Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I have tried and tried to get Experian and my creditors by disputing through both to correctly report the accounts that were in bankruptcy. I noticed that XXXX and XXXX have made more of an effort but Experian has not. My spouse is having the same issues with Experian. Our Ch XXXX discharged. Post discharge, creditors are not allowed to report us a having a balance due or late. I have attached some print screens of my credit report with Experian report as of XXXX. They are telling me that I have 6 negative and delinquent accounts with bad payment history affecting my credit score. How can this be when 100 % of my debts were included in my Ch XXXX bankruptcy ( except the older, good credit ones that were paid off prior to our filing on XX/XX/XXXX ).? I have attached a discharge letter, claims history, and other evidence. If you will note, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is showing a failure to pay in XXXX ( see the red FP ). They are not allowed to show me late in XXXX. You cant show lates or balances past my petition on XX/XX/XXXX. I have the legal right to open my bankruptcy case up again and file injunctions against all XXXX credit bureaus and every single one of my creditors, as they are all in violation of the bankruptcy discharge order. Might I remind them there is case law to support my position and claims : There is case law to support this : XXXX vs. XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX, XXXX ( Bankr. XXXX ). Here, the court relied heavily on two of my cases, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( In re XXXX ), XXXX XXXX  XXXX ( Bankr. XXXX XXXX ) and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( In re XXXX ), XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Bankr. XXXX XXXX ), This willful refusal to correct my record post-discharge is robbing me of a fresh start. Also, both XXXX and Experian are now refusing to allow me to dispute accounts online. They are requiring me to send in all of my personal information and dispute by mail. This practice should be outlawed as it goes against what is supposed to be their purpose and that is to protect the economic system and the creditors. They are asking us to put everything in an envelope that someone could steal our identity with. I am not going to do this and I am surprised that the banking industry, who loses XXXX every year to identity theft, has n't lobbied against this practice by the credit bureaus. I will NEVER be putting my social security card, drivers license, birth certificate and other requested identification into one envelope in the mail. That is not only the stupidest thing anyone has ever asked me to do but also a risk that I should not be asked to take and the credit bureaus should be obliged to handle my disputes regardless of this.

Company: Absolute Recovery Services, LLC
State: TN
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
I contacted Absolute Recovery Services in XX/XX/XXXX in regards to a letter that I received concerning an alleged debt that was owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$1100.00}. I requested a copy of all documents that were submitted as of this alleged debt and I reviewed the information that was inaccurate. They stated that I breached my lease agreement, caused damage to property and I owed rent for XX/XX/XXXX. This is inaccurate and incorrect information and I sent a copy of the XXXX Police Department report to support the alleged damage claims to ARS in XXXX of XXXX along with rental receipt for the last month of rent which was XX/XX/XXXX. However, they stated that they had an obligation to their clients and that the only way that this could be resolved is that I pay the debt. I do not agree with paying debts that I do not owe and I firmly believe that it is unfair. I sent in all the documents to the credit bureau after Absolute Recovery Services stated that they could not and would not remove it from my credit file. They were removed from my credit file but ARS reported it again after I disputed the collection. They have a signed copy of the lease that stated the expiration date of XX/XX/XXXX, the have a copy of the police report that states the damage was vandalism, and the rent receipt for the last month of rent. The ledger and the move out statement was also enclosed as their proof but it is not a legally binding contract and by law can not serve as one by law. They violated the FCRA by reporting inaccurate and incorrect information to my XXXX, XXXX  and XXXX  credit report not once but twice XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: MA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems
Sub-issue: Problem with rewards from credit card

Complaint:
I have a Wells Fargo Visa XXXX XXXX card. It was in the terms of the card that if I spend {$50000.00} on the card in a XXXX span, my redemption rate for airfare would increase to XXXX per point. I was aiming to achieve this benefit between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 

In a call to Wells Fargo in XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX I got confirmation of this benefit, the representative found the bullet point about it in the terms and read it to me, and told me that the redemption value should change automatically once I spent the {$50000.00}. Wells Fargo keeps summaries of customers calls in their records. 

It seems that the terms of the card were updated in XXXX and the benefit I was working toward was removed. I was not notified of the change to the terms, and continued to use the card for every transaction I could in an effort to reach the threshold. 

Once I reached {$50000.00} in XXXX and noticed the redemption rate had not changed, I called Wells Fargo to find out why. No one could give me an answer and the credit card team and rewards team just kept sending me back and forth between each other. When I checked the card terms it said at the top it was updated in XXXX, so I inferred that the airfare redemption rate benefit was removed. 

I find it suspicious that it was removed so soon after my call confirming I was understanding the benefit correctly. I dont know about the legality of changing the terms of a card without notification but it is a shady business practice at the least. 

Ive been a cardholder for 11 years and was finally going to achieve the chief benefit of the card, only to have XXXX pull the rug out.

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

Complaint:
Time has already passed but up until now, I havent heard any kind of response and this was my many attempts from the 3 Credit Bureaus which made me decide to seek assistance from you. They have shown negligence and an act of refusal of complying with my request. I know for a fact that they are to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act law, to provide proof, documents, and give definite and accurate responses, within the given statutory time. However, if they failed to do so, they are obliged to correct the accounts which are erroneous and unverified. Their unfavorable and unacceptable actions have been hurting my credit scores immensely. Please see below the accounts I am concerned of and kindly help me to delete these Charge off and late closed accounts XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} - I need the following investigated account name, date of last activity, and opening date. I believe this information may be wrong. I need this removed immediately. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Owed : {$2900.00} - I believe this account is reporting inaccurately. I do not recall ever having a legal obligation with this company nor do I believe one exists. Please provide me verifiable proof this account belongs to me. I request a signed contract which is the ONLY LEGAL authority that stipulates an agreement. Please remove it. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : {$160.00} - The limit to this account was a fraction of the amount due it was stating. That is utterly unfathomable! Had a proper investigation been conducted you would have seen the error and corrected it immediately. You failed to do your job ; you must now REMOVE THIS ITEM ALTOGETHER. XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$560.00} - I requested an investigation and the removal of the charge-off status. No changes were made. No investigation was conducted at all. You had optimal time to review this matter and make the appropriate corrections, you elected not to. Please remove this item immediately.
