BACKGROUND INFO: Our records indicate Ms. [redacted]s placed her order on our website on December 13, 2016 for a 23 piece Hair Trim Set w/Clipper, 10K Gold Diamond Accent Flip Flop Pendant, Open Toe Support-Magnetic Black Compression Sock, Smart Watch w/Activity Tracker and a Leg Massager for a total of $402.99 including tax and shipping and handling. When Ms. [redacted]s placed her order she usedher catalog number which offered a Free Gift.MY REJECTIONS: 1. Please understand, per the details for each promotion code, only one promotion code may be used per order. The promotion code “wedeliver” Ms. [redacted]s provided was only valid from December 10, 2016 - December 12, 2016 and had already expired at the time she placed her order. As such, we cannot credit the shipping and handling for her order. Ms. [redacted]s ordered two items that were valid under the Health and Beauty 30% off promotion. This promotion was a “Buy one-get one at 30% off” and we have issued a credit to her order in the amount of $4.84 as a courtesy for this offer. <<I have attached a confirmation email from FingerHut for my order placed on December 12, 2016 at 10:33PM, so technically my order was placed in the correct time frame to have received my free shipping 2. Per the catalog Ms. [redacted]s received a free nose trimmer was offered with the purchase of any shaver or trimmer. In order to receive the free nose trimmer the catalog instructed to add item number NBMEN to the cart to the receive the free nose trimmer, and further indicated if the hair trimmer or shaver was returned, the nose trimmer would be billed to the account for $14.99. We have sent the nose trimmer to Ms. [redacted]s at no cost. Please allow 7-10 days from the date of this letter to receive the nose trimmer. <<Although a nose trimmer is being sent to me, the nose trimmer I ordered was actually not in my catalog, the offer was stated on the Fingerhut website and said it would be applied at checkout (no mention of codes on the website) 3. In regards to Ms. [redacted]s’ concerns regarding her phone calls to us, we only have record of one phone call to our Customer Service Department. As part of our in depth review of Ms. [redacted]s’ inquiry, we reviewed the call recording from that date. We found no evidence that the agent advised Ms. [redacted]s that they did not care she was upset or received the incorrect items. Ms. [redacted]s did request to speak with a supervisor during this call and the agent advised that the supervisor was not available at the time to speak to but offered her a call back from the supervisor. Ms. [redacted]s refused the offer of a call back and again requested to speak with a supervisor. The agent advised Ms. [redacted]s that she would attempt to locate a supervisor to speak with her. The agent placed her on hold and when the agent came back to the line she advised a supervisor was not available. Ms. [redacted]s then advised the agent she no longer wanted to speak with her and requested the agent’s information, the supervisor/manager’s information and advised the agent to transfer her to someone else. The agent transferred Ms. [redacted]s to the supervisor line to leave a message for a supervisor call back. << No phone call recording they are referencing is when I spoke with a "Tia Garcia" from the "Costa Mesa Customer Service" office; however the call I was referencing took place on December 22, 2016. I have attached photos of the call placed when the gentleman I spoke to, whom would not tell me his name, placed me on hold for over 20 minutes after telling me he did not care that I was upset and received incorrect items. I have also attached photos of my return slip and the shipping label for the return of the incorrect items. We have no record of a supervisor contacting Ms. [redacted]s as a follow up to her request. We sincerely apologize for this oversight on our part. 4. We also received several emails from Ms. [redacted]s. Please understand, while we attempt to provide as much information as possible through reply emails, there are certain situations that require a customer to call Customer Service so we may assist them with their concerns. We have reviewed the emails we received and have no information as to which items Ms. [redacted]s did not receive or which items were sent to her in error. Ms. [redacted]s has requested a refund for her entire order but without us having adequate information we cannot issue a credit on her account. << The emails gave the customer service phone number to call, which I did, and received the above mentioned service from the Fingerhut Customer Service departments.

I am rejecting this response because: while I admit failing to pay as agreed, I still maintain that the product was shoddy and of low quality. I feel my offer to make good on this account was fair and in good faith. I will have no further dealings with fingerhut and will advise everyone that I know of the quality of many of their products and to avoid doing business with this company.
