Complaint narrative:
I did a third party deposit of a check to my fiance, I did not know this was not allowed and even learned how to complete it from the Sofi website. Instead of just rejecting the deposit they have frozen all of my funds in checking and savings leaving me with nothing for 3 days now. When I can they tell me nothing that I have to wait for the internal team to complete their review and I can not speak with them nor can they tell me how long this will take. I have repeatedly asked to speak with a supervisor and one is never available and they will have to call me back. I have yet to receive a call back. They are providing me with no information and no access to any of my money. I have not eaten for 3 days and it is now Friday and the weekend about to begin. All of the funds in this account are mine from previous direct deposits they have already rejected the third party deposit which is fine but not telling me anything regarding my funds or timeframe is just not acceptable. Please help!

( XXXX  ) for failing to comply with their obligations under 15 USC 1666 ( b ) and 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) regarding the reinvestigation of a late payment on my account.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX c/o XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX California [ XXXX ] XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : Formal Complaint and Cease and Desist Order Against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau , I am writing to file a formal complaint and issue a cease-and-desist order against XXXX  XXXX for multiple violations of federal laws and regulations, as well as against Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX for their roles in reporting inaccurate and unauthorized information. 

The crux of the inaccuracy in XXXX XXXX reporting lies in their knowledge that the debt in question was discharged. Despite this knowledge, XXXX  XXXX continued to furnish information related to my account to Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX, which is a clear violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). 

XXXX XXXX unlawfully attempted to collect on a discharged debt, which is considered a certificate of indebtedness by the Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ). According to IRS regulations, such discharged debt can not be reported as income. XXXX XXXX has failed to provide me with a 1099-C for the cancelled debt as required by law. This failure to comply with IRS reporting requirements and the misreporting of my account as a debt rather than a certificate of indebtedness are clear violations of federal statutes. 

In addition to these violations, XXXX XXXX has breached its own terms and conditions by sharing my information with non-affiliates, without my explicit consent. This action disregards my right to privacy as a federally protected consumer under the Privacy Act of 1974. 

Moreover, XXXX XXXX failed to inform me of my right to exercise my nondisclosure option, as mandated by 15 U.S. Code 6802 ( b ) ( c ). This failure, coupled with the unauthorized inclusion of adverse information in my consumer report by Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX, further demonstrates the systemic disregard for consumer rights and legal obligations. 

I hereby demand that XXXX XXXX immediately delete the adverse and update to paid as agreed and cease all further reporting to Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX. This cease-and-desist order is issued in accordance with federal laws and regulations governing consumer rights and privacy. 

I also request a thorough investigation into the actions of XXXX XXXX, Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX regarding their handling of my account information and the inaccurate reporting of my financial status. This letter serves as my final attempt to resolve this matter amicably before pursuing further legal action, including filing complaints with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this serious matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I booked a vacation package from XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX that included a hotel and a rental car for my vacation from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. This vacation package included a nine-day rental of a full-sized car from XXXX. My flight was delayed and the flight number is even included on the itinerary of my XXXX XXXX vacation package. So I decided to modify only the pickup time. The rental car reservation number is XXXX. 

When I went to pick up the car, XXXX said that they couldn't find my reservation number in their system, but I had already paid for the rental car through XXXX. 

They forced me to pay for the same car again using my American Express XXXX XXXX. 

I tried to dispute this transaction with American Express, but the merchant and the bank refused to recognize that I paid for the rental car twice. American Express even alleged that the transaction dates didn't match. I planned my vacation ahead of time and paid for the vacation package on XX/XX/XXXX. The vacation package is for my vacation from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. I am attaching the full invoice and itinerary to this complaint.
