Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Problem with personal statement of dispute
Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
When signing up for electronic statements on my XXXX XXXX card with Barclays I inadvertently made an error on my email address ( inputting XXXX XXXX XXXX instead of " XXXX XXXX' ). A charge of {$5.00} was then made to XXXX XXXX on the card which I forgotten was used as a default payment. As I did not receive email or written notification of the charge and subsequent delinquencies I was unaware of the balance. It was not brought to my attention until a credit reporting agency sent a notification of a decrease in my once excellent credit score, showing that Barclays reported a 30 day and 60 day delinquency. I immediately paid the {$5.00} and although Barclays waived the late fee and interest they refuse to remove the late payments from my credit report. I understand that Barclays is required to report late payments however, I am truly not a credit risk and under these circumstances ( the nominal {$5.00} amount and the typographical error ) I am hoping that they will make one time courtesy adjustment. I also hope that Barclays would do as some other banking institutions do and verify emails when they are input into their system and also send out written notifications of delinquencies, so as to avoid issues like this in the future.

There are a total of two debts that were placed on my credit report XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX that i have no recall on. I have never taken these loans and i requested information on the debts. the first time I had ever seen or knew anything about these debts was when they appeared on my credit report dropping my score over 100 points. The second company is National credit adj XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, KS XXXX totaling XXXX. The debts were placed on my credit without any notice or any validation! We are a veteran family, we have saved and sacrificed for 4 years and we are finally in the loan process of buying a home and this just pops up out of nowhere. Im sure you can imagine our pain. We haven't touched our credit. We sacrificed taking any loans out or running anything through our name in order to purchase a home for our family of XXXX. As soon as we ran our credit, the next couple days these two collection accounts just appear. I would like a thorough investigation on this as it detrimental to us and is harming our family.

Complaint narrative:
I hereby dispute the current payment status and remark comment associated with my credit report for XXXX XXXX  for a Credit Limit of {$9000.00}. The remark comment indicates " Payment after charge off/collection, '' and I believe that this information is inaccurate and does not reflect the true status of this account. 


The extended duration of the inaccuracies in my Payment History for Current Payment Status and Remark comment serves as evidence that the credit reporting agency and the furnisher knowingly and recklessly violated the FCRA. 


I would like to clarify the following points : Payment History : Contrary to the remark comment, I want to emphasize that I have not made any payments on this account after it was Charged off or sent to Collections. Therefore, it is inaccurate to suggest that there have been any payments made in this regard to support a Current Payment Status as Charged off or sent to Collections. 


Current Status : While this account may have had a Charge-off or Collection status in the past, it is essential to note that it has been resolved, and there is no outstanding balance or active Collection effort related to this account. This would make the Payment History for Current Payment Status and Remarks being reported as Charged off or sent to Collections inaccurate and false. 


Considering this information, I demand that my credit report be updated to report only accurate account information in regard to my Payment History for Current Payment Status and Remark comment. I respectfully request that you immediately investigate and rectify the Current Payment Status and Remark comment associated with this account. It is crucial that my credit report accurately reflects the status of my financial obligations, and the current Remark comment is not only misleading but is not being accurately reported as required by law and is detrimental to my creditworthiness. 


In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically SectioXXXX 1681s-2, I exercise my right to dispute any inaccurate information on my credit report. Please conduct a thorough investigation into this matter and provide a written response within 30 days, as required by law, informing me of the results of your investigation and any actions taken. 


Thank you for your prompt attention to this dispute. Failure to properly dispute this information pertaining to the Remark comment will result in a request to the IRS for a review of the missing 1099-C in support of Charge-off tax requirements. I anticipate the correction of the inaccurate current payment status remark comment on my credit report.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Complaint narrative:
I requested a credit line increase. It was denied due to a pending legal action against me. There IS NO pending legal action against me by them or any other company/person. My credit monitoring software shows nothing. I even checked my states judicial website for a small claims issue that maybe Im unaware of and there is nothing. The information is false and when I called to request where they obtained that from so I could file a dispute two women said they did not have the information and there is no way to find out where the info came from. But one was able to check and she showed they have no knowledge of any pending legal case against me. So this is a false accusation and I want it removed promptly from my records.
