Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: Credit Fresh Holdings Inc
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint against TransUnion for its ongoing reporting of a fraudulent CreditFresh account that was opened without my authorization as a result of identity theft. XXXX refusal to block this account from my credit file, despite receiving the proper documentation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), constitutes a violation of my rights under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2. 

I have submitted a valid identity theft report to TransUnion, which includes : A Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) Identity Theft Report generated at XXXX ; A copy of my government-issued drivers license ; Proof of current residence. 

These documents were submitted in accordance with the FCRAs procedures for blocking fraudulent information resulting from identity theft. Under FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), a consumer reporting agency must block such information within four business days of receiving : Proper identification ; An identity theft report ; A statement by the consumer identifying the fraudulent accounts. 

Despite satisfying these requirements, TransUnion continues to report the fraudulent CreditFresh account, which has no connection to me and was opened without my knowledge or consent. This false tradeline is severely damaging my credit profile and financial stability. I have been denied credit, experienced increased interest rates, and endured unnecessary stress and hardship due to the presence of this fraudulent information. 

XXXX failure to remove this account is not only a violation of the FCRA, but it also demonstrates a failure to adequately investigate or respect the rights of identity theft victims.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I was overcharged on a {$400.00} secured credit card with Discover. They decided to close my account because I filed a fraud dispute and they claim it was not fraud. They did not ask me further questions as to what happened, if the card was stolen, and what circumstances occurred around the charges being put on my card. One representative stated she looked at their software and login info and it showed different locations were on the app. My personal belongings were stolen which I expressed that to the company and I was treated as though I was lying and trying to get money from a card I funded with my own money. I was re-charged for items that I had no issue with in the first place. This has caused a great deal of stress because I came to Discover to further my credit goals.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Capital One reported a 60-day late payment on an account I was completely unaware of. I did not apply for a new Capital One card, did not activate or use the one they issued, and was never made aware that I had a balance. 

Capital One stated they took over Kohl 's store credit card in XXXX of XXXX. However, I was still actively using and making payments on my Koh 's account via the Koh 's app through the end of XXXX, and that app showed a {$0.00} balance. I had no knowledge that the account had been transferred to Capital One, not that any balance remained. 

Capital One held the balance, applied interest and late fees, and ultimately reported the account as delinquent without sending email or phone communication. Capital One stated they mailed paper statements, but I never knowingly received billing communications or recognized them as tied to an active account, especially because I had elected into electronic statements for my Kohl 's store card and actively monitored the balance via the Kohl 's app. I had no reason to expect a Capital One card or balance, as I did not activate or use any such card. They confirmed they had my accurate phone number and email, but never used them to notify me of any balance or missed payment. 

I only became aware of this issue when my bank alerted me to a drop in my credit score, down XXXX points from XXXX, due to the reported delinquency. I paid the full balance immediately upon discovery and called Capital One multiple times, but no resolution was offered. I requested a goodwill adjustment and was told this could not be done due to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

This is a misrepresentation of the FCRA. The law requires accurate reporting it does not require the reporting of delinquencies, nor does it prohibit creditors from removing them as a courtesy. I am requesting that Capital One remove the 60-day late mark from my credit report due to the lack of proper notice, the confusion caused by the transition from Kohls, and my immediate resolution once I became aware of the issue.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing several inaccuracies currently appearing on my credit report, specifically unauthorized and inaccurate accounts and credit inquiries that I did not initiate or approve. These entries represent a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly 15 U.S. Code 1681i, which requires a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates that information reported must be accurate to the maximum extent possible. In addition, I am disputing a potentially misreported late payment. According to 15 U.S.C. 1666b, creditors must allow at least 21 days between the statement date and the payment due date before classifying a payment as late. Based on my records, this standard may not have been met, or the payment was submitted on time and inaccurately reported as delinquent.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I purchased a used XXXX from a dealership XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, and financed the vehicle through Chase Bank. As part of the loan, I was sold XXXX XXXX  from Dealer Loyalty Protection. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, my vehicle was declared a total loss. My auto insurer did not cover the entire loan balance, leaving a remaining XXXX amount of {$8900.00} which should have been covered by the XXXX XXXX. 

Dealer Loyalty Protection denied my XXXX  claim ( CLAIM XXXX ), falsely stating that the amount had already been paid and subtracting costs for XXXX and XXXX, which were financed but not listed as exclusions in the contract. I requested an explanation and supporting documents from the company, but they did not provide a clear or justified response. 

This denial appears to be in bad faith and contradicts the terms of the coverage. The refusal to pay the XXXX amount has caused me serious financial harm, and I request a full investigation and appropriate resolution.
