When I called back the lady said she couldn't find any record of me in the system but gave me the run around and wouldn't connect me to someone from the debt collections department.

2023-08-03 | Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports | Credit reporting | Incorrect information on your report | Personal information incorrect | By the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 USC 1681 section 602 ( a ), consumer reporting agencies must handle their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and respect for consumers ' privacy rights. XXXX and Experian are consumer reporting agencies, and I am the consumer. As a consumer, I possess the right to safeguard my private information, supported by 15 USC 6801, emphasizing that financial institutions are obligated to protect customers ' nonpublic personal information. Under 15 USC 1681 section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ), a consumer reporting agency can only furnish a consumer report if instructed in writing by the respective consumer. I have not given XXXX, Experian, or XXXX XXXX ( financial institution ) written consent for furnishing information to the credit agencies. Therefore, any consent given in the past, be it verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or otherwise, is now revoked permanently. Furthermore, 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) dictates that a financial institution can not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party without informing the consumer about their right to a nondisclosure option. However, the institution furnishing information to the credit agencies never told me of this right. Additionally, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) explicitly states that no consumer reporting agency can include adverse information in a consumer report without proper authorization. This XXXX XXXX account ending XXXX on the XXXX report with late payments and history ending XXXX with negative news on XXXX XXXX Report being reported as an adverse action, and it is being said without my consent, which is a violation of the law. Moreover, 15 USC 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A makes it clear that no information should be furnished to a consumer reporting agency if it is known to be inaccurate. XXXX and Experian are failing to maintain reasonable procedures to prevent violations of section 1681c and restrict the furnishing of consumer reports to authorized purposes, as required by 15 USC 1681e. I have over nine hard inquiries from a list of companies, and 8 of them I've NEVER done business with. Lastly, by 12 CFR 1016.7, I retain the right to opt out of your reporting services anytime. Therefore, I am opting out of your reporting services immediately. I opted out a few years ago, and still, my information has been shared. I've used preemptive measures such as Identify theft programs for over two years to prevent inquiries, and I have been violated. In summary, I expect XXXX, Experian, and XXXX XXXX, as consumer reporting agencies, to adhere to the legal requirements outlined in the FCRA and other relevant regulations, ensuring that my private information is handled with fairness, accuracy, and respect for my privacy rights. As a consumer, I am asserting my rights and requesting that my data not be disclosed without proper authorization.

2019-04-17 | Student loan | Federal student loan servicing | Struggling to repay your loan | Can't get other flexible options for repaying your loan | NAVIENT is intentionally delaying the approval of income-based payment plan application forcing me to repeatedly ask for administrative forbearance.
After submitting my application electronically in XX/XX/2019 I was asked to provide proof of income which I did in XXXX. Then I was told it was missing a date which I included and resubmitted. After this was called several times to check on the status and I was told to just wait and that the proof of income I provided was sufficient. When I called today, XX/XX/2019 -- only four days away from the due date of an over {$600.00} payment ( which I can NOT pay ), they told me that I have to submit a signed letter stating my gross monthly income. The proof of income I previously submitted already has that information yet they ask for a letter and offer to push to payment due date or put me in forbearance for a third or fourth time. Even if I send in this letter, the processing time is 17 days which means it would be far beyond the payment due date by the time it is processed even if it is accepted. They did not ask me for a letter the previous two times and waited until I had no time left to force my hand into forbearance or a missed payment.
I asked them where I can file a complaint but said there is no phone number for such a service. I also look online but no such page exists on their site. | null | Navient Solutions, LLC. | DC | 200XX | null | Consent provided | Web | 2019-04-17 | Closed with explanation | Yes | null | 3,215,178 |

