Company: Block, Inc.
State: MS

Complaint narrative:
I am filing a complaint against Cash App ( Block , Inc. ) due to inadequate customer service and unfair practices, which violate the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ). Specifically, Cash App failed to take timely and effective measures to prevent and address fraud on their platform, leaving my account vulnerable and unprotected.

Furthermore, their dispute resolution process was unfair and deceptive, as they did not comply with error resolution requirements under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) and Regulation E. These actions have caused significant inconvenience and financial loss, and I seek appropriate redress for these violations.

Consumer complaint received 2025-02-05 00:00:00
Product: Prepaid card — General-purpose prepaid card
Issue: Trouble using the card — Trouble using the card to spend money in a store or online
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
I've had major trouble using these cards in the past, but decided to try again using XXXX of these cards. It is an American Express XXXX XXXX XXXX, prepaid. I wanted to purchase something online that was time-sensitive, but in order for the merchant to accept AMEX cards XXXX you are forced to input the card into either XXXX or XXXX. Well, I tried XXXX. Multiple times. It gets declined every time and charges a {$0.00} charge onto the card which I hope gets refunded at some point. At the time of writing this, the total amount was {$490.00} because of these issues. 

American Express claims these cards can be used everywhere, just like a regular credit card. Well, I wasn't able to use the card because of all the declining, so I had to use my own personal credit card because it was time sensitive. 

For reference, the total amount for the transaction would have been {$170.00} total, and this card has {$500.00}. Plenty of money on the card but I wasn't even able to get that far. 

In my opinion, American Express does not want the card holder to use this card with small businesses, they make it extremely difficult and in this case- impossible. They would rather see it spent in a big box store or giant corporation. It's my money, and I'd like to use it however I want.

Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score — Problem getting your free annual credit report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep frustration with the ongoing delays and lack of proper communication regarding my request for a credit report from Clarity Services XXXX XXXX, a part of Experian. I initially requested my credit report on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and since then, I have been met with continuous stalling tactics and incomplete responses. I sent in certified mail on XX/XX/year> asking that my personal information be updated and you have failed to do this as well. 

Most recently, I received a letter from your office stating that you require identification documents that I have already submitted multiple times. In fact, I have provided all requested documents, including proof of identity, yet I still have not received my full credit report. Instead, I was sent only my credit scorehow is it that you were able to verify my identity sufficiently to provide my score, but not my complete report? This inconsistency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about the handling of my personal information. 

This has gone on far too long, and your continued failure to provide the necessary documents is not only inconvenient but also legally questionable. Under the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( FCRA ) **, I am entitled to receive my credit report in a timely manner, and your lack of response is in direct violation of those rights. 

I demand that my full credit report be provided to me immediately, along with a clear explanation of how my identity was verified to release my score but not the full report. I also demand that my personal information be updated to the following : Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX ( all other names need to be removed immediately because they are not mine and they are fraudulent ) Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, AL XXXX ( all other addresses are incorrect and need to be removed immediately. I have never lived at those addresses, and they do not belong to me ) phone number : please delete any phone numbers you have associated with my account as they are incorrect. 

employer : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( delete any other employers as they are inaccurate ) You are enabling identity theft and not upholding your responsibility to provide me my credit report or maintain an accurate credit report for me. This issue has dragged on long enough, and I expect prompt action to resolve it.
