Company: Credit Karma, LLC

Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint:
After completing my taxes through XXXX, I opted in to receive my tax refund on a debit card issued by Credit Karma. The advertisement was for 2 features, an advance on your tax refund up to a certain amount, and that you get your refund deposited 5 days early. 

I have received my refund from fed and state, and was expecting to use this to pay a mechanic who only takes cash. When going to withdraw the money, I am hit with the limits in the attached screenshot below. 

These limits are making it impossible for me to withdraw all of my funds and close my account. I would have to go to the atm 7 days in a row or complete 4 bank transfers, each 24 hours apart, just to get the funds that are mine. 

I reached out to Credit Karma support chat and was told they would not increase my limit. I told them this is unacceptable and if they wont increase my limit to send me a check with the funds and close my account. I was told Id need to call in to escalate the case, in which I called 3 times, waiting for an hour on hold with no answer, then 3 hours on hold with no answer, and then 30 minutes on hold the 3rd time I called. 

This is unacceptable and if I would have been made aware of the limit I would not have opted in. The whole purpose of this was to get my refund early and now I will not have access to the funds until well after when I would have received the cash through regular XXXX XXXX in my bank. They have shown no effort to remedy the situation and the second support chat I had, I spoke with somebody extremely unprofessional whos response was Have a nice day when I asked to have my account closed.

Complaint:
15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) clearly states that transactions between the consumer and the Person/Corporation making the report is NOT included on the consumer reports. Yet XXXX is reporting this information.. The reporting of excluded information pursuant to 15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) on a consumer report is a clear violation of Metro2 compliance. Provide me with the Metro2 compliance disclosure on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency. I need the transactions reporting as late, collection/charge-off status and any other derogatory information deleted from my consumer reports effective immediately. Before you think to reply that this account has been " validated ', let 's be clear that I am not asking you to validate or verify anything. So please do not respond by telling me that as a tactic to waste my valuable time. Some of the negative accounts have been placed in Collection/Charge-Off Status WITHOUT mailing me a copy of IRS form 1099-C Cancellation of Debt. XXXX and the creditors reporting collections/Charge-Offs, late payments/other derogatory information in my consumer reports are in violation of 26 USC ss 6050P Returns Relating to the Cancellation of Indebtedness By Certain Entities. If this derogatory account information is not deleted from my consumer reports within 30 days, I will be forced to officially file IRS form 3949A : Information Referral AND IRS form 211 : Application For Award For Original Information Overview with the Internal Revenue Service against ALL entities involved.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
Before I explain, I want to say my demand is clear and I demand a knowledgeable representative looks over my complaint. Thank you. I pulled my credit report and noticed an alleged debt ( collection ) from XXXX XXXX XXXX that it is still reporting on TransUnion. I sent a debt validation letter to the creditor requesting validation of the alleged debt through demanding a request for accounting, in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code, UCC Article 9-210. They failed to provide me this, because they didnt provide me adequate validation since they didnt provide me with a record AUTHENTICATED as the law says ; so this reported information is not only invalidated but inaccurate and a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

TransUnion is participating in fraud with XXXX XXXX XXXX and violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act by willingly still reporting this invalidated and inaccurate information that still has not been deleted from my consumer report and I am willing to take legal action against both parties should this information continue to stay on my credit report.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
I recently received a copy of my credit report, and I notice there is an unauthorized credit inquiry made by ALLY FINANCIAL on XX/XX/2022. To my knowledge, I have not signed any documents authorizing the company in question to view my credit report. The listed inquiry was without authorization, and for no legitimate business purposes. As such, it is a very serious error in reporting. I never authorized such action, and this constitutes a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, as well as a violation of my rights to privacy. I am requesting your credit bureau to initiate an investigation and to determine responsible parties in this unauthorized credit inquiry. As part of your investigation, please send the names, business addresses, and phone numbers of those who made unauthorized credit inquiries so I may contact them directly. In addition, I respectfully request a copy of any documents authorizing credit inquiry, and signed by myself, so that I may verify its validity. If you find that I was not the one who authorized this inquiry, I ask that it be removed immediately from my credit file. Please be so kind as to forward me documentation that you have had the unauthorized inquiry removed. If you find that I am in error, then please send me proof of this. Finally, I am requesting an updated copy of my credit report, which should be sent to the address listed above. According to the provisions of 15 U.S. Code 1681j, there should be no charge for this report.

Complaint:
For several months, I've been attempting to address an incorrect account linked with HUNTER WARFIELD ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX ) on my credit report. Despite my exhaustive efforts, which include numerous calls and letters, the problem persists. This misattributed account has detrimentally impacted my credit score, preventing me from securing a home loan. 

Feeling overlooked and unheard by a major corporation is disheartening. Given the unresponsiveness of HUNTER WARFIELD ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX ), I'm reaching out to the CFPB. I trust in their capability to address and rectify such discrepancies, as my direct efforts with the bank have proven fruitless.
