Company: OneMain Finance Corporation
State: CO
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:
In XXXX of XXXX  a delinquent/late payment was reported to the credit bureaus. I had made a payment plan with OneMain Financial prior to that and had followed it accordingly. When they reported my payment late, I called and spoke to the general XXXX XXXX XXXX ( he was also the one who helped me set up the payment plan ). He admitted it was a mistake on their end and it should have never been reported. I asked him to resolve it and he was very flighty, it took me 4 times of asking him until he said he would need to submit something to the credit department but it would take a long time. I said that was fine. Since he kept complaining about it I asked for the credit departments contact information and he said they dont give it out to customers and only he can do it. After 2 months I reached out to XXXX because it was still on my credit report and he said oh I assumed they fixed it because I didnt hear anything and said nothing else can be done. So I filed a claim with each bureau explaining this and all were denied except XXXX. I resubmitted and they were still denied. OneMain said they couldnt do anything about it even though I reminded them they admitted it was their mistake. I asked for a Corporate phone number and they said they didnt have one. I then began working with a credit repair agency and they said this sounded shady, and have been working on removing this from my credit report at the other XXXX bureaus but they have been unsuccessful. So it is still on my credit report even though OneMain admitted it was their mistake. 
Aside from this major issue, XXXX has been EXTREMELY rude and insulting in every interaction I have ever had with him. They have also called over XXXX times in XXXX day for days on end. I have just paid off this entire loan so my account is closed with them but I am still not okay with their shady business practices.

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

Complaint:
XXXX 's payment portal was not working in XXXX and their customer support number ( XXXX ) listed on the back of the card is also not functioning. I called this number when the payment portal was down to check how I could make the payment but this number was not working at all. And then the card was reported delinquent ( 30days late ) by XXXX which is the underwriting company. How can i make the payment when XXXX 's payment portal and customer support number were not working at all. 

Then deserve opened a new payment portal and the card was paid off since then. The card has {$0.00} balance as of now. 
XXXX, the customer support manager who i spoke to in XXXX asked me to open a dispute with credit bureaus and told me the dispute department will fix delinquency reported issue. I have tried to dispute this with all three credit bureaus but XXXX is not fixing it. They keep sending the same result ( XXXX being late payment ) to all my disputes. 

I have called them several times and sent them several emails since then with no results. 

This has severely affected my credit score and has given me trauma as i was preparing to buy my first house. Please help me get this fixed.

I was told I was approved for a home loan equity of {$37000.00}. This was back on XX/XX/2023. The loan XXXX I was working with was XXXX XXXX. But I had some repairs to be repaired at the time. So I worked hard in getting them completed. Now I get told i was never approved. I'm always denied. They just wanted me to complete the repairs by telling me that I was approved. I was never sent a denial letter. I have equity in my home and I can't even access to pay off some debt. There is another loan XXXX trying to get me approved but it seems hopeless for me now.

Company: Genesis FS Card Services, Inc.
State: CA
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:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2023 I submitted an investigation results to all 3 credit bureaus regarding late payments reporting on my both my XXXX XXXX account and XXXX XXXX. These late payments are reporting in error and creating financial hardship. I never heard from the credit bureaus. I resubmitted my complaint again on XX/XX/XXXX by mail after calling them only to find out nothing had been done. I called them again on XX/XX/2023. The credit bureaus have no interest in assisting consumers and refuse to investigate. If you get someone on the phone within a half hour you are lucky and those that take the calls simply tell you to resubmit as there is no change. I attempted to get a supervisor or manager on the phone and was left on hold and then disconnected. The above happened with all 3 of the credit bureaus. The bottom line is that I was not late paying my accounts and want both XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX corrected immediately. Thank you

Complaint:
It is common knowledge that CRAs do not investigate errors in the interest of the consumer, but rather err on the side of paid subscribers. It is a business and nothing more. a form letter with a typed name and no signature is NOT verification! 


I received my credit report and noticed violations under the 15 us code 1681 and 15 us code 1681b ( FCRA ). The law clearly states the following15 us code 1681b ( a ) In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. Meaning that if you do not have or haven't gotten any written instructions from me ( the consumer ) to furnish an account on my report. It should not be there. That is a violation. I never gave written instructions to furnish any of the following accounts. Secondly according to the 15 us code 1681. The law clearly states 1. Accuracy and fairness of credit reporting. Congress makes the following findings : 2. The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system ( 4 ) There is a need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. ( b ) Reasonable procedures It is the purpose of this subchapter to require that consumer reporting agencies adopt reasonable procedures for meeting the needs of commerce for consumer credit, personnel, insurance, and other information in a manner that is fair and equitable to the consumer, with regard to the confidentiality, accuracy, relevancy, and proper utilization of such information in accordance with the requirements of this subchapter. I sent out a letter To Verify The Accuracy Of Credit Report and I did not get a response. So I send out another letter just in case they didn't receive it still no response. Under the FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681i, all unverified accounts MUST be promptly deleted. The company known as " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' is known to have a multitude of FCRA violations but can list with the 3 major CRAs without regard for consumer rights. This is a clear violation of my privacy. Which is a violation of the law. This is embarrassing and damaging to my reputation as a consumer.
