Issue: Incorrect information on credit report — Account terms

Complaint narrative:
The credit card company erroneously charged me interest on my account, after the account was paid in full, did n't provide notice of the interest so kept charging more minimum interest. After 30 days past due, they sent me an email, so I immediately submitted payment. 

1 ) New credit card, with a new charge on XXXX/XXXX/16 in the amount of {$200.00}. 
2 ) Payment cycle is on the XXXX of the month, so this payment was due XXXX/XXXX/16. 
3 ) I forgot payment right away so they charged my {$25.00} late fee, which I was fine with. 
4 ) Once I received notice that this was late I submitted payment for the full balance owed of {$230.00}. That payment posted on XXXX/XXXX/16, according to their website. So, on XXXX/XXXX/16 I had a {$0.00} balance. 
5 ) It looks like on XXXX/XXXX/16 they charged a {$4.00} interest fee. I dispute this fee since I had paid my CC balance in full, which was posted on XXXX/XXXX/16, a day before the cycle ends. 
6 ) I did not receive notice of this {$4.00} interest charge so was under the impression my account was paid in full. 
7 ) On XXXX/XXXX/16, they charged me a minimum interest payment of {$2.00}. Again, I was unaware of this transaction since I thought my account was paid in full and did not receive notice. 
8 ) On XXXX/XXXX/16, they again charged me a minimum interest payment of {$2.00}. Again, I was unaware of this transaction since I thought my account was paid in full and did not receive notice. 
9 ) On XXXX/XXXX/16 I receive an email from XXXX XXXX informing me that my account is past due. I was confused, but worried about my credit score I immediately logged in and submitted payment for the full balance. 
10 ) On XXXX/XXXX/16, I started receiving notice from Credit monitoring companies of the late payment they reported. To my knowledge, they have reported 60+ days late to Experian and 30+ late to XXXX. I am unsure of XXXX since I do not subscribe to them, but if so I would like that record to be fixed as well, please. 
11 ) On XXXX/XXXX/16, my payment posted for the {$8.00} of interest that they charged me on XXXX/XXXX/16, XXXX/XXXX/16, and XXXX/XXXX/16. 
12 ) I am requesting reimbursement of all erroneous interest charges. I dispute the XXXX/XXXX/16 charge since my account was paid in full by the time the XXXX/XXXX/16 interest was assessed. I dispute the XXXX and XXXX interest charges since they were the result of the erroneous XXXX/XXXX/16 interest being charged. 
13 ) I am also requesting all erroneous reports to the credit bureaus to be fixed. My credit score has gone down XXXX points as a result of these erroneous reports.

Complaint narrative:
There was a fire in a home I owned. My homeowners insurance company ( XXXX ) sent a check to my mortgage company ( XXXX ) for {$42000.00} that was supposed to be given to me to rebuild my home, or used to pay down my mortgage. With it, they included a letter to XXXX Stating that if more money was needed to pay off my loan, that all that needed to be done was for them to ask for the rest of the money. I never received a copy of the check or letter. XXXX cashed the check but never credited my mortgage account. My original loan amount when I bought the house was {$62000.00}. I had paid it down to {$58000.00}. The check from state farm for {$42000.00}, was supposed to bring my balance down to {$16000.00}, but XXXX never credited my account. They also could have asked XXXX for the remainder of the money, or at least informed me of the check and letter, so I could have asked XXXX for the rest of it. Year after year, XXXX reported to all 3 credit bureaus that I had not made any new payments to my mortgage, and that the balance was still {$58000.00}, when in fact they DID CASH the check for {$42000.00} and so my balance was actually only {$16000.00}. I made over 60 calls to XXXX attempting to get them to correct the balance on my account and no one was able to. I took it all the way to the office of the President at XXXX. Eventually, XXXX fraudulently Sold the entire amount of my loan ( {$62000.00} ) to a 3rd part loan servicing company called XXXX. XXXX, ALSO reported to all 3 credit burreaus that I then owed them {$62000.00}. I also contacted them MANY times to tell them that I already paid it down to {$16000.00}. Despite my sending the credit bureaus a 2 sided copy of the check from XXXX that XXXX cashed, they still refused to remove the item from my credit report. I would like all negative items from XXXX and XXXX removed from my credit report. The copy of the check that was cashed by XXXX is attached. Also attached is my credit report. Please note the XXXX item is on page 3 and the same item as reported by XXXX is on page 10.

Complaint narrative:
Received a call from XXXX about suspect acct inquiry. They cancelled card, and issued a new XXXX. On XXXX/XXXX/2015, I made a " freecreditreport '' request with Experian. Provided identifiers, they said that I had already requested a recent credit report ( had n't for well over a year ), that I would be charged {$1.00}. Because XXXX call, I agreed for the {$1.00} charge, even though I know I had not requested a free report recently. I got the report the same day/time. While reconciling our XXXX XXXX account on XXXX/XXXX/2015, I noticed a charge on XXXX/XXXX/2015 for {$21.00} from Experian Creditreport. I contacted a live person with Experian, with the assistance of a XXXX XXXX representative. She said that I signed up for credit monitoring, and I did n't cancel before the end of the " grace period ''. I informed her that I only wanted the free credit report, and reluctantly agreed to the {$1.00} charge even though I had not requested a free credit report recently. She again told me that I had not " cancelled '' within the grace period, but she would " cancel '' my account. She refused to provide a refund of the {$21.00}. First, I have not requested a free credit report in well over a year, I should have been entitled to a free report. Second, I did not knowingly sign up for " credit monitoring ''. I am generally pretty conscientious of " reading the fine print ''. If that was somehow buried in the web page that is very deceptive to the average consumer. {$21.00} is not going to break me. How many times has Experian conned consumers out of {$21.00}, or worse if consumers do n't reconcile their credit card accounts every month. Require Experian and other credit bureaus to accurately represent prior free credit report requests, and if they are equally abusive to the public to clearly state what services they provide and the fees to be charged for those services.

Issue: Unable to get credit report/credit score — Problem getting my free annual report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I requested my free annual credit report from Experian. I got a message saying, " A condition exists that prevents Experian from being able to accept your request at this time. 
To obtain your Experian annual credit report, please mail your request to the address below using the Annual Credit Report Requestform. '' As this happened on repeated attempts over several days, I began to see a pattern. This is the third year that I have been unable to obtain my credit report on line from Experian. This has also happened to me with Equifax. The circumstances are the same. I believe the credit reporting companies are discouraging people from using the on line report service. They direct you to print a paper form and provide XXXX forms of paper Identification. Most people, I believe simply throw up their hands and give up when faced with the additional requirements. 

Please investigate this apparent abuse of the Free Credit Reporting Act.
