Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan — Installment loan
Issue: Problem when making payments — 
Company: DigniFi
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a loan with Dignifi Financial back XX/XX/XXXX, the loan was due with the final payment on XX/XX/XXXX. However, I have paid all of the loan with the exception of {$75.00}. This {$75.00} represent NSF fees. However, it was not my fault. Unfortunately, I was trying to make the payment with a different payment method, other than the default method but it automatically diverts back to the payment method that I did not choose. I have asked Dignifi to waive these fees. However, they have refused to do so. I don't think that it is fair, when their system is the problem. Again, this loan was not due to be completed until XX/XX/XXXX. I paid it off early.

Company: Exeter Finance, LLC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Exeter Finance company is repeatedly resetting the dates on the loan. I have filled complaints but they keep harassing y by manipulating my credit score. They passed the loans to other collections and start the date with a new loan date that expands the length of the loan. Somehow Everytime my loan score goes up it unexplainably drops drastically. It's unfair advantage to connect with the credit bureaus and punish and harass me by dropping my credit score almost everytime it goes up. I'm on social security and I can't pay what they are demanding. I tried to pay them but they demanded I pay at a rate I couldn't afford. When they sold me the car I was on social security.They never notified me that the car was resold.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXX XXXX, I received a collections call from Comenity Bank. This is absolutely unacceptable, and is very much an attempt to skirt the law surrounding collections calls before XXXX XXXX  and after XXXX XXXX. In addition to this experience, back in XXXX ( I unfortunately do not recall the exact date ), I had to call and complain regarding a similar problem of excessive calls at inappropriate times. In addition to this problem, Comenity was also not honoring my auto-payment agreement that I had created with them. This happened not once, but THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. Each time I asked what happened, they flat-out lied because each time it was never fixed. I made sure most recently that it was set-up, and they admitted on the recorded line that it was set-up correctly but assured me that this wouldnt happen again and it would be paid automatically on XX/XX/XXXX. This did not happen, and I have now been charged another late fee that seems to have increased from last time. More over I have reason to believe that one of their employees gained access to my information for this card ( it is a Kay credit card ) and used it to purchase mens diamond-gold earrings. I came to this conclusion as the card has not left my home since I received it, and Kay themselves confirmed for me that one of their employees could not have gone in and used my card to place the order, especially since the fraudster sent it to my address as they did not have the ability to change the delivery address. This would only occur if the fraudster only had the limited access that logging in with only the card information provides.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my dissatisfaction and concern regarding the second unsuccessful attempt to expedite the removal of fraudulent items from my credit file. Despite my continued efforts and the urgency of the situation, the fraudulent entries persist on my credit report, causing significant distress and adversely affecting my financial standing. 

I understand the importance of promptly addressing and rectifying fraudulent items to safeguard my creditworthiness and financial well-being. I have previously submitted identity theft affidavits, police reports, and supporting documentation to expedite the removal process. However, it is disheartening to note that these efforts have not resulted in the desired outcome, and the fraudulent items remain unresolved. 

The persistent presence of these inaccuracies continues to hamper my ability to secure credit, obtain favorable interest rates, and manage my financial affairs effectively. 

I urgently request an immediate and thorough reinvestigation into this matter with a commitment to expedite the removal of the fraudulent items from my credit report. I expect a detailed response within the exact timeframe acknowledging the receipt of this second complaint and providing a clear plan of action to address and promptly correct the fraudulent items. 

Failure to resolve this matter expediently may compel me to escalate my complaint to regulatory authorities and seek legal recourse to protect my rights. I am asking for your assistance to remove these fraudulent items in my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
