Complaint narrative:
Recently, I did an investigation on my credit report and found several inquiries on my report to be false and inaccurate.

State: NJ

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 TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

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: NY

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request the refund of the credit balance on my account, which has been pending since early 2023. The credit balance in question amounts to {$21000.00}, and despite multiple requests for the balance to be refunded, Capital One has failed to issue the refund. 

On XX/XX/year>, an amount of {$21000.00} was removed from my account as a purchase adjustment. However, this adjustment was invalid, as it did not reflect a legitimate transaction. Following this, I reached out several times to request the refund, but my requests have not been fulfilled. 

In a response dated XX/XX/year>, you stated that the reason for withholding the refund was an ongoing investigation into the account, which has not yet been completed. Since more than a year has passed since that response, and the investigation has not been concluded, I am requesting immediate resolution of this matter. The continued delay in issuing my refund is unacceptable.

Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ), which governs credit card billing and disputes, I am entitled to a timely and accurate resolution of credit balances. Specifically, the FCBA mandates that credit card issuers must issue refunds for overpayments or excess credit balances within a reasonable timeframe. This includes situations where the account has been overpaid or where the balance exceeds the actual amount owed. 
Furthermore, as outlined in the Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act ( CARD Act ), credit card companies are prohibited from engaging in unfair practices related to the handling of customer accounts. This includes withholding funds or delaying refunds without a valid or substantiated reason. The continued refusal to refund my credit balance, without providing any clear or reasonable justification, appears to be a violation of these laws.

Complaint narrative:
My account withXXXX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 to be 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.

TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


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!

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Complaint narrative:
I want to close the PayPal account, and I keep getting the run around about closing a non-existent savings account. I closed the account on XX/XX/XXXX. That account closed and the {$0.00} balance was placed in the PayPal account. I then had to donate the funds to zero the PayPal account before it could be closed, and yet they still say I have an active PayPal savings account. I have requested supervisors only to be placed on extended hold for the calls to never be picked up. only disconnected, I have been transferred to the " savings '' department several times to close the non-existent savings account, and so I am getting the run around. The savings account team can see the account was closed on the XXXX of XXXX but PayPal refuses to allow me to close the account due to an " active '' savings account. At this point it is nothing more that a fraud.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance with multiple inaccuracies on my credit report that have adversely impacted my credit standing. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues directly with both creditors and credit reporting agencies, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. These inaccuracies include erroneous information regarding account details, duplicated accounts, outdated collection entries, incorrect open or closed account statuses, and unauthorized inquiries, all of which create a misleading portrayal of my creditworthiness. I kindly ask the CFPB to require the involved parties to correct, delete, or update the disputed information on my credit report in line with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), so that my credit report can reflect my accurate financial history. I am attaching supporting documents and I look forward to your assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this request.
