Complaint:
Experian has been furnishing my consumer report without my consent and for purposes not obtainable by law. Experian has violated 15 USC 1681b by furnishing my consumer report with no permissible purpose to do. They have cause me to not obtain credit because I was not notified of the allege reporting of unauthorized use. I have attached the accounts that have been listed for deletion. I have sent several complaints this past few months to Experian questioning accounts besides bridge crest which is a recent account not authorized for reporting and permissible purpose. They wrote back stating that the accounts were validated when in reality the only person that can validate an account is the original creditor of that account. Experian knows that the reporting creditors are not original creditors pursuant to 15 USC 1592g but failed to protect and delete the information per not able to validate. I will be suing for damages this has cause due to me not being able to obtain credit. And, the mental stress behind it. I called Experian a few months back and spoke to a rep who stated that the computer is the one that receives the information if an account was validated so they wouldn't know.

State: VA
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:
Upon opening credit lines for my husband and I, we called the credit card issuer ( XXXX ) and set up automatic payments. For some reason, the bank only set up auto-pay for my husband 's account but not mine. Consequently, my bill was paid over 30-days late, when we finally noticed the balance had not changed. We called the bank to complain in XX/XX/XXXX and they said they would investigate. We were then NEVER contacted with the results of the investigation and were forced to call the supervisor multiple times to no avail, leaving voice mails each time. Finally today, XX/XX/XXXX, we were able to get this person on the phone, just to hear him say they would not call the credit bureaus to retract the mistaken report of a late payment because it is, in fact, accurate. It's true the payment was made late, but the question is WHY. This was their fault, not ours, so we feel the credit report strike is unwarranted. They could easily pull the call record to confirm we asked for auto-pay to be set-up on both accounts and verify this was their mistake, but they refuse to do so. We have impeccable credit, which we have worked hard to attain. We do not want this undeserved stain on our record.

Complaint:
This is a new account and it has turned into a nightmare and nothing but a burden due to lack of proper help when I call numerous times... 
I did 3 cash advances and they turned off my card and my online access to my account whereas Now I can not even pay my card off as I want to. 
I have called numerous times and have been on hold for over an hour each time. 
They said I would have to go into the bank in person to resolve the matter to prove my identity.. I have answered all the identity questions that prove my identity only to be told my account can not be unlocked unless I go into a Bank of America bank.. ( in person ). 
I then told them to just close my account and send me a final bill and they will not even do that.. so I am demanding my account be closed at my request and submit me a final bill so I can pay this account off in full... I do not want this account due to the fact Noone is able to simply help me over the phone. It's ridiculous for me to drive over 2 hours out of my way to a physical bank.. I opened this account online... they mailed me my card to my po box and they mailed me my pin number so I could use my card to withdraw cash if I wanted to ... .and now they expect me to go into a bank when I used my card as I have the right to ... and if a po box and pin are not secure enough then I don't want to do any kind of business what so ever with an incompetent business such as bank fo america ..they are nothing but a burden and I don't need this credit card since I get way better  service from my other credit cards providers such as XXXX XXXX and XXXX  XXXX  ... Never in my life have I had such a negative experience Please help me close my account and get a final bill Thank You

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: PA
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
I sent notice to CAPITAL ONE to OPT OUT of credit reporting as the CFPB published an article that stated, credit reporting is optional. I have a right to privacy and my privacy is my constitutional right as established in Griswold v. Connecticut ( 1965 ). The Supreme Court ruled that the right to privacy is a constitutional right. I informed CAPITAL ONE that I want to opt out of the sharing of my personal private account and financial information to third parties XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. These corporations are not affiliated with CAPITAL ONE. Additionally, when I submitted an application for the above mentioned account, that application was my security collateral which funded this account. The balance is in a positive amount which indicates a credit that is due to my principals account. Thus, this account has been falsely reported as past due. This is defaming my character and causing me and my family tremendous harm.
