Complaint:
This issue is an existing problem which credit bureaus weren't able to resolve.. Their investigation did not fix the account. They said they have verified it but did not give details on how their investigation went.. All they gave me was a paper print out stating the account was verified. This is against the FTC Law and payments were sent timely on this account and was never late..CFPB step up and fix this error

State: FL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
First off, thank you for your consideration.

I check my credit score using XXXX XXXX, and in XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX I noticed my credit score was extremely low. This was mainly due to 85 % utilization on a Capital One Credit Card. Unfortunately, I do not and have never had or owned a credit card from Capital One. I contested it, and it was ruled to be my debt ( although they did reduce the effect it had on my credit report, knocked it from 85 % credit utilization to 55 % ), however that is not good enough. I have never had an account with capital one, nor a credit card, and XXXX, XXXX, XXXX will not help me in this matter. Since it is a credit and not a debit card, I assume that whoever owns the account that is under my name is signing for purchases ( or has in the past ). Usually debit requires a pin, while credit requires a signature, so there has to be some proof out there that this isn't me.

I've managed to bring my credit score up 105 points in a year and I continue to pay my bills on time and do what I can to repair my credit. However, this mark on my credit is causing a huge hit and preventing me from getting a revolving credit account which would help further my score and get me where I need to be. I have no knowledge of this Capital One Account and I have never owned a Capital One Card, and I would like this matter investigated if possible and the tarnishing mark removed from my credit. I have reached the end of the dispute process with the three major Bureaus and they deem it my debt, however I do not understand how as I have never used a Capital One Credit Card in my life.

I really need assistance in this matter. Any help offered would be greatly appreciated. Again, I apologize for the reiteration, however I don't believe its fair for me to have to pay off a debt I didn't incur. I feel the agencies didn't due their due diligence when investigating the matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified these items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditors documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct.

In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigations, you stated in writing that you verified that these items are being reported correctly? Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly UPDATE all information which can not be verified.

Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy that Im about to seek. You are willful non complying with the FCRA.

Since you claim youve verified the accounts listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the company directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THESE ACCOUNTS? I believe you have not verified these accounts based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy.

Please update these accounts, or inaccurate information, from my file immediately & send me the results to the address listed... 

XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

Lastly, these accounts being reported is creating a ton of emotional & financial stress which is impacting my ability to sleep, causing problems at my job & creating unwanted stress in my home life. I need it update at once.

Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
Front desk at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX stated insurance would cover 100 %. I told them my insurance would not cover any of it. They insisted it would cover 100 %. I asked them how much is it worst case if they cover 0 % and they stated {$75.00}. After several visits, I began receiving bills for more than {$75.00} per visit. 

Total amount owed by me should be amount of visits times {$75.00}. I called the front desk staff to correct and they said there's nothing they can do since it already went through insurance, covering 0 %, and I need to call their billing department. I then called the billing department around XXXX different times, eventually asking for a supervisor. Every time they said I would receive a call back once a supervisor is free but I never once received a call back. 

I then started receiving collections notices. I replied within the XXXX  days checking the box " The amount is wrong '' and sent via certified mail. I never received a response regarding the amount, instead I received the same exact debt collection letter stating I again need to reply within XXXX  days but it had new dates listed.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Public record information inaccurate

Complaint:
I have a public record entry that was placed on my credit report and I have been trying for over 5 months to get this entry removed. I have spoken with numbers representatives, supervisors, and managers in regards to the erroneous public record and I have yet to get it resolved. This is my 4th dispute in which I am currently awaiting results. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called and spoke with a representative and inquired how Equifax verifies their public records. I want to know this information because the public record keeps coming back as mine. I had 3 representatives that told me that the request/dispute is sent as a message to the courthouse through XXXX. Once the court verifies it, the information is sent back to the credit bureau. I advised that I would like to cancel that dispute and they advised that because the dispute was already sent to the courthouse, I will need to contact them with my name and the case number. Being that I work for a XXXX XXXX, I know the court system and their procedures, but decided to call anyway. 
Contacted the court and they advised that they do no disclose, release or verify any information with the credit bureaus or any 3rd parties. I decided to call Equifax back, spoke with another rep this time and they advised that the information is verified by the runner who goes to the court house. I asked what information does the runner give to the courthouse, and how and what kind of physical information does the runner give back to the credit bureau. They could not answer that, and I requested to speak with the manager. Manager advised since this is a re-investigation, no runner is involved. She advised that they use a form that they send over to the courthouse. I asked what type of form and where is it sent because the courthouse confirmed that they do not verify any information with the bureaus. Equifax refuses to give my physical documentation ( whether tangible or electronic ) that they use to verify this bankruptcy is mine.

Complaint:
Despite multiple attempts, I have been unable to resolve the issue of fraudulent inquiries appearing on my consumer report. These inquiries are not associated with me in any way, and I bear no responsibility for them. Their presence has caused significant mental and financial distress. As a victim of identity theft, I have no alternative but to consider legal action if this matter is not appropriately addressed. These inaccurate and fraudulent items on my consumer report have hindered my ability to purchase my dream house and provide for my family 's needs. The impact on my financial well-being has been substantial. For your reference, I have attached a copy of the letter I previously sent to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), which outlines this issue and seeks resolution.

Complaint:
I XXXX XXXX along with my wife XXXX XXXX are in a position to file for a Chapter XXXX bankruptcy. However, as a means of pursuing a reasonable procedure to get out of debt over the next year without such a drastic step, we are requesting very low settlements in the 20 % range of where our debts were at the last payment. Accordingly, we believe that we only have one chance at this, and if we do not start receiving settlement offers soon, we will retain the bankruptcy attorney we recently consulted. Therefore, we request letters of settlement, and we request the cease and desist from all calls to our home, cell and/or work. We desire to resolve these matters in written form only. 

Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

State: WY
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Closing on a mortgage
Sub-issue: Delays with the closing process

Complaint:
Do to First Interstate Bank delay on our construction loan of 5 months past occupancy. Home owner initiated contact to get the loan roll over process initiated. Home owner did much of the work that is the banks responsibility. Documents signed from builder, preparation of paperwork, communication and confusion. 
This then created a {$4400.00} interest payment when our new mortgage payment will be {$3600.00}. Due to the banks delay, lack of preparation, lack of communication we paid nearly {$1000.00} extra in XXXX month and then turning around and having to pay {$3600.00} for the mortgage payment. This has been a hardship for our family and we should have never gotten to a payment that high had the bank done their job. On top of that at the closing the bank representative was a no show, leaving us with unanswered questions, frustration snd confusion on next steps. Current payment and future payment. After sharing with the bank we would need until XX/XX/XXXX for next payment when we would get paid again after already paying {$4400.00} there was no support or guidance in the process.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card

Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
For the past 3 months I have attempted to call US Bank to pay off a credit card. I call on the first of the month when payment is due and am unable to get through. My online account was closed when the card was closed and I am unable to log on to pay online. I was told my only option to make a payment is to call. Thats what Ive been trying to do but thats impossible when the bank cant be reached. I always get a message that they are having an interruption in services. When I attempt to email their customer service with the email address provided on their contact us page, its returned undeliverable. 

This account has now been accumulating interest and late fees not due to my failure to pay, but the bank blocking my ability to make any payments. This is not only unethical behavior but potentially fraudulent at the expense of consumers. They have made it impossible to make a payment or even contact someone there to assist.
