Complaint:
My name is XXXX XXXX and I am resident of California. On XXXX I made an online reservation for a car rental with XXXX and prepaid the full amount of {$480.00} through my Costco Citi Visa card. Upon arriving in XXXX XXXX I proceeded to XXXX rental office and was told that they could not find my reservation even though I had a hard copy with me. They made a new contract and upon returning the car on XXXX they charged my credit card the full rental value of {$510.00} without crediting me for the prepayment that I had already made. I contacted my credit card company on XXXX disputing the prepaid amount of {$480.00} as the rental car company had billed me for the full amount disregarding the prepayment. I have provided my credit card company all documentation supporting my claim and after almost 4 months and numerous calls they still refuse to credit my account for the prepayment.

Complaint:
This company first contacted me months ago claiming I owed money to progressive for car insurance after I switched insurance companies. I disputed it and send them proof that they had been paid and that progressive actually owes me a partial refund. They called and said they did not receive it. I told them to stop calling me and send everything in writing. I also mailed a letter and included in the fax with another set of my documents. They stopped calling. Then suddenly they started calling again. I asked them to stop calling and even referenced the written letter. They claimed they never got anything and continued to call to the point that I blocked their number, but apparently my blocking system still allows them to leave messages which are 30 seconds of silence.

Complaint:
I was a victim of fraud in XX/XX/XXXX. All affected creditors resolved the matter on their end, removed the fraudulent accounts along with their associated balances and reported their findings to the credit bureaus. It is now XXXX and Equifax still has not removed the Inquiry from my credit report although XXXX has. Ive made multiple contacts over the past 4 months to the creditors trying to get all the credit inquires removed and I was informed that they have already submitted this information to the bureaus ( at least 2x now ) but Equifax hasnt actioned it. 
It is frustrating and disappointing that Equifax cant be more timely in processing requests that have a negative effect on my life and goals. I cant help but think that the fraud was a result of their data breach anyway. Credit inquiries should be removed at the same time the accounts and balance are. The fraudsters are evil for doing this to people but the bureaus sloppy clean-up practices allow the consumer impact to continue.

Complaint:
I submitted a dispute letter to all 3 major credit bureaus several months ago. Unfortunately I have not heard back from them in over 3 months and I still have a lot of inaccurate information on my credit file. I would really like to fix my credit report but have been having the hardest time with the credit companies actually investigating my issues. I tried mailing in my request and didn't get an answer back then I sent it certified and still didn't get an answer back. I know that if the credit companies would just look into my issues I would be able to fix my credit.

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

Complaint:
I am writing this in response to responses I am getting from my credit report disputes. I have sent in several dispute letters to the three credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX and Equifax ) with questions on the validity of these accounts listed on my credit report. I also have asked for them to send me documentation proving these accounts are my accounts and asked for a contract of some sort they would have on file with my signature. They keep sending responses saying the accounts are verified and the creditor says the accounts are mine. They have not sent me any documentation. The credit bureaus also send me updated reports saying the item I disputed has been updated on my report. I look at the updated report and it shows that a payment was recently made. I have not made any payment on any of these accounts. 



XX/XX/2020, I also sent in factual dispute letters because these accounts are listed with so much inconsistent information, and I just recently became aware of them. They are showing different high balances across the 3 credit bureaus and different last payment dates. Very inconsistent numbers. THey are supposed to be the same all across the board. If they are getting the same information from the same creditor, why are these numbers different. I asked them to please delete the accounts due to my rights under the FCRA. I also sent in proof to them showning the inconsistencies. I received updated copies back of my credit reports and it says the information was verified, but still shows inconsistency in the numbers/information. These numbers should be the same all across the board. 

The accounts that I have/am disputing and are not factual or reporting correctly are listed below : XXXX/XXXX   XXXX/XXXX  ( XXXX ) XXXX/XXXX  XXXX/XXXX  ( XXXX ) XXXX/XXXX  XXXX/XXXX   XXXX/XXXX  XXXX/XXXX  ( XXXX ) XXXX/XXXX

Complaint:
Re-aging accounts on my credit reports which are obsolete. I have contacted XXXX and Equifax in regards to disputing outdated information on my credit report. Well, XXXX and Equifax is still reporting obsolete creditors and refuses to delete the re-aged accounts which is against the law. XXXX  and Equifax finally deleted some of the obsolete accounts but they left 16 accounts by this one creditor XXXX XXXX. This creditor has to be a collection agency stemming from the original creditors because all the outdated information that was deleted this creditor XXXX XXXX is now showing all the amounts from the deleted creditors. I had never heard of this org. I have requested numerous times for XXXX and Equifax to request for this creditor to provide the original creditors information such as opening dates, payment history etc, this is of great importance as it will demonstrate that this creditor is re-aging the accounts to keep on my credit which is against the law. I am again asking for XXXX   and Equifax to delete the 16 accounts from XXXX XXXX. A collection account is considered a continuation of the original debt. '' It is a violation of law for a collection agency to report old past-due amounts as if they are new again when the debts are sold. If an agency persists in reporting old debts with " updated '' activity dates, I will have to file a legal case against them. Its not fair for me to have to continuously go through this when this creditor is reporting false information. Its not fair for me to have to seek legal representation but I will have to because me filing disputes are not getting this issue resolved.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
On or around XX/XX/2022, I attempted to place an order with Home Depot and take advantage of financing offer up to 24 month of financing on purchases over {$290.00}.

First said website would not take order my Home Depot credit card kept declining purchase although the account was in good standing with available balance.

Home Depot resolution department got involved with placing order promised at exact delivery date and further adjustment if product was not delivered in time.

Not only was the product not delivered in time but sent out wrong merchandise and billing is incorrect. Home then separated each item ( 51 ) in total into several orders making billing verification and payments impossible to apply correctly and timely to avoid financing charges.

I attempted to reach Executive Office several times about this issue and was told they refuse to get involved. I find the billing and financing option a deceptive business practice and asked you investigate this as an official complaint.

I have been trying to get XXXX XXXX to correct a payment error for years by contacting the credit bureaus to dispute the incorrect information. Finally I got an attorney to call open sky and I got a letter from them, but it still isn't corrected. They need to fix my credit report immediately. I have never had any late payments on any of my accounts and for years I have suffered this error by paying higher rates and being denied credit that I should have qualified for. Please see that they fix this mistake quickly. Thank you.

Complaint:
I have a general purpose XXXX through Comenity bank. They have always had a strange cut off time, XXXX ET, which is XXXX hours earlier than other cards. But it was clearly stated, so I never questioned it. When I went to make my XXXX payment at XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX due dateI was confused that my payment was late and could not be processed until the next day. I paid my statement balance in full anyway. I, then, called multiple times to figure out the discrepancy. I was told that at the end of XXXX notices were sent out that the cut off time was rolled back to XXXX ET. They have my correct address, but I cant recall receiving my anything in the mail from them in recent memory. There is one notice if you log onto their payment page. I went through my email. I have dozens of email adverts and account notices from multiple accounts under Comenitybut not one specifically notifying the change in cut off. I was told that it was my fault for not being aware of their new cut off time and all late fees and interest would be assessed.
