Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: NC
Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: Domestic (US) money transfer
Issue: Money was not available when promised

Complaint:
I have made over a dozen transactions selling items via PayPal, in 2021. Every time sell an item and get a payment I am told my money will be held indefinitely until the buyer receives my item and has an opportunity to verify that the transactions aren't unrecognized. The last two months I have barely sold more items than I did earlier in the year, but the items are higher in value. PayPal has missed the payout date multiple times. Everytime I speak to an agent I get told different reasons for why my money is being held. One agent said I personally had limited transactions, one agent has told mey buyers have limited transactions, one agent told me everyone gets their money held and one agent told me that it's because I had never sold an item of such high value before. I get lied to at every turn of the way with PayPal. They have held over {$1100.00} for two weeks, now they've had {$630.00} for going on two weeks. It's apparent that they are holding money to draw interest on the funds, as if the fees they charge aren't enough to make money. Even an item that I sold on XXXX XXXX, which has its own escrow service built in, is having the payment held through PayPal while they collect interest on my funds.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
I obtained a copy of my consumer report and saw accounts on it that were not authorized by me. There are numerous violations of the federal law, the FCRA. Pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ), congress made clear findings that my consumer report must be fair and accurate to me, the consumer. The reporting agencies have assumed the vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit, on their own. By law, pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ), consumer reporting agencies have grave responsibilities of fairness, impartiality and respect the consumers ' right to privacy. My right to privacy has been infringed upon, and I have never given up my right to privacy, nor did I authorize them to report any information on my consumer report. The erroneous and fraudulent reporting on the reporting agencies ' part has caused me financial harm and adverse action against me. I have never given XXXX, TransUnion or XXXX consent to report any accounts on my consumer file, making this aggravated Identity Theft. All three agencies are also guilty of conspiring with these companies to violate my federally protected rights. Pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( c ) ( a ), information excluded from consumer reports ( b ) no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information ( 5 ) any other adverse information. Any harmful, inaccurate account furnished to my consumer report is an adverse action.

Complaint:
My first issue is the the representative whom I spoke with to secure the loan misrepresented the insurance product that they offered. He explained to me that in the event of loss of employment the insurance would pay off my loan for me. Well that did not happen unfortunately I was laid off XXXX XXXX and this insurance product that the XXXX representative sold me on did not pay off my loan. I am requesting that the insurance product they are selling be investigate and properly marketed to consumers with the correct information ... ... ..The insurance will only pay for 3 payments in the event of lose of employment. I am asking they my pay my loan in full as this is how it was advertised to me when sold. 
My second issue is that the insurance company paid XXXX XXXX for my XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX Payment however XXXX is reporting these as late payments on my credit report. I would like to these late payments immediately removed from my credit report. I have attached the information and emails from the insurance company stating they made the payments directly to XXXX XXXX so why are they reporting them as late payment. 

Sincerely XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

XXXX XXXX XXXX I am writing to inform you that I am disputing the account being reported by your company on my credit reports due to potential inaccuracies and lack of completeness. I previously disputed this account with the credit reporting bureaus, but it was reported as verified and accurate.

As the furnisher of information, I am directly disputing the following details with you and requesting that you conduct an investigation in accordance with the FCRA Section 623 as outlined under FACTA 312. This provision grants me the right to request a reasonable investigation of the information being reported to the credit bureaus. Should you be unable to perform a reasonable investigation or locate the necessary documents to address my dispute ( s ), the FCRA mandates that you remove the negative information from my credit reports. This may also entail the complete removal of the account. Moreover, in accordance with FCRA requirements, it is essential that this erroneous information is permanently blocked from any future re-reporting attempts by your company or any associated entities. If you have indeed conducted a proper investigation of the records for this account and have determined that the reported information is accurate and complete, kindly provide me with an explanation of the methods employed during the investigation and a detailed description of the records reviewed. I would appreciate receiving a copy of this information to conduct my independent investigation to verify the accuracy of your records and confirm the completion of a reasonable investigation. Additionally, I kindly request a copy of the 1099 that was issued. Please note that I have initiated this communication voluntarily, and any future correspondence regarding this dispute should be directed to the address provided above.
