State: TN
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Threatened to sue you for very old debt

Complaint:
I received a phone call on my personal number saying that I now had an upcoming court date. The number was a XXXX area code, the same as mine, but I was supposed to call back an XXXX number. They stated the court case number in the message. They also called my employer, and left the same message, revealing my court case to my employer. I have not been previously notified of this debt, nor did I have any knowledge of it. They claim this is a credit card from XXXX XXXX in 2009. I contacted XXXX XXXX and they did have a record of me having a credit card, but that I paid the amount owed in full and they had no record of having to sell it to a debt collector. When I talked to the collector on the phone, they put me on hold to speak to the original creditor, and came back with a settlement agreement which they then emailed to me. I googled the name of the company- XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and was unable to find anything. I also did a reverse look up on the phone numbers given to me to contact them and couldn't find anything. I emailed them back asking for proof of ownership of this debt, and their response was that they were unable to provide it as the " discovery process '' was already over, even though this was the first time I had been notified of this debt. I am at a loss for what to do, as they claim the original creditor was XXXX XXXX, and I spoke to them and they have no record of this. I also feel that it is illegal to give out a court case number to my employer and leave it in a voicemail that anyone could have heard.

Product: Vehicle loan or lease

Issue: Managing the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Problem with the interest rate

Complaint:
I went to XXXX XXXX to buy a XXXX XXXX  with XXXX down payment. 
I was only presented with XXXX option to buy the vehicle even tho my XXXX XXXX was over XXXX. 
And I was told the rate was XXXX  % and could refinance it right away with no penalty. 
I made the interest payment like I was told by the lender for the first 2 months and when I tried to refi the XXXX I found out the rate was actually XXXX  % and that I now was 2 months late on the payments because I was only paid the interest. 
I tried to get the interest rate and payment lowered and was told they have no other products and that I would have to keep the loan or get it refinanced in which I cant because the payoff was higher than the XXXX was worth. 
Then after I paid on it for XXXX  years I had to take out a loan for the same amount that I paid for it and now I am out XXXX  of dollars and still paying on a XXXX  that should have been paid off years ago.

Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Problem making or receiving payments

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, there was already a person trying to replace my debit card in the XXXX XXXX Chase bank and it cost {$5.00} on my card for the express delivery fee, but this action was unsuccessful. On XX/XX/XXXX, someone deposited a fake check with an amount of {$2300.00} and transferred {$1500.00} from my daughters account to my account. Then, this person went to the bank with my ID and withdrew {$3000.00} right away. The signature on the withdrawal slip was different from my signature. The Chase bank employee didnt double check the signature on the withdrawal slip with my signature and gave the money to the unknown person. Before this event happened I already warned the Chase bank and told them to make a note about if anyone wants to withdraw money, must show both my green card and ID. Its the banks employees issue that they didnt check my notes on my account. At the moment we found out our money was gone, we had contact the bank directly. But they didnt ask for anything just tell us to wait for the investigation results. Suddenly, the chase bank ask us to had the police report in order to continue on the investigation. After a long process, we fax the police report in one of the Chase bank, then they just tell us to wait. We tried to call in every few weeks and the answer they gave us was our case already close and it wont be reopened again because we didnt provide the police report within 60 days. This is unfair and irresponsible because none of the employees had mentioned this in the pass before and all the time when we called in they always gave us a perfunctory response.

Complaint:
It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts, or items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA the 3 credit bureaus are required by law to remove & block any accounts or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these files.

If the credit bureaus do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
My name is XXXX XXXX and I am filing this complaint against Experian for violating my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. During a reinvestigation, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 7 ) of the FCRA, I was supposed to receive a description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information on my credit file from Experian no later than 15 days after receiving my request for that description. I requested a description of the procedures used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information reporting to my file through CFPB complaint numbers XXXX, XXXX and by certified mail # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. It is now XX/XX/XXXX, and I have not received anything from Experian regarding this matter. It is my belief that no such records exist and my right to privacy has been violated for profit. My financial reputation is being ruined due to Experians blatant disregard for federal law. It is my belief that Experian feels comfortable committing blatant violations of the FCRA because they know the CFPB wont enforce the laws set forth by congress as shown time and time again. Experian has caused me sleepless nights, stress, XXXX, and XXXX due to its profits over the law mentality. Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 5 ) ( A ) If after any reinvestigation any information disputed by a consumer is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer.

Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2018 I received a obscure email notification with subject line Notice of decreased credit limit. This was unexpected and very surprising. When I requested further information from secure message online, the reply was : your request was forwarded to the appropriate department. Several days later still no information provided. 
I also sent a message to a social media rep who subsequently connected me with credit management department. They in turn stated that my report is showing some very compromising information that would prevent them from reinstating my credit limit. They refused to provide any specifics over the phone or a written letter in this regard. I have checked with all credit reporting company reports and haven't found any concerns, except small discrepancies, that would justify this type of action. 
As of now my credit reporting from XXXX is further compromising my credit file as a result of this action. 
I have been a customer for many years and never been subjected to such actions. I find it very deceptive and questionable and hope you can investigate this further and help other customers from this type of business conduct from XXXX.

Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
I have interest free promotional purchases on my Care Credit account. Every month I have difficulty paying those promotions off because my payments arent being allocated correctly. I have to call or virtually chat with a representative at least 3 to 4 times after each payment to get it fixed. Each representative tells me that theyve allocated my payment as requested only to not have done so. I know that this is a tactic used by Care Credit in hopes that the consumer wont pay off the promotional purchase and they can charge interest. I make most of my payments online and then immediately contact them to allocate the payments. I have even tried making payments directly over the phone in hopes that my payments would be allocated correctly without having to contact th multiple times. That did not help either.
