Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: Self Financial Inc.
State: NH

Complaint narrative:
My secured credit card with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX was closed and charged-off in XXXX. Even though the account was closed, the company continued to add monthly late payment fees of {$15.00} and statement interest charges between {$0.00} {$0.00} every single month. These charges showed up consistently on the same dateslate fees on the XXXX of each month and interest on the XXXX. 

These fees continued throughout XXXX, all of XXXX, all of XXXX, and into XXXX despite the account not being active. The company kept updating the account as if new late payments were happening, which inflated the past-due balance and caused ongoing negative reporting. 

I reviewed my credit report and my Self account history, which both show these repeated fees long after closure. I contacted the company and requested an explanation of why fees and interest were still being added after the charge-off date, along with a corrected accounting of my true balance. They did not provide this information or any clear justification for the post-closure charges.

Complaint narrative:
This reported late payment is the result of a systematic billing error by the company, not a reflection of my excellent payment history. I have always had my payments on autopay and was never late. The company failed to comply with 15 U.S.C. 1666b, as they did not send the required periodic statement at least XXXX  days before the payment due date. I have requested proof of this and it has not been provided. This error has caused significant harm to my credit and is unfair, illegal, and incorrect. I demand that this late payment be immediately removed from my consumer report.

I am filing this complaint because the credit bureau has not properly investigated the account I disputed. I asked them to verify it with real documentation from the original creditor, but they only sent me a generic response without proof.

I know this account is being reported inaccurately, and the bureau has not shown any evidence that it belongs to me or that the information is correct. If they can not provide actual validation, the account should not remain on my report.

I am simply asking for a real reinvestigation or the deletion of any information they can not verify. XXXX XXXX XXXX

The following accounts have accessed or reported on my credit profile without my consent, which constitutes a clear violation of this provision : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX Account XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX. Reporting of Obsolete Information Violation of 15 USC 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ), no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes, which antedates the report by more than seven years.

3. Right to Privacy Section 602 ( A ) of the FCRA The FCRA, under Section 602 ( A ), clearly states that the consumer has a right to privacy with respect to the disclosure of their personal information.
