to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 1681e, which addresses false or misleading representations in credit reporting. Reporting Inaccurate Personal Information ( Address ) - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : The inclusion of inaccurate personal information, specifically addresses that I have never resided at, has led to confusion and a gross misrepresentation of my credit history. These inaccuracies need immediate rectification to restore the integrity of my credit report. This violation contravenes the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 1681i, which outlines the procedure in case of disputed accuracy. Personal Impact : These violations have had a devastating impact on my life. The errors and unauthorized inquiries have caused emotional distress, making it difficult to secure favorable interest rates on loans, obtain housing, and access necessary financial services. The emotional toll of these inaccuracies can not be overstated, as they have hindered my ability to provide for my family and plan for our future. The distress and frustration I experience whenever my credit report is evaluated are immeasurable and detrimental to my overall well-being. Requested Action : I implore the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to enforce the legal protections afforded by the Fair Credit Reporting Act and other relevant consumer protection laws. I kindly request that the creditors involved rectify these violations by : Promptly investigating and correcting the inaccuracies in my payment history with XXXX XXXX ( Account XXXX : XXXX ). Removing unauthorized credit inquiries from my credit report, as listed above. Clarifying and verifying the information associated with the XXXX account ( Account Number : XXXX ). Swiftly removing the inaccurate addresses, specifically XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, from my credit report. I am seeking a fair and just resolution to these issues, ensuring that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history and responsible behavior. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will champion my cause and work towards the removal of these unverified accounts, thereby restoring my financial dignity and peace of mind. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

They have been doing this for a few years but I never noticed because it was a very small amount ( 1 or 2 cents ) but now that I have more money with wells fargo these interest payments are upwards of XXXX dollars a month. I have tried contacting them several times and I get the round around. They tell me that the " executive office '' has to resolve this and no one that I can get a hold of can help me. I did receive one call from the " executive office '' and they told me that I signed a paper authorizing wells fargo to remove the interest from my account back in 2011. This does not make sense to me and I'm afraid this is an illegal activity and they are using a phony excuse that I singed some paper way back when. I have asked them to stop taking the interest out of my account but to no avail

Opening an account
Didn't receive terms that were advertised
I have had a Citi credit card for many years. Apparently because of this I was chosen to be targeted with an offer to open a online Citigold checking account with a Debit card attached to the account, with the offer of providing me with a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX bonus if I completed what they referred to as " simple '' steps. Within 60 days the first requirement was to spend {$1000.00} on the debit card, which I did despite signing up for the account XX/XX/XXXX and not actually receiving the debit card until XX/XX/XXXX, almost a month later. I called when I never received the card and it was confirmed to me that the time period had started the day I signed up and not the day I received the card. This should have been a sign of misleading business practices, but I decided I would be able to spend the necessary amount in the time I still had left. While I was on the phone asking about the whereabouts of my missing debit card I inquired with the agent about exactly what the other requirements were to receive the miles offered, I told her that I wanted to make sure I was properly completing the necessary steps. I asked if the recurring electrical bill I had set up would suffice and she said of course, that would be perfect. The second requirement was to " perform 1 qualifying bill payment in 2 consecutive calendar months ''. I set this recurring payment up with my local electric company and had the funds set up on autopay to be paid from the Cititgold account. In my statement you can see the funds were taken from the account on XX/XX/XXXX and then again on XX/XX/XXXX ; two consecutive calendar months. Once this was done I called Citigold on XX/XX/XXXX to confirm that I had completed the required steps to receive my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and the representative told me I had not set up the recurring payments correctly, that I needed to set it up on the Citi website and not the way I had done it. I asked her to explain because I could not understand what it was that I had supposedly done wrong. Her explanation left me more confused. I inquired how I was supposed to know how to set up the recurring payments in this specific manner, and that I did not understand, and she said it was in the " fine print ''. I honestly still don't know what I did wrong. I spent {$1000.00} on the debit card in the allotted time period, and I set up recurring payments to be automatically debited from the account, which occurred in two consecutive months, again all within the allotted time period. I find this practice to be purposefully misleading, with the intention of making it almost impossible to complete the tasks required to receive the bonus XXXX XXXX XXXX. From delaying providing the debit card to me, and not being specific as to how to set up recurring payments in a manner they like, and hiding this information in the " fine print ''

On XX/XX/XXXX @ XXXX hours I received a call ( phone # XXXX ) from a man claiming to be XXXX XXXX of Caine & Weiner ( Im guessing a debt collection agency ) & stated they were a contracted company out of the City of XXXX Finance Department. He stated that I had not filed/reported for a business license renewal for the year XXXX. Well Ive never applied for a business license first of all, & secondly while I do in fact run a small business, all of my quarterly income & applicable taxes have been reported & filed with the city. My XXXX is in good standing. I believe he obtained my business name & an old address that I did business out of for less than 2 months possibly from discarded mail from that old location. He stated that if I didnt provide proof of this filing that the $ 3k+ debt would remain in collections. I have already updated my address info with the city regarding my business long before I received this call ( obviously a red flag ) so any legitimate paperwork would have been received at this updated address. At this time, Ive received nothing. I asked where I could send the proof & he gave me an email address of XXXX.

