State: OH
Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: International money transfer
Issue: Other transaction problem

Complaint:
During the past XXXX Tax Year, I have made approximately XXXX Credit Card Purchases as a registered Buyer for Auction items listed on XXXX in the USA and payments made through Paypal , Inc. to the XXXX Sellers that listed the items on XXXX. 

How can I accurately pay any State of Ohio Sales Taxes that I owe for Tax Year XXXX, when both XXXX and Paypal are currently denying me any online access or printed reports about XXXX Seller 's Auction information I need to determine my Ohio State Sales Tax liability for purchases made through XXXX on the Internet? 

In Ohio where I reside, I am responsible for paying a 7 % State Sales Tax amount on all taxable items purchased through the Internet with the USA. This Internet Sales Tax is called the Ohio " Use Tax '' levied upon all Ohio residents for Internet purchases. 

XXXX and Paypal Customer Service Departments say they do not provide any Federal, State, Local nor International paid tax information to registered and confirmed users like me about paid-in-full XXXX Auctions. However, XXXX is responsible for including Ohio sales tax for XXXX items sold by Ohioans to Buyers who reside within Ohio or if a company warehouse is located within Ohio. 

XXXX also claims they are not responsible for providing this tax information to consumers because XXXX claims this detailed information is not available after 60 days from the payment date. XXXX CSRs can not explain why XXXX has chosen to automatically erase all detailed XXXX Auction purchase information after 60 days for some undisclosed reason. I am not permitted by XXXX to save the details of the Auction Transactions and CSRs. 

The problem I have is that both XXXX and Paypal deny any responsibility for providing upon request to consumers like me any tax-related information about paid-in-full Auction purchases regarding : 1. ) which geographic location in the USA or foreign country is the XXXX Auction Seller registered, 2. )  where did the paid XXXX Auction item ship from, and/or 3. ) if XXXX collected any tax amount or Ohio Sales Tax on the paid XXXX transaction. 

Paypal processed all of the online transactions and they forwarded the payment amount ( including currency conversion if needed ) to the registered XXXX Seller. Some of the Auction payments sent through Paypal went to XXXX Sellers within Ohio, some Sellers that reside outside Ohio and within the USA, and other XXXX Sellers are located in overseas countries such as XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, etc ... 

The XXXX Seller would then drop-ship the XXXX auction items to delivery address that I specified.

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

Complaint:
I had an account with Fortiva Credit Card company through XXXX. There was a late payment of {$30.00} or something that they kept on sending to my old home address. As a result, I missed it. That caused XXXX point reduction in my credit score. Fortiva did not contact me by any other means to notify me about late payment or the payment either. I tried contacting them multiple times, talked to several supervisors to remove that from my account. But all in vain. I learnt about the XXXX point penalty only after applying for a home mortgage loan last year. In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, this creditor has violated my rights under 15 USC 1681 section 602 that states that I have the right to privacy. It also states that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions under 15 USCS 1666b, a creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. 

So, I request CFPB to help me resolve this issue since creditor has not at all.

Sub-issue: Can't use card to make purchases

Complaint:
Have been a longstanding member of Capital One bank for years, I pay off all the cards that I have with this bank as I use it. I have an average XXXX  of 800+. It's a mileage card so I take advantage of the rewards. I realized there might be a different rewards card that I could be using and I applied for this card and was accepted online after unfreezing all my credit records, the next day I received a phone call from an agent of Capital One during my work hours leaving a message that they needed additional income information, which I am most happy to supply, before I could get home listen to the message and execute this they locked every single one of my accounts and I was declined at a supermarket register for {$10.00}, I have a {$10000.00} limit on the card I was using and several thousand on the other ones as well. I have since changed all the automatic payments I had on this credit card to a new more friendly bank, one that won't decline a {$10.00} charge ; however, they continue to charge automatic payments on my card, I understand that it is from my side and that i have cancelled and restructured the way those are deducted from a different card, maybe too late for this month, however if the cards are locked for me should they not be locked for them too Why Are They Able to Proceed with Charges to My Account Yet I Did Nothing Wrong and Am Declined, Locked Out, And Have to Wait 14 Days for A Resolution?? WHY does Capital One treat their clients like criminals first?

Was contacted XX/XX/2021 by an officer who was supposed to serve papers but called me instead and worked for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX about a payment on my credit report to the company Why Not Lease It. The amount is for {$2500.00}, which I was told included court fees, court costs, attorney fees, or they would settle out of court for {$730.00}. They gave me a few ways to pay. I chose to pay XXXX up front and the remaining 30 days later. 

This debt is on my account, but after paying it and reading online, I feel I was scammed. I was never given a contract or agreement until after I sent the money. And my closing payment I wont get another document until after the last payment. The man I spoke to said I had 1 hour to decide or the deal would be gone and they would pursue court and bring on fraud charges.

My wife and I are trying to refinance our existing mortgage and were told we needed to close our home equity loan which we haven't drawn on or carried a balance on in nearly 4 years. Approximately 4 years ago my wife attempted to close the home equity loan and we paid all fees however unknown to us Citizens Bank charged a continuous annual fee of {$50.00} despite her request to close the  account and us not using the account. Now 4 years later when my wife called again to close the home equity Citizens again advisded her that they would be charging us the accumulated fees again inorder to close the account and advised that we also needed to provide a written letter to close the account which seems like an undue burden and would appear to be the root cause for why were were charged a continues fee desipte not receiving any services or active communication. Moments after my wife advised me of the fees I immediately called to inquire, dispute, and ask for relief or assistance. I was denied at which point I asked for my compliant to be escalated. I was informed that I would receive a return call within 48 hours. During the time where I As I asked questions of the corporate office employee, XXXX XXXX, she became frustrated with me and disconnected our call and I'm now out of options. I advised we are experiencing financial hardship and did not want to pay the fee at this time but due to the delay in the return call ( 76 hrs vs 48 ) and despite there being an active complaint relative to this fee Citizens debited the fees from our account, has refused to advise of any asssitance or releif options, even as little as going back to the status where the fee continued to accrue. They have left us in a desparate situation furthermore they've required us to provide the written letter requesting closure of the account but still collected the lien release feel.
