Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (AR)

Re CFPB Case XXXX. Capital One committed to crediting my account with {$2300.00} and " immediately '' issuing a check to me for that amount. On XX/XX/XXXX, a Capital One telephone representative confirmed the check had not been sent and would have it send. It now been another month and I am now, owed {$2300.00}, that is the principal plus 1 month interest at 23.24 % APY. That is the interest rate Capital One was charging my account when I had a positive balance in their favor. Next month 's interest charge will be {$45.00}. My next step will be to file a consumer complaint with the Arkansas Attorney General 's Office including additional complaints against CapitalOne.

Dear CFPB, Its truly fascinating that in XXXX, companies like XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX still seem to have a creative interpretation of what constitutes verification and proof of debt under federal law. Im writing, once again, to highlight the blatant disregard for consumer rights that XXXX XXXX XXXX has demonstrated regarding an alleged charge-off that is still haunting my credit report. Lets be perfectly clear : this is a demand for accountability and action, as XXXX XXXX XXXX has failed to produce legitimate proof that this debt, particularly one tied to alleged mileage overage charges, is in any way mine. 

To begin, I am invoking my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1601 ) where is the documented proof? Where are the itemized charges? The wet ink contract with my actual signature? Or did they perhaps forget that the law doesnt allow them to charge-off debts they cant properly verify? Im waiting for somethinganythingthat remotely resembles legitimate proof of this debt. 

But instead, what do I get? A repeated charge-off still lingering on my credit report, yet XXXX XXXX XXXX continues to collect mileage overage fees. Thats quite the double-dip, isnt it? I mean, charging it off for accounting purposes ( to perhaps secure a tax write-off ) while still benefiting from their collection efforts. If this isnt a text-book example of financial sleight of hand, I dont know what is. 

Let 's talk about their ongoing violations of my right to privacy. According to Title 15, U.S.C. 1681b, they are bound to ensure that any access and reporting of my private credit data is accurate and legally authorized. Failing to remove this unverified and dubious charge-off is a clear violation of my consumer rights. So let me remind XXXX XXXX XXXX that each violation of the FCRA entitles me to {$1000.00} in damages.

I made an attempt to contact them, they kept telling me I need to pay the loan in full and they could help me do that over the phone. When I told them I could not pay the amount in full, they said, well you will have to wait until we send you more paperwork. About a week later, I received information in the mail again asking for all my financial information.

There is no indication on this statement where the portion of the money that was kept was ever applied to my account. I have made numerous attempts over the years to get in contact with someone about this loan, with failed attempts. The loan information is not on my credit report as a default or open collection, etc as of   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  .

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (TX)

I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

My credit report has certain accounts that I'm not familiar with. Since I never gave them permission, they could be the product of identity theft. Having previously discussed this with you, I'm writing to request that these accounts be promptly deleted from my report in compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which mandates that credit bureaus rectify erroneous information on consumer credit reports. These accounts have caused me stress because they are on my report. It's been difficult to deal with the impact because they don't represent my financial responsibility or credit history. I'm ready to take legal action to protect my rights and find a solution under the FCRA if we can't work this out. The inaccurate items that appear on my credit report have been a big obstacle for me. They're getting in the way of my important financial goals, like buying a house and taking care of my family. I hope we can resolve this issue quickly.
