Issue: Improper use of your report

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

Consumer Complaint: To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute the following information in my file. I recently received a copy of my credit report, and I notice there is an unauthorized credit inquiry made by the company listed above. To my knowledge, I have not signed any documents authorizing the company in question to view my credit report. The listed inquiry was without authorization, and for no legitimate business purposes. As such, it is a very serious error in reporting. I never authorized such action, and this constitutes a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act {$600.00} as well as a violation of my rights to privacy. I am requesting your credit bureau to initiate an investigation and to determine responsible parties in this unauthorized credit inquiry. As part of your investigation, please send the names, business addresses, and phone numbers of those who made unauthorized credit inquiries so I may contact them directly. In addition, I respectfully request a copy of any documents authorizing credit inquiry, and signed on my behalf, so that I may verify its validity. If you find that I was not the one who authorized this inquiry, I ask that it be removed immediately from my credit file. Please be so kind as to forward me documentation that you have had the unauthorized inquiry removed. If you find that I am in error, then please send me proof of this. Finally, I am requesting an updated copy of my credit report, which should be sent to the address listed above. According to the provisions of 612 ( 15 USC 1681j ), there should be no charge for this report.

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: I opened an secured credit card account XX/XX/2021 with Navy Federal credit union for the total amount of XXXX funded with cash to build credit and I was told after XXXX months that I would be consider for a unsecured account in XXXX months after a review with the bank. I was also told if I was approved that they would match whatever had had in my savings account and add that to my secured credit card, so with that in mind I decided to put an additional XXXX on to my credit card to increase the amount to XXXX on XXXX XXXX I was approve for the increase and there was no issues. I noticed about a month later that my savings account was in the negative of {$2900.00} but me not having experienced with credit cards I assumed that it was an error on the bank end and went on with my life. Navy Federal never contacted me, Never sent an overdraft letter in regards to my account being overdraft. I didn't take the negative amount seriously until I called in asking information on how I can increase my chances of getting approve for an unsecured credit care three months after I signed up for the card and that's when the representative told me that I was reponsible for the negative account and wouldn't be elgible for the unsecured credit card until it was paid. I told her that that couldn't be accurate because the {$3000.00} was made and if it wasn't how why did Navy federal allow me to utilize the XXXX and charge me interest on the money for several months if the account was not in good standing or if they never received the initial required payment for the card to be issued. I got the run around, I got I don't know, I got well when we went in to take the funds out of the checking/savings account the XXXX was there so that's why your account is in the negative, so I said well it must have been a computer error or the payment was actually applied to the account through the the system by ach transfer allowing the XXXX limit increase and she said no we never received the payment. I contact serveral associates including branch managers and also requested an investigations on where my XXXX XXXX dollars went if they didn't get the payment and all I got was a packet of bank states for a year but nothing showing that XXXX XXXX dollars was not applied to the credit card. I am writing this complaint because I get at least three calls a week from navy federal in regards to this credit card and every time I tell them why I am not paying they still cant resolved the issues and I am still responsible for interest rates, late payment ect. I want this issues solved in a fair manner and I want all my money back plus interest.
