Only to find out that when they sent me those documents, she answered questions for me, or wrote " no member response " .. how was I supposed to respond when I wasn't even asked? XXXX said I was protected by their XXXX liability, especially since XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  I will be contacting them again next. Chime, please make this right.

I don98 % of my shopping online since I can't leave my home. This isn't right at all. You guys need to actually investigate considering the first time it hadn't even been 24 hours before I was denied.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX 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 to be removed/updated.

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.

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!

Company: Bridgecrest Acceptance Corporation

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/XXXX I defaulted on my car loan with Bridgecrest. My payment for XXXX XXXX XXXX is {$630.00}. In XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Bridgecrest and was given an arrangement to place my account back on track. I agreed to pay {$1800.00} to bring it current and resume my monthly payments of {$630.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I made both XXXX and XXXX payments. In XX/XX/XXXX, I attempted to make my payment over the phone but the office was closed. Considering the delicate nature of the account and the prior issues, i decided not to process my payment using the automated system. i called the next day to process my payment with a live agent. The agent stated my original arrangement had defaulted because i was one day late on the payment. The agent stated I would have to pay {$1200.00} that day and my car was placed into repossession status. I asked for the delinquent balance and was told it was {$3500.00}. It was explained that balance was retroactive from the XX/XX/XXXX balance. Additionally, Bridgecrest has placed my account in a charge off status although i am actively paying on it. This derogatory status has caused unfavorable decisions from otherwise promising credit opportunities.