However, the loan was on an Active/Performing Unemployment Forbearance Plan. The Unemployment Forbearance was submitted XX/XX/XXXX and approved XX/XX/XXXX effective XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$390.00}. Ditech erroneously cancelled the Unemployment Forbearance Plan on XX/XX/XXXX due to the automated process of a Loan Modification Solicitation being mailed. A complaint was filed on XX/XX/XXXX and Ditech remediated the error and obtained approval from the Investor XXXX XXXX for an extension of the existing Unemployment Forbearance. Correspondence was received from Ditech ( XXXX XXXX ) dated XX/XX/XXXX indicating the Unemployment Forbearance Extension was approved effective XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$390.00}. The loan was under Error Resolution review XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. Unemployment Forbearance payments were Paid as Agreed, as stipulated XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX.
The credit reporting account status should have been reported as Active Forbearance -Paying as Agreed XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. According to 12 CFR Part 1024.35 ( b ) and ( i ) Regulation X of the Error Resolution Procedures the Mortgage Servicer ( Ditech ), after receipt of a notice of error, a servicer may not, for 60 days, furnish adverse information to any consumer reporting agency regarding any payment that is the subject of the notice of error. Therefore, the loan should not have been reported as delinquent XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX as the loan was under review for the complaint filed XX/XX/XXXX. The loan was also brought current XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$7.00}, XXXX and should have been reported as current for XX/XX/XXXX. In addition, the Investors ( XXXX XXXX ) Credit Bureaus Requirements ( C0-4.1 ) also require the Servicer ( Ditech ) to provide a complete and accurate full- file status report for all mortgage loans to each of the four major credit bureaus describing the exact status of each mortgage loan as of the last day of each month ( delinquent mortgage loans including 30, 60, 90+ day delinquencies, forbearances, modifications and liquidated mortgages ).

I am writing you to dispute the fraudulent charge of {$1100.00} to my credit card account on XXXX XXXX 2022. This charge is in error because it is fraudulent. I did not make this charge to my card. I notified you of this XXXX XX/XX/2022 as soon I saw the fraudulent charge.
I am requesting that the error be corrected, that any finance or other charges related to the disputed amount be credited to my account, and that I get an accurate statement. I understand that Federal Law limits my responsibility for unauthorized charges to {$50.00}. Your literature states that I have {$0.00} Fraud liability and that I wont be held responsible for fraudulent charges.
I reported the fraudulent charge on XXXX XX/XX/2022 at XXXX hours. Less than 12 hours later I was informed that the charge was being upheld because the chip was used. I contacted your Customer Service to get clarification. Your agent stated that because the chip in the card was used, it could not be a fraudulent charge. A quick internet search debunks this claim.
I made several more calls to your customer service on XXXX XX/XX/2022 between the hours of XXXX and XXXX. You note in your disclosure, before the agent comes on the line, that all of these calls are recorded. I was disconnected multiple times. One can only hope this was accidental.
You did not investigate the charge any further. This was demonstrated when you directed me to contact the agent submitting the charge, SUMUP. The phone number you provided was incorrect. It contacted the U.S. company by that name, however, the agent involved is in XXXX.
When I called again, I was directed to call the merchant listed. I had already attempted to contact them with the number listed on my statement. That number is not a phone number at all. No variation of adding the country code or city code for an international call transforms this into a working phone number.
Next, I was directed to call the merchant listed as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I had already researched this information. I reported my findings to your agent.

A month later we started being billed for another dishwasher,. I contacted the credit card company which is run by Synchrony Bank. I filled a fraud report and they found in our favor and issued a charge back. This was sent back to Lowe 's and they turned it down and continued charging us.

2021-12-08 | Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports | Credit reporting | Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem | Their investigation did not fix an error on your report | Hi, This matter is with Bank of America. I had a line of credit with them and each month I make a {$100.00} payment. In XXXX I made monthly payments as usual. Then I received a late notice ( I can not remember the exact date, but it was the later half of the year ). I called BofA and found out my payments were going to an Unapplied Account, but they do see the payments and said they will move the funds over to my account. At that time, I did tell them that this had happened to me a few years back also ... my payments were being applied elsewhere, and then I would get a late notice, I had to call to get them to reapply it to my account...
Then, a few months later in XXXX, it happened again, this time when I called, the Rep said the same thing again, that they see the payment but it's in the unapplied funds account. The difference this time was she told me that the loan had matured and I had to pay it off. So I said ok, and I paid it off.
Fast forward to XXXX, I'm in the process of refinancing my home, and that was when I found out that BofA reported me 4-5 months paying late. I tried calling BofA multiple times. First time they said their reporting is accurate, I tried disputing it but got no response. Third try got no response either. But the Rep told me she will send me the payment history on file and I can file a report with the Credit Bureaus. When I got that statement I sent it to my lender. He told me the statement was hard and confusing to read, which I do agree. But that goes to show that BofA was messy applying my payments. So I printed out my payment history from my bank also, which clearly shows I made my payments each month, and made a payoff amount of {$4000.00} in XXXX.
So my lender suggested I also file a dispute with the 3 credit bureaus. He wrote the cover letter for me and told me to mail it with my payment history. So I Certified Mail them on XX/XX/XXXX. I received the Dispute Result letter yesterday XX/XX/XXXX. The results says the " Outcome Remains '' I feel that XXXX also failed me. I sent in my payment history as proof that I was never late, and they didn't even take that into consideration.
I would like to file this complaint on both Bank of America and XXXX. Bank of America for reporting inaccurate information and not correcting the issue, and XXXX for not doing their due diligence on my behalf.
I can send you the payment history statement that BofA sent me and also my payment history that I printed out from my bank for you to review.
Thank you for your time and I hope you can resolve this issue for me. | Company has responded to the consumer and the CFPB and chooses not to provide a public response | BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION | CA | 92843 | null | Consent provided | Web | 2021-12-08 | Closed with non-monetary relief | Yes | null | 4,989,717 |

