Company: Incomm Holdings Inc.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Incomm Case : XXXX I received a gift card through a XXXX XXXX giveaway in XX/XX/year>. This card was serviced by Incomm. 

used said gift card and then an individual ( a hacker? ) filed a chargeback dispute and Incomm did very little investigating and did a chargeback against the merchant I used the card for then awarded a new gift card to said individual. I reached out to Incomm on XX/XX/XXXX and started an ownership dispute where they asked me to prove my identity and ownership of the card. In the process of this, they sent me the name and address of the individual who initiated the fraudulent charge back dispute in the first place. I have seen on forums that this situation was not unique to me. 

This situation had put my account with the merchant in poor standing and Incomm did nothing to help.

Company: Affirm Holdings, Inc
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Request for Immediate Reporting of Payments and Addressing Reporting Discrepancies Dear Affirm, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my concern regarding the current reporting practices of my account. Specifically, I have observed a disparity in the timeliness of reporting payments to credit bureaus. 

It has come to my attention that payments, especially those made to bring my account current, are not being reported promptly, specifically payments paid on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX & XXXX, XXXX. In contrast, delinquencies are reported immediately. This inconsistency is unfair and detrimental to my credit standing. 

I request that all payments, including those made to bring my account current, be reported to the credit bureaus immediately upon receipt. Accurate and timely reporting is crucial to ensure a fair reflection of my creditworthiness. I am requesting that you report all current payments to all XXXX credit bureaus immediately. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your immediate action to rectify this issue. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

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 each account listed without my expressed written consent. 
I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them. List all accounts : XXXX  - XXXX, "
