Complaint:
Dear Experian, I checked my personal credit report, which I acquired from your organization on XX/XX/XXXX and I noticed a double inquiry had been made on XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted XXXX/XXXX, who conducted the inquiry and asked them to remove their credit inquiry from my credit profile. According to XXXX/XXXX   they could not verify that the information was being reported. I request that you initiate a REINVESTIGATION into XXXX/XXXX  ( XX/XX/XXXX ) inquiry on my credit report to determine who authorized the inquiry. If, once your XXXX is complete, you find my allegation to be true, please remove the fraudulent inquiry. DO NOT CONTACT ME VIA US MAIL. Please note that although the inquiry shown on my credit report is a factual record of the company who accessed and reviewed my profile and although it is only logged on the report, when in fact, an inquiry was made ; a record of this activity, pursuant to federal law, must NOT remain a part of record if the inquiry was Not Permissable. If you find the inquiry referenced above to be valid, PLEASE RESPOND ONLY VIA THE CFPB PORTAL with a description of the procedures used in your REINVESTIGATION for THIS SPECIFIC INQUIRY within 15 business days of the completion of the REINVESTIGATION. Thank you for your assistance in this matter. Very Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
Sears/Citibank finance a washer/dryer 0 % interest XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. Paying approx. {$300.00} a month and had payment scheduled to pay off by XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Sears/Citibank sent offer 0 % until XX/XX/XXXX. InXX/XX/XXXX - I took the offer to pay off another debt. Made normal payment inXX/XX/XXXX of {$300.00}, to pay off loan expiring inXX/XX/XXXX Sears/Citibank took the entire {$300.00} and posted to new promotion loan I just took out a few days before and will not move any of that payment to loan expiring XX/XX/XXXX. Made a payment of {$400.00} on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$400.00}, Sears/Citibank took the entire {$400.00} and posted {$400.00} to the new loan I took out in XX/XX/XXXX. Called Sears/Citibank 4 times and each customer service rep refused to move any of the {$700.00} over the two months to loan expiring XX/XX/XXXX. This is not what the promotional stated. On Sears/Citibank web site it states if you have two promotion payment will go 50/50. On the agreement when I sign the check for transfer it stated payment with post to account with highest APR % both have 0 % so it should be split. I believe Sears/Citibank is trying to cause me to pay the retro interest collected so far in the amount of {$400.00} plus dollars. I believe this is wrong practice for me as a consumer, Sears/Citibank is trying to set me up for failure.

Complaint:
I am XXXX XXXX and I am submitting this complaint myself and there is no third party involved. My request for the correction and removable of the erroneous information about my inquiry has been diligently neglected by Equifax. Despite sending them the complaint, dated XX/XX/XXXX, for the said request, I have not received any response up to this date. Besides, the inaccurate information about my inquiry is still on my reports. Therefore, Equifax has not complied with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC Sections 1681i within the time permitted by law and continued reporting as unverified information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes.

Company: American Coradius International LLC
State: CA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
On or about XX/XX/2021 I received a collection letter from American Coradius International ( ACI ) advising that I owed {$80.00} to XXXX and attempting to collect on such debt. At the same time, I contacted XXXX and confirmed that no such debt is owed. Based on the same, correspondence was sent to ACI requesting that they perform their due diligence and stop communicating with me. Instead of responding to my correspondence, ACI continued to send me further collection letters for two additional accounts for a total of three accounts all indicating that I owe {$80.00} To XXXX. 

ACI has violated the fair debt collection practices act and California Civil Code section XXXX. They have repeatedly ignored my correspondence and at this stage based on their violation of law I am entitled to immediate relief. 

XXXX indicates prohibits the communication by a license collection agency to a debtor demanding money unless the claim is actually assigned to the collection agency. Again, there is no outstanding debt owed to XXXX and as such XXXX has not assigned a collection account to ACI for collection. As such, this is a clear violation and I am entitled to {$500.00} for each violation in the total amount of {$1500.00}.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint:
I paid in full XXXX $ to XXXX XXXX XXXX at XXXX on XXXX2017 by way of their online portal as outlined in XXXX XXXX XXXX. By XX/XX/XXXX I am receiving debt collection letters from Optimum Outcomes who states they now own the account, in addition to phone calls at least 6-8 times a day and weekends. The company has damaged my credit showing past due collections through credit reporting agencies with all accounts showing open and current collections. This has created significant damages against me, as I have been declined by a housing creditor due to the false information obtained in my credit report. I have disputed the matter with no resolution and disputing the matter through the credit bureaus additionally have shown no effect. This is not compliant with the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint:
After attempting to close a Chase Amazon credit card account I noticed that I had been charged over {$2000.00} in fees. Keep in mind that the credit card limit was only {$1000.00}. I have disputed the charges but I did not receive any results. It does not surprise me after leaving the military I had a auto loan that was automatically deducted each month. The problem was after I left the military the deductions continued after monthly deposits stopped. The account was overdrawn and before I noticed the account was sent to collections. I paid the day it was supposed to transfer to the collections company but Chase still reported the account to XXXX XXXX. My point being that Chase has a past of not talking care of even long time customers.

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX is calling me everyday about my student loan debt and harassing my wife as well everyday, when we have a high risk baby at home who needs 24 hour care and sleep. They are demanding I have to pay or my wife pay whom is a stay at home mother and takes care of our children and her sick grandmother. They yell with a threat to pay the total amount of 75,000+ dollars for private student loan debt. They are not my loan owner lender originator nothing and will not work with me just like XXXX would not work with me when I only make XXXX a year with a family of XXXX and 3 dogs. How in the world does their math equate me making any type of payment. And they keep calling me everyday telling me to make the full total payment like my financial situation changed and I just won the lotto jackpot overnight. I told them stop calling my wife, she has enough to deal with already and she did not create this debt. If you have a solution on how we can work something out I all ears but this is just ignorance on you and your company to call everyday making demands of total payment when I get paid today the same as yesterday and its enough to feed my family.

Complaint:
Using my personal identifying information I am able to obtain my credit reports except at TransUnion. The information on their file is not matching what I enter.

There is also a misspelling of my name associated with a XXXX XXXX account I have no knowledge of and never received any statements for. Had I received a credit card with the wrong spelling of my first name I would have called the credit card company to correct it. There is no way for me to put a fraud alert on TransUnion and obtain my report from them as I can not create an online account. I can with the other bureaus but TransUnion has information that is not matching my actual personal info.
