Consumer complaint received 2023-12-11 00:00:00
Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan — Installment loan
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
I received a resolution from Affirm confirming that the loan that was opened under my name doesnt belong to me and that loan was closed. When I called about a month ago, I spoke to someone who explained they would update my new phone number and email address so that my information is correct. However, after attempting to login using the correct phone number, I was told I have another account. I called today just to be told that my name is still linked to this loan and that my account can not be closed and that again I would have to wait another request and wait 5 days for my profile to be updated. I am so sick of the run around I have been given everything I call. I dont understand what is the problem and why my personal information can not be deattached from this number that no longer belongs to me. I no longer wish to have an account with Affirm at all but before that takes place, I need them to remove all my information from their system and close any accounts related to my name. I need this loan information to be added to the correct profile and removed from any history within my information. The way this business has handled this situation is beyond traumatic and ridiculous. Please close any accounts linked to my name and remove any association to any loans that were not authorized by me. I have never requested a loan from you all and you know this since you sent me notification that this loan did not belong to me.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I applied for a Neiman Marcus store card issued by Capital One around XX/XX/23. I did not receive any correspondence regarding the application and didnt even know if it went through. The only way I found out that anything had taken place was when I saw a hard inquiry on my XXXX report. I was told that my application was denied because Capital One could not gain access to my XXXX and XXXX reports. Only discovered this once I called to ask why there was an inquiry. There are no letters or notifications in my Capital One account or Neiman Marcus account pertaining to this application. I was not requested to lift the freeze in any way. I requested that the hard inquiry on my XXXX report be removed as the application was not complete. Capital One stated that they needed access to all 3 bureaus to make a determination. However, the representative would not honor that fair and reasonable request. I have been penalized by other creditors whom I have cards with for having too many inquiries after Capital Ones reporting.

Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc

Complaint narrative:
I made a purchase on XX/XX/2023 online at XXXX using the app Affirm. I purchased a total of four XXXX XXXX  that cost XXXX. I noticed on Affirm that there were two loans pending for the same exact amount and eventually they were both approved by XXXX. I am expected to pay both loans when I only received one order of the four XXXX, not two. I immediately contacted an Affirm representative and they explained to be that it is the merchants responsibility for this double charge. They also provided me with an order number for that second loan. I called XXXX and they said this issue is the responsibility of Affirm and they do not have any record of the order number provided by Affirm. They only have one order of the tires in their system. I opened a dispute with Affirm and they closed it without providing any information as to why they closed the dispute. I need to get some answers and they are not helping at all.

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a matter of concern regarding my credit card account with your company. I have been a loyal customer, and I have always strived to maintain a good credit history with your institution.
