Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I was on a social media website and seen an ad for a XXXX XXXX  product it was offered to pay shipping only of {$6.00} to try the product. When I entered my credit card information into the system the page automatically cycled through added items to my cart of {$9.00} & {$39.00} and checked me out. I did not receive an order confirmation. I immediately called my credit card company MasterCard/Ulta and advise them what just happened. I told them that I wanted to cancel the charge that I felt like it was a fraudulent action and that I wasnt confident that I was dealing with a real company. Ulta advised me that the charges were still pending they couldnt see anything therefore they couldnt do anything and they had no number or info to provide me at that time. They advised me to call back after the charges cleared and that then they could help me dispute the charges. When I received my next statement there were more charges on my card for an additional amount of {$110.00} and {$110.00} dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX different companies XXXX of them being XXXX XXXX XXXX {$6.00}, {$39.00}, {$110.00} And the other being XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$9.00}, {$110.00} I attempted several times to reach the merchant and request credit on my account that I was not happy with the service I did not receive any product and that I did not know who they were. I never got a order confirmation, I didnt even know who they were. At that point I realized online on my credit card company Ulta I was able to lock my card so I did, to prevent anymore unauthorized charges. When I spoke to someone they were short and rude with me said that I gave them my information and therefore I was being billed for it and since I blocked my card I would no longer get charges. I told them again I did not authorize the purchase, that I was not happy with the service, and that I didnt receive any product and I wanted a refund on my account immediately. Finally on XX/XX/XXXX a lady named XXXX with the collection company advised me that she did credit my account on XX/XX/XXXX for the full amount of {$290.00}. I asked her for a reference number and she gave me # XXXX told me to have a nice day and hung up on me. I have written to UltaXXXX several times and reported all this & called merchant multiple times. To date I still have not received a credit nor gotten resolution. Can not get resolved. Looking for help.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NJ
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
CapitalOne Credit has sold an account to a collection agency for the second time using my name and address knowing full well that this is not my account. Their last collection company filed suit after they were notified that this was not my debt. Now I have a permanent mark on my public records. Afterwards they apologized and pulled the complaint. They then sent me the phone numbers of all the credit reporting agencies and told me to handle it myself.
This is the worst kind of predatory actions, trying to force a XXXX year old senior to pay a bill not owed just to stop the harassment when they have records, letters and recorded calls acknowledging this account is not mine and never has been. They also know that my health is bad and yet went forward to start a new attack.
Capital one has caused me to spend numerous days and hours writing and talking to their agents. They offered me a settlement if I signed a legal document that would have caused me to get a lawyer and cost me more than they offered.
I believe that they want to scare people at any cost to make them pay bills without any regard to whether or not it is their debt. They go after family members through their parents and make up false documents to prove their ( changed notary papers ) illegal activities and have enough Attorneys to get away with it.
They probably will apologize and then go right ahead and sell it to another collection agency in the future, and they know that the only way to stop this practice temporarily is to make people keep spending time and effort explain the same thing again.

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with a representative and got my car payments deferred due to COVID 19. The agent stated they were able to defer my XXXX and XXXX car payments, and that my car note wouldn't be due until XX/XX/XXXX. In XXXX the car was sold to a dealership who paid the car off, XXXX confirmed on XX/XX/XXXX they received the full payment on XX/XX/XXXX to pay the car in full. In XX/XX/XXXX XXXX reported a 30 day late payment to the credit agencies. I called and spoke to a representative on XX/XX/XXXX asking them why this was placed on my credit as there was never a late payment on the vehicle. The representative informed me that she seen where I called in in XXXX for the deferred payments however that agent never completed the setup. I asked well why wasn't I informed or why want any communication sent to me regarding this matter, the agent stated it was all set up. I also told the agent if what you are saying is true then the payment for XXXX and XXXX were late as the car not is due the XXXX of each month and they are reporting my XXXX payment was the only late payment. She informed me that she shows its inaccurate and they are going to get this updated immediately. I have spoken to countless representatives and was hung up on by a manager.

I have not had an issue with XXXX and would like to do business with them one day in the feature, but the information they are reporting is FALSE and I have exhausted all my avenues to get this matter resolved.
