Issue: Fees or interest — Charged too much interest
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (CA)

My Capital One XXXX card 's statement closed on XX/XX/2022 in the amount of XXXX was due on XX/XX/XXXX. 
They charged an interest fee of {$25.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. 
I paid XXXX days late : {$1300.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. 
They also assessed {$35.00} in interest fees on XX/XX/XXXX. 

Next statement closed on XX/XX/2022 in the amount of XXXX ( includes late charge fee as well as the interest fee mentioned above ). 
I made the full payment amount on XX/XX/XXXX. 

They charged me another {$20.00} in interest charges on XX/XX/XXXX, even though I had paid my statement in full. 

I called and complained about it, they told me there was nothing they could do and that they would charge interest for XXXX months. I then asked to close my account, and I had XXXX in outstanding balance. When they gave me my quote, they said I had to pay {$1600.00} to close out my account. This means they are charging me interest again this month. 

How is it possible that they made over {$60.00} in interest charges because someone was XXXX days late for a less than $ XXXX outstanding balance? These are predatory charges. I pay $ XXXX in interest charges on my mortgage which is close to XXXX in principal. Of course I get it that those are XXXX different financial products, but this should be illegal, especially because I did pay for my balance in full.

AFTER A THOROUGH REVIEW OF MY CONSUMER REPORT, I HAVE IDENTIFIED SOME ERRORS AND WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT BECAUSE I REALIZE THAT MY CONSUMER RIGHTS HAVE BEEN VIOLATED. ACCORDING TO THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT. 15 USC 1681 ( a ), defines the Rules of Construction ( 2 ) ( a ) ( i ) states the term consumer report does not include any report containing information solely as to transactions or experience between the consumer and the person making the report. Late payments are a form of transaction and utilization is an experience created by credit usage.

Experian is reporting late payments on accounts listed as : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  This experience has been created as a late payment on in the month of XX/XX/2023. 
This information has been sold to a 3rd party and applied to my account without permission. 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) states any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no term in accordance with the consumer to whom it relates. 
I have never provided XXXX, XXXX or written instructions to report anything to my consumer report, not to mention the late payments/utilizations. According to 15 USC 1681 602 congressional findings and statement of purpose states, There is a need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers rights to privacy. This also states the banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Items run which are reported inaccurately appear on the credit report directly impair the efficiency of the banking system and contribute to unfair credit reporting methods. Inaccurate reporting undermines public confidence which is essential to continue the fair and lawful functions of the banking system. The inaccurate reporting of these late payments and my privacy right have been violated due to XXXX. My Consumer rights have also been violated by allowing late payments/utilization to report on my consumer report. I have previously informed your company to remove this information. With this notice, I am requesting this information to be updated accurately on my consumer report, late payment and utilization reported on my credit accounts.

It has been more than 60 days since I sent a letter outlining inaccuracies and unknown entries on my credit report, but I have yet to receive a response. This lack of action and communication is unacceptable, as it feels like I am being taken advantage of and ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), a failure to investigate such items within 30 days warrants immediate removal from my credit report. As it has now been well beyond that timeframe, these accounts must be deleted without delay. Failure to comply will result in legal action due to the undue stress caused by this situation. Moreover, my personal information was compromised in the XXXX data breach, which makes it all the more imperative that this situation is resolved quickly and effectively.

Relevant dates : XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX Dispute Nature : Falsely reporting late/missed payments for my mortgage payments Offender : XXXX XXXX XXXX  I am a US Veteran and took out a VA Mortgage through XXXX XXXX back in XXXX and have always paid on time and in full without fail. ( in fact I overpay and pay early to lower my interest payments ). 

In XX/XX/XXXX I went abroad to XXXX to get my XXXX with my GI Bill and did not have access to my US address or US phone number. I notified all my banks ( including XXXX XXXX ) and they assured me it wasn't a problem and that they could reach me via email. 

In XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX stopped crediting my account because of escrow readjustments even though they were accepting my payments. They never notified me ( via email, as promised ) and instead held the money in their accounts earning interest at my expense. On top of that, they had the audacity to charge me late payments of {$430.00} despite holding onto my payments and also falsely reported my payments as missed/late to credit reporting agencies ( TransUnion, XXXX, XXXX, etc ) causing my credit score to plummet by over 400 points. 

It wasn't until XXXX of XXXX where they threatened to foreclose my house and seize it did they bother to contact me ( via email, as promised ). At that point I had to choice but to immediately pay the fines and bring my account back to good standing. 

After everything was settled, I called XXXX XXXX and the credit reporting agencies to dispute my credit score and XXXX XXXX refused to cooperate and my credit history lies in ruin and they also refuse to reimburse me for the fraudulently charged late fees. 

I am asking for your help in helping me fix this and restore my credit history back to its former good standing. Thank you. 

If need be, I have all my banks statements annotated and highlighted attesting to the validity of my claims, for your convenience.
