Complaint:
My account and my personal information was used by fraudsters to gain access to my checking accounts. They also had access to my debit cards information including my PIN. It was easy for them to compromise my bank accounts. Twice XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has closed my checking accounts, and in XXXX occasions they have cancelled and reissued my debit cards this year alone. As a result of this theft and my account being compromised I couldnt meet my obligations to my creditors on my due dates as the money meant to pay my creditors were withdrawn before my monthly payments were processed. So the funds that were meant to take care of my bills had disappeared from my account. This also led to my accounts being late for the first time with a number of creditors reporting late on my credit I have worked very hard to build. I now have a new checking account from XXXX XXXX and I am just now trying to restore my credibility back up. The Creditors affected are : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, My line of credit with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX personal loan, XXXX XXXX, and my utility bills. 
I contacted each creditor to request that they show understanding, due to the theft that happened to my checking account on XX/XX/2023, with proof from my bank XXXX, not to report any late credit reporting on my credit report as I work hard to catch up with my payments. But as it turned out they still went ahead and reported those late payments. As a result of this terrible incident my credit is now at its lowest best and have dented my hopes of doing business that will bring in revenue for my livelihood and that of my family. I am therefore requesting with immediate effect that these lates be removed immediate from my credit report.

Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers
Sub-issue: Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card

Complaint:
To Whom It May Concern : On XX/XX/XXXX I signed up for the XXXX  XXXX Mileage Card after speaking with an XXXX XXXX representative. The representative told me about the credit card and the rewards, but failed to mention there were two different versions of the credit card ( " Signature '' and " Platinum ). The rewards I was told about, and sold on, were for the " Signature '' card, where as the " Platinum '' card has only a fraction of the rewards. After she informed me only about the " Signature '' rewards, I wanted to sign up, so she walked me through the process of applying for the card. 

Upon approval, I was told I would be receiving the " Platinum '' card, at which time I was unaware of the difference, or the existence of the " Signature '' card. Today, XX/XX/XXXX I finally learned about the difference between the cards after speaking with another XXXX XXXX representative. Had I been told upfront about both cards and the process for approving each of the cards, I would have either not applied, or if I had applied and gotten the same approval for only the " Platinum '' card, I would have called the credit card reconsideration line to speak with someone about getting approved for the " Signature '' card.

I have been reaching out to these companies since XX/XX/2023 requesting verification on these inaccurate unknown accounts, but these companies have ignored my request and continue to violate me as a consumer and violate the FCRA every month.

The information uploaded is showing proof where these companies are all reporting different inaccurate unknown information and each month updating old accounts withe new information monthly that is damaging my credit every month which is illegal. I have been denied credit due this unfair treatment and I demand this information be deleted and updated immediately.

Company: HYUNDAI CAPITAL AMERICA
State: OH
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Lease
Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Problem when attempting to purchase vehicle at the end of the lease

Complaint:
My wife and I leased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX XXXX. We made every payment on time and purchased the vehicle prior to the lease expiring ( XX/XX/2108 ). My Credit Union ( CU ) sent Hyundai the funds and the title was transferred. Hyundai was slow to issue a check to the County Clerk for the taxes. My CU had to redo my loan papers to account for and to pay the taxes that were necessary to transfer the vehicle. My wife and I received a check from Hyundai made to the XXXX County Clerk. I voided the Hyundai check and asked that it be re-issued to my wife and I. After several weeks went by I called Hyundai in XX/XX/2018 to ask when we would receive the check. I was told that they would send a check in 3 to 4 weeks with no request for additional information. After receiving nothing in the mail I followed up with a call on XX/XX/2018. I was told that a check was not sent and that I needed to provide Hyundai with proof that the taxes were paid and then it would be another 3 to 4 weeks prior to us receiving a check. I explained that we are now paying interest on the tax money with my CU loan and that Hyundai is receiving the benefit of holding my money for months in the interim. The onus should not be on us to take time from work to prove to them that the vehicle is transferred and that the taxes are paid. Hyundai is already paid in full. Hyundai also refused to check to see if they were still listed with the BMV as owners or to confirm with my CU if a transfer took place. Hyundai could easily have checked my state 's website or checked Hyundai 's own licensing or tax department to verify the transfer. When I asked Hyundai what would happen if I would not have submitted my payments on time for their vehicle they stated they would have taken it or filed suit against me to recoup the funds. When I asked why it was ok for them to hold our money after we fulfilled all of our obligations for the transaction without any repercussions to them, Hyundai stated " that's the way it is ''. I asked Hyundai to specifically tell me what proof they wanted me to send and they could not tell me exactly what it was they wanted. They simply said that they just needed proof. The burden is now on me to provide some " proof '' and submit it in the hopes that it is acceptable. If so, in another 3 to 4 weeks we may get our money returned. Meanwhile, we had to pay licensing and insurance for our lease buyout vehicle but can not get our own money back to offset our expenses. This is nothing more than a giant company bullying and taking advantage of a small consumer while not caring about the impact to the individuals.

Complaint:
I had purchased a XXXX XXXX Gift set worth {$100.00} from Macy 's store ( MACY S XXXX XXXX XXXX ) in XXXX, IL on XXXX XXXX, 2019. The amount of {$100.00} was debited from my card and also an additional {$39.00} was debited from my debit card for unknown reason. I had applied for Macy 's card at the time of purchase but I did not receive any card and hence I also did not use the Macy 's card for any transactions. I had asked the customer care to close the account within a month i.e. on XX/XX/2019 without receiving any card. 

In addition to an unknown transaction for {$39.00}, I am also asked to pay {$48.00} every month for no reason. This amount has now accumulated to {$270.00}. Macy 's did not give me any reasoning for asking me to pay this amount when I have not received or used any Macy 's card and also I have paid the full amount for the product. I have been also said that the product payment was not done even after I had faxed my bank statement showing the debited amount and transactions and still Macy 's did not help me one bit despite speaking to several customer service representatives.

My account is also been reported as Delinquent account which has greatly impacted my credit score.
