Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023 approximately XXXX dollars was used at a XXXX and later a XXXX on a stolen US Bank credit card after thieves had taken my hidden phone and wallet after breaking into my car. US Bank only sent a text trying to confirm the purchases, despite it being way over my credit limit. Later after calling to claim the purchases as fraud they then told me they marked it as fraudulent and debited the money back to be. Then without sending an email, text, or call reversed the decision and charged me that fraudulent amount on XX/XX/2023. I appealed the decision on XX/XX/2023 and over the phone on XX/XX/2023 but they denied my appeal because I hadn't filed a police report nor an insurance claim on the broken car window ( which I explained would've increased my insurance and was cheaper to pay out of pocket ... I also have the reciept for the new car window ), despite the constumer service rep agreeing on the phone that the spending on the card was out of character for my spending history. The rep spent 2 minutes determining her decision and based it solely off not having the police report/insurance claim, there was no attempt to check the signature at the store nor look into previous spending habits. I offered to demonstrate that XXXX XXXX XXXX had deemed the spending on my other card as fraudulent but that attempt was ignored. I have reciepts for insurance filed on my stolen phone, reciepts on the broken car window, and clearly the merchant should have a wrong signature used at the store but none of these were used to verify my claim. I was charged the fraudalent amount without any attempt to reach me electronically.

Complaint narrative:
Experian has violated my rights as a consumer for too long which has increased my stress levels to unhealthy measures because I have disputed unverifiable and inaccurate information a few different times already. Experian is not acknowledging or attempting to fix any errors which has become extremely problematic for me because I am not able to be approved for housing for my family and I. I disputed the accuracy of this account because the date of last activity is inaccurate, the date of last payment is inaccurate and now Experian is refusing to mark this account ( XXXX ) as being disputed which is also another violation of my rights according to the FCRA. My letters were received on XX/XX/2023 and XX/XX/2023. I have attached my previous letters along with the receipts and new credit report showing these inaccuracies still being reported along with showing how Experian failed to mark this account as disputed within 30 days of my original letter ( s ).
