I paid for Junes rent with Flex Pay and it was never submitted to my complex by the first even though they are saying it has. Contacted multiple times for a refund and confirmation with the complex and they refuse to acknowledge that my rent was never sent for the month and insist it was when I checked the computer with the manager at my complex and it's not there. Essentially this company just ate my rent and is not giving it back.Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference tocomplaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.
Sincerely,
******* *******see why the full amount wasnt returned to me. I was told it was because of the interest, based on the length of a loan I didnt need and one I had cancelled on the same day that I applied for it. So, yes I definitely have buyers remorse especially because I received nothing but, a headache and lost of funds for a service I did not use or need. They legit stole money from me. The process was prolonged because of them, not me. I should have been refunded the complete amount they took from me.Business Response

From June 28th to July 8th I have been in contact with **** pay customer service and I have been trying to receive a refund from them because my rent never got paid but they still charged my account and any payments that were made using Flex Pay kept getting rejected by my apartments due to "accounts being frozen". In this time I have provided all the info that they have requested to show that not only were the payments rejected but that I also never received my refund for $853.39 and that I still owe rent. Also, since my rent never got paid it is currently late, I've been receiving late fees and I have been given a 3 days to vacate notice or pay in full by the 11th or I will receive an eviction notice. I was in contact with the eviction risk specialist team then out of nowhere they stopped responding to me even though I haven't received my refund and I also am still at risk for eviction. At this point they have stolen my money. I have disputed the charge with my bank but that will take way too long to get resolved so I've turned to here in hopes that this will get their attention and get it taken care of. I have included the support ticket numbers to easily locate this issue.Business Response

I honestly dont get why UPLIFTINC is reporting this debt under my name because I dont owe them anything. I never signed anything with them, and when I asked for a copy of the original application, they didnt even bother to provide it. Its frustrating because this is hurting my credit for no reason, and its just not fair. How can they just put something on my report without any proof?Account No: ******** Amount Disputed: $0Business Response

I am submitting this formal complaint regarding an account reported by ********, account number ending in 3456, with a listed open date of 02/01/2021 and a balance of $847.00. This account is being reported as derogatory and has significantly impacted my creditworthiness, despite being both inaccurate and unverifiable. I have no recollection or documentation of ever opening or authorizing an account with ********, and all of my attempts to resolve this directly with both the credit reporting agencies and ******** have been unsuccessful.Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681i(a)(1)(A), I have the right to dispute any information I believe is inaccurate. Once a dispute is submitted, credit bureaus are legally obligated to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation within 30 days. Furthermore, 15 U.S.C. 1681i(a)(5)(A) mandates that if the disputed information cannot be verified, it must be removed from the consumers credit file.Despite my repeated efforts to request original, signed account documentation, payment histories, or any form of credible verification, none has been provided. Instead, I have only received generic responses that fail to meet the legal standard of proof required to continue reporting this account. This disregard for transparency is not only negligentit is a violation of federal law.This unresolved issue has caused me tangible harm: Ive faced loan denials, higher interest rates, and unnecessary stress while trying to clear my credit record of information that shouldnt be there in the first place. If ******** is unable to provide full, legally valid proof that this $847.00 account is both accurate and lawfully attributed to me, I am demanding its immediate removal from my credit reports. I will escalate this to the ************************************ (****), the ************************ (***), and seek legal remedies under 15 U.S.C. 1681n if necessary.Business Response
