Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
This is a continuation to XXXX, to demonstrate that I am STILL unable to access my American Express account . This type of unexplained " technical difficulty '' has never happened with my account until I opened the complaint about the way the Plan It Plan failed to be accounted for in my Adjusted Balance. I have provided another screen recording showing the date on my phone to verify that I am still getting the same error. I do not physically have the card anymore since I closed all my accounts. I scroll up and down on the error screen to see if there is any more information, but it's ambiguous. Again, this type of error has not happened in the 10 years prior as an American Express customer until we began this complaint process regarding the Plan It Plans and Adjusted Balance.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I wish to underscore that the inclusion of inaccurately reported late payment remarks on my accounts not only raises significant concerns but also represents a blatant violation of the regulations delineated in the 15 USC 1666. This statute, an integral component of the Fair Credit Billing Act, specifically aims to safeguard consumers against unjust billing practices and mandates the accurate reporting of payment histories. Each payment associated with these accounts has been diligently and promptly rendered within the specified timeframes. Therefore, any deviation from this precise reporting not only undermines my financial integrity but also contravenes the legal protections enshrined within this statute. It is imperative to promptly rectify this situation to ensure compliance with the law and uphold the rights of consumers.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: CAVALRY INVESTMENTS, LLC
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
Using a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX I had debts negotiated for settlement which both parties ( myself and debt collector ) had to agree to. Calvary had to agree to the terms of the settlement as well. They continue to be the only of all 6 settled debts to report inaccurately to the credit bureaus. Officially the agreed upon settlement amount has now been paid in full by me through XXXX XXXX XXXX but Calvary continues to report a balance owed to the credit bureaus. The entire time I have been in a settlement agreement with them they have reported a higher balance than the agreed upon amount - again, an amount that they had to accept and did accept. I just want this to be made right, Ive done my part. Paid the debt, it should no longer reflect as a collection on my credit report.

Complaint narrative:
The conspicuous lack of concrete evidence substantiating its reliability, coupled with the circulation of unverified information, constitutes a flagrant violation of the statutory provisions outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). Such regulatory non-compliance is not merely disconcerting but also vexing, considering the paramount importance of adherence to legal mandates. Consequently, I emphatically endorse the prompt deletion of this account in alignment with the stipulated regulations, unless credible evidence is promptly furnished to affirm its authenticity. The failure to promptly rectify this matter further compounds the exasperation stemming from the disregard for legal protocols.

Company: Credit Control, LLC
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
Unbeknownst to me until XX/XX/XXXX, in XX/XX/XXXX a XXXX XXXX account was fraudulently opened in my name. This was the same month I moved. 
In XX/XX/XXXX I received a notice from XXXX collection agency. I also saw this debt on my credit report and filed a fraud alert. I called XXXX and spoke to XXXX, advising them this was fraud. XXXX advised I needed to contact XXXX directly. I called XXXX and spoke to XXXX who advised the account was closed on their end, that they would note this as fraud, but that XXXX could not assist any further since this account went to collections/Sequium. 
I followed up with XXXX periodically via phone and email for a status, last being XX/XX/XXXX, continually being advised there were no new updates. 
In XX/XX/XXXX I received a new collections notice from XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent them a detailed letter advising this is fraud and I asked for proof of debt I still have yet to receive. I received no response. I also filed a dispute with XXXX around that time which did not result in the debt being removed. 
I sent another letter on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX requested to XXXX XXXX XXXX and regular mail to their po box listed on my credit report. I again advised that this is fraud and requested specific proof that I opened this account. To date I have not received a response. Instead, on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a new collection agency notice from Credit Control Collections for {$6000.00}. I responded to Credit Control on XX/XX/XXXX via email, with attachments, requesting specific copies of proof of debt and have received no response to date. 
XXXX is also non-responsive. To date, XXXX nor any XXXX of the XXXX collection agencies have provided me with the required proof that shows I opened this account and am responsible for this debt. All I have received to date were copies of unpaid bills from XXXX, sent to me in XX/XX/XXXX. 
I filed a second dispute with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and included the XX/XX/XXXX letter to XXXX with proof of receipt, advising they have been non-responsive. It was investigated and denied again today, XX/XX/XXXX. 
I am filing this complaint because I have exhausted all remedies. I need assistance, resolution, getting this fraudulent debt removed from my credit reports. 
Thank you.
