Consumer complaint received 2024-02-10 00:00:00
Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan — Personal line of credit
Issue: Credit limit changed — 
Company: UPGRADE, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Upgrade took adverse action and lowered one of my credit accounts to XXXX They sent me a letter stating the adverse action was based on information obtained from XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and a credit score that was not disclosed. 
I called to question this action and the impact to my utilization, I was told that they did not have to follow disclosure requirements and adverse action requirements because they are a line of credit and not a credit card. I think they are lying. 
The accounts have credit cards linked to them for use. The instrument behaves like a credit account and should be held to account. it is really gray how they are running these accounts. 

I am utterly confused. 
I asked for the specific information relied on to make their credit decision and they refused, stating it was based on an electronic communication received XX/XX/XXXX. I asked, well what if it is wrong. I requested specific information as 3 entities are listed on the letter. 

They refused yet again, I have asked repeatedly for this issue to be escalated, because I do not feel they are following the rules and are doing a sloppy job. As a consumer, I think it is a tactic to deter paying off your debt and keeping your scores low so you can not refinance. Something is wrong with this. How can you use XXXX information to make a credit decision 2 years later XX/XX/XXXX. If you are not relying on this report, I have a right to see what you used so I can correct misinformation or inaccurate information about me. I have 2 accounts and the letter does not identify or specify which on or anything.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023, I received an email from PayPal regarding a negative balance of {$110.00}. I have not made any transactions on my PayPal account, and logged into my account to check the negative balance. My account had been hacked ( a quick XXXX search reveals that approximately XXXX accounts were hacked in early XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX ), and was changed to a Business account without my knowledge, with an address in Tennessee ( I am in Maryland, and have NO connection with this business ). While there is NO bank account OR card linked to my account, the hacker was able to make several transactions, as they were running a fraudulent business selling items online. The buyers filed a dispute with PayPal due to never having received the items ( again, I did NOT authorize these transactions ), and filed a charge back, which PayPal applied as a negative balance to my account. I did NOT authorize these transactions, and therefore, should NOT owe the {$110.00} that is said I owe. I NEVER received ANY notification of account changes or transactions made on my account. This appears to be a violation of Federal law, which usually requires the company ( i.e. PayPal ) to notify consumers as soon as they are notified of a data breach, and even provide free credit monitoring for at least a year. PayPal did NOT do this, and I was ONLY notified of the negative balance on my account, and had NO chance to report the transactions as fraudulent. PayPal keeps sending the same generic message to me through their Message Center as a reply to my messages, which has nothing to do with my concern. I need the unauthorized negative balance to be removed from my account. I do not want these fraudulent charges to appear as a collection on my credit report.
