Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card
Company: Self Financial Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
Unfortunately, I have been a victim of fraud and my information has been compromised on the dark web. I was recently incarcerated from XXXX of XXXX until XXXX of XXXX. When I was first incarcerated I had a XXXX balance on this account. Upon being released from my incarceration my account was closed and there were no funds available in my account. I informed the credit card company that there was no way that I could have made transactions at this time because of my incarceration and somebody had assumed my identity during this period ; additionally, I provided the company with proof of incarceration and documentation illustrating these facts. However, the credit card company still has not resolved this matter and have denied my claim stating that I had made the transactions. This is untrue as I have not given anyone permission to access my accounts and funding. The company has defrauded and this has destroyed my credit, causing me undue hardship.

This item is possibly causing violating infringements and injury to my credibility. 

While studying my report, I have come across a number of mistakes and inaccuracies that you are reporting. Please review and eradicate any and all of these following unproven entries, which fail to meet the standards of being precise, correct, complete, timely, mine, my responsibility, FCRA compliant, XXXX XXXX Format compliant, or otherwise compliant to every single applicable regulation, law, and standard of reporting that you are mandated to obey without default or deficiency of any sort. 

The following challenged data is among such items, all of which require immediate deletion or removal from reporting. I rightfully demand that you do so todayimmediately, now, and here! 

Below is the currently mandated, yet not apodictic, valid, or certifiably compliant information I mark as being in question : Name : ALSO KNOWN AS : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I bought the XXXX XXXX Limited-Edition Bundle in the XXXX website on XX/XX/XXXX for {$860.00} through PayPal Pay in 4 installments. I never received the package so I filed a dispute on PayPal on XX/XX/XXXX as XXXX is notorious for not responding to customers. I also filed a claim with XXXX as XXXX asked. The case took a month with multiple back and forth with PayPal ( about why the case was taking longer than expected ), XXXX, and XXXX ( multiple investigations about me still not receiving my package. PayPal closed the case in favor on XXXX. I called PayPal customer service and asked if there was anything else I could do and the representative said the next best option would be to dispute with my bank, so I did. I have paid 3/4 ( {$650.00} ) of the installments so I disputed those and XXXX XXXX  settled in favor of me and I was credited back that money. However, I was berated with calls and messages from PayPal claiming that I owed the total amount ( {$860.00} ). I contacted my bank and they said they had already notified Payal. To be sure, I called PayPal customer service and was transferred from the general representative to the financial specialist to the Pay in 4 representative to the dispute team with no one understanding my problem. The case has been settled in my favor with my bank, thus I should no longer have to pay anything. A few weeks after submitting a claim to the Consumer Finance Bureau, I received a call from someone at corporate PayPal explicitly stating that I didnt owe PayPal anything and that they were sorry for the events. However, I tried to use PayPal credit for a purchase and I received a letter in the mail on XX/XX/XXXX stating that I was denied because this same installment was delinquent. This has probably already affected my credit score and the PayPal representative deliberately lied to me.
