Issue: Other features, terms, or problems

Subissue: Other problem

Consumer Complaint: In XXXX, I made two purchase at XXXX, after presenting my personal banking debit card. Today, I received an invoice from a XXXX credit card that I never applied for. I looked at my debit card statement and only one of the purchases I made was on the statement. The store clerk illegally enrolled me in the credit card program, claiming to enroll me in their awards program. I called the XXXX Credit card company today and reported the problem- they failed to connect me to a manger that could resolve the issue. I do not own major credit cards or store credit cards for a reason, so this action is particularly egregious. It seems that XXXX is paying their employees incentives to enroll customers in their programs and those incentives are causing employees to illegally enroll customers in these programs, without customer consent.

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: The existence of a derogatory rating on my account is causing me significant concern. I am deeply worried about its potential impact on my credit. It has already resulted in the denial of a recent loan application and an increase in the interest rates on my existing credit accounts. I want to emphasize the severe financial and emotional distress that this negative rating has caused me and will continue to cause until it is resolved.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: The following corporations XXXX XXXX, Comenity Bank XXXX, and XXXX XXXX are reporting income to the top three credit reporting agencies, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. Income is not part of any XXXX, XXXX, or XXXX credit reports. This needs to stop immediately. According to XXXXXXXX XXXX own web site It states ( see provided upload ) " Your credit history does not include income information. And according to the IRS web site publication 525 and 4681 ( see provided uploads ) The IRS clearly makes it known that 1099c is to be considered income to be reported on tax returns as such. And as such income is not and can not be a debt therefore income can not be reported to the credit reporting agencies. I have uploaded the proof of income 1099C along with the IRS publications and as well as XXXX confirming that income can not and does not get reported to the credit reporting agencies. XXXX XXXX, Comenity Bank XXXX, and XXXX XXXX must remove, delete all income from being reported to my credit reports In summary it is abundantly clear to all parties, that the IRS considers 1099C cancelled debt to be reported as income and accordingly the credit reporting agencies as well as XXXX XXXX, Comenity Bank XXXX, and XXXX XXXX themselves should not be reporting income.. See below more clarification regarding the fact that income can not be reported to the credit reporting agencies, ie 1099c being income to be reported on tax returns Can income be reported on credit report? Income isn't even on your credit reports so it can not be considered in credit scores because credit scores only consider what's on your credit reports, XXXX explains. In fact, no wealth metrics are factored into your credit scores. What information Can not be included in a credit report? For example, a credit provider might ask you for information about your income when you make an application for credit. The credit provider can not give information about your income to a XXXX to be included in your consumer credit report
