Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: Zions Debt Holdings
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
While applying for a home loan I discovered that I had a collection reporting from a Zion debt which i did not recognize so I contacted the company to see who they were and when I had an agreement with them and for what services ; and I was only transferred and kept on hold. I have tried for days to get this resolved with the company so that I can move forward with my home purchase but I am not getting a response from them anymore. 
I believe that is account is due to fraud ( which also happened around the time this account was opened ) and would like for it to be removed form all of my credit files. 
This is causing my credit to be adversely affected and preventing me from obtaining a home loan to purchase my home.

" Method of Verification Dispute Notice : Remove these Fraudulent Accounts, Inquiries & Inaccurate Personal Information.

The banking system is contingent upon equitable and accurate credit reporting, as stated in the equitable Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ). The banking system 's efficacy is directly impacted by inaccurate credit reports, and the public 's confidence is undermined by unfair credit reporting methods, which are essential for the system 's continued operation.

Therefore, the efficiency of the finance system is compromised whenever the FCRA is violated. This is a violation of my privacy with respect to my consumer report, as I have the authority to determine which items are included and which are not. Identity theft is the act of reporting any accounts without my written consent.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This results in civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n. The law permits a {$1000.00} fine per violation for each account listed without my expressed written assent.

I reviewed my consumer reports and observed accounts that I had never granted anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have taken on a critical role and are obligated to report consumer information with the utmost accuracy, as the Fair Credit Reporting Act explicitly stipulates. I did not provide written consent to report them. I am expressing my dissatisfaction with the contents of the attached file.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I rented an XXXX XXXX for XXXX in XXXX XXXX XXXX FL. 
I used my chase credit card. 
I paid the first payment of {$2900.00} on XX/XX/year>. 
I paid the second payment of {$3000.00} on XX/XX/year>. 
On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX the ceiling fell through in XXXX of the bedrooms while we were sleeping. 
I contacted XXXX XXXX  immediately after the incident and the hosts at XXXX. 
The owner of the home who is a XXXX host reached out to me and stated they would provide us with a full refund, and will allow us to finish our stay as long as they can fix the ceiling while we were there. We agreed. I have this conversation as documentation. 
I came home and contacted XXXX who stated they would not honor what the host had promised because the host was not answering their inquiries about the refund. 
This is the response from the XXXX XXXX  : I've given her a XXXX deadline. Should she remain unresponsive, there is nothing I can do, and I can only take this as her refusal. 
And then they closed the case. 
I contacted chase and filed a dispute. 
Chase contacted me today and denied my dispute. The chase representative told me it was denied because the host wrote full refund and not the actual dollar amount and because my cc information was not provided to the host to process the refund. The chase rep also told me the dispute was not valid as a quality issue because we completed our stay. I told her i wasnt disputing our stay because of a quality issue i was disputing it because i was told by the hosts i would be receiving a full refund and i have not been fully refunded. The chase representative told me that there was nothing else she could do for me. 
The host had my cc information already from when i booked the property and stating full refund is representative of the dollar amount.

Complaint narrative:
I have an ongoing issue with an outstanding hospital bill that I am refusing to pay. 

On XXXX XX/XX/year>, I went to XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX for a XXXX ( most likely XXXX XXXXXXXX from previous trip to XXXX ). I was seeking to see a doctor for simple medication. Soon after I was admitted to the triage room and when asked if I had insurance ( I said yes ), they admitted me into ER. There, I was subjected to an XXXX XXXX ( where no blood was drawn or any glucose injected ), CT scan and XXXX hrs. of my time. The result was simple nothing wrong/ no dehydration/ no blood work result, suspected food poisoning. I was handed a script and left. 

This procedure was totally unnecessary, I was exposed to unnecessary XXXX from CT scan ; they did not listen to me when I requested, I just need to see a general practitioner for a script. 

The hospital bill is {$2100.00}, and a will not be paying it. I will of course, pay for my urgent care visit as expected of but not the ER component. 

I keep getting letters from different dept XXXXllectors, no one at XXXX can help me or put me in touch with some who I can complain directly.

Complaint narrative:
I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Complaint narrative:
I never ended up using the account after I opened it with my initial {$25.00} deposit. Once I realized there was a monthly fee, I tried to close the account. I got a new phone number so I was unable to complete the XXXX. They want me to confirm my account number, but the number is not listed on the statement they send and I can't view it without being able to log in. They also ask my for my " pass code phrase '', but I don't remember ever setting that up. The account is now overdrawn and they are going to continue charging the monthly fee. They are not working with me on any sort of resolution to verify my identity. I don't think it's fair for them to keep charging me a monthly fee while not allowing me to close the account.
