Consumer complaint: My original loan was with XXXX XXXX which was illegally billing me. I stopped paying because there were numerous discrepancies in the amount being billed. Despite numerous request to have my loan reviewed, the request were ignored and sent to be foreclosed upon. They started a foreclosure which I was never served the summons and complaint or sent the 90 day notice as required by XXXX laws. My loan was later sold to waterfall which has been serviced by Statebridge Company. After the transfer I tried to rectify the problems with Statebridge. Rather, Statebridge continued to harass me to hand over my home rather than work with me to bring the loan current. After the transfer Statebridge continued the illegal billing and added an additional XXXX. On numerous occasions I was told I would not be given a modification and my only option was to turn over my home XXXX. A home which has more than a couple XXXX of dollars in equity. I also communicated with Statebridge about the faulty foreclosure, yet they still tried to obtain a default foreclosure. After I filed I motion to dismiss and several court appearances, the judge reviewed the case and ordered a traverse hearing. Upon the looming of the traverse hearing they discontinued their foreclosure action. 
The foreclosure was also sent to my neighbor which is a violation of federal laws. After communicating with their attorney 's and servicers asking for proof of the amount being billed they have basically ignored my request. Statebridge sent me a letter stating they were not required to answer my qualified written request since I am in foreclosure and their attorney 's have just ignored my request for documents. They have recently ended their foreclosure case and although their order of discontinuance states that the case is discontinuing without cost, I received a statement with additional foreclosure and attorney 's fees. Statebridge, XXXX are in violation of Federal, state and City foreclosure rules. XXXX Statebridge have insisted that I hand over over my house to them for {$3000.00} rather than justify their fees.

Consumer complaint: I informed this collection agency that I have been paying the original creditor and find it unnecessary that this account went to them. I also informed them that I will continue to pay the original creditor until the account is paid in full. They said they would continue to call and they have. I find this as a former of harassment since I informed them if my situation.

Consumer complaint: In XX/XX/XXXX I financed a Flat Screen TV through Best Buy for around {$1800.00}. I purchased it on 36 months same as cash promotion. I made all of my payments on time and when I went to make my online payment this month ( XX/XX/XXXX ) my balance increased {$1800.00}. I called the lender, CitiBank to go over this situation. They informed me because I did not payoff the balance of {$610.00} remaining on the loan as of the close of XXXX they added the {$1800.00} to the loan. This is more than the TV cost me 3 years ago. I advised them offered the option of a monthly e-mail payment reminder and I could be eco friendly by paying on line, which I chose. This does not show you when your promotional offer is expiring unless you click the link to the statement, which I rarely did since i would just verify the balances each month based on what I paid the prior month. show you when the promotional offer is up.This is very misleading because unless you click the link, you would never see when the promotional offer is expiring. I offered to payoff the balance and the interest due on the balance and they advised me they would not do this. I spoke with a person named XXXX. He would not give me his last name nor would he give the name, number or let me speak with his supervisor. This is unacceptable. Had they advised me of this on the monthly payment e-mail reminder I receive, I would have paid this off in full. They told me I am responsible for this. I was mislead about the interest being retroactive on the original loan amount nor was I ever advised on their monthly e-mail pay reminder the promotional offer was expiring. I realize this is on the monthly statement but I decided to go green with the payment reminder to be eco friendly and it cost me because unless you click the statement link, you will never see this. I have no problem paying the interest due to my mistake but not on the original loan amount. I truly believe this is a deceptive practice promoted by CitiBank to take advantage of honest people. I am sure this has happened to many others.

Consumer complaint: I took a Super Check offer from Wells Fargo Bank that offered, I believe, 15 months with no interest. I calculated that {$300.00} a month would pay back the check amount by the deadline to insure no interest. When the the card was utilized for other reasons, I paid that amount in full along with the {$300.00} and I am still being charged interest. Why??

