Consumer complaint received 2018-03-20
Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit
Company: PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES INC (OK)

Attorneys XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, in behalf of PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES, made a false statement that I had been properly notified about a court action regarding a debt they claimed I owed. ( It stemmed from a XXXX XXXX for my granddaughter, XXXX XXXX ; they claimed that I co-signed. I did not. ) They said I had been properly served. I had not. Since I had not been notified, I did not appear in my own defense, so thy won a judgment. ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and placed a lien on my property without my knowledge. They did not notify me in any manner. I did not fin out about it until I applied for a property loan in XX/XX/XXXX. Part of the troublesome path I have been through is that PORTFOLIO and two law firms : XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX who represented PORTFOLIO at various times stall and waste time blaming each other. I first filed this complaint against XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX because your question asks who notified me of this debt. They responded to you acknowledging my situation but said it was the fault of XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. So I filed against XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. They responded to you acknowledging my situation but said it was the fault of PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES. So I am now filing a complaint against PORTFOLIO. 
I got a lawyerin XX/XX/XXXX, who won for me ( Order Vacating, Voiding, and Holding for Naught Judgement Lien that has been filed with Registrar of Deeds. Also a judgement for lawyers fees. I can not afford to purue collection. Now a lawyer tells me there is a two/three year statute of limitations to sue them. I can't collect the judgement because the cost is prohibitive. 
XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX won in court without proper serving. ( They said I had been served by leaving information with my granddaughter, XXXX XXXX, at her house in which I had never lived. 
They filed a lien for {$7100.00}. The Court has awarded me {$1900.00} by order of XXXX County judge, XXXX XXXX. I have suffered other financial damages because of being denied a loan from my bank. I have suffered other damage because of the time and stress in trying to deal with this series of events. I have documentation for all these activities, but I do not know how to attach them It is all on hard copy because my computer blew and the electronic file went with it! The company ( at least their lawyers ) has received all the material either from me or my lawyer. I have 43 pages of documentation, if the company wants to see any of it, I can mail hard copies to them..

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (TX)

I overpaid XXXX XXXX XXXX {$4500.00} by making duplicate payments on my credit card balance in XX/XX/XXXX and I'm having difficulty getting my money back from them. On XX/XX/XXXX, per my statements, Capital One supposedly issued me a credit balance refund in the above amount. I was very patient but after never receiving the check several weeks later, I called customer service. They reviewed my account and confirmed the check had not been cashed. They told me another check would be issued and mailed to me at my confirmed mailing address. I waited 2 more weeks and called back on XX/XX/XXXX. I was told it took them 15 working days (!!! ) to send me the reissued check. When I pressed them as to whether they had actually mailed it, I was told I should have it in my mail by Monday XX/XX/XXXX. It did not arrive and still has not arrived. Each time I call them it takes 30 minutes of my valuable time. I want to close my account and not do business with them, but I'm afraid to until I get my refund..

Once you call back, they will identify themselves to discuss a debt, but will not answer your questions. I tried contacting them at XXXX and the representatives are just as rude. Their immediate response was they have not call my number since XX/XX/XXXX. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY!!! This company is relentless!

I am submitting this CFPB Complaint regarding fraudulent items on my credit report. I have recently discovered several items on my credit report that I did not authorize or participate in. These items are damaging my credit score and causing significant financial harm. I have taken steps to dispute these fraudulent items with the credit reporting agencies and the creditors in question, but have not received a satisfactory resolution.
