Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed

Complaint:
I have contacted KOHLS regarding their negative reporting on my credit reports. This account was paid off and I was told it would be removed from my credit reports and it never was. When I reached out to KOHLS they sent me a letter saying they do not have this agreement on file because the " retention period has passed ''. They also claim to not be able to find my information in their systems without me providing them with the account number which I no longer know. This is unfair to me as a consumer and I would like for them to hold up their end of the deal that was made years ago. This account shows that is has a zero balance but it still shows up as a charge off/collection on my reports, that has a negative impact on my reports.

Re : SS # : XXXX Good afternoon : I have reviewed my credit file and there are several discrepancies that need to be updated immediately beginning with my XXXX XXXX- there 5 accounts that show " potentially negative '' with a XX/XX/XXXX date that I am certain have been hacked along with several others that show this date. Now, these accounts have never been more than " in good standing ''. I called XXXX today and they indicated they have never changed the status of my accounts so I am asking that this information be changed to report correctly. 

XXXX account is a third party collection agency. The original account is almost 25 years old ( XXXX ). Please remove it immediately. 

XXXX XXXX - ( XXXX  XXXX ) was included in a past bankruptcy and should not be on my credit file at all. 

XXXX IS A SCAM -- REMOVE IT NOW. 

Lastly, the credit bureaus are not reporting accurate information as I received an email stating my credit XXXX score increased and within an hour Experian aimed back that it changed. This has been going for months sometimes the score drops more th. XXXX points. How? Is that possible when I've never seen more than XXXX point increase. Not just experian... XXXX and XXXX too. 


If you have any questions, please contact me at XXXX. Furthermore, if these requests require disputes -- I am disputing them and they should be resolved in a timely manner.

I Requested a Covid Forbearance in XX/XX/XXXX. I ended my forbearance in XX/XX/XXXX and applied for a loan mod. The bank approved my loan mod with lower payments and completed the partial claim to place a portion of my balance to the end of the loan per FHA guidelines.I had a {$1000.00} in suspense. When they approved me for the loan mod they told me I had to pay ( 3 ) trial mod payments and since I had {$1000.00} in suspense it could be used towards my first mod payment. I was dealing with a manager XXXX who was kind enough to help me get everything set up. She told me my first mod payment would be {$1400.00} but they were using the {$1000.00} already in my suspense bucket so all I had to pay was {$420.00} which I paid. Since then I paid all of my trial mod payments and my XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX mortgage payment. As of today they still have not processed my loan mod in their system I can not make my payments online I do not have online access and they have all my payments in the suspense bucket.

Something has to be done one hand does not know what the other hand is doing and I am tired of being harassed. please help me or do I need an attorney

Sub-product: Vehicle loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint:
I had a account with Honda Financial that was paid off in XXXX of this year. Apparently there were additional amounts owed on the loan from previous late fees. My automatic payment went out for the last payment and cleared. By the time that I was able to cover the extra $ XXXX in old late fees my payment posted 3 days over the 30 day limit. They reported TWO 30 day lates that are showing on my credit and it has made it impossible to close escrow on the house that we have in escrow to buy.

Thank you, XXXX

Complaint:
Since 2010, we have submitted several applications to Bank of America for refinance or modification of our 30 Year Conversion Option ARM. We are current on our payments and have excellent credit. Bank of America has provided excuse after excuse concerning our documentation and the rejection of our application. To no avail, we have solicited professionals on our behalf to query, complete and submit our documents to Bank of America. Right now, we have only XXXX ( out of XXXX ) ARM options available, i.e. the 15 year or minimum. We can not afford the $ XXXX/month 15 yr option, therefore we pay the minimum $ XXXX/month. We have in essence a negative amortization loan with a balance of {$310000.00}. Our payments do not include taxes and insurance. We are debt free except for our home. This year, we will be on a fixed income and it will be a financial hardship should we continue in the future with this obsolete XXXX option ARM mortgage plan. We want Bank of America to give us a reduction in principal and payment, fixed mortgage relief. Bank of America has all the information ( XXXX yrs ) at there disposal to make our request a reality.
