Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Subissue: Problem with personal statement of dispute
Consumer Complaint: Comenity Bank ( Victorias Secret ) has refused to remove the late marks on my credit. I had been told they were deferred due to XXXX and me not working full time hours due to XXXX i did defer them. With that being said, the last week or so that I have spoke with people about this issue I have heard 3 different stories. I was first told they could only defer them for 2 months, then i was told they could defer them for 3 months and lastly was told I could defer them for 12 months. Regardless of them not knowing what is even going on within their own company, every month I called in, just as I always have to make payments and was told it was still " deferred ''. Im going to relate this to my own life experiences. I help manage properties and during COVID we did have to allow the rent to be deferred. With that being said, I, myself, kept up with who had deferred rent and how long. That was my job, as it was Comenity Banks job to assure I paid my payments. With that being said, after the second or third month of deferred payments, if they were no longer deferred they should of let me know. Because each month i called in i only got " your payments are deferred '' I never received an email or letter. Now on to the next scenario. After i had paid my account in full in XXXX of XXXX, I was still being charged late fees til XXXX. When i confronted them they had no idea why i was even being charged those. So now i feel as if Comenity kept charging me for late fees or pentalizing me for things that was not even relevant. I can attach those to this email. All in all my experience with this has been unfair, from the beginning. I am not asking for a refund, I just simply want the late marks removed from my account because i feel as if i have been treated poorly from them and been overcharged in more ways than XXXX. If i had not paid off my Credit card and seen i was still being charged afterwards i would have never noticed the extra {$40.00} being charged to my account every month. Long story short. Months XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ' ( which i did make a payment in, ill attach that as well ) were all suppose to be deferred from my understanding. It was Comenities job to assure i was aware my deferment period was over, considering ive been told several different things in the last week about deferment and how long it was suppose to last, i do truly believe there is too many people unaware of the jobs they are doing there. Attached is the XXXX payment, as well as the XXXX payment which I was paid off, then you see i was still being charged even after

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Subissue: Account information incorrect
Consumer Complaint: This is in regards to comenity bank card for lane bryant. The account paid in full XXXX/XXXX/21, a late fee was removed so balance went from XXXX tXXXX XXXX which was paid, currently reporting late when i was ensured it wouldn't be and i shouldve waited for it in writing but was told since they confirmed it hadn't yet reported that I would be fine.I didn't argue about the fees late fees or ask more questions because I just wanted a quick resolution to the account. This account I thought was on auto pay and I didnnt realize there was a {$6.00} payment and late fees on top of late fees because of fees that were not fully assessed and were pending at time I made last payment. I spoke with several people when I was called regarding the delq balance and they waived a late fee, I paid the remaining balance in full and was told that it was being brought up to date before it was reportd so everything was fine. I recently got notice my score dropped significantly due to this being reported as having a balance of {$100.00} as of XXXX/XXXX/21 which is incorrect. I called Comenity to dispute it and was told that once this reports again it should correct itself and report correctly but Im currently trying to get approved for a mortgage for a larger home as Im expecting twins and need a larger home. I asked the manager I spoke to if they could look into the payments and the previous discussions I had regarding this account and was dismiss and told to wait for next reporting or contact the reporting agencies. XXXX XXXX and XXXX are showing delinquent with a balance of {$100.00} which is incorrect, XXXX is still showing no payments made late but an incorrect balance. Im requesting that someone please accurately report that this account is up to date with a XXXX balance and remove the XXXX XXXXay mark as I was assured that it would not appear if I was able to pay the entire balance on XXXX/XXXX/21 over the phone. The same day a fee was removed due to the discrepancy of being charged fees on top of fees AND my credit limit was increased. I dont think its fair or accurate to report that I was {$35.00} late when they removed {$35.00} from my account and instructed me that paying the remaining balance which were late fees that had not been posted to my account when I called to inquire would result in my continued stellar reporting of never being delinquent. I feel like I was mislead, given false information regarding reporting and the account is not accurate on any of the XXXX. I hope this can be resolved quickly. Thank you.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Subissue: Account status incorrect
