Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX CREDIT BUREAU ; Every month I question the validity of this account. There is no way that this account was indeed verified- it's unverifiable and incomplete. Again, Im not sure who to take this to anymore, but I have disputed this account several times with both the original creditor and the credit reporting agencies accordingly and Ive attached everything to support my dispute. However, I continue to received a pre-template letter sent to me that its been verified and it REMAINS. How is it possible that this was verified if you continue to report incomplete, inconsistent, inaccurate, and unverifiable information on this account and lack a thorough and in-depth investigation. Ive disputed and I have not received anything as such, but it continues to be reported in violation of the consumer laws. Continues to report wrong balance, incorrect date of first delinquency, wrong date of last active, inconsistent payment status, high balance and actual balance is questionable, etc. I believe that section 609 of FCRA also allows me to ask for detail information about the account and how you indeed investigated and your detail process. I'm extremely upset and shocked about the way this charge-off account is reporting on my credit report which continues to report with incomplete, inconsistent and unverifiable information. How can you honestly say that you verified as it being accurate? This was NOT verified! I am requesting this investigation under the authorization of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 623. ( a ) ( 8 ) ability of consumer to dispute information directly with the furnisher. What I am disputing : The account you have reported to the three credit bureaus. My basis for this dispute is that I have no knowledge of this account.

Company: PENNYMAC LOAN SERVICES, LLC.
State: ID
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: VA mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
XXXX XX/XX/2021, I attempted to pay off my home 's $ XXXX principle. I logged into PennyMac.com website to accomplish this. PennyMac 's system accepted a XXXX daily payment of {$99000.00}. I paid this amount on XXXX XXXX then attempted to make my XXXX payment but their system wouldn't allow me to pay the remainder. I attempted several amounts until it accepted another $ XXXX amount ( XXXX XXXX ). The $ XXXX difference it would never let me pay so I phoned & after XXXX min of wait time I was able to speak with an agent. I was told I had to request a payoff amount to conclude the loan and it would cost? {$20.00}. I reluctantly accepted this ( twice as I recall ) but never received the payoff amount ( didn't verify but probably was charged the fee ). Disappointed & not desiring to spend the time or money to speak with another representative to try a third time, I decided to incur the incremental finance charges & let my monthly recurring deduction cover the XXXX XXXXXXXX balance ( PennyMac has been deducting XXXX XXXX monthly since the loan 's inception ). In XXXXXXXX, I owed ~ {$800.00} so expected their auto withdrawal would pay off my balance but PennyMac unexpectedly ceased withdrawing from my account. In XXXX, I received a notice that I was XXXX months behind in making house payments. I phoned again - spending my XXXX minutes with their representative. I attempted to pay to remove myself from the " Delinquent '' status but she was unable to accept due to only owing {$860.00}. She informed me she was going to request a payoff amount & it'd post in my account in XXXX hours. I shared the failure of this process in times past. She suggested I provide my fax number as this is apparently a more dependable process. I'm like most of the XXXX population that does not have a fax machine for personal use & find this a clear indicator of a business trying not to facilitate communication. So, I checked my online account for this payoff note but it was not there. Today, I had a person pull into my drive to take photos of the house at the request of PennyMac. I believe PennyMac is purposely making it difficult/impossible for their consumers ( me specifically ) to payoff their loans. I believe their motive is clear ( incremental interest billing, fees & fines, deed to a XXXX XXXXXXXX home where all but {$860.00} has been paid off ).

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: FL
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments
Sub-issue: You never received your bill or did not know a payment was due

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2021 I paid ten thousand into a service using the American Express Business Card with that XXXX account numbers ending in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is the name of the company. My limit on the card is {$10000.00}. So that limit was used. 

On XX/XX/2021 American Express charged an over the limit charge to the same company for {$5000.00} without my knowledge. No phone calls, no emails, no text. Though they have all of these contact information. 

It was not until the following bill cycle that I realized the extra charge on the card and also the threatening collection call from an American Express employee about placing the extra {$5000.00} they call, " Past Due '' on my credit report. 

I did not authorize this charge but I agreed to pay it off. I requested a work out plan with American Express, and they declined on several attempts to pay the over the limit amount off. I requested to be a part of a payment plan until it is resolved. I was clearly told " no '' by an employee. His employee ID is # XXXX and according to him his name is XXXX. He would not provide me his last name. 

When requested, XXXX would not pass me to a supervisor, or a manager to help resolve my concerns. Instead he offered that I dispute the charges. I countered that I did not authorize it and so there should be no charges. Can you give me the information to your legal counsel, I asked. He said " no ''. 

I told XXXX, why did not anyone call me to authorize the over the limit charge and why are you threatening my small business with bad credit reporting on a charge they made without my authority. I agreed to pay and just want them to work with me. I have never missed a payment with them and pay on time and over the amount due.

Complaint:
I recently sent a dispute on XX/XX/XXXX for a charge off / collection account from XXXX showing on my credit report & an additional XXXX account with 1 30 day late payment reporting.

As a result of this dispute, 2 positive lines that were not disputed has been removed. Was my investigation properly done? 
I am showing all accounts from XXXX have the same account number, but different histories. 

The accounts that were deleted and not disputed by me were a {$1000.00} unsecured loan opened XX/XX/XXXX, & another {$1200.00} unsecured loan opened XX/XX/XXXX. 
The actual accounts disputed were a {$1200.00} unsecured loan opened XX/XX/XXXX & {$500.00} account ( they arent even reporting what type of account, ) opened XX/XX/XXXX. 
All of these accounts share the account number XXXX. It is clear the the investigation done by the CRAs and XXXX was not done properly. 

How can something like this happen? I directly disputed negative information I believe is inaccurate, and my positive lines were deleted as a result. These positive lines were accounts that were not even included in my dispute letter. This investigation was clearly not done properly. 

In addition, I am showing said negative accounts are showing as " Account Not Disputed '' based on your most recent reporting as a credit bureau despite my previous attempt on XX/XX/XXXX to verify. 

This is this a MAJOR violation in reporting according to the FCRA and consumer rights of accurate reporting to my credit report. 
As a result of the negligence of your investigation not being done properly & the proper attempt I have made to ensure my information is being accurately reported, please delete these inaccurate negative accounts immediately as you have violated my rights & the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
