Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint: hello- I was involved in the XXXX breach and the Transunion glitch. Now all of a sudden, I have numerous inquiries on my credit report that do not belong to me. I also have 2 accounts with XXXX XXXX XXXX that were NEVER paid late now showing 30 and 90 days late. This needs to be corrected and showing no late payments as it did before. I have reached out to this company to take care of these issues but they have refused. My credit was very good with no derogatory information and now these items have appeared on my report. I have done an excellent job with making sure I have positive credit. But these factors are eliminating me from purchasing a home. I want these items to be removed within 5 days upon receipt of my complaint or I will be seeking legal advice.

Consumer complaint received 05-11-2017 about Debt collection (Credit card debt) with PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES INC (AL).
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint: I contacted  Portfolio Recovery Associates regardin g an account listed under  XXXX  different original creditor names that appear to be the same account. Regardless both are erroneous, and they are reporting as a collections account on my credit report. This information is totally inaccurate, and they were given time to investigate. They broke the law by not adding the proper verbiage to the account within the allowed 30 days, and they have not presented any documents showing where I have ever had a contractual agreement bearing my signature to pay them anything. This is derogatory information on my credit report and is in direct violation of federal laws. I demand this inaccurate information to be deleted from my credit file with all the credit bureaus immediately. I am attaching ALL documentation backing my claim to make said claim as clear as possible. They replied with a letter stating they reviewed the dispute and their records indicate they have already responded to a previous dispute same as my present dispute. This is not true. I never dealt with  Portfolio Recovery,   therefore no documentation has ever been provided to me bearing my signature.

Consumer complaint received 06/22/2017 about Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service (Mobile or digital wallet) with STATE FARM BANK, FSB (NH).
Issue: Unauthorized transactions or other transaction problem

Complaint: On XXXX XXXX 2017 I made an online payment from XXXX XXXX XXXX to pay my mortgage to State Farm Bank, the payment never got applied. I called State Farm at least 10 times about the payment, every time I called them there was a different story. At one point as rep said they found the money in the cash reserve and that State Farm was going to apply the money to my mortgage the following month. I did not realize the payment never got deposited until I got a late payment letter in the mail. I called State Farm and they told me that they never had the money that the money was deposited in XXXX XXXX. I called my bank to see if we could stop payment but the check was already deposited. I called XXXX XXXX to see if they had the money, they said they have no record of ever having it deposited. I called my bank and they told me I needed State Farm Bank to sign and affidavit. I went to my local agent since State Farm is not a brick and mortar. After a few weeks my agent said State Farm refuses the sign. I called my bank ( XXXX XXXX ) and they said they can not do anything until we get that affidavit signed I have a hard copy of the check written out to State Farm Bank and the back of the check stating it was deposited by XXXX XXXX. I am at wits end and frankly want my money back.

Consumer complaint received 01-08-2018 about Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service (Mobile or digital wallet) with Coinbase, Inc. (GA).
Issue: Managing, opening, or closing your mobile wallet account

Complaint: On XXXX XXXX, XXXX I was locked out of my coinbase / XXXX account in the middle of a transaction for no known reason. I have been on hold with coinbase for a total of ten hours. The first time someone answered they hung up on me. The second time someone answered she told me she would escalate my case to a ten on a scale of one to ten and they ask to correspond through email. No one answers my emails so I held on the phone today for another hour. I was told by XXXX that there was nothing she could do because she didnt have a phone number for the account escalation department and if she emailed them it would kick me out of line and I would have to start over. They are holding my money for no reason for two weeks now. Oh, and XXXX Answer was unacceptable to me so I told her I would hold so she could find out how to call this other department and she just hung up on me too.

Consumer complaint received 07-07-2017 about Credit card or prepaid card (General-purpose credit card or charge card) with CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (NC).
Issue: Getting a credit card
Sub-issue: Application denied

Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I applied for a credit card with Capital One and received an instant approval with a credit limit of {$2000.00}. When trying to download the ap I noticed the account was restricted and I reached out to capital one. I was told by 3 fraud reps that Capital One made an error with my application and it was approved in error and I would receive a letter in the mail on how to proceed. No one was able to validate what error was made by Capital nor how  it could effect an account being approved. On XX/XX/XXXX I noticed that account was closed and I reached back out. I was told that Capital One accidentally linked a promotion code to my account and that the account was closed to " protect me ''. I advised that the excuse given was NOT acceptable. when applying for credit a customers profile is pulled along with income information to determine their creditworthiness. Capital One told me to reapply but its not a guarantee I will be approved. This is a poor credit practice and it is not fair to me as a consumer to be approved for a product based on my personal information imputed and then told there was an error on CO side and the account was closed. capital One still has not explained to me how a promotion code could affect my approval. As I stated an approval is based on each individual consumers person information and credit report.

