Complaint:
I've had an issue with all 3 major credit agencies. XXXX, Experian and XXXX. I've called each agency personally about alot of debt collection.I explained to them that I did not do any of this and I would like for them too remove all the debt collection on my reports. Ive sent in affidavit letters and police reports letting them know it was fraud.They all refused too assist me with this matter telling me too call all of the companies. I told the agencies this is why I'm trying too dispute with you. XXXX screwed up my account so now I don't have access too my credit file. I was on the phone with them for over 2 hours trying too see why I have duplicate credit files. They claim it was some kind of glitch in there system. Spoke with XXXX and they also said they have had issues with glitches as well. I'm so frustrated at this point I don't know what else to do but file this complaint with you guys.

Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I submitted the attached police report to all  XXXX  credit bureaus notifying them that I was a victim of identity theft and that the  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  account ending in  XXXX  that was reported as a charge off on my credit report with a balance of {$1500.00} was the result of a stolen credit card. I asked that this account be immediately removed from my credit file ; however, both  XXXX  and Experian have refused to remove stating that   XXXX    XXXX   XXXX  has confirmed that the charges are correct. I have attempted to follow up with   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  directly but every time I call in I am given the run around. Numerous agents have confirmed that not only are the charges fraudulent but nearly 75 % of the balance that is being reported is the result of their own late fees and interest charges assessed after I initially alerted them to the fraud on my account back in  XXXX   XXXX . It is my very strong belief that this balance is an attempt by  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  to extort money from its customers and that the resulting charge off was an act of retaliation by  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  as I have refused to pay any and all of this {$1500.00} balance. As evidence of this fact, since closing the account in  XXXX   XXXX ,   XXXX     XXXX   XXXX  has refused to further investigate the fraud claims made on this account, even porting the account balance ( without the actual transaction histor y )  to another account number in order to mask the poor account management that has taken place here and continue to report this account to my credit report after I provided documentation with the credit reporting agencies as proof of the fraudulent activity on this account. Further, through the end of  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  management refused to answer any of my numerous inquiries and attempts to remove this account from my credit report. Again as evidence of this fact, I filed a Better Business Bureau complaint in  XXXX   XXXX , which also went unanswered.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: OR
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Closing your account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
I was financially struggling but remaining in communication with Capital 1 in regards to my Capital 1 credit card. I paid off my credit card this summer under the advice of their staff that stated that I would be able to have use of my card after I paid. 

When I paid and called back to have the restriction removed the first person I spoke with said that the account was not closed -Staff name is XXXX XXXX 

The second person I spoke with XXXX ( XXXX ), stated that there was a permanent restriction on my account and that I could reapply for another card. This goes against everything I had been told previously and I feel I was mislead intentionally so that they would get their money back. 

The third person I spoke with ( XXXX XXXX XXXX stated that the account was not closed but restricted. Again I was not sure what this meant given the card could not be used and that reapplying would mean a new injury on my credit which I wanted to avoid. She stated that she would document my compliant but when I asked for a confirmation of the complainant being filed she stated that she was a manager and unable to transfer the call any higher and that there is no formal compliant process which I also asked to be documented that I was upset about she directed me to write a letter to Capital 1 if I wanted to file the compliant with response. she stated that there was a letter which I never received. 

I was financially struggling but still choose to pay back the card company as I am really trying to work on my credit I feel I am being punished for trying to do the right thing. There were times I choose not to buy fruit and vegetables because I wanted to pay back my card company and another time I choose to pay back Capital 1 instead of paying lights. I was dedicated to building my credit and having access to a credit card again as it is the only one I have. I would not have made these extreme sacrifices during my time of need if I had been informed that I would not have access to that card in the future. I was fully under the impression I would be able to use my card again in its full capacity once I paid my restricted account and not one representative that I spoke to while my account was still owed corrected this for me even after conversation with them about using the card responsibility in the future. This is misleading and I was purposely not informed about the account restrictions. 

What I really dislike about this is that they made money off of me being in hardship. I believe I paid more in interest and late fees than I ever spent on the card.