...⇄ # [redacted] Revdex.com of Minnesota Attn: [redacted] 220 S River Ridge Circle Burnsville, MN 55337 Re: Case # [redacted] Dear Ms. [redacted], I am writing in response to the inquiry we received from your office on behalf of Ms. [redacted] regarding a WebBank/Fingerhut Advantage Credit Account. We have completed an in-depth review of Ms. [redacted]’s concerns regarding the items she returned to us and her dissatisfaction regarding her liability for the original shipping and handling fees. Our records indicate an order was placed by mail on October 27, 2015 for the Alcove Tab-Top 80”W x 84” L Panel Pair in Spice totaling $79.98 with shipping and handling. The order was shipped to the address we have on file for Ms. [redacted] and was delivered on November 3, 2015. On November 12, 2015 we received the return of the panel pair and credit was issued in the amount of $52.04. The reason Ms. [redacted] indicated for the return was that the color was not as expected. On November 13, 2015 an order was placed for the Alcove 80”W x 84”L Insulated Foamback Tab-Top Panel Pair in Camel totaling $79.98 including shipping and handling as an exchange for the original order per Ms. [redacted]’s request. The order was shipped to the address we have on file and was delivered on November 23, 2015. We received the return of the panel pair in camel on December 10, 2015 and credit was issued in the amount of $52.04. Ms. [redacted] indicated the reason for return was that the color was not as expected. Our return policy is listed in our catalogs and on our website and is as follows: We will exchange your product or give you a refund for most items returned in new condition within 30 days after date of purchase. Returns will not be accepted for credit after 90 days. If you have any problems with a product, please check the manufacturer’s warranty. Fingerhut provides a convenient prepaid return label service for most products. You can visit our Returns Center in the My Account area of the website to print a new return label at Fingerhut.com or contact Customer Service. Pre-paid return labels are not available for truck-ship items, oversized items, or Fingerhut FreshStart accounts. Contact Customer Service for help with your return. There is no upfront fee when using the return label. There is no fee for using the return label if you received a damaged of defective product or in the case of a shipping error. The final determination of product condition is subject to our inspection. Return fees not covered by Fingerhut will be deducted from your credit based on the weight of the package. The original shipping and handling is nonrefundable if your item is not damaged or defective or in the case of a shipping error. The original shipping and handling charge of $19.99 and return shipping fee of $7.95 for each panel pair was not credited due to a “non qualifying” return reason. On December 14, 2015, Ms. [redacted] contacted our Customer Service D epartment regarding the balance on her account. The balance at that time was $55.88 for the original shipping and handling fees and the return shipping fees for both orders. On January 29, 2016 Ms. [redacted] spoke with an agent from our Billing/Recovery Department and advised her the balance remaining on her account was due to the original shipping and handling fees and return shipping fees. Ms. [redacted]’s monthly statements have been sent to the address we have on file for her, however to this date we have not received any payments. When Ms. [redacted] opened her Fingerhut Account she agreed to the terms and conditions of the credit account. Within these terms and conditions it states, “Late fees will be equal to your minimum payment due with a maximum of up to $27.00. The maximum amount will increase to $37.00 if you did not make your minimum payment on time in any one of the 6 prior billing cycles.” On May 15, 2016 Ms. [redacted]’s billing statement reflects the current balance on her account is $113.83. The minimum payment of $57.94 includes the past due amount of $46.95 and is due by June 11, 2016. Furthermore, because no payments were received, we cannot remove the past due payment history that has been reported to the credit agencies. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires us to report accurate information to these agencies. Thank you for allowing us to explain. Sincerely, Vi [redacted] Executive Care Team VF/bw
2016 ...⇄ Revdex.com of Minnesota �...⇄ #[redacted] Attn: [redacted] 220 S River Ridge Circle Burnsville, MN 55337 Re: Case # [redacted] – [redacted] Dear Ms. [redacted], I am writing in response to the inquiry we received from your office on behalf of Mr. [redacted] regarding a WebBank/Fingerhut Advantage Credit Account.[JW1] Mr. [redacted] states Fingerhut sold him a defective comforter. He claims Fingerhut will not accept the item as a return. He does not want to pay for a comforter that he claims was defective. Our records indicate Mr. [redacted] purchased a Down Alternative Stripe Comforter - King on July 18, 2014 for $107.99 plus $17.99 shipping/handling. Mr. [redacted] contacted Fingerhut on January 1, 2015 stating the comforter he received had a hole in it. A Fingerhut representative explained the return policy which states: We will grant exchange or issue a credit for full cash price within 30 days of receipt. After 180 days, we will no longer grant an exchange or issue a refund. Shipping and handling charges are nonrefundable. Computers, camcorders, videogames, and generators: Fingerhut offers returns and exchanges through the 30-day home trial period for the full cash price. After that time we can no longer grant exchanges or accept returns. Other product concerns must be handled under the manufacturers’ warranty. Software and music CD’s: May be returned for credit or refund only if in the original unopened packaging with the factory seal intact. Exchanges are