Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Unauthorized Credit Reporting and Demand for Resolution Reference to Federal and Missouri Laws Dear COMENITYCAP/XXXX, I am writing to address a significant violation regarding the unauthorized reporting of information to my credit report, as confirmed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under Sections 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), 1681c ( a ) ( 2 ), and 1681s-2 ( a ), alongside Missouri identity theft fraud laws, specifically Missouri Revised Statutes Chapter 570, Section 570.223. 

It has unequivocally come to my attention that COMENITYCAP/XXXX  has engaged in unauthorized reporting to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent. Federal law, as outlined in the FCRA, explicitly mandates that consumer consent is a non-negotiable requirement for such reporting activities under Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ). 

In addition to federal law, Missouri state law, specifically Section 570.223 of the Missouri Revised Statutes, underscores the importance of protecting consumers from identity theft and unauthorized access to personal information. 

I assert with unwavering certainty that I have not provided consent for COMENITYCAP/XXXX  to report any information to my credit report. This undeniable lack of explicit permission constitutes a blatant violation of my rights, resulting in potential damage to my creditworthiness and showing a clear disregard for federal and state laws. 

I demand, with the utmost certainty, that COMENITYCAP/XXXX  immediately ceases any further reporting of information to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent, as mandated by Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) of the FCRA and Missouri identity theft fraud laws. Failure to comply within the stipulated 30-day timeframe will be viewed as willful noncompliance, subject to penalties under applicable laws, including identity theft fraud laws. 

I emphasize that obtaining consent is not a discretionary choice but a legal obligation under these specific sections of the FCRA and Missouri identity theft fraud laws. This is not a negotiation ; it is a demand for compliance with both federal and state regulations, protecting consumers like myself from unauthorized and damaging credit reporting. 

I anticipate your immediate attention to this matter and expect that COMENITYCAP/XXXX  will promptly rectify these egregious violations, respecting my rights under federal and state laws. 

Done in good faith, XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I received a notification from my XXXX XXXX app that one of my accounts had recently been closed. Upon opening the app, I discovered that my Victoria 's Secret Comenity Bank credit card with perfect credit history of over 10 years had been closed without them sending me any kind of notice via mail or email that this was about to happen. I tried calling multiples times and their system automatically tells me that my account was closed and can not be reopened, and then the call automatically disconnects. It will not allow me to speak to an actual person regarding the issue. I have worked extremely hard to build and maintain my great credit rating over the years, and I am appalled that this now reflects negatively on my credit report.
