Company: Coinbase, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have had multiple issues with Coinbase , Inc . Freezing my funds and demanding payment for transactions that have already settled. In addition, Coinbase hase made several ACH withdrawals from my bank account that do not match any of the transactions I have had with the site. 

I have submitted 3 support tickets and contacted customer service on two occasions. 

My account was settled back to {$0.00} balance after escalating and speaking with an account specialist. After logging in two weeks later the company has frozen my account and demands {$6800.00} for transactions that were previously settled. 

I have recently had fraud on other credit cards not associated with my Coinbase account. One charge on XX/XX/XXXX was for a XXXX, where someone ran a background check on myself and was able to access scores of personal information that could be used to gain access my Coinbase account. 

All of the incidents with Coinbase mentioned above happened after the XXXX fraudulent charge. 

I submitted another support ticket but never get resolution for these issues. Coinbase has been unscrupulously handling ACH withdrawals, Credit Card withdrawals and now are demanding funds that were either settled or fraudulently charged based on the facts that i have gathered. 

I am seeking immediate resolution to clear the negative balance and regain access to my account. Coinbase has been dismissive and unresponsive to my concerns.

There is nothing the local police can do about it. 

I am asking that Transunion and XXXX place credit freezes on my credit bureau at no charge and that they refund the fees they have collected since the security breach occured.

Company: FINEX Group LLC

Complaint narrative:
Upon seeing a collection account reported on my XXXX credit report, I contacted, by Certified Mail with Return Receipt, the collection agency called XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX ( XXXX ), on XX/XX/2017, regarding a collection account in the amount of {$1800.00}. I kindly requested them to validate the debt and give me more info on it. To date I have not received any response from them. I think the collection company is in default as they did not respond within 30 days time. In fact they never replied to my letter seeking validation and more details on my alleged debt. The collection information still remains on my XXXX credit profile and it is preventing me from moving forward, financially speaking. The collection agencies are very arrogant and defiant of consumer laws. They are under the false illusion that they are all powerful and invincible. I pray that you, the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau will reign on them and limit their power, arrogance and gross disrespect for the law. 

I can be contacted at : XXXX. 

I thank you in advance for your time and efforts in this matter.