permitted for the identical product only. On February 2, 2015 a Fingerhut representative sent a prepaid label to return the comforter to Mr. [redacted]’s email (R[redacted][email protected]). As the return was outside of the timeframe for allowable returns, the representative should not have sent the return label to Mr. [redacted] as Fingerhut would not have accepted it. We apologize for this representative error. We received the return on February 16, 2015. On February 18, 2015 we mailed a letter to Mr. [redacted] stating we were unable to accept the return for a refund or exchange due to the length of time that has passed from the date of purchase. Mr. [redacted] contacted Fingerhut on February 19, 2015 insisting a credit be given for the comforter. As a one-time exception to our return policy, the full merchandise price of $107.99 was issued to Mr. [redacted]’s Fingerhut account. Mr. [redacted] was still required to pay for the original shipping/handling of $17.99. As our return policy states, “the original shipping/handling is nonrefundable on return merchandise if the item is not damaged, defective, or in the case of a shipping error.” Since credit for the merchandise was issued as a onetime exception, Mr. [redacted] was required to pay the original shipping/handling of $17.99. Mr. [redacted] purchased an additional Down Alternative Stripe Comforter - King on March 17, 2015.On May 2, 2016 Mr. [redacted] requested to return this item. We informed him we were unable to accept this item as a return due to the length of time that has passed since the item was ordered. The last payment we received from Mr. [redacted] was on January 3, 2016. After this payment his balance was $81.92. We did not received a payment in February 2016 which resulted in a $8.99 late fee, March 2016 resulting in a $17.98 late fee, and April 2016 resulting in a $28.97 late fee. When Mr. [redacted] opened his Fingerhut Credit Account he agreed to the terms and conditions. Within these terms and conditions it states, “Late fees will be equal to your minimum payment due with a maximum amount of $27.00. The maximum amount will increase but not be more than $37.00 if you did not make your minimum payment on time in any one of the 6 prior billing cycles.” As a reminder, Mr. [redacted]’s Account with WebBank/Fingerhut is a revolving credit account. As such, it is subject to accrued interest changes whenever a balance is carried from one billing cycle to the next. The interest is calculated based on the account’s current Annual Percentage Rate of 25.15%, and the monthly charges will vary in relation to increases or reductions in the account’s balance from month to month. On January 11, 2015 Mr. [redacted] requested to close his account with Fingerhut. On that same date his request was processed and his account was closed. Per Mr. [redacted]’s request his account was reopened on February 9, 2015. Mr. [redacted] requested his account be closed again on July 31, 2015. That same date his account was closed. If his account was not paid in full when he closed it, his outstanding balance will continue to accrue interest and other changes and be subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement. After July 31, 2015 Mr. [redacted] was not able to use his account for any further purchases. We have reviewed and found the credit bureaus are reporting accurately at this time. We cannot revise the information we are reporting to the credit bureaus as we are required by law to furnish accurate reporting. Please reference the Reporting and Monitoring section of our terms and conditions that was included in your Welcome Packet. It states: “If you fail to fulfil the terms of your credit obligation, a negative report reflecting on your credit records can be submitted to one or more credit reporting agencies.” Conversely, accounts that are in good stating will be reported as well. As of the date on this letter Mr. [redacted]’s account balance is $147.06. A minimum payment of $58.95 is due by June 5, 2016. Thank you for allowing us to explain.

Re: Case # [redacted] - [redacted] Jr, [redacted]
Dear Ms....
[redacted],
I am writing in response to the inquiry we received from your office on behalf of Mr. [redacted] Jr. regarding a WebBank/Fingerhut Advantage Credit Account.
Per the Account Terms and Conditions to which Mr. [redacted] has agreed, "We may increase or reduce your credit limit, or suspend or terminate your Account at any time without cause. We will provide notice to you to the extent applicable by law." Any reduction, increase, or other change to the account's credit limit is the result of ongoing systematic monitoring of the account activity data. This information may pertain to the customer's Fingerhut Account as well as their credit history as a whole.
Customers who show an overall strong performance with respect to credit may notice their Fingerhut Account has been given a credit line increase, either temporary or permanent. By placing an order or orders on their credit account during the time their temporary increase is in effect, the customer's regular credit limit is given a permanent increase matching the amount of the order(s), to a round dollar figure. If no orders are place within the applicable time frame, the temporary increase expires and the regular credit limit is restored.
In regards to Mr. [redacted]'s concern that the credit increases may lower his credit score, unfortunately, credit reporting agencies do not reveal the exact details and inner-workings of their scoring systems. What is known are the basic components and attributes of a credit file that are influential determinants of the overall credit rating. If our temporary credit increase would have any impact in this regard, it would be in relation to the "credit utilization" (also known as debt-to-credit-limit ratio), which is the percentage of available credit that has been borrowed.
