Consumer complaint: In 2010 I acquired a Macy 's store card. A year or so later, I was informed that, because of my excellent credit, it was being automatically converted to a Macy 's American Express card. I have used it only for purchases at Macy 's and at XXXX. Today I received a notice from my credit monitoring service that I had exceeded the credit limit on my card. I checked my most recent statement and saw that the credit limit is {$2000.00} -- far above the {$340.00} balance from XXXX charges. I telephoned the customer service number on my Macy 's card statement and was told that it is a " XXXX in XXXX '' card. The {$2000.00} limit applies only to purchases at the store. Outside purchases are governed by a {$300.00} credit limit. I then phoned the XXXX customer service number and was told the same thing. I am furious and feel that this is deceptive. If there must be a discrepancy in the credit limits, that should be stated clearly on every statement. Remaining credit for Macy 's purchases : $ XXX.XXRemaining credit for other purchases : $ XXXX. 
I intend to cancel the card after paying the outstanding balance, but wanted to warn others about this practice.

Consumer complaint: I tried to utilize the governments " Loan modification '' program with GreenTree. I kept giving them the same documents, when asked for, without any resolution. They just kept " stringing '' me along! I then tried to sell my farm but the market dropped and I was in an upside down mtg. I then tried for a short sale & had offers. My XXXX mtg company accepted the offers however my XXXX mtg, GT, refused to accept the offers. Because of them I had to allow the XXXX mtg to foreclose. Now 4 years later GT is suing me for the full XXXX mtg loan plus interest and collection/court fees.

Consumer complaint: Transunion has erroneously deleted my entire credit history and although Transunion has on several occasions said the matter would be resolved within 2-3 business days or 3-5 business days ( depending on which representative I spoke to ), the matter still is not resolved over one month later. I was pressured into purchasing their credit monitoring program which I continue to pay for although my credit score and credit history remains inaccurate over 30 days later. I was told to fax a copy of my license, social security card and utility bill and that the credit information would be immediately re-entered by the " special handling department/maintenance department '' no later than 2-3 business days. This was over two weeks ago! The last person I spoke with was the supervisor is said that although Transunion promises a quick resolution, the process of re-entering is a timely XXXX and that I just need to give them time. Unfortunately, I do not feel this response is adequate. It is disheartening to know that a company such as Transunion that is trusted with being the record keeper of such critical information is unable to accurately maintain said records. Their behavior is unconscionable, consumers are held at their mercy, our livelihood often depends on credit and unfortunately we do not have the ability to wait several months for Transunion to rectify their erroneous credit reporting. Any assistance in having my credit history accurately restored would be greatly appreciated.

Consumer complaint: There is a judgment on my Experian credit report that belongs to my father, and I have no association with the debt whatsoever. We have called the General Sessions office, and they do not have any information of mine associated with the judgment. However, when I disputed the judgment, Experian did not remove it and verified it as mine. The judgment is not showing up on any other credit reports because it does not belong to me, and I just want Experian to remove the incorrect information from my report.

Consumer complaint: VISA credit card through Bank Of America -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -I refuse to use a DEBIT card. What I have chosen to do is pay an extra amount, over and above the XXXX balance of my VISA card, just in the event that I am hospitalized and therefore unable to pay my bills in a timely fashion. 

On XXXX XXXX, 2015, I deposited an extra {$170.00} into my VISA account, which is {$170.00} over my balance of XXXX ( {$0.00} ). This obviously means that I have a CREDIT in the amount of {$170.00} remaining to charge items. 

On XXXX XXXX, 2015, Bank Of America transferred (??? ) this money to what they have chosen to label " CREDIT BALANCE REFUND DEBIT '', and they labeled this as " FEES ''. 

Upon noticing this on XXXX XXXX, 2015, I called them, and was told by a very courteous and understanding representative, that this is a policy!!!!! SINCE WHEN????? In lieu of a DEBIT card, I place additional funds into my VISA account in order to cover those spontaneous purchases I make. I was told by the representative that Bank Of America is sending me a check!!! WOW!!!!! I thought internet banking was supposed to eliminate " snail mail ''. Why could they not simply transfer the money back to my checking account??? 

I know the banks just love those of us that pay our credit card bill in full ( LOL!!! ). It must be fabulous to know that I have extra funds on my credit card, therefore partially eliminating the chance that my payment will be late!!! Hey, no interest money paid to the bank!!! 

