Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: Mobile or digital wallet
Issue: Problem adding money

Complaint:
Hi, I have been using PayPal service for almost 2 years but suddenly my account was permanently limited saying that I have violated their policy which is not clear to me because they refuse to give any specific violation imposed on my account. The money I received is purely from an online business ... and I am not selling physical products, I only sell XXXX  products which is delivered via email. 

My customers use to pay or buy using PayPal since it is convenient using their service, in other words, me and my clients use it as a payment method and I have responded my clients in a timely manner whenever they ask for a refund because they don't like the service. 

Now my business is slowly losing sales and it is a huge loss for me as a business owner and that is the main reason why I file a complaint in your firm, since I have heard that you have solved a lot of problems like this and many clients are happy for your service because they are able to restore their account from being permanently limited and continue to do business. 

I hope you can help me with this problem. Thank you.

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

Complaint:
Complaint ID : XXXX The aforementioned Complaint with Experian is not resolved. Per the FTCA, any derogatory item that can not be verified ; verified means, the original furnisher of information ( not a third party, XXXX, etc. ) i.e. credit card company, student loan lender, mortgage company, or court of record for legal matters. Experian, upon request must send where and whom the reported information originated to prove this reported information is not only valid but also, verified. 
If the information disputed, is still " unverified '' as defined by the FTCA, procedures for reporting. The disputed information must be investigated, verified as outlined via the FTCA and IF a disputed item can not prove valid, the item, deleted from the credit file.

The original complaint to the CFBP recorded, XX/XX/2018, went unfulfilled. Since filing a formal complaint with the CFPB, Experian sent letters, titled-notification of dispute, investigation results, and finally, an explanation for the results, with a catch-all summary and consumer rights jargon printed on the trailing pages of the letters mailed. 

Experian 's generic mass produced letters, a waste of time and nothing more. Per the FTCA, the item ( s ) of dispute should no longer appear on Experian 's credit file, yet remain. I request all disputed items be deleted per the FTCA procedures for reporting.

Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Banking errors

Complaint:
This bank like institution whom in the past couple years I've hadn't had many problems with, decided to try and feed me XXXX. The month prior they have this incentive that allows you to send what they call a boost that's sepperate from their other products basically stating that I can send 5 boost to people aswell as receive XXXX back in the amount of XXXX dollars. Well my friend asked me to do that for him and I did but he claimed he never got it and I showed him that I sent it ... he sent one to me and I received his. So I sent it back. So this month curiously I emptied my account before the 1st to show a XXXX balance and requested he send me a boost. I got confirmation from this banking app that he sent one. But I never received it. I contacted customer service multiple times the first time I was told to check back the next day the next day came around the next associate disconnected with me not answering my question. I then reached out to the banking complaint line. I explained to them the situation... I'll gladly share those emails with you as well. They first tried to tell me that I had already received it ... so I asked then if I had received it who sent it to me ... because I only had one friend send me one and that was on the first. And on their system it said that I had received it already... which then I showed them thar I had not received it. I find it hard to believe that this establishment was able to predict the future one day before I asked My friend to boost me... with that being said I also find it hard to understand that if they give you XXXX to send then you should once again be able to receive XXXX. And since I had in their eyes already received this " Illusionary boost '' then why am I not able to receive the one my friend sent. Makes no sense... regardless all I got was XXXX. Now I'm responsible for paying them back for something i didn't receive ... which goes back to my friends situation. If they stole XXXX dollars from him and are trying to steal XXXX dollars from me.. how many people have they been stealing XXXX dollars from claiming these people received something they didn't. Had they just admitted they made a mistake this could have easily been avoided. But once again I'm being brushed off as if I don't matter well XXXX them I matter you let them try and feed that XXXX to you. Because I ain't eating it.

First I would like to say there has been a violation of 15 U.S code 1681 section 602 states " I have the right to privacy '', 15 U.S code 1681b, which states " a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstance and no other ; In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates '' which I never gave. I checked my credit report and found items that were being reported inaccurate and false. There has been another violation of 15 U.S code 1681c, which states " This subchapter clearly states no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information ; accounts placed for collections '' which is inaccurate and being reported anyways. A third violation of 15 U.S code 1681e says " Every consumer reporting agency shall make a reasonable effort to verify the identity of a new prospective user and the uses certified by such prospective user prior to furnishing such user consumer report '' which never took place. 15 U.S code 1666b states " a creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose ''. These items being reported are causing actual damages and causing me to be denied things needed to provide for my children and household. They have been put on notice with a notarized dispute letter via certified mail.
