Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: FC HoldCo LLC

Complaint narrative:
I recently purchased a car through a dealership, XXXX XXXX. A few days after purchasing the vehicle the company who financed the vehicle, XXXX XXXX XXXX, called asking about the deal, where I was informed that the down payment XXXX XXXX asked for was double what I was suppose to pay. After clearing up that issue the week continued. After a week of documentations not being handled, returning the car for break issues, coming to the location about 4 times, and calls not being returned, the dealership gave me a call and asked me to come into the location to sign a missing document. When I arrived at the location I was informed that the finance company backed out the deal because of the down payment issue. I was told by the " finance manager '' that it was my fault the company back out because of the down payment issue. After reminding the man that he was the one who told me and my boyfriend, upon signing the contracts, to bring in the additional {$500.00} two weeks later, I asked to speak to a manager in a position over him. He informed me that they ran my credit again without my authorization and I had no choice, but to either pay the new doubled down payment and higher note through another company or give them the car in a few hours. I left the dealership and called the finance company who informed me the truth. The company had backed out the deal because the company sent over a warranty with someone else 's signature not mine. I also declined the warranty upon finalizing contracts when they asked if I wanted the warranty, they still proceeded to add the warranty after I left the dealership, without my knowledge. The finance company did send the warranty part of the contract, with my disclosed information on it. Also, after deciding to go look at other dealerships. I was informed by a few dealerships that XXXX XXXX " shot XXXX '' my credit everywhere, adding numerous inquiries to my credit. Two dealerships would n't offer to run my credit because of the numerous inquiries. The salesman from XXXX XXXX, then called me and told me to bring in the car his manager is leaving and that " they are doing me a favor. '' The manager would not even speak to me personally when coming in to get a refund. They made me speak to a salesman who never played a part in any of the issues & contracts, who basically tried to make me settle on two more contracts. I denied both contracts and opted to deal with another company.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE

Complaint narrative:
An account was opened and closed the same day with Barclays Bank XXXX. But an order for an XXXX computer went through the next day. The company sent the bill to the wrong address, the unlisted/unregistered house address instead of the XXXX. XXXX given. They started calling my work so much that the secretary said stop calling. She later notified me and I checked my credit report. It was on there as a negative late. I called and they argued asking if I purchased the computer. When I demanded they remove the late for or I would not pay, they said no problem. I asked for a letter payment date because of my job, the XXXX and they said okay. The next month the late fee was still there. I called. They said they changed it but I had to file a complaint with the credit reporting agencys and they would remove it. It was just a ploy to get me to admit to having purchased the product. I filed but then my mortgage broker said remove the dispute. So I did to find another late on the credit report. I called them and again they said they had removed it and the fees. They did remove the fees to my account but Only one late mark on my credit report! One late mark remains even though they credited my account and said they would fix it all. I have spoke with several representatives, the last was XXXX, who all but one stated they had been and would remove the late marks, it just takes time for the credit bearues to update the information. Yet, they still have not been removed. I recently resubmitted as XXXX stayed to do so that it would be sure to come off and be updated. 
Yet, the results were verified and updated, which is not removed. They also lowered my XXXX account with them due to the credit score changed by them. It is the only late mark on my 25+ years in the system! Honestly, the worst company I have ever dealt with in my life. They are crooks that will weasel every dollar!

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Diversified Consultants, Inc.
State: AE

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX began calling us on XX/XX/XXXX 2017, the claim was not identified at the time and the caller was extremely aggressive in trying to collect a debt of {$220.00}. Once I explained to them that we are stationed overseas so it was past XXXX ( XXXX local ) which violates their rules as well we have no idea the service because she did not identify the claim at hand. She was even more aggressive in trying to collect to which I cancelled the call and blocked the service provider. Since then we would still receive multiple calls from the service from different numbers throughout the morning and the course of the day and late into the evening. The calls became harassment very quickly with no information on the claim, finally I was able to force a caller to give us the claim information which came to XXXX XXXX XXXX under XXXX XXXX. The issue is we have never heard of this company and we only had one provider for the past 3 years how we contacted and said our account debt free since we left the country. The caller became angry and refused to give any information stating to google it ourselves and I cancelled the call. After speaking to all of our banking services and checking our credit reports we saw no sign of this magical debt we apparently owe.

Complaint narrative:
On our around the XX/XX/XXXX, 2017, I received a Lexis Nexis report in the mail. I do not know why I received this report. Some information on the report is inaccurate. I tried to call the number listed on the letter to inquire about why I was receiving the report. I gave them the case number listed on the cover letter of the report and they said they did not have that number on file. They then told me I would need to give them my social security number and other information to determine who had ordered the report. I refused. I 'm not sure where to go from here but I do not feel comfortable with the situation and I am having trouble finding information about why I would have received this report. I do not know where to go from here. 

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card — Store credit card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have been a home depot credit account holder since XXXX. I have always paid my credit card on time as agreed. 