While we feel this process does not have any long-term, unreasonable impact on our customers' credit ratings, we respect and accommodate customer requests to opt out of credit increases.
Our records indicate that Mr. [redacted]'s credit was increased to $2000.00 on June 3, 2015. On August 17, 2015 Mr. [redacted] requested to opt out of temporary credit line increases. This request could not be processed as Fingerhut requires customer's specify both temporary and permanent increases be frozen.
After another account review, Mr. [redacted] was given an additional temporary increase on September 3, 2015. Mr. [redacted] notified Fingerhut on September 10, 2015 that he no longer wanted any credit increases on the account. This request was processed on September 23, 2015 and his credit limit was frozen at $2000.00.
Per Mr. [redacted]'s request, his WebBank/Fingerhut Advantage Credit Account was closed on September 27, 2015.
We trust this explanation will meet Mr. [redacted]'s expectations, and would like to apologize for any confusion this may have caused him.
Thank you for allowing us to explain.
Sincerely,
Vi [redacted]

I am rejecting this response because: Where did they get the information to open the account? I did not apply. What police department would I file a report with? Where is my signature? They need to provide proof that I opened the account. I never ordered anything. Where was is it sent? I never received anything. They did tell me that an item was returned. Where did they send the credit? That is who they should be going after. I want this off of my credit report and the debt removed from my name in any way.
made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and find that this resolution ( if credit is applied to Fingerhut account) is satisfactory since I will need to go elsewhere to have the ring repaired. Thank you for allowing me to explain my situation with Fingerhut.[redacted]
I am rejecting this response because: The unit was defective and not even used very often so now I have a laptop that does not work correctly. I will never buy anything form their company again and I did return it within the 90 day period. I used it maybe 5 or 6 times tops, I'm so disappointed in this response and they didn't even bother calling me about the issue. Not happy at all at this point....I'm sorry but this is terrible customer service.

She also states that the free nose trimmer was not located in a catalog but was offered on our website and said it would be applied at checkout and that there was no mention of an item number on our website. Ms. [redacted]s also supplied the date for us to investigate further into her concerns regarding the Customer Service agent she spoke to. She also included pictures of the shipping label and the return reason form for the items she received that she did not order. We have reviewed the information provided by Ms. [redacted]s regarding the promotion for free shipping. The order confirmation email indicates that Ms. [redacted]s order was placed at 10:33 PM Pacific Time. The details for the promotion indicate the order must be placed no later than 11:59 PM Central Time and as such the shipping promotion had already expired prior to her order being placed. As a courtesy, we have credited the shipping and handling charges for this order. Ms. [redacted]s will see the credit reflected within 1-2 billing cycles on her billing statement. Additionally, the details for the free nose trimmer included the item number for the nose trimmer on our website. Once the hair trimmer and the nose trimmer were both added to the cart, the price for the nose trimmer would have been updated per the offer.

am looking at my invoice from this Company and it shows a balance of $107.20. Please explain how it is good buisness practice to charge people money when they return the product to you? I dont recall ever receiving an itemized invoice explaining what the charges were for. I made the assumption it was your so called insurance protection plan called Safeline. You referenced I elected to enroll in this in 2009 on your website, eight years ago? A website I could not even access when I ordered the camera I returned, because I dont know my user id or password to access my account.. I had to call my order in. I was asked if I wanted to purchase insurance at that time and I said No, I was not interested. She asked me again if I was sure I didnt want to purchases that and I said no again.The companys response said I am liable for shipping charges both ways when an item is returned. Why was I charged $19.99 for standard USPS service to recieve the product but Fingerhut only paid $7.94 to get it shipped back? It appears to me they are looking to make a significant profit by inflating their shipping costs. I will agree to pay a total of $15.88 in shipping costs, not $27.94. I also refuse to pay interest or late charges on shipping costs. Where does $107.20 come in to play?? Even if I figure the $27.94 - $107.20, that is a $79.26 difference. Thats some shady business practice you have if you feel justified in charging a customer that amount of money for a product I never puchased. Is that how you stay in business, by collecting money for nothing? Absolutely horrible customer service. [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:
