Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally file a complaint against EnerBank USA regarding a dispute over a home improvement loan. 
Summary of the Issue : I entered into a loan agreement with EnerBank on XX/XX/XXXX to finance a home improvement project. The loan was presented with terms that included [ e.g., a 12-month no-interest promotional period / specific payment schedule / disbursement agreement ]. However, I have encountered several issues that I believe constitute unfair or deceptive practices : 1. [ Incorrect Interest Charges ] Despite making payments the interest rate on the statement is XXXX  %, but on the statement, it appears to be 100 %. I requested this information in XX/XX/XXXX. 
2. [ Lack of Transparency and Documentation ] I requested a detailed breakdown of charges and payment history multiple times, but EnerBank failed to provide clear, itemized statements or documentation, making it impossible to verify the accuracy of the charges. Ive paid so far in XXXX  months of payments totaling {$8000.00}. The monthly payment is XXXX that started XX/XX/XXXX only totals to {$6800.00}. The original principal balance was {$14000.00}, but the statement balance is still {$14000.00}. Ive requested reconciliation statement, but the statement is indicating that all payments has applied only to the interest and nothing toward the principal. The interest rate on the statement is XXXX  %, but on the statement, it appears to be 100 %. I tried to sign in the customer portal to retrieve my original load agreement document, but there is no information available. Recently requested reconciliation accounting information XX/XX/XXXX and received statement recently. 
3. [ Poor Customer Service ] Attempts to resolve this matter through EnerBanks customer service have been unsuccessful. I have encountered difficulty with customer service providing me with explanation of my long balance. They keep saying its {$14000.00}, but Ive paid {$8000.00} so far. The responses are incomplete or misleading. 

I have attached relevant documentation, including payment records, email correspondence, and loan terms. 
________________________________________ I believe EnerBank has violated my rights under the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) and/or engaged in practices that may constitute unfair or deceptive acts or practices ( UDAP ). 
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response and resolution. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Electronic communications — Frequent or repeated messages
Company: Halsted Financial Services, LLC.
State: MN

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am formally disputing the alleged debt that Debt Halsted has reported to my credit file.

Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 15 U.S.C. 1692g, I am requesting full validation of this debt, as I have never entered into any contractual agreement with the alleged creditor that would obligate me to this debt.

Furthermore, it has come to my attention that the alleged creditor engages in securitization practices, meaning this debt may have been bundled, sold, or otherwise transferred to third parties, voiding any original obligation. If this is the case, I demand a full disclosure of all transactions related to this alleged account, including the sale, securitization, and any profits generated from it. 
To validate this alleged debt, I require the following documentation : Proof of Ownership A signed contract between myself and the original creditor proving that I agreed to this debt under the terms you are attempting to collect. Without my explicit consent, no debt obligation exists.

Chain of Title & Assignment Full documentation proving the lawful transfer of this alleged debt from the original creditor to your agency, including the purchase agreement, bill of sale, and all assignments. This must include a flow agreement and transfer of title proving your standing to collect. 
Original Creditor Agreement A complete copy of the original contract, including the terms and conditions that apply to this alleged debt. If the original agreement contains an arbitration clause, then the proper venue for dispute resolution is arbitrationnot third-party debt collection. 
Full Accounting Records A detailed, itemized breakdown of the alleged debt, including principal, interest, fees, and all transactions associated with this account. 
Proof of Lawful Collection Authority Evidence that your company is legally licensed to collect debts in my state and that my private information was lawfully transferred to your agency under 15 U.S.C.

1692b ( 2 ), which prohibits unauthorized disclosure of consumer financial details.

Until you provide all of the above-requested documentation, I do not recognize any obligation to this alleged debt. Under 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ), you must immediately cease all collection efforts, remove any negative reporting from my credit file, and confirm in writing that no further action will be taken until full validation is provided.

Should you fail to comply with this request within 30 days, I will escalate this matter to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and my state Attorney Generals Office for investigation and enforcement actions. 
All responses must be sent in writing to the address listed above. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
