Consumer complaint received 2024-09-18 00:00:00
Product: Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan — Title loan
Issue: Charged fees or interest you didn't expect — 
Company: CCF Intermediate Holdings LLC
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I borrowed a personal loan in the amount of {$2500.00} from Instaloan/TitleMax in XXXX of XXXX. 

I've not missed a payment and pay monthly. I've relocated from XXXX, Florida to XXXX, Maryland in XX/XX/XXXX and have continued to make payments each month. 

In XXXX of XXXX, I spoke with XXXX, the store manager at the XXXX XXXX location informing him that I would be making 2 payments that month to try and get the interest down and get closer to the principal amount. When asking him how it would work, XXXX told me that after each {$100.00} dollars, I pay, {$100.00} would go towards the principal amount. 

This was a relief due to how long I've been trying to get it paid off. Not too long ago, I received an email from Instaloan staying that there would be an interest rate increase to 36 % for borrowers who borrowed on or after XX/XX/XXXX. 

Since I borrowed before this, I figured thus wouldn't effect me. 

2 days ago when I called to find out my payment for XXXX, I was told it would be {$300.00}. This didn't sound right to me, so I asked to speak to someone else and got XXXX. XXXX told me that he didn't know who gave me that info, but it was wrong. He stated that each month the loan is refinanced and unless I pay the original loan amount at once, none of my payments would apply to the loan. I told him that this makes it difficult to pay it off and that I would like to surrender the vehicle. I'm filing this complaint because I feel transparency has not been given and I request my case to be assessed for compliance based on the guidelines which govern title loan practices with consumers. Thank You, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment reported to be removed/updated.

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!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to follow up on a previous dispute I filed regarding a 30-day late payment that has been inaccurately reported on my credit report. The dispute was submitted on XX/XX/2024, and, to date, I have not received satisfactory proof that the late payment was accurately reported.

I am requesting the following information as it pertains to the resolution of my dispute : The name of the person who conducted the initial investigation for my dispute dated XX/XX/2024. 
All documentation, records, and proof used in the investigation and verification of the reported late payment. This includes any communication between the creditor and the credit bureau that substantiates the reported information.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to dispute inaccurate information on my credit report, and it is the responsibility of the credit bureau to conduct a reasonable investigation and provide all relevant information used to verify the accuracy of the reporting.

Please note the following consumer rights that apply to my dispute : Section 611 of the FCRA ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) - This section outlines my right to dispute inaccurate information and your obligation to perform a reasonable reinvestigation within 30 days of receiving the dispute. It also requires that I be provided with the results of the investigation, including all supporting evidence.

Section 609 of the FCRA ( 15 U.S. Code 1681g ) - I have the right to request all information that you have in your file regarding the disputed account, including the identity of anyone who has accessed my credit report and any documents you used to validate the disputed information.