2016-09-06 | Debt collection | Credit card | Disclosure verification of debt | Not given enough info to verify debt | I am writing this missive to complain about unfair collection practices of a law firm, Andreu, Palma, Lavin, Solis.

I IMMEDIATELY wrote a letter attempting to understand who they were and who they were representing as well as any facts germane to this collection.

XX/XX/XXXX I reached out directly to XXXX XXXX who is a partner in the aforementioned law firm. He acknowledged receipt of my letter and admitted that he willfully and intentionally ignored it as he " thought these questions had already been answered ''. Are n't creditors obligated to respond to the person with whom they have a dispute with in a timely fashion? Are they allowed to ignore legitimate requests for information? How can I defend myself or even proceed to negotiation if I am not in possession of all the facts. The answer is, I can not! I would like this to be resolved by your agency. I want this debt to go away and any public record of this action to be expunged. I believe it is illegal to ignore a good faith request for information.

2023-07-18 | Debt collection | Other debt | False statements or representation | Attempted to collect wrong amount | My wife and I rented an apartment from XXXXXXXX XXXX in XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. We noticed " admin fees '' were being added to our rent each month for roughly {$180.00} and when we asked what it was for, we were told not to worry about it because they would be reimbursing us for these fees in the form of gift cards and we were also told these gift cards could be used to pay rent. See XXXX. XXXX email from XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. These cards were to be issued by a 3rd party called XXXX XXXX, a company that XXXX partnered with to provide gifts to their residents and seem to be doing business with them regularly.
In the email attachments included, you will see that the gift cards, in fact, were not able to be used for rent when trying to apply them to my debt multiple times. I have documented pictures and proof of the cards not working and her team letting me know they should work and they would be contacting the company. See XXXX XXXX with error messages I was getting from their website attempting to use the gift cards and sending this to the leasing team. I sent the emails containing the gift card links back to the leasing office as soon as they didn't work. I was told they would work with the company to address this issue and I had to continuously follow up with them for a few months until I finally heard back in XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, the manager, informed us that they requested the gift card balance be sent back to them to apply directly to our account. I followed up with them for a month and received no response. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX informed me that management would apply a concession in the amount of {$2300.00} as per her email on XXXX XXXXXXXX. At this time, I did nothing with the gift cards as we were told that management would be removing the credit from them and using it towards our concession. 2 months went by and we heard nothing from from so I followed up as our lease was coming up and they had our security deposit and had not issued the concession they were claiming we should've received in XXXX. I was ignored and when we moved out, they didn't mention the gift cards again. Before we moved out, I let them know again that they failed to send us the concession that was promised in XXXX and that they could take that money and apply it to the last month rent as we did not want them stealing money from us. They finally replied to us, after we moved out, claiming they reached out to XXXX XXXX to reissue gift cards, which never happened, and that we still owed them money. And then, last month, I was contacted by Columbia Debt Recovery and was informed that I owed them the remaining balance of {$2200.00} and it was starting to accrue interest. I pled my case to the credit bureaus but they could do nothing so I'm hoping this can help resolve what I believe is not my debt to pay. | null | Rowland Avenue Management, Inc.

