Company: Spring Oaks Capital, LLC
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
Dear SPRINGOAKCAP, I am writing to formally address a serious violation regarding the unauthorized reporting of information to my credit report, as outlined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) under Sections 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), 1681c ( a ) ( 2 ), and 1681s-2 ( a ), as well as the relevant laws governing identity theft and credit reporting in XXXX XXXX XXXX MO. 

It has come to my attention that SPRINGOAKCAP has engaged in unauthorized reporting to my credit report without my explicit consent. Under federal law, specifically the FCRA, the consent of the consumer is a mandatory requirement for such reporting activities as stated in Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ). 

In addition to federal law, Missouri state law, particularly under the Missouri Revised Statutes, emphasizes the necessity of consumer consent for credit reporting. The Missouri Fair Credit Reporting Act outlines similar protections, ensuring that consumers are not subjected to unauthorized reporting. Furthermore, Missouris identity theft laws highlight the seriousness of unauthorized access and misuse of personal information. 

I assert with absolute certainty that I have not provided consent for SPRINGOAKCAP to report any information to my credit report. This lack of explicit permission constitutes a clear violation of my rights, potentially damaging my creditworthiness and showing a disregard for both federal and state laws. 

I demand that SPRINGOAKCAP immediately cease any further reporting of information to my credit report without obtaining my explicit consent, as required by Section 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) of the FCRA and Missouri state laws. Failure to comply within the stipulated XXXX timeframe will be considered willful noncompliance, subject to penalties under applicable laws, including those related to identity theft. 

I want to emphasize that obtaining consent is not optional ; it is a legal obligation under these specific sections of the FCRA and Missouri state law. This is not a negotiation ; it is a demand for compliance with both federal and state regulations, which are designed to protect consumers like myself from unauthorized and damaging credit reporting. 

I expect your immediate attention to this matter and anticipate that SPRINGOAKCAP will promptly rectify these violations, respecting my rights under federal and state laws. 

Done in good faith.

I made the transfer from Binance to my other wallet, and was not informed of any fees to do so. To my shock and horror, Binance took a 57 % cut of the transfer made. As this fee was not mentioned, and is horrifically expensive, I do not believe that this could possibly be legal.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) 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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent. 

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them "

Company: Chime Financial Inc
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXXXXXX Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Chime Financial, Inc. regarding the unauthorized transactions made on my Chime credit/debit card and the subsequent handling of my dispute by Chime. 

On the early morning of XX/XX/year>, my phone and wallet, which included my ID and Chime credit/debit card, were stolen from my car. Following this theft, XXXX unauthorized charges totaling {$1100.00} were made using my card. I promptly filed a dispute with Chime and a police report with the XXXX Police Department. 

Chime representatives assured me on several occasions that my funds would be credited back to me. Despite these assurances, I never received a refund, and Chime closed the case. I reopened the case multiple times, and each time, Chime representatives reiterated that I would receive a refund. However, they continued to deny my XXXX disputes without providing a detailed explanation for the denials. 

Ironically, on XX/XX/year>, my car was broken into again in front of my house. Fortunately, nothing was stolen during this second incident. I filed another police report with the XXXX Police Department and submitted the document to Chime to demonstrate the pattern of vehicle break-ins in my neighborhood and my transparency regarding this matter. Once again, a Chime representative from their investigation department assured me that I would receive a credit refund of {$1100.00}. As expected, they closed the case again and denied all my disputes, even after receiving XXXX police reports and multiple case reopenings. 

At this point, I am seeking the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 's assistance in resolving this matter with Chime. Their handling of my case has been inconsistent and unfair. They have repeatedly assured me of a refund, only to close my case without explanation. I have all the necessary documents pertaining to this matter and am willing to provide them upon request. 

Thank you for your time and assistance in this matter. I look forward to your prompt response. 

Sincerely,
