Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Good Afternoon, I am writing to you as a concerned consumer regarding certain inquiries or " hard inquiries '' on my credit reports that were not performed by me. I would like to respectfully request that steps be taken to remove these inquiries from my reports to the appropriate credit bureaus. 

As a consumer, I have the right to an accurate and truthful credit report under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). This law establishes that credit bureaus must maintain accurate and up-to-date information about consumers, and must only allow legitimate inquiries on credit reports. Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), consumers have the right to protection against the collection of unfair or misleading credit information. 

I would like to stress that I did not authorize or request any of the inquiries in question. These inquiries are not representative of my credit history or my financial interactions. Since these inquiries are not legitimate and are not supported by my consent, I request that they be removed from my credit reports immediately. 

It is essential for me as a consumer to maintain a clean and accurate credit report. These unauthorized inquiries could negatively impact my ability to obtain credit in the future and may undermine my confidence in the credit system. Therefore, I urge the CFPB to take prompt and effective action to address this situation and remove these inquiries from my credit reports. 

The inquiries that I do not make and appear on my credit reports are : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I thank you in advance for your attention and cooperation in this matter. I hope that the CFPB will take the necessary steps to ensure that my rights as a consumer are fulfilled, in accordance with the laws mentioned above. 

I look forward to your prompt response and satisfactory resolution. I appreciate your time and attention to this urgent matter.

Complaint narrative:
I opened an account with Citibank, {$2000.00} limit and if I spend {$4000.00} by XX/XX/XXXX I get an additional XXXX points... So of course the purpose of getting this card is to get the bonus. I spend a {$1000.00} and made a pymnt on XX/XX/XXXX for {$1000.00}, they then put my account on hold until the XX/XX/XXXX to verify the payment is real. So althought it cleared my account to them on XX/XX/XXXX, my acct is frozen and no one is able to clear the hold until XX/XX/XXXX. I spent the {$1000.00} I had, made a {$980.00} pymnt XX/XX/XXXX, again the money has cleared and citibank has my account is on hold again. I must spend {$4000.00} by XX/XX/XXXX for bonus.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
I had a bad stay at an XXXX  vacation rental ( extremely unsafe environment and harassment from the host so we had to leave early ) and asked for refund. They initially ignored my request and so I disputed the charges with my Capital One card. 

After reviewing the case, XXXX agreed I was due a full refund and so issued my refund back to the Capital One card I paid with. Capital One refuses to apply the refund to my account. XXXX confirmed they issued the refunds on XX/XX/XXXX and provided payment codes as proof. Even after providing the payment codes to Capital One, they refuse to apply the {$1700.00} refund back to my card and so have effectively stolen that money from me. I need assistance from the CFPB to get Capital One to apply the money XXXX has given them back to my account instead of stealing it. 

XXXX has been very helpful here. Capital One has NOT. I have filed multiple disputes on the charges to Capital One, and sent multiple correspondences to them that go completely ignored. They return to me generic form letters that do not address my issue at all.
