Complaint narrative:
Consumer Reporting Agencies have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit while knowing there is a need to insure they exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a RESPECT for the consumers RIGHT TO PRIVACY. 
The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting, and these unfair credit reporting methods undermine my public confidence which is essential to the banking system. 
I never gave my expressed, written consent for these consumer reporting agencies to report my information, which violated 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and this leads to an alleged identity theft, which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. These accounts are not related to any transactions made by me, the consumer.

Complaint narrative:
I wanted to try this prepaid credit card and signed up for BlueBird by american express in XX/XX/year>. 

Before I received the card I read a lot of reviews around how bad these cards are. I decided I didn't want to use the card. 

When the card came I cut it up immediately and disposed of it. 

I do not have access to the online account and can only gain access with card information do not have. 

I have access to the email associated with the card and the Social Security number. I believe they can not validate my account as they are saying I entered a different birthday than my actual birthday. 

Support can't help me, there is no one else to contact. They as for card information I'll never be able to recover. There is no way for me to progress this forward. 

I have no options, the entire website has a single phone number. 

This seems very predatory. 

DO NOT EVER USE BLUEBIRD IF YOU ARE READING THIS.

Complaint narrative:
During the pandemic lockdown Midland Credit Management stated they served me a notice to appear at XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  in XXXX, Ca. They stated the court date was XX/XX/year>. I never received any documentation regarding a XX/XX/year> court date. As this was during the pandemic and I XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXXXXXX XXXX  I would have made appropriate arrangements to be at the hearing. Recently, my computer was hacked and I am a victim of Identity theft, we came across the XXXX site. The site showed documentation where Midland went into court and obtained a judgement against me. I was robbed of the opportunity to appear, and a default judgement was obtained by Midland. Midland continued to report this as an unpaid debt, not a judgement leading me to believe there was never a court hearing. Because I found out this data over 3 years later, the debt has nearly doubled to slightly {$6000.00}. The judgement including court costs was only {$3900.00} as per the Midland representative on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX deceptive practices by a collector. So they reported the debt 2 times. Once as public record, and the other as an outstanding debt in collections. This practice has dropped my credit score by XXXX points.

Issue: Struggling to pay your bill — Problem lowering your monthly payments
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: ID

Complaint narrative:
I have filed multiple complaints against this company, And they continue to not rectify the issues. I am going to continue to file a complaint and until I can get what I asked for over a year ago. I have repeatedly asked for information regarding payment plans and to be on a payment plan because I am living on XXXX forced medical income. I can not afford to pay the amount that they are asking and I am willing to work with them if I can pay {$50.00} a month on the account ending in XXXX. I set this account up on a payment plan on XX/XX/year>, Then this company denied that theyre even was a payment plan, but they were not charging me fees for past due, They were taking the money and not charging the account any late fees. Then they turned around and said there was never anything in place, which is not true because Ive provided ample information stating that it was in place when I filed my first complaint against this company then they started charging me past due fees. I am wanting to be on a payment plan of {$50.00} a month, I am offering that in good stead, But this company refuses to work with me. I could take it to court and I know that I would get what Im asking for, I could also ask for all the time and energy and fees, and everything else from a judge in small claims, And then I would tack the money on because of the time, work, And trying to get this rectified. If they really wanted to get this rectified, they would offer me a payment plan to be able to do this. They say they have multiple payment plans in place under their company name, But anytime I have asked to be on this they refuse to put me on it. Then they turn around and credit as Im not trying to work with them and be cooperative with them. This company never offers me anything even though I am trying so, If they are not willing to offer me a payment plan, These are the options that are on the table, I will ask for a forbearance for the entire amount and I will cease pain anymore because you refused to work with me. The other option is I take to court judge and I sue you for all my time and energy and present to the judge all of the documentation that I have in trying to work with you, but you failed to work with me. Those are the options on the table.

Complaint narrative:
My account with the company and i was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with this company and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 

I demand the late payment reported in MONTHS REPORTING LATE to be removed They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. 

This company never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!
