Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: NE

Complaint narrative:
I tried to make an extra {$100.00} payment ( on XXXX, not my scheduled auto payment ) and they used a closed bank account from two years. Charged up return check fee, then closed my account because they use the wrong account. I have not missed any payments. I always pay extra on the card and I hardly ever use it, but they hurt my credit really bad by closing the account and demanding the money for it. I had the same problem with the same company the month prior when they canceled all my auto payments on all my synchrony cards, first they told me it was a computer glitch. Then they told me it was my fault cause I never scheduled all the payments when my history shows that I had auto payments scheduled and been using auto payment for the past year. I am going to pursue any legal options that I might have because I do not think this is a fair practice.

Complaint narrative:
I got a notification of a collection on my transunion credit report and called immediately to the collection agency princeparker. They could not identify me by my name, address, telephone number and my information did not match the collection except for the ssn. I had my ssn stolen and have had several attempted attempts to open credit cards and loans in my name. My file is locked. I have a current XXXX XXXX XXXX account which is an always has been current for more than 20 years. The thief was able to use my ssn to open some sort of account somewhere unknown in XXXX for {$230.00} which went into collection on XX/XX/XXXX. I demanded that this account be removed from my file since it was obviously a fraud and the agent hung up on me after demanding that I pay the account in full before they could verify the debt, Agent did not follow through on verifying the debt bc the identifying information that they have on file is for the thief and not me. I want this item removed ASAP. I immediately filed a dispute with trans union but trans union has not removed the item from my report after contacting princeparker. Trans union has not given me a reason why item is still XXXX my report and says that my dispute while complete the information is unavailable to me. I contacted trans union again today and they were unhelpful. Filing this separate complain against trans union based on these facts. I have no information other than what is listed on the credit report for this collection as I have never been contacted by the collection agency or XXXX XXXX XXXX,

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I wish that you are doing well as I write this. I'm writing to let you know of an issue with my account 's reporting of late payments. I found that there are late payment entries on my account that have lowered my credit score after looking over my most recent credit report. 

I understand the importance of accurate reporting, and I am committed to maintaining a positive credit history. However, I believe there may be errors in the reporting of late payments on my account. I am specifically referring to the following details : CAPITAL ONE XXXX This account was NEVER late. The late payment is erroneous. Those payments were made on time. I am requesting that the late payment markings be updated to reflect my accurate payment history. If there is any confusion, I suggest you contact me or CAPITAL ONE customer service. XXXX have already removed this account from their records. There was an error present & they were able to find it. I'm confused about how you've verified it while the other bureaus have removed it. Please correct or remove this from my file. It is inaccurate, erroneous, incomplete, or unverifiable. 

After carefully examining my financial records, I have found that these late payments are either inaccurately reported or were submitted in error. I kindly request that you review my account and, if appropriate, remove the mentioned late payments from my account history.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I received an email from NFCU, alerting me to an unsuccessful external account registration attempt. Subsequently, upon checking my NFCU checking account ( Acct. # XXXX ), I discovered a significant reduction in my balance by {$9800.00}, attributed to unauthorized ACH transfers on the following dates : XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX - ACH transfer of {$2400.00} XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX - ACH transfer of {$2400.00} XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX - ACH transfer of {$2400.00} XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX - ACH transfer of {$2400.00} I promptly reported the fraudulent transfers to NFCU at my local branch in XXXX, CA, where a customer service representative initiated a case with the fraud department. Concerned about the urgency, I emphasized the need for immediate reversal, especially given that the last two transfers occurred only one day prior. The representative assured me that my account would be closed and replaced while the fraud department investigates. 
Despite my efforts and cooperation, a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from NFCU denied my claim, holding me responsible for the full amount. The denial lacked details or additional information. Following their advice, I submitted an NFCU Security Appeal form on XX/XX/XXXX, including information about the XXXX XXXX breach affecting me in XXXX, along with a police report ( Report # XXXX ) filed in XXXX XXXX XXXX 
However, my appeal was subsequently denied due to " lacking new information. '' Despite my pleas, NFCU refused to provide essential details about the transactions, stating they require a subpoena. Unfortunately, obtaining a subpoena is challenging, as NFCU 's headquarters is not in my state, and local authorities claim limited jurisdiction. 
Feeling left in the dark about the situation, I am seeking assistance to compel NFCU 's cooperation, potentially through filing a complaint. I urgently request your support in resolving this matter and appreciate your prompt attention.
