Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX needs to be deleted from my credit report. 
They charged off the debt and sold the debt to XXXX XXXX XXXX. By law of fdcpa, when a debt is charged off and sold, that means the consumer has no more obligation to the debt. They have refused to remove this and this is discrimination. This has illegally damaged my credit for the past few years, and i will sue the credit bureaus for damages if this is not removed in 15 days!

Complaint narrative:
To whom it may concern : IQ data international This complaint is regarding account # XXXX, which you claim I owe {$4700.00} for a collection account. This is a formal notice that your claim is disputed. I am requesting validation, made pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Fair Credit Reporting Act, along with 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ) which explain that a collections agency can not place a collection on a consumers report without first providing validation. I must be given the chance to dispute according to 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( 1 ). Also, a collection agency has no authority to furnish any account to a consumer reporting agency without providing any and all disclosures required by law and they are in clear violation of 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ) and 15 USC 1681-s2 ( 7 ) ( A ). Please also be aware that any negative marks found on my credit reports ( including XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ) from your company or any company that you represent, for a debt that I dont owe, is a violation of the CFR, FCRA and FDCPA : therefore, If you can not validate the debt, you must request that all credit reporting agencies delete the entry. Pending the outcome of my investigation of any evidence of any evidence that you submit, you are instructed to take no action that could be detrimental to any of my credit reports.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
I tried to pay my Capital One XXXX XXXX credit card on XX/XX/24 and Capital One refused my routing number and account number from a savings account. 

At least three representatives over the phone could not tell me why my account could not be used for payment, including a manager named XXXX ( Employee : XXXX ). I finally reached another supervisor XXXX ( Employee : XXXX ) -- who explained that because a payment last month had been returned, I would need a letter proving my XXXX  money market account had been brought out of dormant status. ( I tried to make the XXXX payment unaware of that status ; it has since been reactivated ). 

XXXX answered my question within moments and now I know the next steps to take. XXXX was unhelpful to the point of being patronizing. He claimed it was impossible to determine why the system was rejecting my account. He was also cagey about the complaint process for Capital One and said that I would need to send a letter to Capital One in XXXX XXXX XXXX. He said I would probably never hear back from Capital One about my complaint. I was just getting ready to file a complaint with the XXXX  when they let me know about XXXX. XXXX either lied about the complaint process or didn't know about it ( he did take my complaint over the phone ). 

Through this discouraging process, I learned Capital One reviews complaints internally and customers do not get replies. That is poor business practice to say the least.
