Regardless of the multiple written requests, the unverified accounts listed below are still reporting on my credit report in violation of federal law. The TransUnion Credit Bureau failed to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time declared by law and continued reporting of unconfirmed information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes.

Issue: Trouble using your card — Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: AR

Complaint narrative:
I have a two credit accounts with this company, I have had them for approximately 6 months. I got the accounts and one had a limit of {$1800.00} and the other {$500.00}. I made purchases on both and have been paying ON TIME/EARLY and even a little bit extra. I have gotten the balances down to less than {$900.00} and less than {$250.00}. I haven't been using any other credit other than these two cards with this company. I have an open card with another company which I have a {$0.00} balance because I used it and paid it off but I have a credit limit of about {$2000.00}. So between the three cards I utilized less than 30 % of my available balance as to keep my credit score high. I got a letter today stating they decreased the credit limit of the {$1800.00} to {$880.00} which has thrown my utilization to almost 100 % and decreased my credit score drastically. I called and they say they have the right to do this at will and that I would need to talk to XXXX because that is where they got the score and they can't increase my limit without a higher score. This is not an ethical practice nor should it be legal. The only way to get my score back would be to forced to pay off this card to bring my utilization ratio back. The only reason I made a purchase was because of special no interest financing. They are forcing me to pay off early or have a reduction in my score. That is not a fair business practice.

Company: TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I write you to address cascading events sprung by serial errors of XXXX Bank of XXXX MA. It started last fall with XXXX mailing my bank statements to a defunct out of state business address in error. These statements indicated three returned checks with associated overdraft fees. XXXX mailed a letter to me received on XXXX XX/XX/2022 stating that I owed XXXX  {$230.00}. 

This if the first time I knew there was a problem since all my statements were being sent elsewhere without my knowledge or consent. I called the number on the letter, and I asked for and got a list of the six charges totaling {$200.00}. I agreed to pay the full amount of {$230.00} immediately. The XXXX Rep said if paid that same day there would be no further action. 

I immediately went to the XXXX ( local ) branch, met with Bank Manager XXXX XXXX XXXX, explained the situation, and I paid the full balance. She assured me that the matter was at that moment ; settled. XXXX XXXX revealed the statements were going to a NH address and thats why I had no notice. Further, she said she would bump my complaint up to top management for corrective action. As of now, I have heard nothing. 

Yesterday, I received a demand letter for {$230.00} from a debt collection company, Transworld Systems Inc, TSI ( attached ). Now, my credit score has been damaged by false reporting.

State: MO

Complaint narrative:
First : XXXX XXXX is reporting negative information while being on a Covid Relief Plan which I was told would not affect my credit report. They are reporting late pmts because when XXXX XXXX merged, they left my name off the mortgage acct and I had to get an attorney to make them accept questions & phone calls from me because my spouse died. 

Second : XXXX could not provide service that worked at my house, so I cancelled it. They are showing a charge for equipment & a contract cancellation. It was their fault it their service would not work at my house. I have signed receipts from a customer service rep at XXXX showing I returned ALL of their equipment. 

Third : XXXX is showing an amount due for breaking a contract, but they will not provide me with a copy of the contract. I was told numerous times when I bought their service that there was NO contract. I sold my house & had to disconnect it. 

Fourth : I had perfect credit on this account until the XXXX did not apply my credits to my credit card, so after fighting with them and refusing to pay and closing my account, they kept adding interest for several months before closing it. 

Fifth : XXXX XXXX, I had a {$68.00} balance, and returned an online order for {$75.00} which they did not credit to my account. Fought with their customer service to no avail, closed account.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I had a {$300.00} limit credit card with Capital One that was charged off in 2018. The debt was sold to a XXXX party debt collector. My credit report still shows the account with Capital One, with a new entry for non payment added every month. When I try to contact Capital One by phone I am transfered to a voice-mail for what I assume is the XXXX party debt collector as soon as I enter identifying information. I am not able to speak with anyone at Capital One. Since Capital One no longer owns the debt I believe my credit report entry showing a balance with Capital One is in error. Please assist in addressing this matter, as this entry on my credit report has made it impossible to rent an apartment despite having sufficient funds.
