Complaint narrative:
These entries are incorrect and do not accurately reflect my actual payment history. I have made multiple attempts to get these discrepancies investigated and corrected, yet no meaningful action has been taken. Despite providing all necessary documentation and following up several times, these errors remain unresolved. This ongoing issue has caused financial XXXX  and has taken a serious toll on my well-being. Dealing with these inaccurate entries has been frustrating and exhausting. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to a credit report that accurately represents my financial history. This includes the prompt correction of outdated or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate action to update or remove these late payment entries, as failing to do so is a direct violation of my rights under federal law. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a resolution as soon as possible.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
I received a text from a third party collection agency stating there is an account balance that is delinquent. This is not something I knew existed previously, nor did I give consent for them to text this information to my phone number. I have not received any communication until now from the medical facility or the collection agency. As a previous collector this seems inappropriate at best as a way of communicating, especially with XXXX contact prior to this text. The entire bill, balance, and collection notice was included in this text. Something I was unaware existed, and have no idea what the balance itself is from. My daughter and I have a lot of medical problems. I have a bank account set up for all medical bills. If I am aware of a bill it gets paid.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding an alleged debt they claim to own. I requested debt validation under my rights provided by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). Specifically, I requested the following documentation : Forward flow agreement Chain of assignment Purchase agreement Insurance claim of debt ( if applicable ) My original signed agreement with the creditor XXXX failed to provide these documents and only sent a billing statement from Comenity Bank. A billing statement does not constitute legal proof of ownership of the debt or my obligation to pay. 

Without proper validation, this debt remains unverified. Despite this, XXXX continues to attempt collection and/or report the debt to the credit bureaus. 
I have attached the documents XXXX sent me instead of validation. 

I am requesting that your office : Require XXXX XXXX XXXX to provide proper validation of this debt, OR Cease all collection activity and remove any negative reporting from my credit reports. 

I appreciate your assistance in resolving this matter.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: AE

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I made a promotional purchase of {$1000.00} with CareCredit/Synchrony Bank . The promotion terms stated that if the balance was paid in full within 18 months ( by XX/XX/XXXX ), no interest would be charged. 

By XX/XX/XXXX, I had reduced the balance to {$140.00}. My billing due date is always on the XXXX of the month, and I continued paying my minimum payments as usual. In XXXX, I paid the minimum payment, and I did not realize that if the full balance was not paid by the expiration date, all deferred interest would be added. Did not get any mail with this information. 

On the following statement, I was charged {$320.00} in interest on top of the small balance, which I believe is unfair and disproportionate. When I tried to pay the the remaining balance before the expiration date, Synchrony told me multiple times that they could not verify my identity. Try contact agin on XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX. As the spouse of an XXXX XXXX XXXX service member, I live XXXX which makes it difficult to communicate and also prevents me from using the Synchrony app ( it blocks logins from abroad for security reasons ). 

On Monday, XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted the company again via live chat for over XXXX hours. They left me waiting for long periods, only to tell me once again that nothing can be done. This was extremely frustrating, because I have made good faith efforts to resolve the account. 

I only want to pay the amount I legitimately owed, not hundreds of dollars in back interest that I was prevented from paying due to the companys own restrictions. Please help me.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX  capital one bank contacted me at XXXX in an attempt to collect a debt at which time I told them I would make a payment in a week. At XXXX XXXX XXXX they again contacted me about the same debt at this time I began to record the call just as they were and as soon as they were made aware that the call was being recorded they terminated the call without notice and then immediately disconnected the number so I could not call back. I attempted to contact capital one bank directly to discuss this matter and again when I informed them the call was being recorded they refused to speak with me on the matter and tried to have me cease the recording stating that they can not talk to me about it if the call is being recorded by me. The way it looks to me is that they are trying to avoid any legal responsibility for violating the 7 in 7 rule set in place to protect consumers from harassment and or to attempt to be deceitful knowing that if the call is not being recorded they have a better chance of not getting caught.
