Complaint:
I am unwilling to accept your attempt to diminish the significance of my identity theft claim as a mere error or a misrepresentation of crucial information. It is important to note that you lack the authority to determine what qualifies as a material fact ; you neither serve as a judge nor a jury, nor do you possess the capacity to render such judgments. Your right to do so is unequivocally absent. My distress stems from the fact that I have become a victim of identity theft, a criminal act that has inflicted severe emotional and financial distress upon my life. Regrettably, the response, or lack thereof, from your bureau has demonstrated a startling indifference to the urgency and gravity of my situation. Allow me to be unequivocal : I will not tolerate the apathy and indifference that I have encountered thus far. As an identity theft victim, I have endured the consequences of unauthorized accounts and transactions that have tarnished my credit profile and placed my financial stability in jeopardy. These repercussions have been profound, affecting my ability to secure loans, mortgages, and even employment opportunities.

Complaint:
AD Astra has continued to make contact with me via mail after I have asked them to cease and desist any communication with me. This is a direct violation of the FDCPA. Communication is defined as conveying information regarding a debt directly or indirectly to any person through any medium. I never asked AD Astra to obtain copies of any contract or related documents and mail them to me, I have never asked for validation or verification of this alleged debt. 
This company is making an effort to collect off of an extension of credit by extortionate means by furnishing negative information to my credit report in an effort to coerce payment from me, 18 USC 894. My social security number was used in connection with this transaction and I am aware that my SSN belongs to the Social Security Administration. Anything obtained with that number is the obligation of the United States. Being that AD Astra is attempting to collect this alleged debt makes you guilty and in violation of the false claims act ( FCA ) 31 USC 3729-3733. In accordance with USC 15 1641, civil action can be brought against an assignee of a creditor. By AD Astra continuing to make false claims that I am obligated to pay a debt and ruining my credit, you will be held civilly liable for tarnishing my credit reputation. I have never signed any paperwork with AD Astra stating that I ever agreed to pay them anything. Whether this alleged debt was assigned to them or not does not make me liable to pay AD Astra for something I never agreed to pay them. This company has used my personal and private information and has furnished this to credit reporting agencies which they never had my consent, written or otherwise to do. I DID NOT AND DO NOT CONSENT to this company furnishing this information to my consumer report. This by definition is considered identity theft 18 USC 1028A. They are also using my personal identifying information to try to collect an extension of credit by reporting my stolen information to a credit reporting agency to receive payment for an account that I never had with them. This is fraudulent and unlawful in nature. Any continued negative reporting of this account will result in legal action in Federal Court. AD Astra has 15 days to delete the negative reporting or they will be sued for Defamation and for not complying with the FDCPA or FCRA. In addition, I will also be reporting this company to the FTC for aggravated identity theft and fraud.

Company: CARDINAL FINANCIAL COMPANY, LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint:
Our refinance opened on XX/XX/2021. We were told that we locked in a rate of XXXX. We submitted all requested documents. We began to receive circular requests from Cardinal Financial via XXXX with " new to-dos. '' The same questions continued to be asked, to which we responded, but new to-dos continued to be issued. For example, I do not have a W-2 as a self-employed individual, but I continued to be asked for my W-2 despite telling Cardinal Financial I do not receive a W-2.

We grew concerned as several months passed. Each time we checked in, a new to-do would be issued with more questions. It was like quicksand.

In the meantime, the company sent an appraiser who billed us directly for {$1000.00}.

I wonder if Cardinal had any intention of actually closing this loan, and wonder if they have an arrangement with their appraiser to generate fees and bill unsuspecting applicants. We were misled by Cardinal, and they now tell us that it is our fault for not turning in documents in a timely manner ( which is false ). We are now at the end of May, nearly four months after we opened this refinance, and we have no closing in sight. Meanwhile, we have missed out on the low rates that we could have gotten had we used a different company, costing us hundreds of dollars per month, and {$140000.00} over the life of the loan.
