Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: Continental Finance Company, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I was going through my credit report and noticed several hard credit inquiries that I don't believe I personally authorized. I've attempted to contacted each of those creditors listed and the credit bureaus that appears on my credit report. But after spending countless of hours and days on the phone with them and follow up through mail letters, Ive being giving run around, and they are still reporting inaccurate, incomplete and unverifiable items on my credit report. I've also personally wrote to the credit bureaus to look into this and I haven't received any responses over XXXX days. Again, I did not believe I personally authorized anyone employed by these companies to make any inquiry and view my credit report. This is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 1681b ( c ) and a serious breach of my privacy rights, and I would like these hard inquiries removed from my credit report immediately if they can not be verified.

Company: Consumer Portfolio Services, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I have spoke with Consumer Portfolio Services corporate and sent in 1099 that their company has accepted and sent back to me via mail. The accounts are still showing although the debt is discharged. The company claims they did not discharge the debt and that I am still liable although I have provided all necessary documentation as well as sent it to the companies indentured trustee who is also not responding. I have sent a letter to the indentured trustee with this information also. The IRS has accepted the 1099 and CPS actually sent me the copy B to the 1099 form, not the IRS. CPS is stating they did not send that. This is stated on a recorded phone call with a manager of corporate. Please forward this 1099 to the indentured trustee of CPS per your Sec.gov filings and ensure my account is updated.

I have also called and emailed several VP 'S and the CEO of this company with no responses. This is unacceptable.

Thanks to this situation. My XXXX which I have been free from for 3 years have started again from the stress of this.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc

Complaint narrative:
Venmo frozen my account on XX/XX/XXXX, I called them and they told me they would respond after 24 hours. I did not receive a response until XX/XX/XXXX. At which point they told me the were closing my account and holding my funds for 180 days. I did nothing wrong and they are stealing my money. I desperately need that money to pay my bills. I am a single mom who now fees eviction due to this. 

At this point I will be submitting all of this to the news and blowing this up to a massive story if they do not allow me to at least withdrawl my funds immediately.

The accounts are still showing although the debt is XXXX. The company claims they did not discharge the debt and that I am still liable although I have provided all necessary documentation as well as sent it to the companies indentured trustee who is also not responding. I have sent a letter to the indentured trustee with this information also. The IRS has accepted the 1099C and Capital one actually sent me the copy B to the 1099C form, not the IRS. Capital One Auto Finance is stating they did not send that and that if they received anything like that in the mail, it would have been Shredded. This is stated on a recorded phone call with a manager of the office of the president. I have also called 2 times to update My terms and conditions of My contract removing arbitration. I keep getting sent copies of my contact, nowhere to sign stating no arbitration. As I am the holder in due course as I also hold the contract with you, it is my right to change the contract. Also in my last complaint I had used my right as a citizen to opt out of their reporting services citing many laws proving my right to do so. The company came back with XXXX and how it entitles them to report my non public information. According to XXXX, as attached in the documents, you are still violating my rights and this instance does not fall within the XXXX guidelines as an exception. Please forward this 1099C to the indentured trustee of Capital One Auto Finance per your Sec.gov filings and ensure my account is updated. In the meantime, update My account to paid as agreed, never late. There has been no proof besides a statement that I received notice 21 days before the due date of my.statement besides the statement itself. Please provide tracking of all statements sent and proof of delivery. If you can not provide this, you must update them per 15 usc 1666b. 15 usc 1681 ( 2 ) ( a ) ( i ) states transaction history may not be reported. If you are using XXXX to say yes you can report, see the attached that this non public information does not fall under the exceptions of XXXX. 

Also, I was waiting to make a payment as they stated they were still looking over the 1099-C that they sent to ME to discharge the debt and I have late payments on my account I did pay the account as soon as they told me they would not credit it. I however kept contact and made it known I had no intention of defaulting on my account with them.

Complaint narrative:
Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.