BACKGROUND INFO: Our records indicate Ms. [redacted]s placed her order on our website on December 13, 2016 for a 23 piece Hair Trim Set w/Clipper, 10K Gold Diamond Accent Flip Flop Pendant, Open Toe Support-Magnetic Black Compression Sock, Smart Watch w/Activity Tracker and a Leg Massager for a total of $402.99 including tax and shipping and handling. When Ms. [redacted]s placed her order she usedher catalog number which offered a Free Gift.MY REJECTIONS: 1. Please understand, per the details for each promotion code, only one promotion code may be used per order. The promotion code “wedeliver” Ms. [redacted]s provided was only valid from December 10, 2016 - December 12, 2016 and had already expired at the time she placed her order. As such, we cannot credit the shipping and handling for her order. Ms. [redacted]s ordered two items that were valid under the Health and Beauty 30% off promotion. This promotion was a “Buy one-get one at 30% off” and we have issued a credit to her order in the amount of $4.84 as a courtesy for this offer. <<I have attached a confirmation email from FingerHut for my order placed on December 12, 2016 at 10:33PM, so technically my order was placed in the correct time frame to have received my free shipping 2. Per the catalog Ms. [redacted]s received a free nose trimmer was offered with the purchase of any shaver or trimmer. In order to receive the free nose trimmer the catalog instructed to add item number NBMEN to the cart to the receive the free nose trimmer, and further indicated if the hair trimmer or shaver was returned, the nose trimmer would be billed to the account for $14.99. We have sent the nose trimmer to Ms. [redacted]s at no cost. Please allow 7-10 days from the date of this letter to receive the nose trimmer. <<Although a nose trimmer is being sent to me, the nose trimmer I ordered was actually not in my catalog, the offer was stated on the Fingerhut website and said it would be applied at checkout (no mention of codes on the website) 3. In regards to Ms. [redacted]s’ concerns regarding her phone calls to us, we only have record of one phone call to our Customer Service Department. As part of our in depth review of Ms. [redacted]s’ inquiry, we reviewed the call recording from that date. We found no evidence that the agent advised Ms. [redacted]s that they did not care she was upset or received the incorrect items. Ms. [redacted]s did request to speak with a supervisor during this call and the agent advised that the supervisor was not available at the time to speak to but offered her a call back from the supervisor. Ms. [redacted]s refused the offer of a call back and again requested to speak with a supervisor. The agent advised Ms. [redacted]s that she would attempt to locate a supervisor to speak with her. The agent placed her on hold and when the agent came back to the line she advised a supervisor was not available. Ms. [redacted]s then advised the agent she no longer wanted to speak with her and requested the agent’s information, the supervisor/manager’s information and advised the agent to transfer her to someone else. The agent transferred Ms. [redacted]s to the supervisor line to leave a message for a supervisor call back. << No phone call recording they are referencing is when I spoke with a "Tia Garcia" from the "Costa Mesa Customer Service" office; however the call I was referencing took place on December 22, 2016. I have attached photos of the call placed when the gentleman I spoke to, whom would not tell me his name, placed me on hold for over 20 minutes after telling me he did not care that I was upset and received incorrect items. I have also attached photos of my return slip and the shipping label for the return of the incorrect items. We have no record of a supervisor contacting Ms. [redacted]s as a follow up to her request. We sincerely apologize for this oversight on our part. 4. We also received several emails from Ms. [redacted]s. Please understand, while we attempt to provide as much information as possible through reply emails, there are certain situations that require a customer to call Customer Service so we may assist them with their concerns. We have reviewed the emails we received and have no information as to which items Ms. [redacted]s did not receive or which items were sent to her in error. Ms. [redacted]s has requested a refund for her entire order but without us having adequate information we cannot issue a credit on her account. << The emails gave the customer service phone number to call, which I did, and received the above mentioned service from the Fingerhut Customer Service departments.

I am rejecting this response because: while I admit failing to pay as agreed, I still maintain that the product was shoddy and of low quality. I feel my offer to make good on this account was fair and in good faith. I will have no further dealings with fingerhut and will advise everyone that I know of the quality of many of their products and to avoid doing business with this company.

