Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: GA
Product: Credit card or prepaid 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:
It was brought to my attention after recently applying for an American Express Card that an account was already opened without my permission in my name. I recently fell victim to identity theft over the course of the last year. My mail was being rerouted and due to a data breach from XXXX my phone was overtaken by something called a sim swap causing my number to be stolen for a period of time. XXXX and XXXX have been amazing at working swiftly with clearing the debt from my credit report however XXXX has not removed the fraudulent information and American Express have not closed the account. Attached you will find all documentation revolving the fraudulent information and Im praying both companies get it resolved immediately as they are both now violating my rights as a consumer and breaking federal law by 1 ) holding me accountable for fraudulent debt and 2 ) reporting inaccurate information to my credit. I spoke with XXXX in the fraud department at American Express and was promised that the inaccurate information will be removed promptly so I am now putting this in black and white to hold both companies accountable for their conspicuous actions. I expect this to be resolved within 30 days to avoid further action. A report has been filed with both the federal trade commission and XXXX police department.

State: AL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
Over the last several months, I have applied for certain financial products in order to obtain new credit cards, personal loans, or vehicle refinancing. I have used either XXXX promoted products or products through XXXX XXXX. multiple companies other than those indicated on the XXXX XXXX product page, have contacted me with adverse action letters, although I never requested a loan or services through their agency, as well as them not being identified as on of the affiliated lenders. 

XXXX XXXX also provided false advertisement for the solicitation of credit cards, and then denied my application despite identifying I had excellent odds of approval. This caused unnecessary inquiry and reduced my credit score, causing me to suffer actual financial damage by increasing my interest rates for approved loan products through other sources. 

This matter IS NOT a part of the lawsuit by the Federal Trade Commission, as complaints for that settlement are for a specific timeframe leading up to XX/XX/2022. These loan products were recommended and denied via XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/2022, making it a separate issue not part of the original complaint, so I am not eligible for relief under the FTC 's complaint. XXXX XXXX continues to send preapproved credit offers, and just recently sent on on XX/XX/2022, which shows their continued violation of the false advertising.

Company: UNITED COMMUNITY BANK
State: GA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
In XXXX, I Invoked my rights under the cares act multiple times with United Community Bank representatives, extending the forbearance program. In XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, when i was guided by a representative to make a payment while I awaited my next verbally agree extension, I was defrauded and Illegal & fraudulent actions were taken by United Community Bank representatives. I am DEMANDING that all phone calls from the point in time of XX/XX/XXXX when I initiated the forbearance program under the cares act through the time period of XX/XX/XXXX be formally turned over to me either by transcript or by digital form. These phone calls DO EXIST and it is my desire to prove to United Community Bank of their fraudulent & illegal attempts to damage me & my credit with malice, by reviewing these transcripts & conversations. They continue to lie & manipulate, even when facts have been clear that they have made critical mistakes in executing my rights and use of programs under the cares act. They have also been issued a bill that is past due as a result of their malice behaviors. I am DEMANDING this information be turned over to me within the next 30 days. 

Additionally, United Community has purposefully made it difficult for me to make payments by not showing clear data on their website or giving me access to making regular payments other than using a bill payment method online as a backchannel payment method that does not clearly represent the actual payment required. They have continued to lie and present to all 3 credit bureaus false payment data that has ruined my credit and my ability to obtain additional credit. This purposeful misrepresentation and pervasive attacks are being done deliberately to force me to pay amounts that have no basis and are not valid. They have added late fee 's illegally and are inaccurately driving up my payment as well as inaccurately running a false/incorrect escrow analysis report that has additionally increased the monthly payment falsely. This bank is CLEARLY doing deliberate illegal activities and as reported in the news of their financial struggles as a company, should be INVESTIGATED FULLY by the Federal Government.
