Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
A fraudulent credit card was opened in my name with Comenity Bank/My Place rewards in around XX/XX/2022 with a balance of {$2300.00}. 

I learned and made a complaint in XX/XX/2022. I contacted the bank to start an initial dispute and to have the account closed. The bank responded saying the account stands with no further information of the investigation they conducted. 

The account is still fraudulent and negatively impacts my credit score.

Company: NISSAN MOTOR ACCEPTANCE COMPANY LLC
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Good morning, I bought a Nissan Truck in XX/XX/XXXX and Made on time payments for close to a year. I changed my due date around XX/XX/XXXX and proceeded to change my Auto Pay as well. However, something went wrong and it didnt go through on the website. I ended up missing payments for a couple months and was NOT notified by Nissan Motor Finance Company ( NMAC ). I never got any emails, texts, mail, or any else regarding this issue. The first time I noticed my Auto Pay didnt go through was when XXXX notified that my credit score had plummeted. I immediately paid off my debt and have not missed a payment since. This is most frustrating because I have not missed a payment on any account my entire life. If anyone could offer any assistance into this issue it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Product: Debt collection — Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Credova Holdings Inc
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, located at XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, CA XXXX, for posting a late payment to my credit report when the debt is no longer owed due to their multiple violations of federal laws, including the FCRA and the Debt Collection Act of Texas. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX transferred my loan multiple times without my agreement and without providing me with a new contract to sign. They did not provide me with all the necessary documentation regarding the transfer of the loan, including who the new servicer was, if the payments were going to remain the same, and the new balance I would owe. As a result of their actions, they owe me {$30000.00}. 

Furthermore, their actions have caused me significant harm, including reduced credit and financial damages. I demand that they close out this loan because their violations are now more than what the loan is worth. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has violated multiple state and federal laws, including : The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) The Debt Collection Act of Texas The Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act The Truth in Lending Act The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act The Electronic Funds Transfer Act The Uniform Commercial Code XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 's multiple violations of these laws have caused me significant harm, and I demand that they be held accountable for their actions.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I reviewed my credit report on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX, Transunion and XXXX. I discovered I have fraudulent credit accounts appearing on my credit report. This is not my account and I have submitted fraud claim to XXXX, Transunion, and XXXX. You are to remove this fraud account immediately before i pursue legal action. Under federal regulations this does not qualify as a " valid verification of debt ". I have previously sent you a request to validate my debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and all I received was an itemized list of the alleged charges you claim I owe you. This does not meet the Federal Trade Commissions guidelines of what constitutes proper debt validation. In addition, in the case of Spears Vs. Brennan ( IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF INDIANA, No. 49A02-0003-CV-169 ), the court ruled that : 15 U.S.C . 1692g ( b ) ( emphasis added ). On XX/XX/XXXX nineteen days after the date of Brennans debt collection letter, XXXX counsel XXXX sent XXXX a letter declaring that XXXX disputes your debt collection-related allegations, denies the same, and demands strict proof and verification thereof. Record at 21. As such, XXXX should have ceased his debt collection efforts immediately upon receiving that letter. Instead, XXXX proceeded to obtain a default judgment against XXXX on the debt collection claim before he had mailed XXXX the necessary verification and, thus, violated 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). XXXX maintains, however, that there was no violation of the FDCPA because he sent adequate verification of the debt [ to XXXX ] in the XX/XX/XXXX notice of claim. Brief of Appellee at 13. Specifically, XXXX claims that a copy of the consumer credit contract between XXXX and XXXX XXXX attached to the notice of claim provided sufficient verification of the debt within the meaning of 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). We can not agree. The contract in no way provides sufficient verification of the debt. A review of the document reveals that it identifies only the terms of XXXX loan, including a 17.99 % annual interest rate and the original loan amount of {$2500.00}. The loan agreement contains no accounting of any payments made by XXXX, the dates on which those payments were made, the interest which had accrued, or any late fees which had been assessed once XXXX stopped making the required payments. Indeed, the existing unpaid contract balance at the time XXXX sent the debt collection notice was at least {$350.00} more than the original loan amount.

XXXX XXXX has changed the remarks back to collection and the address that they are reporting from is a Virginia address.
