Company: TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC

Complaint narrative:
To whom it may concern : I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, PA on XXXX XXXX, XXXX for a XXXX XXXX to return to XXXX ( I live in XXXX although I am an American citizen ). I paid completely for the XXXX XXXX, {$110.00} with my credit card. The statement from XXXX states, " prompt pay ''. 
In XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from Transworld Systems Inc that I owe {$70.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I immediately went online to the account indicated and initiated a dispute. The letter required that I initiate the dispute by XX/XX/XXXX. 
Following the initial date that I went online, I went online again and the account still did not show the dispute initiated so I clicked again on the dispute. On XX/XX/XXXX, I did the same thing again and it still did not show the dispute initiated so I decided to call Transworld. I was told that they confirmed the dispute was initiated, only on the second time I went online but would not provide proof that I initiated the dispute. 
Since then, I have not heard anything from Transworld and also tried to log in to their website ( XXXX ) but the site is no longer working. 
At this point, I am not sure what I should do and decided to reach out to CFPB as I do not want this episode to affect my credit rating and be solved quickly. 
Thank you for your support! 
Best regards, XXXX

Complaint narrative:
We attended a Wyndham Sales pitch on XXXX. After presentation they did their sales pitch, we were intrigued and we allowed them to run our credit to see what we were pre-approved for, kinda like what you would do while car shopping. They kept pushing us to agree to put it on a credit card. I clearly even told them I dont like racking up credit cards. 
We ended up not going for it because of the financial timing, with us trying to buy a bigger house in the next 2 years. Flash forward to XXXX when we are back home. I receive a letter of the pre-screen/pre-approval for a line of credit which I expectedand my husband received a Barclays XXXX credit card with a XXXX limit. At no point did we agree to opening a credit card or fill out an application. 
Ive called Barclays which said they can just close the account, which would now double hit by husband credit. Since that credit card Wyndham fraudulently opened, did a XXXX point deduction! I called the Wyndham Vacation but of course their managers and sales department were not in.. @ XXXX on Monday..ya sure. Ill be waiting on a call back from them. 

After we declined their sales pitch, there was no other paperwork given to us.
