The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is all about making sure credit reporting is fair and accurate. When there are violations under the FCRA, it messes up the banking system, which relies on accurate credit reports. Unfair credit reporting can also shake people 's trust in the system. So, if any of my accounts get reported without my permission, that's basically identity theft, and it's a breach of my privacy since I should have control over what's listed. Luckily, there are laws like 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 that protect me. This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for accounts listed without my expressed written consent. These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.

I am CITI Prestige card member ending XXXX. I used CITI Prestige card to book XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX at XXXX UT, address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, UT XXXX. I was staying at that hotel on XX/XX/XXXX to  XX/XX/XXXX, Confirmation number XXXX. I have disputed XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for XXXX $ room charge on my prestige card due to the hotel service is unexpected and unacceptable. The hotel room has bed bug and I and my partner got serious XXXX at the hotel. I have pics indicating the blood staining on the bed after the XXXX and the XXXX on my XXXX and XXXX as well as my partner, as well as doctor visit documents. I contacted the hotel but they refuse to admit the bed bug XXXX and refund my money. They do n't reply my email nor willing to solve the complaint, just ignore me. The customer service of the hotel is bad. The bed bug XXXX causes us serious XXXX and XXXX XXXX and XXXX and also, we need to spend lots of time cleaning our belongings and our room for preventing the bed bug from your hotel to my home. We also need to see the doctor and waste my time to work. The room is not as we expected when we book at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX website using Prestige card as it claimed the room will be clean without bedbug. That 's why I dispute the charge on Citi Prestige card for unacceptable and unexpected hotel service. I received a letter from CITI on XX/XX/XXXX, and ask me to provide evidence why I believe the service is not as expected. I have contacted CITI dispute department and provide evidence by email onXX/XX/XXXX. The CITI dispute department claimed this is due to the quality of service not as expected and they can not dispute the charge. However, this is not the case when I apply for the Prestige card. You have the option when I choose to online dispute as " service not as expected '' and claimed this card is best for the customer with travel in the hotel. However, based on the evidence I provided the hotel is dirty and with bedbugs, and the confirmation email from hotel stated the room and bed will be clean, which is definitely not as what it described. I checked the Prestige card instruction of dispute and in no place stated that you can not dispute charge based on the service received. Also, the letter I received from CITI asked me if I want to continue dispute and asked me to provide evidence why I believe the service is not as expected. That 's why I spend about 3 hr. to gather information and sent to CITI on XX/XX/XXXX. If  you can not dispute based on service not as expected why you asked me to send you evidence on my side? This is totally misleading and I am really unhappy with the outcome. I really hope CITI could help me in this case at your earliest convenience and refund the charge on my account. Thank you!

Im honestly stumped. Regardless of how many times I claim to be the individual writing this letter it seems this message is truly missed. For the record, Im the one whos initiating these disputes under my name. The following items are UNKNOWN to ME. I dont get why youre claiming these are fraudulent or of a high risk nature. The documents Ive provided are legit. These are mine, filed with the appropriate agencies & support my position. Lets get the record straight!!! First of all I know that under Section 619 Obtaining information under false pretenses that any person who knowingly and willfully obtains information on a consumer from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses shall be fined under title 18 United States Code, imprisoned for not more than 2 years, or both. Most importantly, Ive never sent my documentation to anyone else which seems to be a claim that constitutes high-risk due to potential fraud. According to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 3 ) Determination That Dispute IsFrivolous or irrelevant ( A ) a consumer reporting agency may terminate a reinvestigation of information disputed by a consumer under that paragraph if the agency reasonably determines that the dispute by the consumer is frivolous or irrelevant, including by reason of a failure by a consumer to provide sufficient information to investigate the disputed information. ( B ) Notice of determination. Upon making any determination in accordance with subparagraph ( A ) that a dispute is frivolous or irrelevant, a consumer reporting agency shall notify the consumer of such determination not later than 5 business days after making such determination, by mail or, if authorized by the consumer for that purpose, by any other means available to the agency. Again, under 617 Civil liability for negligent noncompliance [ 15U.S.C. 1681o ] a person who is negligent in failing to comply with any requirement imposed under this title with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure; and ( 2 ) in the case of any successful action to enforce any liability under this section, the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court.

To Whom It May Concern : I recently received a copy of my ( Experian ) credit report, and I noticed that you are still reporting a medical collection under the {$500.00} threshold. Starting in 2023, XXXX XXXX tradelines less than {$500.00} will no longer be reported on consumer credit reports. Medical bills under {$500.00} are significantly more likely to remain on a credit report for longer than medical bills over {$500.00}. For patients and families who have only relatively small outstanding medical bills, the {$500.00} threshold could mean a large reduction in coercive credit reporting.

Hi, My name is XXXX XXXX. I sent a letter concerning erroneous and unknown things on my credit score record. To this present day, over 30 days later, I actually have no longer obtained a response yet. I sense like Im being taken advantaged of and being unnoticed. Section 611 ( a ), It states that failure to research these objects inside 30 days offers a purpose to straight away remove those items from my credit report. Its been over 30 days so they have to be deleted directly. I demand that those debts be deleted without delay or I will report for litigation due to the stress you have caused me. My records turned into also impacted by way of the XXXX data breach and might are becoming into the fingers of the wrong person.

Issue: Problem when making payments — You never received your bill or did not know a payment was due
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (SC)

I always pay my bills on time. Comenity Bank has taken over XXXX XXXX and has not sent me a statement. I normally pay all my bills by money order so its very important that I receive my statements because this is how I know to pay my bill. I don't online pay any of my bills. 
Even though I have not received a statement I called to get the address on XX/XX/XXXX so that I could send my payment off in time to reach the bank. The payment was mailed on XXXX XXXX. 
On this particular day I sent 3 bills out in the mail. The other two have posted as paid but not the one I sent to Comenity. The address that the lady on the phone gave me is Comenity Capital Bank XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX TX XXXX. This is where I sent my {$100.00} money order. 
I don't know why this payment hasn't posted since the other two that I sent on the same day reached their destinations. It may have something to do with the fact that I have never received a statement from Comenity Bank about my payment but whatever it is it's on their end and not mine. 
When I called today, XXXX XXXX, 2023 the person I spoke with said I would most likely get a late fee if they don't receive my payment by Friday, XXXX XXXX. I reminded her that I never received a statement and that a late fee is unfair because Comenity Bank didn't do their part by sending me the statement ( acrually they haven't sent anything with my new account info ). 
I should not get penalized while they try to figure out why I haven't received a statement or any new account info from them. The bigger issue is that I do not want my credit score impacted because of their slackness. Why should my credit take a hit because of this bank transfer. I have NEVER been late on any payment that I have. As a bank they know how lateness negatively affects the credit score. They need to get this fixed ASAP.
