Complaint narrative:
I show a bankruptcy on my credit report. I contacted the court and they said they didn't furnish any information to the bureaus. It is clear they do not report to you or any credit bureau for that matter ; therefore the item with the court was either an error or a lie. Either way, the reporting requirements do not comply with FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681I ) and the information must be deleted immediately.

Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Trouble using your card — Can't use card to make purchases
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I have two credit cards with annual fees totaling {$490.00}. Despite getting approved for both accounts, paying the membership fee and keeping the accounts in good standing, Capital One regularly restricts my access to my own accounts " for security reasons '' even though there haven't been any security concerns on either cards since account opening. This wouldn't even be an issue if the verification process didn't take up to 10 business days and didn't include the uploading of my ID documents, bank statements and even my social security card on a regular basis. This verification process has been completed 10-15 times in just a little over a year since I'm a Capital One customer, resulting in me not able to use my cards and earn points for any larger transactions ( which are well within my credit limits ), which is a privilege that I pay almost {$500.00} per year for. I fully understand the security on these accounts is crucial, but when the account is flagged this frequently, basically every time there is a purchase larger than XXXX dollars, with the same transaction getting blocked twice in some instances after the verification was already completed for the specific case. I even tried to call in before making larger purchases, but was told that there is no way to pre verify a purchase. Unfortunately, as both of my accounts are currently restricted, I had enough of this. If this matter is not resolved in a permanent manner, I will seek to take the necessary legal steps to ensure that I receive the service that I pay for with the assistance of my attorney and also explore options to close or downgrade my current accounts to take my business to other institutions where my accounts can be used as intended. I attached the records of instances where I received email requests that I have, this doesn't even include all of the times this had to be completed.
