Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (MN)

For the last few months, I have been making payments of $ XXXX- {$35.00} OVER the minimum payment in order to reduce the cash advance balance, which has a higher interest rate. For example, my minimum payment in XXXX was {$54.00} but I paid {$85.00}. The purchase balance was {$60.00} at 15.99 % and the cash advance balance was {$1900.00} at 20.99 % interest. I did make one purchase  on this card last month in the amount of {$20.00}. I received my new statement today. My purchase balance went down to {$29.00} and my cash advance balance went up to {$1900.00}. I thought that payments made over the minimum balance were required to be credited to the higher interest balance first, but it isn't happening. I contacted Chase last month about the same issue, because I again paid {$27.00} over the minimum payment in XXXX, with XXXX purchase of {$24.00}, yet my purchase balance dropped to {$60.00} and my cash advance balance increased from {$1900.00} to {$1900.00}. They claim that they are applying my payments properly, but I disagree. Isn't it illegal to apply extra payments to the LOWER interest rate balance first?

I am disputing the accuracy of this charged off account ( XXXX  # XXXX ) reporting inaccurately multiple months after an account was closed. Re-aging a charged off account is an illegal act due to FCRA Section 623 ( 5 ) ( A ). This law states : In general. A person who furnishes information to a consumer reporting agency regarding a delinquent account being placed for collection, charged to profit or loss, or subjected to any similar action shall, not later than 90 days after furnishing the information, notify the agency of the date of delinquency on the account, which shall be the month and year of the commencement of the delinquency on the account that immediately preceded the action.

According to the FCDA section 623, This is illegal. Once an account is closed the clause states that it can only reflect charged off or late UP TO the date that the account was closed. Therefore you are reporting Inaccurate information. Not only are you reporting unlawfully and illegally, you are also tarnishing my report that I will be seeking damages for if this problem isnt fixed. The Bureau needs to provide me with copies of all documentation associated with these public record accounts bearing either a court order to place this information on my report or my authorization of release bearing my signature.

By the provisions of the fair credit reporting act, I demand that this item be investigated and REMOVED from my credit report. 
It is to my understanding that you will recheck these items with the creditor who posted these items. Please send me a copy of my credit report XXXX  # XXXX

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION (CO)

My mortgage loan was sold to Fifth Third Bank. Two months after loan was transferred I receive notice that my escrow is almost {$2800.00} overdrawn. I contacted the Bank via phone and was promised a reanalysis. This was supposed to be completed 1 week ago, but I still have not heard anything. My attempts at contacting them by phone and on-line have been rebuffed as they are constantly telling me my info ( loan #, SS # ) is invalid or my registration can not be completed at this time. I have spent several hours on this and am very upset that their automated systems prevent me from talking to anyone!

There is a debt collection listed on my Trans Union credit reporting from a company named XXXX XXXX company with an original creditor named XXXX XXXX. This debt does not belong to me. This debt has never been verified by me. I have no knowlege of this account until reviewing credit report. I submitted an online dispute XX/XX/XXXX and recieved a response immediately XX/XX/XXXX stating that it is accurate. Transunion did not take proper steps to fully investigate. As I was reading the report I noticed inaccuracies listed. There is a past due amount, there is an open date of XX/XX/XXXX but states a last payment was in XX/XX/XXXX, and the status is showing OPEN. These innacuracies are not in compliance with the FCRA. Also collection agencies are suppose to notify me before adding a debt to my credit report and I was never notified by phone or letter of this debt.

They made some called and then asked me to sign on to my account to show me that there was not automatic bill payment setup.. THIS IS NOT TRUE. I came home and logged on and there was no bill payment setup. The change for this payment was not done by me.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (AK)

We were on a cares act COVID19 forebearance. When it came time to go into repayment, XXXX XXXX mistakenly ( purposefully? ) put our loan into foreclosure status and processed a traditional loan modification which should have never been the case, as we were eligible from the beginning for a COVID19 repayment modification which just tacks on the missed payments to the end of the loan. This action significantly negatively impacted my credit report. I was also forced to provide several personal documents to the mortgage company including my bank statements, paychecks, and a complete hardship explanation which I believe is illegal for them to ask for. We repeatedly received threatening statements that we were due to pay the entire balance of the forbearance payments by XXXX which should have NEVER been the case.

I have an Ally bank checking account for years. For years I am been using the popmoney feature to send money to another Ally bank account holder without any issue. All of a sudden I was told by Ally bank that I can not do popmoney transfer unless i contact them. As i am busy - i tried to contact them via chat but i was told that i need to call them. 

I was not told why the hold is in place? 
I choose to send money by check to the sender. 
In the meanwhile - i got an email after few days that my popmoney will happen - what??? 

This is what i sent to them in secured message center message : Guys, Please be serious as you are dealing with real human beings ( customers ) and it 's all about money ( $ $ $ ). I was told that my popmoney transfers are on hold so i made the payment via check. Now after the check is done - i am simply getting an email that the popmoney transactions will be done. Now if you do the popmoney transfer - my account will be negative and it 's a lot of inconvenience. Moreover i can not send an attachment when i am sending secure email. Your customer service folks on chat are totally clue less. I am going to report to CFPB if at all I am getting any more issues. I want all the popmoney future transfer to be stopped and let the check gets cleared and then chatted with their customer service

Experian, Inc and XXXX XXXX XXXX has been sent letters and called numerous times about fraudulent activity that has been listed on my credit report. I have asked for verification paperwork and they will sometimes send stuff and sometimes it's limited.Also they sent paperwork once but could not produce a signature or video or anything to show that I started the accounts. 

The US Government was involved in a big case about my information and a few other people who information was stolen. It included our social security cards, drivers license etc. I even had money come up not going into my accounts due to the fraud situations. They was shopping and everything with my work check. I submitted information to the creditors but they still never investigated the incidents but instead stated it was verified. 

They keep asking for affidavits but if the federal government wasn't able to find the people involved why would I keep doing this. They have violated rules and regulations thereunder, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., and the rules and regulations thereunder, Arkansas General Business Law because they state checks was deposited into my checking account. They are improperly holding me liable for the fraud on an account; failing to delete inaccurate, derogatory information from credit reporting legal obligations and negative reporting. 

I was forced to relocate across the country and was effectively forced out of the mainstream banking system. Because defendants like this and XXXX violated the FCRA and the rules and regulations thereunder, the Arkansas Fair Credit Reporting Act ( Arkansas General Business Law ) ( AR FCRA ), and state common law, by failing to properly reinvestigate my disputes of inaccurate, derogatory information on my report and by misreporting and failing to delete inaccurate information on my report, thus damaging my ability to open a bank account etc.