2023-08-02 | Debt collection | Credit card debt | Attempts to collect debt not owed | Debt is not yours | I am writing to express my serious concern and dissatisfaction regarding the continued communication from Midland Credit Management despite my explicit request for cessation of communication as per 15 U.S. Code 1692c. Pursuant to this federal statute, I exercised my right to cease communication in connection with the debt that you are attempting to collect.
Under 15 U.S. Code 1692c - Communication in connection with debt collection, it is clearly stated that if a consumer notifies a debt collector in writing that they refuse to pay a debt or wish for the debt collector to cease further communication, the debt collector must comply with this request and refrain from any further communication regarding the debt. This includes any form of communication, whether direct or indirect, through any medium.
I previously filed a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regarding Midland Credit Management 's practices. In response to that complaint, I was informed that Midland Credit Management claimed they would cease and desist communication. However, it has come to my attention that despite this claim, I am still receiving communications from your company, which is a direct violation of the statute mentioned above.
It is essential to note that the term " communication '' encompasses the conveying of information regarding a debt through any medium. My consumer reports, which your company is using to report information, are also a medium of communication. By failing to cease communication through all mediums, including but not limited to consumer reports, Midland Credit Management is violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and my rights as a consumer.
I want to bring to your attention that I am aware of my rights as a consumer, and I am fully prepared to take appropriate legal action to protect those rights. Under the FCRA, I am entitled to accurate and fair credit reporting. If every account that your company is reporting on me is not removed immediately, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action for the violations outlined in this letter. Please be advised that I can seek damages of {$1000.00} per violation, which could result in substantial financial consequences for your company.
I expect this matter to be rectified promptly. I request that you cease all communication through any medium, including consumer reports, and remove any accounts associated with my name from your reporting immediately. I also request written confirmation of the cessation of communication and the removal of accounts.
Your immediate attention to this matter is crucial, as further violations will result in legal action. I hope we can resolve this matter amicably and avoid unnecessary legal proceedings.
Thank you for your prompt attention. | null | ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC. | VA | 23236 | null | Consent provided | Web | 2023-08-02 | Closed with explanation | Yes | null | 7,341,111 |
2020-11-03 | Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports | Credit reporting | Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem | Their investigation did not fix an error on your report | I worked for a company that had an XXXX XXXX account and that issued employees cards. If an employee used the card for personal purchases, then the company policy was to pay XXXX XXXX directly for the amount used. Which I an other employee 's did. The company went under during Covid and I began getting notice 's and bills from XXXX XXXX addressed to me personally. Mind you I have never had a personal XXXX XXXX card or account and in fact was denied a card the only time I applied. I Made disputes which XXXX replied to the credit bureaus that it was legitimate without supplying a copy of the application or any personal identifying information. I notified the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and Experian at least adjusted my credit score but did not remove the false delinquency information. The other two agencies still have my score over XXXX points below Experian ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX responded to me that since I paid my portion of the Bill I was responsible for the balance of the Company 's bill! I spoke with a person who would only provide her first name, XXXX, and she said its their policy. It's a crime to tell a deliberate falsehood to a regulatory type agency like credit bureau 's. I questioned if the other former employee 's were also targeted and they would not answer. But my contact with them disclosed that none of them contacted received any deliquencies from XXXX XXXX. The company was a S-corporation with its own tax id number and the law provides XXXX XXXX with a way of addressing the corporation. XXXX XXXX choose to notify the credit bureau that the accounts were closed but in doing so the closure remains as a delinquency on my personal report. a delinquency that has been closed is still a delinquency in the eyes of other creditors. I have been denied the smallest of credit lines and denied the ability to refinance my mortgage with the historically low interest rates because of this action. i know that XXXX XXXX is a large corporation but they should not have the right to submit false unsubstantiated delinquencies without governance. I would like your help in having the false information completely removed from all of my credit reports. Closing of the account is not removal from the report. if the CFPB is unable to have the credit bureau 's correct clearly wrong delinquency information on a Credit Report, then it's effectiveness is limited at best and useless at it worse.
My research shows that this is a new agency and therefore XXXX not be fully aware of the effect that actions like mine have on a persons credit life, but I also found it that the creation of the Bureau was for such a time as this.

