Product: Debt collection

Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint:
This company contacted myself and four family members last evening around XXXX. They would not identify what type of company they were calling from and all they said is they needed to know my " location ''. They not once stated that they were attempting to collect a debt they just repeated the name of their company and would not answer what type of company this was to ensure my safety before advising my " location ''. Collectors should be calling to attempt to " contact '' a consumer, never to LOCATE them. I just left an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and the fact that this company called late at night and ALL of my family asking for my location made us contact authorities thinking it was related to this XXXX XXXX situation. Even when I called today and stated it was me, they would NOT tell me what their company does or why they were looking for me ( again IE if they were attempting to collect a debt ) unless I told them my DOB and home address. Of course they were XXXX  on top of it, absolutely no customer service on their part which caused EXTREME distress and frustration on my end. They stated their script of stating they are looking for a consumers " location '' and calling multiple family members was provided by the CFPB so it was legal. This tactic is scary and inappropriate for the consumer, as you never know what a consumer 's situation is, just like my situation explained about above. I hope this never happens to another consumer or their family again.

Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
XXXX ACCT # XXXX Pursuant to the Fair Credit Billing Act, A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose. This account is a billing error. This is not a refusal to pay but a notice that this alleged debt is disputed. I respectfully request your company provide me with documentary evidence validating this alleged debt. If no such evidence of indebtedness exists, and the only indebtedness is by agreement, you can not lawfully furnish these inaccurate late payments to the credit reporting agencies. The United States is bankrupt. If this alleged debt is valid, what authority do you have to collect this debt in the United States? If this alleged debt can not be validated and turns out to be an extension of credit, that would make the negative information provision in any agreement between us void and unenforceable. The continued reporting of these inaccurate late payments would constitute a breach of fiduciary duty by collecting this extension of credit by unlawful extortionate means. And under the CARES ACT which is still LAWFUL and has forbearance and credit reporting requirements that may apply to my situation. Since there is no law under the Fair Credit Reporting Act requiring XXXX XXXX to report negative information to a consumer reporting agency, your company is knowingly reporting inaccurate information to the consumer reporting agencies. Reporting information with reasonable cause to believe is inaccurate violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act. XXXX XXXX XXXX  policy does not supersede FEDERAL LAW. I am demanding that all late payments are UPDATED to PAID AS AGREED and a DELETION of each late payment be submitted to the credit reporting agencies immediately to prevent my consumer credit reputation from receiving further harm.

Complaint:
Upon checkout at macys online I was prompted to apply for a store card to save a percentage and earn points towards future purchases. I applied at checkout and was approved for the macys store card. I then returned to checkout to find the card had not been added. I called the customer service and the outsourced agent did not speak or understand XXXX well enough to understand my problem. She then said I could just tell her what I wanted to buy and she'd place the order. I was so confused by this so I went to macys and when they called on my behalf they coul not resolve the issue either or explain why I would be prompted to apply to save on my order then not be given the savings or the card added to my account. Macys customer service could not add the card my my account either. I never received the promotional points or percentage of my order and was unable to charge the items and paid another way. Predatory way to get people to apply.
