Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: KY

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX my vehicle was totaled. I was very distraught after the accident and moved to Kentucky right after the accident. I did not know the insurance did not cover the entire amount. The payment of {$320.00} was due on the XXXX of each month. 

I did miss the XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX payments. The reported 30 & 60 day late payments are correct. 

On XX/XX/XXXX COAF received insurance proceeds of {$15000.00} and that left a balance of {$680.00} unpaid. 

I received a dispute response from COAF, on pg 2 COAF states the XX/XX/XXXX payment was not paid until XX/XX/XXXX, and the XX/XX/XXXX payment was not paid until XX/XX/XXXX when I paid the {$680.00}. 

What happened to the XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX payments? How were those payments made? 

Plus how can COAF report the XXXX as XX/XX/XXXX, according to XXXX XXXX guidelines, it should have been XX/XX/XXXX. And how does COAF verify account as a Charge-Off with only reporting 2 late payments? 

Look at the CRA payment history reporting, is this factually correct according to XXXX XXXX standards?

I contested the information cause I never got an bill and I havent used the card in years. They removed the late payments and corrected my credit report. I am buying a house and the lender needs a letter from them stating that the XXXX and XXXX late payments were posted in error and corrected. Also in the letter have there letter head and account number in question. They refused to do so. Ive called many times and all their employees tell me they can not provide me with that letter. All I need at this point is a letter stating that they repaired what they already did. They told me they couldnt provide me with the letter cause I dont have an account with them any more and if I opened an account with them again they will provide it for me. I dont want to be forced into getting a card with them. Also I am been out in a place that I would have to come up with {$87000.00} extra on down payment to able to buy the house since this letter is not made available to me for my new lender to be able to pull my credit and re score me.

I received no other statements or notifications of a balance on my account and assumed the account was XXXX and closed on XX/XX/XXXX. I received a text message from commenity one week ago and I logged in to my account to find a finance charge of XXXX that has blossomed to XXXX with all of the late fees over a period of 3 months. I called commenity immmediately and paid the XXXX by phone. I spoke to several people and both said my balance by phone was XXXX. I paid this amount by phone. Today I logged in again to check to make sure this account is XXXX  and commenity processed a payment of XXXX leaving account credit balance balance of XXXX XXXX I truly believe there is something fraudulent going on with this company.
