Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute a bill I received for services dated [ Date of Service ]. I was enrolled in the XXXX for XXXX Babies ( XXXX ) program during this time, which should have covered the charges in question.

I have attached documentation, including a copy of my policy and EOB, for your review. 
Under FCRA ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ), I have the right to dispute inaccurate or outdated information on my credit report. I request that this account be promptly removed from my credit file. As of XXXX, medical debts are no longer permitted to be reported on credit reports. This regulation ensures that medical debts do not unfairly impact consumers credit scores.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: IL

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 each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I have had a loan with capital one since XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$38000.00} with a loan term of XXXX  months. My payments are {$820.00} monthly and my interest is at a 16.82 %. I have never been late on any payment up to date. XX/XX/XXXX I was discriminated against at my job and because of that I was fired. I called Capital One right after the holidays to see what we could work out. I was informed that they do not have a hardship program to help protect people in this situation. They offered to extend my grace period but because I am still trying to figure my situation out I couldnt guarantee to have my payment by the end of XXXX and this option wouldve cost me an added few XXXX dollars more on top of what I already pay. So they offered me a second option, I was told that they could extend the maturity of my loan and the payment for XXXX would be moved to the end of my loan to be paid and I could start fresh in XXXX with the payments because I had never been late on a payment and they would forgive the late fee because of me never being late on a payment. This option would not cost me any added fees. The only condition would be that I had to call once the payment was actually late. To which I agreed to do. Today XX/XX/XXXX I called Capital One again and spoke to XXXX explained the situation and what I was told and he basically said that the only option they could do was the grace period extension with a partial payment. I asked to speak to the supervisor because I felt he didnt understand what I needed. So he connected me to XXXX who identified herself as his supervisor. She too said the only option they had was the extended grace period and there was nothing they can do to change that. That I would have to contact case management which she connected me too. This person I never got the name because I was truly very upset and forgot to ask. But she basically said the same thing as the others. All they can offer was more interest collection on the loan which I feel isnt fair. Why would a company whom I have been working with to make sure my payments are on time every month doesnt have anything to protect people in this type of predicament. Why lie and say you had a second option and then turn around and say that the only option I have while being unemployed is to add more money to the loan. I am complaining because I will never again deal with this company ever again and people need to be aware.
