Consumer complaint received 2024-10-25 00:00:00
Product: Credit card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I have a credit card and savings account with Capital One. I believed the credit card was closed. However, in looking up my savings account at the end of XX/XX/year>. I saw there was a {$160.00} charge on the credt card account. I phoned Capital One who told me it was a XXXX transaction from XX/XX/year>. I was happy to pay the {$97.00} amount charged by XXXX, but I was not willing to pay the late fees. I had received no communication on having an outstanding debt. I was told to call XXXX and dispute the charge, which I did. XXXX told me I couldn't disput it as the transaction was from XXXX. I changed the card XXXX had on file for future transactions. XXXX, I phoned Capital One. The outstanding balance is now {$210.00}. I was willing to pay the {$97.00} as I felt this my my genuine responsibility. However, I am not happy that I am being charged over {$110.00} in late fees and interest. The lady I spoke to was willing to take XXXX of the {$40.00} late fee charges off the account. When I asked to speak to her supervisor and repeated my request to pay the {$97.00} but not the late fees and interest. I was told the total payment would be {$210.00} this included late fees from the credit card cycle!. I paid the amount and closed the account. 
I believe I would have noticed if I got late fee email notifications from Capital One. I also believe because I have a savings account with the company, some red flag should have been raised in their system that this was not a regular occurance. I feel the message the Capital One company is sending... we are happy to take your hard earned money in late fees and interest, lets not educate people. This is not a mission statement one should be proud of. In today 's ecomony when so many are struggling I feel this is so wrong, which I expressed to the woman I spoke with.

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 XXXX 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 ( XXXX ) 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.
