Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Other problem
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Had a secured credit card at Navy Federal. Went over secured credit limit. Remaining balance was decreased with the secured funds but the remainder sat for 9 months before I could handle the situation. The checking account was closed but the savings was still in use for the 9 months. Had transactions during this time. Two weeks ago I started back working wanted to take care of my debts. First check was basically absorbed by this process. Then I made another payment to the balance. With less than 400 left to pay it off the bank takes the remainder of my balance in my account and puts it in the negative. The bank says they have to put a hold on the account for the secured amount because the account still has a balance and if I want it lifted I have to pay off the remaining balance. During the last 9 months my account was open and being used. No hold. Now that I put a direct deposit in the account they put a hold on my funds without notice. They said they just took that secured payment in XXXX of 2022 but it was before that and like I said I have had random deposits go into that account. I want the hold lifted and any payments that was disrupted because of them set right.

TransUnion refuses to abide by the FCRA and remove unverified and unauthorized items from my credit file. This is a Defamation of my character and it is affecting my ability to purchase a home from my family. 

XXXX refuses to abide by the FCRA and remove unverified and unauthorized items from my credit file. This is a Defamation of my character and it is affecting my ability to purchase a home from my family. 

on XX/XX/2022 I sent a letter to both bureaus expressing the fraudulent and unauthorized accounts that are reporting illegally to my credit file, I also asked for them to send me proof of their investigations in which they have failed to do, and I asked for them to send me proof of them validating that the debt that they are claiming I owe, with documents bearing my signature, and they still have not yet done so.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I've started my administration process with Discover Bank. First I sent a debt validation letter and a cease and desist. They did not provide proper information for validation of debt and committed many violations under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I noted all of these violations in a Affidavit of Truth with the exhibits to present the facts of these violations. A Debt Collector is suing me claiming to be representing Discover Bank and stating the claims were initiated by DiscoverBank. According to the FDCPA, a debt collector may not use any false, deceptive, or misleading representation or means in connection with collection of debt.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I purchased a textbook rental for {$110.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted an order to purchase the payoff amount for the textbook for {$100.00}. These two purchases total {$220.00}, which was the full purchase price of the textbook. According to my records, the payoff amount of {$100.00} was already remitted to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. However, on XX/XX/XXXX, the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX attempted to charge my account {$260.00} for this same textbook, which is egregiously erroneous. On XXXX XXXX XXXX  FCR Collection Services sent an email stating that the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is its client and that the email is an attempt to collect a debt and any information obtained will be used for that purpose. 

Between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, FCR Collection Services identified my account number as XXXX. Then, the account number changed. Between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, the company identifies my account number as XXXX. These alterations in identifying my account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is misleading and a possible violation of fair collection practices. For example, if I paid an amount under one account number, FCR Collection Services may turn around and double charge under a different account number. 

According to my present understanding, I can not trust the credibility of FCR Collection Services to settle this disputed amount. Furthermore, I can not trust XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to settle this disputed amount because it attempted to charge {$260.00} in addition to the {$110.00} that I already conveyed to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

Therefore, I request a good faith management of the disputed amount pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

On XXXX XXXX XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer.
