Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: DE

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am writing to delete the following information on my credit report. The following items are listed in the report. I am a victim of identity theft. The charges made on the account were not mine. The items need to be deleted as they are inaccurate items on my credit report. The theft of my identity was reported to the federal Trade Commission. Also, I have an enclosed copy of the Federal Trade Commission id-entity theft affidavit. Please find it in your best interest to delete the items.

I would like to emphasize the following legal obligations under the FCRA : Under 1681b, a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only under specific circumstances, including " In response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue such an order, or a subpoena issued in connection with proceedings before a Federal grand jury. '' This provision strictly limits when my consumer report can be furnished, and I do not believe any of these circumstances apply in this case.

Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), credit bureaus must conduct a " reasonable reinvestigation '' upon receiving notice of a consumer dispute. I am formally notifying you of this dispute, and I expect a thorough and reasonable reinvestigation of all items I've identified.

15 U.S. Code 1681b outlines the permissible purposes of consumer reports, including conditions for furnishing and using consumer reports for employment purposes. I do not believe any of these permissible purposes apply to the disputed items on my report.

15 U.S. Code $ 1681c-2 a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any.

information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt.

15 U.S. Code 1681 Section B ( i ) - Requirements relating to reinsertion of previously deleted material - If a consumer reporting agency removes information from someone's credit file based on the requirements in the preceding section ( A ), the agency can not re-add or reinsert that previously deleted information back into the person 's file unless the entity that originally provided that information certifies that it is complete and accurate.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: OK

Complaint narrative:
Summary of Issue : I scheduled a {$300.00} credit card payment to Capital One on XX/XX/XXXX, using my Capital One checking account. At the time, I had over {$1900.00} in my account, and I successfully made other payments to XXXX XXXX and XXXX from the same account on the same day. 

Capital One did not attempt to debit the {$300.00} until XX/XX/XXXX, at which point my balance had dropped below that amount. The payment failed yet I received no notification, no record of the failed transaction, and no opportunity to correct it before being penalized. 

Then on XX/XX/XXXX, Capital One approved a {$65.00} charge to the same credit card, even though the account was already over the limit due to the missed payment. Again, no alert or warning was issued. 

I only found out I was over my credit limit when I logged in on XX/XX/XXXX and saw my credit card balance was {$340.00} {$44.00} over the limit. 

At no point did Capital One notify me ( by app, email, or phone ) about : The failed payment The over-limit status A risk of a late payment Capital One delayed processing a scheduled payment, failed to communicate the failure, then continued authorizing charges. I acted in good faith with funds available at the time of scheduling Capital One 's internal systems and delays directly caused this issue.
