Company: Aargon Agency, Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I recently did an investigation on my credit report. I am distressed that they have included the information below in my credit profile and that you have failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum possible accuracy in the credit reports you publish. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be re-investigated. 

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify, through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract, any and all accounts that you post on a credit report. Otherwise anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account.

I demand to see verifiable proof ( i.e. : an original consumer contract with my signature on it ) that you have on file for the account listed below. I respectfully requested to be provided proof of this alleged item, specifically the contract, note or other instrument bearing my wet signature such as ; Original contract Payoff disclosure Interest rate disclosure Balance history Payment History Credit insurance which they failed to provide to me. The item must be deleted from the report as soon as possible.

Under the FCRA, unverifiable accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the account listed below.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Pre-paid for a rental car ( XXXX ) and XXXX put a hold on my credit card. Returned the car early, and XXXX said hold had been removed. Tried to call them and the automated system states to contact credit card company about removing the hold so I did. Discover said they could not remove the hold because transaction was in pending status. So I called XXXX again and got the same response. It's been a week now since I paid for the rental and returned the car. The pending transaction is not showing on my account yet Discover has not removed the hold and so I don't have the available. This adds insult to injury, I have had the prepaid card for years and Discover has never even considered me for an increase. They would not even bother to let me dispute the charge or do an investigation. What a company!

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
To Who it may concern ; This is about the consumer credit transaction entered with your company dated XX/XX/2016 and I extended your organization the credit for account XXXX. I hereby give your company WELLS FARGO CARD SERVICES notice pursuant to 15 usc 1602 ( k ) that your company never provided an adequate notice which clearly and conspicuously mentions the pertinent facts of this transaction.

Wells Fargo Card services didnt even inform me and the cost of credit, with the ONLY evidence of indebtness was just a computer-generated agreement. According to 15 usc 1602 ( k ) the term adequate notice means a printed notice to a cardholder which set forth the pertinent facts clearly and conspicuously so that a person against whom it is to operate could reasonably be expected to have notice it and understand its meaning. Such notice may be given to a cardholder by printing the notice on any credit card, or on each periodic statement of account issued to the cardholder, or by any other means reasonably assuring the receipt thereof by the card holder. 
Since adequate notice was not given as per the above-mentioned section, I couldnt understand its meaning which is a violation under 15 us 1602 ( k ).

Furthermore, pursuant to 15 usc 1601 ( a ) a consumer must be aware of the cost of transaction. Since I was not aware of the transaction, therefore made and uninformed decision and it resulted in multiple billing errors and unfair credit card practices.

From your end, I have not benefited from this transaction which again is a violation of 15 usc 1602 ( p ). According to 15 usc 1602 ( p ) the term unauthorized use means any use of a credit card by a person other than the cardholder who does not have actual, implied or apparent authority for such use and from which cardholder received benefit.

I hereby request you do the below mentioned ; 1. STOP COMMUNICATING THIS ACCOUNT TO ALL!

2. DELETE ACCOUNT FROM ALL RECORDS!

3. A FULL REFUND OF ALL BALANCES PAID!

4. {$3000.00} check FOR ALL VIOLATIONS LISTED.

5. STOP INFRINGING ON MY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY!

If you accept my request, I will not escalate this matter to federal court. In case, you choose to disregard and not accept the above requests, a legal action shall be taken against your company for compensatory damages.

Thank you for you attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Here, XXXX XXXX of the ironically named M & T Bank " Voice of the Customer '' department has artificially added another month or more to the supposed and alleged " 120 day hold period set out in the Card Association rules '' to hold our {$20000.00} seized money, by terminating our account in writing on XX/XX/XXXX, but falsely stating that " our last transaction was sometime in XXXX, '' even though we could not even use the account because they closed it in XXXX. XXXX. Please investigate and advise, and get our money returned to us as scheduled in XX/XX/XXXX, rather than the " sometime in XX/XX/XXXX '' as they arrogantly state in their letter. It's already bad enough for us to wait 120 days to get our own money back, but to have these criminals hold it for another month or more during the Holiday season is downright evil.
