Hard Inquiries : CAPITAL ONE Inquiry : XXXX XXXX, XXXX Institution Information : CAPITAL ONE XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, VA XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX I contacted Capital One in XX/XX/XXXX regarding this inquiry following an alert via XXXX XXXX of a new inquiry made against my credit report ( s ). I contacted Capital One with the details provided by XXXX XXXX, the representative I spoke with identified that an application had been submitted using my SS #, but had been declined without a documented reason. I inquired about whether the application was submitted online, via phone or in person, as well as the provided address given during the application process without any information being able to be provided by the representative since the application was declined. I asked that this inquiry be removed, as I never submitted any application for a Captial One product in XX/XX/XXXX or prior, and that I was living abroad at the time of the application and contacting Capital One. As I understood this would be removed by Captial One across all 3 Credit Bureau. This inquiry is still showing as a HARD INQUIRY on my report.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MT)

I wanted to lift a credit freeze I have on my account and the phone number they have is not by current phone number. I called their customer services # and at the direction of their attendant went through their on-line self-help 2 times and was not able to get them my right number. The third time I called I kept asking to speak to a representative which I believe could have resolved this very quickly, their system would not allow me to speak to a representative at all and finally hung up on me. There does not seem to be any recourse to solve any problems with them unless you want to send them letter and mail it through the postal service. I did not see any email address for customer service.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (FL)

I disputed 2 transactions so far with Capital one and it is unclear to me how exactly their dispute process work. In both instances, Ive been unsuccessful because apparently, I submitted the wrong documents, which Im still unclear what it was they were asking exactly. 
This complaint is regarding an XXXX booking where I only stayed for 6 hours and left because the place wasnt as described. The dispute process was started on XX/XX/2022 for the amount of XXXX. The original transaction was in the amount of {$610.00} however, I only received a partial refund from XXXX. I submitted all the required documents, as well as my exchanges with XXXX. According to the last agent ( a supervisor ) I spoke with about this case, I did not submit the proper receipt for my stay, which was an emailed receipt I received after booking the place. I was told that receipt wasnt accepted, and it was one of the reasons the case was dismissed. 

Prior to me speaking with this supervisor, I spent a couple of hours with another agent on XX/XX/2022 who took the time to actually look into the dispute. Once the agent learned that I only stayed at the XXXX for XXXX hours, she asked me to write a statement stating just that, because they have a policy where if I stayed for a full day, then my case would automatically be dismissed. As these calls are recorded, Im sure a recording of both conversations is available. I was expecting to win the case after submitting the statement as she had already reviewed all the previously submitted documents and everything seemed fine. To my surprise, I received a letter less than an hour after submitting stating that my case was dismissed because I did not submit the required documentation. 

There obviously is a disconnect within Capital Ones dispute department because I do not understand their process from asking me to submit a piece of documentation that is supposed help me win this case, to the said case being dismissed just an hour after submitting the requested documentation. My reason for submitting this complaint is just so that Capital One can enlighten me as to what exactly I missed and to also keep them honest because it looks to me that that they do not actually investigate any of the disputes I submit to them.

To XXXX, XXXX, Transunion : I am writing to you because I am concerned about the accuracy and honesty of your company 's data. According to FCRA section 611, it is important that we have accurate records on file with those who rely on them most- including not just customers, but also potential lenders or employers. After doing some research into Metro 2 compliance standards, I have found that there may be some inaccuracies in reporting going forward if these issues are not promptly resolved. I would love any feedback possible before taking action against you later down this road together. The inaccuracies that are currently on my report are having a serious negative impact on my quality of life. The data on my credit report is of high importance and is currently not a representation of who I am financially because it is inaccurate. I am demanding accurate documentation so you can document me- the person who deserves status in society- correctly. Please make sure that all inaccuracies are removed immediately and that I am furnished with a new credit report upon the completion of your investigations into the details of my credit records.

This is an error that you need to look into, so please do your investigation on this and remove or delete this account from my credit report.

Dear CFPB. I am writing to file a complaint against TransUnion. TransUnion is reporting several accounts on my credit report that I have disputed as inaccurate. 
I reached out to TransUnion on XX/XX/23 asking for a method of verification to be provided to me for the disputed accounts within 15 days, by law. I did not receive a response after 15 days. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the credit reporting agency is required to give me a method of verification within 15 days of my request. If this is not provided, the agency is obligated to remove the disputed records. I am exercising my rights by law and now asking for these accounts to be deleted immediately. 

This letter is formal notice that TransUnion has failed to respond to my request to provide the method of verification for disputed accounts on my credit report. They have failed to respond to my XX/XX/23 letter asking that they show verification of proof for these disputed accounts. I have enclosed a copy of my letter sent on XX/XX/23. I am also including a copy of the XXXX tracking showing a delivery receipt on XX/XX/23 to TransUnion. I am maintaining detailed records of all my correspondence with them. 

I am also including a copy of my letter sent to TransUnion on XX/XX/23 and tracking asking that these accounts be deleted due to TransUnion not providing the method of verification within 15 days from my initial letter. As they have failed to do so, I am demanding that they remove the below six accounts from my credit report with TransUnion bearing my social security number. The six accounts are XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
