Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute twice with Experian, and they came back twice within XXXX hours telling me they have verified all information with the creditor in question. 

The creditor of the auto loan never sent us a bill or contacted us in any shape or form on our " late '' payment, the final payment for our car, which we assumed we were gon na receive our title and lien for, because no bill came in nearing the end of the term. I have already filed a complaint with XXXX XXXX XXXX on their negligence and deflection of responsibility.

Experian did not go through proper procedure of verifying anything. According to 15 U.S. Code 1681, i think i should get a fair chance to state my case rather than the discriminatory response i got back from Experian. 

XXXX violated 15 U.S. Code 1666b which states that i am entitled to my billing information, including anything late, and yet i did not get a single drop of information from XXXX. not a phone call, not a piece of mail, not even an email.

Consumer complaint received 2023-12-08 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I got a credit card with Discover mainly because of their intro 0 % APR for 21 months. I then completed a transfer balance that I plan on paying down soon. At some point in the first few months with the card I requested two cash advances for a total of {$240.00}. Meanwhile, I've made minimum payments every month for a total of {$1100.00} so far in about 10 months. It made sense to me that the payments were also going to pay down the cash advance balance, but they didn't. I have been charged interest on that {$240.00} for about six months. When I called to complain a Discover representative told me that payments should go towards the balances with the highest APR, so if my intro APR is 0 %, the payments should have gone to the cash advance balance. They simply apologized, said it was how the system was set up, and told me I have to make extra payments to pay down my cash advance balance. This seems like a way for Discover to charge interest fees to unsuspected customers.
