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: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I made a hotel reservation at XXXX XXXX for 3 nights at a cost of {$2700.00} on my Citi Card for the super bowl. The web site as well as my reservation confirmation confirmed that the reservation was cancelable up to 24 hours prior to arrival. I cancelled the reservation the next day for more reasonable accommodations, 13 days prior to arrival and received a cancelation confirmation. I was told at the time I would receive a credit on my statement in 7-10 days. On the XXXX day I called about the credit and was told the reservation was not cancelable even though I I had it in writing. When I filed a dispute with Citi Card, they simply said the merchant said it was not cancelable.. I have it in writing it was cancelable .This is theft, fraud and Citi bank seems to think this is OK. I need your help. The reservation confirmation attached below clearly states this was cancelable up t 24 hours prior to arrival. 
I have contacted Citi numerous times thru their disputes dept and have sent them all the documentation.

Complaint narrative:
Between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX continued to report an increasing account balance on my credit reports ( now {$13000.00} as of XX/XX/XXXX ), despite a pending court dispute ( Case No. XXXX in XXXX XXXX XXXX AL ) and a previously denied motion for default judgment due to defective service. 

I never received proper service of the original lawsuit and only learned of the default judgment after the fact, prompting me to file a motion to vacate, which is still pending before the court. Regardless, XXXX XXXX has continued to report updated balances and negative information to the credit bureaus, which I believe is inaccurate, misleading, and in violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ), which prohibits furnishers from reporting information that they know or should know is inaccurate. 

The amount XXXX is reporting does not match the original figures mentioned in court filings and has increased despite no court-approved collection. Furthermore, I have received no verifiable documentation from XXXX or its legal representatives explaining the continued updates or changes in the balance. 

I am requesting a full deletion of this account from all credit reporting agencies due to : Lack of verified or properly served debt. 
Inaccurate and conflicting balance reporting. 
Ongoing litigation that makes this tradeline legally and ethically disputable. 

Please investigate and take corrective action, including deletion or suppression of this account across all credit bureaus as allowed by law.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX U.S. CXXXX XXXX ) 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 XXXX U.S. CXXXX XXXXb ( 2 ) and XXXX U.S. CXXXX XXXXc-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under XXXX U.S. CXXXX XXXXn, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me. I've tried to get clarification from the creditors, but they have blatantly refused to give it to me. I demand that the creditors act immediately and be transparent. The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file!

Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Formal Response to Account Verification XXXX Account Ending in XXXX To Whom It May Concern, Thank you for your response regarding the above-referenced account. 

However, I must formally state that this alleged debt was never validated in accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1692g of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). I did not receive a proper debt validation notice, nor was I provided with any legal assignment or chain of title proving that Portfolio Recovery Associates , LLC ( PRA ) has the right to collect on this alleged debt. 

Furthermore, no signed agreement, contract, or application has been provided to show I entered into any financial relationship with PRA. Without proper assignment documentation or proof of ownership, this debt remains unsubstantiated. Any attempt to collect or report an unvalidated debt is a potential violation of the FDCPA and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

It is also important to note that the initial notification letter referenced was never received, nor did I ever receive any response to my previous disputes. Your claim that permission is not required to report the account is misleading. While consent may not be necessary, reporting inaccurate, unvalidated, or disputed information is illegal under FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S. Code 1681c2 ).
