Complaint narrative:
This company offered a loan for XXXX XXXX. I verbally discussed the terms over the phone but was never given the terms in writing nor did I sign anything. They are claiming they gave me {$300.00} in early XXXX and now saying that I owe {$3600.00} less than a month later. I NEVER signed a contract nor did I receive any terms and conditions before the funds dispersed. XXXX XXXX loans are based on how much you make and they falsely verbally claimed that payments would only have to be made if my business made money. Their marketing tactics were extremely shady and purposely misleading. I never received any sort of terms or conditions prior to them dispersing payments. They dispersed payment then have been harassing me ever since saying I owe {$3600.00} in default fees. It has not even been one month yet and I was under the impression the payments were monthly. Ive discussed this with them multiple times but they keep harassing me saying Im ignoring themwhich Im not. They are all lying and its extremely frustrating as I did not even agree to the funds they gave. I never agreed to any arrangement and theyre falsely claiming I signed documents that I have never seen!!!

Company: Chime Financial Inc

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> at XXXX XXXX  ( XXXX ) the following alert was texted from Chime : " CHIME ALERT : Did you try to use Chime Debit Card for {$650.00} at XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX Thu, in XXXX XXXX Tx XXXX Reply Y for Yes or N for No. '' Note : It was later revealed that the return phone number ( XXXX ) XXXX has been associated with scam calls, including those impersonating the XXXX XXXX Sheriff 's Office and potentially other government or law enforcement agencies. Some individuals have reported receiving calls from this number or similar XXXX numbers claiming to be from the XXXX XXXX Sheriff 's Office, attempting to elicit money. 

I responded NO to the text, to which the following reply was sent : " Thank you for your response. A temporary block has been placed on your account. A Chime specialist will call you immediately to protect your account. '' At XXXX XXXX  ( XXXX ), a Chime representative ( a male  by the name of " XXXX '' with a XXXX XXXX XXXX ) contacted me from ( XXXX ) XXXX indicating that my account may have been compromised. The phone search on this number was later revealed to be XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, XXXX. 

The solution was to close the existing account and have all the funds transferred into a new one, and that a debit card would be mailed in 1-2 business days. The number XXXX was used, which was assumed to be the new account number, but turned out to be an actual phone number ( XXXX ) XXXX. The money was moved to this phone number, much like a routine XXXX transfer. 

The phone number XXXX appears to be associated with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, TX. 

The rep also requested the following information : NAME SSN ( LAST 4 ) BIRTHDATE HOME ADDRESS, which was not provided ; the rep could not verify the address, despite the fact that he had all my information. 

The Chime rep also provided a customer service warning : " I always try to tell my customers to never use the card at gas stations. '' The card was used that day at XXXX XXXX  for the amount of {$48.00} at XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, XXXX, IL XXXX, presumably where the Chime account information had initially been extracted. He also said that a person by the name of " XXXX XXXX from XXXX, FL '' used the account at XXXX and other locations. This contradicts the initial alert, which stated the origin city as XXXX, TX.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally address an issue concerning the reporting of my account to the major credit reporting agencies. I entered into a loan agreement with XXXX XXXX. A tradeline reflecting this account was added to my credit reports shortly thereafter. my first payment was reported to the credit bureaus. However, since that date, no subsequent payments or updated balances have been reported. This lack of accurate and complete reporting has negatively impacted my credit scores and does not reflect my current payment history or account status. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requires that information furnished to consumer reporting agencies be complete and accurate. The withholding of payment and balance histories constitutes a violation of this obligation.
