Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I purchased 2 tickets for XXXX XXXX back in XX/XX/2023 for {$320.00}. The show was in XX/XX/2023 and I never received the tickets. I contacted XXXX several times via chat asking for my tickets they told me that they were going to be mailed but they never was. Then I asked XXXX to let me get a refund, transfer, or sell the tickets but they wouldn't let me because they said they were being mailed. 7 days prior to the show they still were not mailed, I couldn't get a refund, transfer them, or sell them, so I reached out to XXXX again. A few days before the show they were available to mobile download and thats it. I couldn't use the tickets and so no one use the tickets. I disputed all of this with the bank, sent numerous chat messages between me and XXXX showing they wouldn't help me with the tickets. Eventually my bank credited me the money back {$320.00} after about a month after the dispute and I thought I got my money back. Recently, I noticed a withdraw on my account for the tickets again and so I called the bank and they told me that they were just balancing out my credit card account because I got a new card with updated expiration date and that I hadn't actually got charged again. Today, I got a letter in fact telling me they charged me again for {$320.00} saying XXXX didn't do anything wrong. It seems every time I have a dispute with my transactions my bank doesn't protect my purchases.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I hope this message finds you well. I'm writing to express my concerns regarding the reporting of my charged-off XXXX XXXX credit card account on my credit report. 

This account has been officially charged off, however, it continues to be reported as a 'charge-off ' on my credit report for an extended period of time. This repetition implies that a new negative event is occurring each month, which is not accurate. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, a charged-off account should be reported as such once, not on a continuing monthly basis. The continuous reporting of the charge-off is negatively impacting my credit score in an undue manner. 

This incorrect reporting has significant consequences on my financial standing and potential for future credit opportunities. I kindly request your assistance in rectifying this issue to ensure that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter. 

Best regards, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX was offered via my account three options to get caught up on my account. It was in the negative because my daughter used my card while I was on medical leave. I chose the one where you make four bigger payments with no interest. With that, I would have money available to use and my account would be out the negative. After the four months then the interest and regular payments would start. I was charged XXXX XXXX plus dollars in interest per month. The bigger payments did not affect my account in a positive way. It is still in the balance is still in the negative. I was mislead. When speaking to customer service they stated it was nothing they could do! It states it was third party but the offer was offered in my account. When I logon to check my account and pay the bill.

Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: Javitch, Block & Rathbone LLC
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I found XXXX XXXX XXXX reporting on my credit report and disputed it as unrecognized. The Credit Agencies reported back on the dispute as correct per XXXX. They told me to call XXXX directly at the number listed on credit report ( see attached item # 1 ). XXXX told me they can not speak to me, as they no longer have the file. They had me log in their website and showed me the phone number for XXXX XXXX and said to call them, they have no information on the debt anymore and are not permitted to speak with me about it. I haver called XXXX XXXX several times over the course of four weeks and only am placed on hold after pressing prompts. I wait 20 minutes or more and no one ever answers the phone. I call XXXX XXXX the original Creditor, and told them the above. XXXX XXXX states that their records show they charged it off and sold it to XXXX XXXX XXXX, to call them again. I called XXXX again and asked for a supervisor and explained why. She apologized but said she can not tell me anything, but she would send an email to XXXX XXXX asking them to call my cell number ( which I provided.to her ). I can not understand how they can claim they own the debt on my credit report and verify its info with the credit reporting agencies, but tell me they have no information on file anymore and they have no jurisdiction to speak with me about it anymore. How can they then verify they own it and corroborate its accuracy on my credit report when it was recently disputed? I am trying to get validation of this debt, but the supposed " owners '' of the debt refuse to tal to me and refer me to another party who will not answer there phones. I can show phone records of my attempted multiple calls and wait times. This should not be legal and it appears they can not validate the debt since they can not speak about it,. Secondly, this XXXX XXXX has never sent me any communications as required nor has either party allowed me to validate the debt, including the supposed owners of it!
