Issue: Other transaction problem — 
Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc (NV)

I had an account with Venmo back in XXXX. After an ongoing dispute with Venmo about the {$140.00} transaction that I was not financially responsible for, Venmo failed to deliver any resolution after the case was escalated. Hours days of my time and aggravation. I had no choice but to stop this exhausting process by recovering my funds with a dispute with XXXX. XXXX found that the dispute with Venmo was valid, and the {$140.00} was refunded back to me. On XX/XX/XXXX, Venmo let me open a new account with the same name, same address, my other email, and phone number. After receiving {$930.00}, Venmo froze funds. Their explanation was they needed DL and bank statements. I sent it over eight times. The account was still frozen. Hours and days of not getting the answer and funds. At that point, the sender requested Venmo to send her funds back. Venmo refused her request and forwarded her to the payee- me to issue the refund when they knew they froze the account. They finally emailed that they hold {$930.00} funds because I owe them {$290.00} from my other account from XXXX. I do not own anything as the case was disputed with XXXX rightfully in my favor. Venmo practiced extorting me for {$290.00} ( {$140.00} x2 ) and took {$930.00} until that amount was paid to them. The sender keeps requesting the funds to be returned to her. I've requested Venmo to release funds back to the sender. Venmo refuses to release {$930.00} back to the sender.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: LAKEVIEW LOAN SERVICING, LLC (CA)

In XX/XX/2020 we became eligible for automatic payments on our mortgage. The representative for the lakeview XXXX XXXX told us we could use a credit card on the account for automatic payments. We called back with the credit card account and routing number for them to take and they accepted it. We did not find out until the month after that the payment did not go through. We contacted Lakeview and they said they actually do not accept credit cards for autopay. We paid both months and switched our autopay directly to our checking bank account.

Until we tried to refinance a little over 6 months ago we didn't know that this incident had been negatively reported on our credit. Due to lakeviews employees giving false information, it is their fault we have a negative mark on our credit report. We escalated this problem through lakeview and their team denied taking it off our report without even listening to our recorded phone conversation like we had requested. We then contacted a manager to let them know what their escalation team did, they said they would take care of it and requested us to ask in writing, so we did. We never heard back from their manager. We have since escalated it a second time with a different manager and have once again gotten no word back. We then reported to XXXX what they did and XXXX wasn't able to help us either. 

This is our ONLY negative marking on our credit report and have desperately attempted to resolve the issue in every way we can. We have been extremely mistreated by this company. We need your help please.

Company: Receivable Recovery Services, LLC (MS)

Receivable Recovery Services calls my phone and will either not say nothing ( so I just hang up ) or want me to tell them my personal information before even telling me what the call is about or where they are calling from. I have repeatedly asked them to send me an itemized letter detailing what they are refusing to tell me about and to send it certified to ensure I get it. I have told them not to to contact me until they can prove that I get a letter and yet they still call. I have told them I do not owe them anything and to stop calling me. When I do this, they become aggressive and rude. I refuse to give my personal information to anyone on the phone especially when I know I do not owe this company anything. I can not provide dates or amounts because I have not been given any of that information at all. The only thing I have been told it was a medical debt.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC. (NY)

This is an ongoing problem since XXXX starting with XXXX XXXX then transferred to Navient. XXXX XXXX and Navient are legalized extortionists. The continued issue is misappropriation of funds despite explicit instructions. All stubs with notations as well as check are photographed and saved. XXXX payment was written and mailed XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX payment was in the amount of {$140.00}. {$0.00} was applied which now results in the perpetual cycle of : affecting credit score for missed payment ; compounded interest ; higher principal as not lowered by the prescribed and received payment applied to balance thus increasing the owed amount. In addition, XXXX payment of {$200.00} is noted has {$340.00} paid. Once again Im told a missed payment yet it is a misappropriation of payment. This affects my credit rating and adds undue interest and penalties in an already legalized extortion algorithm that is financially strangling. In addition, time spent trying to correct. Ive called Navient yet again to have them correct their error.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (NY)

I had opened a BarclaysXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card last year. I was approved on XX/XX/2021. 
I only used it once on XX/XX/2021, and had paid my credit charge in full. I gave them my bank account number and routing number and I received a confirmation of the payment. Since then, I stopped using that credit card. Two months later I suddenly see that my credit score dropped XXXX points. I quickly check where I havent paid my debt and all of the sudden see that my Barclays account wasnt paid. I look through all the spam emails I recieve from them and dont see any email saying my payment didnt go through. Only after pressing on the emails it says I have a balance but in reality I paid my balance at full in XXXX. I called them and asked what was wrong, they said I provided the wrong routing number. After checking I saw that I provided them the routing number that I had from my bank, which was a wire routing number and not an ACH one like they wanted. I quickly called my bank and, got the information and payed my debt. I asked the Barclays support why I hadnt receive an email saying my payment didnt go through, they said that it doesnt work like that, you only get an email when your payment is received and later you have to check. So I asked why they didnt notify me through the app like a get a notification when I have a charge of pay my balance. They said it doesnt work like that either. They said they sent me mail saying I didnt pay my balance, but I opted to go paperless and to contact me through email only because I didnt have constant access to my mailbox at the time. Their second excuse was that they tried calling me and I never received a call from them.. They couldve texted me, or sent an email saying my payment hadnt gone through but instead they decided to put me in a position as someone who doesnt pay his debts, even though I have three more credit cards with charges over XXXX XXXX  who are always paid on time and in full. The Barclays agent on the phone said that I was right and if I complain they should reimburse me. She event refunded me the late payment fee of XXXX XXXX This has destroyed my ability to build my credit and would really appreciate any help I can get. Thank you

On XX/XX/year> Equifax received my CFPB complaint about how my information with Equifax should be equivalent to my XXXX credit report, and then in XXXX I received a letter from Equifax stating, " we were unable to locate a credit file in our database with the identification information provided. '' ( the letter will be uploaded to this complaint ) dated XX/XX/year>. When I provided my information to the CFPB, I gave my date of Birth along with the last four of my social security number. So, with all this being said how is it that my credit file can not be located but you all have reported inaccurate credit information to my credit report that I CAN SEE ( which I will also attach to this complaint )? So now everything is contradicting everything. How are you all reporting information if you all can't locate a credit file associated with my date of birth and my social security number? Make it make sense?
