Im extremely frustrated with Cash App because Ive been trying to order a card for nearly a year now, and the issue still hasnt been resolved. Ive spoken to multiple support representatives and even managers, but no one has been able to help me. Each time I reach out, Im told the same vague response that I may be able to order a card in the future. Thats clearly not true, because Ive been waiting patiently for months with no progress or solution. Its incredibly disappointing and unprofessional that after all this time, I still cant access such a basic feature

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information reported on my credit report concerning a charge-off. Below are the details of the account in question : Creditor Name : [ XXXX XXXX XXXX  ] Account Number : [ XXXX ] Date of Charge-Off : [ XX/XX/2022 It has come to my attention that this charge-off is being reported repeatedly monthly, which is incorrect. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), negative information such as a charge-off should be reported only once, reflecting the date it was charged off. Under the FCRA, credit reporting agencies are required to ensure the accuracy of the information they provide ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). The continuous monthly reporting of this charge-off misrepresents my payment history and negatively impacts my credit score. Furthermore, the statute of limitations for reporting a charge-off is XXXX years from the date of the initial delinquency that led to the charge-off ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c ( a ) ( 4 ) ). Repeatedly reporting this charge-off as a new event each month does not reflect the statute of limitations and is therefore improper.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Complaint Company : Capital One Product : Credit card or prepaid card Issue : Dispute process not handled properly Account Ending : XXXX Date : XX/XX/year> Details : Im filing this complaint regarding Capital Ones mishandling of three transaction disputes I filed on XX/XX/year>. Each claim was acknowledged by Capital One, but I was incorrectly informed that temporary credits would be applied while investigations were underway. I later learned this was not true. Ive also had difficulty getting assistance via the app or chat. Phone support is not always an option due to court obligations. 

Here are the claims in question : Claim # XXXX {$440.00} : I was assured this large transaction would be credited while the dispute was under review. No credit was issued, and follow-up attempts for clarification were met with conflicting information. 
Claim # XXXX {$40.00} ( XXXX ) : I returned merchandise to XXXX and never received a refund. XXXX claimed they didnt receive the items. Unfortunately, I lost the return receipt. Despite this, I acted in good faith and followed all return instructions. 
Claim # XXXX {$100.00} XXXX XXXX ) : I purchased a birthday gift for a friend, but the wrong item was sent. Though my friend decided to keep the bag, it was not the item I originally ordered. I submitted a dispute for the error, but again, no credit was issued, and I was not given fair consideration. 

Capital Ones internal communication has been inconsistent, misleading, and has caused confusion and financial stress. I feel the dispute process has not been handled in compliance with federal consumer protections. 

I am requesting CFPBs assistance to ensure these claims are investigated fairly, and that appropriate temporary credits and outcomes are applied based on the evidence and good-faith actions on my part.
