Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I submitted a previous complaint through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, under case number  XXXX . Thank you for removing the late payment fees from my account as a result of your mistake. At this time, I am requesting a credit balance refund check be sent to me at the address listed on file.     After reading Kohl 's response letter, I do not agree with the result of the 'investigation ' into the delinquent remarks placed on my credit report. The response provided by  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  brought additional questions that I would like to have answered.     Kohl 's response indicated that, during  XXXX   XXXX , I elected to have only electronic billing notifications provided when there was a balance due and to suppress paper billing statements. While this  may or may no t be true, I do not recall making this election in  XXXX   XXXX . However, because this is the response provided by Kohl 's, I would like to know how and why I continued to receive monthly paper billing statements through  XXXX   XXXX , two years after the alleged election was made to ONLY receive electronic billing notifications? Furthermore, I would also like to know the exact dates that I logged into my account online to view my account activity.     Based on these questions, to which I 'm sure will not properly be answered, the delinquent remarks should be immediately removed from my credit report as it is an inaccurate representation of the status of my account with Kohl 's. I am also requesting that the " customer disputes reporting '' remark be immediately removed from my credit report as I never requested that my account be listed that way.

Complaint narrative:
I HAVE HAD AN ACCOUNT WITH SANTANDER AND PAID IN FULL. The write-off is the only derogatory information and it is FALSE.     After some investigation I found out that the owner of the account had a very bad accident back in the fall.  XXXX  totaled out the account but there was a dispute over the value of the car, the amount of gap insurance, and a deductible. I could not get much more information because IT IS NOT MY ACCOUNT.     I have also reported this to my state 's consumer protection board. This has wiped more than  XXXX  points off my account. IT IS INACCURATE AND fraudulently reported as failure to pay car payments but it is because they did not receive an amount from  XXXX . Santander decided to falsely report it as missing payments instead of taking up a dispute with the borrower, the insurance company, and THEY WO N'T REMOVE THIS DISROGATORY INFORMATION. They never contacted me because it is not my account. I have never lived at  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  and have not lived in CT for more than 10 years.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On  XXXX   XXXX ,   XXXX  , I purchased mattresses from Macy 's using my store credit card for {$980.00}. I chose  Macy  's for my purchase to take advantage of their interest-free financing so I could pay the purchase off over time. I am currently under-employed due to health issues and have limited resources. At the time of my purchase, I did not remember that I had set up my Macy 's online account for autopay for the full statement balance, which I had done years before when I was in better financial shape.     On   XXXX   XXXX  , I received an email from  Macy  's that my statement was available. The email did not give any information about the amount that was due or the date that my auto payment would post.     On   XXXX   XXXX  , I received an email alert from my bank indicating that an ACH transaction to Mac y 's f or {$980.00} had posted. I did not see the email until   XXXX   XXXX  , at which point I immediately went onto the Macy 's credit card site ( which is handled by   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX   ) to change my payment options so this would not happen again.     YOU CAN NOT CHANGE YOUR AUTOPAY SETTINGS FROM THE WEBSITE. In order to change them,  one  is required to call a customer service phone number, which is not a 24-hour service. I was unable to reach customer service because my call was outside of their office hours.     I believe it is an abusive practice to allow autopay but (  1  ) not inform customers that you will not be able to change the settings online, and (  2 )  force online customers to call a call center that is not open 24 hours to change online settings. I also believe that all credit cards that have their own autopay mechanisms should be required to alert consumers prior to the posting date of THE AMOUNT AND DATE OF THE UPCOMING PAYMENT. Given the exhorbitant interest rates they charge, this is the least they can do.

Company: BROKER SOLUTIONS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I was shopping for mortgage lending and I contacted two lenders. One of the lenders was Broker Solutions, Inc ( or XXXX XXXX XXXX ). This company offered me a conventional, 30 year fix at 3.75 % rate. I decided to go with them and after 2 weeks of paperwork and appraisal paid for they changed the loan rate to 4.25 %, plus {$1100.00} for a 0.935 % in points. The new conditions were more disadvantageous than the other offer I had. After several emails and telephone conversations I came to the conclusion that these people lied to me and I decided to change lender because I did not feel comfortable continuing business with them. I have documents they sent me to print, sign and fax back, and the emails to confirm the original offer of 30 year fix, conventional at 3.75 %

State: AR

Complaint narrative:
To whom  this may concern : I mailed a Multiple Inquiry Removal Letter o n  XXXX   XXXX ,  2017  by certified mail in order to dispute information in regards to  XXXX  hard inquiries that are being reported on my file. They received the letter on  XXXX   XXXX ,  2017  and they completed the request on  XXXX   XXXX ,  2017 . The request I submitted included  XXXX  Hard Inquiries that were not factual and I received the same response for ALL INQUIRIES, which was " Inquiries are a factual  record of file. If you believe this was unauthorized please contact the creditor. '' According to the FCRA Rules, FCRA 623  ( b ) ( 2 ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ), it states that any information can be disputed and MUST BE INVESTIGATED, and if you do not investigate and respond, the CRA must delete the disputed information from the files. The fact that I received a response 4 days after the recipients received my certified letter, one can assume that there was no investigation into the matter. I plan to purchase a home this year and having this many hard inquiries on my Credit Reports displ ays a sign of financial trouble, when that is n't the case. I am submitting this complaint due to the lack of investigation into my original dispute for hard inquiries that do not belong to me. I did not sign for anything. This is unfair practices by a credit reporting agency with no concern for the credit worthiness for a consumer.
