Complaint narrative:
This is so annoying & frustrating. Ive sent EXPERIAN multiple letters that Im the one whos disputing the items that are UNKNOWN to me. In XXXX responses that make the claim that have not initiated any disputes on my behalf due to the fraudulent or high risk nature, and the documents I provided have either been confirmed as fraudulent or deemed as high risk due to the potential for fraud. This is a complete joke. How in the world did they verify these claims? First of all, I know that under FCRA Section 619 Obtaining information under false pretenses that any person who knowingly and willfully obtains information on a consumer from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses shall be fined under title 18 United States Code, imprisoned for not more than 2 years, or both. Most importantly, I never sent my documentation to anyone else as it deemed as high risk due to the potential for fraud. Also, according to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 3 ) Determination That Dispute Is Frivolous or Irrelevant ( A ) a consumer reporting agency may terminate a reinvestigation of information disputed by a consumer under that paragraph if the agency reasonably determines that the dispute by the consumer is frivolous or irrelevant, including by reason of a failure by a consumer to provide sufficient information to investigate the disputed information. 

( B ) Notice of determination. Upon making any determination in accordance with subparagraph ( A ) that a dispute is frivolous or irrelevant, a consumer reporting agency shall notify the consumer of such determination not later than 5 business days after making such determination, by mail or, if authorized by the consumer for that purpose, by any other means available to the agency.

Again, under FCRA 617 Civil liability for negligent noncompliance [ 15 U.S.C. 1681o ] Any person who is negligent in failing to comply with any requirement imposed under this title with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure; and ( 2 ) in the case of any successful action to enforce any liability under this section, the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court.

Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account — Transaction was not authorized
Company: Chime Financial Inc
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX I visited a website that was a scam. I tried to make a purchase with my Chime card but it kept being declined. I used another card and didnt think anything of it. I noticed 10 transactions on my account that I did not authorize. Not only did this company drain my Chime card they drained my other card as well. As soon as I noticed these charges I called Chime and disputed. Chime stated that I would be given a credit for the charges within 10 days while the claim was being investigated. Today I received an email from Chime that the charges were valid and my claim was denied. The charges were from XXXX XXXX and XXXX. XXXX. XXXX is a website where everything is free and Words is for translating things in different languages. I have nothing to do with either company. What evidence did the merchant provide? Are there any tracking numbers? How did I spend money on a website where everything is free? How can you deny my claim without properly investigating? A police report was filed for this fraud hopefully someone will help. I pray that I can get my money back this is the holiday season we should be surrounded by love not thieves.

Issue: Closing your account — Can't close your account
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
For more than a year I have attempted to close my accounts with PayPal/Synchrony Bank not only because of permitting scammers to charge OVER {$1000.00} ( An issue which was resolved by transferring the total amount of one card to a reputable bank and completely paying off the balance on a " prepaid '' account ). The company also gave my direct pay bank account information to XXXX XXXX for which they withdrew a direct payment of {$6.00} membership fees. Because of this violation of this company 's own privacy policy, I had my bank close the contacted account and create a new one for which I had to have printed and purchased new checks at my own expense. At that time I requested all accounts be closed which they have refused to do. I am attaching a copy their response. 
It is important to note all accounts have been paid in full for some months yet per the attached they refuse to close all and I have already found someone used my email address, changed the password and attempted a purchase. 
This will continue as long as this remains open.

Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
The XXXX XXXX XXXX account has been closed since XXXX. All of the reporting on my TransUnion report is incorrect. After receiving an email about a change in my report, I called TransUnion on XX/XX/XXXX to discuss the issue. The account is showing opened and a missed payment which resulted in a huge decrease in my credit score. The representative from TransUnion stated there was nothing he could do because they simple report what is being reported to them. I am reporting the information is incorrect and have my Trans Union report from XX/XX/XXXX showing TransUnion has the account marked as closed. He stated again they can only report what the creditor sends to them and if it is reported the account is open and missed a payment that is what they have to report. I have to contact XXXX to submit a correction to TransUnion. Even after pointing out the account remarks states that the account was charged off in XXXX, the representative remained firm that the account is currently open and the information is correct. 

My TransUnion account says I have paid around {$4000.00} towards my balance. If the original balance is {$14000.00}, I have 23 months of payment and the monthly. Payment is {$390.00} how do I only have {$4000.00} paid towards the balance. TransUnion is also reporting a monthly payment of {$0.00}. If that is correct then how am I late on a payment that is {$0.00}? 
The representative was not at all helpful and TransUnion is the lowest of my credit reports because I have to monitor it through XXXX unless I want to pay to see my account. Why would a person pay for a service where the demonstrated customer service is so terrible. I am attaching a copy of the XXXX XXXX Services portion of my TransUnion report from XX/XX/XXXX In addition, this account remains in dispute with XXXX XXXX as the information being reported to all CRAs is incorrect. The collection agency ceased all collection efforts and sent the account back to XXXX due to inaccurate infornation. However, calling XXXX to dispute it just results in please call back in XXXX days.
