Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute a debt collection account that is appearing on my credit report. Under the Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), it is required that all information on a credit report be accurate, complete, and verifiable. However, the debt collection account in question has not been verified, and I believe that it is inaccurate and incomplete.

According to the FCRA, debt collections can only remain on my credit report for up to 7 years from the date of the original delinquency. In this case, the debt collection is beyond the allowed time frame and should be removed from my credit report immediately.

I request that you investigate and remove this account from my credit report as soon as possible, in accordance with the FCRA. Additionally, I request that you provide me with an updated copy of my credit report once this error has been corrected.

Thank you for your attentiontothismatter.

Issue: Fraud or scam

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX/Zellepay.com sent money thinking I was purchasing an item and was scammed for {$1600.00}. I didn't receive product out {$1600.00} and my bank of 25+ years won't reverse the charges. It was stated no error occurred. I didn't receive the product and was scammed out of my money. When speaking with customer service representative, they should be required to ask questions to deter fraud. Do you know this person? This can't be reversed? Something put in place to protect people and their hard earned money. Being a customer and never using a product such as Zelle and making large transactions should be some hold before the money is sent. This happened on XX/XX/XXXX. There needs to be some form of protection or products like this shouldn't be legal.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX via certified registered mail, I tendered ( following no response from CAPITAL ONE ), another negotiable instrument ( U.C.C. 3-603 ) for satisfaction regarding account number ending in XXXX given the Remittance Coupon Presentment in the amount of [ {$3200.00}. XXXX/XXXX ] they sent by USPS. Included in my correspondence was Notice of Acceptance and Authorization to Set-off and " Instructions to Tender Payment '' to set-off account number ending in XXXX for the amount [ {$3200.00}. XXXX/XXXX ]. I informed CAPITAL ONE my negotiable instrument is presented under the authority of The Constitution Article 1 section 10. clause 1, The Constitution Seven Money Clause # 6, The Constitution Monetary Rule # 5, House Joint Resolution 192, Public Law 73-10, UCC 3-104 ( c ), Title 31 USC 5118, and the U.C.C. '' ( Uniform Commercial Code ) - The Federal Tax Lien Act of 1966. 
I requested if for any reason, CAPITAL ONE was unable to apply the credit and adjust the accounting thus completing the set-off, because I have accepted their presentment for assessed value, to please send a notice of dishonour from a qualified third party as well as, if applicable, send any law, code, policy or provision that purports that their company has a right to require payment in a particular kind of currency and/or that I am not in honour nor continue to operate in good faith nor with clean hands to satisfy this obligation for both parties. There was a directive to send the documents to the address I provided within ten ( 10 ) business days from the date the Notice of Acceptance and Authorization to Set-off was post marked. 
CAPITAL ONE did not respond AT ALL, nor with a third-party notice, nor did they set off of the account ending in XXXX ; therefore ( CAPITAL ONE ) fell into default due to non-response. As of date, XX/XX/XXXX, I have yet to receive any written correspondence/action fulfilling my specific request to discharge/setoff account ending in XXXX, nor have I been made aware as to why lawfully CAPITAL ONE is choosing to not sef-off the account though tender was made. 
CAPITAL ONE was informed of California 's Commercial Code 3603/UCC 3-603 `` If tender of payment of an obligation to pay an instrument is made to a person entitled to enforce the instrument and the tender is refused, there is discharge to the extent of the amount of the tender ''. Due to CAPITAL ONE not responding to any of my correspondence, they acquiesce to my terms therefore, I am seeking complete discharge/ set-off of the full amount of {$3200.00}. XXXX/XXXX Pursuant to 1-102 and 3-603 of the Uniform Commercial Code. With CAPITAL ONEs failure to respond and set off of the account, per contract is now in debt of {$7500.00} to the Principle of said account and no longer have the capacity to pursue collection.
