Company: Continental Finance Company, LLC
State: FL
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
I am writing regarding a banking matter concerning a Credit Card Bank failure to refund money from a transaction where a product was purchased and returned to XXXX XXXX. ( See Attachments # XXXX ) As you can see Verve Credit Card Statement, Closing Date XX/XX/XXXX ( See Attachment # XXXX ) Verve acknowledged the refund and credited my account for {$540.00}. 

Verve issued a check to me dated XX/XX/XXXX, which I attempted a mobile deposit for {$540.00} via XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. Unfortunately, the mobile deposit was rejected, and the money was withdrawn from my account on XX/XX/XXXX. The transactions can be seen in the screenshots from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX website, including the {$21.00} Check Chargeback Fee. ( See Attachment # 3 ) I was told that type of check had to be deposited in person, so I attempted to physically deposit the check for {$540.00} at XXXX XXXX XXXX. You can see in XXXX XXXX XXXX  research the check was Returned Unpaid and included a {$12.00} Returned Item Fee. ( Attachment # 4 ) I have never received any money from Verve as a refund. Over the past year I have attempted to resolve this matter via telephone and the US Mail, and they have records to prove what Im saying is true. My most recent interaction was with XXXX XXXX, Customer Experience Support Analyst, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. She essentially asked for items I had already provided, and she stalled hoping Id go away. But Im not going away until I receive payment of the refund. 

I have never received the payment I am owed by this criminal operation. They have withheld money I could have earned interest on, cost me {$33.00} Returned Check Fees, cost me time and money mailing evidential documentation, and untold hours of time trying to prove I never received the money. I know it would be a simple thing for them to see if that check was cashed. I can see when my checks clear. 

Please help me receive my refund from this unreputable bank, and to pressure them into obtaining a reliable accounting system, and hiring reputable employees capable of assisting honest customers.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TN
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Nothing has been done on these accounts. There are numerous violations showing on my report. There are accounts that Equifax stated, were deleted, after their investigation. However, they are still showing on my report well over a month after they completed their so-called investigation. Also there have been XXXX accounts added by XXXX, after their investigation, that were not reported previously. These are accounts that are several years old, that the other XXXX were reporting already. I have called all three Bureaus to dispute these issues and all I am told is that I basically have no control over what is done because they can report whatever they want. They would not tell me who did my investigation and I want all the information pertaining to the investigation they claim to have performed. I want the name of my XXXX, their role in the company, who they spoke to, and if they contacted everyone that they are legally required to contact according to the FCRA. I will be notifying the Attorney General over this and I will be seeking litigation if nothing changes. How can my credit report be accurate if all three Bureaus are reporting something different? I have documented all the violations over the last 5 months, and I am prepared to take things to the next step legally to make sure that all the information on my credit report is accurate.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
Dear Manager of XXXX  XXXX XXXX, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to address an ongoing issue regarding my account with XXXX  XXXX XXXX, which has been a source of concern since XXXX XXXX, XXXX. On that date, I took the initiative to settle my account by making a payment of {$800.00}, as per the guidance provided by your representatives. At the time, they assured me that within 30-45 days, the remaining balance would be removed from my credit report. 

Regrettably, despite my diligent efforts to resolve this matter, I have encountered significant challenges in achieving a resolution. It has come to my attention that XXXX has already removed the disputed account from my credit report as per our agreement. However, the other major credit reporting agencies have failed to update their records, continuing to report an inaccurate balance of {$1800.00}. This discrepancy is both perplexing and concerning. 

I am fully aware of my rights as a consumer, including the right to dispute inaccuracies directly with the creditor. In pursuit of a resolution, I have made numerous requests for documentation over the past few months, but unfortunately, these requests have gone unanswered. To clarify, when I settled the account, the outstanding balance stood at {$2200.00}, and I promptly paid {$800.00} as agreed upon. 

It is crucial to emphasize that the current situation represents a direct violation of my consumer rights. I hereby demand an immediate and unequivocal deletion of this erroneous account from my credit report. I believe this is a fair and just request given the circumstances surrounding our prior agreement. 

I kindly request your prompt attention to this matter, as it is negatively affecting my financial standing. I am hopeful that we can swiftly resolve this issue and rectify the inaccuracies on my credit report, thereby upholding the integrity of my financial history. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

Complaint:
I have been saddled with a collection account for what seems to be a three-year old cable bill. I have no knowledge of this debt. When I spoke with XXXX, they stated that they did not have much information on the debt itself. They also stated that they on the spot adjusted the balance from XXXX to XXXX. Then my credit report collection is saying that I paid down XXXX dollars, which I did not. I both do not owe the debt and did not pay towards it. As far as I understand, simply from their information, they have assigned me an inaccurate number. I did not pay XXXX dollars a month for cable, nor did I miss any payments, nor did I pay XXXX of the XXXX alleged.

State: VA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2019 I sent Lexis Nexis a method of verification letter for a erroneously reporting Bankruptcy on my Lexis Nexis file, which has been confirmed was received on the morning of XX/XX/2019. Per FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 7 ) provides : A consumer reporting agency shall provide to a consumer a description referred to in paragraph ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ) by not later than 15 days after receiving a request from the consumer for that description. 
I have disputed the accuracy of this item on multiple occasions. I have asked Lexis Nexis to verify this information with the furnisher or original creditor on multiple occasions. Lexis Nexis has stated its been verified previously but when I contacted the U.S Bankruptcy Court XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  to find out how this erroneous item got reported on my credit report, they informed me that they DO NOT SHARE ANY KIND OF INFORMATION WITH CREDIT BUREAUS OR THIRD PARTIES. So, Lexis Nexis did not and has not complied with the FCRA rules of verification. Furthermore and most important they have not complied with the FCRA rule stated above and provided me with the method of verification within the time frame allotted. Therefore this item needs to be immediately deleted and confirmation of its deletion sent to me within 15 days. At the time of submitting this complaint I haven't received any communication concerning this from Lexis Nexis. Please insure my rights are protected from any further harm this has already caused me. Thank you
