Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
Over the past 1.5 years I have attempted to get information about the debt Im accused of owing. J have requested a detailed breakdown of all Charges on this account. I received a response with only a amount owed without any type of clarification of charges. Only a bill! This is not right and they are still not removing it off my credit report. How can they do this without proof of purchases and/ or charges? Also when I received the information on account it was late by at least 15 days. Now they are calling me? Weekly /daily. Why are they doing this to me? I just want to get the statements of all purchases I supposedly charged. And the authorization to do so? Give me something to work with for XXXX  sake!

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:
I recently contacted the credit bureau regarding an account that shows on my credit report as charged off. This account has been updating each month with the last update on XX/XX/2021. This is an update in the payment history and according to FCRA laws, charged off accounts should NOT include an active payment history. This falsely manipulates the statute of limitations on the debt. My credit score dropped 30+ points due to the credit bureau updating the remarks of the charged off account and it still updating to show an active payment history. I have filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission. FTC Report # XXXX This is my second complaint regarding this matter. Equifax still refuses to remove the account and they are fully aware that it is updating every month, as stated in a recent letter they sent me. They should also be aware that this is unlawful, per FCRA rules and regulations, and this account needs to be removed from my report. XXXX has already complied and Equifax needs to follow suit.

Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account
Sub-issue: Transaction was not authorized

Complaint:
I have an account with Chime Bank. On Sunday XX/XX/2023, I woke up and had a notification from my bank that my account was overdrawn by over {$300.00} from an ATM withdrawal made on Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXX XXXX. 

I had stopped at a Holiday gas station in XXXXXXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX  and made a POS purchase prior to heading to work in XXXX, XXXX. I worked from XXXX to XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. 

I called Chime right away that morning to report the charge as fraudulent. The agent on the phone took my information, started an investigation, and even said on the phone that it didn't look like my physical charge was used for this transaction. This transaction was also able to bypass Chime 's " security measures '' to overdraw my account by {$300.00}. I can not overdraw my account by that much using my actual physical card. 

I provided a parking ramp transponder report showing that my vehicle- and I - were in XXXX at the airport. 

Chime denied my claim based only on the transcript of my original call and the claim that I did not supply supporting documentation. I requested copies of the documents they used to make their determination and they sent me the call transcript AND a copy of the transponder report I had provided them as supporting documentation. 

At this point I am filing a complaint for Chime 's unethical business practices.

Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information is missing that should be on the report

Complaint:
XXXX 's data is incomplete. They claim I have only 3 paid on time accounts when all but one of my accounts is paid, whether open or closed, and never late. I have 1 account that was ever late and I did not know there was anything on the account. The amount was {$5.00} that the card company added after I paid it in full on their website. They showed it as {$200.00}. I had no way to know they had added a charge to the account because I had moved to take care of my elderly mother. They made no attempt to contact me beyond mailing notices to my old address. No email or phone call or text. I had even changed my driver 's license and address so they had notice I had moved. XXXX should show about a dozen Paid/Never Late accounts but they don't. All of their aggregate data is incorrect giving creditors a completely false picture and reducing my credit score from well over XXXX to the mid XXXX 's over a {$5.00} late payment.. 

In addition, they stole my credit card number and tried to charge me for something I had refused to authorize and blocked me from accessing my account. It took two hours to get someone on the phone to fix it and the next day the same thing happened again.
