Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: VA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone

Complaint:
I sent an identity theft affidavit to Capital One regarding a fraudulent account that was opened in my name, Capital One mailed me a generic letter with a phone number that no one can be reached at stating they conducted an investigation and determined that the fraud was unfounded. I tried calling the main number and calls regarding the account in question are routed to a law firm that also does not answer the phone or return my calls. I was a victim for identity theft and fraud and I was not aware of my rights and afraid to take action because I felt that the people knew where me and my family lived at the time. I am now educated about the appropriate actions to take and Capital One disregarded my fraud affidavit. Capital One is the only creditor that did not take my issue seriously. I provided police report numbers as well. I have attached the appropriate documents and the letter from capital one.

Product: Credit card
Issue: Advertising and marketing

Complaint:
I received an email from Discover stating " We 're writing to let you know that your XXXX Pay purchase on XXXX XXXX, 2015 for {$1200.00} at XXXX XXXX included a gift card. The gift card portion of your purchase does not qualify for the XXXX % Cashback Bonus ( R ) promotion... if you disagree with our finding and contend that your purchase did not include a gift card or a portion of your purchase qualifies per the terms of the promotion, let us know with supporting documentation in the next 21 days. Documentation can include store receipts or invoices, but can not include your Discover card statement. '' My purchase did not contain a gift card, and no one where did Discover 's Terms and Conditions disclose Discover would ask for documentation of what was purchased. This puts an unnecessary and unreasonable burden on me as a consumer to provide proof against an accusation Discover is making while having zero grounds for making said accusation. What would happen if I did not keep my receipts from more than 3 weeks ago? Should I be keeping my receipts for all of my purchases made with my Discover card? It would be nice to know beforehand and not after the fact. To summarize, Discover is not abiding by their Terms and Conditions by making unfounded accusation and placing the unjustified burden on the consumer. I 'm extremely disappointed with Discover 's lack of integrity and transparency. I have a strong relationship with, and have never encountered such issues with XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, or XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA
Product: Credit card
Issue: Advertising and marketing

Complaint:
Citibank advertised that if I use my credit card for purchasing home furniture, I get back 5% on my purchases.  I had several other credit offers in the mail, offering various % back on purchases, and I decided to go with my existing Citibank credit card because it offered the highest % back.  When it came to paying the 5%, they said that the merchant classified itself with Visa/Mastercard as a "specialty" merchant, and they will not pay my 5%.  I contacted the merchant, the merchant stated that their business was set up years ago, business classifications were different back then, and they are more than happy to verify  for Citibank that they are EXCLUSIVELY a children's home furnishing store.  They also have a website that confirms this:  XXXX  My purchase definitely qualifies for the cash credit.  I contacted Citibank again, and customer service has no interest in verifying any of the facts.  They just simply denied my cash back.  I could have used another card that maybe gave back less, but no tricks involved.  There was nothing on the website saying that if your merchant set up its business decades ago and is not classified this and that, you won't get any cash back. Citibank uses common sense, plain XXXX in their advertisement to pull you in their misleading deal ("5% cash back on home furnishings") but then have tricks to get out of their obligations when it comes to paying.   I could have had money back from other credit card companies and not use Citibank in the first place.  They owe me money as far as I am concerned.  I have been a Citi customer for YEARS and paid my bills on time.  I expect to be treated with respect.

Sub-product: Loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Loan sold or transferred to another company

Complaint:
My loan was being serviced by Suntrust, who was bought out by Truist Financial. Since the merger, I have not been able to get in touch with anyone at Truist Financial to service my loan. I have decided to refinance my vehicle with a local credit union and they have tasked me with obtaining the loan buyout documents from Truist, but I can not get a hold of anyone at the bank. I've tried waiting for hours and hours on hold, but no one has ever answered their number. There has never been a time I have called when the hold queue has stated anything else than " more than 60 minutes '', and I have tried looking up employees of the company and emailing them, but have not been able to get any responses. I can not service my account at all with this institution and no longer want them to service my account. Due to this, I am being forced to bank with Truist against my will, and would please like any help I can get. Thank you.

Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
I mailed a check of {$90000.00} to part pay the principal balance of my mortgage with Green Tree Servicing. Account number XXXX. The check was mailed USPS Priority Mail, and I had confirmation of delivery and signor on XXXX XXXX. On XXXX XXXX, I noted that the money had been applied, but split : $ {$2000.00} effective XXXX/XXXX/2015 applied as my advance XXXX payment, and {$87000.00} effective XXXX/XXXX/2015 applied to my principal balance. I called to notify them that all of the money should have been applied to the principal and the effective date should be XXXX/XXXX/2015. I have numerous calls since then - mostly unhelpful and even after escalation and a supposed " rush '' to fix, I still have the {$87000.00} although now applied to the principal, but STILL the wrong effective date of XXXX/XXXX/2015. I am told this morning that it might take another XXXX business days to fix. 

My complaint : why should they split the amount when I had previously called before sending the check stating that the whole amount to be applied to the principal, and why is the effective date still wrong? I can only assume that it is Green Tree 's process to do this as it clearly benefits the company at the expense of the client.

Consumer complaint received 2016-06-21
Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: MI
Product: Credit card
Issue: Credit line increase/decrease

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX, 2016, I requested a credit line increase and I was approved for a {$1000.00} increase bringing my card limit to {$1500.00}. Nonetheless, I do not feel like this is a fair credit line increase since all of my other credits have limits in excess of {$1500.00} in addition to my good account standing with Discover. Moreover, I have a 100 % on-time payment history with Discover ( as I do with all my credit cards ), and have not had a credit line increase since I have had the account for over 2 years despite my current credit score of XXXX. I reached out on XXXX XXXX, 2016 to see if the credit card limit could be reevaluated and I was told that I would need to call their Card Portfolio service. I called them and they indicated that since the request was yesterday, they could not do anything. Nonetheless, the representative indicated that I could apply anytime for a credit line increase. After getting off the phone, I requested another increase via the online system. I was told that it would take 2 days to review my request. I initiated an online chat with Discover and had asked if there was any credit line increase time limits, such as a certain amount of days after receiving a request. The online agent indicated that Discover does not have any such limits. That agent recommended I call back the Credit Portfolio department. I called them back and the representative indicated that the application for a credit card increase was denied because of the short credit line history ( the same credit line increase that I wanted to be reevaluated ). She also said that a credit line increase request would be granted within 30 days of a prior increase, which was contradictory to what the online agent had indicated. I asked to speak with a supervisor. I was transferred to XXXX who was very condescending and indicated that the regulations of the industry ensured fair treatment. Consequently, he argued that an exception to the day of the request for a reevaluation could not be granted because it would not be fair for other customers. I then indicated that it did not seem fair that I had about only a half-hour before the customer service department closed when other people that applied that day would had more time to ask for a reevaluation. He then indicated that I could define fairly however I wanted, even though minutes prior his definition fair was the reason why I could not be granted a credit line increase. As mention before, I have several credit cards with other companies and I have never heard that a credit card regulation prevented a credit card increase reevaluation regardless of the time of the request. I believe XXXX was incorrectly state federal regulations and possibly even fabricating them to explain away an issue. At the end of our conversation, I asked for an employee ID number and XXXX refused to give it to me.

Company: Ad Astra Recovery Services Inc
State: CA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Payday loan
Issue: Disclosure verification of debt
Sub-issue: Right to dispute notice not received

Complaint:
I requested that the company provide the original contract that has my original signature, proof that this debt originated from my social security number and address with proper identification as well as accounting to show how they arrived at the amount that is shown on the notice and their agreement that they have the legal right to collect on the said debt. I requested this validation and to date I have not received this information. Instead or the information requested, I received the attached letter that states that Ad Astra is not going to provide this information because it was already provided when in fact it was never provided. This unverified, erroneous item is damaging my credit and the company has not provided the information requested for the questionable debt and this debt needs to be deleted. In addition, XXXX continues to notify the credit reporting agencies, deeming this item accurate with no proof. I looked up the policy for information with the said company XXXX and it clearly states that the information in which a customer can opt out of. I opted out of XXXX information sharing in XX/XX/XXXX due to multiple offers that I had been receiving and was not interested in a loan at that time. This is why I can not understand how Ad Astra is verifying ( or ) validating which ever term you set to use that this debt belongs to me. Remove the said item as you have NEVER investigated the item as I originally requested.
