Product: Credit card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card

Complaint:
My VISA is issued through Elan Financial for Fidelity Rewards. A few months ago someone opened an XXXX XXXX  account with my credit card. How they got my credit card number, I'll never know. There is a monthly charge of {$86.00} that appears on my statement. I dispute the charge, Elan agrees it is fraudulent and credits my account. They also issue me a new card with a new number.

A month later the same thing happens, with the new number. I go thru the process with Elan again and they say they can block XXXXXXXX XXXX  specifically. The charge is credited, I get a new number, and... 

A month later it happens again. Apparently they can't block the merchant. This has happened four times so far. 

Elan explains to me that VISA, not them, is telling XXXX about the replacement credit card number. I called VISA directly and learned that they have a product called " VISA Updater '' which merchants who make periodic charges, like XXXX, pay for that informs them about the updated credit card numbers. You can imagine how frustrating it must be for XXXX, or XXXX, or whatever-service when monthly charges are declined because the number is no longer valid. This service would be handy for them.

This means that this fraudulent charge will continue as long as I have this credit card account. VISA says I can always dispute it, which I have been. They also suggested I contact XXXX and cancel the account. How will XXXX know what account to cancel? I am not going to read a credit card number to them in hopes of them finding the fraudster and cancel his account. I have never used XXXX let alone open this account. 

VISA and Elan tell me my only choice is to cancel the credit card account altogether and apply for a new one - a brand new account will break the link. That is my next step.

Complaint:
I am writing to express my deep frustration and confusion regarding the handling of my recent dispute by your bureau. Despite my repeated attempts to address a specific account on my credit report, XXXX XXXX XXXX Date opened XX/XX/2019 Balance : {$0.00}, there has been a noticeable lack of compliance with the law compared to other credit bureaus. I want to bring to your attention that both XXXX and XXXX have already acknowledged the presence of an error in their records and promptly removed this account. I find it perplexing that your bureau has verified this account, especially when other major credit bureaus have taken corrective action. This lack of alignment with industry standards and legal requirements is causing me considerable annoyance and inconvenience. I expected a consistent and accurate representation of my credit information across all major bureaus, and the deviation from this expectation is both surprising and frustrating. I withhold my consent for electronic communication and explicitly request that all responses be conveyed in written form through the United States Postal Service ( USPS ). I am the primary complainant in this matter, and I hereby grant full authority to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to thoroughly investigate and address this claim.

Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
I sent a letter regarding inaccurate & unknown things on my credit report. To this day I have not received a response yet. I am being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section 611 ( a ), states that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. Under 15 U.S Code 1602 ( p ) - unauthorized use of my information. Under 15 U.S Code 1692j - Furnishing certain deceptive forms i am not participating in the collection of this alleged debt. Please cease and desist! So because it had been well over that time period I demand that these accounts get removed & deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the laws which were broken. My information was also impacted by the Equifax data breach & may have got into the hands of the wrong person.
