Consumer complaint received 2017-08-30
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (NY)

I have a business credit card with Citi bank. Under the business credit card, I added two employee cards. One of the employee cards was charged XXXX XXXX by XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX for a service that they never rendered to our company. On XX/XX/XXXX I called citibank customer service to dispute this charge. The representative who answered the call issued me a conditional credit of XXXX XXXX and told me that the bank is going to run an investigation. Since then, I 've never received any correspondence from Citi. On XX/XX/XXXX, I logged into my online account and realized that Citi reversed the conditional credit of XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, without informing me in any way. When I called the customer service, I was advised that because my dispute claim was made on XX/XX/XXXX,  which date is more than 120 days from the initial transaction posted date, there is nothing Citi can do but to charge me the XXXX XXXX. However, a few issues needed to be discussed here. First, the dispute was made on XX/XX/XXXX, when the conditional credit was posted to my account, instead of XX/XX/XXXX. Citi insisted that the dispute was made on XX/XX/XXXX. I would like them to provide proof of such claim. The dispute date makes a big difference here as XX/XX/XXXX falls within the 120 days period to make a dispute, but XX/XX/XXXX does not. Second issue is the first representative who accepted my dispute on XX/XX/XXXX NEVER EVER advised me on this " 120 days period ''. Rather, he advised me that Citi will run an investigation in this matter. It later turned out that Citi did n't bother to run an investigation. Instead, they changed the date of this dispute and simply set a date that falls a few days out of the " 120 days period ''. As a business customer, I feel that Citi does not care about their customers ' benefits at all. They have really lousy representatives who give wrong and contradicting information. Lastly, I spoke with a supervisor at billing dispute department on XX/XX/XXXX. Instead of listening to me, she simply told me that I should refer to the statement I received for dispute policy. However, what matters here is not what I know. What matters is what CITI 's representatives know and inform their customers accordingly. Citi simply does not care about their customers at all. 
Therefore, for issues stated above, I hereby make the following requests : 1. provide proof that my dispute date is XX/XX/XXXX as claimed by CITI 2. I need a written apology from CITI for all the troubles they made me go through and a written explanation from CITI in regard to the unprofessional-ism of CITI representative for failure to inform me of the 120 days rule, if truly existed. 3. Honor my dispute of the XXXX XXXX charge and credit my account accordingly. Thank you.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (IN)

My account with TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 


I demand the late payment reported in ( MONTHS REPORTING LATE ) to be removed. 


They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 


15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 


TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Delete the late payments from my consumer reports

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (GA)

I really need your help with the credit score because, as a result of the short sale, my credit score was reduced and I, being self-employed, am unable to obtain contracts to support my business. 
I went through a hardship, XXXX medical issues and XXXX % decrease of income within the last 5 years. I was advised by XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, Client Relationship Manager, and XXXX XXXX, Assets Disposition Department NOT to make our mortgage payment in order to qualify for any retention or liquidation options. 
I was originally placed on a forbearance plan that I was still unable to afford. Essentially, the forbearance plan ( type of retention option ), was designed to lower the mortgage payment ; however, in reality the forbearance only increased the loan amount owed - accrued late payments, principal and interest added to the back end of my loan. The forbearance, in itself, made my property underwater ; therefore owing more than the market value. 
Since the forbearance was no longer an option ( again referencing my medical hardship ), I was forced to short sale my property and move where I am now renting a home that is XXXX % less square footage This is a Securitized, Stated Income ( no doc ) loan. XXXX, the originator of the loan, sold the Servicing rights to XXXX XXXX when I became delinquent on my mortgage payments. The XXXX Loan Officer also told me I would need to be delinquent on my mortgage payments to qualify for any assistance due to my hardship. 
I believe there were numerous compliance irregularities during the origination of my loan due to the lowered underwriting standards. 
Additionally, the property was originally appraised at XXXX. Due to the recession, the value was decreased to {$620000.00}. 
I caused none of this. I was advised to be late on my mortgage payments ; I was caught in the middle of a recession and also diagnosed with XXXX XXXX all in a condensed period of time.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NY)

I am writing to file a formal complaint against TRANSUNION for its repeated failure to remove inaccurate account information from my credit report following two reinvestigations, which is in violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 

Account Information : Creditor Name : XXXX XXXX  Account Number : XXXX Despite providing clear evidence of the inaccuracies in the above-referenced account and requesting its removal from my credit report, TRANSUNION has failed to comply with the law and has retained the inaccurate account information.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act mandates that if a reinvestigation does not resolve a dispute, the credit bureau must delete the disputed information within five business days. The repeated failure of TRANSUNION to adhere to this requirement is a clear violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) and has caused me financial harm and distress.

I am requesting that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take immediate action against TRANSUNION for its non-compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I am seeking the immediate deletion of the inaccurate account information from my credit report and appropriate measures to ensure that TRANSUNION upholds its obligations under the law.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a prompt resolution and your assistance in rectifying this issue. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

My mortgage was transferred to Carrington Mortgage from XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX 2016. While I as at XXXX I have never missed a mortgage payment. I received a statement claiming I owe {$4800.00}. My normal mortgage payments are {$950.00}. Carrington Mortgage has changed the amount due ever month since the transfer to them. I pulled my credit report this year and found out I was being reported late for 3 month. I have since made an extra " normal '' mortgage payment to bring my account current. Now Carrington is charging me a monthly late fee for past due amount that I do not owe. My XX/XX/XXXX mortgage payment is not being accepted as they now want a minimum of {$2900.00} of which I do not have. By not accepting my mortgage payment will now cause me to again be late on my credit report, hurting my credit substantially. I need my account corrected, my payments accepted and my credit standing corrected. I have tried to dispute these " Unknown Fees '' that should never have been charged to my account with the credit bureaus and the Carrington Mortgage but the fees are still on my account. It also seems these fees was transferred from my original mortgagor, XXXX XXXX XXXX. As, I have NEVER been late my entire 12 years with them prior to the transfer, I should never have been assessed these enormous fees.
