Complaint:
I have two credit cards showing on my credit report from XXXX, however, neither of these accounts are mine. I have a relationship with XXXX, but only as the provider for my checking / savings accounts, never as a credit card servicer. 

The credit cards were likely a result of identity theft, as the address on the account was an address I have not used in several years ( XXXX XXXX, FL vs. XXXX XXXX, FL ). I have spoken to XXXX in depth about these accounts ; they have assured me they would be removed, but to date, they have not been removed or adjusted to reflect a dispute. This is preventing me from getting credit with anyone, including XXXX.

Product: Credit card
Issue: Delinquent account

Complaint:
I deposited {$500.00} with USAA and received a secured credit card. I paid my balance every month and only had the card a few months before USAA close my account with no notice, now warning and tried to charge me some {$80.00} in late fees I did not owe. They took my {$500.00} deposit which was fine. I called and officially closed the account yet after a year and a half they still show my account was active with the credit bureau and constantly late and add amounts to the so called fees owed every month. This account was closed and should be showing as active and fees accruing. I want this corrected!

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute the inclusion of this bankruptcy on my credit report. The dates filed and reported, as well as the closing dates, do not align.

Furthermore, the involvement of an unauthorized third party adds to the absurdity of this situation.

Product: Consumer Loan
Sub-product: Vehicle loan
Issue: Problems when you are unable to pay

Complaint:
My truck was repossessed while I was in the hospital. I was in contact via email with a representative who was made aware of the situation. Upon logging in, it appears that my principal balance has not budged and I have had the loan for over a year. My {$400.00} a month is going straight to fees and interest. This is highway robbery. I have now investigated the finance company further and recognized that others have been victim to this company. They are a subprime loan company in the business of financing cars for higher than they are worth and then repossessing them as soon as they can. They then turn around and auction the car and garnish wages of the customer for the remaining balance ( well over what the car is worth ). XXXX XXXX XXXX and Gateway financial are in the business of ripping off desperate customers who have to get a vehicle right away for work purposes and are mislead. The truth in lending is not honest. I knew when XXXX at XXXX XXXX was having us quickly sign the paperwork that I should have had him slow down. He just verbally summarized each page we signed and I had no idea what I was getting into. I thought the payment was {$170.00} a month ( which would be fair for a used base XXXX XXXX that has been beat and wo n't run for longer than another year if that ). That must have been one of the pages that he literally summarized ( as they were closing at the time ) and flipped the page quickly. I had no idea I was signing for a 5 year loan of {$380.00} a month for this junk of a truck. I am under water in the truck and my finances. I tried to make it happen once I found out the actual monthly payment, but obviously I got a month behind and they just repossessed it even though I was in contact and informed her that I just had XXXX and was in the hospital. This financial institution combined with XXXX XXXX XXXX needs to be thoroughly investigated in regards to their loans. I did n't even think they were allowed to give a loan for more than the blue book value? I am so confused and feeling scammed. I tried to get through it and feel completely bullied and lied to. Now my fiance does not have a truck for work to even make the payments!!! I do n't know what we are going to do.

Complaint:
I was a customer of Lexington Law on a few occasions. I may have used their services in the earlier XXXX ( using an old XXXX email address ), but I have email XXXX correspondence from them from about XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX, and again from about XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX. 

During that time, I paid as much as $ XXXX up front for their credit repair services, with very little results. I subsequently canceled the service because their sales reps kept trying to coerce me to stick with the premium plan. 

Now, all of these years later, Im hearing that Lexington Laws actions were unlawful and that theres a class action lawsuit against them. How does your class action lawsuit affect consumers, like me, who paid out thousands of dollars to Lexington Law?
