Complaint narrative:
When making a payment online and bringing account current, I noticed the past due amount and the total due amounts were different. I called Global Lending Services and was transferred to 3 different people, and then was told some outstanding fees for almost {$300.00} were from a repossession in XX/XX/2022. When the truck was repossessed in XX/XX/2022 we paid all amounts due at the time and were told our account was current. Since then we have made payments on the phone with many different agents and were never told about these fees, the amounts or any information.

I disputed with my bank and they said I'm not allowed. Payfare XXXX XXXX is holding on to my money and not allowing me to dispute the charge. They also charged me {$5.00} for a replacement card to then tell me no disputes!

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute a late payment entry that has appeared on my credit report. The report indicates a late payment in my credit report, which I strongly believe is erroneous and not verified. Throughout my financial history with the financial agencies I am doing business with, I have consistently met all payment deadlines without fail. Therefore, the presence of this late payment is undoubtedly a result of a billing error on the part of the creditor. I request a thorough investigation into this matter to verify the accuracy of the reported late payment and urge for its prompt correction. It is imperative that such inaccuracies are rectified swiftly, as they impact my financial standing and credibility. I have contacted the financial agencies in the last more than 30 days to seek clarification but I got no response because this is erroneously reported for they have provided NO PROOF that there was a REAL late payment. Your immediate attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.

Complaint narrative:
There is a charge on my AMEX account. AMEX has confirmed that the merchant can not identify my name, email, or billing address. I have repeatedly asked AMEX to remove this charge and AMEX is refusing to reverse a charge on my credit card for which I have received NO services/goods from the so-called merchant. When I called AMEX to dispute the charge, AMEX asked me discriminatory questions about my background. This has nothing to do with the improper charge on my AMEX account. AMEX should not discriminate against minorities.
