State: IL
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:
I recently obtained copies of my consumer reports from the credit reporting agencies ( XXXX, Trans Union, and XXXX ) to discover that your company 's information continues to be reported in a manner that violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). As previously communicated in past notices, I have raised concerns about one or more potential violations in the past, emphasizing the importance of complying with consumer rights and FCRA regulations. Specifically, I am referring to the closed accounts associated with the following : 1. XXXX XXXX Credit Card Account # XXXX 2. ) 1. ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : LOAN # XXXX, ACCOUNT # XXXX. 

Upon reviewing my credit reports, I have noticed that XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting my experiences with your company in a manner that raises significant concerns about potential violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The specific matter of concern pertains to the categorization of my line of credit with your company as " utilization '' and the categorization of my payment history / status with your company as transactions, on my consumer reports. It is my firm belief, supported by the relevant legal provisions, that your company is unlawfully reporting this information on my consumer reports. I would like to draw your attention to 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ), which states : " 2 ) Exclusions.Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term 'consumer report ' does not include ( A ) subject to section 1681s3 of this title, any ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. '' The law is unequivocal in its statement that information pertaining to transactions or experiences between the consumer ( myself ) and the person ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), making the report, should not be included on consumer credit reports. Utilization is inherently an experience with the line of credit extended between the consumer ( myself ) and your company,, which qualifies it as an experience that should not be reported on my consumer credit reports. Payment history or status is inherently transactions, between the consumer ( myself ) and the person ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) which qualifies it as information that should not be reported on my consumer credit reports! By reporting this transaction on all of my consumer reports, XXXX XXXX XXXX appears to be in clear violation of the FCRA ( 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) ).

Complaint:
In XXXX I used my Capital One credit card to pay for a travel trip through XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I paid for the trip in full on XX/XX/XXXX and it was {$3000.00}. The company filed bankruptcy shortly thereafter and I was notified on XX/XX/XXXX that my trip would not be rescheduled. I took steps to get reimbursed through Capital One but they have told me now, three times, that the time limit has expired. I have already sent in a letter with all the requested documents requesting my case be reopened and I be reimbursed, but they are still telling me that I am out of time and they will not help me. They have reimbursed me twice, but then charged my account again for the amount of the trip, saying that I was reimbursed in error. This is the second complaint I have filed. The original complaint was apparently closed, although I was never notified of any updates. I did not know that I had to check the website for updates, and I was never notified via email or telephone. I have also contacted the company ( XXXX XXXX ) who is now back in business, but they only thing they have offered me is an account credit for another trip XXXX filing another complaint with the Consumer Finance Bureau. I have a baby due in XXXX and can not afford to STILL be missing this money from my credit card. Also, because Capital One charged my account again for this trip, I have beeb paying extremely unnecessary interest on the credit card. I will also not be able to accept the companies offer on a credit for another trip, as I will have a newborn baby soon. Can someone please help me!
