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: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I was charged {$200.00} from my credit card through an airline that was supposed to be an authorization since we had a membership bundle that included a free bag that we could claim for our flight. Come to learn the clerk accidentally charged me this amount. 

After contacting the airline two weeks later, we were told that we were indeed not supposed to be charged. However, they told us we could not refund us since the payment was made overseas and the best option we had was to contact our bank and get a refund. 

After an extensive back and forth and documents being sent from our end and an audio transcript of my call with the agent, Barclays Bank took about XXXX weeks for our case. At the end, they did not give us any reasoning into why my dispute was unresolved against my favor. We had a screenshot from the airlines support agent, and we sent Barclays an audio transcript of our conversation with an agent. However, they still did not give me any concrete reason or proof as to why they did not find me eligible for my dispute

Complaint narrative:
This is the second time credit acceptance reprocessed even though there was a payment arrangement that we met every time. How is this even possible in America for this company to get away with constantly demanding money after we have paid for the vehicle 3 times over. Especially since credit acceptance knew we could not afford the vehicle for the terms and took advantage of us. They continued to report us late each month even though we had payment arrangements. Our last payment was in XXXX and before we could make a payment for XXXX not even a whole month passed before processing of our last payment and Credit Acceptance reprocessed our vehicle. How are they getting away with doing stuff like this to American people? This is complete fraud.

i sent Experian a Dispute letter on XX/XX/year> and my profile is still not updated. 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) There is a need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy.

Pursuant to the FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ), I am a federally protected consumer, and I have a right to privacy. Not granting me my rights is in direct violation of 15 USC 1681 and all its subsections.

With the amount of identity theft going on, I am very fearful that someone could mistakenly identify me as someone else with this incorrect information on my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Unauthorized Credit Reporting and Demand for Resolution Reference to Federal and XXXX Missouri Laws Dear WAKEFIELD & ASSOCIATES, I am writing to address the unauthorized reporting of information to my credit report, as confirmed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under Sections 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), 1681c ( a ) ( 2 ), and 1681s-2 ( a ), and relevant identity fraud laws, including those specific to XXXX Missouri. 

It has come to my attention that WAKEFIELD & ASSOCIATES has engaged in unauthorized reporting to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent. Federal law, as outlined in the FCRA, mandates consumer consent for such reporting activities under Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ). 

Additionally, XXXX, Missouri, laws governing identity theft and fraud emphasize the need for consumer authorization in any activity involving personal financial information. Violations of these laws, including the misuse or unauthorized disclosure of credit data, can result in severe legal consequences, both under state and federal statutes. 

I assert that I have not provided consent for WAKEFIELD & ASSOCIATES to report any information to my credit report. This lack of explicit permission constitutes a violation of my rights, resulting in potential damage to my creditworthiness and an undeniable breach of both federal and state laws. 

I demand that WAKEFIELD & ASSOCIATES immediately ceases any further reporting of information to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent, as mandated by Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) of the FCRA and applicable XXXX, Missouri, identity theft laws. Failure to comply within the stipulated 30-day timeframe will be viewed as willful noncompliance, subject to penalties under both federal and state laws. 

I emphasize that obtaining consent is a legal obligation, not a discretionary action, under the specific sections of the FCRA and XXXX, Missouri, identity theft fraud laws. This is not a negotiation but a demand for compliance with the regulations protecting consumers from unauthorized credit reporting. 

I anticipate your immediate attention to this matter and expect that WAKEFIELD & ASSOCIATES will promptly rectify these violations, respecting my rights under both federal and state laws. 

Done in good faith.
