Complaint:
We paid our account in full with XXXX XXXX and closed the account. We were assured the account was closed. They lied and fraudulently left the account open.

Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
I have been disputing 2 different accounts that I feel are showing up on my credit report in error and have not received a response from the credit bureaus. I have sent several letters to the credit bureaus to investigate these accounts. I started this process on XX/XX/XXXX initially to get this erroneous information removed from my credit report as it is inflicting serious damage to my score. I received a response from that dispute. However, I sent another letter to themXX/XX/21 and XX/XX/21 and received no response. I feel like my requests are being ignored and a proper investigation has not been given. There are clearly errors that I have pointed out in the letters that I have sent. It is my right to have my credit report present accurately and without errors. In addition to that, I have also been requesting that my personal information be updated. I have requested this several times. I do not want several variations of my name appearing on my credit report or several different addresses. I have expressed how my name needs to appear across all 3 credit bureaus and my current address and for good reason. With identity theft at an all time high, I think this is very necessary to help to reduce the chances of this happening to me. I feel like my rights are being violated and I want these issues to be fixed immediately.

State: NJ
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
I am a XXXX XXXXXXXX that work for the state of New Jersey during the entire pandemic at a residential home for the Developmentally Delayed. I was forced to apply for forbearance during the COVID 19 crisis due to decrease in work hours from my part-time job. When I finally was able to start paying my mortgage due to increase in work hours, I sent a payment to my mortgage company 's loan servicer Specialized Loan Services on XX/XX/2021 and the amount was returned I was told they need the entire 6 months paid. I did not have the amount and requested to refinance. They told me that they were not a refinancing company and I had to find one on my own, which I did. However the process took a while but I was able to pay the entire amount owed in order to get the lower interest rate with the refinancing. 

I am XXXX years old, planning retirement and want to down size but I can not get a lender to pre-approve me as Specialized Loan servicing has recorded that period of arranging a new refinancing company to take the loan over as credit default, thus preventing me from getting a home that I can afford when I retire. 

Please help me to get the credit demerit deleted. I will highly appreciate that.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, I went to the emergency room for treatment. The billing went to the VA for payment. The VA didn't pay and I didn't have the funds to pay so the bill went to collection. 

Then on XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from the VA that said the reason they didn't pay was a mistake and after a court case was filed and as a result the statute, 38 U.S.C. 1725, determined the VA was in error and so the VA said resubmit the claim. 

I've included a copy of this letter. When I contacted the hospital they said since the debt was so old they already wrote it off and sold the debt to the collection agency. 

After attempts to get the agency to remove the debt from my credit report they still haven't done anything to remove the debt ( s ).

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX has done everything since suing me and having to withdraw it. I have no taxable income so they couldn't get any money out of me after I lost everything going into forced retirement. This is yet another violation. These two XXXX XXXX cards, one with a balance of {$8300.00} and another card with a balance of {$3400.00} are both charged off accounts. This is inaccurate reporting. Secondly, both are reporting as " open '' on my XXXX report and on my Myfico report. Both are violations of my rights.

Complaint:
15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) clearly states that transactions between the consumer and the Person/Corporation making the report is NOT included on the consumer reports. Yet Experian is reporting this information.. The reporting of excluded information pursuant to 15USC 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) on a consumer report is a clear violation of Metro2 compliance. Provide me with the Metro2 compliance disclosure on reporting transactions to a consumer reporting agency. I need the transactions reporting as late, collection/charge-off status and any other derogatory information deleted from my consumer reports effective immediately. Before you think to reply that this account has been " validated ', let 's be clear that I am not asking you to validate or verify anything. So please do not respond by telling me that as a tactic to waste my valuable time. Some of the negative accounts have been placed in Collection/Charge-Off Status WITHOUT mailing me a copy of IRS form 1099-C Cancellation of Debt. Experian and the creditors reporting collections/Charge-Offs, late payments/other derogatory information in my consumer reports are in violation of 26 USC ss 6050P Returns Relating to the Cancellation of Indebtedness By Certain Entities. If this derogatory account information is not deleted from my consumer reports within 30 days, I will be forced to officially file IRS form 3949A : Information Referral AND IRS form 211 : Application For Award For Original Information Overview with the Internal Revenue Service against ALL entities involved.

This is XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself, and to inform you that there is no third party involved in the process. I believe I am a victim of identity theft. Due to the Pandemic, we have been facing a lot of problems in terms of financial, emotional, and physical aspects. Also, I have been hearing a lot of recent news that the Bureau is having data and system issues. I disputed the fraudulent information from my credit report. I have no idea how the theft took place. I also have no knowledge of any suspects. I did not receive any money, goods, or services as a result of identity theft. I have done many attempts to reach out to the Equifax Credit Bureau, but they failed to give me any results or feedbacks about this concern. Finally, there is no name associated with this file & needs to be deleted due to inaccurate info. Please investigate and remove it from my personal credit file. Thank you.