Debt is not yours
On XXXX disputed this bill with Consumer Financial Protection Bureau , and it was removed by Paragon Revenue Group. This bill was re-added to my credit report XX/XX/2021 you on for {$4800.00} and as allowed under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am requesting that you allow me to validate the alleged debt. I am aware that there is a debt from XXXX XXXX, but I am unaware of the amount due and your bill does not include a breakdown of any fees. Additionally, I am allowed under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ( HIPAA ) to protect my privacy and medical records from third parties. I do not recall giving permission to XXXX XXXX for them to release my medical information to a third party. I am aware that the HIPAA does allow for limited information about me but anything more is to only be revealed with the patients authorization. Therefore my request is twofoldvalidation of debt and HIPAA authorization. Please provide breakdown of fees including any collection costs and medical charges. Provide a copy of my signature with the provider of service to release my medical information to you. Cease any credit bureau reporting until the debt has been validated by me. Please send this information to my address listed above and accept this letter, sent certified mail, as my formal debt validation request, which I am allowed under the FDCPA. Please note that withholding the information you received from any medical provider in an attempt to be HIPAA compliant can be a violation of the FDCPA because you will be deceiving me after my written request. I request full documentation of what you received from the provider of service in connection with this alleged debt. Additionally, any reporting of this debt to the credit bureaus prior to allowing me to validate it may be a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which can allow me to seek damages from a collection agent. I will await your reply with above requested proof. Upon receiving it, I will correspond back by certified mail. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

When I attempted to go to the branch to cancel in person, they seemed willing to help, until I mentioned I wanted to cancel an account. Then it was by " appointment only '' with no appointments available without me taking time off work. Meanwhile, despite making it imposible for me to cancel my account, they will still charge me fees for it. By making the process so onerous they guarantee that I'll continue paying them fees.

Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

On XX/XX/XXXX. 2022, I mailed the three credit bureaus a letter of dispute with supporting documentation by certified mail. As of date both XXXX and XXXX XXXX is still processing my dispute. I'm disputing an account reported as a delinquent account. My Experian credit report failed to indicate when account was opened, closed and failure to indicate when account was 30, 60 or 90 days in arrears, only displaying dashes which indicates " Data Unavailable '' preceding " XXXX XXXX " notated the following month. On XX/XX/XXXX Experian sent me an email notification " Dispute Open '' On XX/XX/XXXX I received another email notific3ation " Dispute Results Ready ''. I called Experian Dispute and spoke with a dispute representative on XX/XX/XXXX. She started an online dispute. Again I received an email notification " Dispute Open ''. XX/XX/XXXX another email notification " Dispute Result Ready ''. How could both disputes by mail and phone have the same 24 hour timeframe? Experian reponded the creditor 's information is valid. What information? Only information is balance amount and " Collection ''. Data still remained unavailable with dashes and no information of account open and close dates. I believe no Investigation was conducted by Experian. I'm excerising my consumer right by FCRA " I have the right to dispute incomplete inaccurate and unverifiable information ''. It's my understanding if an dispute is intiated by mail, the process continues in such manner and results returned to me by mail. I am submitting complaint to see statements for the validity of what's reported or have it removed from my report.

Getting a credit card
Application denied
I was denied the credit for the Chase Business Ink card because they said I have a history of delinquency per XXXX with XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2021 ( which I informed them, on XX/XX/XXXX, that this is entirely incorrect and not on my report ). I requested my XXXX report after denial and it too reflects no delinquencies at all. Chase told me I would have to reapply for the card in order be reconsidered. This is something I will not be doing.

Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Hi Equifax, XXXX, XXXX, & CFPB ; I'm a little surprised and shocked that both XXXX XXXXXXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX are still reporting inaccurate, and incomplete information on my credit report, but yet, your agency mentioned on previous dispute results that the dispute has been resolved. How can it be resolved if it continues to report the same previous negative, incomplete, inaccurate, and unverifiable information? For example, still continue to report different dates of DOLA, DLP, DLR, questionable balance, and inconsistent payment history and payment status. Delete for still multiple inaccuracies. It's my understanding from reading the recent articles from the Cfpb website that each of the credit bureaus, Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX relied heavily on template complaint responses instead of providing meaningful and thorough responses to consumers, despite having up to 60 calendar days to respond. What was the method of your investigation from my previous disputes? Who did you talk to? How can you truthfully say that it was verified if all those items are still reporting with multiple inaccuracies and incomplete.

False statements or representation
Attempted to collect wrong amount
On or about XXXX I entered into a program with ( COA ) CLEAR ONE ADVANTAGE to pay off a creditor ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Clear one made a settle agreement with XXXX in the amount of {$5700.00} with fees included of {$3400.00} for a total of {$9100.00}. I have been paying {$250.00} per month from XXXX to today which comes to {$4400.00} paid to date. Once I learned that Clear One was only paying the creditor {$10.00} per month I started asking questions, " How much has XXXX been paid and how much was COA was paid in fees ''. I logged into my account but was unable to find much information. I did find a vague Activity Statement but it did not explain what was going on. I sent emails and made many phone calls also. On XXXX I canceled the program with COA and made a direct payment arrangement with XXXX. According to COA I owe them another {$500.00} in addition to the {$4200.00} already paid. When the fee going to COA was only {$3400.00}. My balance with XXXX still remains, COA took all of the fees up front. I do not agree with how COA does Business I have been cheated. All or most of that money could have been paid to XXXX. I am a XXXX XXXX Veteran on a fixed income, I can't afford to be ripped off.
