Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement — Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement
Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024 I was visiting XXXX on a cruise. I went to XXXX to XXXX and went to a local merchant to purchase a souvenir magnet. The merchant insisted on selling me coins as well and would keep trying to bargain on a price with me. After XXXX mins of no-s he eventually said XXXX ( {$21.00} ) for both the magnet and the coins. I agreed and he took my credit card and charged me. I did not see the reader, a screen, or anything and when I asked for a receipt he refused. I did not sign anything either. A few hours later I see a charge on my card from the merchant for {$260.00} dollars. By then my ship already departed and I could not contact the merchant. I immediately notified my bank, Chase, and they said they would handle it.

Now almost 2 months later Chase is saying that the charges are valid and they will not be assisting me with this dispute because the merchant provided a receipt of the amount. Of course he provided a receipt, he was the one that charged me that insane amount for a magnet and coins! I tried calling Chase and telling them the situation but the insisted that I was " not accepting the facts ''. How can I provide any more information that a merchant overcharged me? Chase Bank has ineffectively handled this situation and should be penalized for treating their customers with such disregard.

Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score — Other problem getting your report or credit score
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
I had my credit score frozen and I attempted to unfreeze the account so that I could run my credit to obtain a motor vehicle loan. I was unable to access my account. I called Experian to address the issue and was told that my account had been compromised as well as an XXXX XXXX Account had been opened in my name. As a result, my account has been locked and I can not gain access until I prove my identity. I have faxed all the required documentation but can not get an answer as to how long this process takes. All the while I have a car dealership asking me what is going on and when will I know when the issue will be resolved. It is also worth noting that Experian customer service is horrible and it is almost impossible to get a live person to speak with. This should be investigated as they are in control of people 's lives and could care less about helping anyone.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
" I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding unauthorized accounts that persist on my credit report despite my repeated efforts to have them removed. These accounts are causing significant damage to my financial reputation and overall well-being. It is evident that the inclusion of these fraudulent items violates 15 USC 1681b regarding permissible purposes, as the credit bureaus have no legitimate reason to report them without my explicit consent. Please refer to the attached file detailing these items I am disputing.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. ''

Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late.

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX Bank account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.
