Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: Collection Bureau of the Hudson Valley, Inc.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted XXXX XXXX of the Hudson Valley to set up a payment payment arrangement to pay off my debt of XXXX. The woman I spoke to did not offer me any type of negotiation for the payment arrangement. I offered to make a payment of half, XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and the remaning half the following week. She stated she would put in a request to post date the payments for XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX. NOT what I had asked for, but I agreed. I also asked for some type of documentation stating I was agreeing to make these payments or an update to the credit bureau and she said that they do not send out docs or update until the payment is made in full.XXXX  My family is now sick with XXXX so I had to take off a few days of work, so I was not able to make the payment for XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted CBHV XX/XX/XXXX and the man i spoke with earlier told me that I was confusing him when I informed him that I needed to cancel the payment for XX/XX/XXXX and set up a different and smaller payment arrangement. He at first said that I could do a {$XXXX} payment and gave me the dates that we could start that. The dates that we had agreed on was {$XXXX} on XX/XX/XXXX, {$XXXX} on XX/XX/XXXX and I would have agreed to {$XXXX} XXXX and I agreed and then as soon as I agreed he changed it up and said " Ok, so I'm going to put in that you'll pay XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and then again on XXXX ''. That is NOT what I said and when I confronted him about the change, he said that I initially spoke WITH him and he was insistent that I spoke WITH him on XX/XX/XXXX and why couldnt I agree with XXXX, because thats what we agreed upon when I spoke with you last friday. I took your money, I KNOW I spoke to you. XXXX not allowed to make a payment less than {$XXXX} so thats why you need to make the XXXX payment and you cant spread these payments out for longer than what it needs to. He also insisted that no communication will be sent out for the payment agreement or anything other paperwork stating I am in an agreement. He said that I would receive paperwork before the payment I set up ( i dont remember what date now ) within XXXX weeks and then was insistent on telling me today was Saturday and that I would receive the payment agreement paperowrk by the end of XX/XX/XXXX. He also stated that my credit report wouldnt be updated until the payment was made in full, not even a paid/ontime payment notice would be sent to the bureau. and the bureaus will be contacted in XXXX XXXX so now we're talking XXXX before my credit states this is paid off. XXXX are quick to add this to my credit report though.. I was honestly shocked that he would lie and change up the terms he had given me! I also heard another woman XXXX  at a customer in the background!

Issue: Problem when making payments — 
Company: Upstart Holdings, Inc.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
I was falling behind on my payments but managed to make a minimum payment to keep my account from being charged off on XXXX XXXX XXXX  This minimum payment only allowed an extra 31 days to make another payment to prevent the account from being charged off. On XXXX XXXX XXXX  Upstart sent me a " Right to Cure '' email stating that I had until XX/XX/XXXX to pay my balance before they would charge off the account. Contrary to their email, my personal loan dashboard reflected a date of XX/XX/XXXX to make a payment. Due to the discrepancy in the payment dates, I decided I would go off what was reflected on their website/my dashboard for the payment due. I thought the website would have more accurate information regarding my payment date. On XX/XX/XXXX my account was charged-off. I immediately sent an email explaining the situation and how I was given two dates and that there must be a mistake or error on the email or website. Upstart Loan Operations did not care about the facts that I presented to them. I even provided a picture of my dashboard that had my amount due and it showed XX/XX/XXXX as when it was due. Upstart still refuted this information and evidence and will not recall the loan from the charge-off and allow me to make my scheduled payment. This is unacceptable behavior when the customer has proof that there was a discrepancy in the payment dates. I should not be punished with a charged-off account when I was actively trying to rectify my account and their system was showing two separate dates that I was supposed to make a payment.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I'm not using any third party for this matter and represent myself by myself. I have filed a report with the Federal Trade Commission, which I have enclosed within this dispute package. My personal information was compromised, so as a result I got hard inquires on my report that I never authorized, I have not signed or applied to any of these creditors or companies who posted hard inquires on my report. Therefore, I have come to you, the credit reporting agencies to resolve these issues. The law says that you must block these accounts while being investigated, and I expect that you will do so. I made an attempt to file a police report, but I was informed by my county that it did not constitute as an emergency, and that they would not file the report because I didnt have any information on the person who used my information, nor did I know how my information was obtained by this person. Inquiries that are made by someone else without my authorization is not a factual record of access to my credit file, it is a factual record of fraudulent activity, and it must be addressed as such. The reason that these inquiries are being disputed is because they were not made by me, and when I report this to you, it is your responsibility to investigate my claims, and when you can not prove that these inquiries were made by me, they must be removed from my credit file. It is not my responsibility to go directly to each creditor, the obligation lies at your feet because you are reporting inaccurate information within my credit report, and this violates the FCRA. It should be noted that an inquiry that was not made by me is not a factual record, just as a fraudulently opened account is not a factual record and not referred to the creditor to be disputed directly with them. The credit reporting agencies have attempted to address an inquiry as a factual record of file access, but if it was done through fraudulent means, it is not a factual record. As a consumer I should not be required to dispute each fraudulent inquiry directly with each company. These inquiries are the result of fraudulent activity and therefore inaccurate information in which the credit reporting agencies or the creditors can not verify, meaning that these inquiries are unverifiable information and must be deleted from out of my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  these items above should be removed from my report immediately. 
Please note : I have included in this package a copy of my driver license, copy of proof of address, copy of my SSN, FTC report
