Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: Capio Partners, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
XXXX. I have had a collection account ASSETCARE LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  File number XXXX disputed several different times with XXXX. The collection amount shows {$630.00}. 

When it first appeared on my XXXX  report two years ago I called the collection company and asked them to send me the information regarding the charges to verify accuracy. They refused to speak with me unless I provided my social security number. I disputed the account with XXXX  and they removed it from my credit. 

One year later the same collection account appeared on my XXXX report. I disputed it again and was told by XXXX  that they verified it to be accurate. XXXX  refused to provide me with the documentation that the company sent to XXXX  to prove this was my account. However, XXXX  removed it from my credit report. 

This same collection account appeared on my credit report this year. Again I disputed with XXXX  and they have returned the dispute as a verified account. 

I believe this collection account to be fraudulent. Every time the collection account has been added to my XXXX  report they have changed the date which says when the account was opened. This current account is stating it was opened XX/XX/XXXX. Clearly, this is not accurate since I have attempted to dispute this account for two years. The initial collection from the XXXX  report believe says it was opened in XX/XX/XXXX. 

I have no knowledge of this account and have never been provided with a bill for services. I would like XXXX  to remove the collection account from my credit report.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Problem with a purchase or transfer — Charged for a purchase or transfer you did not make with the card
Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, 2020, I purchased an open-loop visa gift card from XXXX 's grocery store. The Visa gift card is issued by US Bank National Association. The card failed activation and appeared to be tampered with. When I called to report the card tampered, I was told that funds would be frozen and a new card issued to me. The new, personalized replacement card arrived on XXXX XXXX, 2020. When the new card arrived, the balance in the XXXX stated " your balance is XXXX dollars. '' I checked the card activity and purchases were made 100+ miles from my home on XXXX XXXX, 2020. The card had been tampered with, and someone who gained unauthorized access to the card drained the funds that were supposed to have been frozen by US Bank. 

I have called the phone number on the card at least 25 times. I have received a pick up from a human being to assist with this problem only twice. Both times, the system automatically hung up on me either during " transfer to the appropriate department '' or while the CSR was speaking to me. In both cases, the time holding before a human picked up the line was 6 minutes or more. In at least 5 cases, I have been on hold for 5-10 minutes only to be hung up on by the system. On at least 10 occasions, I have had what seemed like someone pick up on the other end of the line, but I can not hear anyone speaking -- just a static sound as if I were listening to someone's cell phone inside their pockets. 

US Bank irresponsibly failed to freeze the funds on my card when it was reported, and now it is impossible to speak with someone to put in a dispute for the funds to be returned. As a result, I am seeking help from the CFPB.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX my wife and I were returning an item at the XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, CA. In hind sight we can only assume our HSBC credit card was lost at that location. At approximately XXXX XXXX. I received a text from HSBC indicating there are suspicious charges on my credit card account. I contacted HSBC immediately and was informed someone had used our HSBC card twice at a XXXX 's store in XXXX XXXX, CA., one charge for {$500.00} and another for {$1000.00}. The card was closed and thus an investigation started. I contacted HSBC the next day to ask them how to proceed. I was told the investigation would take approximately 90 days to complete. I waited. Around the XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted HSBC and was told the investigation was still ongoing and to wait another week. I contacted them again a week later and was told the same thing again. I pressed for more information and was told I needed to complete a police report. I filed an online report XXXX # XXXX ) and again waited another week. On XX/XX/XXXX HSBC told me the investigator had talked to the XXXX  detective and that the detective would be calling me. Proactively I contacted Detective XXXX XXXX of the XXXX Police Dept. who told me he had no questions for me. Detective XXXX further indicated that the investigator he spoke with mentioned the charges were indeed fraud. I contacted HSBC again to speak with XXXX XXXX unknown last name ) the investigator. He was not available and after be assured on three separate phone calls that XXXX would be returning my call, he has never done so. On XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with HSBC investigator XXXX who told me to submit a complaint in writing to a PO box in New York. I sent a certified letter on XX/XX/XXXX to the address I was given and it was returned today with a NS # which I assume is no-such number. To date this remains unresolved and I have had NO communication in writing or a phone call from HSBC. ALL communication has been initiated by me.
