Company: FIRST PORTFOLIO SERVICING INC

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX a charge for {$110.00} came through my XXXX XXXX checking account from a merchant ID XXXXXXXX. I did not authorize this charge and I learned it came through as an ACH withdrawal. 
I disputed the charge on XXXX : dispute ID XXXX for account ending in XXXX. 
The dispute was resolved in my favor with the money being returned to my account. 
To ensure that no future authorizations would occur I contacted the company asking to speak with their fraud department. My customer service agent would not transfer me or escalate the complaint I was bringing for the reason that I do not have an account with the company ... and yet they have the account information for my bank. I am not a customer of this merchant yet they have the ability to withdraw money fraudulently from my checking account. They would not comply with my request that any authorizations be revoked.

Company: FIRST CITIZENS BANCSHARES, INC.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
My loan matured XX/XX/2023. It took First Citizens bank 6 months to complete the modification. During this time I continued to make monthly payments. First Citizens failed to complete the modification in a timely manner causing my account with them to show delinquent. I also spoke with XXXX XXXX regarding the delay as well as the late charges assessed to me. He stated that he showed that I was current at the time of maturity and that I continued to make monthly payments during the extensive amount of time it took them to complete the modification. As of XX/XX/2023 First Citizens Bank still had not updated my account. I received my monthly statement XX/XX/2023 showing that nothing was due. In reviewing the statement it showed that First Citizens took a portion of my last payment and applied it to late charges. XXXX XXXX stated that those late charges would be waived. I submitted a credit bureau correction and received a letter from First Citizens stating that their records were accurate and no correction would be made. It was of no fault of mine that it took First Citizens 6 months to complete the modification. They had everything needed by XX/XX/2023. During that period I continued to make payments each month in a timely manner.

Complaint narrative:
FOLLOW UP. I FILED A COMPLAINT 30 DAYS AGO STILL NO RESULT. THIS IS UNDER FEDERAL LAW, 
YOU HAVE 30 DAYS TO COMPLETE YOUR INVESTIGATION. THESE NEGATIVE ITEMS ARE HIGHLY DAMAGING MY CREDIT REPORT AND CREDITWORTHINESS. 


On XXXX, I wrote to you requesting an investigation into items that I believed were fraud, 
inaccurate, and falsely reporting. To this date only response that I have received was computergenerated letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your 
opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a 
stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I 
believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.
I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint 
with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.
I further remind you that, as in White v. Experian Information Solutions, 993 F. Supp. 2d 1154 - Dist. 
Court, (CD California XXXX); you may be liable for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) by 
recklessly failing to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the accurate reporting of debts discharged 
in bankruptcy and by refusing to adequately investigate consumer disputes regarding the status of 
discharged accounts.
I have requested that all NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS provide proof 
of alleged items. I request to be provided with specifically the original application, contract, note, or 
another instrument bearing my signature.
In addition, any the contract signed between NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT 
COLLECTORS & the original creditor, notarized and sworn under penalty and perjury NON CREDITORS, 
COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS ability to collect this alleged debt.
I request this under 15 U.S. Code  1692g - Validation of debts. If information is not provided or the 
false reporting isnt removed; as in Wenger v. Trans Union Corp., No. 95-6445 (C.D.Cal. XXXX XXXX XXXX), 
you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 
100% accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is 
completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be reinvestigated.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
Last night, ( XX/XX/23 ), I tried to use my credit card to make a payment to someone for household goods. The payment was denied. This morning I tried again. At first the payment went through and everything was fine, but then PayPal reversed the payment. And then I received a notice that my account was permanently restricted, and that I could no longer use it. I have no idea why. 

I tried to find out why, but kept getting sent back to the same page that says my account is restricted and I can no longer use it. There is no way on the website that I can find out why my account was restricted, and no way to dispute it. I've had this account for over 20 years. 

I currently have some money in my account that they won't release for up to 180 days. I need that money! One of the reasons I was trying to make a payment with my credit card, is because I need a furnace, because mine is broken. My house is very cold right now! There's some other items that I need for my home that were included in the payment I was trying to make, which was {$3600.00}. I was trying to use my credit card, because I don't have that amount in my checking account. 


Thank you, XXXX XXXX PayPal email : XXXX XXXX
