Company Response
4/18/2024
Company states; An online application for credit with WebBank/Fingerhut was processed on April 29, 2017, via the internet with your personally identifiable information. The name, Social Security number and date of birth had successful validation by the automated underwriting system, and the customer data was matched against independent third-party data. Additionally, there were no fraud indicators with the application. The application was approved the same day for a WebBank/Fingerhut
Advantage credit account. During the application process the customer is required to acknowledge the box which states, "Yes, I accept these terms. Clicking submit constitutes my signature to this application for credit."
Two orders were placed on this account. The first order was placed over the phone on August 11, 2017 for a total of $126.52, and the second order was also placed over the phone on August 31, 2017 for $270.04. The orders were shipped to address 2325 7th St, Wasco, CA 93280. This is the same address you provided on your complaint to the Better Business Bureau (21478438). No payments were received for these orders.
You opted for electronic delivery of your statements, and each month on the 19th day, Fingerhut notified you via the email on file, [email protected], that your statement were available. When your account was in a past due status, statements were mailed to the address on file, until the account charged off.
