State: TX
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I acquired an auto loan from Westlakes Financial. Monthly payments beginning XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I got an unsecured personal loan from XXXX XXXX to pay off Westakes. Now a year and a half later, I tried to finance a vehicle and was denied due to a charge-off on my credit report from Westlakes. I immediately contacted Westlakes and was told that the pay off was short by {$30.00} by XXXX XXXX and now interest had accumulated to {$97.00}. I paid this immediately that evening to resolve it. Now, my account status says Account Paid - Was a Charge-off, which is ruining my credit. I have been denied by numerous banks because of the charge-off. I have made countless phone calls to Westlakes. About 3 different employees at Westlakes looked at my account and said the charge-off was not my fault. All of them said it was common sense that it was not my fault. I was told to call back a week or so later for a final decision on whether they would remove the charge-off. When I called, I was told they decided to not remove the charge-off. If CFPB requests phone calls made by me, you will hear the employees and one supervisor say that the charge-off was not my fault. Westlakes has been sued in the past. They have a history of taking advantage of people with poor credit. CFPB forced Westlakes to pay XXXX XXXX dollars in damages. One of the things Westlakes has been sued for is for breaking or changing contracts without informing clients. I have attached a copy of our contract. The contract is good through XX/XX/XXXX. Westlakes broke our contract and put a charge-off on all of my credit reports over {$30.00} owed, which I was never notified about. The amount was paid and the {$97.00} in interest was paid as well. This financial institution has a history of this sort of activity. To further show you the type of questionable activity that happens at Westlakes, I have attached two letters sent to me and my wife from Westlakes. At the beginning of my search, I tried to finance a car through Westlakes. In the rejection letters we received, we were both told that we were denied due to a previous repossession with Westlakes. My credit reports will show that neither me or my wife have ever had a repossession with any financial institution. Finally, I have also attached a copy of the Westlakes contract and the pay off check from XXXX XXXX to show the documentation. Thank you for your time and for your help.

Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2020, I received a collection letter from Credence Resource Management LLC, alleging that I owe a debt that they are trying to recover for {$1200.00} and stating that creditor has authorized their office to accept a payment in the amount of {$450.00} to resolve the debt. The letter indicated XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was original creditor. I wrote a letter to them dated XX/XX/XXXX which I certified mailed them and in which they received on XX/XX/XXXX ( within 30 days after I received their letter ). I indicated to them that I NEVER had XXXX XXXX XXXX  as my provider EVER in my entire life and I asked to send me some verification of debt in any form such as contract or application or statement allegedly relayed to the debt or signed receipt. To this date they have not provided me any validation of in any form and neither they responded to my certified letter that they received on XX/XX/XXXX. I sent another certified letter on XX/XX/XXXX, seeking explanation of this fraudulent account and they didn't respond back but they immediately reported this fraudulent account to all to all 3 credit agencies and substantially impacted my credit. I find their act as intentional and abusive because they had the letter from me asking for verification and they knew that I never owed any money to the creditor because I never had any dealings with creditor but they reported me to credit agencies to damage my credit report.

Complaint:
There were multiple inquires on my credit report that were not authorized by me. I had a Freeze and fraud alert put on my credit report due to identity theft along with a police report and my credit report was still being pulled without my consent. I have contacted all 3 credit bureaus about this matter and not one representative has seem to help me. 

Also I was a victim of the XXXX XXXX computer glitch that resulted in my inquires being deleted and later XXXX XXXX add them back onto my credit report without giving me the legally required written notice of 5 days prior to them re adding them. I contacted them in faith asking them to delete the inquires that they had illegally re-added. 

These unauthorized inquires add a hardship and that my rights were violated by not only TransUnion but as well as XXXX, and Equifax.

Complaint:
HSBC 's promotion is misleading. They offer a {$500.00} bonus if the consumer sets up an account with a direct deposit and deposits " totalling at least {$5000.00} ''. They did not give me the credit and stated that it must be {$5000.00} in each month. However, in the fine print, they do not say " in each month ''. Their wording is below ( I've also attached a photo of the offer ) : " make recurring monthly Qualified Direct Deposits totalling at least {$5000.00} from a third party to your HSBC Premier checking account for 3 consecutive calendar months from the second full calendar month after account opening '' Again, they should have said " in each month ''. Instead, the wording is not clear at all.

Complaint:
Midland is reporting in my credit file however it is inaccurate because it was said to be late, yet all the payments are OK. I do not think that this is mine. I did my research on what to do because it is affecting my scores to badly, I asked for documents, disclosure and where did the account come from but they failed to provide me, so I came online and researched. The plaintiff is asking the same thing that I wanted and at the end of it all the plaintiff won this case. I am talking about the Texas VS Midland Funding Case. I have learned that Midland claims to have a disclosure and an agreement that there is a Consumer Agreement for all who they are collecting from. I guarantee you that there is no such thing that I have agreed upon to.
