Company: CarMax, Inc.
State: FL
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Loan
Issue: Getting a loan or lease
Sub-issue: Credit denial

Complaint:
I purchased a vehicle from CarMax in XX/XX/2021. I made every payment on time and paid 50 % towards the principal. I am currently working with a mortgage broker to purchase a home for my family because my lease is up on XX/XX/XXXX. However, CarMax hasn't reported to the credit bureau since XX/XX/2021 so my report shows that I still owe over {$13000.00} which is entirely inaccurate. I have contacted them three times to correct this and they still have not. I have another person on my account and their credit report was updated but mine is still inaccurate. This is preventing me from purchasing a home and if it isn't rectified immediately, my children and I will have nowhere to live.

State: IL
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint:
I called and the information provided was that I was being charged for {$110.00} as a " Charity Write Off '' for a medical procedure from XXXX years ago. I was also told this was due to no insurance and I was fully insured during this period. The total bill was for {$500.00}. What medical bill is for {$500.00} and why would I only owe {$110.00} if I didn't have insurance? 

This is negatively impacting my credit and isn't fair. I pay my bills and the collection agency makes you feel like you need a shower after dealing with them. I shouldn't have to pay this extortion, but for {$110.00} to make it go away is tempting. Please let me know if you can help. 

I did not take the time to pull all of my old insurance info and medical history, but I am sure I can provide documents if necessary to prove that I had insurance and paid my copay at all visits.

The dispute items do not belong to me.

Sub-issue: Problem using a debit or ATM card

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2023 I paid {$200.00} for a rental car through the same person I rented my XXXX with in XXXX XXXX  When I picked up the car I verbally communicated with the merchant about the warning lights being on the dashboard. ( tire pressure, battery, etc.. ) The merchant stated the car was fine to use. It was unsafe and did not run properly. ( This was also not the original car I requested and confirmed to rent ) I could not drive the car as needed and the car eventually broke down on me and my XXXX XXXX XXXX daughter while driving. Leaving me and my daughter stuck in the middle of nowhere for a couple of hours. 
I communicated with the merchant about the car breaking down right away and asked for them to accommodate me with another vehicle or refund. The merchant did not accommodate me. The merchant said it was the car battery and offered me the same unsafe car. 
When I returned home I disputed the {$200.00} charge XX/XX/2023. I sent in screenshots of me messaging the merchant about breaking down as well as screenshots showing the car dashboard ( warning lights on to show the vehicle was not safe ). Chime denied my dispute. 
I have been requesting documents as to why the dispute was denied and I have been reopening the dispute for them to return my {$200.00}. They have denied it repeatedly. I feel as a loyal customer with Chime for a few years and the situation involving the car breaking down I should be refunded. Its just the right thing to do.