Consumer complaint: I had closed my service with XXXX. The representative told me to wait until the equipment fees cleared to pay my final bill. The final value is due XXXX XXXX, 2015. Sunrise Credit Agency called me stating they owned debt and demanded I pay them {$470.00}. They refused to put it in writing. They continue to call. I paid XXXX the remaining value and cleared the outstanding balance. The XXXX representative did not know who sunrise credit agency was, why they would have the account, or why they would call. She suggested I report the company for false collections.

Consumer complaint: I contacted Ditech 's preservation department on or around XXXX/XXXX/2015 after I had been informed that Ditech had sent someone to my property to cut my grass. The company they retained- XXXX XXXX XXXX retained another smaller contractor who completely destroyed both sides of my gate along with the pad lock that was securing the property. They knocked the fence off the posting on both sides of my gate. By the way, the backyard is fenced and locked so I 'm not sure why they felt the need to break thru the gate to cut the back yard, which can not be seen! I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX and they claimed Ditech 's preservation department authorized them to cut the lock and to gain access to the back yard. I had been corresponding with Ditech 's XXXX XXXX in the property preservation department to work on a resolution but my emails are now going unanswered. Due to their unscrupulous actions, my home has been unsecured since the company they hired trespassed on private property and destroyed my fence, gate and locking mechanism. To make matters worse, they have been and are now charging me corporate advance fees for the lawn maintenance and now fence repairs for a gate their contractor broker! I must tell you I have pictures where no repairs have taken place. Additionally, I asked on XXXX/XXXX/2015 that they issue a cease and desist order to all vendors from entering upon my property, but they are still authorizing vendors to perform work at my property. When I initially inquired about the " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' appearing on my statement, I was told that this was part of my escrow shortage. When I inquired on another occasion, no one knew what the fees being charged were but would send me a statement, which I never received. I recently spoke to a SPOC with Ditech, XXXX XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/2015 and he did n't know what the fees were for either but promised to find out why these fees are now in excess of {$1300.00} on my account. I must tell you that we are being forced to pay them in addition to the regular monthly payment. Our payment was refused if we did not pay toward the corporate balance. I am appalled at how my loan is being serviced and fear that other consumers are being taken advantage of. I never had these problems until my loan servicing was switched from XXXX Mortgage to Ditech. Please help!

Consumer complaint: Bank of American charges interest on on purchases which are paid XXXX % on or prior to the due date & even when set up to autopay on due date, they pay a day late ( to themselves ) & collect interest. Most months I carry no balance forward, yet they charge me interest monthly & only retract the charges when I complain. The next month, it starts again with 18.74 % APR. Other credit card companies/banks like XXXX or XXXX do not do this under same circumstances.

Consumer complaint: I am trustee on a home my mother owned. There were several XXXX dues levied on a monthly basis. XXXX XXXX contracts with First Service Residential for billing. I was not receiving bills in a timely manner. At the time of my mother 's death, the XXXX dues were due for about three months. I paid in full, and the XXXX cashed the check. Not two days later, I received a collection notice showing that over an entire year 's worth of dues were owed. I provided a written notice within 30 days disputing the debt stating it was paid and providing records. I asked Red Rock Financial Services ( the collection agency ) to verify the debt. I received no such records. I am now in the middle of selling the home. At signing, I was presented with a settlement statement from the title company stating that the XXXX dues are in collection status and that the amount still owed is significantly higher than the yearly amount. I still have received no justification for this amount and from where it has arisen given that the fees were paid in full.

Consumer complaint: I mailed GLA a letter on XX/XX/2015 asking them to remove the comment " customer disputes this item '' I can not proceed with a mortgage with these XXXX collects saying this. On XX/XX/2015 a GLA person contacted me about paying the XXXX collections. 

I told her that I might have paid these collections through the XXXX dept XXXX. XXXX hospital sends my unpaid bills there most of the time. 

I have had XXXX about 10 years ago. I have to have bi-annual XXXX with them. Sometimes I just ca n't paythe amount I owe right away. 

I spoke to GLA today, XXXX about paying the XXXX collections and a lady tells me there are XXXX more collections I owe. That are being reported on my credit that I am not seeing? 

Is she kidding me? GLA never mentioned these XXXX other collections before? Is this a collection scam? She never offered my any proof of the bills/collections. Just said I had to pay them along with the XXXX I am aware of. 

