Consumer complaint received 2021-04-20
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — Store credit card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: RC Willey (UT)

Complaint:
We received a statement from RC Willey reflecting activity and charges we did not authorized. We had purchased and returned some items from the store and specifically charged the purchase on our Visa card - not the store credit card. The accounts lady said she did not understand why we weren't using the store card and my wife specifically told her we wanted to pay with our Visa card for personal reasons.

We then received the statement from the store ( and our Visa statement ) reflecting the lady reversed a charge to the Visa card and then charged the store credit card, contrary to our instructions. Moreover, some of our returns are not reflected on the Visa card. 

When my wife contacted the accounting offices of the store, they indicated that return credits are reserved on the store account until other purchases are made to offset future purchase costs. This dies not make sense.

Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (CA)

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2020 Comenity Capital Bank charged me an interest fee of {$4900.00}. The reason for the charge is that I did not complete my payment on time for promotional interest rate. 

However, I sent in a payment of {$6000.00} electronically on XX/XX/2020 to Comenity Bank, which was posted on my account. Comenity Bank did not process my payment of {$6000.00} until XX/XX/2020. 

Now, I'm being charged {$4900.00} worth of interest, i have tried to explain and sent in transaction details, but they are not taking it into consideration.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CO)

Complaint:
This complaint encumbers TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX. 
Date : XXXX - XXXX I need clarification on why creditors are able to receive updated consumer reports on their current customers. As the credit bureaus are behind and updating data from the creditors, this can be harmful to consumers. 

For example - XXXX XXXX has been my creditor for XXXX  years. They are able to access my credit file at any time. If I have not been behind on my paying all creditors, XXXX will reduced my credit line line due to the inquiries on the credit report up to and including increases on interest rates. The inquiries caused a XXXX XXXX decrease and decreased my available credit. 

When the credit line was decreased, the credit line is closer to being maxed out which also had a negative impact on my XXXX XXXX XXXX. The credit line is over extended and continues to be a domino effect as the other creditors follow suit. 

The FICO scores are designed to keep everyday consumers down. The FICO scores determines what subprime lending box the consumer will be put in, not include favorable terms for consumers.

Complaint:
A few weeks ago I sent letters to all 3 credit bureaus regarding some items on my credit report which I know are not accurate which is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA and you must abide by the law. Everything I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. Ive received emails and letters saying Im using a 3rd party which is incorrect because I am the one sending my letters out and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair company or 3rd party. The CRAs are in violation of my rights due to not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I request these accounts to be deleted from my credit asap or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I want to purchase a house soon and this holding me back. 

I would like the items I disputed in my letters to be handled accordingly based on the reasons that I put in my letters.

Company: DISCOVER BANK (TN)

Complaint:
Company would not offer refinancing unless credit was perfect or never missed payment. Any logical person would know If payments were affordable there would be no need to refinance. Also Variable interest lending to a XXXX year old student desperate to receive an education is just not right. It is almost predatory. I will accept the responsibility of being a uninformed borrower. But the simple fact I can send money and pay but never pay the loan down if i miss a $ 700+ payment is utterly ridiculous. Which means company will collect thousands of dollars and say I owe more. This ruining my life and the life of others. This preventing many people from being productive citizens.

Complaint:
Subject : Complaint Against XXXX XXXX for Failing to Adhere to FCRA Requirements Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX XXXX  regarding their failure to adhere to the requirements outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). XXXX XXXX has inaccurately reported a debt from a non-existent creditor, Synchrony Bank, which is causing significant harm to my credit profile. Despite my repeated attempts to rectify this issue, XXXX XXXX continues to report this erroneous information, claiming that I have a XXXX XXXX XXXX with Synchrony Bank, when in fact, my credit card is with XXXX XXXX. This continued inaccurate reporting constitutes a violation of the FCRA. 

Under the FCRA, debt collectors are obligated to report 100 percent accurate information, including the names of the creditors, on credit reports. XXXX XXXX failure to adhere to this requirement is evident in their reporting of a non-existent debt with Synchrony Bank, thereby damaging my creditworthiness and causing unwarranted distress. I have clearly communicated to XXXX XXXX that this information is inaccurate and have requested a dispute, yet they persist in mailing me statements from XXXX XXXX, which confirms the fraudulent information being reported. 

The FCRA was enacted to protect consumers like myself from such inaccurate reporting by debt XXXX. It is imperative that XXXX XXXX rectifies this violation promptly and removes the false debt associated with Synchrony Bank from my credit report. Their continued disregard for the FCRA provisions is causing me significant financial and emotional distress. 

I kindly request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus intervention in this matter to ensure that XXXX XXXX is held accountable for their violations of the FCRA. I ask that you thoroughly investigate this issue and take appropriate actions to rectify the inaccurate reporting, including the removal of the negative information from my credit report. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust in the Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus commitment to protecting consumer rights and ensuring fair practices in the financial industry. I look forward to a prompt resolution of this issue. 

Sincerely, [ Your Name ]
