Issue: Improper use of your report

Subissue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Consumer Complaint: According to my most recent credit report, your company is currently reporting to the credit bureaus that I applied for credit with your organization. I did not grant you authorization to review my credit report. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that a creditor be able to verify the written authorization of the consumer giving the creditor permission to review their credit. If you can provide a copy of a credit application authorizing the disclosure of my credit files with my signature, I will accept the inquiry. If a signed authorization can not be found please remove the inquiry from the main credit bureaus. The presence of this inquiry is adversely affecting my credit report and is impeding my ability to obtain necessary credit. Time is of the essence so I would greatly appreciate a response from you within XXXXhirty ( 30 ) days.

Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease

Subissue: Unable to receive car title or other problem after the loan is paid off

Consumer Complaint: On or around XX/XX/2022 I received a response from Chrysler Capital XXXX Santander Consumer USA , Inc with threats of " repossession '' which would be a crime of embezzlement Definition : Fraudulent taking of personal property by someone to whom it was entrusted. Most often associated with the misappropriation of money. Embezzlement can occur regardless of whether the defendant keeps the personal property or transfers it to a third party. Historically, embezzlement became a crime because thefts were occurring in which the elements of larceny could not be met because the thief had the right to possess the funds ; thus, the prosecution could not prove the element of a trespassory taking. Meanwhile, proving embezzlement only requires showing either that the employee had possession of the goods or funds because of the employees position or that the employee had the authority to exercise substantial control over the goods or funds. Courts determine the question of substantial control by considering the employees job title, job description, and the practices of that particular company. Some states also have fraudulent conversion statutes, which provide for the criminalization of actions that border between larceny and embezzlement. The government can also charge individuals with attempted embezzlement. Methods of embezzlement differ. Some embezzlers skim off the top so that they continually acquire a small amount over a particular time interval. This method reduces the likelihood of being caught. On the other hand, some embezzlers steal a very large amount of the goods or funds on a single instance and then disappear. Sometimes company managers under-report income to their supervisors and keep the difference. The Internal Revenue Service requires that embezzlers include embezzled funds in their yearly income taxes. Upon returning the funds or paying restitution, the embezzler becomes eligible for a tax deduction. Failure to report embezzled funds as gross income can result in the bringing of tax evasion charges. Companies have created safeguards to protect against embezzlement. For example, they invented cash registers to ensure that gross sales equal the deposit at the end of a given day. Companies also divide duties between levels of employees as a form of oversight. Embezzlement in the face of split duties adds the difficult requirement of forming a collusive arrangement and likely requires split proceeds, lowering the payoff for each member of the arrangement. See White-collar crime.

Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action

Subissue: Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2022 I disputed information reported by Santander because it was inaccurate and the three Credit bureaus had different dates for payments and different dates closed and incomplete information, and missing information. I was asked to provide additional information by the credit bureaus so I contacted Santander and asked if they could email me the compy of whatever agreement that was signed stating I owed them. I also, asked the credit bureaus for debt validate. After contacting Santander to request this information. The representative I spoke to got angry and said he would not give me the information. Santander then reported this incorrect information XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX and XXXX of 2022 and opened the closed account reported that a payment was made when a payment was never made because this account had been charged off for 6+ years. This caused my credit score to drop significantly. I would like Santander removed from all 3 of the credit bureaus due to all of the information being different and inaccurate with each bureau. The disputes have been closed the the information is still inaccurate.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Problem with fees charged

Consumer Complaint: I have filed complaint previously and the complain number is XXXX. The company responded without giving any explanation why my last month XX/XX/2022 interest was higher and why they charged me over {$170.00} extra, they never give explanation and all what they provided is just a copy of my contract with them without explaining anything, so when I called them, their representative said because I didnt pay XXXX bill which is incorrect because I have made my payment for XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, so I have emailed them the bank statements, payment confirmation number that shows that I paid, and still didnt get back to me yet. They reported that I late to pay my bill to the credit Bureaus and that cause a damage to my credit reports and it also reduced my credit score and showing an increase in my car loan amount due to their unnecessary action since I already paid before my due date.
