Company: I.C. System, Inc.
State: MN
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint:
In the past XXXX we have moved into several different rental properties. Each time, we returned our cable internet equipment per the agreement. We noticed that the branch office where we were returning equipment was becoming increasingly defunct and disorganized, each time becoming more and more frustrated with their services. Each time we returned equipment, we were told that all we needed to do was leave it with the customer service employee at the front counter and every single time we did. 

Over the past XXXX years, XXXX XXXX has attempted to report a debt on my credit report to XXXX. The other credit reporting agencies will not accept their request because it clearly lacks sufficient basis in fact for reporting. Yet, XXXX repeatedly allows this vague report of my credit as a collection. XXXX has been repeatedly told and warned that the debt they are claiming has no basis in fact yet they continue to report the debt to my XXXX ( only ) credit. 

The collection agency has also been repeatedly warned and told that the debt is not legitimate. I do not owe them any money for any equipment or any services and any claim that I do based on the incompetence of their employees is absurd. If the equipment is lost, it was lost in their possession not mine. Consumers have no use for cable internet equipment after the service has discontinued.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: IL
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: Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card

Complaint:
I was charged to my Capital One Savor credit card in the amount of {$110.00} on XX/XX/19 with a charge showing as XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I contacted Capital One ( CO ) when I saw the charge on my account to let them know that I did not authorize or recognize the charge. They temporarily credited the amount to my account and they claim to have conducted an investigation. They claim that the credit card was physically present at the time of the alleged transaction and that that makes me responsible for it. They charged the amount of {$110.00} back to my card on XX/XX/19. On the day of the original fraudulent charge I was in XXXX, XXXX flying home to the United States. The charge says XXXX XXXX on it, but I have never in my life been in XXXX XXXX. CO has been unable to provide me with an address and exact time that the card was allegedly charged. I cant even find an establishment with a name that matches any part of the charge name that is in XXXX where I was on XX/XX/19. CO does not have a receipt of the transaction, they have no signature from me ( or anyone else for that matter ) for the transaction, there is no itemized information about what the charged alleged service or good may be, and there is no name of an individual at the alleged establishment that is known. Honestly I dont even know if there is a human being associated with this charge on the other end and it seems like CO has no idea if there is either, and yet CO is still asking me to pay for it. I reviewed all other charges from my trip to XXXX and I recognize all others as authorized, but this one I did not consent for and do not recognize. I know for a fact that I did consent to any individual purchase of over {$100.00} on the day that I departed from XXXX. Furthermore, I did not have the credit card in my physical presence and eyesight the entire time I was in XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX ). I handed the card over to merchants on several occasions for them to run it through for other charges that I recognize ( like for a dinner or gas ). So, it is possible that at some point a person that I gave my card to then charged my card for an unknown and unauthorized charge unbeknownst to me. Also, I never received a written letter from CO stating the results of their investigation. They say that they mailed it but they didnt provide any delivery confirmation and I am still waiting for this correspondence today. In summary, I did not authorize this charge or receive any further details about the alleged merchant associated with the charge, and therefore I do not believe I should be held responsible for paying for it.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681, section 602a ), it is emphasized that consumer reporting agencies must carry out their significant responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a commitment to respecting the consumer 's right to privacy. XXXX, Transunion and XXXX function as consumer reporting agencies, and I, as the consumer, possess the right to ensure that my private information remains undisclosed, as supported by 15 USC 6801. This statute declares the Congress 's policy that financial institutions have an ongoing obligation to safeguard the privacy and confidentiality of their customers ' nonpublic personal information.

The entity providing information to credit agencies, considered a financial institution under this title, is governed by 15 USC 1681, section 604a ( 2 ). This section specifies that consumer reporting agencies may furnish a consumer report only in accordance with the written instructions of the respective consumer. To emphasize, the financial institution and the consumer reporting agencies, XXXX, Transunion and XXXX, lack my consent and written authorization to disclose this information. 

Referencing 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ), it is stated that a financial institution can not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party without providing the consumer with an explanation of how to exercise the nondisclosure option. Unfortunately, the entity providing information to credit agencies failed to inform me of my right to exercise this option. Furthermore these institutions have been given notice of me exercising said option of nondisclosure.

Furthermore, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) expressly prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including certain adverse information in a consumer report without proper authorization. The adverse item being reported without my consent violates this law, as does 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( A ), which prohibits furnishing inaccurate information to consumer reporting agencies.

Moreover, 15 U.S. Code 1681e mandates that consumer reporting agencies maintain reasonable procedures to prevent violations and limit the furnishing of consumer reports to specific purposes. XXXX, Transunion and XXXX appear to be falling short in maintaining these reasonable procedures as these accounts have been disputed with each of them multiple times.

Also, 15 U.S. Code 1681c states that Except as authorized under subsection ( b ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information : Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years.

Company: OneMain Finance Corporation
State: IL
Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Struggling to pay your loan

Complaint:
I needed a small loan to keep my mortgage up to date as I was dangerously close to foreclosure, so I reached out to One Main Financial Group and got approved for a loan based on my income and assets at the time. The process was fine for a while until my XXXX Payments were discontinued and then my ex lost his job and stopped making payments of child support and alimony, that put me at quite a disadvantage financially ( - {$3000.00} ) as now I was still behind in other payments as well as the loan making less than half of what I was making before. At first I communicated my issues and tried to make up the difference but I just couldn't afford it. I was barely putting food on the table. Eventually I was served a Summons to appear in court, I attempted to file an Answer several times with the state of Illinois but they kept sending the paperwork back with no instruction of how to do it properly, I even called the Circuit Clerk and she said the E-filing system was just a tool that they offered and how to navigate it was a mystery to them. I filed at least 7 times and was rejected every time ie : one such rejection was because the file was uploaded upside down. I spent alot of money and time trying to Answer the Summons but to no avail. I mistakenly assumed that my attempts would at least be noted but in dealing with that I missed the court date and of course now in default. Now One Main is threatening to garnish my checks for an astronomical amount that exceeds the original loan. What can I do?

I've been trying to reach out from their department for several months now and Ive never received any response from their side. Im wondering if they have received all of my letters and what actions have they taken to resolve my concerns. This matter has been pending for so long and Im really hopeless knowing that my record will definitely give bad impressions to future creditors who will get to see my credit reports.

I remember the last time I wrote a letter to their department, I asked for the reinvestigation of these items and I was waiting for your response or results but I didnt get any after 30 days.