CAPITOLISM ... ... ... .make that money!!!!!!!!!!

Consumer complaint: I received a letter in the mail that my credit limit had been reduced. Macy Department Store is reducing peoples credit, the reason is they say there system automatically reviews the account every XXXX and it 's based on information they receive from XXXX every month.

Consumer complaint: I am submitting a complaint in regards to a background check performed by Sterling Infosystems. I had recently applied for employement with XXXX for a warehouse job in thier XXXX California location. Staff Management/XXXX is the contracted company used for hiring process. I qualified for every step in the process until the background check. Sterling Infosystems is also contracted to do the background check. I recieved an email and regular mail copy of the background check and the " Notice of Adverse Action '', disqualifying me for employement. The " Criminal Background Check '' information was correct. The problem was that this information was not only misinterperated but due to the in ability to read and understand the court doc info the agency or Staffing company both tagged the information as " High Risk ''. The court dcoument were transcribed, are not an Official Signed copy of the original court docs. Sterling Infosystems claims that there are XXXX ( XXXX ) seperate charges of a XXXX ( c ) XXXX, that is incorrect. The information shows XXXX Docket/case numbers which represent " Transfer of Juricdiction '' from XXXX California to XXXX California. This is due to my moving to another county. The Incidents are the same within 1 day, again typo error. In the " Additional Information '' field you see the transfer to XXXX XXXX but is the same case/charge. Both Sterling Infosystem and StaffManagement XXXX were made aware of this problem vis a phone call using XXXX XXXX of Staff Management and XXXX from Sterling Infosytems on Thursday XXXX XXXX. I have not had any further contacts with Sterling or XXXX regarding this issue. I am troubled that the background check company was neglegent/incompitent in reading the court document and risking my employment with XXXX. Once again the information on criminal background check is correct but was not interpreted correctly by said professionals. I want this claim investigated and all parties made responsiable for this crime in it self, fraud claims, to correct thier said expert positions in background checks. Same goes for Staffing ManagementXXXX, they too did the same or may seek damages for violations to FCRA.

Consumer complaint: In XXXX of XXXX a citation was attempted to be served to XXXX XXXX XXXX, my mother, and again in XXXX XXXX - the citation is not signed but the officer showed it was served ( with only XXXX attempts instead of the required XXXX prior to leaving citation on the door - I am assuming because XXXX was unable to answer the door ). The law firm filing the lawsuit was XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, Texas XXXX. No further action was taken and in XXXX several attorneys working for the above law firm left that firm and set up an operation under Jenkins, Waggins and Young law firm also located in XXXX and a copy of their judgement is provided for address and contact information. Their phone number is XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX is " the '' person that talks to people there. There was no action taken on the original suite from XXXX XXXX up until around XXXX XXXX wherein the new law firm represented that they were authorized to file a judgement and that they were representing the law firm under the original citation ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ) even though they were not according to that law firm and in addition, they filed without giving notice to the estate of XXXX XXXX XXXX whom had died almost 19 months prior to their action to file for judgement. I believe that the timeline for filing motions for any debts is within XXXX year of the time of death. There was no notification to the estate of the debt and there was no probate or administration for the estate as the value of the estate is none. The collection efforts are at best deceptive and unfair - there was - these folks were not the people who issued the suit originally and are attempting to collect on an old citation that the original debt collector says they no longer are working. The firm did not serve any additional citation or notification to the address or to the estate or even individual prior to the judgement action - so there was no opportunity to validate or defend the debt. And there are possible leches concern, statute of limitations on the suit. In addition, the address on the citation and judgement is incorrect, they filed that judgement action after the XXXX year timeline allowed for collection of the debt AND attempts to call and discuss the situation with them has not been received well. They refuse to discuss the situation with me but spend a great deal of time gathering data.

Consumer complaint: This is an update to Case : XXXX and XXXXCourt date was XXXX XXXX. Attorney XXXX XXXX informed me that they have done all they were obligated to do. While he agrees that this has been going on a long time, they are not obligated to notify me since I disputed the debt. XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX notified me of the debt collection via a letter dated XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. In that letter I was NOT informed of the original creditor. XXXX, XXXX and XXXX did not notify me of the original creditor until a letter dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX. In addition, as of today 's date XXXX, XXXX and XXXX still have not provided ALL of the requested information in my fax to them dated XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. 
After Attorney XXXX XXXX told me that they have no obligation to notify me and that they have done all that they are obligated to do, I asked him what where my options. He advised me to pay a lump sum on the debt or set up installment payments. As it was apparent that XXXX XXXX, as has been done before by XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, was attempting to side step the law, I asked for a continuance of the case so that I can hire an attorney. That date is now scheduled for XXXX XXXX. 

