I had a credit card with Capital one that I closed earlier this year. Part of the balance had a 0 % interest rate until XX/XX/17.  Earlier this month I made a {$500.00} payment to pay off the 0 % balance prior to the promotional period expiring. After a few days of making the payment I contacted Capital One to ensure the payment had been applied to the correct balance as I did not want to pay a year worth of interest once the promotional period expired. Long story short, when I called Capital One I was informed that the lump sum payment I made was applied to my other balance and only {$55.00} was applied to the promotional balance. I asked the rep to pay off the promotional balance, but she said she could n't as their policy does not allow them to do that. I asked to speak to a Supervisor. I spoke to two supervisors who told me the same thing. I argued that it was not fair for them to refuse to allocate my payment to my promotional balance in order for them to charge me a years worth of interest come XX/XX/XXXX, but they refused to oblige to my request/demand. In XX/XX/XXXX I enrolled in a Debt Management Plan, and they refused to enroll this card to the program stating the reason being part of the balance had promotional interest on it.

Dispute of Erroneous Business Account Reported on My Credit Report I am writing to formally dispute an account that appears on my credit report, which I believe is inaccurately attributed to me. The account in question is a business account and does not pertain to my personal financial history. I request a thorough investigation into this matter and the removal of the incorrect information from my credit file. 

Below are the details of the disputed account : Account Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX I have no association with the above-mentioned business account. This discrepancy appears to be the result of either a clerical error or misidentification, and its presence on my personal credit report is both misleading and damaging to my credit profile. 

Please complete an investigation into this dispute and provide written confirmation of the results. If the account is found to be in error, I request that it be removed immediately from my credit report. Additionally, please inform me of the steps taken to resolve this issue and the expected timeframe for completion. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your response.

On XX/XX/XXXX I went to purchase a car at XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX Tx. I was pre approved for financing under XXXX/ Santander and decided to use one of their prefer vendors. My deal was approved for financing up to {$34000.00} with an LTV up to 125 % of the deal. I went to the lot on XX/XX/XXXX to inquire regarding a 2013 XXXX XXXX that was price at XXXX $ that was over the XXXX  value of XXXX $ ..Of course, the car was over the LTV of the loan, which then the sales rep needed permission to lower the cost in order for the deal to work. The final cost ended up being XXXX . Upon looking at my sales contract, i notice my interest rate was higher than my original approval. I originally contacted the dealership and was told that it was the right deal and that Santander approved this deal ; there was nothing they can do about it and my only option was to either talk to them about the terms or bring the car back to the lot. Upon calling up XXXX/Santander and receiving a screenshot of my deal from my sales rep that work my deal..I ask the XXXX  rep if they could pull up the approval to my deal that was worked into a contract.To sum it up..there was two applications under my name in XXXX. My original deal ( which was approve ) was scrap in favor of a new deal being created that was more aligned to the dealership profit.There was no permission being given to recreate a new deal or even a need to create another app. I was already approved for a car loan with the terms being given to me by XXXX/Santander. Overall, i will be bringing back the car and unwinding the deal which i told my sales rep. I'm highly upset that even with XXXX/Santander being offer an approval on a deal, would allow dealerships to recreate deals that are favorable for them to bypass the fees attached to the deal in which the dealership has to pay or to front load the deal that would cause a consumer to be very upside down on a car loan. Who knows how many other consumers are affected by this process. Even though my deal is being trash, something has to be done. Consumers are not aware that some dealerships will recreate an entire new deal rather than using the approval deal with that same exact finance company. It's not right, it's not ethical and something needs to be done. This was a complete financial markup/ dealer reserve deal ; a 6 % interest rate markup.

