Complaint narrative:
Subject : Immediate Removal of Bankruptcy Entry from Credit Reports I am writing to demand the immediate removal of the bankruptcy entry on my credit reports. I have never authorized this reporting, and I am officially opting out of any such reporting, both now and in the future. 
This request is supported by the Privacy Act of 1974, 15 USC 1681a, and regulations under 12 CFR 1016.1, 1016.13, 1016.14, and 1016.15, which require explicit consumer consent for the disclosure of such information. In addition, 12 CFR 1016.4 emphasizes the necessity for consumer consent prior to any reporting, which I have not provided. 
I also wish to point out that I have received confirmation via email from the Colorado Bankruptcy Court stating explicitly that they do not provide information to credit reporting agencies. This is further evidence that the reporting of my bankruptcy is both unauthorized and in violation of my privacy rights as outlined in the aforementioned statutes. 
Given these facts, I insist on the immediate removal of the bankruptcy reporting from all my credit reports and confirmation that I have been opted out of any future reporting of this nature. 
Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. I expect to receive confirmation of the removal of the bankruptcy entry within 30 days of this letter.

Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I purchased a {$50.00} gift card for XXXX gas stations, and I purchased it through Affirm. 

The original purchase took place on XX/XX/year>, and I was supposed to get the gift card in my email within 24 hours. 

A link appeared in my email 2 days later, but there was no gift card in this link. 

I spoke to customer service at Affirm, and they told me to contact XXXX directly. 

I called XXXX customer service to inquire about the card, but they said they have no record of the transaction taking place as the purchase was not made directly through them, but through Affirm. 

They told me Id have to resolve the issue with Affirm. 

I spoke with Affirm again, let them know what XXXX said, to which they said Im still responsible for paying for the gift card even though I havent received it. 

At this point, I requested to cancel the order and refund my initial payment of {$12.00} I had made on the gift card, to which they refused. 

I requested a call from whoever was in charge at Affirm, and I was ignored. 

Affirm states that I have to contact the merchant directly in regards to any issues and/or returns before they take any action. I did this, and they are still refusing to refund and cancel my order despite XXXX having no record of the transaction, and also despite me still not having the gift card over a week later.
