Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (AZ)

This is my attempt to get this matter resolved. I've submitted my previous letter to 3 credit bureaus. I have no clue what in the world the credit bureaus trying to accomplish by ignoring my request but it's just creating additional emotional & physical distress. The credit bureaus has failed to comply with Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). I disputed information was reporting to my credit file held with by them.

These items were opened fraudulently. I informed them of the issue & provided them with the required documents to remove the items via FCRA Section 605b. They have failed to delete the items, additionally they have failed to provide me with any legal contract to reflect I was the one who opened the accounts. I need the following items be removed from my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX, AZ XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Original Creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Balance Owed : {$5500.00} ; XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX AZ XXXX.

Issue: Closing your account — Can't close your account
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (IN)

I am the primary cardholder on an American Express Business Gold card ending in XXXX. My complaint relates to an account closure and annual fee request that has not been honored by American Express. 

On XX/XX/year>, I requested that this account be closed and the full annual fee of {$370.00} charged earlier in the statement cycle would be refunded. I received confirmation from an American Express chat agent that the account would be closed, and because the request was made within 30 days of the fee charge, the fee would be refunded within XXXX days. Surprisingly, on XX/XX/year>, I checked my account and saw that the fee had not in fact been refunded. I initiated another chat session and received an apology from the chat agent, who assured me that the refund of {$370.00} was being escalated and would be honored as promised. Transcripts of both chat sessions are attached. 

I gave the agent the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, that decision was not rewarded as I discovered that today, XX/XX/year>, the fee refund has still not been issued. This is an unacceptable experience and I require that it be timely corrected.

Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (GA)

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding my experience with Ashley Furniture XXXX and the associated credit line I opened at the time of my purchase in XX/XX/year>. 

At the time of the purchase, I also opened a line of credit to cover part of my balance. However, I was not informed that there would be a XXXX XXXX interest rate if the balance was not paid off within XXXX year. This crucial detail only came to my attention after a year of making payments, when I noticed a significant increase in the amount owed. 

Upon discovering this, I immediately contacted both Ashley Furniture XXXX and the credit line company. Unfortunately, I was told that since a year had already passed, nothing could be done to rectify the situation. Despite feeling misled, I decided to continue making the payments. 

Recently, I reviewed my account and was dismayed to find that the amount owed continues to increase due to the XXXX XXXX interest rate being applied monthly. I believe I have been taken advantage of, as this high interest rate was not disclosed to me at the time of purchase. My attempts to resolve this issue by speaking with management have been futile, leaving me in a position where I am paying more in interest than on the actual balance. 

This situation is unjust, and I feel that proper disclosure of the interest rate terms should have been provided at the time of the credit line agreement. I am seeking assistance from your agency to address and rectify this matter. 

Thank you for your attention to my complaint.
