Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: SC
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
I'm submitting this complaint against all XXXX major credit reporting agencies. 

I've submitted a letter to the credit bureaus, XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX, on XXXX XXXX. This letter asked for detailed information regarding how the account information on my credit report was investigated and validated. Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act states that the credit reporting agencies are required BY FEDERAL LAW, to verify, through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract, any and all accounts that they post on a credit report. 

I have demanded to see verifiable proof ( i.e. an original consumer contract with my signature on it ) that they have on file for the accounts list below that appear on my credit report. These inaccuracies have hurt my ability to obtain credit. 

Under the FCRA, any unverifiable accounts must be removed from my credit report and if they are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof for these accounts listed below, they must be removed from my credit report. 

I demand that these accounts be removed from my credit report immediately seeing as that this investigation has gone on longer than 30 days and there has not been any verifiable proof ( i.e. an original customer signed contract with my signature on it ) presented within the 30 day investigation window. 

The accounts in question are listed below : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX

Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint:
When I terminated my service with XXXX XXXX  years ago I was very specific as to the " payed in full amount ''. Dealing with this company is a nightmare but they were the only ones with a XXXX XXXX I wanted. 
I was given the amount from their customer service department and I returned everything as requested following the steps perfectly. Months later I received a collections notice, naturally demanding payment for a debt not owed.The amount is {$270.00} from Credco ( XXXX XXXX ). I contacted them several times which is a time consuming nightmare and was told it was a mistake on their end but the notices kept coming and my frustrations grew. The fifth time I contacted them I didn't go through to customer service, strait to the collections department where I was told they didn't care or wanted to hear anything from me and to pay up or it would remain on my credit report until I did. This is illegal, unethical, and extortion. They wouldn't ever tell me what was owed, just pay the amount. 
If you send anything back to XXXX XXXX  now XXXX reads you a disclaimer and provides you a secondary tracking number because they've pull this XXXX with SO many people. 
Please get this removed, I'd pay it if it was owed but I won't be bullied into paying it!

Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
I am deeply saddened to share that when I logged into my mortgage portal today, I was met with a surprise. I noticed that my regular payment had almost doubled from the previous amount. It feels unfair and unjust for the insurance to increase to {$20000.00} a year. This sudden hike in price is a clear abuse of power over consumers, and it places a significant burden on regular-income families like mine who may struggle to make ends meet. 
I immediately reached out to the relevant parties via email to express my disapproval of this new insurance policy and requested that my previous insurance be reinstated. As a consumer who entrusts the XXXX XXXX to take care of the servicing of my loan, taxes, and insurance, I was left wondering why they would let this happen. I am hopeful that they will understand my concerns and take swift action to rectify the situation.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2018 I was contact via email by the Manager XXXX XXXX of the Homesavers Government Program that my application for a Home loan relief and assistance that they will not be able to process or give any assistance for me being that I was not in a position to complete all legal requirements demanded by the government to display for their review to decide my approval for funds. 

During this process of being reassured by my current home loan provider XXXX XXXX .... the action requested of me by Ms. XXXX XXXX at the Housing Agency was totally impossible. 

I have another borrower on my existing mortgage that I havent seen or conversed with in many years nor was I able to provided a current address or produce a required signature of the additional borrower because that would mean I was in contact with such person. 

I informed Homesaver Government Program Ms XXXX XXXX that it would require me to conduct a entire refinance of my home to remove the other borrower to have the ability to complete all vital Government required documentation necessary to go forward and that wasnt possible because I was also unable to afford such a process even if it was possible. 
Nor was I able to produce other financial records also stipulated in the Government detailed document to become a participant that MUST be provided by all residents in the community. 

As I explained to this Programs Management and Ms. XXXX XXXX, and many others who authorized the continuation of processing incomplete documents and altering the stipulations at their own discretion ignoring the demand of the Federal Government to obtain housing funds is simply athat did not meet the required standards to do so. 

Unfortunately I was not giving any type of common sense reply or explanation. 

Therefore, the inquiry that impacted my credit report was legitimately unauthorized that resulted in a decline in my credit score, Also I was informed by management and Ms.XXXX  prior to the decision of there action to submit these documents that I would be declined. 

Which was absolutely wrong to even attempt to submit with full knowledge of the essentials needed to be approved.

I have a loan with Prestige financial in which I usually pay over the phone with my debit card. I had some issue with the car which put my car payment behind. I notified the company and prior to my next pay I sent in a check. The check was for a specific amount in which I let the company know ahead of time. They in turn received the check, took the account information and routing number to process a payment without my consent. The representatives are rude, uneasy to talk to and can be intimidating. I used email to contact them and it clearly stated that I was NOT giving them my account information. Isnt that illegal?
