Complaint:
I was taken advantage of due to malpractice while several laws were being broken under the FCRA by your company. This has caused me financial injury, defamation of character, I can not obtain a job, can not apply for credit, and can not obtain a SBA loan due to the pandemic. Under this crisis, you have hurt my ability to use my credit.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (GA)

Complaint:
I have had issues with this company since the card was opened. When I submitted my payment the first time back in XX/XX/XXXX, the company held my payment and then stated that the information for my account was incorrect and came back as insufficient funds and they charged me a fee for the transaction. I submitted the payment again and the same thing happened. I called the company and gave them the same bank information that Id been using and they didnt have any issues processing the payment. I attempted to submit a payment again in XX/XX/XXXX and the same thing occurred. They said that the account information was incorrect and that it came back as insufficient funds and I was charged a late fee. Called the company again and didnt have any issues processing the payment with the same information I was using online. I pulled my credit report to see how things were reporting with this account and saw that they had closed the account. I called to inquire why my account had been closed and was told that it was because of my payments being returned. I was told that after 3 successful payment submissions that the account would be reopened. I called to submit my payment in XX/XX/XXXX and was told by a customer representative to submit it online. The same issue happened. I ended up having to call back. Same thing occurred for XX/XX/XXXXand ended up submitting two payments through a representative. I was informed that because I submitted two payments for both XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, that my next payment wasnt due until XX/XX/XXXX. I submitted a payment at the beginning of XXXX online. I woke up today to see that the closed account is reading 30 days past due. I am furious about this as this has dropped my score significantly and I am currently in the process of buying a home and will not qualify now. I was specifically told by a customer representative that the next payment was due in XX/XX/XXXX so my credit report should not read 30 days past due. I am prepared to pursue legal action with this company if this situation is not rectified.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CO)

Complaint:
Hello! 

I'm trying to resolve a set of disputed charges on my Citi card. On XX/XX/XXXX, a set of fraudulent charges from XXXX appeared on my statement. I've attached a list of the related transactions. The sum of charges and refunds adds up to {$150.00}, not {$0.00} as it should. 

Citi noticed the suspicious activity, called me to confirm I didn't purchase anything from XXXX, then credited my account with three security credits matching the original charges. 

Simultaneously, XXXX issued partial refunds of {$200.00} and {$200.00} to my account. On XX/XX/XXXX, Citi concluded the investigation and attempted to reverse the XXXX refunds, leaving the SECURITY CREDIT ones. Unfortunately, the refunds were for {$350.00} and {$230.00}, which didn't match the original XXXX credits issued to my account. 

After the full set of charges and chargebacks, I'm still owed {$150.00}. 

I've tried getting in touch with Citi repeatedly since XXXX. I've made a half dozen phone calls to their fraud department and used the online chat to try and resolve things. I still don't have the refund I'm owed. 

Couple other notes. It's been hard to track down the transactions since Citi migrated transaction history to the new card number and purged the old one from the web dashboard I can see. Also, all of the transactions were dated to XX/XX/XXXX, but the security credits posted on XX/XX/XXXX, and the final XXXX charges posted on XX/XX/XXXX. 

Thank you very much.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (LA)

Complaint:
On Friday, XX/XX/XXXX I went to make an additional payment on my credit card and noticed that my balance hasn't changed much over time. I then noticed that I have been getting an additional $ XXXX- {$18.00} charge every month for a cash advance fee for well over a year now. 
This was odd because I have not used my card in over a year. I called customer service, transferred to a manger and was told that over a year ago in XX/XX/XXXX I got a cash advance for {$20.00}, total being {$23.00} with the fee. 
I have been trying to pay my balance down, I make extra payments and make over the minimum payment due. 
I was told that I have now paid {$850.00} for the {$20.00} bill I took out in XX/XX/XXXX. I was shocked and upset. I told them I send extra payments every month, etc., and asked how do I pay off the {$20.00}? I was told the only way I can pay off the {$20.00} was if I paid off my full balance first of almost {$1900.00} and until then I'll be forever paying for the {$20.00}, which for me would take a long time as I don't have that sort of money as a XXXX parent of XXXX kids to just send over {$1900.00}. 
I asked if there was anything that can be done or help with this matter and was simply told no. This is not right and seems unethical for a company.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: AES/PHEAA (NJ)

