Consumer complaint received 2019-01-09
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint:
The issue is that Equifax has no record of me. ( I was able to get valid credit reports from all other credit bureau such as XXXX and XXXX. ) In XX/XX/2018, I was trying to apply for mortgage, and my lender told me that someone else showed up on my Equifax credit report. That person has a different name, different SSN and different birthday from me. Therefore the Equifax credit report was clearly wrong and can not be used to apply for mortgage. 

I called Equifax immediately and I was told that they could not locate my record using my SSN therefore its system somehow generated a wrong report instead. I was told to fax my SSN copy and other materials so that they could look into it. 

I sent all the information immediately the day after ( around mid XX/XX/2018 ). After a few days, I called Equifax to check whether they received it. I was told that I needed to wait for 10 business days before they could tell me whether they received it. 

After 10 days, I called again, and was told that they did not receive it and all I could do was to fax everything again. I was really upset but I did fax everything again on the next day ( around beginning XX/XX/2018 ) After 10 days, I called again and was told that they still did not receive it. I validated the fax number and confirmed that I was using the correct one both times. I was told to wait for a month because it would take them a month 's time to check if they receive my documents. 

In the meantime, I called my credit card companies ( XXXX and XXXX ), and both companies confirmed that they have always been sending my credit information to credit bureau including Equifax. This matches the fact that I can get correct credit reports from all other credit bureau. 

I waited a month and received their reply by mail. However, in the mail, I was referred to using the wrong name ( the one showed up incorrectly in my report ). They told me that they could not locate my credit report and asked me to fax everything again. It has been over a month and no progress was made. 

At this point I am really frustrated and do not know what else I can do to fix my credit report in Equifax.

Complaint:
I sent letters out to all XXXX credit bureaus regarding items on my credit report that are not accurate which is a FCRA violation and you must abide by the law. All information I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. I am the one sending the letters and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair or 3rd party. I know this is a violation of my rights due to the bureaus not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I just want these accounts to be removed from my credit report immediately or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I am trying to purchase a home soon and these negative items are holding my score back.

Seriously, it's been months since I investigated my credit report, and I realized that some of the information was still erroneous. The 3 credit bureaus are required to authenticate these items under Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ). ( A ).

Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: MI
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX an insurance claim had to be filed due to water damage caused by the dishwasher. When the insurance claim was filed, the mortgage was being serviced by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and was in a current status. 

As of XX/XX/XXXX the loan servicing was transferred to Mr. Cooper. Prior to the service transfer an insurance claim settlement had been approved and a check was issued dated XX/XX/XXXX. The check was made payable to us ( borrowers ), a third party adjuster, and the lender ( XXXX XXXX Mortgage ). 

Due to the loan being transferred to Mr. Cooper on XX/XX/XXXX the insurance company had to re-issue a new check to reflect the new lender. 

The insurance company re-sent a new check, dated XX/XX/XXXX and made payable to us ( the borrowers ) and lender ( Nationstar ). 

On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Mr. Cooper to obtain instructions on how to send and obtain the lenders endorsement. I was transferred to the insurance/loss draft department and was told that an escalation needed to be opened due to the loan being serviced by a previous servicer when the claim was initially opened. Additionally, I was told that the previous servicing file/loan history could not be reviewed in their system. 

XX/XX/XXXX, follow-up phone call was made to Mr. Cooper. I was told the request was still being reviewed by the legal department because of the loan being previously serviced by another company. I was again told that the prior servicing history could not be viewed. When I asked the agent why, he basically told me that their system had not yet been updated and said that in a perfect world it should be. 

At this point I do not understand why it is so difficult to get instructions on how to send a check to get endorsed and feel as though this company is in violation of the servicing rule regarding mortgage transfers.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, account XXXX XXXX ( Number XXXX, Reference # XXXX ) has violated my rights. 

I am writing to report a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by the Agencies ( TRANSUNION, XXXX XXXX ), account number XXXX Reference # XXXX company XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and the original creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX. As of XX/XX/, the reported amount owed is {$3000.00} and the status is listed as a collection account. 

Under the FCRA, my rights to privacy and control over the presentation of my credit information are clearly described and protected. Specifically, I would like to draw attention to two sections of the FCRA that have been violated : 1. 15 USC 1681 Section 602 ( a ) - Right to Privacy : This section explicitly states my right to privacy regarding the information contained in my credit reports. It protects against unauthorized disclosure of my personal financial data and emphasizes the importance of maintaining the confidentiality of this information. 

2. 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) - Written instructions requirement : This section requires that a consumer reporting agency, such as TRANSUNIONXXXX, can not provide information about my account without my explicit written instructions. This provision underscores the importance of obtaining my written consent before disclosing any account-related data. 

Despite the clear provisions of the FCRA, TRANSUNIONXXXX has failed to comply with these requirements, resulting in a violation of my rights. They have disclosed information related to my account ( XXXX Reference # XXXX company XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and the original creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX ) ; without obtaining my written consent, thereby violating my privacy and control over my credit information.
