Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint:
Hi, I had my AAdvantage Aviator credit card ( ending in XXXX ) for a year and I was charged an annual fee of {$99.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. Since I wasn't using the card or XXXX XXXX as much as I thought, I decided to close the card to avoid the annual fee. I called customer service at ( XXXX ) XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX to close the account in a call that lasted 9 minutes. However, my account was not closed and {$99.00} was taken from my bank account on XX/XX/XXXX. I noticed this and called the same customer service number on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX in a call that lasted 5 minutes. I was assured the annual fee would be returned and to be patient. I called in on XX/XX/XXXX to check again and I was told I did not cancel my card until XX/XX/XXXX, which was more than 60 days after the annual fee was charged on XX/XX/XXXX. The customer service representative told me they have no record of my call on XX/XX/XXXX. I have a record of that call on my phone ( screenshot attached ) and there would have been no other reason for me to call customer service except to close the card. Thank you

Company: Meridian Financial Services, Inc.
State: GA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
I do not have a contract with MEDERIAN FINANCIAL SERVICES nor do I owe them any debt. I mailed in a proof of debt validation/proof as to how I owe them the alleged debt, Including the original contract and more, which they could not prove nor provide instead they avoided my request and updated it with the credit reporting agencies as verified without proof. I will not accept any billing statements or account summaries because those are not the correct requirements for proof of debt validation. No Proper documents including the original contract and how this debt exists were provided. 

MERIDIAN FINANCIAL does not have any legal license to collect in the state of Georgia which they are illegally trying to do, as well as trying to extort me for an extension of credit, which they brought elsewhere. They are also using my non-public information without my consent and authorization fraudulently reporting false I nformation. This collection agency has violated my rights as a consumer and needs to be held accountable. I do not know how much they bought the debt for nor is it my responsibility. Meridian Financial Services made their own decision and I will not allow them to profit from me through their illegal activities. I want to account to be deleted from my consumer file because its causing a lot of financial trouble including denial of credit.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
A fair resolution would be the removal of all unauthorized inquiries. These fraudulent inquiries do not benefit nor were they authorized by me and according to 15 USC 1681 c-2 if I identified these inquiries as fraudulent you have to block and remove them. On several occasions I have sent this bureau a copy of my social security card, FTC report and Drivers license and they refuse to acknowledge that they are reporting several fraudulent inquiries that are defamation to my character. It is also fair to remove all of the derogatory accounts that this entity is unable to verify by furnishing the documents with my original signature.

Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Need information about your loan balance or loan terms

Complaint:
I received a letter from the Trellis Company on XX/XX/2020 claiming that I owe {$11000.00}. They went on further to say that I defaulted on this obligation. I saw no other information about who the original lender was, and what the terms and agreements were for the loan. They simply stated that I owe {$11000.00}, and they would proceed with contacting the U.S. Department of Education to resolve the issue. It appeared that they were coercing me to make a decision. There was no other specific information as to the account number, the initial date the loan was started or which financial institution loaned me the funds. I financed my education for my degree with grants, scholarships, veterans financial aid, work study, and regular employment with two jobs. 

I need Trellis to be forthcoming with specific details. I am currently paying for defaulted student loans with an offset of my social security and income taxes with the United States Treasury. My current financial situation is dire and difficult I have fully cooperated with my lenders. I am currently on an IBR because I am at the poverty level, and I have a serious medical condition with high medical bills and prescription medicine that I take. My medicine is life critical medicine, if I do not have any or can't purchase it, I will die from not having the proper medications. I am XXXX years old and an XXXX XXXX XXXX Veteran.

Complaint:
I am stressed and displeased that I see so many fraudulent accounts on my credit report. This is really damaging my credit worthiness. I am trying to buy a home for me and my family and this is not fair. I have tried several times to get these accounts removed. Let alone, my information was in a Experian & XXXX breach some months ago so I thought you all would protect my consumer report. I do not feel that my information is being protected.This is a defamation to my character and this is a federal law violation. According to, 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 4 ) my consumer report fairness and privacy has been violated. I am upset!! I am depending on the banking system and credit reporting agency to promote my privacy and fairness and they have not. This is not right and going against my federal consumer rights. This is causing emotional and mental stress as of now. Also it is illegal these companies should NOT be furnisher people 's information to 3rd party companies so this is illegal, neglect and fraud. I have already reported this to the local police department and Federal Trade Commission. These companies and the credit bureaus can be can get sued for these damages. This is negatively effecting my livelihood and putting me in a bad space. I feel your database is inaccurate and I am filing ligation against this if these items aren't removed immediately

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
THIS IS NOT A DUPLICATE : ( " TRANSUNION '' ), In the event ( " TRANSUNION '' ) FAILS TO COMPLY, will be conditionally accepted as an agreement, of admission failing to comply with the FCRA, and among other things. 

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), I am writing to file a formal complaint against TRANSUNION, XXXX, and XXXX regarding inaccurate information reported on my consumer report. This complaint is grounded in the violation of a crucial CFPB rule concerning human trafficking. 

The CFPB, under 12 CFR 1022.142, prohibits the inclusion of adverse information in consumer reporting for cases of human trafficking. Human trafficking is a severe federal crime, also known as Trafficking in Persons ( TIP ), involving the unlawful trade of human beings against their will for commercial XXXX exploitation or forced labor. 

In my XXXX ( XXXX ) CFPB Compliant ID, XXXX ( TRANSUNION ) CFPB Complaint ID Number, and XXXX ( XXXX ) CFPB Complaint ID Number XXXX I explicitly communicated to the Consumer Reporting Agencies ( CRAs ) that they lack my lawful consent to report the mentioned accounts, as indicated in the attached notices. Regrettably, the CRAs negligently failed to comply, disregarding my will and violating my human rights. 

Human rights, as outlined in Article 4 of the Declaration of Human Rights, prohibit slavery and servitude in all forms. The CRAs have, in effect, subjected XXXX XXXX to both direct and indirect slavery and debt bondages. 

Attached are notarized documents supporting my notices. TRANSUNION, XXXX, and XXXX ( collectively the " CRAs '' ) have willfully and negligently failed to comply with multiple disputes, and I am now demanding compensation for damages, encompassing intentional infliction of emotional distress, humiliation, defamation, and other related harm. 

I hereby reserve all rights to sue, applying this to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TransUnion LLC, their parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, divisions, contractors, and all data sources and suppliers collectively referred to as the CRAs. This complaint is effective immediately. 

All Rights Reserved. 

Sincerely, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notice from XXXX XXXX that my account balance was XXXX. My account limit is XXXX. I made a XXXX payment on XX/XX/XXXX to avoid having the account over the limit. Then on XX/XX/XXXX payment of XXXX was made to XXXX XXXX and now had a XXXX balance. 

My concern is that the account was over the limit as of XX/XX/XXXX with a balance of XXXX but was paid off within 3 days. The account was not over the limit long enough to be reported to the credit bureau. I called XXXX XXXX and they stated that it should not have been reported to the credit bureau and that it was a mistake. Never the less, their actions have affected my credit score. 

I want this resolved and XXXX XXXX needs to correct the information that they have sent to all three credit bureaus.
