Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (TX)

XX/XX/2022 was the payment due date for my Capital One credit card account statement ending XX/XX/2022. Prior to XX/XX/XXXX, I sent three separate payments to Capital One which arrived on XX/XX/XXXX. These were sent via a bill pay service. As these payments did not fully cover the statement balance, I intended to use the Capital One website or mobile app to initiate payments from my bank account on XX/XX/XXXX to cover that remaining statement balance amount. When I went to do this, the Capital One app declined to process my payment, saying that I could only schedule at most three payments at a time. I received no prior notice of this restriction. I called Capital One and spoke to XXXX  based XXXX or XXXX with ID number XXXX. I requested to make a phone payment from my bank account that would have covered the remaining statement balance. This request was declined by this agent, citing his system restrictions that I described prior. I indicated that I would make the payments as soon as the system allowed me to do so and requested that no interest be charged for this delay that was caused through no fault of my own. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, the Capital One app allowed me to make these payments from my bank account and I made sufficient payments to cover the statement balance.

Capital One charged me interest of {$22.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I paid the subsequent statement in full by the payment due date. Capital One then charged me interest of {$10.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. 

The key difference I have noticed with how Capital One processes payments compared to other banks is the following : Capital One deems all received payments as scheduled payments on the date they are received. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX  ( all of whom I have accounts with ), only deem payments initiated from their websites or apps as scheduled payments on the date they are initiated. They do not deem XXXX XXXX service or phone payments or branch payments as scheduled payments. As a result, these banks will accept payments from customers on the due date. There may be limitations on a customer 's ability to make a payment via the app or website, but some method exists for making a payment to these banks. This is not the case with Capital One as described and so the bizarre outcome can arise where a customer has the means and willingness to settle a debt with the bank, the bank declines to settle that debt and then charges the customer interest for not settling that debt. This situation should simply not arise.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Old information reappears or never goes away
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (CA)

This account was erroneously placed in a 3rd party collection. The debt originated with XXXX XXXX XXXX  for {$1200.00} ( I will attach the original invoice ). I am attaching proof this account was paid in full to the original creditor on the date on the XXXX receipt which was XX/XX/2023. This account was paid IN FULL before it was ever sent to collections to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have written the creditor twice and they responded that the debt is " verified '' and owed by me ( I am also attaching ) and the amount they claim I owed originally on my credit report 7 months ago, matches what I paid to XXXX XXXX XXXX/what is on my XXXX receipt ( who I purchased the money orders from ). After writing XXXX XXXX and disputing for months with the XXXX credit bureaus XXXX, Equifax and XXXX, the account was removed from XXXX due to its inaccuracy. The amount owed under this account has changed from {$1800.00} to now {$650.00}. This amount was inflated from the alleged start with XXXX XXXX XXXX. How has the amount owed even decreased from {$1800.00} 6 months ago to {$650.00} now when XXXX activity has been made under this account with this creditor. This error proves the company to be fraudulent and in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
