Complaint narrative:
Formal notice that you have failed to respond in a timely manner to my dispute letter of XX/XX/XXXX, deposited by registered mail with the U.S. Postal Service on that date. Federal law requires you to respond within thirty ( 30 ) days, yet you have failed to respond. Failure to comply with these federal regulations by credit reporting agencies are investigated by the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) ( see 15 USC 41, et seq. ).

I am maintaining a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance. I further remind you that, as in Wenger v. XXXX XXXX Corp., No. 95-6445 ( C.D.Cal. Nov. 14, 1995 ), you may be liable for your willful non-compliance.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
Dear customer service representative, I redeemed my membership reward points on amextrave.com on XX/XX/2021 and tried to pay with points when I booked a ticket. However, when I placed the order, I received the confirmation email which stated that Your booking has been charged to your credit card, however, we were unable to process your Pay With Points request due to a system issue. Then I contacted amex customer service to redeem the points for that transaction. As a benefit of the amex business platinum account, I should receive a 35 % points back for that transaction. However, amex denied the 35 % points back without giving any specific reason. 
I chatted online with amex, called the membership rewards team, called the amex travel team for the issue, no one could help me to solve the issue. Furthermore, the membership rewards teams freeze my membership account without any notice. It is ridiculous and disappointing. 

Business platinum account ending in XXXX

Synchrony is the agency that provides credit to creditor once approved for XXXX purchases. XXXX sent the money to XXXX. Thus, now Synchrony is stating that XXXX sent the funds to XXXX and I still owe the funds to them.

Company: SOUTHSTATE BANK CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2021 I have discovered an adverse reporting on my bureau with experian for a collection with a bank I have not had a relationship with. I have a collection on my account for {$30000.00}. I have disputed the matter with the credit bureau. I have also called the bank directly to find out what this was about and what their procedure to remove the claim was. Centerstate bank was completely unwilling to share practices on how to go about stopping the claim, including sending a police report filed for identity fraud. I have made the point if this was a valid collection, why was a letter, not one, was ever sent to us. It's as if this debt appeared out of nowhere. I'm not 100 % sure why Centerstate bank does not help us out or why procedures to dispute this are not handled. We are ready to formally proceed with whatever need to be does to prove this debt is not mine. 

Centerstate bank mentioned this was a mortgage for XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, fl XXXX. A property we own and finance with XXXX XXXX XXXX. The mortgage ( balance around $ 58k ) is current and paid timely. This mortgage is also under my husband 's name, XXXX XXXX. Once again, how is there a mortgage for $ XXXX for a property that was never even under my name, with a bank we've never done business or signed a contract with? And once again, they are completely unwilling to work with us to fix this matter. 

The associate i've spoken spoken to at Centerstate bank was called XXXX in their winter park branch. She said she would 'call me back '. Her tone was telling that I would never get a call back from them. The phone number I dialed was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/2021 I sent a letter re : inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report. It has been over 60 days and I have not received a response yet. I feel like I am being ignored and taken advantage of regarding my disputes. Section 611 ( a ) clearly states that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. It has been over 60 days so they should be promptly deleted.I am distressed that you have included the information below in my credit profile and that you have failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum possible accuracy in the credit reports you publish. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Furthermore, In accordance with The Fair Credit Reporting Act, Public law 91-506, Title VI, Section 611, Subsection A-D, please provide the names and business addresses of each individual with whom you verified the above, so that I may follow up. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be re-investigated. This has really caused me a lot of stress and strain and I demand that these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation. My information was also impacted by the Equifax data breach and may have gotten into the hands of the wrong person.
