Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: Avant Holding Company, Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I noticed a pending transaction on my credit card account. I rarely use the card and hadn't made any recent purchases, so I called to dispute it right away. The transaction was dated XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$100.00} and the merchant was XXXX. I've never even heard of them. I was told that I would have to wait until the charge was posted before reporting it, so I called back on XX/XX/XXXX after it was posted. They listed off XXXX phone numbers they had in their system for me, and only one is accurate. I asked them to remove the other number. They NEVER should have allowed a new number to be entered without notifying me in some way- I've never had that number so I certainly didn't enter it. 

They said the Fraud department would open a fraud claim within 5 business days and they would be in touch with me in that timeframe. I waited the time and then called back on XX/XX/XXXX when I hadn't heard back from them. I was transferred to so many people and nobody was willing to help me with a resolution. One of the representatives told me she escalated my complaint and I should hear back from the Fraud department within 5 business days ( again ). I also decided to send an email to their customer service on XX/XX/XXXX with my complaint, and all they could do is tell me to call the customer service number. I waited the 5 days again and then called back on XX/XX/XXXX. I was transferred to every department, and nobody could provide an update on my claim or assist me with next steps. Most representatives wanted to transfer me to Card Services, but every time I talk to them they inform me that they can only issue a new card ( I had XXXX sent during my first phone call with them ) and they don't actually deal with fraud claims. But the representatives wouldn't listen when I told them to stop transferring me to Card Services. They wouldn't let me talk to somebody in charge and nobody would provide an update on my claim. Overall, I have called them XXXX times ( XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ) and emailed them XXXX times ( XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ) and have received absolutely no assistance. I do not want to pay for an unauthorized transaction ( which is my right as a consumer ) but they will not help me with this.

Complaint narrative:
I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 3-4 months.

Complaint narrative:
Approximately XXXX of XXXX  I requested that XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX the late payments showing on my credit bureau for both of my credit cards with them one XXXX  and one XXXX because had autopay. The autopay worked for a couple of payments then stopped. There was an account number change that could have been the reason for the autopay being removed but it is XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX 's responsibility to reinstate the same services I had on the accounts. 

When I noticed there was no Autopay a couple of months later, I called and requested to reinstate autopay and correct the late payments. The representative reinstated the autopay and refunded the fees but failed to correct the late occurrences on the accounts.

I requested a loan to pay off my debts today and the bank gave me a copy of my credit bureau. Both of the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX cards XXXX and XXXX are showing late payments and furthermore ; are not showing as a current payments and in good standing. These two account do not appear in my current accounts. They both show up under derogatory accounts and not showing under current accounts. These two accounts I have had with XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX for over 20 years. 

There has been previous account number changes but never closed and reopened. The late payments and the way it is reporting on my credit bureaus is negatively impacting my credit score and credit history. I have autopay on all of my credit cards to avoid this.

I just spent over an hour attempting to contact them through their customer service phone number. Only to speak with a representative named XXXX from New York to tell me I have the wrong department and put me back into the general Queue which doesn't give an option for disputing erroneous information reported on the credit bureau. This make is appear as though there is no accountability on the part of XXXX XXXX XXXX to make this right. They collect fees but have no contact available through their automated system to contact this department.
