Summary of the Original Complaint : XXXX. Denial of Credit Application ( Request ID : XXXX ) : Capital Ones Reason for Denial : Activity on a prior Capital One account that is not consistent with their expectations. 
My Position : I have never held a Capital One account, and no such activity exists in my credit history. 
This claim appears to be based on inaccurate or nonexistent information.
