On XXXX night I bought a tv and XXXX from Best Buy. At the checkout the guy told me I could get 10 % off if I applied for a card. During the process their system froze. They told me it was happening all night. I purchased the stuff on my regular credit card without getting the 10 % off. Later I received an email welcoming me to the credit card. 
I called today to tell them they card was a fraud because I never finished the process. They said they would cancel it. They then said they wanted me to verify my address so they could send me correspondence. I told them they have my permission to open the account in the first place and I would not provide them additional information. I also told the I was contacting CFPB.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (MN)

I have a XXXX credit card and have had it about 4 months. My credit limit was set at {$500.00} and my minimum payment was $ XXXXmonth. I just made a payment of {$300.00} on XX/XX/XXXXwhich dropped due balance to {$200.00} but I wo n't have access or use my card until  XX/XX/XXXX because I made a larger than minimum payment. My payment cleared my bank account XX/XX/XXXX effective XX/XX/XXXX when I made the on-line payment. The payment posted on XX/XX/XXXX but I ca n't have access to it until XX/XX/XXXX. I have argued with two people on the customer service line ( which is another nightmare just trying to talk to a real person ) and asked why they would punish a customer for making a larger than minimum payment and not letting them have access to their money to spend in their store. All I got were apologies and saying it was a policy with risk management. I asked how can I be a risk making a larger than normal payment and they were taking it directly from my checking account? I want access to the money I paid on my card as soon as it clears my bank.

I sent that letter to state that I currently was eligible for those funds and released it! Chime found it unusual activities and asked to upload documents. I sent everything they asked for, plus utilities, lease, redetermination letter for PUA, my lease and ID. I sent this multiple times for days because they keep sending me to the same emails stating that they have not received it. Ive sent this information to all Chime support, review @ chime, outreach @ chime, used the link they sent me and through their support for requests. They suspended my account when Ive sent all documents. I called customer service and they said they dont see the documents Im uploading on the link but they see the screenshots stating they have received the documents and they will escalate. Then they sent these same emails that they have not received it. Customer agents are limited and very rude!!! They wont fix anything. Im XXXX and need all my money. May you help?

Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (NJ)

I am writing to you regarding the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and a complaint I have regarding your attempts to sue me for a debt while I am currently experiencing financial hardship. 

As you are aware, the FCRA is a federal law that regulates the collection, dissemination, and use of consumer credit information. The purpose of this law is to ensure that credit reporting agencies and creditors, like yourself, follow fair and accurate practices in their dealings with consumers. 

Despite my current financial crisis, you have chosen to take legal action against me for a debt that I am unable to pay at this time. This action is in violation of the FCRA, which prohibits creditors from taking legal action against a consumer who is experiencing financial hardship. 

Furthermore, the FCRA requires that creditors like you report accurate and complete information about a consumer 's credit history. In my case, I believe that your reporting of this debt has been inaccurate and misleading, as it fails to take into account my current financial situation.

I have sent  XXXX  several letters regarding the inaccurate information they are reporting to credit bureau but they consist on continuing sending false information and they also are re-ageing this account to keep it on my credit report longer.This is really hurting me financially and mentally.   I recently disputed this account with the credit bureaus and the information was reported as verified and accurate.I 'm sure we both understand that most disputes are often conducted using software, such as  XXXX , and that mistakes can be made.   On  XXXX  -17 I se nt them a certified letter asking them to investigate. Also to send me an explanation of the methods used, and a description/copies of records reviewed, when they conducted their investigation so I can conduct my own investigation into the accuracy of their records and verify that a reasonable investigation was completed. According to FCRA if they can not perform a reasonable investigation they have to remove this account from the credit bureau ASAP!   If not i will sue. The original creditor can be held liable for reporting inaccurate informati on (   XXXX  vs.  XXXX ,  XXXX  vs.  XXXX   XXXX   ), the FACTA l egislation passed recently allows the consumer to go directly to the original creditor and dispute information which the original creditor ( called the information furnisher ) in the FCRA, has supplied to the credit bureaus.   .

Company: EZCORP, INC. (NY)

I took out a payday loan in XX/XX/XXXXXXXX for {$440.00} from EZ Corp. In XXXX XXXX Iowa. This is n't the first call that I have received from this shady collection company. They claimed that their name is XXXX Investigations and that there is a pending criminal case being held against me, and that I will have a warrant issued against me and they will come to my work or home and pick me up and process me at the police station. they also called my XXXX year old grandmother and used the same scare tactic on her about me, she called me very upset and concerned. I called this company back and they said that my balance was {$2000.00} with attorney and court fees. I told them I would try to take care of this even though it was included in my chapter XXXX bankruptcy in XX/XX/XXXX. They said they would contact whoever to see if they could get the charges dropped and get me into a repayment arrangement. They came back with {$790.00} which is still way higher than what I actually owe, they said I have until the end of today to pay that amount or the charges were going to be pursued further. when I notified the woman that I could not afford that amount. and i told her that the call was being recorded she became irate and combative and hung up on me. She also gave me an address of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Texas XXXX I 'm not sure if that is a good address or not of if she gave me a bogus address. She said her name was XXXX XXXX and the phone number she gave me was XXXX. I believe she now blocked my phone number from calling her because I can no longer reach her and it goes right to voicemail. I contacted the original creditor which appears to be out of business now, which is no surprise if this is how they handle business, but it had a voicemail to leave messages and they said that I will get a call back within 7 business days. When they call me back I will find out exactly who they placed my debt with and the Real name and contact information to the company that is harassing me and my family members. Once i told her i was filing complaints with several offices she said do what you need to and hung up. i said i would pay what i owed if she did n't use these tactics but once i told her everything was recorded she refused everything. She continued to hang up on me.
