My bank called me to inform me that there was an unknown charge on my account. They wanted to verify if it was mine and they were correct it did not belong to me. Later that same day I received a call from one of my credit card providers stating the same thing. I immediately knew my identity had been stolen. I got online and made an account with XXXX XXXX  and got a copy of my report. For years my name, birthday and social security number was used to open accounts that are not mine.

Complaint:
Timeline below ... 

- XX/XX/XXXX Fraudulent Charge {$520.00} from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ). I was never in the XXXX XXXX or purchased anything from there. 

- XX/XX/XXXX Reached out to Barclay 's via phone ( they may have the call recorded ). I told them everything and they said to fax in the statement or mail it in which I did. They said it may take a  month or two to correct since it was over a year old but nothing was ever done. They gave me a case number XXXX. 

- XX/XX/XXXX - Resent fax - No response from Barclay 's - XX/XX/XXXX - I called back their fraud department and they said they never received the fax - XX/XX/XXXX - Sent another fax - No response from Barclay 's - XX/XX/XXXX - Mailed in a physical copy ... again no response. 

Since then I've reach out multiple times via phone and secure message on their website in my portal asking what is going on. They can't ever give me a straight answer and just keep telling me to either fax them or mail them which I've already done on multiple occasions. I know I am not the only one having trouble receiving reimbursement for fraudulent charges. I even had to close a previous card with them due to fraudulent charges.

State: TX

Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged

Complaint:
This company continues to call/send demanding notices to me. I feel threatened as this woman just told me I am refusing to pay and that another amount would be added to the balance. And that I should pay my debt and made what seemed like some threatening comment afterwards. I advised her that was not my worry at the moment and I had nothing else to say. I am being harassed day and night via mail and/or calls. I received a one page document that does not state they are a debt collector. 

This company does not have a surety bond in the state of Texas to collect, which is required. Yet, they continue to attempt to collect and violate Texas law. I filed a compliant against this company with the Texas attorney generals office. I am also seeking a class action lawsuit with my attorney due to the XXXX, XXXX and XXXX  XXXX and XXXX this is causing me as a XXXX a patient awaiting XXXX. Texas Surety bond information as required by Sec. 392.101 - my original signature on the application from the creditor - my original signature on an application with your office consenting to any service. 

Please note XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX are bonded in the state of Texas and are required to comply with Texas Finance Code. If a debt collector has failed to respond to your debt validation request, then they have essentially admitted, per Texas Finance Code 392.202 ( b ) ( 2 ), that the debt in question is inaccurate. Per this requirement you must delete this trade line or not place it on my report altogether if you do not have sufficient time to complete an investigation to validate this debt in 30 days according to Sec. 392.202 ( d ) ( 1 ) Also per Texas Finance Code 392.202 Correction of third -party debt collectors or credit bureaus files.

I request immediate notification by mail if this alleged debt is sold or transferred per Sec. 392.301 ( a ) ( 4 ). Please reply with your response via US MAIL. Do not contact me by phone as it is inconvenient. Do not contact my family, acquaintances, or employer in any manner. Please note I am fully prepared to pursue my rights for the harm this inaccuracy has done to me. Sec. 392.403. CIVIL REMEDIES. ( a ) A person may sue for : ( 1 ) injunctiv
e relief to prevent or restrain a violation of this chapter ; and ( 2 ) actual damages sustained as a result of a violation of this chapter. Please also note Texas BCC17. I demand that you will not sell, transfer, or assign this debt per Sec. 392.301 ( a ) ( 4 ).

State: KY
Product: Credit card
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 XXXX I sent a dispute for two items from a specific merchant. 1 transaction was for failure to provide the service that I purchased/ Failure to provide advertised refund. The second was an unauthorized transaction from the same merchant. I provided full and adequate information in my dispute for BOA to open and process an investigation with the merchant, On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from BOA requesting " additional information '' concerning the case. The majority of the information requested had already been provided in my initial dispute. I sent a full response up by Fax and Postal mail on XX/XX/XXXX. 

On XXXX I received a second letter asking me to sign a form to report the charges as unauthorized and issue a new card. I returned this form on XXXX by Postal Mail. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from BOA ( Dated XXXX ) stating that the case had been closed because additional information was not sufficient or received in a timely manner. 

I very promptly replied to BOA 's arguably burdensome inquires. I.e. BOA requested information already provided as well as mailed multiple requests that could have easily been combined into a single inquiry. Additionally BOA asked for information to be returned in a timeline not reasonable by today 's Postal Mail standards. 

I am very concerned based on this experience that customers are being denied their rights to dispute purchases intentionally and/or unintentionally by BOA. The requested response deadlines provided by BOA could not be met by the typical customer.