So this is what they call scamming the elderly.

Consumer complaint: I received a statement in the mail from CMRE Financial Services saying that I was in collections for a balance of XXXX for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX a place I have never been ). I recently did have imaging done, but I called both facilities/doctors that ordered and administered my appointments and imaging and XXXX said that I had no outstanding bills. I looked up XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and their phones just ring until you get a recording that specifically mentions if you have a billing question to call a certain number, that number also just rings and rings. The letter from CMRE states that have tried to collect this outstanding balance multiple times, yet I have never once received a bill. I do not know what to do at this point, because I do not owe anyone money, but these people are falsely stating that I do.

Consumer complaint: CitiMortgage recently sent me a document advising of my escrow shortage for the 2015 year. They advised me that if I do not pay the escrow shortage, that my monthly payment would increase from {$1100.00} to {$1200.00}. They advised that I could pay the escrow shortage, and that if I did, my monthly payment would be adjusted from {$1200.00} to {$1200.00}. 

I do not want my payment increasing above {$1100.00}. So I sent a payment of {$600.00} ( escrow shortage of {$330.00} + {$270.00} to cover the increase in my escrow payment ). However, when I called in, Citi refuses to adjust my payment back to {$1100.00}, stating that they can no longer advance the escrow EVEN IF IT IS AT THE BORROWER 'S REQUEST. That is ridiculous. If I cut a check for {$5000.00} to cover my entire upcoming year 's worth of taxes, Citi should n't be charging me ANYTHING for escrow. The purpose of escrow is to ensure that irresponsible borrower 's pay their taxes. I PAY MY TAXES!!! If I choose to put money into an account IN ADVANCE to pay my taxes, my monthly escrow payment should be adjusted accordingly to reflect the advance. AND I DO NOT CARE WHAT " CFPB GUIDELINES '' ARE IN PLACE FOR THE MORTGAGE INDUSTRY 'S ESCROW POLICIES ; I HAVE THE RIGHT AS THE CUSTOMER TO ADVANCE MY ESCROW SO THAT MY MPA FOR MY MORTGAGE DOES NOT INCREASE!

Consumer complaint: I am lodging a complaint against Wells Fargo. I have tried to modify my loan with them for about three years. I never get follow up I 'm always playing phone tag and they are not helpful at all. This past Sumer they offered a workshop in XXXX NJ, At that time I met with an under writer and they told me they where going to get me into a better mortgage with a traditional loan and a lower interest rate. I was so excited and felt they where really going to help. My trial period began in XXXX but the payment went from XXXX to XXXX. 
I was shocked. They told me it was to get me caught up. A new payment amount will be lower when the trail period ends. To my shock, the new payment only when down XXXXDollars??? Now when trying to get answers there was little information they could offer. 
I stated to them they have to reduce my interest rate in order to get me an affordable payment. I stated I was contacting the CFPB and boy did their ears perk up! 
This was on XXXX/XXXX/15 that I received my new modification and also on XXXX I called them. 
Later that evening a received a call from a customer service rep. concerned about the conversation I had earlier that day. He told me he would get back to me within 5 business days. That never happened!! My paper work from the modification stated that they needthe modification signed and returned within XXXX business days or it could go null and void. 
On XXXX I left XXXX messages XXXX with XXXX XXXX my specialist and with XXXX XXXX XXXX from customer service. I never heard back. Knowing I had a dead line XXXX/XXXX/15. I sighed the modification and mailed it off. Today, XXXX/XXXX/15 I receive a phone call from XXXX. He started the conversation off my saying he had information regarding my loan. I though maybe he worked out a lower interest rate with the underwriter but during the phone call hestopped himself, as if he was reading something, and stated he JUST noticed I returned themodification paperwork and by signing and returning it that must mean I agree to the terms. 
I explained to him I had a deadline and was afraid that the modification would be voided. 
I stated I 'm not happy with my new terms. He got real squarely!!! 

