Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AR

Complaint narrative:
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern and frustration regarding the continuous reporting of a late open account on my credit file, as maintained by Equifax and XXXX Credit Bureaus. Despite multiple attempts to correct this inaccurate information, it continues to adversely affect my credit profile and financial standing. 

The late open account in question is associated with Credit Bureaus, and it has been inaccurately reported as late, despite my diligent efforts to ensure timely payments and compliance with all contractual obligations. This erroneous reporting has resulted in a significant negative impact on my credit score and financial opportunities. 

I have taken the following steps in an attempt to rectify this situation : I have contacted Credit Bureaus, on multiple occasions to dispute the late open account entry and request its removal from my credit report. However, my requests have not yielded the desired results. 

I have provided documentation and evidence to demonstrate that this late open account reporting is inaccurate, including [ mention any supporting documents you have, such as payment records, correspondence with the creditor, or any other relevant proof. 

I have initiated disputes through your bureau, attaching all the necessary documentation to support the legitimacy of my claims. Regrettably, these disputes have not led to the correction of the inaccurate reporting. 

The continuous presence of this inaccurate information on my credit file has not only hampered my ability to access credit but has also caused considerable emotional distress and frustration. It is essential that this matter is resolved promptly to ensure the accuracy and integrity of my credit report. 

I kindly request the following actions to address this issue : Conduct a thorough investigation into the late open account reported by Credit Bureaus and verify the accuracy of its late status. 

Coordinate with Equifax and XXXX Credit Bureaus to rectify this error by promptly updating my credit file to reflect the accurate and timely opening date of the account. 

Provide me with written confirmation of the correction within the exact timeframe from the date of this letter. 

Implement measures to prevent the recurrence of such errors in the future and enhance the accuracy of credit reporting. 

I understand that accurate credit reporting is essential for individuals ' financial well-being, and I expect your bureau to uphold the highest standards of integrity and accuracy in this regard. I am asking for your assistance to correct this late open account : XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Opened XXXX. XXXX XXXX Balance : {$10000.00}.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I filed a complaint via CFPB against American Express of wrongdoing.

American Express sent me correspondence stating a credit was issued but it never was. I tried the rectify the issue multiple times with their customer service representatives to no avail. I reached out to CFPB which triggered an internal AMEX investigation. Whereby, I suspect, it was discovered that my assertions were accurate. As the credit has been correctly issued since then. Kindly refer to the correspondence sent to me by American Express.

Which brings me to today. AMEX limited 2 of my several cards with them. I suspect a repercussion of challenging their billing and credit mishaps.

I am attaching correspondence of their wrongdoing. And correspondence received ( 2 accounts in 24 hours ) limiting 2 of my cards.

Company: Chime Financial Inc
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
A fraudulent account was opened with Chime and credit card was requested by thief. I got email notification of this act. I immediately called Chime and had them close my account. They confirmed that my account was fraudulently created using my identity and they have closed my account. 
However, on XX/XX/XXXX I received another email that a credit card was issued under my name and address needs to be updated. I have set up a fraud alert and frozen unathourized access to my credit. Yet this account was opened again. So it could be that Chime did not close my account and the third if still trying to access it. Chime has very lax security measures and seemingly makes opening of accounts without any authentication. This is dangerous for the consumers especially who have been a target of identity theft. Chime needs to be held accountable.

Issue: Getting a credit card — Application denied
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Capital One declined my application for the Venture card. My application number is XXXX. 

I was denied for too many new accounts. I already have two Capital One accounts and would actually rather change one of them ( the Walmart Cap One XXXX ) for for Venture card but they wont permit that, I applied for a new card. 

The letter I received this evening from Capital One contains none of the required information regarding which bureaus they pulled despite the fact that the letter says that they are listed on the reverse side. There is nothing on the reverse side other than an Equal Credit Opportunity Act disclaimer. 

Quite frankly, I am so disgusted with how I have been treated overall by Cap One that I am inclined to just close all my accounts.
