Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Consumer Complaint: I am composing this letter regarding the account number XXXX that your company is presently reporting to both XXXX and XXXX XXXX my name. The account carries a derogatory rating, which deeply concerns me. I am extremely worried about the impact this negative rating could have on my credit standing, particularly since I was recently denied a loan and my existing credit accounts have experienced an increase in interest rates. I want to emphasize that this unfavorable rating has caused significant financial distress for me, and I anticipate that it will continue to inflict both financial and emotional hardship until a resolution is reached.

Consumer Complaint: There has been fraud involved in the opening of an account that I'm said to be liable for and Comenity Capital Bank has been harassing me regarding this issue. I have received 2 statements from Comenity Capital Bank with due dates of XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I received the first statement and did not believe that I need to pay the statement as claimed, so reached out to Comenity Capital Bank in writing. On XX/XX/XXXX, I requested a validation of debt, per the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692 ( G ) Section 809 ( B ). In that letter, which is attached to this complaint, I stated " In addition, I kindly request that your agency refrains from making any phone calls to my personal line. Excessive or automated calls made to myself or third parties will be considered harassment and will result in legal action being taken against your agency. '' Comenity Capital Bank received my letter on XX/XX/XXXX, as confirmed by the certified mail tracking in the attached document. From XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, Comenity Capital Bank has called me 33 times from 16 different numbers, and texted me 5 times. This has been absolutely distressing, as I can not even block unwanted calls given the sheer number of different lines they have used to call me. I've had numerous losses due to work on my phone being interrupted from unwelcome phone calls as well.

Consumer Complaint: I responded to XXXX/ComenityBank/Bread Financials ' offer in XXXX to open a new XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and receive a statement credit of {$100.00} after spending {$1000.00} in 90 days. I fulfilled my obligation in XXXX and was told it would take 1 to 2 billing cycles to post. When I didn't receive the credit, I contacted the bank in XXXX wand was told it took 1 to 2 billing cycles after the 90 days was up, not 1 to 2 billing cycles after meeting the requirement but was assured the credit would be on XXXX statement. It wasn't. I spent over an hour on the phone with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and he assured me he was passing it up to the appropriate people and the credit would appear on my XXXX statement. It did not. I called again XXXX and after a great deal of time and several transfers, talked XXXX, SR acct specialist who assured me her manager would have it taken care of by XXXX and if there were any issues someone would call me before that. It was not taken care of & no one called so I wasted another hour today getting as far up the chain as XXXX a SR account Supervisor who spoke to her manager, supposedly the highest level they have, who said there was nothing they could do to issue the overdue credit, or reimburse for interest lost or time wasted. The only thing she was able to do was file a dispute which still did not absolve me from paying the {$100.00} balance I don't owe and may take NINETY days to resolve.

Issue: Problem when making payments
Subissue: Problem during payment process
Consumer Complaint: Hello there, I opened a XXXX card XX/XX/22. I proceeded to use the card and received my first statement via mail. I called the number on the back of the statement which is Comenity capital bank and made the payment over the phone ( this phone call should be recorded in their system ). I then received a phone call regarding the payment being late which i let them know it was already paid, and they removed the late charges during the phone call and said they would look into it. I then received another notice in the mail with a higher amount for a late fee. I checked my account and noticed i did not see a charge during the time period that i made the payment to Comenity bank. I gave them another call and explained that i attempted the payment and they mentioned there must of been a glitch or hiccup in their system. They mentioned they would have the late fees removed and i proceeded to make the payment again online with someone, during this same phone call i asked for the card to be cancelled as i did not want these issues to arise in the future. This issue falls on XXXX and their payment system. After many phones calls these late fees and a closed credit card has drastically impacted my credit. I urge that this issue please be looked at and removed as they stated this many times in the above phone calls that their system glitched during payment and all late fees would be removed.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Subissue: Account information incorrect
Consumer Complaint: I am writing to bring to your attention a concerning issue I have encountered with Comenity Bank regarding the re-aging of my account, which I believe to be in violation of consumer protection laws. In XX/XX/XXXX, I obtained a copy of my credit report. According to that report, the Date of First Delinquency ( DOFD ) for my account with Comenity Bank was listed as XX/XX/XXXX. However, upon reviewing my most recent credit report from XX/XX/XXXX, I discovered that the DOFD had been inexplicably changed to XX/XX/XXXX. This sudden alteration of the DOFD by Comenity Bank raises serious concerns about the accuracy and integrity of my credit report, as well as potential violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and other applicable consumer protection laws. Re-aging an account, which involves changing the reported date of delinquency to extend the time period for which negative information remains on a credit report, is widely recognized as an unfair and deceptive practice. I wish to emphasize that I have not engaged in any activity or made any agreement with Comenity Bank that would justify a change in the DOFD on my account. The XX/XX/XXXX credit report accurately reflected the original delinquency date of XX/XX/XXXX, and there have been no new incidents of delinquency or default since that time. I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau thoroughly investigate this matter and take appropriate action against Comenity Bank if it is determined that they have indeed engaged in illegal re-aging practices. Additionally, I would appreciate your guidance on the steps I can take to rectify this issue and ensure that my credit report reflects accurate and lawful information.

Consumer Complaint: I mailed 3 letters on two closed accounts with Comenity Bank. One account for XXXX and one for Ann Taylor. Letters were dated XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. All letters went unanswered from Community Bank and the credit reporting agency XXXX. Comenity Bank XXXXXXXX is a closed account showing the last payment XX/XX/XXXX. It has been 11 years and according to FCRA accounts should not report longer than 7-10 years. FCRA also states any items disputed must be answered within 30 days or be removed and it has been over 90 days since my first letter with no response. How was this dispute validated if no response was given- a direct violation of FCRA. Comenity Bank /Ann Taylor is a closed account showing the last payment XX/XX/XXXX. It has been 8 years and according to FCRA accounts should not report longer than 7. FCRA also states any items disputed must be answered within 30 days or be removed and it has been over 90 days since my first letter with no response. How was this dispute validated if no response was given- a direct violation of FCRA.
