This credit card has a higher annual fee ( {$95.00} ) and additional benefits, such as a annual free night certificate for rooms up to XXXX points ( instead of the XXXX points offer on the {$85.00} annual fee credit card ) on the account anniversary.

I contracted Chase, however they are unwilling to correct this.

Company: COAST PROFESSIONAL INC (CA)

I sent a request in for a hearing ( on XX/XX/XXXX ) in a timely manner but the Department of Education never gave me a date for my hearing. In early XX/XX/XXXX I noticed that my student loans were in default, of course I wonder how since I hadn't even had my hearing. I decided to contact the Department of Education to let them know that I never received a letter regarding a date for my hearing and I was informed that I needed to contact the collection agency which was Coast Professional, Inc. I contacted Coast Professional, Inc. regarding the matter and they directed me back to the Dept. of Education. Again I called the Dept. of Education and they redirected me back to the collection agency. This time when I called the collection agency back, I asked to speak with a supervisor. A supervisor at the collection agency, pulled my file and confirmed that the Dept. of Education did receive my request for hearing in a timely manner but he's not sure why they never gave me a date for my hearing. The supervisor at the collection agency informed me that there was nothing they could do that I'd have to take it up with the Dept. of Education. I'm looking to consolidate my student loans and get out of default, which I shouldn't be in in the first place, and obtain a payment that I can afford. I've recently just found out about this site this is why I'm just now submitting my complaint.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (TX)

I am writing to file a formal complaint against CAPITAL ONE, a collection agency, for multiple violations of my consumer rights as outlined in the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 's ( CFPB ) regulations. 
CAPITAL ONE, with contact information at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, UT XXXX, and phone number, ( XXXX ) XXXX, has failed to provide validation information as required by 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ) while reporting a collection account on my consumer report. This action directly violates my rights under the FDCPA and CFPB regulations.

Furthermore, I have not been given the opportunity to dispute the account in question, as mandated by 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( i ). This failure to provide a fair and transparent dispute process is a clear violation of my consumer rights.

In addition, I believe that CAPITAL ONE has engaged in false, misleading, and deceptive practices in their collection efforts, further violating my rights under the FDCPA. Their actions are in direct contravention of 15 USC 1681s-2 ( 7 ) ( A ) and 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ), which prohibit the furnishing of information to consumer reporting agencies without the required disclosures.

I kindly request that the CFPB investigate these violations and take appropriate action against CAPITAL ONE to ensure that my consumer rights are protected. I also urge the CFPB to take all necessary measures to hold CAPITAL ONE accountable for their unlawful conduct.

Enclosed with this letter are copies of relevant documents supporting my complaint. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to a resolution that upholds the laws designed to protect consumers.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (NJ)

Per my previous case XXXX XXXX. The creditor stated that this account was last reported on XX/XX/XXXX. That statement is incorrect all three Consumer Credit reporting agencies are currently reporting this account, with different statuses and balance updates for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. So the letter that was submitted to CFPB in XX/XX/XXXX was fraudulent with regards to how the creditor was reporting this account. 
In XX/XX/XXXX, a 1099-C was issued to this account. A 1099-C is considered income per the IRS and will need to be filed as income for my taxes. 
Income is not reported as credit to the consumer credit reporting agencies. Also the creditor sold my information to a third-party debt collector that debt collector was demanding payment for more than double the amount originally owed this situation was resolved in my previous case mention above. 
Also stated in the letter by the creditor that any payment you choose to send is voluntary and or nonrefundable. There are no payments due to the creditor due to the 1099-C this creditor has already received credit per the IRS for this account.

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.
