Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
My account was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. 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. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment to be updated.

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.

Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

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!

Update the late payments from my consumer reports

Even when I cancel my debit card and order a new one, they somehow find a way to get the card number. I have tried several times to cancel my subscription on the site but they give absolutely no option to cancel with them. They have no phone number and do not respond to emails. I read dozens of reviews since then of hundred of people going through the same thing. This company will not let you cancel and will always find a way to get your banking information..

Company: OneMain Finance Corporation
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Formal complaint regarding harassment, Hidden Loan Terms, and Unexplained Fees. I have serious concerns and dissatisfaction with the practices used by One Main Financial in processing my loan. Pay off loan current due amount versus pay off amount with hidden forbearance fees. I experienced persistent phone harassment from One Main representatives, which pressured me into agreeing to a loan I felt forced into accepting. Told by branch manager ( XXXX XXXX ), location that they we're doing me a favor by helping me out. Once I entered into this agreement, I learned of critical loan terms, including the forbearance structure, which were hidden from me. I am also facing a significant amount of unexplained interest fees that i was not aware would be applied after paying what I understood to be the final balance. When I agreed to the loan under the stress of constant phone calls, I did so under the assumption that all terms and fees would be transparently disclosed. Unfortunately, it was only after paying what was communicated to me as the remaining balance that I was informed of XXXX in additional interest fees. This practice, coupled with the hidden forbearance structure, feels deceptive and predatory.
