Capital One Credit card department,
I have a credit card account with Capital One. My payments are due by the - of the month and typically Capital One will report account information to the credit bureaus a few days after the payment is due each month. This is what occurred this month on approximately -/-/2015, when my account was updated to reflect the payments made and my balance reflected $130.00. I then made another payment which posted on -/-/2015. Capital One did not update my payment history after that payment. However, there was an issue with my bank and the payment was returned ( and subsequently resubmitted after the error was corrected ). I checked my credit report today and Capital One has now updated my - report to reflect the balance of the returned payment even though they had already updated the reporting of the account at the beginning of the month to reflect my payments at that time which cleared with no problem. Consequently, this update caused a nearly - point drop in my credit score. It is very clear that Capital One is electing to report the account at various times with the intent of penalizing me. They did n't choose to
anyway ). This is not the - time they have reported multiple times in a month. The account should be reported after the payment is due and not report again until the following month 's payment is due, which is accurate information. Had I not resolved the issue with the returned payment by my next billing cycle, then Capital One would have every reason to report it in this manner, however, they are opting to do so now before the billing cycle is complete in an effort to intentionally damage my credit rating and to penalize me. I am applying for a mortgage at this time and now have been denied credit due to this.
