Complaint:
My mother since 2012 has been receiving calls from a XXXX Company looking for XXXX. My mother, XXXX XXXX, since having acquired the number in 2012 from XXXX started receiving calls. As she does not speak XXXX, she tells me that they call and hang up once she starts talking. I return the numerous calls and after speaking to someone, always find out its actually for an XXXX XXXX. After a heartless apology for the mistake the countless reps over the years have vowed with every fiber of their being to remove the number to ensure she never gets a call again. A few months go by before another call looking for an XXXX XXXX from the same company. Today was the last straw, I called back and spoke to a representative and then his manager XXXX XXXX who was extremely rude, condescending, and was deriding my XXXX background when I was speaking to my mother the victim of these non-stop harassment calls that she does not understand. XXXX kept overtalking me and refused to apologize for the way he was speaking to me. Again the calls for XXXX XXXX has been ongoing for over 3 years. XXXX has confirmed with me that the they have XXXX XXXX for my mothers number XXXX and they do not know why this collection company say its XXXX XXXX.

Product: Credit card
Issue: Billing statement

Complaint:
signed up thru Home Depot account ( Citi group ) Payment was made thru this system. Received an alert for change on credit report, upon investigation it was determined this was the account that alerted. I received NO indication that this was an issue, however I continued to receive marketing materials from them. I contacted HD credit card services they initially stated that there was some problem in processing. Best they came up with was that the routing number information must have been entered wrong. No answer given was in any attempt to rectify this issue just excuses. Was forwarded up the chain and was told that when the payment was made they would forward that for consideration for removal. Was given the run around when asked when this would be removed and why was I not notified of this issue before the credit report was made. As of today that account will be current to satisfy the issue however i received no satisfactory answer as to this report on my credit.

It is depressing to see the Credit Reporting Agencies do nothing with regards to my appeals for them to remove the disputed items that resulted due to Idenity Theft. I have already sent nineteen dispute letters pointing out the fact that I was a Victim of identity theft and that I never received anything nor benefits as the result of the theft of my identity. With the Creit Bureaus decision to ignore my written appeals, they have violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act section 605b and I am planning to take legal actions against the Credit Bureaus. I feel like all XXXX efforts ahad gone to waste and that the Credit Bureaus liked seeing a consumer like me suffer because of their negligent and non-compliance. I have informed my legal council about my plans and they are willing to help me. Once again, I need the Credit Bureaus Remove the Following items pursuant of the FCRA section 605b as soon as possible : XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX, NV XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX CA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NV XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2020 XXXX XX/XX/2020

Complaint:
I have written to Bank of America at least XXXX times pointing out that they are inaccurately reporting information on my credit report. They have not responded or made the necessary changes as required by FCRA. My last letter were dated XXXX XXXX, 2015 which is attached together with a copy of the credit report excerpt showing:1 ) that this mortgage was paid off for less than full amount2 ) I have been 120 past due for the last 2 yrsNone of the above is true especially when you note that they are reporting a closed loan with a 0 balance. This reporting can not be 100 % accurate as required by FCRA.. I do n't understand how they can avoid compliance with the law. I need your help. This inaccurate reporting and failure to rectify this matter despite my many prior letters requesting is hurting my credit and negatively affecting my ability to get a new home loan.

Product: Credit card
Issue: Late fee

Complaint:
What Macy 's is up to with its collections and compounding late-fee practices does n't seem ethical to me, and hopefully will become illegal. 
After making about {$600.00} in purchases XX/XX/XXXX, I set up my monthly {$25.00} Macy 's payments set up with my bank ( XXXX XXXX ) to go out XX/XX/XXXX, three days before the due date ( XX/XX/XXXX ). 
XX/XX/XXXX I started getting five calls a day ( literally ) from Macy 's that my payments were late and I was behind! Say what?! 
I called XXXX to ask what the heck was going on. They explained that if XX/XX/XXXX fell on a weekend, as it had in XX/XX/XXXX, they wait until the following Monday ( or Tuesday, if a long weekend ) to send it. 
And because I did n't know about it and my next auto payment in XX/XX/XXXX did not include the {$35.00} late fee, Macy 's charged me ANOTHER late fee, so were not claiming I owed them {$70.00}. : - ( I unhappily paid the late fees and requested that XXXX to move the payment dates up by 2-3 days, to XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX. 
2-3 months later, more harassment calls from Macy 's started. Same story : XXXX late payments and compounding late fees. 
I called XXXX again -- the person I spoke with earlier at the bank had n't moved the pay-out date. I stayed on the phone this time to get confirmation as XXXX moved the date up to XXXX, a full week before my Macy 's payments were due. 

Out of principle, because their practice of charging late fees for unpaid late fees is so very wrong, I have dug in my heels and not paid the late fees. So although my minimal {$25.00} per month has been paid like clockwork each month since XX/XX/XXXX, Macy 's has continued to mount hundreds of dollars in late fees. 
My letters to the exec offices of Macy 's have done no good. They are intransigent about this practice, which to me, seems like extortion. 

I closed the account and told them I will be paying off my entire bill for the merchandise and interest, but out of principle, I that I will not be paying them their late fees. 
Please look into this, and press for reforms to any legal loopholes that allows Macy 's to take advantage of consumers in this way. 

Thank you. 
XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
This account was never late and the Credit Bureaus was reporting inaccurate information on my Credit File. There are multiple errors in the listing that are damaging to me including balance, payment status, and date of last payment. I do not believe I was late on the dates you are reporting. The account XXXX XXXX with Balance Owed : {$0.00} and Date Opened : XX/XX/2020, is reporting inaccurate information. I have been sending letters to the Credit Bureaus regarding this matter and that the Credit Bureaus must confirm the validity of the account in question by conducting an investigation and correct any errors on my Credit File. But despite all my effort to establish a contact with the Credit Bureaus, they seemed to not care at all. If the Credit Bureaus do not take the matter I am disputing, well I do! As a consumer, I have the rights to request an investigation and correct my Credit file. I am exercising my rights by submitting this complaint and I am looking forward to see the Credit Bureaus correct my Credit Report as soon as possible.
