Consumer complaint received 2023-01-13 00:00:00
Product: Credit card or prepaid card — Store credit card
Issue: Problem when making payments — You never received your bill or did not know a payment was due
Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I applied for what was advertised as a " payment plan '' on a monitor I bought on XXXX. It was actually a credit card through TD bank I found out after. Very confusing advertising, wouldn't of applied if I had known. Anyway I bought the monitor for a total of {$510.00}. The payments were supposed to be equal monthly payments for 24 months interest free at {$21.00}. I never received anything after that, no bill or card from them. I got a call on Monday, XX/XX/2023 from what was labeled as TD bank. It was marked as spam so I called TD banks XXXX number from their website back. Spoke with a representative and explained the situation. We reported the card lost/stolen and she updated me email address to I would get updates. I tried to make a payment of {$64.00}, she said I had to make XXXX and XXXX payment plus the late fee to bring it up to date then they could waive the late fee. She then said she couldn't take it because the account # was blocked when we reported it lost and to call back. I have been trying for over an hour to get a hold of someone today XX/XX/2023. I keep getting transferred saying it the wrong place in TD bank and they will transfer me to the correct place. I have been now transferred 7 times with about 10+ hold times everytime. I still do not have a statement or card and now I can't even get to the right department. This shouldn't be that hard. I need someone to help because I do not have time to do this and they should be sending out statements properly and cards. There should be some process for handling situations like this because I am sure I am not the first. It is not fair to me that I am forced to sit here on the phone for HOURS trying to fix this because they do not have a proper process in place. It either sit here or hang up and wait for the new card that will hopefully arrive this time so I can make a payment before it is reported to the credit bureaus. I am really regretting doing the 24 months plan. I also think they need to update the discription of applying to let the borrower know that this isn't just a plan it's an actual CREDIT CARD not just XXXX XXXX... .it 's very deceptive and states no where about it being a credit card even in the fine print. To me it looks like a one time loan.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting the removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days, and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 3-4 months.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/23, I contacted Bank of America to dispute a transaction in my business checking account. The bank sent me an Unauthorized Return Form to complete and send by email or fax. I asked for a more secure method to transmit this data as the form requires financial and personally identifiable information. The bank does not have an exception policy and will not process my request unless I transmit my data in the clear via email or fax. I am uncomfortable with using an unsecured means to transfer information.
