Federal Violations Truth in Lending Act (TILA) 15 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.Under TILA, lenders are required to accurately disclose and report loan terms, balances, and payment histories.Your reporting of inflated balances in excess of the amount borrowed constitutes a clear violation of Regulation Z (12 C.F.R. Part 1026) and federal disclosure requirements.Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq.The **** mandates accurate credit reporting practices. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2(b), knowingly reporting false information is a violation punishable by civil penalties and potential criminal liability under federal law.Violations of the **** may result in imprisonment of up to two (2) years for willful misconduct.Unfair, Deceptive, or Abusive Acts or Practices (UDAAP) 12 U.S.C. 5531 Knowingly reporting false credit information constitutes an unfair and abusive act, violating UDAAP protections established ************ reported over the loan amount making it negative amortize on my credit report they reported December ******* $6721 which is impossible loan amount 6k They added 623 on top of loan amount taking interest 35% over state allowed interest This loan isnt compound interest its precomputed every time I call their call center in ****** they make up more lies they promise emails with monthly statement ***** promised email with amortization. But nothing except loan docs in Spanish were mailed two weeks ago. Oportun has many lawsuits against their lending practice. I demand my credit fixed and the loan to be adjusted properly. My son emailed them to take me off arbitration. And they accuse me of having a lawyer lol. Theyve violated interest and charge me interest over interest and report over the loan amount. So many illegal loan practicesBusiness response

I am rejecting this response because:I have repeatedly asked oportun to report correct amounts to the credit bureau they keep recomputing interest and not posting my payments correctly to the loan they dont amortize like their schedule states. They keep emailing me statements Ive asked in Spanish only in Spanish I have a recording from the 28th where they stated they primarily lend to Latinos Ive asked per fair lending government laws that they must send me documents that show my signature on loan documents to this day nothing! They continue with their predatory lending practices. Ive attached the different loan balances they show where the balances go up not down after 5 payments which 1 pymt of $250 was paid directly to principal. They have ruined my credit score by 50 Points because of their unethical lending . Im asking again for my loan docs in English with my signature and for correct loan balance to the credit bureaus Ive filed complaint with the **** in both states ca and Fl. Ask you can see they resound only in Spanish. And they report wrong loan balances its a law for monthly statements in English Regards Julie

On 9/23/2024 withdrew all funds I had put into my ******* account before canceling the account., I received 2 emails from both accounts I had in the app saying my withdrawals were confirmed I received 1 but did not receive the other. 10/26/2024 I received the noticed that they KNEW I did not get the other funds and needed to reach out to them. I did so immediately and was told I would get a check mailed to me as my account was closed. In November I reached out again to say I did not receive the check. They issued another check mid November and again told me 7-10 days it would be here. Fast forward to the week of Christmas again asking about the check and was told it was mailed out and showing it was almost there to give it a few more days. Which leads me to today I reached out yet again 01/09/2025 asking about the check and was told they have no answers as their check system was down at this point it has been 4 months of our entire account being withheld, and no true proof they are helping. I have put thousands of dollars into this company for savings purposes I feel fortunate that the account that wasnt deposited was just under $400.. however I cant imagine how much more serious this situation could have been I just want MY money backBusiness response

The oportun card that I have was taken over by a new bank named revel. For the past 2 months trying to make my payments online I have had an issue because they show a new account number. I have been waiting for the new card to arrive- it hasnt. I had to call earlier in the month to make a payment on the account because I can no longer access anything with my old account number on the app. I have a confirmation number for payment this month but one of the **** I spoke with said my account is past due. He also said my new revel card was activated. I told him that it wasnt me who activated the card, because I never got it and asked about transactions. He said I dont need to worry about the card being activated by someone else because he didnt see any new transactions being made. But my account was showing past due. I asked many times to speak with a supervisor or manager- I spoke to this *** twice and 2 other ****. I waited 3 hours trying to get a supervisor or manager on the phone to confirm details Of my account that I can no longer access because someone else has activated my card. All I want is to get a manager or supervisor on the phone to confirm why they show past due and cancel the card that was activated by someone else and that is still clearly in their possession that they can use at any time, and I will never know because I cant access my account ! at this point I want to just close the account so I longer have to deal with a company like this.Business response
