Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
This dealership XXXX XXXX ( located in XXXX, Fl ) is completely dishonest. They will do anything to make a sale or profit. Even if they have to lie to you. Prior to making the purchase on XX/XX/2023, my husband and sat down with their finance guy XXXX and had a chat with him prior to signing anything and prior to making the purchase. I specifically told XXXX that i'm okay with making the purchase in cash but him and the sales guy XXXX continued to convince me to apply for credit with them telling me I need to build credit and so on. I specifically asked him how my credit would be affected if I decided to go ahead with credit. I told XXXX and XXXX that I will not authorize or give my signature for a credit check if it results in more than 2 hard inquiries on my credit report. XXXX then promised me and assured me that it is only going to be 2 inquiries from XXXX XXXX XXXX and it will NEVER be more than 2 inquiries and I have nothing to worry about and that I should go ahead and sign to authorize him to do the credit check. He assured me of this over and over. I then went ahead and signed. I got home and saw 7 inquiries on my credit report. He knowingly lied and mislead me for my signature. I gave him a call and he denied it at first claiming that it's only two inquiries and I then told him that I can very CLEARLY see 7 inquiries on my credit ( from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and only then did he finally admit it, claiming that he made a " mistake ''. A few days later, his manager XXXX explained to me how the credit check process works and it was pretty clear that he knew what he was doing and it wasn't a mistake. He just wanted to do whatever it took for me to get a loan with them so they could profit. After that, their sales manager XXXX claimed he was going to make this right and he was going to help me get the inquiries removed. A month later I told him that the bureaus just want a letter from the dealership detailing the mistake and asking to remove the inquiries and that would be the end of this entire situation. But for some reason, at that point he began to deny their mistake and began refusing to assist with the letter to remove the inquiries, and he was claiming that he thinks i'm recording him. Which is ridiculous. I don't understand why they're so worried about fixing this mistake. Why they're paranoid about being recorded even though I was not recording them. Something very shady is going on with that business. That is clear.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Complaint Issue : American Express Platinum credit card # XXXX In XX/XX/2022, I obtained an American Express Platinum card and paid an annual fee of {$690.00}. The terms at the time of my application clearly stated that if I had never previously held a Platinum card, I would be eligible for a sign-up welcome bonus upon meeting the basic spending requirements. The phrase " One person per card per lifetime '' was explicitly mentioned in the terms during my application. 
By the third month, I had not only met but significantly exceeded the spending requirement of {$6000.00}. I reached out to American Express customer service, and they assured me that the sign-up bonus would be credited to my account promptly. However, six months later, the bonus was still absent. Upon contacting American Express again, they informed me that I was ineligible due to having opened two different American Express cards ( including a business credit card ) in the past four years, received bonuses ( approximately {$250.00} in total rewards from a card I applied for three years ago ), and closed the account. I filed an appeal, but it was rejected. 
I believe I have been treated unjustly for the following reasons : XXXX. No notification or alert was provided during my online application process indicating that I did not qualify for the sign-up bonus. 
XXXX. The terms during my application clearly stated : " One person per card per lifetime. '' I had never applied for an American Express Platinum card before. 
XXXX. When I contacted American Express customer service in the third month, the representative confirmed my eligibility and assured me that the welcome bonus would be issued immediately. 
XXXX. Despite their claim of my ineligibility for future sign-up bonuses, American Express continues to send me promotional emails or mail for other credit card bonuses. This is misleading and borders on deceptive practices. 
XXXX. I found some people ( online, my friends, etc ) who also had other America Express credit cards even more than mine still got the welcome bonus. That's unfair, you treated people differently.
