Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX Experian illegally initiated a dispute without the written consent of me, the consumer, as well as lack of supporting information that the agency, originally asked for. I have reason to believe the agency, fraudulently obtained and sold this information without revealing the entities they sourced and sold this information to and from. Providing credit reports to unauthorized third parties, is a violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Reporting inaccurate information on a consumer 's credit report, which can harm the consumer 's credit standing and limit their ability to obtain credit, housing, or employment is an addition to this set of violations. Furthermore they furnished a credit report with false information without proper reinvestigation or my WRITTEN consent. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), starting a dispute without written consent from a consumer would violate section 611 ( a ) ( 2 ) which states : '' No person shall furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if such person knows or consciously avoids knowing that the information is inaccurate. " Additionally, section 611 ( f ) requires that a consumer reporting agency may not provide consumer reports to third parties unless it has reasonable procedures in place to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information in the consumer report, including procedures to verify the accuracy of information furnished by third parties. In addition, they are in violation of Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ), which requires credit bureaus to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of consumer credit information ; Section 611 ( b ), which requires credit bureaus to provide consumers with the specific reasons for any adverse action taken as a result of information contained in a consumer 's credit report ; and Section 616, which requires credit bureaus to delete information from a consumer 's credit report that is found to be inaccurate. These actions have caused me, denied loan and credit applications, higher interest rates and unfavorable loan terms, decreased credit score, increased difficulty in repairing credit, emotional distress, and time and money spent correcting errors.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I filed a complaint a month ago ( COMPLAINT ID # XXXX SUBMITTED ON XX/XX/XXXX ) ago regarding an issue I have been trying to resolve since XX/XX/XXXX. It is a very simple and very clear issue that Capital One is refusing to acknowledge their clear negligence in handling appropriately. Now I am receiving almost daily texts, emails and letters trying to collect the fee that is in dispute as well as late fees and interest charges ON TOP OF the fee in dispute. Meanwhile they are reporting me to the credit bureaus as delinquent on paying my account and have reduced my credit score from " Excellent '' to " Fair '' while they claim to be continuing to " review '' this case. This an obvious effort to intimidate and harass me into paying fees I have not incurred. Capital One needs to address this issue. It has been almost 5 months and they have had plenty of time.

That was it - No more details as I promptly applied on the American Express Website since I was already an XXXX customer using their Blue Cash Rewards Card. Instantly Approved and then I made my XXXX XXXX purchase used on XX/XX/XXXX- XX/XX/XXXX. 
I received the {$30.00} each way credit for baggage but I needed to contact AMEX to dispute the charge - This was Quickly Resolved on both instances. 
As I was talking to the Customer Service Representative around XX/XX/XXXX, nothing was ever stated about NOT receiving the {$200.00} promotional Credit. It was even confirmed during that XX/XX/XXXX phone call AFTER the first billing cycle, I would receive the Credit. 
In XX/XX/XXXX, I raised the concern again with AMEX, only to be told I was given a Promitional Credit for ANOTHER Credit card that I had opened several years ago and they do not issue multiple rewards.. IF This warning or disclaimer was on the Site when I opened the DELTA card, I would have Never used AMEX to purchase my Airline ticket nor would I have opened up the credit card. 
I Cancelled all of my Credit cards with amex as I was a customer since XXXX - If they dont care about customers, there are plenty of other Credit offerings out there that do!
