Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account — Transaction was not authorized
Company: Block, Inc.
State: KY

Complaint narrative:
Hello, My account is typically used for everyday purchases such as food, bills, gas, subscriptions, and other services I choose to pay for. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, while attending a staff training event for work, I noticed my phone vibrating repeatedly. Assuming it was just messages from a group chat, I ignored it to stay focused on the training. Once the event ended, I checked my phone and discovered XXXX successful charges of {$11.00} eachtotaling $ XXXX a company called XXXX. I had not authorized any of these transactions. 

I immediately reached out to CashApp customer service to report the issue. The representative I spoke with was helpful and presented a few options, one of which included contacting the merchant directly for a refund. I followed through and submitted a refund request to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX ( reference # : XXXX ). 

I've attached screenshots of my communication with XXXX  support. Initially, an agent named XXXX escalated my case to another support member, XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX responded, stating : " However, since you did not authorize these charges, we have gone ahead and refunded them. Please allow up to 5-10 business days for the full refund to reflect in your bank and/or XXXX account. '' Based on this, the refund should have been received by XX/XX/XXXX at the latest. 

Despite this, I have not received any refund to date. I followed up with XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX but never received a response. As shown in the attached messages, I made several attempts to be patient and understanding, yet there was no further communication from their team. XXXX  specifically warned against filing a bank dispute, stating it could lead to account removalso I initially held off in hopes theyd resolve it. 

After weeks of silence, I attempted to submit new support tickets through XXXX 's system, but received no response. Realizing the situation was going nowhere, I finally contacted CashApp again to initiate a formal dispute. On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted all XXXX unauthorized charges for review. On XX/XX/XXXX, I was notified that all of the disputes had been denied, despite clear evidence : multiple charges made in rapid succession, confirmation from XXXX acknowledging the charges were unauthorized, and their own promise of a refund. 

Then, on XX/XX/XXXX, I was shocked to discover my CashApp account had been deactivated due to allegations of fraud. I was left with no further explanationjust locked out of an account I had used responsibly for over four years. 

At no point did I commit fraud. All I have done is try to recover money that was taken without my authorization. The lack of resolutionand now being penalized as if I were the one at faulthas been deeply frustrating and unjust. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - Images to email communications with XXXX  Thank you, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX XXXX, I contacted TransUnion Credit Reporting Company to lock my account due to a significant XXXX XXXX XXXX data breach. Later, I attempted to unlock the account without success. I contacted TransUnion on XX/XX/XXXX, and they stated that they did not show any credit account under my name. After some back-and-forth calling and investigation, I was informed that Trans Union has, for unknown reasons, two separate profiles for me. That is, they'll be merging these two profiles, and the problem will be eliminated. To this day, I have spent countless hours over the phone and through writing to get this lazy company to merge their files, fix this issue, and notify me of the result. Since XXXX of this year, on three separate occasions, they have requested copies of identification documents, proof of address, and billing statements, among other documents, so that they may merge their duplicate records, all to no avail. 

As of XX/XX/XXXX, my purchasing capability is significantly compromised. I was unable to purchase a XXXX under my name because the automobile leasing and sales industries primarily use TransUnion reporting, and I do not have a credit history showing with this company as of this date. 

I have to return my current leased car and purchase a new vehicle in thirty days. However, Trans Union is not fulfilling its role in addressing this problem, which it unilaterally created, leaving me in a difficult situation. Attached is one of their several letters requesting information which I have complied to all of them sending proof to them, Each time I call them, I have to go through a series of questions, wait on the phone for 2-3 hours, and get transferred to a higher level, only to be told and promised that they'll take care of this out-of-the-blue issue. I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and have been a responsible individual throughout my life with respectable credit scores. However, due to this Trans Union duplicate records issue, I am left in a precarious and difficult situation where I am unable to make any purchases.

Complaint narrative:
I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.
