Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I used a credit card that I took out at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to make a payment of {$9900.00} to the XXXX XXXX XXXX company as part of a payment of {$19000.00} that this company charged me for reasons of Real Estate consultancies. Which turned out to be a fraud, this company scammed thousands of people with these advice, they went to a Federal lawsuit in the year XXXX and had all their properties and capital confiscated. We made claims to the XXXX Federal Trade Commission where they told us to make claims or disputes with the banks that we used to pay this company. This is what I did, and the XXXX company did refund my money, but the XXXX XXXX XXXX Bank refused to refund my money arguing that the XXXX company only allows disputes made within a period of 120 days after the transaction, I did my dispute with them since XX/XX/XXXX because we did not know that XXXX would not return the money to us. And now XXXX says it's too late for a dispute. I sent XXXX all the evidence of the case and the reason why the dispute was made up to that date but they continue to say that it is the XXXX company 's fault and that they can't do anything. I feel very frustrated by this situation since credit cards are supposedly insured against this type of fraud. I hope you can help me and spread this case so that it doesn't happen to other people. Thank you

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: CNG FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Urgent Request for Documentation and Action Regarding Unauthorized Inquiry and Security Interest Dear Axcess Financial, I am writing to address a concerning matter regarding an inquiry reported by Axcess Financial, which lacks permissible purpose and, as such, constitutes potential identity fraud. Per my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Sections 604 and 605B, I am requesting immediate action to rectify this situation.

Firstly, I require documentation proving that I provided express written consent for Axcess Financial to report the inquiry in question. As there is no evidence of such consent or a court order, I must assert that this inquiry lacks legitimacy and is thus subject to removal.

Per the FCRA Section 605B, a consumer reporting agency must block the reporting of any information resulting from alleged identity theft when identified by the consumer. Therefore, I am formally notifying Axcess Financial to remove this inquiry from my file within four business days.

Furthermore, it has come to my attention that Axcess Financial neglected to inform me of my right to rescission, as outlined in the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), specifically Regulation Z ( 12 CFR 1026.23 ). This allows me to revoke any rights waived, particularly those related to the security interest. I am requesting the CUSIP number associated with the security interest provided to Axcess Financial. Failure to provide this information will leave me with no alternative but to initiate a level 3 audit on my account.

I expect prompt compliance with these requests to avoid further escalation of this matter. Failure to do so will be regarded as willful noncompliance and may result in legal action.

Please provide confirmation of receipt of this letter and a timeline for resolution of these issues.

Complaint narrative:
I have been enrolled with XXXX repayment program for the past 4-5yrs. This program assists with the repayment of the account with no interest and to maintain good credit status with credit agencies. I have never been late on the monthly payments in the amount of {$94.00} per month that automatically deducts from my bank account. I successfully reached the end of the repayment term with only two payments remaining for the months of XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, I had received a statement that reflect the remaining balance. I contacted XXXX just to verify remaining balance and the customer service representative confirmed. I inquired since my normal monthly payments were setup as {$94.00} per month, there would eventually be an over payment and how does XXXX handle the overpayment. The customer representative agreed that there would be an overpayment and gave me the option to either continue making the last two payments ( XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$94.00} each ) and XXXX would mail me a refund. The second option would be the customer service representative can manually modify my last two months payment to split into two payments of {$60.00} and XXXX  for the months ( XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ). I opted to accept the second option to avoid overpayment. In XXXX, I received a credit report alert of my credit score ( decreased approximately by XXXX points ) with XXXX and Transunion had adversely been impacted by a past due payment status with XXXX. My XXXX credit score went from very good to below average. My Transunion credit score went from good to fair. I was shocked! As mention before I have NEVER been late or paid less than original repayment monthly amount since enrolled in program. The customer service representative NEVER communicated that if the last two months payments are modified that my credit status would be negatively impacted! I would have NEVER accepted that option that she gave me. XXXX should be ashamed to treat me this way when I have paid according to the repayment program and why would I risk my good credit status on the last two final payments of the program. XXXX should be held accountable for the negligence of their customer service representatives. I want the negative past due status removed from credit agencies and revised to current and always paid as agreed for this account. I want my credit score points that were lost to be reinstated.