2019-09-17 | Checking or savings account | Checking account | Opening an account | Unable to open an account | On XX/XX/XXXX I went to Wells Fargo at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX NM XXXX, to request open a Checking Account for an MSB ( Money Service Business ) and was referred to the business banker XXXX XXXX, who kindly took my information to begin the process. He got our XXXX docs articles of organization, EIN, personal info ITIN number, identificacion number, etc. And then, he contacted to his corporate or his Wells Fargo MSB center to request more information to start the process. They got the preliminary information and they asked him to transfer the call to me, so they told me about 90 days process starting at that point to get a resolution. Also, they toldme that I would receive a package of information requested in 7 days thru XXXX, a checks list, and some forms to fill out.
On XX/XX/XXXX since we did not received the package I went again to the local branch to ask about the process, then the business banker called to the MSB center of Wells Fargo and they said the something. So I had to keep waiting.
On XX/XX/XXXX, finally I got the package with the forms and the check list. The case was asigned to the Wells Fargo EDDC at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NC XXXX, to the Wells Fargo analyst Mr. XXXX XXXX XXXX, with the case number : XXXX.
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent the full requested info thru USPS Certified and return receipt signature.
On XX/XX/XXXX the package I sent was delivered by XXXX XXXX, and we got the returned receipt signed.
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent the same information in digital format to the local Wells Fargo Business Banker XXXX XXXX, to make sure both sides have the full information requested, and the help him to follow up the case.
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent the same digital copies to XXXX XXXX to his email XXXX to make easier his process, but he never answer the email.
On XX/XX/XXXX, I wrote a new email asking for the status to XXXX XXXX, business banker ; XXXX XXXX, director of branch, and XXXX XXXX Analyst of the case, and expresing the big concern of the other financial institution with who we bank currently and the big fees we are paying for cash withdrawals, an average of {$1200.00} per month, and I did not receive any answer. Mr. XXXX XXXX just ignored my email. No answer was received.
On XX/XX/XXXX finally Mr. XXXX XXXX made contact with me over the phone and in a rude and desperate rush way he started refusing to considerate our internal AML program and asking me to sign an adoption of the XXXX XXXX manual. I asked him why since we are required to have our internal AML program under Federal Law ( BSA ) and we are authorized delegate of 5 money transmiters not only XXXX XXXX ; so, our AML Program includes more directions to monitor more than one money transmiter. He did not want to provide a reasonable explanation. He just ignored our internal AML program and he was not willing the discuss the reasons. This was really disturbing, even when they trust in XXXX XXXX policies, that is not justifiable. However we did it and we sent the adoption letter Mr. XXXX requested. In addition he request us to fix some numbers on the page 4 of the application and we did it immediately. At the end of the call Mr. XXXX asked me if there is an special license in XXXX XXXX we have to obtain to cash checks. I explained him with detail that the XXXX XXXX " Uniform Money Service Act '' under the Article 3 just request that license for persons who are NOT authorized delegates of a Money Transmitters under the Article 2. Therefore, under the Article 3, paragraph A, section ( 4 ) of that Law, Money service Business have an exception to get an State License to Cash Checks as long they are Authorized Delegate of a Money Transmitter authorized under the Article 2, since they are cashing checks under the license of the Money Transmitters they represent in the State. In this cases, the City License or County License its good enough. Mr. XXXX asked me to send him copy of that Law and marking that section. Therefore, I sent copy of the Law and the specific page where that provision appear. In addition I sent our ID of each Money transmitter ( 5 in total [ XXXX by XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX ). in XXXX XXXX where we are authorized delegate, and we attached also our Cashing Service County License current and valid number # XXXX valid until XX/XX/XXXX showing we are in compliance. Everything was sent the same day on XX/XX/XXXX.
On XX/XX/XXXX since we got no more information requested and passing a week, I wrote another email asking about the status and when can we open the account. No response was received.
