Consumer complaint received 2020-04-23
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with balance transfer
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (ME)

In XXXX of XXXX  I made a balance transfer from Barclays XXXX XXXX Credit Card to my husband 's XXXX Credit Card in the amount of {$8000.00}. This transfer was processed and paid by XXXX Credit Card and it was cashed and cleared by Barclay 's on XX/XX/2019. 
I checked my Barclays account in XX/XX/2019 only to find that the {$8000.00} had never been credited. I called both Barclays and XXXX Credit Card. XXXX told me that the check had been cashed. Barclays told me to wait 10 more days and call back. 
Since that time I have been on the phone and in Live chats with Barclays for hours upon hours as the months have passed. They have continued to request information from me and XXXX Credit Card, all of which has been provided on 4 separate occasions to the fax and the address that they supplied ( XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). When I call to see if they have received the information they tell me they aren't able to give me any information because a different department deals with the investigation. They then tell me I have to wait 30-45 days. After 30 days is up they close the 'investigation ' and state that they never received the information. I am then forced to open a new investigation. 
Now when I call they tell me that things are slow and they are understaffed because of COVID-19. I have spent 2 and a half hours on hold on two separate occasions. 
At this point I have spent six months trying to get the {$8000.00} off of my account. They received my money, deposited the money on XX/XX/2019, yet they have no idea where the money was placed. I have repeatedly asked them to freeze my account until they figure out where they misplaced my money. Currently they are sending me emails telling me that my payment is overdue. They have charged me interest and late fees on the {$8000.00}. 
At this point my frustration level is very high, as I have spent countless hours on the phone with them, only to get the same answer. XXXX Credit Card has continued to send the information they have asked for, and I have begun to fax the information they have asked for as well. XXXX has faxed and mailed the information now 4 times- they have record of faxing it- and I have now faxed it over to them twice- I also have record of faxing it to them.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way 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 account listed without my expressed written consent.

I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

My account with TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX 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

This is to inform the CFPB, with the respect that the agency, deserve that I am fully aware of the procedures on how the CFPB, helps us as consumers, I am a consumer practicing my legal rights, notice to agent is notice to principal, notice to principle is notice to agent, my understandings are the following, how does CFPB enforce to help consumers when they enforce the law, we or a court may order the defendant to take action to remedy the harm it caused consumers. This can include requiring the person or company to compensate its victims for this harm by providing consumer redress. Obtaining consumer redress is a top priority in any enforcement action or public enforcement actions. When warranted by the investigation, Enforcement may seek authority from the Director to take a public enforcement action. Alternatively, Enforcement may close the investigation without taking public action or refer the matter to the Office of Supervision Examinations to resolve the matter through our supervisory process. If the Director authorizes a public enforcement action, we may bring the action in state or federal court or institute an administrative adjudication proceeding. Administrative adjudication proceedings are formal adversarial proceedings conducted by an administrative law judge, who issues a recommended decision to the Bureaus Director. The Director issues a final decision, either adopting or modifying the administrative law judges recommended decision. When we enforce the law, we or a court may order the defendant to take action to remedy the harm it caused consumers. This can include requiring the person or company to compensate its victims for this harm by providing consumer redress. Obtaining consumer redress is a top priority in any Enforcement action. In addition, we also have obtained a wide range of injunctive relief designed to stop unlawful conduct and prevent future violations. In some instances, relief has included banning individuals and companies from future participation in the marketplace. And just to let the CFPB know with all the respect the agency deserves which I has no intention to promote any unlawful, false, or fraudulent purpose, to promote or conduct an illegitimate object or purpose, or is being requested or submitted in bad faith or for the purpose of harassing or defrauding a person, those companies that I have mentioned on the PDF file linked to this report has violated several times and disregard the noticed send by certified mail. on all companies mentioned on this attachment please address and enforce those violations since I have been disputing those accounts for the past month and for the past three years.
