Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: Synovus Bank (PA)

I called first progress credit card to let them know they were taking fees out even though my card was being paid, which I have legal documentation that all the money was coming out and being paid to them. they kept tacking on charges the entire time they told me they could only remove one charge even though I paid the card multiple times. Then they tax on a late fee after my card was already paid in the full balance of {$100.00} they have been stealing money from me the entire time Ive been paying my card. then he proceeded to tell me that I owed a balance, and that he would not be returning it. This is the worst way to start your credit out because theyre stealing from individuals.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (WV)

I got a free copy of my credit report from XXXX XXXXXXXX  report, and theres are XXXX requests for credit that I never applied for or gave permission for and I don't understand how or why they are on my credit report. My fear is this could be a sign of attempted identity theft, I have done fraud report on the FTC website and identity theft reports on the goverment website. I am also putting fraud alerts on my credit and I have signed up for credit monitoring service so I can make sure to be notified if this happens again. I have done research and I've found this under The Fair Credit Reporting Act law. ( 15 U.S. Code 1681c2 a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than XXXX business days after the date of receipt ). That is what I'm doing, I'm requesting to have all these fraudelent credit inquiries removed from my credit report. As I said I didn't apply for anything, sign anything or give anyone permission to look at my credit for any reason whatsoever so these inquiries are unauthorized. I called Trans Union Credit Bureau and explained everything to them. They told me I had to contact the companies that did the credit inquiry to have it removed. So I did what they said, I called the phone numbers listed with the inquiry and explained to them that I wanted them to remove their unauthorized credit inquiry from Trans Union. They all gave me basically the same exact response, we can't remove the inquiry you have to call Trans Union, only Trans Union can remove the inquiry. So I then called Trans Union again and told them what the companies said, and they refused to help me. So I did more research and found that I could file a complaint with CFPB over companies not following the law, and have the CFPB contact Trans Union and have them remove these fraudelent credit inquiries. I don't want to get anyone in trouble, I just want them to stop violating my rights under Fair Credit Reporting Act law.

XXXX XXXX  acquired my mortgage from XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX. When the loan was acquired the payment for XX/XX/XXXX was not credited to my account. The escalation manager told me that if I could provide a bank statement to show the payments were made, he would credit the account and remove the late fees. On XX/XX/XXXX, I provided bank statements to the XXXX XXXX  escalation department via email that showed a payment each month to XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX the late fees were removed from the account. I applied for a mortgage refinance on XX/XX/XXXX because my 2nd mortgage is scheduled to close out XX/XX/XXXX. The refinance was denied because my credit report showed I have 30 months of late mortgage payments. Around XX/XX/XXXX I informed XXXX of the issue and they sent me a letter that stated the payment for XX/XX/XXXX was missing. I told them that I submitted my bank statement as proof that the payment was made and the late fees were waived. I was then informed that I need to submit a copy of the credit reports to them. So on XX/XX/XXXX I submitted a copy of my credit reports to the customer care email. Approximately a week later they uploaded my payment history to Experian but did not correct the late payment status. I was again denied a refinance loan by XXXX XXXX  and another lender because of the late payment status. XX/XX/XXXX I spoke to a credit manager at XXXX and was told I had to fax my bank statements to them, so I faxed them my bank statements that day. I followed up with a phone call a week later and XXXX would not discuss the status over the phone. I had to call them once I received their decision letter. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter dated XXXX that stated the payment for XX/XX/XXXX was missing. I called XX/XX/XXXX and spoke to an escalation manager and was told I had to resubmit my bank statement and highlight all the payments. I informed her of the history and emailed the bank statement with the highlights she requested. I was informed it will take XXXX business days for a resolution. Mean while XXXX who can see my history will not approve me for a refinance, despite knowing the issue and the fact that I am current with payments for both mortgages. The main mortgage is showing current since XX/XX/XXXX which doesn't make sense. I'm currently trying to refinance with a credit union. Praying they will approve everything.

Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: Radius Global Solutions LLC (FL)

I reached a settlement with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX on an XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) ending XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account reference # XXXX. 

The settlement was being paid on timely manner and Collections agent, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, did not honor and worse kept additional funds not properly adjusted form balances and agreement. 

According to settlement agreement payments where to be received in a timely manner which they were sent and post marked correctly. Nowhere in the settlement letter it states that funds had to clear by the date provided but sent in timely manner which they did revive as such and deposited. 

This collector is in violation of FDCPA by collecting and already provided and being paid for agreement and also not accounting for all funds. 

I have provided settlement documentation and payments effected which clearly reflect that I had until XX/XX/XXXX to complete settlement and the collector simply voided settlement without regards for my compliance and payments effected in timely manner
