Company: Klarna AB
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>, I purchased a program from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$6500.00} using Klarnas 24-month payment plan. Shortly after the purchase, I realized the merchant had failed to disclose their strict no refunds policy or terms and conditions prior to the transaction. Facing unexpected financial hardship, including a burst pipe in my home, I contacted the merchant within 12 hours to request a cancellation and refund. The merchant refused to cancel the transaction, citing terms that were only provided after my purchase. 

I filed a dispute with Klarna, explaining that my issue was not about the product being delivered, but about the merchants lack of upfront transparency regarding their refund policy and terms. However, Klarna misrepresented my dispute as order not received and denied my claim based on evidence that the product was delivered to my emailsomething I never disputed. 

Despite multiple attempts to clarify the actual issue, Klarna continued to ignore the evidence I submitted, and their decision failed to address the merchants unfair practices. This mishandling of my dispute has caused significant financial strain, as I am now responsible for the full amount of the payment plan, along with unexpected additional costs for van repairs and home maintenance.

I am requesting that Klarna reopen my dispute, review the evidence under the correct context ( lack of disclosure and refund refusal ), and grant a refund of {$6500.00}. I also request that Klarna improve its dispute resolution process to ensure disputes are properly categorized and reviewed fairly.

Company: Synovus Bank
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
First Progress has not complied with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The company has not supplied any account records that are necessary to support their claim of a debt. First Progress has not provided documentation to support a claim that First progress issued a credit card to me and was used for a purchase or other transaction, at any terminal, anywhere in the world. The company has not provided evidence of payments received or unpaid transactions. They have also failed to demonstrate that a security deposit was applied to the account. They have provided no evidence of any amount owed that accrued interest that depleted the {$200.00} deposit that secured the credit in excess of {$87.00}. 

They have provided no evidence because evidence does not exist. The company reported this account to the credit agencies as being delinquent, charged off, and with 48 payments over 90 days late. I have been denied for housing and I am now homeless. I have disputed this account and requested the relevant information several times. I have submitted every document I have ever received in regards to this account, yet the company has never provided any documentation, they have only made unsupported and unverified statements. First Progress has failed to provide the requested information, or properly investigate or provide proof of the claim. 

The actions of this company and the credit reporting agencies are unacceptable. This is not cash. A credit card debt would create ample evidence of its use.The credit card company ( XXXX, XXXX ), the issuer, the bank, ect would all have information to verify that this debt is real. Every transaction is documented with a date, time, location, merchant, terminal number, ect. First progress did not have to provide any proof before this debt became attached to my name as a public record. First progress provided no proof, the credit reporting agencies required no proof and the information Consumer financial protection Bureau reviewed the case and closed it with no proof and no compliance with the following federal statute : 12 USC 5533 a covered person shall make available to a consumer, upon request, information in the control or possession of the covered person concerning the consumer financial product or service that the consumer obtained from such covered person, including information relating to any transaction, series of transactions, or to the account including costs, charges and usage data. The information shall be made available in an electronic form usable by consumers.

Complaint narrative:
To whom it may concern, I am writing to dispute the following information in my file. I recently received a copy of my credit report and I notice there is an unauthorized credit inquiry made by the company listed at the end of this document. To my knowledge, I have not signed any documents authorizing the company in question to view my credit report. The listed inquiry was without authorization, and for no legitimate business purposes. As such, it is a very serious error in reporting. I never authorized such action, and this constitutes a violation of my rights under the fair credit reporting act S604 as well as a violation of my rights to privacy. I am requesting your credit bureau to initiate an investigation and to determine responsible parties in the unauthorized credit inquiry. As part of your investigation, please send the names, business addresses and phone numbers of those who made unauthorized credit inquiries so I may contact them directly. In addition, I request a copy of any documents authorizing credit inquiry and signed on my behalf so that I may verify its validity. If you find that I was not the one who authorized this inquiry, I ask that it be removed immediately from my credit file. Please be so kind to forward to me documents that you have had the unauthorized inquiry removed. If you find that I am in error, please send proof of this. According to the provisions of S612 ( 15 us S 1681j ), there should be no charge for this report. 
Thank you.

Furthermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress for these violations.
