Complaint:
I've called the credit bureaus, sent certified letters, fax, uploaded documents to no avail. I've been a victim of identity theft. I apply for a small line of credit and was denied, i received my report and noticed several inaccurate accounts, names that aren't mine, and accounts that flat our weren't mine either. I took the proper steps to secure my info, froze accounts to my reports as well as adding a fraud alert. I do recall being informed my XXXX that my license, ssn, and a credit card that i had on file for one of their credit monitoring products that i has years ago had been compromised. Then i also remember that i was on of the millions of South Carolina residents that were affected by the SC Tax breach in 2012, needless to say my info was probably all over the place. Knowing all this i contacted each CRA for an investigation, i was usually on the phone with a representative from an outsourced location in XXXX or the XXXX, which i dont understand why, when i live in the USA, and i know other countries have access to my information as well. The CRA 's haven't responded with anything related to a proper investigation, what i have received was computer generated letters saying that the alleged accounts have been verified.

Company: LAKEVIEW LOAN SERVICING, LLC
State: AL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
My mortgage was transferred from XXXX to Lakeview several months ago. Now, all of a sudden, after I am no longer employed Lakeview starts tacking on additional fees that they claim came from the previous company. If that is so, why wait so long to add the fees to the account. The representative that I spoke with on XX/XX/XXXX did not even know what it was. She had to research & try to make it be my responsibility to research it. How is it my responsibility when it was not my responsibility when the loan was transferred. I was not asked my opinion then, but thats neither here nor there. It seems unfair & deceptive a violation of UDAAP fir them to just decide to tack on additional fees after months of me paying my loan with them. The representative advised that the fees are not hurting me, but they are if I am getting charged interest. Furthermore, their automated system is also misleading. I processed my regular monthly payment on XX/XX/XXXX. The automated system told me when they had received my last payment & what I was due for XXXX. I call back today after processing the payment on XX/XX/XXXX which should have gone for XXXX, only to find out that I still owe for XXXX. The young lady today XXXX, advised that my previous payment went toward principal only, which I did not advise, neither did their system advise or the previous representative that I spoke with on XX/XX/XXXX. It just seems does not seem right.

Company: Ditech Financial LLC
State: NY
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Other type of mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
I wrote a letter in XX/XX/2018 to Ditech requesting a modification of my mortgage for a few months. In XX/XX/2018 I was approved for interest only payments which I paid. In XXXX I was told that Ditech reversed their decision. I tried calling several times to find out about this change in the decision and asked to speak with a manager. Instead I was only referred to customer service reps. The company provided no last names of employees and has no voicemails. In addition, are these customer service reps qualified to make decisions on these important matters? I then received a refinance package that I did not request. This would would allow Ditech to charge additional fees. I believe this company is a predatory lender. I reported this to the South Dakota Dept. of Labor and Regulation/division of banking. They forwarded my complaint to Ditech but I have heard nothing to date about this matter. I have had my house on the market since XX/XX/2018. My current tenants have not paid rent and I need time to vett new tenants, hence the request for a modification for a few months. Refinancing is not appropriate for me at present but this is the only option that was offered so that more fees can be collected.

I have items passed on that should be taken out or blocked. Per FCRA segment 605, Credit Bureaus are expected to eliminate any records recorded on an ID THEFT REPORT. I've proactively remembered this report from a past letter and I am including it once more. I've educated my lawyer regarding my aims and they are eager to consider that Credit Bureaus are responsible for their tenacious rebelliousness.

Complaint:
XXXX has sent me to collection 3 times. Most recently XX/XX/XXXX I was a full time salary employee until XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX is claiming overpayment which is incorrect. 

I thought this was taken care of XX/XX/XXXX when I emailed XXXX XXXX with collection agency. 

I called the school directly after the initial dispute of overpayment to try to clarify with little communication with HR. 

The forms sent to collection by XXXX are fraudulent I do not believe they are the originals. I see on the bottom of pages 16 and 17 " * original lost in mail '' The signature is mine on page 16 and 17 but none of the other writing on it is mine. 
It also does not make sense that I would sign and date it for XX/XX/XXXX and it would be sent to payroll on XX/XX/XXXX Page 16 and 17 also both are completed with " sick leave '' and " leave without pay '' marked however I do not recognize this writing- I DID NOT FILL THAT OUT. 

was working during the time paid and was paid appropriately. I The originals were misplaced by XXXX and completed by someone else, NOT MYSELF. Not sure how they can legally support this. 

I am tired of this harassment and plan to seek out legal assistance to resolve this matter.
