Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request validation of a collection account referenced in a recent letter I received. Under my rights granted by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am asking your office to provide proper documentation verifying that this debt is valid. 

This includes the name of the original creditor, the total amount owed, a complete payment history, and proof that I am legally responsible for the account. I am making this request to confirm that the information being reported is accurate and not the result of an error, misunderstanding, or fraudulent activity. Until full validation is provided, I request that all collection efforts and credit reporting related to this account be suspended, as permitted by law.

Complaint narrative:
My accounts were consistently payed! I possess an excellent payment record, and all payments were arranged on autopay. The transaction was handled incorrectly on their side, which is the reason for this late payment being reported. 

I request the update of the reported late payment. 

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

Complaint narrative:
I am contacting you again regarding a previous dispute I filed, for which I have received no adequate response and have seen no corrections reflected on my credit report. Despite ongoing monitoring, the inaccurate items I challenged are still being reported. This leads me to believe that TransUnion and Equifax failed to conduct a proper reinvestigation as required under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 611 ( a ) ( 6 ) ( B ) ( iii ).

You have reported inaccurate and unauthorized accounts on my credit report, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) requiring a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates maximum possible accuracy. These false entries are damaging and unjust, especially since Ive never opened or authorized these accounts. If you fail to investigate and correct this, I may pursue legal action under the FCRA and FDCPA ( 15 U.S. Code 1692e ) for deceptive and misleading reporting.

The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file!

All of the aforementioned accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be no confusion or stall tactics on your end.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I was charged by XXXX on XXXX for a reservation that the vendor could not locate when we arrived, so we booked directly through the vendor but XXXX had already charged the insurance fee. I tried to cancel my booking but i could not find my reservation anywhere. so i disputed the charge with my bank, in which citibank gave me a conditional credit for. they determined that I lost the dispute, so upon reversing the conditional credit, citibank performed the reversal TWICE, thus resulting in XXXX the charge. I paid what I owed and left the rest and citibank refuses to fix it, passing me around from person to person for 5 months. I re-opened the dispute once the double charge was discovered, at which they cited that it was too late for a dispute to be considered even though it was their duplicate charge. charge still remains, with interest adding up.

State: AL

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. ''

Company: Chime Financial Inc
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I have been charged {$39.00} and XXXX at least 6 times for XXXXXXXX for the past 6 months. I have filed at least three disputes with Chime and have been denied each time. Chime refuses to tell me who XXXX is. The representative asked me to XXXX who XXXX, and I told him I did, and there is no company by that name. Apparently, when I said that, it meant I could not dispute it through the only channel he considers I have. I have filed at least three disputes. The first one was approved, the second and third were not. In the third dispute reply, Chime stated they would add the approved dispute back to the denial.

I have contacted my vendors and creditors, and I can not figure out who it is. To me, this comes across as a pretty effective way to scam someone who appears vulnerable and unable to do anything about it. 

Could you please help me get my money back, and/or tell me who XXXX is? If they are a fraudster, I will happily participate in any legal action you take.
