Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I reviewed my credit report and found inaccurate and incomplete reporting by Capital One regarding a closed credit card account ( opened XX/XX/XXXXXXXX  ). The account is reported as Paid, Closed {$620.00} written off with late payments from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, including a charge-off. 

I disputed this information with the credit bureaus and Capital One, requesting documentation such as the original signed agreement and a complete, itemized payment history to verify the accuracy of the alleged delinquency. Despite this, Capital One marked the account as Account previously in dispute investigation complete without providing any supporting documents. 

The reporting contains inconsistencies, such as showing a written-off amount while the balance field is blank. Under FCRA 611, the furnisher is required to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation and provide verification. This did not occur, and the inaccurate information remains on my credit report.

I am requesting that Capital One either provide documented proof of the accuracy of this account or remove the account and all derogatory marks from my credit reports.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations.

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Complaint narrative:
This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you -- credit reporting agency, block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a 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 attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. 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.

Complaint narrative:
My current car lender XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is showing this auto loan account as 60-90 days late in XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX of XXXX. On all 3 credit bureaus reports. This is factually incorrect. The creditor accepted and applied payments each month which means no 60 or 90 day late ever occured. I requested the inaccurate late payments reporting on this account be removed and uploaded the lenders own records of my payments. Despite this they are reporting escalating delinquency to the credit bureaus. This inaccurate reporting is damaging my credit and preventing me from qualifying for a mortgage. I have disputed with all 3 credit bureaus and request the CFPB require the lender and credit bureaus to immediately correct my payment history to reflect on time status for these months as payment was made and accepted.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to dispute any information on my credit report that is incorrect or can not be verified. I am requesting a complete reinvestigation into these bankruptcy entries and removal of any entries that can not be substantiated with accurate documentation.

Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing Returned Payment Fees charged to my Barclays account in XX/XX/year> ( {$29.00} ) and XX/XX/year> ( {$40.00} ). In both cases, the payments were initially marked as Insufficient Funds but were later resubmitted via ACH and successfully processed ( XX/XX/year>XXXX  : {$56.00} credited ; XX/XX/year> : {$57.00} credited ). This proves there was no refusal or failure to pay. 

These fees have also caused increased accrued interest ( XX/XX/year> : {$38.00} + {$6.00} ), which has raised my minimum monthly payment and made it harder to reduce the principal balance. I had informed Barclays about one of the payments before it was processed, requesting it be resubmitted due to temporary circumstances. During this time, I was under a serious medical condition that affected my payment timing, despite my good-faith efforts to meet my obligations.

Complaint narrative:
I deposited a check from my grandparents to purchase my first car and pay bills. My account initially had a {$1500.00} limit, which processed without issue. When I deposited the full amount for the car purchase, Sofi delayed the release date without clear explanation.On XX/XX/XXXX, my account was suddenly restricted without warning. Sofi representatives refused to explain why, were rude on the phone, and gave no written notice. I was told my account is up for closure but not why. My funds remain in my savings account, inaccessible for multiple days.This has caused me to fall behind on bills, risk losing the vehicle purchase, and left my family extremely frustrated. I have called multiple times and only receive the same vague response : Your account is under review, well reach out. No one has contacted me. My account is still technically open, but restricted, with my funds held.
