Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX issued a credit card under my SS # on XX/XX/15. I would have been XXXX old at the time. I did not apply for this card and was not even old enough to legally have a credit card. XXXX XXXX did not perform their due diligence when approving this card. XXXX XXXX then sold the debt to Portfolio Recovery Associates. I have contacted them on 2 occasions to file a dispute and advised them of my birthday and the situation. All they keep doing is responding by providing me with the account information from XXXX XXXX as the seller. This is not a valid debt. This all started due to the negligence of XXXX XXXX. They will not help since the sold the debt and Portfolio Recovery Associates is ignoring the fact that I was XXXX old when the card was taken out. They even confirmed with me that the date of birth on the account was not mine. This needs to be resolved and has been going on for months. All they have to do is match up my social with my birthday and they can see that I can not possibly be legally liable for this debt.

Complaint narrative:
Hello I had water damage, and the insurance paid the claim. I signed the insurance check over to PHH for the repairs. The work has been completed now PHH will not release the funds of the check I signed over for the cost of the repairs. The contractor did the work, and I do not have the money to pay, and PHH is holding the money. I call PHH and get put on hold, with no payment to the contractor. This keeps me up at night. 
Thank you for your help.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX notified me that a deposit I made was being held and my account has went to the security team. Upon contacting them the same day I was advised I was given a check that may not clear and my account was on hold. After contacting the check issuer my Employer I was advised they issued a check to a closed account and needed to correct the issue and also sent a letter explaining the mix-up. I have been an NFC customer since XXXX and did not understand why I ended up in fraud. My entire online platform was placed on hold and blocked access to both of my secured credit cards in which I make payments directly from my checking account. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with customer service again and was advised that my account was still blocked and I needed to make my payment until the investigation is complete. She attempted to transfer to the fraud team to unblock and explain the mix-up. I was able to schedule a payment with her, however on XX/XX/XXXX I receive an alert that I was late for payment on my credit, I was never late in history. I called again and was told it was an error and its no way to make a payment on my account while I was on hold until the investigation is over. I advised this would make my account report incorrectly and asked to close both secured accounts, however, this was never done. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I receive another credit alert for both cards and late status, I called NFC right away and spoke with customer service. She advised my accounts had never been closed and were on hold with fraud, she transferred me and I waited an hour before someone picked me up at XXXX XXXX. The specialist put me on hold after I explained the issue and was really not trying to help, he sounded very disoriented and not interested in hearing my concern. By the end of the conversation he was unable to help and I asked again to close the accounts because they are secured and funds were available in my savings account to pay off. He paid off both cards and closed them, however, now my credit is ruined and the account has been reported incorrectly because of blocking access to pay the accounts online and was told payment would be scheduled. My account should have never been closed, it was a Human Error that caused this, please fix it.
