Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Loan
Issue: Repossession — Loan balance remaining after the vehicle is repossessed and sold
Company: Driveway Finance Corporation
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
For several months, the account DRIVEWAY FIN ( XXXX ), which refers to a repossession, has been reported on my credit history consistently, being a significantly negative aspect for my finances. This vehicle was repossessed ; however, this repossession was carried out without notifying me in advance, which is something I still have not received information about. If it was taken back by the creditor, they continue to report an outstanding balance equal to my last payment, which is perplexing for me since the repossession should have counted as coverage for the debt. I should have been notified if it was auctioned or not, but this has not been clarified. I filed various disputes with both the credit bureaus and the creditor at the time ; however, I have not received any response from them, which has forced me to submit this complaint. I consider it unfair and a violation of my rights that this account is negatively affecting my credit when the circumstances were triggered against me. Additionally, I must say that the account is reporting inaccurate and incomplete information among the three credit bureaus, which amplifies the number of violations of my rights. Upon researching my case, I found that the company is infringing sections of 15 USC : 15 USC 1681e ( b ) : The information provided to consumers is inaccurate, misleading, or incomplete. 
15 USC 1681i ( 5 ) : Failure to conduct a reasonable investigation into disputed information. 
15 USC 1681 ( a ) : The inaccurate and misleading information contained in the credit report violates the FCRA 's requirement for fair and accurate reporting. 
15 USC 1681 ( a ) : The failure to investigate and correct these inaccuracies within a reasonable time frame is a violation of the FCRA. 
15 USC 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 2 ) : Furnishing information to a consumer reporting agency without the consumer 's written instructions. 
15 USC 1681n : failed to provide me with clear and conspicuous notice of my rights under the FCRA.

Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Didn't receive advertised or promotional terms
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Citibank has the recording where I was told that cashing a promotional check the interest rate is 0 % for 12 months. I reinterated to the citibank associate before cashing the promotional check that it was 0 % interest for 12 months. They assured me it is 0 % for 12 months. Now they say that it is 3.99 % interest for 12 months plus an initial fee of 3.99 %. I get the initial fee of 3.99 % but not the 3.99 % for 12 months on top of that. When I contacted citibank they did listen to the recording and confirmed that their associate did state 0 % for 12 months. But they are not honoring that. Total bait and switch. I filed a complaint with citibank and they said they would investigate and reply within 7 to 14 days. Then I canceled my account and they just said fine and hung up. I have not heard back as to what their investigation found. I wonder how many other people they do this too.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of these items. Your failure to positively verify these accounts and inquiries has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

They said you probably caused damage. I said I did not. I asked do you have any Pictures or receipts? They said yes somewhere in a file. They asked me to call back the next day. I did. They said they couldn't find the file and to call back next week to give them time to find it. I called back and my number was ignored. 
I then get letters from a company called National Credit Systems Inc. I logged in to their site as requested. I opened a file that says itemization of charges. The file is empty. Nobody can explain to me or show proof of any reason I owe money.
