Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (FL)

I was laid off on XX/XX/2019. I contacted Wells Fargo mortgage and told him that I would be late with the payment. One payment. Then if theres anything I can do about it they brought up a an assistance program where are you can go six months without having to pay if you were laid off. I asked numerous numerous numerous times if this would affect my credit negatively. I stressed this I would not have done this if this would affect my credit. Wells Fargo stated it might. For six months they did not report my credit to the credit bureaus. After I found a job and their assistance program stopped, they reported that I was more than 150 days late on my mortgage. They denied me the right to make payments throughout this time somehow I wouldve gone out and done something sold something done something to make a payment to avoid a bad mark on my credit account but they denied me this right by not reporting it for six months. They stated that they report monthly. For six months they called and asked if I still needed assistance like it was nothing like it was a beautiful day theres no rush no problem no issues with this. I checked my credit report at least 2 to 3  times a week it was never reported. Had they reported it monthly like theyre supposed to I would not of been denied my right to fix this. They have damaged my credit beyond repair. This will be fixed one way or another its their choice.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Unexpected increase in interest rate
Company: U.S. BANCORP (MO)

I own a small business and, our business has been using US Bank Credit Card for over 10 years. Our company has always paid the full balance or the minimum balance required by the credit card terms and conditions. However, our business took a downturn in XX/XX/2016 with unexpected drop revenue and change in the market place. 

We haven't been able to recover thus we have not been able to make the full payments to the credit card. 

Since XX/XX/2016 the US Bank Credit Card started to increase our interest rates from 13 % to 24 % APR. and 29 % APR thus costing us a lot more to make the minimum payment and sequentially our ability to eliminate the debt. Furthermore, they allowed our credit card to go over the {$6000.00} credit limit causing our account to incur additional fees per cycle. 

I spoke with the credit card stating we didn't want our credit to be expanded if we didn't have any additional credit and also to return the {$39.00} fees assessed to our account and Indeed they did. however, they continue to add the fee each and every cycle. 

First, we have paid our credit card for the last 13 years. We should not be penalized our interest rate increased 10 points on the Apr. It's simply unfair and predatory. 

Second, if the credit granted we should not be charged the recurring {$39.00} over the limit fee. In both instances, it not because we are not paying our bill on time it is simply trapped to charge our account additional fees. 

I would like a comparable credit to our account our ability to fairly negotiate the debt so we can move our business forward.

Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score — Other problem getting your report or credit score
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MI)

I am trying to refinance my home since the rates are so low, however, my credit score has disappeared from Experian and XXXX. According to XXXX, it is at XXXX but the other two have shown it as frozen or non-existent. I paid XXXX  have the scores revealed there, but they are at XXXX. The only thing we can think of is that when we let the bank know that my mom passed away on XX/XX/2020, something must have also happened to my credit score by XXXX, as that was when I was unable to get my FICO score in my mortgage app. She helped me create a bank account and establish a credit score when I was 18 under her own account. I've tried everything from creating accounts on the credit bureau websites, unfreezing my score, calling customer service, visiting my bank, etc. but nothing has helped me to find what happened to my score. I am still paying my mortgage, I've always paid my credit cards in full and have no delinquent payments. PLEASE help me find out what happened to my score and how I can get it back. Thank you.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NY)

On ( XX/XX/2023 ) I sent a letter regarding inaccurate Late payments, inaccurate negative accounts, bankruptcies and unknown things on my credit report. To this day over 60 days later I have not received a response yet. feel like i'm being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section 611 ( a ) it is plainly stated that failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those negative items from my credit report as well as correct my late payments as paid on time. It has been over 60 days so they should be corrected promptly. I demand these negative accounts be deleted & correct late payments as paid on time immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the XXXX data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.

We are in the middle of COVID. I was laid off temporarily over the Christmas holiday due to COVID. I called the bank to tell them I would be late on this payment due to circumstances out of my control. They understood and were supposed to work with me on this. I missed XXXX 's payment but returned to work and paid this immediately. There was not supposed to be any negative information put onto my credit report. I just checked my credit and it shows a late for XX/XX/2021. 
This is not fair. I have never been late and the account is back up to paid to where i am scheduled to be paid on time.

I AM XXXX XXXX AND I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT ON BEHALF OF MYSELF. 

I have been disputing incorrect late payments with the bureaus since XX/XX/2020. At that time, I did not receive any responses from the bureaus letting me know the status or if they were even investigating my disputes. So I sent another set of disputes to the bureaus on XX/XX/2020 to request the investigation again, demanding validation of the late payments on both accounts. I do not feel that I was ever a full 30 days late on any of my accounts and my personal records do not indicate this either.

Issue: Shopping for a loan or lease — 
Company: FORD MOTOR CREDIT CO. (ID)

I went into XXXX XXXX of XXXX 3 years ago to buy a car. I told them I did n't want a leased car I did n't need XXXX my credit was exceptional. I am elderly and can not see very well out of XXXX eye and I did not see that the contract was for a leased car and the salesman kept covering up the paperwork. So I tried for 3 years to get out of the contract and I went to another car dealer XXXX XXXX and they said they could get me out the lease and before I knew it they stuck me in another car. They told me that they could n't bring the leased car on their lot and I had to sell it in XXXX 's parking lot in XXXX, Idaho or in my driveway. The salesman said he could sell it in XXXX 's parking or in my driveway and could get me some extra money then he said he would take it back. His name was XXXX and he was a floater ( whatever that means ). Then he said he was bringing people to my house to look at the car and then he later told me the people bought a car at XXXX XXXX instead. Then I found out I was being charged insurance for XXXX cars because they were XXXX in my name. I took the car back to XXXX XXXX in XXXX 2015 and returned it and I did not make the last XXXX payments because they had the car. The car was in excellent shape when I returned the car with XXXX miles on it and now Ford Credit says I owe {$870.00} for repairs to the car mats and damage to the car. I am a XXXX living on a fixed income and was not able to pay it. They started sending me threatening letters and said they would zero out my credit. I feel that I was taken advantage of from the beginning I told them I did not want a leased car. My daughter had to pay the money because they were threatening to put a lien on my house and I have a reverse mortgage and I can not have liens on it or I will loose my house. I am finding out from other elderly people they have been treated the same way by these car dealerships and we have no voice. I have complained to the XXXX and they could n't do anything. I also filled out paperwork and sent it to the Idaho XXXX about XXXX weeks ago and have not received a reply yet. I called them and they did n't seem to care about my situation.
