I disputed a bankruptcy that is being reported on my Experian report dated XX/XX/XXXX. I sent the bankruptcy court a letter on XX/XX/XXXX to verify and confirm that this was accurately reported by the bankruptcy court to the credit bureau. Their response was in bold red letters that " the bankruptcy courts do not provide information to the credit reporting agencies ''. thus making this an innacurate reporting of information since it shows the source is the US bankruptcy Court and contains all of their information. I then sent the Credit bureau the copy of the letter on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX the court clerk sent me along with a letter asking them to please remove the in-correct items from my credit report. They reopened an investigation and completed it today XX/XX/XXXX and still have not removed this inaccurate information off of my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
My cash app account balance was XXXX dollars. Cash App approved a charge on my cash app account even though there was a lock on my debit card and the debit card number charged was old/expired and reported lost or stolen over 3months ago. The cash app balance is now negative {$180.00}. I contacted Cash App to dispute the charge. I asked Cash App how a charge could be paid when my card is locked for debit purchases and there was not enough money in my Cash App balance to pay a charge for {$180.00}. My cash app balance at the time was XXXX dollars. I was not given a response why this happened. They told me that I need to pay the negative balance if I want to continue to use Cash App. I would like the negative balance reversed immediately and my account balance bought to a positive balance. 

Thank You

Complaint narrative:
A late fee was charged on XX/XX/XXXX which i dont't have a problem with. What i do have a problem with is the fact that the policy of " one late fee waiver for the life of the loan '' has never been disclosed to myself in the 3.5 years that I have had this loan. When trying to talk with customer service, the reps are rude and the supervisors aren't much better in terms of being rude condescending and putting the blame back on the consumer. 

Also, I do believe contrary to the sarcastic rude supervisor i spoke with in the XXXX o'clock eastern hour on XX/XX/XXXX that banks are actually required to disclose all policies and procedures. I say this as the supervisor had the audacity to state " Citizens isn't required to disclose any of their policies to acct holders '' That phrase to me seems like a class action lawsuit just waiting to happen ( not stating anything other than what is stated, so don't read into it )
