Company: Credit Karma, LLC
State: CA
Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: Mobile or digital wallet
Issue: Fraud or scam

Complaint:
I have been using the CreditKarma Spend account which also includes a debit card to make POS purchases. I feel that CreditKarma is laundering the money transferred from my bank account by withholding the money transfered for several days after my bank already paid the transfer to their systems. According to my bank, that money should show up the same day or next day in CreditKarma account. Recent example. Initiated transfer of {$25.00} to the CreditKarma Spend account on XX/XX/21. My bank paid that transfer out on XX/XX/21. As of today, XX/XX/21, CreditKarma does not reflect that money is available even though they have been paid for over 5 days. This has happened every time XXXX transfer money. It feels as though they are funneling that money through some other account ( probably collecting interest ) and waiting several days to make it available. this does not seem right in todays fast paced electronic digital world. I am submitting this so perhaps an investigation into CreditKarma 's practices can be started. I am also contacting other agencies including FCC and the FBI. Each time I contact the company regarding this issue, I get no response from their online contact submission but usually the money suddenly appears in my CreditKarma account really fast after complaining. I wonder if I didn't complain how long they would wait to transfer the money? I am sure they are doing this to tens of thousands of their customers and the amount of interest they are illegally gaining through this money laundering scheme is probably in the millions. I am also likely to contact a local news channel to do an investigative report. People need to know about this scam going on.

Complaint:
When checking my credit report to buy a home, I saw XXXX XXXX XXXX listed. I called them to request a 1099c because the debt showed as charged-off and written off for {$6600.00} on both my and cosigner credit reports back in XX/XX/XXXX. However, it also strangely showed an updated balance of {$7400.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX. 

I asked the XXXX XXXX representative to explain why they were reporting the debt this contradictory way when she stated it was not written off. The rep claimed it was not actually written off again, despite what the credit reports stated. I requested the 1099-C cancellation of debt form they should have sent me. The rep backtracked and said no 1099-C was available because the debt wasn't written off after all. 
This confused me, since they seemed to be reporting it as written off while still trying to collect on it from me and the primary borrower. The rep told me to contact law office who now has loan, admitting she couldn't properly answer my questions. 
I'm very concerned XXXX XXXX is being intentionally misleading and evasive about this debt they claim is not written off but reported that way. I'm seeking clear answers on why they are reporting and collecting on it contradictorily from 2 people as well as stating written off, which means it was filled on there taxes without sending me a 1099c form. According to the FCRA they are in violation as well as credit bureaus for reporting non verified information on my credit report. A written off or charged off account is a loss and is closed to any future charges. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting this account as charged-off and written off on my credit report, indicating they have canceled the debt. However, they are now suing me to collect on this same account. This contradictory reporting is inaccurate and violates provisions of the FCRA relating to consumer credit reporting rights. I formally dispute this misleading account information and request a full investigation and correction with deletion.

Complaint:
I've been disputing fraud accounts on my credit report since XX/XX/2020. I keep sending multiple sets of letters to the bureaus and the creditors so the excuse of " we didn't get it '' doesn't happen. Furthermore, each letter is certified mail with tracking and each letter shows signed and delivered and yet the bureaus are still not taking any actions. The accounts are not showing in dispute nor are they removed from my report. The accounts always show up with different name variations and different account number variations and yet the bureaus seem to ignore the trend and let these fraud accounts affect my XXXX XXXX. I have requested the investigation to be initiated and also verifiable proof to be submitted should the account claim to be mine. Not only have I not received any mail showing the verifiable proofs needed to justify the accounts to be on my report, I haven't even received any letters at all stating the investigations have begun. Per the FCRA and federal law, the process is supposed to be 30 days. 160 days later, I'm still here shelling out money for certified mail with no end in sight and no results to show. This is my last option before I take this up with my lawyers and sue for full compensations and damages incurred. Finally, it seems that when these complaints are submitted, the bureaus are using the excuse that they " can't confirm my identity '' to get away with taking no actions on my credit report. Please investigate this as well.

On XX/XX/2023 i submitted a letter to the credit bureau disputing all inaccuracies on my credit that i have listed below. The credit bureau completed their investigation verifying the accounts as accurate. 

XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX According to the FCRA The term " investigate consumer report '' means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumer 's character, general reputation, person characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through person interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of the information.

Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: Mobile or digital wallet
Issue: Unexpected or other fees

Complaint:
In PayPal 's response to my previous complaint, they claim to have correctly debited my PayPal account. This is absurd and PayPal is acting illegally to defund me. No additional refund has been posted to my account. Additionally, after speaking with a PayPal representative yesterday, she stated PayPal would conduct a further investigation into this issue. Yet, the CFPB response from PayPal stated the case was closed against me. 

On XX/XX/23, a {$220.00} purchase was made online from XXXX through my PayPal account using my XXXX credit card. I returned this purchase within the refund terms and conditions of XXXX and was provided a refund on XXXX Credit Card for {$220.00} ( the full amount ) in XXXX separate refund transactions : {$25.00} and {$190.00}. On XX/XX/23, I received an email from PayPal indicating that {$220.00} was being debited from my PayPal account " Because you received duplicate refunds for the same transaction, we have debited {$220.00} USD from your PayPal account. '' As noted above, I only received XXXX refund for {$220.00}. On a side note, I wasn't even aware a Dispute was logged with PayPal, let alone that anything was being investigated. PayPal 's Dispute ID : XXXX I attempted contacting/calling PayPal on XX/XX/23 at XXXX, was left on hold for almost an hour and was ultimately unable to resolve the issue. Essentially what PayPal is arguing is 1 ) I bought the item, 2 ) I returned the item, 3 ) I received one refund, 4 ) now I'm being charged for the item that was returned and I received one refund for. Make sense? This issue reeks of fraudulent business practices on the part of PayPal. I will say this, I see no reason to use PayPal in the future for any transactions.

Complaint:
As of XX/XX/2023 ( date of complaint ), I am less than 30 days past due on a payment on my account with Ollo. I've run into minor financial issues due to the loss of my fiance in XXXX, but the past due payment will be resolved as of XX/XX/2023 ( all payments caught up to current ). Ollo has called my cell phone 14 times since XX/XX/2023, with some calls coming back to back. Given that the account is only 16 days overdue, this seems rather excessive and borderline harassing. I've had a good experience with this credit card prior to this incident, but this ordeal has put a pretty bad taste in my mouth and has put me off of doing further business with them.