On XX/XX/XXXX, Mr. XXXX called me requesting again the XXXX XXXX State License to Cash Checks, and I explained him again with detail why we are not required to have that license and I told him that the information was sent to him a week ago as he requested, and did not want to look for that, and started in rude way asking to " re-send '' every thing again. Again in rude and desperate way he asked me to show him the page of the Law the paragraph and the explicit line explaining that. I did it again, he read it very clear and he was NOT able to to proof nothing against that provision for who are " authorized delegate of a license person under the Article 2 ''. In addition, I sent him a copy of the XXXX XXXX agreement for Money Transfers and Checks Cash under their license what is fully in compliance with the State Law, and Mr. XXXX did not have arguments against that. Also, Mr. XXXX was asking about how we cash checks and each time we refer him to our AML Program that includes the section Checks Cashed, Mr. XXXX got mad and rude. He did not wanted nothing about our Internal Policies nothing that implies going and read carefully to our AML Program. So, this was really hard to work with Mr. XXXX. He was so in rush that he did not want to get enough familiar with our internal proceedings. He had a rally bad attitude. Finally, despite of all the evidence he refused to approve to open a checking account unless we get the State License to Cash Checks.
On XX/XX/XXXX We requested him in writing thru email to answer in writing specifically what part of the State Law require us to get that State License since we met the requirements for the exception pursuant 58-32-301 A ( 4 ). Mr. XXXX never answered.
On XX/XX/XXXX Mr XXXX sent us a certified letter declining the process WITHOUT responding our specific questions and with AMBIGUITY asserting that we did not met their risk requirements.
SUMMARY : Wells Fargo did not proof we are not in compliance with BSA.
T h e r e f o r e, For potential MULTIPLE VIOLATIONS of : 1 ) BSA CFR 31 103.125 ( a ) ( b ) ( c ) ( d ) : " MSB 's shall develop a AML writing program '', with " internal controls [ ... ] [ Note : Wells Fargo will NOT force to any MSB to sign in adoption " exclusively '' just one of their money transmitters manual. Particularly if the MSB represent more than one money transmitter and the MSB own manual covers ALL the AML proceedings, the use of their own software for internal controls and Monitoring for ALL the transactions with all the money transmitters that represent and the checks cashed. Of course, we sign to comply with all the money transmitters AML programs individually ( each manual ) and we have the commitment to follow the compliance of each Money Transmiter we represent ; but we have a " superior internal AML program '' that cover all the companies in a global way in order to fully comply with the BSA. Wells Fargo do not have the legal authority to dismiss the internal AML program with all its " internal controls with sofwares '' to monitor " sends '' and " Checks Cashed '' that are ALL connected with its internal Global AML program.
2 ) NM Uniform Money Service Act 58-32-301 A ( 4 ) : " A person shall not engage in check cashing [ ... ] unless the person : ( 4 ) is an authorized delegate of a person licensed pursuant the Article 2 of the Uniform Money Service Act. '' [ Note : We are " Authorized Delegate '' of 5 Money Transmitters in XXXX XXXX, Vigo by XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX ( with specific agreement that allow us to cash checks under their license ), XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX. ] Once again, despite of the " check cashed '' system the Money Transmitter provide to their " authorized delegate '' process checks, the MSB have ALL the legal right to " record '' internally with its own software ( such as our software " XXXX '' ) all the checks cashed, checks images, history of the checks cashed per customer, Ofac verification, and multiple reports, to fully comply with the Federal Law such as the BSA, US Patriot Act, etc., and for the proper AML monitoring and -in many times- with " superior standards ''. Wells Fargo do not have the legal right to OBJECT to that ; and in addition if particularly the Money Transmitter under the license the Authorized Delegate is cashing checks, do not have any inconvenient to do it since the compliance for both parts result stronger and the risk management gets more reduced. Therefore, the objection of Wells Fargo to this provision of the State Law above mentioned it could be considered not only a potential violation but trying to go " above the law '' requiring more than the Law.
3 ) Fincen Advisory dated on April 26, 2005, that strongly provides in the page 1 paragraph 2 as follows : " [ ... ] the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network ( FinCEN ) and the Federal Banking Agencies1 issued a joint statement recognizing the importance of ensuring that money services businesses that comply with the law have reasonable access to banking services. The statement also confirmed that banking organizations should apply the Bank Secrecy Act requirements to money services businesses, as they do with all accountholders, on a risk-assessed basis '' ( Note : " the importance of ensuring MSB 's that comply with the law ( such as the BSA ) have REASONABLE ACCESS to banking services. ) ..
4 ) .- Juridic Cases holding : " No one is Above the Law '' : Note : Wells Fargo will not be " Above the Law ''. Wells Fargo shall recognize the exception of the Law for the Check Cashed State License for who are " Authorized Delegates '' of a person licensed under the Article 2 of the NM Uniform Money Service Act. No personal opinions or additional rules for this Law or different criteria will be accepted. 58-32-301 A ( 4 ). Otherwise, Wells Fargo would be acting " Above the Law ''. Our MSB fully meets with this Law, and only can be required for the City Permit which is in file current and valid. And in addition enforced with the XXXX Agreement to Cash Checks.
In accordance with the above : Hereby we respectfully request to the intervention of the FDIC and Fincen to Fix this illegal analysis and determination.