Consumer Complaint: I paid off the balance in full for Comenity/XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2021 in the amount of {$2500.00}, which was the amount indicated to be paid to fully close out the account according to the payment site. Naturally, the account should close itself after the payment posted as no subsequent charges were made to the account. I was billed a residual finance charge a month later on XX/XX/2021 of {$5.00}, which I was unaware of as I knew I had no further obligation to this account. Once I realized that XXXXComenity was still sending statements, I called to find out what the charge was for and paid it immediately. This residual finance charge of {$5.00} reported as a 30 day late marker for XX/XX/2021, which is inaccurate as my entire pay history with this account has been on time. I never received any delinquent notice nor a phone call from their collections team to remedy. I initially called to review this with ComenityXXXX but XXXX refused to speak to me about the reporting of my account. I then submitted a dispute to the credit bureaus and ComenityXXXX XXXX XXXX negative reporting. But they have now put the inaccurate reporting back. I have again recently disputed and they have not resolved the reporting. It is disturbing that I have paid all charges due and interest that they required, they billed me more charges after the fact, and then report derogatory information for a {$5.00} fee that I was not even aware of. This is unfair treatment that I want resolved immediately. This {$5.00} fee has drastically negatively impacted my credit and my life.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Subissue: Was not notified of investigation status or results
Consumer Complaint: Dear Sir or Madam, 1. XXXX Account XXXX Please correct this inaccurate information on my credit report. I recently pulled my credit report from your XXXX and my attorneys and I had a chance to go over my credit report and in amazement, that you have decided to report me 30 days late on this account in XX/XX/XXXX as wells 60 days late on XX/XX/XXXX also 90 days late on XX/XX/XXXX lastly 120 days late on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately disputed this information with XXXX and the results of the investigation came back " verified ''. Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously " verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of " records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. ( 6 ) Failure to transmit the statement required under section 1637 ( b ) of this title to the last address of the obligor which has been disclosed to the creditor, unless that address was furnished less than twenty days before the end of the billing cycle for which the statement is required. ( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the XXXX. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts. ( b ) Reports by creditor on delinquent amounts in dispute ; notification of obligor of parties notified of delinquency If a creditor receives a further written notice from an obligor that an amount is still in dispute within the time allowed for payment under subsection ( a ) of this section, a creditor may not report to any third party that the amount of the obligor is delinquent because the obligor has failed to pay an amount which he has indicated under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, unless the creditor also reports that the amount is in dispute and, at the same time, notifies the obligor of the name and address of each party to whom the creditor is reporting information concerning the delinquency. ( c ) Reports by creditor of subsequent resolution of delinquent amounts A creditor shall report any subsequent resolution of any delinquencies reported pursuant to subsection ( b ) to the parties to whom such delinquencies were initially reported. 1666b. Timing of payments ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Because I take my credit very seriously, I contacted every name and account that was listed on the report. I was again very shocked by the multiple names, account numbers and figures. Included with this letter, is every letter written to those who have hampered my ability to obtain credit. I believe that any judge that looks over the report would agree that it is a violation of both the FCRA, CCPA and FACTA. The following accounts were listed on your report and I have demanded from them a full accounting and five years worth of records to see if their accounts were in violation of the FAIR CREDIT BILLING ACT ( FCBA ). We also demanded signed contracts, agreements or any legal paperwork that would tie us to the following accounts. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct an investigation on this account if I request it. I DEMAND to see all 100 % verifiable proof that I was indeed Verifiably late on these accounts and the creditor fulfilled its obligations under ( FCBA 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) ), As I was never notified of a billing delinquency on my accounts, which the creditor must do under section ( FCBA1666 ( b ) ( 6 ). I DEMAND to see proof that I was mailed my statement to the correct address notifying me of both payment due date and delinquency of payment on the account. If you can not provide 100 % Verifiable proof and proper documentation that the CREDITOR fulfilled its obligations under the ( FCBA ) and ( FCRA ), I therefore demand these late payments be removed from my account or I will be forced to be in contact with the Attorney General of my State and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I therefore am submitting my written request to you to conduct an investigation. Per the FCRA, you have 30 days to conduct this investigation and respond to my request. If you do not respond within this time period, per the FCRA, you must remove this negative information. Thank you for your time, XXXX XXXX SS # : XXXX Date of Birth : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX
