Complaint narrative:
I have contacted TransUnion several time about reporting inaccurate information on my public records. They keep stating they have verified this information but have yet to produce any documents from the court that they say provided this information to them. I have two inaccurate bankruptcy reporting Docket # XXXX ) and Docket # XXXX. TransUnion has continued to harm my credit worthiness but leaving inaccurate information reporting on my credit. They have failed to give me any documentation from the court, and they cant because the US Bankruptcy Court XXXX XXXXt does not provide information to credit bureaus. I have know accounts reporting in my credit file credit so why would they allow this to harm. I am in the process of filing a civil suit due to TransUnion negligence. I have also attached a copy of the updated report they sent me.

I have attached some documents to assist in the blocking of the erroneous information which is being posted on my report.

The creditors failure to reflect properly on a statement a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. As I know the creditor didnt notify me 21 days before with a statement so there should be no late payments on this account.

Issue: Fees or interest — Charged too much interest
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to complain about a credit offer that became a problem and resulted in a substantial additional charge on my Home Depot Credit Card. The credit card number was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have cancelled the card.

The credit offered zero interest on a larger purchase from Home Depot. The interest accrued but was not to be paid, as long as the account remained in good standing for the zero-interest rate offer period. To ensure that I could avail myself of this zero interest credit offer on the purchase, I set the card up to automatically pay a specified amount monthly. This approach worked well until the zero-interest credit period ended. 

However, I lost my card during this period and had to order a replacement. The replacement request was a problem because the information source I used to ensure that I was fulfilling my obligations on the card was not updated by Home Depot. This is because the site that I went for checking on the credit card balance never updated for the new card, and as a consequence, never showed the status of this credit offer. 

Consequently, I continued to pay the monthly specified amount automatically. However, once the credit offer term ended, Home Depot applied the full accrued interest balance to my credit card balance, and I was never made award of this adjustment because my electronic access to the credit status card was not updated. 

I realized a few months into this change that my account balance had been adjusted upward for the interest. If I had been informed by the electronic XXXX XXXX digital account site, I would have paid off the credit at that time. 

I believe the automatic payment option is a problem given that XXXX XXXX did not update my electronic access the status of my account. While the person I spoke to indicated that I had been sent notification via XXXX notices, I did not receive them. This may have been because of a couple of addresses changes that had occurred in the interim. However, I did have XXXX forward my mail, so I do not understand why I never received them. 

In any event, I believe that the approach being used by Home Depot is unfair to consumers as it offers automatic payments but does not update electronic notification to reflect balances on the replaced credit card like occurs with my other credit cards. It appears to take advantage of the false sense of security offered by automatic payments, to lull the customer into believing that they are sufficiently informed of the status of the account. 

I would like Home Depot to rectify this problem by returning the interest that I had to pay to pay off this account. Please confirm receipt of this letter.

Company: American First Finance, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I applied online through XXXX XXXX to finance furniture. They udentify multiple programs for financing. The rate noted was an APR of 147 % with 101 days interest free. As I started making my payment still within that 101 days I noticed a small portion of my payment us going to principle. When I contacted them they advised they don't have interest they have a finance fee if XXXX  per day. When I applied, there was nothing noted on XXXX XXXX  website that stated that. Additionally, they do not se d me any billing statements at all. They told me to create an online account and I can get my bill. I thought creditors were required to provide a statement to their creditors that reflects balance owed and the obligatory payment amount. This is predatory lending at ut best as well as bait and switch. They also advised that they can't draft more money than listed on the contract which helps pay the balance and interest down faster. I think this company needs to be Investigated. I understand tgat there us a difference between finance fees and interest but they misled me to believe that for that first 101 days no additional fees/interest would be assessed until the 102 day if the account was not paid off by that time. I have paid XXXX. Towards a balance of XXXX and XXXX of that has gone to finance charges I did not think existed until after the 101st day. This is predatory lending at its best.