Complaint:
This is a continuation of the complaint i have already made through the CFPB - case number XXXX I contacted XXXX from Fedloan XXXX as she was assigned to my case after submitting a formal complaint to the US department of education. She is in charge of obtaining my promissory note and reviewing my interest rates as I have received previous documentation stating my interest rate was higher then the fixed amount. I sent her an email requesting to have a discussion regarding my repayment terms now that they have been changed to 120 months- to find out what my payments would be, how much my loan amount would be reduced etc. 
She called me on XX/XX/XXXX I informed her of the response I received from the CFPB regarding change in payment terms. She stated that typically the 120 months would start in XX/XX/XXXX, stating that my previous XXXX years of payments under the standard repayment plan ( I have paid several hundred dollars more then the actual amount in an attempt to pay it off faster ) would not go towards the 120 months. I questioned her on this because this was FRAUDULENT behavior on the part of Fedloan. My terms from the beginning should have been 120 months ( per US department of education guidelines which they state they follow ). 
Now that I caught them and made the formal complaint I CAN NOW RECEIVE THE CORRECT TERMS??? If that is the case FEDLOAN is continuing to DEFRAUD ME. She then informed me that my loan accrues {$15.00} in interest per day, approximately {$480.00} a month- approximately {$5700.00} a year. THIS IS COMPLETELY INCORRECT. My XXXX XXXX states my student loan interest received by lender is {$10000.00} over the past year. If FEDLOAN doesn't credit me for the months I have paid ( started paying my loan XX/XX/XXXX under the standard repayment plan ) which is XXXX years of payments they are now defrauding me of approximately {$27000.00} or MORE. 

Yesterday- XX/XX/XXXX I received my new repayment terms and they were 120 months starting XX/XX/XXXX. I refuse to allow Fedloan to continue to act in corrupt ways and take advantage of me which is why I decided to submit another formal complaint.

North Town Capital in XXXX NY has been calling me and all my family members trying to get information about someone I am not related to. They refused to completely identify themselves. They lied and said they were a company that just gathers basic info for something I forget what she said. They identify as NCSG only. The lady said by state and federal law they can not disclose information of what they do. Lie one. They said by law they are allowed to call anyone they want when they want.

Company: BBVA FINANCIAL CORPORATION (CA)

Complaint:
Hi, I was affected by COVID and reached out to BBVA after receiving a letter they were offering assistance on XX/XX/XXXX. I spent 59 minutes on the phone with them ( call log attached ) better understanding the terms of COVID relief and confirming that my 0 % balance transfer offer was extended through XXXX. I was transferred to 4 individuals who struggled to find the information but finally, the last one confirmed that XXXX was when my interest rate would increase for both of the balance transfer offers I had. I'm sure the recorded phone call would have that detail. 
As you can see in the attached statement, I started receiving finance charges on the account on XX/XX/XXXX. I made arrangements to pay the balance as soon as I could as I saw that I had incurred the charges, making a payment on XX/XX/XXXX. When I received the next statement I saw that the entire balance was being charged interest even though I'd been told that I had 0 % until XXXX. I called on XX/XX/XXXX and explained the above and was told that they could not reverse interest charges but would open a ticket and that I would receive an answer within 5 business days. Today is XX/XX/XXXX and I have yet to receive a response. I've paid off my entire balance and have been charged even more interest. 
Had I known I would've been charged this interest, I would've made arrangements to pay off the balance, even until financial distress. I'm reaching out because I can not get a call from customer service and feel that I've been taken advantage of under the pretense that they are helping me during COVID. I have attached a copy of my statement, call log and email confirming my COVID assistance on behalf of the company.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (NV)

Complaint:
I reviewed my credit report and saw an account in collections from Capital One. I have a Capital One credit card and kept disputing the item until I find out it was being reported as KOHLS/CAPITAL ONE. I immediately filed a complaint with the FTC since I have never used or opened an account with Kohls. I am a victim of identity theft and have filed complaints with law enforcement. I have begun the process of removing all items negative on my credit report that have never been opened by myself. I am attaching the proof of identity theft. 

I tried to contact the number for Kohl 's and was told they would not talk to me or dispute the item because it was done in the past. I explained to them it was not me who called or disputed anything previously, but they did not want to assist me. I explained and relayed my phone number, email address, and other personal information - all of which did not match the account with Kohls. I was told there was a letter mailed out to me, but I never received it. Approximately two weeks ago, I received a letter addressed to my previous legal name stating there would be no dispute opened due to disputes closed in the past and initiated by somebody pretending to be me and using my information fraudulently. 

Lastly, I was told the item is not being collected on and all collection activity has stopped, but it is still negatively reporting on my credit report. If this is not resolved, I will be forced to pursue legal action and help prosecute the identity thief to the fullest extent of the law.
