Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Public record information inaccurate

Complaint:
I called and spoke with the person who answered. I repeatedly asked why my credit score was going down while everything I was doing was positive. He repeatedly skirted the question giving me canned answers. I asked for a supervisor 3X before finally being given over to one. The supervisor was absolutely no help as well. He could not answer or would not answer any of my questions or concerns. 

The only way I check my credit scores is through XXXX XXXX. I know this is not totally accurate but they should be close. Over the recent 14 days my credit score with TransUnion has dropped 4 pts. while XXXX has increased by 28 pts. 

This is what is found on XXXX XXXX at the present time XXXX XXXX Transunion XXXX XXXX XXXX A 78 pt. difference.

Why is TransUnion lowering my Credit score as  I pay bills down? 
2. Why does XXXX have 28 accounts while TransUnion only has 20?

3. Why does TransUnion only have 2.6 years of credit history while XXXX has 3.3?

Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint:
I have reached out to XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) regarding a debt from an Amazon Credit card that was sent to XXXX XXXX  for collection. The debt was for SYNCHRONY BANK in the amount of {$1100.00}. The original account number was XXXX. My XXXX XXXX Account Number was XXXX. For some reason thay have changed this to XXXX. 

I paid the collection in full to XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). XXXX XXXX received the new amount due {$1200.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I received the receipt for the payment on invoice # XXXX. A letter showing the payment was made and a copy of a letter sent to the court to show the payment was made. I contacted XXXX XXXX and they redirected me to XXXX XXXX. I called back and spoke to someone who said they would reach out to XXXX XXXX and my credit report would be updated in 30 days. 

When the credit report was not updated I contacted XXXX XXXX and received a voicemail. I left 3 messages that were not returned. I disputed the collection with the 3 credit bureaus but was told I did not have enough information to have the collection removed. I contacted XXXX XXXX again, who tried to send me back to XXXX XXXX. They said that still have not received the letter from the law office, but will reach out to hem, once again. They will not let me send them the receipts. They claim these must come from the law office and when they are received my credit report will be updated. They claim to have reached out to XXXX XXXX twice already with no response. 

I contacted XXXX XXXX. They claim to have sent the information to XXXX XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX via chat and spoke to XXXX XXXX. I was told a Cease and Desist was placed on my account and forwarded to another number. I spoke to XXXX ( who would not provide a last name ) at XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX who had me remove the Cease and Desist claiming I placed this on XX/XX/XXXX - which I did not do. I did however speak to XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX who told me that would reach out to XXXX XXXX that day to correct the issue. 

XXXX consistently spoke over me and I requested a manager. Then XXXX informed me that they had reached out to XXXX XXXX twice, it is in my records, but they have not received anything from them. After asking repeatedly what happened in that correspondence and told me they have been having technical difficulties and they are missing a code. I explained that I understand technical difficulties but 2 months, 10 phone call and 2 chats should have resolved this and I wanted to speak to a manager. He told me no mangers were available and I could call back in 1 hour.

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

Complaint:
I am submitting this complaint as response to the most recent investigation conducted by the Credit Bureaus. I have to pursue my efforts to resolve these matters which require intentness to my personal credit report. I am frustrated and feel there are errors that are still reported on my personal credit report which are not clearly stated as to the accuracy and completeness of the information. At this time, I solely seek the correct remedy to my personal credit report and dispute the remaining information to fix. Under th FCRA Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) require the 3 credit bureaus to validate these accounts ( A ). It is not permissible to fail to validate these reporting accounts as unverified information without providing any proof within the time frame specified by law.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
As per the FCRA, I am entitled to a True and correct credit report, something I havent had for years since the Credit Bureaus have Repeatedly Failed to Correct the items or simply have not responded at all. I am becoming more and more disadvantaged as a XXXX person due to this. I have been deprived the opportunity to fully utilize or benefit from my true credit. Which is Unfair to me. 

I reached out to the Creditor During the Covid Pandemic to let them know I'd lost my work and source of income during the Pandemic. I was denied the removal of these lates during a time when the Creditor knew I was unemployed. As per the Cares Act, Lates which resulted from the Covid 19 Pandemic were actually forgiven during that period. 

The Creditor Did not honor this and continued to mark my account as derogatory which they later FROZE and made unusable once I paid it off. I wasnt warned about the freeze when I made the arrangements to pay, even when I made arrangements to repay the account I was marked as Late and derogatory. 

Which shows the creditor was not Compliant with the Cares Act resulting from the Covid-19 Pandemic.
