Complaint narrative:
They are reporting multiple fraudulent trade lines on my account. I am entitled to a credit report with maximum accuracy so when I disputed this fraudulent Information they validated the debt as accurate illegally. Debt validation can not just be the original creditor telling them yes its their debt. This agency essentially with NO evidence validated fraudulent debt. Every-time this fraudulent debt is Verified as accurate which it is not a dispute will be filed with no exceptions. I have contacted an attorney and have been advised to file this report and dispute again. Failure to correct my report will result in a lawsuit for damages.

Company: Block, Inc.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
I have a cash app account and a cash app debit card. I took out a loan using the " borrow '' feature. It was a small amount. After I used the borrow feature, I got hit by a car on XX/XX/XXXX. The loan was not yet due. ( I have medical reports from the ER, a doctor who took me off work until further notice and an attorney on the case. ) I received my paycheck on the XXXX but it was considerably lower than I had expected, and I had to use all of my accumulated sick hrs to receive the amount that I did. I called cash app and spoke with them over their support platform to request an extension due to unforseen emergency circumstances. 

Cash app not only refused to even speak with me or transfer me to someone who could speak to me, but they informed me that regulatory laws prohibit cash app from speaking to me about my account through any method except email and that the expected wait time is anywhere between 30 and 90 days. 

They asked for the best email to reach me. ( They asked me to verify my account at the beginning, but didn't have my contact info? ) So I gave them my email and protested that such a wait time is not only irresponsible, but unprofessional. ( I have yet to hear from them ) meanwhile, I have no income coming in, my attorney has not yet settled the claim, my XXXX application is still pending and now they have tacked on late fees in a rather predatory fashion. ( I spoke to them BEFORE any payments were due, ) Cash app has completely ignored every attempt at communication. When I asked for their company information, they refused to give it to me. I asked for their corporate office address and phone number and they told me they are not allowed to provide that information. 

Additionally, they falsely advertise that their cash app debit card is a legitimate debit card and it turns out, it's not a legitimate debit card on any legal ground. It's a prepaid card. That's Not the same thing. It's false advertising.