Despite my previous attempts to resolve this matter amicably, you have failed to take appropriate action and continue to retain inaccurate, unverifiable, and invalidated information in my consumer file. This letter serves as my final notice before initiating legal action to seek relief and monetary compensation in accordance with the FCRA Sections 1681n, 1681o, and 1692k. If the following items, which remain inaccurate and unverifiable, are not promptly removed, I will have no choice but to pursue litigation. This correspondence, along with previously submitted documentation, will be presented as evidence in the pending litigation and as part of a formal complaint to the Federal Trade Commission, should you choose not to comply with this settlement offer.
It is evident that you are in direct violation of the FCRA, as you have failed to provide the required original documentation from the original creditors to verify the accuracy of the reported information. Under FCRA Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), it is your obligation to furnish a consumer contract with my signature on it to establish the authenticity and validity of the reported accounts. Additionally, you have not provided the method of verification as mandated by FCRA Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). It is crucial to note that under FCRA Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ), you are legally obligated to " promptly delete all information which can not be verified. '' To ensure complete understanding, let me briefly summarize the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implications. The FCRA is a federal law that governs the collection and reporting of credit information about consumers. It establishes strict guidelines on how credit information is obtained, maintained, and shared among relevant parties, including consumers themselves. Moreover, it grants consumers the right to verify and dispute any inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable information present in their credit reports.
Given the gravity of these violations, I hereby demand the immediate deletion of the following items due to their inaccuracy, unverifiability, and invalidation. Failure to comply with this request will leave me no choice but to proceed with legal action : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX This account has never been paid late, and your reporting is entirely inaccurate. I demand an immediate update to this account and the removal of the inaccurate information.
XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX This account has never been paid late, and your reporting is entirely inaccurate. I demand an immediate update to this account and the removal of the inaccurate information.
XXXX Account Number : XX/XX/XXXX The inquiries related to this account have exceeded the statute of limitations and must be removed from my credit report.
Unauthorized inquiry without consent : XXXX Date of inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX I insist on the removal of this unauthorized inquiry from my credit report.
Unauthorized inquiry without consent : XXXX Date of inquiry : XX/XX/XXXX I insist on the removal of this unauthorized inquiry from my credit report.
XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX No late payments have been made on this account, and it is paid as agreed. Please rectify and update this inaccurate information on my credit report.
By disregarding the FCRA 's provisions, you have willfully and knowingly failed to comply with federal law. As such, you are subject to civil liabilities, including actual damages sustained by the consumer, punitive damages determined by the court, and the costs of the action, along with reasonable attorney 's fees, in the case of a successful enforcement action under this section.
Furthermore, I reiterate my request for the removal of all non-account holding inquiries and the provision of a detailed description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information, as outlined in FCRA Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). I explicitly do not consent to e-Oscar or any form of automated verification.
I remind you that you have 30 days to complete the necessary investigations, as stipulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Additionally, I expect you to provide a satisfactory response within this timeframe. Failure to do so may result in legal action being initiated, seeking {$5000.00} per violation for the following : Defamation Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud Violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Financial Injury Please be advised that depending on your response, I may choose to publicly disclose any issues with your company through an online press release, including documentation of the potential small claims action. Furthermore, copies of this complaint will be shared with the organizations listed below to raise awareness and seek their involvement in this matter : CC : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX, Assistant Director of Enforcement, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, 1700 G.

