Company: CAVALRY INVESTMENTS, LLC
State: HI

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX of XXXX someone opened an account in my name and after not paying it went to collections. It took me a few months to notice this fraudulent debt. 
I have not had a job since XX/XX/XXXX, my spouse and I had just moved with the military to Hawaii in XXXX of XXXX and closed on a new home in XXXX. We had no money and no credit to open an account especially since my credit score was so low in XXXX of XXXX. I disputed this multiple times with transunion and they have failed to help me. I had to meet with a credit agency in XXXX in order to join the military and that was the last time I ever had an account go to collections which was taken care of in order for me to join. I havent received anything in the mail from this which is just proof that they dont even have my correct address and it isnt me. It took months for me to see this. If it was mine I would be getting mail sent to me about said collection.

Complaint narrative:
Dear Kohl 's Credit, I hope this letter finds you well. My name is XXXX XXXX, and I have been a loyal consumer of Kohl 's department store products for quite some time. Recently, I decided to acquire a Kohl 's department store card in order to improve my credit. I was advised to use the credit and promptly pay off the bill, which I diligently did everytime prior to usingthe Kohl 's charge card this day. 

However, on this occasion, I found myself without cash to pay the bill and resorted to using my debit card instead. To my surprise, the clerk informed me that I could not use a debit card to settle my charge card bill. I couldn't understand why, as I believed that debit is essentially the same as cash, and not everyone carries cash all the time. Unfortunately, the clerk couldn't provide me with a satisfactory explanation and directed me to pay online. 

When I attempted to pay online later that day, I was met with a message stating that I did not have a bill to pay. This was the second issue I encountered. It was frustrating not being able to make the payment online as suggested. 

Several weeks later, I returned to the Kohl 's department store with the intention of paying off my balance. However, when I inquired about my balance, the clerk informed me that they were unable to provide that information. They suggested that I simply make a payment without knowing the exact amount I owed. This posed a significant problem for me, as how could I be expected to settle my debt when the very institution extending the credit couldn't disclose the amount I owed? The clerk then asked if I remembered how much I had spent, and based on that, I made a payment from what I remember from what I remember that I bought to the best of my recollection. My purchase was {$85.00} so thats what I paid and the clerk excepted my payment in full. I collected the receipt and Haven't used the card again. 

I am writing this letter to kindly request that you remove the negative remark from my credit report. I believe these issues were not due to any fault of my own, but rather a result of the lack of clarity and consistency in Kohl 's credit card policies and procedures. It is essential that customers have access to accurate and timely information regarding their account balances, as well as convenient and reliable payment options. 

I have been a satisfied customer of Kohl 's for a long time, and I hope that this matter can be resolved in a swift and satisfactory manner. I look forward to your prompt response and the removal of this negative remark from my credit report.

Company: BMO BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: RI

Complaint narrative:
My RV loan was transferred from one company to another. I realized I was behind in payments because I was unable to pay my loan on the old companies website and reach them by phone. The new company claimed they sent information that I never received.By the time I received the new companies information I was behind several months and on the phone with the new company I set up payment up to date of past due balances. The new company BMO, gave me confirmation of payment via email and stated they would send me information on auto pay by mail as they dont provide set up over the phone. No information was received by mail, email, or phone. Two months past when I realized that no information was being received by mail or email when I called BMO they said my loan had been written off and is now in recovery. They said the previous payment never went through. I told them I was never informed of that by email phone or mail. I asked if I could make all past due on payments that my account would go back to normal they said yes I proceeded to pay them only to find out that my account is to remain in a wrote off/ collections state which negatively effects my credit for 7 years. Ive asked to speak with management several times and customer service refuses to transfer me or let me speak with management. If my account was to be charged off and if a payment didnt go through I would expect and email phone call or letter notification giving me the opportunity to make payment before such a serious impact on me and my family.
