XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, California XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing this letter to dispute the inaccuracies and illegalities in my credit report that have caused significant harm to my credit score and financial well-being. Specifically, I am concerned with the actions of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

Firstly, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX late payment on my account XXXX XXXX  XXXX which is completely false. I have never missed a payment on this account and have always paid on time. This violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) has caused undue harm to my credit score and has the potential to impact my future financial opportunities. 

Secondly, XXXX XXXX has reported my account XXXX XXXX XXXX  as charged off, which is also false. I have made several attempts to rectify the situation with the company, but they have refused to acknowledge my payments and have continued to report the account inaccurately. This violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ( FACTA ) has caused significant damage to my credit score and my ability to secure credit in the future. 

Thirdly, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX. has reported my account XXXX XXXX XXXX as being in collection, which is also false. I have never received any communication from them regarding a collection account, and they have not provided me with any proof of such a claim. This violation of the FCRA and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) has caused unnecessary harm to my credit score and my financial reputation. 

Lastly, XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX. XXXX has also reported my account XXXX XXXX XXXX  as being in collection, which is completely unfounded. This violation of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act ( RESPA ) and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ) has caused significant damage to my credit score and my financial stability. 

I request that you investigate these inaccuracies and take appropriate action to rectify the violations of the above-mentioned laws. Please provide me with written confirmation of your findings and the actions taken to rectify these violations. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (VA)

On my credit report, it showed that I missed a payment of {$230.00} in XX/XX/2019 I believe. I later paid the bill when I logged into my XXXX online account and saw that it hadn't been paid yet for that month. XXXX always sent me a monthly bill in the mail reminding me of my monthly bill approaching. But I did not receive a bill in the mail the month of XX/XX/2019. I only later found out when I logged into my online account to check my lease maturity amount later that month. I never missed a payment for this vehicle lease for the entire contract period, and also paid off my lease in full after that. This was the only time I missed a payment, and it was because I never received a bill in the mail like I did every other month reminding me of my upcoming monthly payment.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (AZ)

I have contacted Capital One on several occasions advising this account is fraud. What make me know that this company does not care about consumers is the fact that I have emailed the Ceo 3 times and he has not responded. I have sent him 3 emails and I send another department an email as well stating that I have not had any relationships with this company. I tried to obtain there products and they stated I had previous accounts with them. I have advised them that I have never had a relationship with capital one and I have also provided them with an theft affidavit and again I have still been ignored. I have asked them to removed the fraudulent account and they are still reporting and ignoring me. I feel that they are not empathetic to the fact that I am a victim of identity theft and this is very time consuming or even acknowledge that there is a problem and I have never had any accounts with this company

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (AZ)

I have contacted XXXX on several occasions, I even emailed them also included my theft affidavit and still no response. I have disputed this account with the credit bureaus and still no luck speaking to anyone regarding this fraudulent account. I never had an account with this bank never even heard of this bank. I have requested that this be removed from my credit report. I have done my part and sent letters, contacted the credit bureaus as well as sent the company letters and no one will assist me. I never authorize this account and I want this off. When I checked my account its listed as a deposit account but on my credit its showing as a loan which also lets me know this company is fraud and according to the FCRA this is against the law. I am now forced to take legal action if we can't have this resolved. I have disputed this infomration with the Experian as well letting them know this account is fraud and experian is still reporting fraudulent activity as well as showing this as a tradeline I have never done business with this bank it even shows on the account deposit related so I am sure according to metro 2 compliance the fraudulent account was entered wrong in the system. I want this fraudulent account off my credit report seems to me both of these companies are fraud.

In XXXX, I overpaid Genesis Indigo card. There wasn't anything wrong with my account until after that was done. My balance showed {$44.00} which I paid three different times then, I paid {$73.00} with a representative who told me it was received.

She faxed over my transaction history which they received on XX/XX/XXXX. I've gone back and forth with this company and now I'm being told about a card I've never had in my possession. They reported my account not in good standing. ALL OF THIS BECAUSE THEY WERE OVERPAID!!!!

Consumer complaint received 2018-12-04
Product: Checking or savings account — Savings account
Issue: Closing an account — Company closed your account
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (OR)

1 ) What is this complaint about? 

JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. ( aka Chase ) closed a savings account I had with them 2 days after I opened the account and 1 day after I deposited a check for {$16000.00}. They refused to give me any reason for closing the account. It seemed arbitrary and capricious. It seemed like fraud for them to accept my money on Friday, XX/XX/2018, and close the account the following business day, on Monday, XX/XX/2018. I did receive my money back, but it was three weeks later. The check was dated XX/XX/2018, but it was not mailed until XX/XX/2018, according to the postmark, and I did not receive the check in the mail until XX/XX/2018. 

My complaint is that I do not understand how the government could allow a financial institution to confiscate my money ( even for three weeks ) without due process. 

2 ) What type of problem are you having? 

The problem I am having is that I became homeless because of Chases actions.

3 ) What happened? 

I was going to use the {$16000.00} to move to XXXX, NY. I had given notice at my HUD subsidized building for seniors in XXXX, OR on XX/XX/XXXX and was required to leave by XX/XX/XXXX. I did not receive my funds until XX/XX/XXXX, and then I had to deposit it in another bank where it took another five days to clear. The check cleared the second bank on XX/XX/XXXX. I had asked the building manager where I lived if I could rescind my notice to vacate, since I could not do the move without the funds that Chase denied me access to. I was told the apartment had been offered to someone else, but that I could stay an extra week. Since XXXX is a very busy month for movers, I had to move out on XX/XX/XXXX. I did not have access to my funds until l after I moved out. I can not afford market rate rental in most cities in this country ; I could not do the move without those funds, so I became homeless because of Chases actions not on the street homeless, but without my own apartment. I am sleeping on a sleeping bag on the floor of my sisters home.

I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party.
