Sub-product: Credit card
Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not mine

Complaint:
I did hold a credit card account with XXXX issued by Synchrony Bank from XX/XX/XXXX till XX/XX/XXXX when it was closed. On XX/XX/XXXX was the last payment made on the card showing zero balance. Since XX/XX/XXXX till XX/XX/XXXX there was no activity on the account. During the months of XX/XX/XXXX I have received a notice from a collection agency that I owe them {$690.00} that they claim I did not pay XXXX. When asked to prove the charges no one was able to produce said charges because they never existed. Since XX/XX/XXXX till now I have not received what I have requested but said information was reported to the credit bureau as bad debt. 

Merchandise was returned to XXXX and credit was received but Synchrony Bank or XXXX some how decided that I owe them the {$690.00} when that amount was credited to the account based on merchandise returned to them.

Issue: Billing disputes

Complaint:
Thank you for being there. I called this afternoon o XXXX/XXXX/2016 about a problem I 'm having with a credit card. I called them on XXXX XXXX to make sure I had the correct amount I owed since I had a fraud issue on my accounts so bad that they wiped out both of my windows with all my info. My one computer is still being worked on. I called the credit card company twice to be sure the amount was correct so I could pay them in full have them send me a new card and start over fresh. I was told twice the same amount and paid it and got a conf. # that I was paid in full. Then I received a e-mail stating The amount was different and was told 3 different totals. I had transferred a card over to this on even the fraud case was still open Then the other credit card found in my favor and the info was sent to this card I 'm writing to you about. They told me I owed them for the XXXX article that I was found innocent of. I called the company that had the fraud in the beginning and they confirmed that that had paid it and I owed them nothing nor the card I 'm in dispute with. They are going to send me the info. to prove my case once again and she said it would take 10 to 12 days. I 'm sending that info to you so you can please stop all this. They have had me in tears. XXXX. Although most of the time I 'm at the XXXX. To me this is pure harassment and I can not deal with it any more and I truly believe they should have to pay me for what they have put me through. It is wrong I have done everything. Had info and proof faxed to them and this was never brought up until I was paying off the bill. Where I even called twice to make sure the amount was correct due to all the fraud. Being honest and this happens I 'm done and would like to see them get fined for the lack of experience they have and the treatment I was given. 
Thank you

Issue: Rewards

Complaint:
Barclay Card closed my credit card accounts. I was NEVER late on even one payment. I NEVER defaulted on any amount owed with them ; I have paid them every cent that was owed and did it on-time or before it was due. For whatever reason, which they never gave me, they decided to close the accounts and take from me the rewards that were rightfully mine as they were earned under proper circumstances. Again, I was never late on a payment or missed one either. I 'm asking CFPB to help me get my rewards back.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint:
I entered into a lease with Mercedes Benz on XXXX/XXXX/15. The lease was for a 2015 XXXX. Within three months, the vehicle 's radio stopped functioning and required replacing. Seven months thereafter, the navigation stopped functioning and requires replacing. Within that same month, the engine requires rebuilding after taking the vehicle in for noise coming from the front of the vehicle and shaking. Prior to a year into the lease, all of the above occurred and I was out of my vehicle and in a loaner more than I was in my vehicle. At that point, I asked the claims management department to take me out of this faulty vehicle and place me into a different vehicle, as a means of good faith. They refused.

Complaint:
Ive been trying to dispute several items on my report but my dispute has been ignored. I am requesting that the Credit Reporting Agencies look into this matter as required to do so under the FCRA. If you do not comply with the terms of the FCRA I will have no choice but consider the possibility of litigation. 

XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} The fact that you are still listing this account as being past due despite the fact that it has been paid in full and has no outstanding amount is a blatant violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I never missed a payment on this account. My records indicate that I never missed a payment on this account, which was paid as agreed. I need you to please either entirely erase the disputed account from this account 's payment history or take care of the late payments. 

XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX : {$1.00}, XXXX You have done nothing despite my repeated attempts to dispute this account and get the payment history updated. I never made late payments for this account, hence the late payments that are shown in the payment history of the account are false. Please update the payment history as soon as you can by deleting the recorded late payments. 

XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$1100.00} This statement was never late and never will be. I've tried to ask you to alter the payment history since you are putting false and inaccurate information about me on my credit record. I ask that you stop reporting late payments on this account and only provide truthful information going forward. The FCRA requires proper credit reporting.

Complaint:
I received a letter from a Enhanced Recovery Corp, a collection agency last spring for a debt for XXXX cell phone service. This is not my debt-I do not even have a XXXX cell phone account. After contacting Enhanced Recovery several times, as well as XXXX, I found out that the account holder is another man with the same name as mine ( which is a " common '' name according to an Enhanced Recovery representative ), but he has a different address ( his address is in Texas and I have lived in NC all my life ) and a different date of birth. In addition, the XXXX representative told me that there is not a social security number associated with the debt. I sent a certified letter to Enhanced Recovery saying that this was not my debt and they were contacting the wrong person. Thus, I thought this problem was resolved a few weeks ago, but now I see that Enhanced Recovery has submitted a complaint on my credit report. I do not know how this is possible if the date of birth for the account holder is different and they have no social security number. So to be clear, it does not seem like anyone has stolen my identity. Rather, Enhanced Recovery has limited ( and erroneous ) identity information on this debt and yet still continues to try to collect this debt from me. There are no other problems on my otherwise stellar credit history. This complaint from Enhanced Recovery on my credit dropped my score from over XXXX to XXXX.

IT WAS A SALES PROMOTION, NOT INTEREST ON MY ACCOUNT. I have complained several times. I receive only XXXX social security. It being listed as interest or job income changes my IRS filing status. I want it listed for what it was A SALES PROMOTION. I only received {$0.00} interest for 2015.
