Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
In the fall of XXXX, I lost my XXXX  so on XX/XX/XXXX I ordered refurbished XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX  on the Best Buy website, using my Best Buy Citi card to complete the purchase. I was not satisfied with the condition they came in so the day after I received them, XX/XX/XXXX, I went into the Best Buy near me and exchanged the refurbished headphones for brand new XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX. I owed a balance of {$33.00} for the difference in price of which I paid for using a mastercard ( not my best buy citi card ). I found my XXXX  a month later and went into the same Best Buy store near me, on XX/XX/XXXX, and asked them to return the headphones. This was past their return window of 14 days however, they made an exception and returned the product. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a refund of {$33.00} to my XXXX but I have not received the refund of {$160.00} that I am owed to my Best Buy Citi card. 

I have opened at least XXXX disputes with Citi card and on the most recent dispute, I submitted a letter similar to this XXXX and included attachments of the XXXX receipts involved as well as screenshots of my call log to show that I did contact the best buy store that this took place as well as a screenshot of a voicemail transcription from a best buy employee confirming that they contacted their higher up department and a credit was sent to my citi card. I also included bank statements of my Citi card showing that no credit was given for the product that was returned. 

Every dispute I submitted to Citi has been denied including the most recent one with all of the proof I provided to them. My most recent call with them took place on XX/XX/XXXX after I learned that my dispute was denied, I asked for the call to be escalated and was told there was no one else I could speak to, the woman on the phone told me they would send the dispute department a letter asking them to look at all the documentation I sent to them to which I asked her if they did not look at the paperwork in the first place. I have not received any contact or letters with an update. 

I have called Best Buy Citi bank on : XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX

Issue: Closing on a mortgage — Changes in loan terms during or after closing
Company: eMortgage Funding LLC
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
I was contacted by XXXX XXXX working under XXXX XXXX with emortage funding llc. saying he could save me about XXXX  XXXX and I would not have to pay a mortgage for XXXX months. I explained I did not have the money for an appraisal. He said he would pay {$400.00} if I pay {$230.00} on my XX/XX/XXXX payday. I gave him my card. They stole {$630.00} dollars from my account. XXXX they took {$230.00} on XX/XX/XXXX ( early causing overdrafts ). Then on XX/XX/XXXX they took another {$400.00}. I contacted XXXX who stated someone accidently charged me and he had already processed a refund. I waited a few days and then inquired. He acted confused and assured me it had been issued and reminded me of the money I was about to save. 

I also asked him why the mortgage information was not reflecting what he had told me via phone. He told me when I sign the docs he will be able to give me the proper discounts we discussed. I threatened to not close if I did not get my refund or docs. Then he sent me a screenshot of a mortgage page saying my new mortgage will be {$1600.00}. This was nowhere near a {$200.00} discount but I would have taken it. 

The notary came on XXXX and the documents showed I would have a mortgage payment of {$1700.00}, only a {$22.00} dollars savings. I immediately contacted XXXX and he told me the notary does not have the updated documents. The notary confirmed that has happened before but since I was losing trust I told him I would not let her leave until the new documents came to my email. He told he was with his son and I could rescind if I didn't get the documents in XXXX  days. Meanwhile if I backed out now I would be a month behind on my mortgage. 

I trusted him again. He sent me over a screenshot with my name on it saying my mortgage would be {$1600.00}. It looked photoshopped. We began to argue as I realized this was a bait and switch. I got my mortgage statement today and it was all a lie. My mortgage is {$1700.00}. I still have not gotten a refund for the money they stole. No one will return my calls or answer the phone. I have proof.

Company: Clark County Collection Service
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
I am felling this complaint to formally report Clark county collection services has willfully violated both the fair debt collection practices Act FDCPA and the Fair Credit report Act FCRA and their attempt to collect an alleged debt. Despite multiple attempts on my part to resolve or dispute the matter, the agency has demonstrated non-compliance with federal consumer protection laws and the following ways. 
1. FAILURE TO PROVIDE PROPER DEBT VALIDATION. 
Upon initial contact, I submitted a timely rating request for debt validation as provided for under {$15.00} US code 1692 g of the FDCPA. Clark county collections services has failed to furnish any meaningful verification, such as proof of the original debt, the original creditor 's name, or evidence that I owe the alleged amount 2. INACCURATE CREDIT REPORTING. 
Without validating the debt, the agency reported or continues to report this debt to one or more credit reporting agencies. This is a direct violation of the FCRA, which requires that all information furnished to credit bureaus be accurate and verifiable. It also violates section 623 of the FCRA regarding the duty to correct and update information. 
XXXX. CONTINUED COLLECTION EFFORTS AFTER DISPUTE. 
Even after disputing the debt in writing, Clark County Collection Services continued to pursue collection activity, which is a clear violation of FDCPA. 
This behavior is harassing, deceptive, and unlawful.

Complaint narrative:
I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!