I got subpoenaed by Wells Fargo to go to court over a credit card I had defaulted on. I went to court, but the lawyer from Wells Fargo did not show up and the judge dismissed the case. This happened probably in the middle of 2019. Today I checked my bank account and Wells Fargo had taken {$850.00} out of my account and left me {$100.00} for myself and my XXXX kids to live off of for the next 2 weeks. I called them and told them the case was dismissed, the agent told me they refiled and were granted a judgement against me. She also stated that the subpoena for the second case was left at my door. Which I never received, nor did I receive any letter from them stating that they would start deducting money out of my account, because I would've gone to make payment arrangements. She then told me to contact the law office that handled the case to set up payments, but they couldn't give me any of my money back to live off of in the mean time. I'm going to call them again, I just don't understand how they take however much they want putting me an my family in a hardship. Everything I have researched says the max they can take is 25 % after mandatory deductions. They took way more than 25 %, and next time, a little notice would be greatly appreciated.

I successfully applied to refinance my spouse 's vehicle with Captial One. The company specified that I should continue to make payments with the previous lender as they process the pay off amount with them. The agreement also specified that the payoff amount may change depending on certain factors. We completed our last payment of {$300.00} with the previous company and Capital One provided them with a check for the pay off amount of {$7900.00} according to our statement records. 

Currently our balance with Capital One is {$8200.00}. It seems our last payment with the previous lender was NOT applied to the loan. 

I have contacted Capital One and the representative tried to tell me we should be receiving a refund from the previous lender. However, the previous lender says this is not the case.

In the first week of XX/XX/XXXX, I met with XXXX XXXX, the assistant manager of the XXXX XXXX, Ohio branch of U. S. Bank. I, at the time informed XXXX that my wife XXXX had died on XXXX day and I would need his help to change the accounts to my name. I furnished him with a copy of our wills and gave him a copy of the death certificate so that he could start the procedure of making the necessary changes. Everything was progressing smoothly until XXXX realized that one of the accounts which had been opened by my wife and never used was in her name only. He said that that account would have to be probated to access the funds. I checked with the XXXX County Ohio clerk of the Probate Court and was told that the fees for this would probably be {$800.00}. When I gave this information to the bank, XXXX made some calls and said not to worry and then informed me that he was told that the money would eventually go to the state as unclaimed funds and that I would be able to claim it. 

Since that time, I have on several occasions contacted U. S. Bank customer service to check on this matter and could not get a satisfactory answer on when this money would be given to the state and the account closed. In XXXX I had again called and the individual I then spoke with said that the transfer should have already been made and that he would check on it and call me back. He never called back. In the fall of XXXX, when looking at my latest statement, I noticed that the account in question had been charged a service fee. I stopped at the XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX had been closed ) and spoke with one of the cashier 's who said she would take this up with the branch manager. She called me and said that she was not able to give me a satisfactory answer but would continue to try and find one and call me back in a week or two. Upon visiting the branch she had then informed me that she had not been able to resolve the issue and that they would continue to charge the service fees. 

This institution has been holding on to funds that do not belong to them and are now charging the account [ that should have been closed 5 years ago ] a dormant account fee. This will eventually empty the account and they will then close it. This should be stopped and they should be made to refund the fees that they have unjustly charged, and pay interest on the money that they have unjustly held on too for five years. I cant help but wonder how many other people that they rip-off every day who are in the same or similar situation as I found myself in. It would be interesting to know how big a chunk of money that this thievery amounts to every year.

Recently had a credit report pulled by a loan officer for a mortgage preapproval. I am enrolled in credit check monitoring through my bank. The service is provided by XXXX. However, The report provided the loan officer I am working with by Factual Data contained quite a bit of inaccurate information to include inaccurate credit card balances, mortgage payment amounts, and all 3 credit bureau scores were incorrect.
More specifically, My most recent credit score is above 800 for all 3 bureaus yet Factual Data Bureau Express, shows my 3 scores well below that. Also, it shows credit card balances thousands of dollars more than they actually are. I feel this information could be detrimental in the loan approval process and is very upsetting, as a home purchase is one the biggest decisions one may make in life.