...⇄ # [redacted] Revdex.com of Minnesota Attn: [redacted] 220 S River Ridge Circle Burnsville, MN 55337 Re: Case # [redacted] Dear Ms. [redacted], I am writing in response to the inquiry we received from your office on behalf of Ms. [redacted] regarding a WebBank/Fingerhut Advantage Credit Account. We have completed an in-depth review of Ms. [redacted]’s concerns regarding the items she returned to us and her dissatisfaction regarding her liability for the original shipping and handling fees. Our records indicate an order was placed by mail on October 27, 2015 for the Alcove Tab-Top 80”W x 84” L Panel Pair in Spice totaling $79.98 with shipping and handling. The order was shipped to the address we have on file for Ms. [redacted] and was delivered on November 3, 2015. On November 12, 2015 we received the return of the panel pair and credit was issued in the amount of $52.04. The reason Ms. [redacted] indicated for the return was that the color was not as expected. On November 13, 2015 an order was placed for the Alcove 80”W x 84”L Insulated Foamback Tab-Top Panel Pair in Camel totaling $79.98 including shipping and handling as an exchange for the original order per Ms. [redacted]’s request. The order was shipped to the address we have on file and was delivered on November 23, 2015. We received the return of the panel pair in camel on December 10, 2015 and credit was issued in the amount of $52.04. Ms. [redacted] indicated the reason for return was that the color was not as expected. Our return policy is listed in our catalogs and on our website and is as follows: We will exchange your product or give you a refund for most items returned in new condition within 30 days after date of purchase. Returns will not be accepted for credit after 90 days. If you have any problems with a product, please check the manufacturer’s warranty. Fingerhut provides a convenient prepaid return label service for most products. You can visit our Returns Center in the My Account area of the website to print a new return label at Fingerhut.com or contact Customer Service. Pre-paid return labels are not available for truck-ship items, oversized items, or Fingerhut FreshStart accounts. Contact Customer Service for help with your return. There is no upfront fee when using the return label. There is no fee for using the return label if you received a damaged of defective product or in the case of a shipping error. The final determination of product condition is subject to our inspection. Return fees not covered by Fingerhut will be deducted from your credit based on the weight of the package. The original shipping and handling is nonrefundable if your item is not damaged or defective or in the case of a shipping error. The original shipping and handling charge of $19.99 and return shipping fee of $7.95 for each panel pair was not credited due to a “non qualifying” return reason. On December 14, 2015, Ms. [redacted] contacted our Customer Service D epartment regarding the balance on her account. The balance at that time was $55.88 for the original shipping and handling fees and the return shipping fees for both orders. On January 29, 2016 Ms. [redacted] spoke with an agent from our Billing/Recovery Department and advised her the balance remaining on her account was due to the original shipping and handling fees and return shipping fees. Ms. [redacted]’s monthly statements have been sent to the address we have on file for her, however to this date we have not received any payments. When Ms. [redacted] opened her Fingerhut Account she agreed to the terms and conditions of the credit account. Within these terms and conditions it states, “Late fees will be equal to your minimum payment due with a maximum of up to $27.00. The maximum amount will increase to $37.00 if you did not make your minimum payment on time in any one of the 6 prior billing cycles.” On May 15, 2016 Ms. [redacted]’s billing statement reflects the current balance on her account is $113.83. The minimum payment of $57.94 includes the past due amount of $46.95 and is due by June 11, 2016. Furthermore, because no payments were received, we cannot remove the past due payment history that has been reported to the credit agencies. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires us to report accurate information to these agencies. Thank you for allowing us to explain. Sincerely, Vi [redacted] Executive Care Team VF/bw

2016 ...⇄ Revdex.com of Minnesota �...⇄ #[redacted] Attn: [redacted] 220 S River Ridge Circle Burnsville, MN 55337 Re: Case # [redacted] – [redacted] Dear Ms. [redacted], I am writing in response to the inquiry we received from your office on behalf of Mr. [redacted] regarding a WebBank/Fingerhut Advantage Credit Account.[JW1] Mr. [redacted] states Fingerhut sold him a defective comforter. He claims Fingerhut will not accept the item as a return. He does not want to pay for a comforter that he claims was defective. Our records indicate Mr. [redacted] purchased a Down Alternative Stripe Comforter - King on July 18, 2014 for $107.99 plus $17.99 shipping/handling. Mr. [redacted] contacted Fingerhut on January 1, 2015 stating the comforter he received had a hole in it. A Fingerhut representative explained the return policy which states: We will grant exchange or issue a credit for full cash price within 30 days of receipt. After 180 days, we will no longer grant an exchange or issue a refund. Shipping and handling charges are nonrefundable. Computers, camcorders, videogames, and generators: Fingerhut offers returns and exchanges through the 30-day home trial period for the full cash price. After that time we can no longer grant exchanges or accept returns. Other product concerns must be handled under the manufacturers’ warranty. Software and music CD’s: May be returned for credit or refund only if in the original unopened packaging with the factory seal intact. Exchanges are permitted for the identical product only. On February 2, 2015 a Fingerhut representative sent a prepaid label to return the comforter to Mr. [redacted]’s email (R[redacted][email protected]). As the return was outside of the timeframe for allowable