Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
This dispute arises from an all-inclusive hotel reservation at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, booked through XXXX. The hotel was the source of a significant health crisis that sickened hundreds of guests, rendering it unsafe for occupancy. Despite XXXX XXXX agreeing to issue a full refund without penalty, XXXX has refused to honor this refund, citing policies that are no longer applicable under these extenuating circumstances. 

I initiated a dispute with Capital One, and the representative that assisted me selected a Visa reason code XXXX  : Cancelled Merchandise/Services which is apparently not applicable to the circumstances of this case. I wrote Capital One to formally request the reclassification of my dispute under Visa Reason Code XXXX : Merchandise/Services Not Received, though they have not been helpful in assisting me, and provide the same computer-generated automated dispute update letters within a 2-minute timeframe, making it clear that no human being is involved in the review process or acknowledging my request. Contacting Capital One by phone has not been helpful, as I end up speaking with agents that speak over me with smoke alarm low battery warnings chirping in the background, like I'm speaking with someone working from home and isn't engaged in finding a resolution.

Complaint narrative:
I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries and inaccurate personal information made or reported without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about!

Complaint narrative:
I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

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 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.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern and the Department of Education I am writing to formally dispute multiple violations related to my student loan account, including unauthorized access, improper loan reporting, and unlawful restrictions on my repayment options. These violations have directly impacted my financial standing and legal rights under federal law. 

XXXX. **Data Breach and Privacy Violation** It has come to my attention that XXXX XXXX  and other sources has accessed my student loan information, which constitutes an unauthorized disclosure and a direct violation of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ( FERPA ) . This breach has compromised my personal financial data, violating my right to privacy under federal law. Furthermore, XXXX has reported that my private loan details have been improperly handled, further exacerbating these violations. 

XXXX. **Illegal Restrictions on Forbearance and Deferment** I have been informed that XXXX XXXX has stated that forbearance and deferment are not permitted. This is in direct violation of the Higher Education Act, which explicitly provides borrowers with the right to request forbearance or deferment under qualifying circumstances. Denying me these legal options violates my rights as a borrower and imposes undue financial hardship.

3. **Unlawful Late Payment Reporting** My student loan servicer has reported late payments without proper notification, which is a violation of 15 U.S.C. 1666 ( b ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Under these regulations, I must be given adequate notice before any negative information is furnished to credit bureaus. The failure to adhere to these requirements has caused unnecessary damage to my credit profile. 

Given these serious infractions, I request immediate corrective action, including : - A full investigation into the unauthorized access of my student loan records. 
- The immediate correction of any inaccurately reported late payments and the removal of any negative marks resulting from the improper reporting. 
- Restoration of my right to request forbearance or deferment in accordance with federal law. 
- Written confirmation of the steps taken to address these violations within 30 days of receipt of this letter. 

If these issues are not resolved promptly, I will explore further legal options, including filing complaints with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), and the U.S. Department of Justice. 

Please consider this letter a formal dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and other applicable federal regulations. I expect a response addressing these matters at your earliest convenience.
