Consumer complaint received 2023-05-08
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: TX
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
Wells Fargo bought my mortgage for my condominium. My mortgage is not supposed to have an escrow account, yet they are charging me for escrow, but they are not paying for my taxes, or insurance, or Condo Association Dues. I pay them myself. Last year I had a lot of trouble getting my flood insurance renewed for my condominium. So, Wells Fargo started sending me threatening letters and charging me an exhorbitant amount for insurance. I have since been able to get my own policy. I have paid back Wells Fargo for the lapsed time of my coverage, yet they are insisting to continue to charge me for escrow, without paying any bills with escrow money. I have contacted Wells Fargo twice in consecutive months after I receive my statement. Last month they assured me that the matter was resolved, but then they kept adding escrow charges to my non-escrow mortgage.

My initial fraud alert has been expired for XXXX  days now and I can not renew it using my online account, despite it being shown as expired. My only available option online is a XXXX fraud alert or a military fraud alert ... but not an initial fraud alert. Also, earlier, 2 days before the initial fraud alert expired, I called Equifax and asked the customer support person to renew the alert. He ( difficult foreign accent ) said it would be done and provided a confirmation number. But when I look online, it is not done. Equifax should upgrade their web site and hire personnel who will do their job. Something that should take me XXXX minutes takes hours of investigation stuck in idiotic automated phone systems. Equifax is the worst of the big XXXX credit bureaus.

Complaint:
Accounts on my consumer report have been linked to identity theft, and I never provided written authorization, including a wet signature, for their inclusion. I recently communicated with your organization about this matter, and I am formally requesting the prompt blocking and removal of these accounts from my report. Their presence has caused significant emotional and financial distress, as they inaccurately represent my credit history and responsibilities. If this issue is not appropriately addressed, I am prepared to take legal action to protect my rights and seek resolution. These fraudulent items on my credit record have hindered my ability to achieve important financial goals, such as purchasing a home and meeting the needs of my family.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I reported a credit reporting issue to all XXXX credit bureaus regarding XXXX Arkansas reporting incorrectly about a debt, as well as not accepting payment in efforts to remove the negative account from my credit report. 
I have contacted XXXX at least 7 times in the last 10 months ( phone, letter and through credit bureaus ) in efforts to clear a debt that has been reported on my credit report. I do not have the address the company is needing in order to access the account, despite providing all possible addresses I lived at in Arkansas and providing my social security number. The company representatives have refused to transfer me to higher level supervisors in efforts to reach someone who could accept a payment and remove the account from collections. 
After I reported it to the credit bureaus, I received 2 letters ( 1 is attached ) stating I need to contact the business at a non-working number that my credit representative has also reached out to with no success. I have called the correct phone number and tried to use the account number and provided the account number from the letter sent by Experian and XXXX, and nothing from XXXX. The XXXX representatives I have spoken to claim the account number is incorrect and/or does not exist. My credit restoration representative has also exhausted all contact options to reach out to the company with no success of reaching someone who can help. We have tried paying this debt off to delete from my credit report, but they refuse. This specific credit bureau has not helped in solving the issue by providing incorrect information, and this not completing their research and reporting to my credit reports appropriately. This negative credit needs to be removed immediately if XXXX is unable and unwilling to accept payment and all XXXX credit reporting companies continue to report incorrect information.