returns, the representative should not have sent the return label to Mr. [redacted] as Fingerhut would not have accepted it. We apologize for this representative error. We received the return on February 16, 2015. On February 18, 2015 we mailed a letter to Mr. [redacted] stating we were unable to accept the return for a refund or exchange due to the length of time that has passed from the date of purchase. Mr. [redacted] contacted Fingerhut on February 19, 2015 insisting a credit be given for the comforter. As a one-time exception to our return policy, the full merchandise price of $107.99 was issued to Mr. [redacted]’s Fingerhut account. Mr. [redacted] was still required to pay for the original shipping/handling of $17.99. As our return policy states, “the original shipping/handling is nonrefundable on return merchandise if the item is not damaged, defective, or in the case of a shipping error.” Since credit for the merchandise was issued as a onetime exception, Mr. [redacted] was required to pay the original shipping/handling of $17.99. Mr. [redacted] purchased an additional Down Alternative Stripe Comforter - King on March 17, 2015.On May 2, 2016 Mr. [redacted] requested to return this item. We informed him we were unable to accept this item as a return due to the length of time that has passed since the item was ordered. The last payment we received from Mr. [redacted] was on January 3, 2016. After this payment his balance was $81.92. We did not received a payment in February 2016 which resulted in a $8.99 late fee, March 2016 resulting in a $17.98 late fee, and April 2016 resulting in a $28.97 late fee. When Mr. [redacted] opened his Fingerhut Credit Account he agreed to the terms and conditions. Within these terms and conditions it states, “Late fees will be equal to your minimum payment due with a maximum amount of $27.00. The maximum amount will increase but not be more than $37.00 if you did not make your minimum payment on time in any one of the 6 prior billing cycles.” As a reminder, Mr. [redacted]’s Account with WebBank/Fingerhut is a revolving credit account. As such, it is subject to accrued interest changes whenever a balance is carried from one billing cycle to the next. The interest is calculated based on the account’s current Annual Percentage Rate of 25.15%, and the monthly charges will vary in relation to increases or reductions in the account’s balance from month to month. On January 11, 2015 Mr. [redacted] requested to close his account with Fingerhut. On that same date his request was processed and his account was closed. Per Mr. [redacted]’s request his account was reopened on February 9, 2015. Mr. [redacted] requested his account be closed again on July 31, 2015. That same date his account was closed. If his account was not paid in full when he closed it, his outstanding balance will continue to accrue interest and other changes and be subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement. After July 31, 2015 Mr. [redacted] was not able to use his account for any further purchases. We have reviewed and found the credit bureaus are reporting accurately at this time. We cannot revise the information we are reporting to the credit bureaus as we are required by law to furnish accurate reporting. Please reference the Reporting and Monitoring section of our terms and conditions that was included in your Welcome Packet. It states: “If you fail to fulfil the terms of your credit obligation, a negative report reflecting on your credit records can be submitted to one or more credit reporting agencies.” Conversely, accounts that are in good stating will be reported as well. As of the date on this letter Mr. [redacted]’s account balance is $147.06. A minimum payment of $58.95 is due by June 5, 2016. Thank you for allowing us to explain.

Re: Case # [redacted] - [redacted] Jr, [redacted]
Dear Ms....
[redacted],
I am writing in response to the inquiry we received from your office on behalf of Mr. [redacted] Jr. regarding a WebBank/Fingerhut Advantage Credit Account.
Per the Account Terms and Conditions to which Mr. [redacted] has agreed, "We may increase or reduce your credit limit, or suspend or terminate your Account at any time without cause. We will provide notice to you to the extent applicable by law." Any reduction, increase, or other change to the account's credit limit is the result of ongoing systematic monitoring of the account activity data. This information may pertain to the customer's Fingerhut Account as well as their credit history as a whole.
Customers who show an overall strong performance with respect to credit may notice their Fingerhut Account has been given a credit line increase, either temporary or permanent. By placing an order or orders on their credit account during the time their temporary increase is in effect, the customer's regular credit limit is given a permanent increase matching the amount of the order(s), to a round dollar figure. If no orders are place within the applicable time frame, the temporary increase expires and the regular credit limit is restored.
In regards to Mr. [redacted]'s concern that the credit increases may lower his credit score, unfortunately, credit reporting agencies do not reveal the exact details and inner-workings of their scoring systems. What is known are the basic components and attributes of a credit file that are influential determinants of the overall credit rating. If our temporary credit increase would have any impact in this regard, it would be in relation to the "credit utilization" (also known as debt-to-credit-limit ratio), which is the percentage of available credit that has been borrowed.
While we feel this process does not have any long-term, unreasonable impact on our customers' credit ratings, we respect and accommodate customer requests to opt out of credit increases.
Our records indicate that Mr. [redacted]'s credit was increased to $2000.00 on June 3, 2015. On August 17, 2015 Mr. [redacted] requested to opt out of temporary credit line increases. This request could not be processed as Fingerhut requires customer's specify both temporary and permanent increases be frozen.
