I am so confused about your credit bureaus investigation on the accounts, that I am again writing this letter to dispute the fraudulent accounts on my credit report. As you have known, I have submitted the required XXXX report I filed on XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding the fraudulent accounts on my reoprt and upon submission, XXXX and XXXX removed the said accounts on their records. I also contacted the companies associated with these accounts and they said they have removed the accounts, so my question is : why are the accounts still reporting on your bureau? It is important to note that as a credit bureau, you are legally obligated to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of your records. By failing to remove these fraudulent accounts, you are not fulfilling this obligation and are exposing me to further harm. Please have these accounts deleted from my report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX

Issue: Struggling to pay your loan — 
Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against Affirm regarding the mishandling of a refund and their refusal to reverse charges for a trip purchase made through XXXX on XX/XX/year>. I canceled the purchase the same day, XX/XX/year>, within XXXX hours, as per the terms and conditions, and received a partial refund for the hotel portion of the trip. However, I have not received a refund for the flights, even though the law states that flights should be 100 % refunded within XXXX hours of purchase. 

Despite multiple attempts to resolve this issue with Affirm 's support team, they have refused to reverse the charges for the flights I never took, amounting to {$520.00}. I have a flawless payment history with Affirm, having successfully paid off XXXX installment loans for trips and items I actually used or purchased. I even offered to pay the full balance of the loan, despite not being responsible, if they removed the late payment reporting from the loan. 

To my dismay, on XX/XX/XXXX, Affirm charged off my account instead of addressing and rectifying the problem they created. This not only reflects poorly on their customer service, but it also has a negative impact on my credit score. 

I believe that Affirm 's actions in this matter are in violation of consumer protection laws and regulations. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will thoroughly investigate this complaint and take appropriate action against Affirm to ensure fair and just resolution. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution and a satisfactory outcome.

Company: Dakota Financial, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I went to XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Kansas, to purchase a commercial truck. The finance company that approved my application was Dakota Financial , LLC, based in XXXX XXXX, CA. Before buying the truck, I paid a {$2500.00} deposit to hold the truck until I arrived from Texas. Upon arrival, I gave the dealership a cashier 's check for {$24000.00} as the down payment, and the {$2500.00} deposit was applied to the total truck price of {$67000.00}. This left a remaining balance of {$39000.00}. 

I have made 12 payments of {$1700.00} each, totaling {$21000.00}. This should reduce the balance to {$18000.00} ( {$39000.00} - {$21000.00} ). Due to a breakdown in XXXX, my truck was in the shop for a month for engine repairs. I requested a payment arrangement, and XXXX from Dakota Financial agreed to defer a payment if I made a full month 's payment, which I did on XX/XX/2024. However, after making the payment, XXXX XXXX informed me that they could not defer the payment despite XXXX 's offer. 

On XX/XX/2024, I requested a payoff statement and was shocked to receive a payoff amount of {$65000.00}. This is inexplicable given the down payment and the 12 monthly payments I have made. Dakota Financial does not provide a balance with payments, and they charge {$70.00} to request one. Despite providing all necessary documentation from the repair shop, including hours and details of the breakdown, Dakota Financial refused to honor the arrangement discussed by XXXX. This situation is both deceptive and fraudulent. 

Where has my money gone after the down payment and the 12 monthly payments? I am willing to provide email correspondence between myself, Dakota Financial, and the repair shop, XXXX XXXX, to support my claim.
