Complaint:
I have a high interest rate small balance on a CARE CREDIT SYNCRONY bank card. XXXX  XXXX XXXX attempted to do a balance trasnfer for me over 2 months ago, and it never posted. I called CARE CREDIT and was told they do not do electronic balance transfers and had to make a payment and was charged a late fee. They said they would accept a balance transfer check from XXXX and provided an address to send the payment to. XXXX sent a balance transfer check to CARE CREDIT on XX/XX/XXXX for the payoff of {$610.00} and some change. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from XXXX stating that CARE CREDIT had not applied the check they issued and to please call them and find out why. CARE CREDIT HAS NOW stated they never received the check and that it was mailed to the wrong address. THE CHECK WAS MAILED TO THE address they provided. So now, I am going to be charged ANOTHER late fee and need to pay ANOTHER payment since they can not accept a balance transfer and THEY PROVIDED ME THE INCORRECT ADDRESS TO MAIL IT TO!!!! I was given a XXXX address by the person I spoke with on XX/XX/XXXX, and yesterday, the lady says it's XXXX FL!!!! I asked for a supervisor and was left on hold. I am getting the run around because I am trying to pay off my account with a zero interest rate account.

I recently submitted a request for investigation of an Acct Number : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Ive submitted enough information regarding the fraudulent account thats open in my name I have provided information for your company to have carried out a reasonable investigation of this dispute. If you had investigated properly rather then using your e-Oscar system you would have noticed that this account is not mine which your companies have claimed to Verified. Since youve obviously neglected to investigate this account thoroughly I am demanding you remove this account off my profile. It is at this time that I will point out the in Cushman v TransUnion, Stevenson v. TRW ( XXXX ), and Richardson v. Fleet, XXXX et, the courts ruled each and every time that the CRA couldnt merely Parrot information from the creditors and collection agencies that they have conduct an independent REASONABLE investigation to ensure the validity of the debt and honesty/integrity of the creditors/CA in question. Sending out a generic form through the e-Oscar system that doesnt even contain my reasons for the dispute is not reasonable.

If you dont initiate an investigation regarding my dispute, as it is my right under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I will have to take legal action to protect my credit rating and myself. Which Im sure you are aware each violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act allows damages of {$1000.00} should this matter ends up in court. 
I look forward to an expedite resolution of this matter Thank you.

Complaint:
I purchased a dress from XXXX and returned the dress. I have proof of the return. 
The purchase remains on my XXXX account even though I contacted the number on the back of the credit card statement ( I have proof of delivery of the dispute. ) XXXX has reported this to the three credit bureaus. I filed a dispute with each of them providing them with the documentation of my return, however, the credit bureaus did not remove this erroneous reporting from my file. XXXX continues to bill me for the dress - a statement was received in todays mail (XX/XX/XXXX ). 
I don't know what else to do. I do not have the dress, it was returned, and I am not going to pay for something that I do not have.

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2023, my husband and I had the pleasure of meeting with XXXX XXXX XXXX, a sales representative from XXXX XXXX, who sold us XXXX windows for our home. During our meeting, XXXX XXXX assured us that we were approved for a payment plan of {$190.00} per month with no interest for 18 months. In order to proceed, I signed a release for my credit report to be accessed. 

Unfortunately, due to technical difficulties with his device, XXXX XXXX was unable to provide us with any paperwork or contracts at the time. He assured us that XXXX would send us all the necessary documentation. However, despite my repeated attempts via phone calls and emails to XXXX XXXX, I have not received any response or the requested paperwork. 

To add to our frustration, on XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX, the windows were installed in our home, with the exception of a XXXX obscure window for our downstairs bathroom. Instead, a clear window was sent, contrary to XXXX XXXX 's promise of an obscure window. This discrepancy has yet to be rectified. 

Further complicating matters, on XX/XX/2023, I received a letter from Service Finance stating that a payment of {$380.00} was due on XX/XX/XXXX. This came as a surprise, as the agreed-upon terms were vastly different from what was stated in the letter. Upon contacting Service Finance, I discovered that a contract had been signed with my misspelled name and my husband 's name, outlining payment terms of {$380.00} at 17.99 % interest. I must emphasize that I had never seen nor agreed to these terms until XXXX XXXX XXXX from the complaint department at Service Finance sent me the contract. 

Despite XXXX XXXX 's efforts to contact XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX on my behalf, I have received paperwork on the windows but no communication or documentation from XXXX XXXX. Additionally, XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX XXXX has yet to respond to my inquiries regarding the fraudulent contract addendum and the promised corrections, as well as the installation of the bathroom window.
