Complaint narrative:
I disputed transactions on my account and was given a provisional credit after 9 business days. However Credit Karma restricted my account so I am not able to use these funds that were made available to me so that I may have full use of these funds while they investigated my dispute. When I call I am told that that department is not available to speak to and that there is nothing that they can do for me.

I asked for a contract proving that these accounts held me contractually liable to pay them. They failed to send any information requested. they only sent a letter stating the amount owed. This in in violation of my consumer rights and the FDCPA/ Federal Rules of Civil procedure. I have contacted this company on numerous occasions requesting that they delete these false accounts. I know that the FCRA requires them to have proof the account is mines in order to report it to the bureau. CHOICE RECOVERY INC is reporting this false information.

Issue: Getting a credit card — Problem getting a working replacement card
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE

Complaint narrative:
I have had an XXXX XXXX XXXX issued by Barcklays Bank of Delaware for some years. Since the card was approaching its expiration date of XX/XX/2022, I contacted the company in XXXX and asked them to send a replacement card to my address in XXXX. They said they had sent one earlier but it never arrived. I asked them to send it express, since the expiration date was near, and they agreed on XX/XX/XXXX to do so, charged me {$15.00} for it, and then said they could not send it express after all and sent it by regular mail on XX/XX/XXXX. I waited weeks, called several times, but it never arrived. On XX/XX/XXXX they agreed to send another card, did nothing until XX/XX/XXXX, and then sent it express by XXXX -- exactly what they had claimed they could not do -- but did it WITHOUT GETTING A TRACKING NUMBER even though I had EXPXRESSLY told them to get one so I could know where it was. It has not arrived XXXX weeks later, and with no tracking number I have no way of knowing if it was held by customs, was lost, or anything else. I have had no usable card this entire time, since they cancelled the existing account when they sent the first card in XXXX ; I can not pay my bills, my monthly payments are being denied and services cut off XXXX after another, my credit rating is suffering because I am delinquent on payments, and despite REPEATED calls to Barclays all they do is tell me to wait and offer to start the whole process over again from the beginning by sending yet ANOTHER card. I can not afford to start over with this long process another time and watch my credit collapse while I wait for the card to arrive. I know how bad they are -- last time I needed a new card they put the XXXX XXXX XXXX on the address instead of XXXX  and it went to XXXX instead of XXXX. They did contact my family in the United States XXXX weeks ago, then sent me an email with a phone number to call. I have called it over and over and over and over and never get anything but an answering machine saying to leave my number and they will call back within 48 hours. I have been leaving the number for XXXX weeks and have not yet received a call back. I told their agents in live conversation at a different number -- and I AM SERIOUS -- to send a courrier to XXXX with the card in his or her pocket ; if they had done so when I asked, this matter would have been settled by now. But they have done nothing, and tell me that if they sent yet another card, it would again be with NO TRACKING NUMBER, leading to the same problem. I need to pay my bills and I need compensation for the damage they have done. Please help me with this.

Complaint narrative:
This complaint is regarding a collection account i have on my credit report from collection agency XXXX XXXX, XXXX of {$750.00}. I sent my first letter to Equifax on XX/XX/XXXX asking to see verifiable proof ( hard evidence going all the way back to the original creditor, not verification from third-party database ) regarding XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX account reported on my credit report. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed if Equifax is unable to provide a copy of verifiable proof. Their response was that the account is verified, without any hard evidence going all the way back to the ORIGINAL creditor. The verification was from a third-party database. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent my second written request to Equifax asking for a description of the procedures used to determine the accuracy of this account. they did not provide me with any hard copy documentation showing that they properly verified this account and under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) ( i ) of the FCRA they are required to " promptly delete all information which can not be verified. '' They did not delete the account and receive same response- verified without any documentation as asked. 
On XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX I sent my third written request to Equifax because the account still remained on my credit after the first 2 letters sent. I asked them to delete this account because they did not provide copy of any documentation ( hard evidence that goes all the way back to the original creditor, not verification from a third-party database ). Also, Equifax did not provide the method of verification as required under section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ).

Again section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA states that any information which can not be verified with proper documentation to be promptly deleted. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent my 4th written letter to Equifax because the account is still on my credit report unverified. Again i did not receive copy of any original documentation for this account and no method of verification was provided. 
The account is still on my credit report. 
All my letters have been sent certified mail with return receipt and signature on them. Also all letters were signed by a notary agent before sending them. 


This has impacted my life in such a negative way, not being able to qualify for credit or buying a home.
