Consumer complaint received 2025-06-16 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Trouble using your card — Can't use card to make purchases
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Wells Fargo- XXXX  visa card ending in XXXX. 

Applied for the credit card and was approved. Received the card and made a purchase on the card for {$30000.00}. Charges went through and then tried to use the card again was declined. 

Checked account and there is a block or hold on the account. Called the bank and even escalated to the executive office, but the only thing they will tell me is in order for the block to be removed it to go in to a physical branch with my federal id and 2 address proof. 

I have called several times and have confirmed who I am over the phone and I my mortgage with Wells Fargo as well and offered to verify my identity any means - they rejected that option. Then I asked what is the reason for the unusual request of making a physical appearance- they said they can not tell me and will not release any additional information regarding this matter except in order for me to unblock my card- I need to physically appear in a branch. 

How is this appropriate as I have verified my identity and verified the charges and the actual application is real and not fraud. I have not froze my account- nor have I reported any fraudulent charges Why will they not tell me the reason for this request. As this request involves me and yet they can not give me additional information. I was just kindly asking the reason and the caused for such a request. The only statement I received was you must present yourself or your account will be closed in 40 days. 

Keep in mind that payments are being made and the account is in good standing, except that they put a hold on the account.

Complaint narrative:

I never received a summons, judgment notice, or any written notification about the debt or my right to dispute it. This garnishment came as a complete shock, and I was given no opportunity to defend myself or verify the debt beforehand. 

After learning about the garnishment through my employer, I contacted the debt collection law firm ( Arnold Scott Harris , P.C . ) and requested full validation of the debt, including the original tax year, balance, where notices were sent, and proof of service. They have not yet provided this information. 

This situation is financially XXXX  and appears to violate due process. Ive filed a Motion to Vacate the judgment and garnishment in court and am requesting CFPB assistance to investigate this debt collection practice and prevent further harm.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( XXXX ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  SD Account Number- XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number- XXXX Self Financial/ LEAD BA Account Number- XXXX Office of the attorney general Account Number- XXXX Pursuant to the Fair Credit Billing Act ( XXXX U.S.C. XXXX ( b ) ), I am exercising my right to dispute this billing error. Under this statute, a consumer is not liable for a payment claimed to be in error if they provide written notice within XXXX  days of the statement date. My dispute has been timely, and yet, this derogatory mark remains on my credit report despite my lawful objections and supporting documentation already provided to the creditor. 

Furthermore, per XXXX U.S.C. XXXX ( a ) ( XXXX ) of the Truth in Lending Act, creditors are required to provide accurate billing and terms disclosures. If the original creditor failed to meet these disclosure obligations, the enforcement and reporting of the late payment would be improper and potentially unlawful. 

Additionally, in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX Cir. XXXX ), the court held that a credit reporting agency must go beyond the original source of the information if a consumer disputes an item. A mere parroting of the creditors position without independent investigation constitutes a failure of reasonable procedures under XXXX XXXX. XXXX. 

In light of these facts and applicable legal precedent, I am requesting that the inaccurate late payment entry be : Investigated independently as required by federal law Permanently removed from my credit report Updated across all consumer reporting platforms Please complete this investigation and provide me with written confirmation of the results within XXXX days, as mandated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( XXXX XXXX.

If this item is not removed in a timely and permanent manner, I reserve the right to file complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and/or take legal action to protect my credit rights under federal law.

Company: Toyota Credit De Puerto Rico Corp.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing a debt with Toyota Credit de Puerto Rico Corp, and requested full validation of this debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), as allowed by 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809. I formally requested detailed documentation to prove the validity of this debt, including a copy of the original agreement, itemized statements showing any additional fees, and proof that Toyota Credit de Puerto Rico Corp has the authority to collect this debt on behalf of the creditor. Despite my request, I have not received adequate validation documentation as required by law, and they have continued collection efforts. 

Additionally, if this debt is reported to the credit bureaus, I am concerned that it may appear as inaccurate information on my credit report, potentially violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Any attempt to report this debt without validation would not only be misleading but also an infringement of my rights under both the FDCPA and FCRA.

I am filing this complaint to request assistance from the CFPB in ensuring that Toyota Credit de Puerto Rico Corp, provides full validation documentation before any further collection efforts or reporting to credit bureaus continue.