I have been miss lead and miss treated be this bank. They think they helped me myreducing my interest rate from a XXXX to a XXXX rate. Really, that 's all they could do. I think they are really playing games. A friend told me about CFPB and said it was established to help consumers when they feel trapped and no where else to turn. I am going to hopefully be in this house for a long time and would like to pay a more reasonable payment. Being on permanent XXXX hinders our financial situation. I came down with XXXX and our medical bills are through the roof. Along with raising XXXX young children in this difficult financial time, we could use all the help we can.

Consumer complaint: I applied for a conventional 30yr fixed mortgage loan with Sebonic Financial in XXXX, NC which is a subsidiary of Cardinal Financial Company. I did not receive the correct Closing Disclosure until I was at closing. I was provided a preliminary disclosure, but it was not 3 business days in advance and it had significant errors ( over {$170000.00} wrong ) although the new mortgage rules require disclosure at least 3 business days in advance. I had to explain to the lending institution that a HUD is no longer provided by the closing attorney and spend countless emails and phone calls back and forth requesting they correct the closing disclosure and paperwork, but I had to sign incorrect paperwork at closing because it was never corrected appropriately.

Consumer complaint: When we applied for a home equity loan, our bank contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX to do a search. We were called by the bank and told that company said there are XXXX liens against us. I knew that was wrong so I called the courthouse and had copies of the judgements sent to me. It only took me one minute to see that the only thing that matched was my husband 's name. Birth date, address and SS # were all different. I called the XXXX XXXX XXXX company and asked if I could send them proof that these liens were not ours so they could correct their records. They told me no because I am not their client and that I would have to go to the bank and have them correct it. I asked how they could make XXXX such errors and a manager, XXXX XXXX, told me that all they do is match a name to a county. They do not check further unless their client ( in this case my bank or their underwriters ) requested it. So I went to the bank and the manager said they simply have us sign a form declaring that those liens are not ours. They do nothing to correct the error or remove those liens from our report. I asked her to help me find a way to correct this because we did not want our name connected to these offenses. She said she would pass our request on to the underwriters. The underwriters accepted the document we signed declaring the liens were not ours but were n't interested in clearing up the error. Why would any company be allowed to attached lien information based on name only? We live in a small town and there are XXXX or XXXX men that we know of with the same name as my husband, XXXX. I ca n't imagine how many there are in the whole county. The manager at XXXX suggested we were lucky there were only XXXX. That 's XXXX too many as far as I am concerned!! If I had not been such a good customer and well known in our bank, this information could easily have been used to deny us a loan. Someone should be responsible for correcting this but so far no one accepts or cares about it.

Consumer complaint: First source advantage keeps calling me at work eventhough I have told him not to. They call me on my cell multiple times a day. 

Company response: Company believes complaint is the result of an isolated error
Consumer complaint: I have recently been in discussion with a TCF rep and it was revealed that I have paid over {$1500.00} in fines since XXXX XXXX, 2015. No money was able to be returned to me. This is excessive and they way they post transactions is predatory, forcing some items to overdraw and then collecting on the menial transactions that happen after. I would like most ( if not all ) of my money back.

Consumer complaint: I have been fighting with Transunion for quite some time to get my credit report straight. Other than my open accounts i have applied for NO credit anywhere as my wife and i prepare to purchase our fist home. I have filed a complaint with the XXXX and there response what that people do n't need my permission to run my credit. This is inaccurate and these fraudulent inquiries are messing up what would be a good credit profile. All recent requests for my credit are fraudulent and i request that they be removed. You can see on my report the accounts that are open and in my name because i pay them monthly. However i have not seeked new credit. Please help me in getting transuion to remove these several inquiries off of my report that are fraudulent so that i may continue on the road of preparing to purchase my first home. As a Vet and XXXX it sickens me that i have to go through all these channels just to get my credit report accurate because the agencies refuse to do anything. All they do is call the creditor and say " did you get a request for credit '' and i assume they say yet and this makes it a valid inquiry? NO i do n't think so, because anyone could call and say they are me and if it is not me i do n't want to be penalized for it. Again my only complaint is that most all of the inquires on my report are wrong. Please help me get them removed.
