Issue: Fees or interest

Subissue: Problem with fees

Consumer Complaint: I was unaware when XXXX was transferred to comenity bank due to a bankruptcy that happened. The issue is I made a payment in XX/XX/2022 for a total of {$500.00} to pay off the account. Thinking that I paid the debt off from XXXX, comenity bank put interest that accrued on the account for {$4.00} plus a late fee that they apparently do not know how to explain to me or what amount my late fee is going to be. Comenity stated that they do now know what type of interest or late fee is going to be compounded or appear on the account. I find this absurd since they picked up my debt from XXXX. It seems as though they want to keep me in debt with their company. They are doing this with malicious intent. I did not receive any letters stating that XXXX was going through a bankruptcy and commenity bank was going to pick up their accounts. Another issue is that when I logged into my account with XXXX, it would automatically log into my account. Now that comenity bank has my accocunt they do not know how I can login. Since my account was paperless I do not have access to my account numbers.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Information belongs to someone else

Consumer Complaint: Despite sending FTC reports, police reports, notarized documents and filing disputes, and then hiring a credit repair company, all three credit bureaus and several creditors are still reporting fraudulent information and have not removed the items. Please see attached supporting documents that explain the situation, and the accounts in dispute. Complaints are being filed against both the bureaus and the creditors. This has been going on for years and it is extremely damaging to my credit and is costing me money to fight it. I want the items removed immediately. FTC and police reports attached.

Issue: Trouble using your card

Subissue: Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a letter by Comenity Capital Bank that my limit was decreased. I have been a loyal customer to this card for over four years. They have done this to me twice. I have been good with my payments and haven't missed one in years. I pay more than the minimum limit and again they have done this to me twice. My score is low due to my wife being sick and our limits going up on my cards. However these people lowered my limit which means they are basically kicking me when I am down. I called today and they give me XXXX number... basically " shooing '' me away. I have not been neglectful to this bill and I have been on time with my payments. I just want to be treated fairly and this is the only card that has done this to me.

Issue: Written notification about debt

Subissue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Consumer Complaint: Comenity Bank has failed to mark negative tradelines that they are reporting to all three credit bureaus as " Disputed '' within 31 days of them receiving my formal disputes regarding their inaccurate reporting on my credit reports via certified mail. I have receipts with tracking numbers proving that they received my certified mail enclosing my disputes. As well as copies of my credit reports, that shows they did not mark the accounts as disputed. They have failed to do what is prescribed by law. I also have credit monitoring in place that alerts me to comments, changes, etc. If Comenity Bank does not remove the items being negatively reported under my social security number I will use all legal remedies afforded to me per FCRA & FDCPA. FDCPA section 807 ( 8 ) and FCRA section 623 ( a ) ( 3 ) requires that ANY TIME a consumer contacts an entity questioning a line item that they placed on their credit report, they are required to contact the credit bureaus on the consumer 's behalf, and add a sentence to their credit report WITHIN 30 CALENDAR DAYS that says the consumer has disputed the negative item in question. In my case, Comenity Bank has failed to follow the law spelled out above, they are currently reporting two negative tradelines to all three credit bureaus under my social security number, and they did not follow the steps prescribed by law.
