Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.
State: MS
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent Midland Credit a letter asking for information on this debt along with a signature showing this debt to be mine. I explained that this debt I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX and filled an insurance claim for the loss of my job. I asked them why they have it when XXXX XXXX was supposed to have been getting the minimum payment dues. 

They could not explain that and then told me to contact XXXX  XXXX which I have tried to do to ask why my insurance has not been paying the minimum bill and keep getting sent back to midland. 

So while talking to a manager at midland she pretty much asked me why I was a piece of XXXX and didn't pay the bill and why I didn't feel bad not paying my debts then told me it didn't matter why I lost a job I should work anywhere to pay it. I tried explaining I had a loss of income and couldn't pay it she then told me that they would be reporting this showing negative and it would ruin my credit to get rental housing or credit with any company until I did. 

I have requested documents showing the insurance was not paying the balances, I have requested in writing from XXXX XXXX a reason for my insurance not making minimum payments and keep being told to deal with midland credit that they can answer it. 

Midland says I owe XXXX but 1 phone conversation with XXXX XXXX told me that midland purchased this debt for {$100.00} and should not be asking for {$910.00}. I then requested all documents of purchase and who sold the debt including who at XXXX XXXX they contact with this debt and only receive the bills which I believe are wrong.

Issue: Shopping for a loan or lease

Complaint:
I currently have XXXX car notes with Huntington bank. On XXXX XXXX my payment was due and mailed in in a timely manner as to not be late. The check was stamped and addressed but did not clear my account until late XXXX which put me past 30 days late. I feel this is unfair as I gave ample time for my check to arrive. I have a good credit rating beside this and the negative rating is greatly affecting me and my wife 's ability to do a refinance. our payment was clearly sent way in advance of the due date and should not be reflected as 30 days past due. 

Thanks, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
Citibank/XXXX  XXXX XXXX Department Stores National Bank ) issued my Statement of Account on XX/XX/XXXX - on page 3 you will see that my account is enrolled in automatic payment and that my next payment would be drafted on XX/XX/XXXX. According to Citibank- they had a system update on XX/XX/XXXX which deleted my automatic payment. They then reported me as late to the credit bureau. They have admitted their error and sent me a letter that the late payment will be removed from my credit reports, however, XXXX has not removed the XX/XX/XXXX late mark from my credit report even though the data furnisher has requested it. I have disputed the information with XXXX and they did not make the adjustment. I am including a copy of the letter from Macy 's that indicates they have requested the '30 day late ' be removed from my credit report, as well as a copy of the XXXX statement that indicates I am still enrolled in automatic payments. 

Citi did not provide an accurate account statement - XX/XX/XXXX statement indicated that my payment would be automatically debited, but Citi cancelled the payment due to their system update ( the statement was inaccurate - a violation of Reg Z ), and then reported the payment as late inaccurately to the credit bureaus ( a violation of FCRA ). XXXX did not remove the late payment as requested by Citi.

Sub-issue: Problem with rewards from credit card

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX, in partnership with XXXX 's XXXX, issued a credit card promising cash back for purchases. Until this year, cash back checks were attached to statements and easily overlooked, particularly by cardholders who pay bills online and do not rely on paper statements. I recently came across such a cash back check while working on taxes, but noted that it was well past the printed expiration date. I contacted the credit card company to request a replacement check and was told this was prohibited by " bank policy. '' This {$180.00} check had been overlooked because of a bank practice of attaching them to statements instead of sending them in separate check envelopes. Now the bank is taking advantage of its own dubious practice by converting my funds to its own use.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: MA
Product: Credit card
Issue: Billing disputes

Complaint:
XXXX/XXXX/16 I authorized a {$280.00} payment to Citibank/Best Buy. They attempted to take {$3800.00}. I called them on XXXX/XXXX/16 after receiving an email notice of this attempt. Citibank assured me it would not occur but if it did it would take 60 days to resolve. So, I put a stop pay on my XXXX Bank account for safety. Citibank also said that they would only take the {$280.00} payment authorized. Citibank attempted to take the {$3800.00} and marked the account as Paid in Full. I kept logging into the account online to make sure the payment of {$280.00} but the account showed {$0.00} balance. All attempts by me to make the payment were declined as their system showed a {$0.00} balance. On XXXX/XXXX/16, I received an XXXX Credit Report Warning that Citibank had reported my account as past due. NOTE : this is my ONLY late payment ever in my XXXX years of life. I immediately called Citibank, explained the problem again, made the payment. Found out that Citibank could n't make the original {$280.00} payment because it deactivated all access to my XXXX Bank account for payments which was their mistake. I ended up paying {$300.00} from another bank account and was assured that the mistake would be corrected and reporting corrected to credit bureaus. In speaking with XXXX a Citibank Team leader on XXXX/XXXX/16, I was told the correction to my credit report was put through. I called again today, and spoke with XXXX, who told me this was not the case and that it was being reviewed still. I have documentation of all of this from the {$280.00} payment amount to emails from Citibank to bank stop pays to erroneous reports. I filed a written complaint with Citibank/Best Buy as well as all credit bureaus. Citibank has simply made errors, lied about correcting them, and essentially done nothing.
