Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
Rentdebt should not be reporting to XXXX XXXX XXXX and Transunion a collection/chargeoff in the amount of {$450.00} on the XXXX XXXX XXXX partial account number XXXX. ( Please see page attached from my credit report. ) I never received any notification of this debt. Once I saw that this account was reporting negatively on my credit report I immediately contacted XXXX to discuss this. They refused to assist me in removing this false collection that was reporting on my credit report. I was never notified by telephone and/or email that there was an issue. The original creditor, XXXX XXXXXXXX never sent any notification either for any remaining balance due. I was the co-signer on a rental property for my son. His lease ended and he moved out per the rental agreement. There were no issues we were aware of. XXXX has no information regarding this and instead of working with me and explaining to me what this debt was for they sent it off to collections. This false reporting of a collection/chargeoff is seriously harming my credit score and this item needs to be removed. It is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act not to report accurate information on a credit report. I have contacted the bureaus as well as XXXX  and XXXX XXXXXXXX to remove this however, I have not been successful.

Issue: Other transaction problem

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2019, I authorized a payment of {$220.00} to my PayPal Mastercard. I have a PayPal account that's over a decade old and is separate from the PayPal Mastercard account, although I can view both in the same webpage. Recently, because of some chargebacks from a scammer, my account has a negative balance of {$1700.00} and is thus limited. I received an email on XX/XX/XXXX that {$1900.00} was debited from my personal bank account, in the form of a PayPal eCheck, an amount I did not authorized. The reason PayPal was able to do this is because they will not allow me to remove my linked bank account from the my PayPal account. I confirmed with the bank that issued the PayPal Mastercard that only {$220.00} was authorized to make a payment and not the additional {$1700.00}. I contacted a PayPal representative and all I was told was to contact my bank about the issue since PayPal can't do anything. In this link here : https : //www.paypal.com/us/smarthelp/article/will-paypal-have-the-ability-to-withdraw-funds-from-my-bank-account-without-my-permission-faq1148 PayPal states that they will not withdraw funds from my bank account without my permission, which is clearly not the case here. 

I am making this complaint today so that others will learn from my experience and I will demand PayPal remove my bank account linked with my PayPal account.

Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
My issue was well explained in my complaint report along with supporting documents attached that was first addressed to the Federal Trade Commission and later was referred to your office on XX/XX/XXXX which now have an assigned Case Ref. No. XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). 
The result ( s ) of that investigation did not seem to fix the problem as relayed by a cfpb representative thru telephone on XX/XX/XXXX because of a reply stating thereon that the derogatory report on my credit record will remain until after 7 years. A hard copy of that result will be mailed for my reference and record but unfortunately, that copy hasn't been received to this date for my official response. 
In this connection, I would like to request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to please go over with the attachments, specifically on the matter about payments made for on my behalf by XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ), a Debt Consolidation company that showed XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX/XXXX  had been receiving regular payments without let up since from XX/XX/XXXX till XX/XX/XXXX, and therefore, Charge-Off report by the said creditor is off the question. 
A Charge-Off account means a declaration by a creditor ( usually a credit card account ) that an amount of debt is unlikely to be collected. This occurs when a consumer becomes severely delinquent on a debt. Traditionally, creditors will make this declaration at the point of 6 months without payment. Based on this statement, does it apply to my case? 
In this regard, XXXX XXXX XXXX/XXXX/XXXX has committed unfair, deceptive, or abusive acts or practices that have greatly impacted my credibility.

Complaint:
I use the Amex bluebird card for my direct deposit. It was not there this morning as usual. I confirmed with my payroll company that the email from them showing it was sent was correct. They had sent my check. I tried numerous times to call bluebird. Chose option for representative but once transferred it would give a busy signal and hang up. Finally got through this afternoon. This is what was said.

I just called for the 10th time today. First time to get through Held for 20 minutes. First was told they had not received my deposit. When I called him out on that I had confirmation that they did he put me on hold for less than a minute to say they had an issue and it was of the highest priority. When I told him it couldnt be cause people had been waiting for days on theirs, he said I should have it in the next 4-5 hours. I said I know this is not your fault but I need a real time estimate. Are u just saying 4-5 hours to get me off the line? Do you have a real ETA? He again said 4-5 hours. I asked him was he planning to pay my bills tonight and feed me and my kids if it wasnt there then. No answer to that
