Company: LEXISNEXIS
State: IN
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Auto
Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not mine

Complaint:
I was notified by my auto insurance, XXXX, that my premiums were increasing {$120.00} annually partially due to a credit investigation by a contracted credit investigation company named Lexis Nexis. In XX/XX/2016 I was rear ended by a driver insured by XXXX insurance. All reports and actions were filed with both companies. The other driver was at fault. By XXXX I was asked to settle the claim by XXXX. They assured me that all claims to doctors and repair shops had been paid. I accepted. In XXXX I received a bill from XXXX for emergency services. I contacted XXXX and was told that the bill was never settled and to send it to them for payment. They would be suborned by XXXX. They were. In XXXX I was notified by XXXX that my premiums were going up in part because I made a collision claim. No one at the time I sent this bill to XXXX informed me that this would be a collision claim. I feel that XXXX failed to make me aware of this and also that Lexis Nexis never gave me a chance to look into this before they made a recommendation to raise my rates. This is deceptive practices to put an insurance customer in this situation without proper clarity.

Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
As an XXXX employee I was directly affected by COVID and struggled to make my mortgage payments so I asked XXXX XXXX about the best option available which would not affect my credit rating. I went into a trial modification period paying a the reduced amount they told me from XXXX 2020. I paid it on-time and in-full. I was told nothing would be reported to credit bureaus during this time. At the end they modified my loan with a government product loan. THEN.months later they reported me 4 months late!! 

I thought the CARES Act protected me? Were laws not implemented that mortgage companies werent allowed to report you negatively if going through one of the programs they offered due to you being affected by COVID? 

Ive disputed it with the 3 credit reporting agencies and XXXX, who basically said I should have paid more attention because it was in the fine print and too bad I signed on the dotted line. But I feel hoodwinked. Im not a lawyer. I trusted I was doing the right honest and ethical thing and they were too. 

Now, because of them, I was denied a ParentPlus federal loan for my XXXX college. My credit score is so low I couldnt even get a new cel phone plan. No one will approve me for anything and Im never late with credit card payments or anything! This is the 7th home Ive owned and all been sold/closed in excellent standing. 

XXXX XXXX is a predator. They took advantage of my good faith.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: PA
Product: Credit card
Issue: Late fee

Complaint:
I went into the XXXX in XXXX, PA and paid my Boscov 's credit card in full. 
I then received a bill in the mail with a {$25.00} late fee and charges of {$2.00} and XXXX on top of my balance that I already paid. 
When I called the number on the back of my card, they said that I did n't pay and I would need to fax a cancelled check. I went to my bank and they called the cardd company and after an hour on the phone with them, they did n't help me. They wanted my bank to fax a copy of my statement for proof of payment with all my persona information on it. I also told them a had a receipt of payment when I paid them by check, which my bank faxed them. They told me they were suspending my account. I paid my bill on time at the store. 
Is this how they make money by taking advantage of seniors - asking us to pay twice and then threaten me with late charges and shutting down my account. 
I have never been late and on a fixed income - I cant afford to pay twice and let them figure it out if they EVER figure it out.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
For the last ten years I have been trying to get US Bank to approve a loan modification for me to sell my house in a short sale. I have had an offer on the home and they have made this the most difficult process/time of my life. I got a divorce in 2011 and my ex husband was difficult and did not want to sign the documentation needed for me to do so. I was told by mu realtor to have him sign a quit claim deed which he did so that I can go forward with the shortsale process. I have applied multiple times and every time my realtor sends over everything so we can close this and finalize the short sale they say they are missing something or they didnt receive everything and they close it. I have done this countless times. I need to get this taken care of as it has caused a major rift in my life and I am just trying to get the short sale done so I can go about my life. I was in a difficult time in my life and feel behind therefore leading me to become delinquent. I was told by my realtor to file a formal complaint against US Bank. Please advise.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: RI
Product: Credit card
Issue: Billing disputes

Complaint:
My XXXX 2015 statement contained a charge dated XXXX/XXXX/15 from " XXXX * XXXX XXXX '' for {$290.00}. I have never purchased anything from this person or website. I disputed the charge as unauthorized. Capital One replied that the merchant substantiated the transaction and they would rebill me. What was provided to substantiate the charge was a printout of the merchant 's website ( which I did not recognize ) and a copy of the charge billed to the wrong expiration date, wrong cvv code, and wrong address. The only accurate piece of information was my card number, which has n't changed since I received the yard many years ago. 

I did research and noticed that this charge was also made by the merchant exactly one year ago. I did n't recognize it then either and the records show I disputed it and it was removed from my bill. 

I responded to Capital One 's rebill by letter indicating that the unauthorized charge was still disputed, that I never made this purchase, never used any product or service from this merchant, and to advise the merchant to stop billing me. I attached documentation of the previous dispute from a year ago. 

Capital One today sent me a letter saying " your request lacks all of the previously requested information to validate your dispute ''. Please see the attached letter Capital One is referring to. I provided all of the information possible. It is not my responsibility to contact the merchant to beg for a credit for something I never purchased. Capital One claims a {$0.00} fraud liability policy and they have failed to abide by it.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA
Product: Credit card
Issue: Credit card protection / Debt protection

Complaint:
In response to Capital Ones ' solicitation letter for home refinancing, I called them up and asked loan programs they have. I expressed my interest in one of the programs and asked them to send the application. They asked my credit card number to proceed. I hesitated to give, but agent said " no charge '', " no charge '' " no charge ' number of times. Since I did n't sign the application yet, I assumed it will be O.K. with such a big company, so I gave them my card number. Next day I receive application forms. But before I sign I received a better offer from another company, so I cancelled the application to Capital Ones the next day. 
However, when I received my credit card statement later on, I found they charged {$450.00} commitment fee which I can not accept. At no point the agent made me understand that just giving the credit card number is an acceptance of the offer and I am subject to any commitment fee. Who would accept that kind of offer in the world unless the person is a stupid or crazy. I think this is a typical example of credit card abuse or cheating to an innocent customer. I think U.S. is lawful country and I sincerely hope you would help me to resolve this kind of nonsense.