I have been advised that based on what has occurred to file complaints with the State Bar of Georgia against XXXX, XXXX and XXXX and Attorney XXXX XXXX as well as filing complaints against MSW Capital with the Governor 's Office of Consumer Protection and Federal Trade Commission. Those complaints will be completed this week. Copies of CFPB complaints will be included in the new complaints.

Consumer complaint: I was in a XXXX in XXXX 2013, owned by XXXX XXXX, they own most of them. During that stay, I was cursed at by the Psychiatrist, called a XXXX XXXX, who the XXXX do you think you XXXX are etc. told by the therapist I had to work on childhood issues, not the XXXX from the XXXX I had in XXXX 2013 that year. I, timely, refuted the co-insurance with XXXX, I timely disputed my treatment with UHS on site, I timely complained to the TX Insurance Fraud Board, the Medical Malpractice Board, etc. The coinsurance which is over the normal price for that particular time, remains a " closed '' account on my Credit Report. I have letters stating that XXXX was looking in to the problem and finally after two years of complaining got word back they would not remove the debt of some {$1400.00} because my XXXX XXXX stated it was owed. XXXX would not hear me, the doctors and therapists are still working there. No one cares and my credit report shows a despicable HIPAA violatoin by stating the XXXX XXXX name. The account is closed and it should be off my credit report. I have tried working with XXXX XXXX and they still refuse to, XXXX and XXXX to remove the damaging items. And XXXX still treats people like XXXX, who have XXXX problems.

Consumer complaint: We had an XXXX loan on our house. The 20 % loan, XXXX mortgage, was with BOA, Bank Of America. It was for a term of 10 years, but I wanted to accelerate the payments since it was such a small monthly payment. Every month I would pay XXXX to XXXX times the monthly payment expecting that they would apply the excess to principal. No, they DID NOT apply the excess to principal, they applied it to the coming payments. IE if I had made triple payments in XXXX, I would n't have had another due until XXXX. I called them, told them this was incorrect and their response was, " fine, we 'll fix this. Please write FOR PRINCIPAL ONLY '' on all payments in excess of your original amount. Fine, lesson learned. The next month I wrote XXXX checks, XXXX for the amount of the XXXX mortgage and XXXX clearly marked PRINCIPAL ONLY for XXXX times the mortgage amount. The same thing happened, they applied it to the coming months payments. I again contacted them and was told that it would be taken care of. Well, this time they took three months of payments out and applied this to principal, thus putting me late for the current month 's payment. At the end of XXXX years I had a ream of notes and NO patience left with BOA. they had " misapplied '' every XXXX OVERPAYMENT on my part to their benefit. If they did this with my payments I know they were doing the same thing with everyone else 's thus resulting in some heavy interest on their side. After two or three years of constantly fighting with them about this issue, and NEVER being able to reach the same person to fix it, I told my husband that we had to pay it off in full or I was going to have a breakdown. We did pay it and I was so happy ... until we refinanced and our primary loan was sold to BOA. It seems that the " misapplication '' of funds has stopped ( I still pay more than the original loan so that the principal can be paid in an accelerated fashion ) but I check every month because I ca n't trust them to do the right thing. I hate BOA from the depths of my soul and if I had my way there would be many bankers in jail.

Consumer complaint: I have a listing on my credit report with all XXXX bureaus for a collection company called XXXX. I have disputed this account with them for the past 3 years and they continue to report to the credit bureaus that the information is correct. I have contacted them myself several times requesting that they provide me copies of all bills and a breakdown of what is owed. I believe that they have combined a XXXX Gas and Electric bill an reporting it as the same bill. The problem is each account has a different last payment received date and they are reporting inaccurate data. I have also filed a complaint with the attorney generals office on this.

Consumer complaint: A credit card I have no knowledge of is showing on my credit report as delinquent and charged off. I disputed the credit card with both XXXX and XXXX credit reporting agency and got a response saying that the card is charged off and would be on my credit report for 7 years. I did not apply, use, pay or have knowledge of this debt. Not sure who did this. There was a history of good payment history as to why I did not know of its existence until whomever stop paying and I started getting negative letters when applying for other credit.
