Regarding XXXX XXXX : I viewed my Experian credit report today and my credit score has dropped because of the investigation with XXXX XXXX. Who ever heard of submitting a dispute and all of a sudden, your credit score gets worse? Truly unbelievable. Once again, this account was NEVER in collections. I was never notified by mail or email or phone. Even when I spoke with XXXX, they said the account was never in collections. According to my credit report from XXXX it shows I was in collections for {$900.00} for the month of XXXX. This is a classic example of a major company not communicating with another department within their company. That account was paid in full on XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/2023. How can I have a collection account with them for the month of XXXX when it was paid to a XXXX  balance on XX/XX/2023? ( Document provided ) What did they wait until I paid them off and then say I was in collections on the same day? If you view the documents, I'm providing you'll see according to them on XX/XX/2023 I paid them {$840.00}, and it shows the remaining balance owed to them is XXXX. On XX/XX/2023, I paid them {$900.00}, and it shows the remaining balance owed to them is XXXX. How could I have a collection account on this account from XX/XX/2023 to XX/XX/2023 when both receipts SHOW a XXXX  balance owed. This account was never in collections, and I want it removed from my credit report and I want my credit points reinstated immediately.

This is my third complaint against XXXX XXXX at Capital One. He continues to close my account without thoroughly investigating. He sent me a copy of a form that looks made up and isn't my signature. I called him several times, but he did not answer. XXXX XXXX had a pig of a salesman who literally ran my credit multiple times without permission and XXXX XXXX declined my request to remove the hard inquiry. I reported it to my state attorney department that handles this and hopefully they take care of it. I will not stop until I get justice and get these illegal acts removed.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (CA)

My bank, JP Morgan Chase, removed {$1300.00} from my account claiming that one of my payroll checks was deposited twice, both mobile and the live check. The money was removed 3.5 weeks after my mobile deposit was accepted and the original check was destroyed. I informed Chase that there records were incorrect and provided definitive proof that a live check was never deposited. My payroll check was issued from XXXX XXXX. I provided Chase with the XXXX XXXX account statement that issued my check, which showed that there was only one transaction for the check in question. Still, this was not adequate proof for Chase to put my money back into my account. I was informed that a live check deposit always trumps a mobil deposit. They told me I had to open a claim at XXXX XXXX too, which my employer did. It has been 13 days since I first contacted Chase about their error. I have made phone calls to the customer support number on my bank card and to my local branch. Customer support has no record of my claim, and my local branch refuses to return my phone calls. I've asked for updats or documents and I've been told there is nothing they can give me. I was given a claim number on a POST IT note, but Chase customer support informs me that number is incorrect.

Timeline of Events. 

1. XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX sent out wrong credit report that effected my credit approval. My score went from XXXX XXXX XXXX  for six months XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ) before being fixed. 

2. XX/XX/XXXX Citibank : I had a {$27000.00} credit limit with Citicards in good standing at a {$0.00} balance. I have never had a late payment or missed payment for any of my credit accounts. Citibank took away over 75 % of my credit line for no reason. They also raised the APR on all three cards ( Dividend, Double Cash, Simplicity ) to almost 29.9 % from 14 %. When I talked to a credit representative they verbally said " My credit was not good and that my income was not enough to have this much of a credit line. '' My credit balances on all my other cards has never changed and I was never delinquent on any bills. After hearing this from Citibank, I demanded a letter in writing stating what they told me and they did in fact send me a letter about this incident. I have the letter in my possession and it states something different than what was verbally told to me. 

3. I have 8 major credit cards ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ) with a combined credit line of {$100000.00} with only {$15000.00} balance used at a 15 % utilization. When Citbank took away my credit balance with no notice, it put me over a 20-30 % utilization for all my credit all around. This has caused all other credit cards to stop with APR promo financing, stop giving me a credit balance increase, stop from renting a new apartment, and even stopped me from getting a great rate on a new car. 

4. Citibank has avoided mortgages to minorities in the past, they had a XXXX lawsuit regarding failed oversight on consumer percentage rates, and now we have a proposed class action lawsuit against Citibank and XXXX  families in XXXX. I truly believe Citi either used an algorithm to attack my credit because of the hyphen in my last name ( XXXX ) or Citi reevaluated my account with a bogus credit report from XXXX. They used the bogus report to take away credit and to raise the APR rate. 

5. I truly feel taken advantage of and did not know what to do for the last two years until I saw the lawsuit regarding the algorithm and XXXX XXXX