On XX/XX/XXXX I called capital one and asked what was going on. They asked if I could forward them the email stating the credit was permanent and I did so. I was told I would get a response within XXXX business days.
I do not get any reply. So I call them again on the XXXX of XXXX. They inform me on a recorded line that in fact they looked into it and I will not be charged the {$11000.00} and that my claim is closed and the credit is permanent and that should be the end of it.
On the XXXX of XXXX. {$11000.00} was deducted from my capital one checking account.
I call them again. And they tell me that there is nothing they can do. That a mistake was made and they gave no way of fixing it.
I feel as though they unlawfully deducted this money based on the fact that the credit was no longer temporary after they stated it was mine to keep in writing. | null | CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION | TX | 787XX | null | Consent provided | Web | 2022-04-30 | Closed with monetary relief | Yes | null | 5,522,848 |

I was unable to pay such a large monthly amount and submitted paperwork for income based repayment ; however I was still responsible for that first payment. I did not have the money to pay it so I opted to put my loan in forbearance until Nelnet processed the paperwork. The employee read the disclosure and it sounded like it said my interest would be added to my principle balance-I asked for clarification and was told that no-nothing on my account would change I just would n't have to make the payment so I agreed. The representative lied to me and the interest obviously was moved to my balance increasing my loan amount to about {$75000.00}. My recalculated payment ended up being $ XXXX/month. Each year I have to fill out a form to reassess my income based repayment amount ( many other loan companies have a form you fill out once, not annually ). While this paperwork was processing I once again ended up with a monthly payment of about {$800.00} -it 's conveniently higher now because I owe Nelnet more money because they lied to me-until my income based payment was reassessed. My new monthly payment is now {$200.00} a {$67.00} increase from last year which I can only assume is because I owe more money because my income has not increased from the last assessment and I still owe the {$800.00} payment. A representative once again tried to convince me to put my loan in forbearance, glossing over the fact it would add nearly {$10000.00} to my principle balance and when my loan is reassessed next year the payment would no doubt increase, not to mention the obvious-the amount I owe would go up to {$85000.00}. This representative was at least honest when I asked about my interest. I can not make this {$800.00} payment. There is no waiver of the payment and my only options are : pay money I do n't have, do n't make the payment and ruin my credit, or put my loan in forbearance and owe Nelnet even more money. There is no way to make a formal complaint at Nelnet. I feel like I was tricked into owing more money, representatives misinform and persuade customers into allowing their interest to capitalize, the annual paperwork only serves to create a month where customers are vulnerable to high payments and more likely to be forced to make a poor financial decision to protect themselves in the moment as well as their credit in the long term. Nelnet does not serve or care about their customers-they are only using them to continue to make money and increase their student debt. | null | Nelnet, Inc. | NE | 68106 | null | Consent provided | Web | 2016-06-29 | Closed with explanation | Yes | No | 1,992,144 |
2023-08-12 | Checking or savings account | Savings account | Closing an account | Company closed your account | I opened a saving account at Popular Direct to earn high interest. They closed my account after external transfer was complete from my XXXX XXXX XXXX account, they told me account is closed for unspecified security reasons but did not provide me specific details.
I called many times and sent emails and they said they do not have access to the reason for closing. I have over 800 credit score. They finally send me email that we closed the account due to information on the XXXX report. I reviewed my XXXX report and all i see they bank inquires for non credit account verification but no reason for a bank to close my account.
They are doing this to many customers so that they get short term funding for free and they close the accounts prior to an account is eligible to earn interest. Please see reviews at XXXX XXXX XXXX I had two account one with {$100.00} trial opening balance and other with XXXX. One opened in last XX/XX/2023 and other this week. In my Popular Account i see that they have refunded {$100.00} back to my XXXX XXXX XXXX account but in my XXXX XXXX XXXX account I do not see money coming in. XXXX has taken XXXX from my XXXX XXXX XXXX account despite they will close 2nd XXXX account.

2017-07-24 | Debt collection | Credit card debt | False statements or representation | Attempted to collect wrong amount | On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a dispute letter to Portfolio Recovery Associates regarding an account with XXXX XXXX who is listed as the original creditor. Within the letter I requested validation of this debt by providing me with the original application and/or contract from XXXX XXXX that outlined the terms of fees, interest, etc. so that I could confirm that the dollar amount stated as being owed was in fact assessed from the original creditor and not the collection agency who is currently attempting to collect. I also asked if the contract/application from the original creditor could not be provided that they provide me with a copy of any agreement the collection agency has with me verifying that I agreed to pay them the debt of record and/or the original creditor. In addition, I also asked for them to verify the date the debt was acquired and also if it was assigned or purchased and to which credit bureaus the debt was being reported. I received none of this information from Portfolio Recovery Associates and upon contacting them via telephone on XX/XX/XXXX I was told by a supervisor that they do not have a contract or application on file or record from the original creditor and that even if they did they do not send this type of information to consumers which is a complete falsehood. In addition, I was informed by the same supervisor that this account was not assigned to them by the original creditor of record and was actually purchased and acquired in XXXX of XXXX. In my original letter to the collection agency I alerted them that in the event of noncompliance, I 'd reserve my right to file charges and/or complaints with appropriate county, state and federal authorities for violations of the FDCPA/FCRA. I feel my rights are being violated and there are some unethical practices and procedures being utilized as it pertains to my particular situation and I am in need of additional assistance.