Consumer complaint received 06/13/2017 about Student loan (Federal student loan servicing) with AES/PHEAA (ME).
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are being handled

Complaint: Issue  with Fedloan. Is sue since  XXXX   XXXX  regarding an incorrect interest balance. In  XXXX   XXXX  an incorrect amount of interest capitalized on my account. I was on an income driven repayment  plan ( pay as you earn ) and was determined to pay {$0.00} a month in payments and the government therefore woul d pay my interest from  XXXX   XXXX . This did not happen due to some error, and so at the end of the yea r ( when I switched to a new repayment plan that required me to make payments since I was now employed ) the amount was put on my account and the interest capitalized. I had to make numerous payments to pa y down that interest beginning in  XXXX   XXXX . This was interest that never should have been there, thus those first several payments would have been going to pay down the loan principle, but instead had to go towards the interest that should have never been there. I have been told via phone that this will be remedied although the exact timeline is uncertai n ( Granted it w ill be 2 years of this issue in  XXXX   XXXX  ). I recently received written confirmation stating that, " Our records indicate that you will be granted the interest subisdy for the period of  XXXX  of  XXXX  to  XXXX  of  XXXX . We do not have a timeframe or amount for this yet, but you will be notified once it is completed. '' I do not understand where this timeline of  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  comes from. There was also no written confirmation verifying the amount of repayment, nor how it was calculated. I am worried that simply granting me the interest subsidy that was lost is not enough, since it ignores the fact that my initial payments in  XXXX  would have otherwise been able to go towards the loan principle. Because they instead were forced to go to the interests that should n't have been there in the first place, the repayment life of my loans has been prolonged by more than just the amount of the missing interest subsidy.     I have been documenting this process and been met with inadequate, vague responses, or no response at all.

Consumer complaint received 10/29/2015 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with SCOTTRADE BANK (CA).
Issue: Making/receiving payments, sending money

Complaint: To whom this may concern, Attached is a slightly outdated version of my tax documents. The highlighted items are fraudulent items submitted by Scottrade. Upon receipt of a police report and supporting documentation the IRS removed these items. However, shortly afterwards, Scottrade, in order to retaliate and discourage a Whistleblower, submitted them back to the IRS. 

This back and forth and the failure of Scottrade to take responsibility for their faults has caused me enormous headaches when dealing with the IRS. Essentially, when Scottrade and the IRS continue to change what it submitted to my tax return, the amount of tax owed keeps changing. Resulting in refunds, that then result in deficient payments, that go back and forth with utter confusion.

Consumer complaint received 07/29/2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with EQUIFAX, INC. (PA).
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint: I keep receiving unauthorized hard inquiries on my credit report from XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I XXXX the company it says that it 's a Car Dealership in XXXX XXXX MD.
First issue I do not live in XXXX MD.
Second Issue I have not been to any car dealership looking or shopping for a car and have definitely not authorized anyone or company to check my credit especially since recently I 've been working extremely hard to improve my credit.
Third Issue I have no idea who they are and from researching my credit report I have found out that this is not their first time they have pulled my credit without my authorized permission.
I believe that something extremely suspicious is going on with this company. I mean why is a car dealership pulling my credit and on multiple occasions actually around the same time last year. The way it 's happening I do n't believe that it 's identify theft I believe that someone is illegally using their credit pulling privileges to obtain my credit report.
Dealerships are not allowed to view a customer 's credit reports until that customer specifically asks for credit terms, I can actually testify that I have never done this.
My credit score dropped XXXX points from this inquiry after all of my hard work of re-establishing my credit I was extremely devastated and now determined to get down to the bottom of this.
On XX/XX/XXXX &XX/XX/XXXX, I received unauthorized hard inquires on my credit report causing my score to drop.
I believe that this is illegal and if this issue is not resolved I will be seeking legal counsel to go about properly getting it resolved.
I continuously tried to contact Equifax about this situation but they continously say that it 's nothing that they can do.
