Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NY
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
On XXXX i called the lender to request a payoff statement for my HELOC loan to be faxed to my attorney. I provided my attorney fax number. The rep I spoke with stated that the payoff statement would be faxed to my attorney in 2-3 business days. It should be noted that I had previously requested a pay off statement from the lender on XXXX and this was received by my attorney on or about XXXX On XXXX i received an email from my attorney that they had not received the payoff statement at XXXX on XXXX I called the lender and spoke with representative XXXX in the loan servicing department. XXXX stated that the payoff statement request was rejected because the attorney was not an approved coop attorney. XXXX transferred me to supervisor XXXX in the loan servicing department. XXXX confirmed that the payoff request did not process because the request did not come from an approved coop attorney. XXXX confirmed the fax number on the XXXX request was XXXX, XXXX confirmed the fax number on the XXXX request was XXXX and the XXXX requested was faxed on XXXX. XXXX confirmed that the request came from me ( the borrower ) on XXXX and on XXXX. First one was completed and second one was denied but both requests were exactly the same. XXXX submitted an urgent payoff request to the payoff department manager to ask why the XXXX was not completed or to rush this request out today. XXXX stated that the payoff department XXXX has a standard turnaround time of 2 hours for an urgent payoff request. The payoff department replied to XXXX stating that they can only accept a payoff request from an approved attorney for a coop. XXXX confirmed that the payoff department is not able to accept payoff requests from the borrower directly and that the prior payoff statement was issued in error. XXXX stated that the payoff department advised that the borrower should already be aware that payoff requests must come from an approved coop attorney. XXXX confirmed that all of the lenders calls are recorded. XXXX provided his contact information. XXXX stated that the is able to speak with my attorney directly with my verbal approval and the verbal approval is good for 24 hours. I provided my verbal approval to speak with my attorney and/or her assistant. 


I believe the lender is intentionally delaying my payoff statement in an effort to extend the length of my loan so they can collect more interest. If this was an error the lender should accept responsibility and refund the interest due since the date of the error.

Complaint:
I am submitting this complaint against Experian, XXXX, and XXXX credit bureau regarding the hard inquires on my credit within the last couple of years. I am submitting this complaint because I have contacted all three credit bureaus dispute department via telephone several times to dispute hard inquires that do not belong to me, nor did I authorize these companies to review my credit report. I have disputed the hard inquires on the website on my account. Nothing gets processed or resolved, I receive dispute resolution within hours after filing the dispute online. On the Experian website under disputes on the members account, it states " Inquiries can't be disputed online. If you believe an inquiry is the result of identity theft, contact us at XXXX. '' I have attempted to resolve this matter several times by calling the disputes department and I was advised that members are not allowed to remove hard inquires on credit reports. All hard inquires stay on the credit report for two years. I am submitting this complaint because there are hard inquires on my credit report that I did not authorize nor belong to me.

Complaint:
This is my Fourth attempt to receive from you the requested original signed agreement of a disputed 8-year old account [ XXXX XXXX ], letter dated XX/XX/2018. It is my understanding that I have a right to see the original signed documents of this accountnot statements, letters from the creditor or any other document that is not the signed agreement between me and the creditor ; only that document can prove fraud or ownership. 
In addition, I have repeatedly asked for this information to be mailed to my correct address as stated above. I have yet to receive any of what I have asked for, in previous communications I have proven my New York address of nearly 20 years. 
Based on several credit-pulls across all the bureaus, at least two creditorsit appears XXXX is oneis updating their accounts to mirror present day profiles in an effort to legitimize their claims, the second creditor has already been removed. The type of credit cards that are said to be mine are cards that earn frequent flyer miles and/or cash back. The very first card like those I applied for, received, and owned is my XXXX XXXX card 2-years ago. Any creditor claiming that I owned any such card more than two years ago and is NOT XXXX ; is creating and/or updating accounts to reflect my very recent credit profile. Creditors engaged in this type of behavior convey the fact that they did not meet the legal requirements for verification. 
As this is my fourth attempt I will be submitting another grievance to the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection/ FTC-FCRA, to lay the groundwork for later legal actionif necessary. All I want is the original signed agreementthe signature, handwriting, and information entered can easily prove fraud or ownership. 
My next step will have to be to seek legal representation on this matter. Please attain the requested documents or remove this account and send an updated copy of my credit report and all responses to my request to the above addressthe only accurate address, thank you.

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  there were two atm transactions for {$63.00} at an atm in XXXX XXXX XXXX. Having never been there I filed a claim with the bank ( Wells Fargo ). Wells Fargo investigated the transaction and wrote me a letter telling me they determined either myself or someone with my permission had used the atm in XXXX. I immediately called and asked how they had that determination and they said the atm showed that the card was used and therefore it had to be. I asked them to explain how that happened when I was with my card in XXXX XXXX  and they couldnt provide that information. Obviously if this can happen once it can happen again with a much larger sum of money and since the bank wont remedy this situation Im not sure what to do next.
