Company: Avant Holding Company, Inc.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against Avant Bank regarding an unauthorized charge that appeared on my Avant credit card, which has resulted in unjustified financial and credit reporting consequences. This issue is impacting my credit score at a critical time, as I am currently in the process of buying a home. 

I initially applied for the Avant credit card based on a recommendation that it would improve my credit profile. The card has a relatively low limit of {$300.00}. I paid off my balance in full and maintained a XXXX balance, with no intent to use the card again. 

However, last month, I noticed an unauthorized charge on my card. In response, I immediately filed a dispute with Avant, as I had not made this transaction. Despite my dispute, Avant continued to attempt to charge me for this unauthorized amount, and they have since reported a late payment on my credit report. 

As a result of XXXX handling of this dispute, my credit score is negatively affected. I have worked diligently to maintain a strong credit profile, with no late payments on other cards, and I can not afford this damage to my creditworthiness, especially while securing a mortgage for my new home. 

I believe Avant is engaging in bad faith by reporting a late payment related to a fraudulent charge. I am also concerned about interest or late fees associated with this disputed charge, as I had no outstanding balance and should not be held responsible for unauthorized transactions.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report. 

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and may be the result of identity theft or other illegal activities. Attempting to enforce these fraudulent accounts is unlawful. I request that you expedite your investigation to prevent further harm, losses, or damages that I may suffer as a victim of identity theft. 

Moreover, under the Fair Credit Billing Act, my right to privacy has been violated, and this breach infringes upon my rights as outlined in The Privacy Act of 1974. Removing the inaccurate and fraudulent information from my credit report will help restore my privacy and prevent further violations.

So I recently had fraudulent charges on my account which was minor at first and Bank of America advised me to get a new card but could keep the same bank account. A few weeks later I noticed more fraudulent charges totaling XXXX gone within 2 days.

Ive tried contacting the merchant and nothing no response so I left it up to Bank of America to recover my funds and they denied my claim. Since then I try to use my new card and I get a notification asking if I attempted this purchase but where was this when someone took XXXX XXXX dollars from me?!!!!! I need help recovering these funds but they denied my claim with a basic explanation. Seems like the didnt even research and now I dont know what to do.
