      Bank of Missouri / Milestone is listed on my credit report as a charge off. As per our agreement I paid off the full amount of $728 with the understanding that the account would be removed from my reports. My account is paid in full as agreed and BOM / Milestone is still listed on all 3 credit bureaus.

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because: This is an obvious attempt to stall and prolong the issue. A "consent" form they claim will take 5 - 7 days which then will naturally require my signature and another 5 - 7 days for return mail and then an investigation which takes X number of days or my signature and form will never be received in which another 5 - 7 days will be added to the process. This company was paid in full and is now reporting my account with incorrect information to the credit bureaus which is a violation of the FCRA. This is not a game.







      Sincerely,

      Fortiva Credit Card, a product of said company cancelled my card after I was unable to pay during a bout with Covid. This along with an on the job injury left me with virtually no paycheck for about 6 weeks. I received no notice of the cancellation, and instead of having sympathy the agents I spoke with told me that it was in the contract and there was nothing to be done. Although the account is shut down, they continue to charge monthly/annual fees and interest as if it were a revolving account. When I read the contract it was vague and ambiguous. They are completely unwilling to work with their customers and it seems that their one goal in life is to keep people indebted to them. In trying to fix my credit with a card like this they are going to put me in a worse place than I was prior. All because I am a nurse and a patient left me injured, then ill.

      I requested my Total Visa account be closed 9/27/2022 via phone. I was told it would be closed in 3-5 days. It is still
      open. I have called twice, once last week and once this week to find out why my account is still open. I was told “the back office is backed up” and they cannot tell me when my account will be closed. I also emailed in and received no response and I filled out the contact form on their website and also received no response.

      I made a payment to Bank of Missouri on 9/28/2022 in the amount of $100. While my credit limit has not been reached I have no available credit even though my made payment has already cleared. They are refusing to give me access to my available credit and refuse to provide any legitimate information as to why. I have spoken with manager by the name of ** who stated there is no timeline provided for posting of payments. After explaining the payment was cleared over a week ago, I was told no one knows when I will have access to my funds. If they can’t provide me my funds I want my payment returned. I have attached proof of payment from both my bank account as well as the account in question.

      I am filing this formal complaint as a precursor to litigation that could be filed if this isnt rectified in a timely manner via the recommendation of my attorney who advised me to give this company a good faith chance to do whats right. I have NEVER had an account with this **********************, I do not know who they are or what products they have other than looking them up when viewing my credit reports, because for some reason theyre on my reports? And I saw they have lines of credit I suppose? *** dealt with numerous fraudulent accounts on my reports which I have gotten MOST of them removed, and I expect this one to be no different. You have no forms or agreements with MY SIGNATURE on them stating I opened any account with you all. I am demanding you all delete your erroneous trade line off of my credit reports (Transunion, Experian, Equifax) IMMEDIATELY AND PERMANENTLY or face the legal reprucusions of your actions. Litigation is being withheld for the sole purpose of giving you all this final chance to rectify this situation.

      I am rejecting this response because: I am providing the identity theft affidavit to further prove I never opened this account. I didnt even know who this company was until I started reviewing my credit history more closely and stumbled across this fraudulent account. It needs to be retracted  and deleted PERMANENTLY AND IMMEDIATELY from all my credit reports, (Transunion, Experian, Equifax) or legal action will be taken.

      Complaint: 18038578

      I am rejecting this response because:

      This company has MANY complaints dealing with fraudulent activities as well as fraudulent accounts being opened with them. This is clearly another case of that. I just received their letter stating that they didnt find any evidence of fraud, which is funny because I highly doubt they ever looked. In their letter which Im providing a copy of here, states they want me to send them my SSN Card, my Identification Card (Drivers License), and evidence of proof of address for **** of 2019. Well, ask this question. If I am disputing a fraudulent account with this **********************, WHY WOULD I SEND THEM PHOTOS OF ALL MY IDENTIFYING INFORMATION???? This is exactly what Im talking about. This company is very shady. IVE NEVER BEEN ASKED FOR THOSE DOCUMENTS BY A COMPANY, EVER!!!!!

      But I will do something though. I will provide my proof of address to these people via a pay stub from my employer in **** of 2019, which would you like to know where that place of employment was??? IN *********!!!!!! WANT TO KNOW MY ADDRESS DURING THAT TIME???? In **********, **!!!!!!!! ( You can view the full address in the image of my paystub I will provide.! This should be proof enough that this account was opened fraudulently as I wasnt even LIVING IN ****** AND WAS WORKING AND LIVING IN *********!!!!! 

      I have NEVER heard of this company, nor its affiliate *** Acquisition LLC, who both are reporting fraudulent and negative activity on my credit reports (Transunion , Equifax, Experian) to which their negative trade lines need to be removed. 

      This company also says I never tried contacting them. They are lying. Ive called multiple numbers I could find and got no answer or they werent in service. This company wont respond to email or mail correspondence which once again shows they are a shady business, involved in shady dealings. Just read their other complaints on BBB. Everyone has an eerie similarity to my situation with them. 

      If these fraudulent trade lines arent deleted from my credit reports IMMEDIATELY AND PERMANENTLY, you all will be sued to the fullest EXTENT OF THE *** ALLOWED! My attorney is on standby ready to file said litigation. Make this easier on yourself and just remove the fraudulent trade lines.

      10/10/2022: Mediator sent an update to the consumer. [CR] Just updating that, NO the complaint has not been resolved. The company claimed I indeed opened this fraudulent account, but told me if I wanted to prove it wasnt my account, that I should send them a copy of my Social Security Card, my license, and proof of residence. And then they would do an investigation. But in the same letter they say theyve done an investigation already. This is a very sketchy company to say the least, But I can assure I am denying their response, and will provide my actual lease showing I was living in ********* during this time they say I opened and used this fraudulent account.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
