Company: Allied Data Corporation (DC)

I purchased some items XXXX before losing my job for {$150.00} school uniform pants for my daughter with my XXXX credit card. 

Items were never received and shipped to an old address that I have not lived in since 2013 I initiated contact and requested refund which I felt was a legimate request they issued an investigation and offered a gift card which I never wanted I wanted my refund back on my card. 

Also being off work since XXXX - my health played an issue and I submitted documents and was told that I did not qualify for help to pay my credit card. 

I paid for a service regularly and was told now that I am in need I did not qualify These practices put in play are fraudulent to take my monthly payment and when I am in need I dont qualify but no one gets to return to all the money I paid for the service. 

I want a refund back on my card I never got gift card and never wanted it I want a refund of all money put into for service that was suppose to help me in my time of need and out of work. These services should be illegal they take the money but dont help the consumer

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (GA)

XXXX continues to report incorrect credit information negatively impacting my ability to obtain credit, rent an apartment, or buy a home. XXXX indicates they rely upon XXXX XXXX and XXXX  Credit reports to verify the information they are reporting. XXXX XXXX previously responded, in writing, that the following accounts are not on my XXXX XXXX Account and not being reported. XXXX : # XXXX, XXXX : # XXXX, XXXX : # XXXX, XXXX # XXXX, XXXX : # XXXX. I previously attached ( 5 ) XXXX provided by XXXX and XXXX ( Cancellation of Debt ). Both XXXX and XXXX admitted knowledge of my insolvency at the time of their wrongfull claim. Further, both XXXX and XXXX were aware that I had been a victim of a Privacy Breach from the Office of Personnel Management Privacy Breach and that my personal and financial information was being circulated on the dark web. Second XXXX XXXX continues to report as accurate a Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy Filing from XX/XX/2011 that was dismissed without a discharge. The exception to the rule which XXXX XXXX is in violation relates to the removal of Bankruptcy Filings not subject to a discharge. As a result, XXXX XXXX is also misreporting thre is an " Individual Debt '' responsibility, where there is not, otherwise XXXX XXXX would have reported the amount of the the debt. 

Both XXXX and Equifax have complied with the request to remove the wrongful reporting, but XXXX XXXX does not. This appears to be a pattern for XXXX XXXX as they are [ 5 ] Negative Accounts on my report and [ 1 ] Negative Public Record. Based on the information provided, none of the credit bureaus, XXXX, XXXX nor XXXX XXXX/XXXX have a legal right to continue misreporting this information. 

XXXX and XXXX abandoned all claims and cancelled all the debt, as such they are not party to any claim, nor can they report something that is no longer theirs. Yet the reporting persisits. XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Equifax, perhaps all are working in concert to deliberately suppress my credit score by reporting false information. 

My credit report speaks for itself if you will look beyond the issues I have raised. Nonetheless, even with these accounts listed my stats : *99 % On-Time Payments.

*26 year old credit history line.

*30 % Credit Used. 
*No Recent inquries. 
*Even though I am handicapped due to your scoring for recent accounts, none have ever been late. 

I can easily demonstrate damages here. I am ready to buy a home, but I can not do so with this errant reporting on my credit reports.

CEASE AND DESIST I, XXXX XXXX, consumer, and natural person, am aware of all rights I have, and which are protected by The Congress under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Your company has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) ( 4 ) ( b ). As a reporting agency that has assumed the role of assembling and reporting information on consumers such as myself, the FCRA requires that it is done so in a manner that is fair and equitable. Your company illegally reported private information and sold it to other reporting agencies, including Experian, XXXX, and XXXX. I did not grant your company permissible purpose to report it, and I have not been notified that this information is being provided to the highest bidders. The alleged debt was during a time in my life of struggle, medical issues, and mental anguish. I have since sustained further emotional and psychological damages because of your company 's unfair and deceptive practices. I am currently rebuilding my life, but your companys willful disregard of my privacy and its reporting has damaged my character and is hindering my ability to provide for my family. As the consumer and natural person, I am invoking specified remedy and make the following demands : - Cease and desist reporting Account ( Acct # ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Inquired XXXX XX/XX/XXXX to your consumer reporting agency.

- Remove reporting from all consumer reporting agencies.

- Provide acknowledgment of this official notification that I am opting out of your reporting.

Do not report ANY information bearing my identification.

Ignoring this Cease and Desist will be evidence that the infringements were willing, deceptive, and in violation of the FCRA.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (MN)

I was on a flight back from XXXX. They were advertising the XXXX XXXX credit card on the flight. Saying to sign up and received enough bonus points for another trip. They told me each leg of the trip was XXXX miles and the card would give me a bonus of XXXX miles- enough for my wife and I to return. I signed up for the card, paid the {$95.00} and received the bonus miles. In attempt to redeem them- I find that XXXX miles for each leg is not a reasonable flight. XXXX miles gets you a flight to another city where you have to stay overnight, then fly out the next day to final destination. If I want a reasonable flight then I was told the cost would be a total of XXXX miles plus {$170.00} in tax. The option to purchase the additional XXXX miles was {$2500.00} + {$190.00} in tax + {$30.00} processing charge. This is misleading and overcharging. To book these same flights on a cash basis ( using no miles ) costs less that {$1000.00} for two people to travel. This company has misled me, forced me to pay a {$95.00} annual fee, and pulled my credit.

The account wasn't reopened and was closed on XX/XX/XXXX citing " violation of cardholder agreement '' however, there was no violation. 

I submitted a complain via CFPB about improper actions by XXXX XXXX requesting account to be reopened. The response was that I needed additional piece of information ( my social security card ) which I faxed again. The account wasn't reopened and customer representative couldn't cite the reason for it. The answer is same " unverified information '' however the bank can't say what information is needed. 

The bank refuses to honor cardholder agreement and refuses to explain their actions.
