Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Valon Technologies, Inc. (CA)

XX/XX/XXXX payment made within grace period. Due to an error on my part I wrote the correct amount on my check when i wrote in the numerical amount in the box on the check.. However when I wrote the amount out in the text field, I neglected to put XXXX  cents after the full dollar amount. 
I was unware of this error until I received a phone call saying I was delinquent on XXXX  Delinquent for XXXX cents? Wouldn't it make sense to take that amount from my escrow account that had thousands of dollars in it? But instead Valon chose to show me delinquent. Again, I received this call on XX/XX/XXXX. It was recorded and the gentlemen I spoke with assured me that I would not be charged an over {$50.00} late fee. 

I sold this property and escrow closed on the XXXX XXXX XXXX When I received the final closing statement, much to my surprise it showed that a {$52.00} late charge was included in the payoff amount. 
As an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  who made a simple mistake I am sure that Valon can not justify a {$52.00} late charge over a XXXX  cent payment shortage. And of course, the call recording will show that the agent I spoke with agreed that a late charge would not be assessed. 

For clarity, my account will show a {$13000.00} payment on XXXX That amount was held in suspense until I paid {$10.00} with the agent on the phone on XX/XX/XXXX. Seemed silly to make an ACH payment for XXXX cents.

I am writing to formally dispute the presence of unauthorized and inaccurate accounts and inquiries on my credit report, which I received on [ Date of Credit Report ]. After a careful review, I have identified multiple accounts and credit inquiries that I did not initiate, authorize, or recognize. These entries appear to have been added to my credit report in error or as a result of fraudulent activity.The inclusion of these erroneous items has unfairly impacted my credit score and overall financial standing. This matter is causing significant concern, as my credit history is being unjustly damaged by information that is neither accurate nor reflective of my true financial activities.

Issue: Getting a credit card — Problem getting a working replacement card
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (CA)

I was at Kohls in XXXX CA on XX/XX/2022 with an existing Kohls card and a mailer thanking us for having a card for 15 years. ( The card holder is my mother, who was present and using the card to purchase a few items ). When we attempted to use the existing card, the cashier told us the card was not working since it had not been used for several years. We were informed she had to reactivate the card. We followed her directions of entering the name, social security number etc on the terminal. We STOPPED and said that it was appearing that we were applying for a new card. She said again that it was only to reactivate the card. When the terminal promoted for annual income we stopped again and VERY CLEARLY stated that we did not want to apply for a new card. We were again told that this was a reactivation. When we finished entering all the information the cashier told us, YOUR APPLICATION was denied!!!!! She lied to us and made us apply for a new card. Our existing card was not reactivated. This is exactly the same as XXXX XXXX customers given a credit card when it was not requested. We did not want to apply for a card, simply reinstate a card that had been in existence for 15 years. This is so wrong. Bait and Switch. Unfair credit practices. And what is worse is the LYING cashier saying that we were not applying for a card.
