Complaint narrative:
This company takes payments via debit card and then illegally holds that money for several weeks claiming they need to 'verify ' funds even though they have had those funds for weeks. They place additional random and wholly illegal holds on the card preventing the cards use This bank is shady at best. Their customer service personnel are not from the U.S. and are of no help, constantly citing bank 'policy ' as the reason for the illegal practices.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: ID

Complaint narrative:
I have repeatedly received emails from XXXX XXXX, otherwise known as Synchrony Bank, for the past year. These monthly emails request that I pay back a loan I took out to get XXXX. I have been, and still am more than willing to pay this loan, but their website is non-functional and their phone number is a dead end. I have exchanged emails back and forth, and they continuously tell me to pay online, and day after day I keep checking their website to no avail. As a result, my credit score has been tanking, and it feels like my entire life is crashing down around me, completely out of my control. Months ago, I had repeatedly set up automatic payments, which they cancel without telling me. Rather infuriating.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I. Introduction : I hereby submit a formal complaint against TransUnion for racial discrimination, retaliation, bank fraud, wire fraud, and violations of the RICO Act, infringing upon my rights under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act ( ECOA ), the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and other pertinent federal laws.

III. Active Complaints with FBI, FTC, and CFPB : This grievance is not isolated. The FBI, FTC, and CFPB have active complaints regarding similar issues with TransUnion, highlighting a pattern of potentially illegal practices by the company.

IV. Allegations of Bank Fraud, Wire Fraud, and RICO Violations : Bank Fraud : I have reasons to believe that TransUnion has knowingly engaged in deceptive practices to defraud banks or other financial institutions, which is a violation of 18 U.S.C. 1344.

Wire Fraud : TransUnion is suspected of using interstate wire communications to defraud consumers, violating 18 U.S.C. 1343. Their actions have not only harmed my financial standing but have also illegally profited by using deceptive practices. 
RICO Violations : TransUnions actions suggest a pattern of racketeering activity. By accepting financial incentives for reporting, they may be in violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations ( RICO ) Act, specifically 18 U.S.C. 1961-1968.

V. Racial Discrimination : TransUnion has not only failed to unlock my credit report despite numerous requests but also appears to be discriminating against me based on my race, violating the ECOA. 

VI. Retaliation : Their refusal to address previous complaints and unlock my credit report seems retaliatory for filing federal complaints, violating principles of fairness and justice.

VII. Discrepancies with Other Credit Bureaus : Other credit bureaus, namely XXXX and XXXX, have adhered to federal laws by deleting inaccurate information from my credit reports. TransUnions refusal to do the same raises serious concerns about their practices. 

VIII. Legal Action : If these issues remain unaddressed, I intend to escalate this matter legally, seeking remedies for the harm inflicted upon me due to racial discrimination, bank fraud, wire fraud, and RICO violations.

IX. Conclusion : I urge the CFPB and DOJ to investigate these serious allegations against TransUnion. Their practices have caused significant harm and warrant thorough examination and intervention by your esteemed agencies.

I anticipate your prompt attention to this grave matter.

Company: OLIPHANT FINANCIAL, LLC
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/2023, Oliphant financial posted a collection account to my credit. I called Oliphant and learned they had attempted to send a letter to an address in XXXX AZ that I had lived at in over five years. Oliphant told me that the original creditor was a company called XXXX and I told Oliphant that I have a fraud alert on my credit file and that I do not remember ordering anything from this company and that in XXXX my banking information was hacked so I needed to verify this charge. I told Oliphant that I never received any communication from them prior to them reporting this to my credit file and that I had not opportunity to validate the debt within the 30 days I am entitled to. I then filed a complaint with the XXXX complaint # XXXX. Oliphant used stall tactics initially responding to my XXXX  complaint that they couldn't respond because it would reveal my personal information and they did not have permission from me. So I did not accept that response and their second response was to have me call them again. When I called them again, I was just told the same thing so I'm not sure what the point was in having me call them again. I have called XXXX and apparently this company does not exist anymore. It was bought out and the new company can not prove that I was the one who ordered this or give me any additional information. The original creditor can not validate the debt! I offered Oliphant the money just to be rid of this headache and have my credit restored but I was told they do not offer pay for delete. Because I never received proper notice and because the debt can not be validate since XXXX does not exist anymore all collection accounts should be immediately DELETED. For reference Oliphant employees I spoke to XXXX and XXXX.
