Product: Prepaid card — General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Trouble using the card — Trouble using the card to spend money in a store or online
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
We purchased tires from a XXXX dealership. We then received a prepaid promotional debit card about XXXX month later. We tried unsuccessfully to use online. We then tried a few stores who would not take. XXXX went by and we forgot about it honestly after so many refusals. Then our daughter told us to try the grocery store which we hadnt thought of. We did and they would have taken it but we were XXXX weeks past the expiry date. We didnt realize it expired. We called XXXX, they could or would not help us and referred us to Chase Bank. Chase bank said they would not send another card and eventually the funds would be turned over to the state in which we live ( Missouri ). It could then take up to a year for us to fill out all the forms with the state the get the money back. I find this delay appalling. 
I realize we missed the date. But we take care of our grandchild and just didnt realize it would expire. And after so many nos to use the card we simple put it aside. 
Any help would be appreciated. 
Thank you XXXX

Issue: Trouble using your card — Can't use card to make purchases
Company: Continental Finance Company, LLC
State: RI

Complaint narrative:
My XXXX XXXXXXXX, issued by Continental Finance Company , LLC, was suddenly blocked without any notice by phone, email, or mail. I had a {$0.00} balance and a positive payment history. When I attempted to use the card on XX/XX/year>, it was declined. I called customer service and was told the account was placed on hold and that I was required to participate in a three-way call with my bank ( XXXX ) to verify payments, even though all of my previous payments cleared without any issues. 

At no point was I notified that my account was under review. The representative was unable to clearly explain why this action was taken. Because my card was unusable and no alternative solution was offered, I felt pressured into closing the account, despite having a clean payment history and no evidence of fraud. 

These business practices freezing an account without notice, demanding a conference call with my bank, and offering no clear explanation are extremely concerning. I am requesting confirmation that the account will be reported to all credit bureaus as closed at consumers request, with a {$0.00} balance and no negative or derogatory reporting of any kind.

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

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint because my TransUnion credit report is inaccurately showing late payment information for the following accounts that were fully paid and closed in good standing : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  - XX/XX/XXXX - Closed & Paid - Balance & Past Due : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX - Past Due : {$0.00} Both of these accounts report a past due or late payment history despite showing XXXX balance and paid status. This is contradictory, misleading, and does not reflect the true payment history. Once an account is paid and closed, it should not continue to reflect derogatory information that implies ongoing delinquency. 

Under 15 U.S. Code 1681n and FCRA Section 623 ( a ), furnishers and credit reporting agencies must ensure that information reported is accurate and not misleading. Reporting late or past due on a paid and closed account violates the accuracy provisions of the FCRA because it creates a false impression of delinquency where none exists.

I previously disputed these inaccuracies directly with TransUnion, but the bureaus response did not include proper validation or correction. The so-called verification was merely a repetition of the same inaccurate data without any documentary proof from the creditor. This falls short of the FCRAs requirement for a reasonable reinvestigation and demonstrates TransUnions failure to meet its legal obligations to maintain complete and accurate information.

These errors have negatively impacted my credit reputation and score, misrepresenting my payment history and suggesting I failed to meet obligations that were, in fact, satisfied. The continued reporting of these false delinquencies is unjust, damaging, and contrary to the FCRAs intent to protect consumers from inaccurate credit data.

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

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 and inaccurate information.

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.

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.
