Complaint narrative:
I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below.

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Didn't receive advertised or promotional terms
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I recently received an offer from Capital One for a new credit card that advertised a 0 % APR on both purchases and balance transfers. Understanding that terms might change upon approval, I proceeded with the application. 

After my application was approved, I received an email from Capital One confirming the approval of my credit card with a credit limit of {$10000.00}. The email also included the following terms : A 0 % introductory APR on purchases and balance transfers for 9 months A 29.99 % variable APR after the 9-month introductory period However, upon reviewing the official documents and checking the terms in my Capital One app, I discovered that the 0 % APR for balance transfers was not honored. Despite the approval email clearly stating that both purchases and balance transfers would have a 0 % introductory APR for 9 months, my actual account terms do not reflect this offer. 

I contacted Capital One to address this discrepancy, and they escalated the case. However, even after the escalation, they have not honored the terms stated in the approval email. This inconsistency between the initial offer, the approval email, and the final terms has caused significant confusion and frustration.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Private mortgage insurance (PMI)
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: NE

Complaint narrative:
On or about XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Wells Fargo Home Mortgage via Telephone on their recorded customer service line to see how much of a principal payment I needed to make to remove Private Mortgage Insurance ( PMI ) from my mortgage. The representative stated I needed to make a payment of {$980.00}. I made this payment and it was posted to my account on XX/XX/XXXX ( Exhibit 1 ). I was instructed to call back when the payment posts and request the PMI to do so. I made this phone call in return and the representative had no idea what I was talking about and told me to refer to the letter. I did so on the phone and read the verbiage which stated I needed to call to request removal if loan is less than XXXX  % XXXX. 

The representative then said she put the request through and I should get a letter stating it was removed. Subsequently I then received a Escrow Letter requesting funds of approximately {$2200.00} for Escrow shortages, this would include PMI funds of approximately {$3100.00}. This seems like an attempt for Wells Fargo to extort monies from me. 

I then have reviewed the Loan Documents ( Ex. 4- Loan Documents ) originally executed on XX/XX/XXXX which states : The date the primcipal balance actually reaches 80 % of the original value of the property I called Wells Fargo and spoke with XXXX XXXX XXXX she stated that a principal payment alone was not enough and I also needed an appraisal. The loan documents state, as well as the letter from Wells Fargo, that : ( 4 ) the servicer receives, if requested and at your expense, evidence satisfactory to the holder of your loan that the value of the property has not declined below its original value, and certification that there are no subordinate leins on the property This next delay tactic to extort monies from me is contrary to any reasonable understanding of the marketplace. In fact, just last week on XX/XX/XXXX the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX reported that median home prices are at an all time high ( attached as EX 5 ). Wells Fargo is demonstrating a patter of behavior to extort money from me they are not otherwise entitled to. 

My loan to value is XXXX %, I have made 4 requests to have PMI removed, Wells Fargo refuses to do so.