After another account review, Mr. [redacted] was given an additional temporary increase on September 3, 2015. Mr. [redacted] notified Fingerhut on September 10, 2015 that he no longer wanted any credit increases on the account. This request was processed on September 23, 2015 and his credit limit was frozen at $2000.00.
Per Mr. [redacted]'s request, his WebBank/Fingerhut Advantage Credit Account was closed on September 27, 2015.
We trust this explanation will meet Mr. [redacted]'s expectations, and would like to apologize for any confusion this may have caused him.
Thank you for allowing us to explain.
Sincerely,
Vi [redacted]

I am rejecting this response because: Where did they get the information to open the account? I did not apply. What police department would I file a report with? Where is my signature? They need to provide proof that I opened the account. I never ordered anything. Where was is it sent? I never received anything. They did tell me that an item was returned. Where did they send the credit? That is who they should be going after. I want this off of my credit report and the debt removed from my name in any way.

I am rejecting this response because: The unit was defective and not even used very often so now I have a laptop that does not work correctly. I will never buy anything form their company again and I did return it within the 90 day period.

CONFIDENTIAL COMMUNICATION January 24, 2017 ...⇄ # [redacted] Revdex.com of Minnesota Attn: [redacted] 220 S River Ridge Circle Burnsville, MN 55337 Re: Case # [redacted]– [redacted]s, [redacted] Dear Ms. [redacted], I am writing in response to the further inquiry we received from your office on behalf of Ms. [redacted]s regarding a WebBank/Fingerhut Advantage Credit Account. Ms. [redacted]s indicates she placed the order on December 12, 2016 at 10:33 PM and as such her order was placed within the time frame required to receive free shipping for her order. She also states that the free nose trimmer was not located in a catalog but was offered on our website and said it would be applied at checkout and that there was no mention of an item number on our website. Ms. [redacted]s also supplied the date for us to investigate further into her concerns regarding the Customer Service agent she spoke to. She also included pictures of the shipping label and the return reason form for the items she received that she did not order. We have reviewed the information provided by Ms. [redacted]s regarding the promotion for free shipping. The order confirmation email indicates that Ms. [redacted]s order was placed at 10:33 PM Pacific Time. The details for the promotion indicate the order must be placed no later than 11:59 PM Central Time and as such the shipping promotion had already expired prior to her order being placed. As a courtesy, we have credited the shipping and handling charges for this order. Ms. [redacted]s will see the credit reflected within 1-2 billing cycles on her billing statement. Additionally, the details for the free nose trimmer included the item number for the nose trimmer on our website. Once the hair trimmer and the nose trimmer were both added to the cart, the price for the nose trimmer would have been updated per the offer. We were able to review the call recording with the information Ms. [redacted]s provided regarding her concerns with the Customer Service agent she spoke with. We sincerely apologize that the representative was unprofessional in his interactions with Ms. [redacted]s. Our agents are accountable to meet our professional standards and avoid any instance which may cause our customers to feel they are not valued, heard or understood. We appreciate Ms. [redacted]s bringing this to our attention and value her feedback. On January 20, 2017 we received the return of the incorrect items Ms. [redacted]s returned to us. Her account was credited in the amount of $76.99 for the items. Please allow 1-2 billing cycles for the credit to appear on her billing statement. If Ms. [redacted]s has further questions she may contact Customer Service at ###-###-####, Monday – Friday, 8:00 AM – 8:00 PM CT. Thank you for allowing us to explain. Sincerely, Vi [redacted] Executive Care Team VF/bw
I am rejecting this response because I...
am looking at my invoice from this Company and it shows a balance of $107.20. Please explain how it is good buisness practice to charge people money when they return the product to you? I dont recall ever receiving an itemized invoice explaining what the charges were for. I made the assumption it was your so called insurance protection plan called Safeline. You referenced I elected to enroll in this in 2009 on your website, eight years ago? A website I could not even access when I ordered the camera I returned, because I dont know my user id or password to access my account.. I had to call my order in. I was asked if I wanted to purchase insurance at that time and I said No, I was not interested. She asked me again if I was sure I didnt want to purchases that and I said no again.The companys response said I am liable for shipping charges both ways when an item is returned. Why was I charged $19.99 for standard USPS service to recieve the product but Fingerhut only paid $7.94 to get it shipped back? It appears to me they are looking to make a significant profit by inflating their shipping costs. I will agree to pay a total of $15.88 in shipping costs, not $27.94. I also refuse to pay interest or late charges on shipping costs. Where does $107.20 come in to play?? Even if I figure the $27.94 - $107.20, that is a $79.26 difference. Thats some shady business practice you have if you feel justified in charging a customer that amount of money for a product I never puchased. Is that how you stay in business, by collecting money for nothing? Absolutely horrible customer service. [redacted]
