Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Getting a credit card — Delay in processing application
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: KS

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a Capital One venture XXXX XXXX  days ago. I have excellent credit, which is higher than my husband 's. I am a XXXX XXXX. We share all finances. I do the booking for travel, so it made sense for me to apply for the card. They asked for XXXX consecutive bank statements for my proof of income, as well as our trust agreement that went with that account. I provided both. After waiting several weeks, I called. They informed me that was insufficient proof of income. I submitted my husband 's XXXX most recent pay stubs, which are deposited in that account which I proved I had complete joint access to. Still insufficient. Now they are saying I need a certified letter from my husband that he pays me. He was not comfortable doing that. It is not accurate. All money that come into our household is both of ours. My husband decided to apply for the same card with the exact same details. He was immediately approved. It was my understanding that regulation z was to make this illegal? 

I no longer need this credit card. I will be added to my husband 's account. Capital One strung us along for so long though, the {$250.00} advertised sign up bonus was no longer offered for my husband 's account. So, not only did they discriminate against me because I am a XXXX XXXX, but also cost us {$250.00}. 

While looking for advice on this topic, I came across several online forums on the same subject. It appears there are many XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that have had the exact same experience.

Complaint narrative:
I have reached out to the following accounts below for several times and talked to them about the issues with my account as reported by the BSI FINANCIAL SERVICES. They have advised me that they will remove ALL the late payments and will correct the credit report accordingly and accurately, however, as I reviewed my recent report the accounts are still reporting inaccurately. I am not sure how the BSI FINANCIAL SERVICES came up with this remark. They have failed to reinvestigate properly. Also, the comments do not conform to the payment history that is being shown in my report. I have also attached in this complaint the response from the company to remove the late payments.

Complaint narrative:
My account with TransUnion was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXXXXXX and all payments were placed on XXXX. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported to be removed.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 
TransUnion Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am distressed that you 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. 
This account is not mine and was opened using my personal identification without my consent. When any furnisher of information is notified pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 605B that a debt has resulted from identity theft, the furnisher may not sell, transfer, or place for collection the debt except in certain limited circumstances. Section 615 ( f ). Ive never given this company permission to contact me which according to the FCRA is also against federal laws. I have asked numerous times for this company to stop furnishing false information to the CRAs and also for them to stop contacting me. My next step will be to file suit. 
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. 
Your failure to positively verify has hurt my ability to obtain credit. 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. 
I demand that the following account ( s ) be verified or removed immediately : XXXXXXXX XXXX  Account Number : XXXX Charge Amount : {$3600.00} Date Opened : XX/XX/year> Reason For Dispute : Fraudulent Account, Account Not Mine, Unauthorized, Identity Theft

Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NH

Complaint narrative:
This has been an ongoing issue with TD bank. I have a mortgage in my name and there have been several times where I made the payment- but for an undisclosed, indeterminate reason, it didn't go through and wasn't processed. TD does not inform me at ALL that the payment didn't go through. For a huge bank in the US, this isn't right. I will get a XXXXXXXX XXXX  correspondence weeks later- but by then they charge me a late fee even through I don't understand why they didn't inform me via text, email, or even faster mail sooner out of a customer courtesy or even a warning before the late fee applies. I ask for the late fee to be waived since I did put the payment in and I have always proved I had the funds for it to process- but they don't care. They said I only get one waiver for the service of the loan and they will not issue anymore, even though this is their fault for the lack of communication. They are unwilling to refund me the late fees for their processing problems when it looks good on my end, and they also refuse to fix this years long problem. 
This is an FHA Loan- it's my first mortgage and I'm frustrated how hard they make the payment experience and also how they won't fix this, but push the late fees onto me.