Approximately around XXXX, I went to home depot as I would normally do to make some purchases. I proceeded to attempt to use my credit card that I have had with them for years, when it was suggested that I try to open up a new one for some type of promotional discount on my purchase. I told them I already had an account but they urged me to apply, and they specifically told me I would not be getting a new credit card account but instead just receiving a promotional card. I am a very limited English speaking consumer and I hesitated, however the representative assured me it would be fine. 

This is where this is all confusion to me, and I believe due to my limited English I am being taken advantage of. I have been trying to get to the bottom of how or what happened when an additional HOME DEPOT account was opened up on or about XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, and subsequently a small purchase of {$2.00} was made on this account. This purchase resulted in late fees rolling over for several months and late payments going on my credit report for those months. 

This all happened from XXXX - wherein I found out of this past due balance for {$11.00} to home depot that was completely shocking because I go to the home depot store every month and pay off my account in person, without fail. I spoke with HOME DEPOT to try to explain this account was not opened up with my authorization or intention, and I NEVER charge the account ever for {$2.00}. I believe this is fraud, however nobody at HOME DEPOT is willing to listen to me or help me get to the bottom of this. I am being severely injured by the derogatory lates they are reporting for a past due balance of {$2.00}.

Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — 
Company: Secure One Capital Corporation
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I had the worst experience with the sales manager, XXXX XXXX from Secure One Capital Corp. I called him on XXXX to get a {$50000.00} loan on my rental. I told him I needed to get a fast loan because I needed to pay at least {$28000.00} worth of debt. He said he could close my loan in 10 days ( it even says it on his email. ) The timing was critical. He said he could close it before XXXX. He talked me into getting an FHA loan and refinancing my current home ( which was 3 times that amount ). I agreed. On XXXX, he said we were almost clear to close. The next day, XXXX he told me I could n't do an FHA loan, and we had to go conventional, and I could only get {$21000.00} cash out. I was not happy, but he said he could close it right away. I needed the cash fast, so I agreed. I signed loan docs on XXXX. After my 3 day rescission was over, I contacted him asking if we were funding and closing. That date should of been XXXX. He started asking me questions on my rental property and other questions he could of asked weeks prior. He also asked me about inquiries on my credit report which he pulled on XXXX. After making me jump through hoops to get the loan closed, he informs me I could only get {$6900.00} in cash. That was on XXXX. Almost a whole month had gone by, he was asking me questions I should of been asked in the beginning. Needless to say, he does not know his job very well, and should n't be doing home loans. I ca n't express the stress he put me under and how he never called me, just emailed me. Had me sign. Lead me to believe my loan was closing. I could n't go through with the loan because it was n't enough money. I had to go to a hard money lender and get a fast bridge loan, and pay high points because oh him. He did n't even offer to pay me back for my appraisal of {$550.00} for screwing up so bad. It was his lack of knowledge that put me in such a bad situation. It became a hardship. His company should be paying me back my appraisal of {$550.00}, plus the points I had to pay on a hard money loan. He also never told me that I would have to pay 3 % in points for {$7000.00} until I received my settlement statement on XXXX. It was too late for me to back out because timing was critical.

Company: Bonneville Billing and Collections
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
I got a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX for a debt that I owe for some medical treatments I had done. That I thought my insurance was taking care of, but I had n't met my deductible, so they were n't. I did n't have a job, or a phone, and did n't receive phone calls from the manager. She did call family members and asked if they could get a hold of me, when they asked what for, she was rude with them and would n't tell them, just left a number. I did try to call back at the number she left and each attempt went to voicemail and I was unsure what she was calling about so I did not leave a message. 

Cut forward to XXXX XXXX. I receive a letter that said I had 7 days to pay the balance in full of {$210.00}. The letter is dated XXXX XXXX, I live in the same area, so there 's no reason it took a week to receive it. I assume it 's because Bonneville failed to put it in the mail that day, I wish I had the envelope still to see when the exact postage mark was. I called the day I received the letter at 11:44 am. I asked if I could have an extension until XXXX XXXX to pay the amount in full. The person I spoke with said that would be fine. Right before ending the call she said, " do you still work for ( previous employer. ) '' I replied that I do not. She asked for my current employer information and I said I did n't feel comfortable giving her that information because I did n't want my employer to receive harassing phone calls from their company, like my parents have. She said she needed that information to make a payment arrangement, and I said, well I wo n't give you that information because I do n't feel as though it 's needed. She said, " okay that 's fine, I 'll give this account over to my attorneys office today, goodbye. '' I feel as though she was threatening and rude. Today I got served a summons from their attorney. In which the attorney office said that they needed the information of my employer to set up a payment arrangement, in case I did n't make the payment and a lot farther out if they needed that information to garnish my wages. Which would have taken months. This information was not explained by the Bonneville representative, only by their attorney office that I know owe almost {$500.00} to.
