Issue: Improper use of your report

Subissue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Consumer Complaint: XXXX has informed me on two occasions that Comenity Capital BankXXXX has performed hard inquiries on my credit report. I have not applied for any new credit with Comenity Capital Bank. The first hard inquiry occurred on XX/XX/XXXX and the second occurred on XX/XX/XXXX. My credit score has dropped XXXX points as a result of these excessive hard inquiries. I filed a dispute with XXXX after both incidents. The results were the same for both : " INQUIRIES ARE A FACTUAL RECORD OF FILE ACCESS AND WILL REMAIN ON THE XXXX CREDIT FILE TWO YEARS FROM THE REPORTED DATE OF THE INQUIRY. '' I contacted XXXX to inquire how can these inquiries be factual since I never requested credit. Their explanation suggests that they take the creditor/companies word that the inquiries are factual. They suggested that I contact Comenity Capital Bank, which they referred to as XXXX, to ask them to send XXXX an electronic request to remove both inquiries. After trying to reach Comenity Capital Bank by phone unsuccessfully, I called XXXX back to get a better understanding of the dispute process. Once they finally admitted that their dispute process was essentially in favor of the creditor, XXXX suggested that I go to Identitytheft.gov to generate a letter of appeal and to fax the letter along with 2 pieces of ID to them in order to remove the inquiries from my credit report.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Information is missing that should be on the report

Consumer Complaint: I have three accounts with Comenity ( Bread Financial ) that have not been accurately reported since XXXX of 2022. I have disputed this information with the credit bureaus and have yet to receive a response. It is showing I still have balances on these accounts impacting my score negatively. Today I have attempted to send a message and I keep getting an error saying there was a " glitch '' that my message couldn't be sent. One of the accounts has been closed since XX/XX/XXXX and they have not updated my report to reflect this either. Comenity also refuses to answer there phone lines it seems as I have waited hours multiple times to have this resolved.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement

Subissue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I was taken to a website that I thought was for a breathing machine I just received. It ended up being a scam and charged my credit card XXXX and XXXX. These charges were pending for 7 days and when I called to let the credit card company know they told me I needed to wait until these amounts actually got charged to my account. They did charge to my account so I called the bank XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX a.m. and was on hold for about XXXX mins and I was speaking to someone outside of the USA. They transferred me to the USA and I waited on hold for another 30 minutes and spoke to a woman that said I would need to speak to customer care to dispute a charge. She transferred me and I was on hold for 2 hours. I hung up very frustrated. What kind of a corporation has their customers wait that long? Last night, XX/XX/XXXX while I was sleeping they left a message about some fraudulent activity on my account. I called XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX in the morning and got an animated voice stating that I was trying to make a purchase for XXXX at a computer store. It said to press 3 if this wasn't you and I did. It proceeded to transfer me and I waited about 15 minutes on hold and actually got the same person I spoke to in the morning. She said if I needed to make a dispute and cancel my card I would need to speak to customer care and proceeded to transfer me at XXXX and I was on hold for over an hour. I want to cancel this card!!!! I want my dispute completed, but most importantly I want this card canceled, please!!!! The credit card is BJ 's Mastercard through XXXXXXXX XXXX which I think is held through XXXX XXXX?

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement

Subissue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Consumer Complaint: My XXXX XXXX cards were transferred from XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX to Comenity on XX/XX/2022 through Bread XXXX On XX/XX/2022 there is a {$19.00} charge for Bread XXXX which I can only assume is an activation fee which I did not agree to nor authorize. I could not access my account on their website until XX/XX/2022 which is when I noticed the charge. When calling the company on XX/XX/2022, I was told that they could not tell me what the charge was for. I then requested that my 2 cards be cancelled and that my account be closed. The cards are still active and my account is still open.
