Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX is reporting late payments on my credit file that needs to be removed. I went to a store to purchase items for my son and daughter, upon arrival the cashier helped me fill out an application for a credit card which I agreed to use and paid and was on my way. However, I never received the card in the mail and completely forgot about the account. Next time I went and put in my number the cashier somehow put the balance onto that card with her machine because I didn't pay like I regularly do. English is not my first language, she might have told me it went to the card but I understood it was like free item because I didn't pay she just gave me my stuff.

However, I never got the card in the mail so I had no way to pay this statement and every time I try to call, I can't get through to anyone because they want a card number that I don't have! This has been a very frustrating process. I then noticed a notification from Experian that I had lates on my carter credit card. Turns out that {$10.00} purchase went past due, and my {$10.00} charge was now {$180.00} because of late fees and everything. I once again try to call and finally get through to pay the {$180.00} balance from the {$10.00} purchase and explain to the person what happened. They told me I would now get the card in the mail as he had sent it out again and I still have not received anything. I can't even use this card.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

Complaint narrative:
Dispute of Collection Account Request for Immediate Removal To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute the accuracy and validity of the collection account reported on my credit file. Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), I am exercising my right to dispute the legitimacy of this debt and demand its immediate removal from my credit report.

Legal Basis for Dispute : Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), the permissible purposes for accessing a consumer 's credit report exclude reporting or collection activities without proper validation. If the collection agency has not provided sufficient verification of the debt, including but not limited to proof of the original debt, the account 's validity is questionable. I have not received any proper documentation to support this debt.

Demand for Action : I demand that Experian immediately investigate this dispute and remove the inaccurate and invalid collection account from my credit report. Failure to do so within 15 business days will leave me with no choice but to pursue further action, including, but not limited to, filing a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and potentially pursuing legal remedies.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I applied and received a Wells Fargo Reflect card so that I could consolidate 2 of my highest credit cards. I was approved for {$18000.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received the card and went on line to to activate it. I was taken to different screens to set up the card, one screen being to list up to 2 different cards I wanted to utilize the balance transfer for. It was as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$6000.00} Later that afternoon I received a phone call from Wells Fargo Fraud dept. They stated that those charges were being attempted on my Wells Fargo Rewards Card, ending in XXXX. I said I don't recognize those charges, so that I could stop it from being put thru on the wrong card. I never use this card outside of a cash advance on a rare occasion. The interest rate is astronomical, and I would never ever use it for a balance transfer. I didn't even know how it came into the picture. I assumed it was stopped, especially since the agent said, a hold has been put on your card, and my on line banking accounts showed that card as being suspended. Though that balance was still showing on that card, NOT the Reflect card. 

I called repeatedly to no avail. I finally was put thru to escalations where they said it's too late, the payments were made to XXXX and XXXX, and that's the end. 

I will not accept this as the final answer. I opened the Reflect card only for the purpose of the balance transfer. I am wrongly on the hook now for an astronomical amount of interest charges and fees on the WF Rewards card. 

Please help

I am filing a complaint against Experian, Equifax, and Transunion for failing to properly investigate my disputes regarding inaccuracies on my credit report.

Furthermore, Experian, Equifax, and Transunion 's actions may also contravene the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), 12 U.S.C. 5536 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) - ( B ), as highlighted in the CFPB 's recent administrative proceeding ( File No. XXXX ) against them for similar violations.

Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries. These are the following accounts need to be removed : XXXX XXXX XXXX

State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Complaint Chase Bank Dispute Denial I am filing a complaint against Chase Bank regarding a denied chargeback under XXXX  Rule XXXX. I paid around {$65000.00} for XXXX XXXX XXXX. I received a partial refund of {$34000.00} on XX/XX/year>, but the remaining {$30000.00} was never returned. 
Chase denied my dispute because the transaction was processed by a third-party service. 
They claimed they are unable to assist and told me I must try to recover the money outside of Chase. I have no way to contact the merchant anymore, and they are not responding. 
I believe this denial is unjustified. XXXX does not prohibit chargebacks simply because a third-party processed the payment. I met all dispute deadlines, and I am owed this money for services that were never delivered. 
I am requesting CFPB assistance to compel Chase to either escalate the case to XXXX or explain, with reference to Visas rules, why they refuse to act. 
Sincerely, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
