Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX, XXXX to creditdisputes Hello, I have tried again and again with the XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX to get supposed delinquint accounts from RBFCU Removed from my credit report. About 6 years ago or so RBFCU spoke to me about ways to build my credit. I GAVE RBFCU {$10000.00} that was put on freeze and i was given a " secured loan '' of my own money that was being " paid back '' to istelf in order to build credit ( loan reference # XXXX ). A little while in, times got rough and I had RBFCU pull out of it. For some reason I have a delinquent report showing about 4-5 months worth of late payments on my credit profile .... but that does not make sense since I can't be delinquent with a fully funded account that I gave XXXX towards .... its hurting my credit and I would really appreciate it If it would be removed. 

There is another account ( XXXX ) during the same time frame that is also hurting my credit report, and as I closed the first aforementioned account, I did the same with this one... so it should have been closed and not trying to pull, ending in another bad report on my credit... 

Any help would be greatly appreciated THE ABOVE IS COPY AND PASTED FROM EMAIL I SENT TO THEM ) I have tried to dispute through the company, through XXXX XXXX and all of the credit reporting agencies as well all with no recourse. 

The bank is Randolph Brooks Federal Credit Union in XXXX XXXX Texas. I currently still bank there with business accounts ( Several ) as well as personal account. I have called several times for a few years and they say there is no way to speak to someone about my issue. Only through email which I have tried over and over again.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I ordered an item totaling {$3200.00} from The XXXXXXXX XXXX website with my credit card through XXXX. The item, never arrived to me despite it being scheduled to arrive on XX/XX/2023. After unsuccessful calls with The XXXXXXXX XXXX customer service, I opened a credit card dispute with my card issuer directly on XX/XX/2023. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, the customer service team at The XXXX advised that in order for them to give me the refund, I would have to close the dispute with my card issuer. I obliged and closed the dispute. The seller, sent me proof that the refund was issued but was not coming through to me through XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The seller then dropped the case, claiming they sent the refund, and that I was responsible for coordinating with my card issuer and XXXX to get my refund as the funds are now locked between the card issuer and XXXX, and not anymore with the seller. 

XXXX advised that it may take up to 75 days for them to decide on the case, and asked me in the meantime to re-open my dispute with my card issuer. I successfully re-opened the dispute with Chase on XX/XX/2023. However, on XX/XX/XXXX, I was notified by XXXX that the dispute was closed in favor of the seller. My card issuer, also notified me on XX/XX/2023, that the re-dispute I opened on XX/XX/XXXX, was also closed in favor of the seller. 

I am left with not resolution, and no refund to my card. I want to add that Chase, has provided me with unclear directions on how to re-open the dispute, and where the funds are on multiple occasions, which delayed my ability to attempt to find a resolution to this case. They also falsely claimed that I would get my refund, when it never arrived to me, then backtracking and claiming the refund never actually arrived to them. On XX/XX/XXXX, Chase is claiming that they sent me a letter to update me on the re-dispute via a paper letter in the mail, but I have not received that. I believe they are unsure of what they mean and are not clear with the result of this re-dispute. 

I also want to add that several XXXX representatives have done the same, claiming that cases were closed when they were not, or that funds will be issued to me, when they were not. 

The XXXX, also did not provide adequate service, as they kept claiming they issued the refund, but XXXX claims the refund was never submitted. There is a clear lack of communication between the customer service representatives from all three parties, which led to a lot of back and forth with them, and over 25 phone calls and several emails with these parties. As of today, I do not have my refund and I am confused as to where my money is. I simply would like my refund as it has been 2 months, with no resolution to this issue.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report. To this day over 30 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like I'm being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Section 611 ( a ), it is plainly stated that a failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report it has been over 30 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax, XXXX and XXXX data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I have been working on my EQUIFAX credit profile and I noticed there is an incorrect addresses on my report. I am writing to dispute the errors on my credit report. I request that these errors be corrected immediately. Enclosed, check out my drivers license supporting my dispute. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter The INCORRECT Address that should be deleted is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX. 

Also, EQUIFAX has my name incorrectly spelled and/or listed on my report : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
Please keep in mind that Congress ( 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ) ) makes it clear that I have a right to privacy. Privacy is not defined because only I can define what privacy is to me.

( 4 ) There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy.

Under the subsection 15 usc 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) the reporting agency does not have my written instructions to report anything. The code says they need permissible purpose in accordance with written instructions. The credit reporting agencies ( EQUIFAX, XXXX, and XXXX ) do not have my written permission and this should be removed accordingly. 

I am under the impression that it seems as if a company has taken advantage of obtaining my personal address for their benefit. There is a huge risk of having the incorrect address on my consumer report because this could potentially be identity theft.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
We have had this mortgage for a numerous of years and as soon as it was changed to Mr. COOPER We had a problem. We have NEVER had a late payment on our loans and we have had a number of them as we are XXXX XXXX XXXX. A few months ago somehow a payment was made from our XXXX XXXX with an incorrect number on it. Is would have been easy for them to contact us because our name was there in plain sight. Instead they sent the check back to our bank without contacting us. By the time we got the returned check it was about a month out. We started contacting Mr. Cooper and trying to figure out what happened. It took several calls just to find out why the check was returned. They didn't even tell us the problem until WE started calling them. We eventually figured out the problem and sent several payments to fix the issue. 
I tried reasoning with them to fix the credit reporting because they can plainly see we are great customers with NEVER a late payment. They didn't care! OUR CREDIT WENT FROM AN XXXX TO A XXXX BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T BE BOTHERED TO CONTACT US WHEN A CLERICAL ERROR WAS MADE ON A XXXX XXXX PAYMENT. THEY WAITED UNTIL IT WAS A MONTH LATE TO START CONTACTING US! 
I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO SPEAK WITH THEM TO FIX THE CREDIT REPORT AS THEY CAN SEE WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN GOOD CUSTOMERS BUT NO! THEY REFUSE.

IT SEEMES LIKE A SCAM TO ME.

Complaint narrative:
I have a lease to own account showing on my credit report. There's only a record of an XXXX payment, when in fact I made all my payments for XXXX and XXXX as well. The way the plan works is if you pay off the balance within 90 days, you're no longer charged for the item and own it outright. I've done this. My credit report still doesn't show that the account is now paid off and the line is closed. It also still doesn't show the accurate payment history made by me. I've tried to flag this for both the credit bureaus and for the company, but to no avail.
