Complaint:
An account that was previously removed for belonging to my son has been put back on my credit report and my credit score took a substantial blow because of this. No information has been given to why this is put on my credit report. I have a son who lived with me, who also has the same name XXXX XXXX, and it looks like our credit reports have again been merged. I want the account from XXXX XXXX XXXX with account number ending in # # XXXX removed immediately. 

This is neglect on the reporting company, and they should be held accountable for this horrible mistake. 

I am requesting an updated credit report for my personal records as I can't trust what else XXXX be put on my report.

Complaint:
I, XXXX XXXX XXXX  am writing to address significant concerns related to potential violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by consumer reporting agencies, namely XXXX, Transunion, and XXXX, as well as the financial institution, XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

Citing 15 USC 1681 section 602a, it is emphasized that consumer reporting agencies bear the responsibility of exercising their duties with fairness, impartiality, and a profound respect for the consumer 's right to privacy. Simultaneously, 15 USC 6801 establishes Congress 's policy, stipulating that financial institutions, including XXXX XXXX XXXX, are obligated to affirmatively and continually respect the privacy of consumers and safeguard the security and confidentiality of nonpublic personal information. 
Referring to 15 USC 1681 section 604a section 2, it is underscored that consumer reporting agencies may only furnish a consumer report in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer. As of this communication, neither XXXX XXXX XXXX nor the consumer reporting agencies, XXXX, Transunion, and XXXX, possess my explicit written consent to furnish my information. 

In light of the above, I am formally revoking any and all authorizations, whether verbal, nonverbal, written, implied, or otherwise, that XXXX have been granted to XXXX, Transunion, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX, as per 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ). Notably, XXXX XXXX XXXX failed to inform me of my right to exercise the nondisclosure option, as mandated by the same statute. 

Moreover, 15 USC 1681 ( c ) ( a ) ( 5 ) prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including adverse information in a consumer report without proper authorization. The reported account constitutes an adverse item reported without my explicit permission, in violation of 15 USC 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) ( a ).

Under 15 USC 1681E, consumer reporting agencies are required to maintain reasonable procedures to avoid violations. It has come to my attention that XXXX may not be adhering to these prescribed standards.

In accordance with 12 CFR 1016.7, I am formally exercising my right to opt out of adverse reporting services. I kindly request your immediate attention and resolution of these matters. Your prompt response to this serious concern is highly anticipated and appreciated.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
I, XXXX XXXX is disputing the balance of {$3000.00} I owe on this account. Also, incorrect reporting to the credit bureaus in regards to amount and reporting " Charge-Off '' status every month. 

XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX are your last correspondence to me which states 'all of your reporting 's to the credit bureaus are correct. '' I disagree. 

Please stop harassing me with collection calls/letters and defaming my credit and FICO score by reporting to the Credit Bureaus Charge Off and incorrect amount every month to my account as of XX/XX/XXXX. Charge Off is only to be reported once. 

I have been trying to resolve this matter with Capital One for approximately a year via phone and via credit bureau disputes. 

Capital One informed me via phone that it was illegal for Capital One to  accept a payment from me until Capital One corrected the errors on my credit report. The Capital One employee stated she would file a credit bureau dispute. Instead I received collection letters and calls with threatening law suits. 


This unresolved matter : 1. Has interfered with me in purchasing a home and an automobile as a creditworthy customer 2. Lowered my creditworthiness and FICO score. 



To assist me in resolving this matter : 1. Im writing to request a copy of my Capital One Statements for the above account XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. 

2. Please inform me of Capital Ones charge off policy. How many months does Capital One wait before a delinquent account is charged off? 

3. Does Capital One have a Hardship Policy? If yes, what are Capital Ones guidelines? 

I previously requested a hardship due to my unforeseen loss of 50 % income, from the death of my mother and my brother. Twice within two months I had to travel to New York with Funeral, Hotel, Food and Transportation expenses. I was denied by Capital One. While all of my other creditors enrolled me into their hardship program. 

I have been a credit card holder with Capital One in excellent standing for at least fifteen years.

Sub-issue: Can't stop withdrawals from your account

Complaint:
I was going through the automated system with regards to my checking account at the 800 number for Bank of America and realized Bank of America charged my checking account a XXXX monthly fee this month of XXXX. I called them about it to find out why this was the case and to my dismay I found out I have been charged a XXXX monthly fee since XX/XX/2019 which brings the total fees since XXXX charged by Bank of America XXXX. I spoke directly to a rep by the name of XXXX looking for an explanation of these fees and she told that my heloc was linked to my account and that I had to maintain a whopping XXXX in my account in order not to be charged a fee. I explained to her Bank of America told me when I opened this checking account many years ago that I would be charged a fee should I go under XXXX. Never was there any mention of any kind of maintaining a XXXX balance in my checking. I would never have signed up for the checking account then. This woman XXXX said no fees would be reversed and that my heloc was sold in XXXX and the fees began then for my checking. Bank of America never once sent me a notice indicating these fees would begin or that I had to maintain anywhere near XXXX dollars in my account. This is so wrong and misleading of Bank of America. Since when can banks just start charging you fees without notifying the consumer first? This is outlandish.
