State: CA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2018 I submitted a request for validation and verification of dismissed bankruptcy reporting on my credit report from XXXX XXXX. It came back as verified by the court and reporting that the court is the furnisher of the information. This investigation was completed on XX/XX/2018. On XX/XX/2018 I contacted XXXX  asking who or what entity verified this information, I was advised that the information was verified by a 2nd and or 3rd party. I notified them that with my original request I had included a letter from the court in question that states they do not verify, validate or report any information to CRAs or any other furnishers. When I asked for the source to whom performed this verification / validation, I was told they do not disclose that information and that they are not obligated to do so. This in its self is a clear violation of FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681I ) ( b ) ( iii ), ( v ). I further bring notice of the request for verification and or validation requested not only the verification and validation, but also the process and or systems used, any furnishers, persons and or entities used in collection of data and or information in regards to this dispute. This refusal to provide the requested information is a violation under the FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) ( 6 ) ( b ) ( iii ) ( 7 ), FCRA 616 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n ) and or FCRA 617 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681o ). Under FCRA 609 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681g ) ( 2 ) I will enact my rights to file a suit with the district court in my region

Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Payday loan
Issue: Struggling to pay your loan

Complaint:
I took out a small {$300.00} loan from speedy cash loan, I want to say 8 years ago online while living in Arkansas and I paid every 2 weeks on the loan, so much money, I paid more than triple the amount of what I borrowed. So I stopped paying, my aunt who I lived with at the time talked to them for me and told them I wouldn't be giving them anymore money because I already paid more than triple of what I had borrowed and they still wanted more. Now for the past two or three years they've been sending me emails randomly, threatening to have me arrested mainly and have my wages garnished. They say I've committed 4 crimes : ( 1 ) VIOLATION OF FEDERAL BANKING REGULATION ( 2 ) COLLATERAL CHECK FRAUD ( 3 ) THEFT BY DECEPTION ( 4 ) ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFER Threatening to have a warrant for my arrest unless I pay {$890.00} immediately. I have all the emails saved. I believe in one of them they said the deputies in my area have been notified of my warrant and to arrest me. I just got another one today and I just found out that that's illegal for them to threaten me with being arrested.

Complaint:
This company has failed on multiple occasions in the past couple months to comply to the laws. They have failed to investigate my dispute properly, FAILED TO RESPOND to my disputes, failed to prove investigations, failed TO PROVE OWNERSHIP, failed to legally verify and prove willful negligence. 

This company has FAILED to investigate and validate this information and provide me with copies of documentation associated with these accounts bearing my signature showing that I gave ANY PERMISSIBLE PURPOSE to furnish any information on my behalf. 

I, XXXX XXXX XXXX, have gathered all this information for litigation to file lawsuits and seek jury trial on this matter against the credit bureaus and these companies that are making money off me while maintaining my credit in the ruins and selling my information to third parties.

Company: AES/PHEAA
State: MA
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Don't agree with the fees charged

Complaint:
I had student loans through XXXX, which is a loan servicer for the Department of Education. I paid off the loans in full through their website, but this did not cancel my regular monthly payment, as one might've hoped, so that went through and they were overpaid by {$570.00}. I called XXXX about this and the first person I talked to said he would put the refund through right away and made it sound like I'd be receiving it shortly. But when I didn't see it after a week, I called again to ensure it had been processed and the new representative told me it takes 7-10 days on their end to process and then up to 45 days to process via the U.S. Department of the Treasury. It seems really offensively inefficient that after paying off these loans without issue for years that they would now keep XXXX {$600.00} of my money for such a long period of time. I would not be allowed such a courtesy if the roles were reversed and {$600.00} is nothing to sneeze at. I want to know why it takes such an extremely long period of time to refund such a substantial sum of money to me? If I were to take my sweet time paying my loans you would not be quite so patient with me so I don't see how this is just or fair. Am I allowed to charge you interest until you pay my money back? No. So I'm not understanding why the processing time is so unreasonable and no one at the business was able to answer my questions about this.

Complaint:
" You stated that the account should be in your name being that the account is under the social security number of your child. You stated that the Bank has accepted the transfer and allowed this person to steal your money without checking the validity of the name of information from the party whose account it is. You are requesting that the funds be returned, the account changed, and transfer your funds to a more responsible institution. '' First and foremost, in a previous complaint submitted Bank of the West stated that I am not the account holder for an account that has my childs ssn on it which could perhaps in question. This account was more than likely transferred from an account that has my childs ssn on it at XXXX. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO VERIFY WHERE FUNDS CAME FROM UPON ENTERING YOUR INSTITUTION. I did not sign anything to have my account transferred to someone else where the ssn or tax id is different. If you take privacy and security seriously, this would of been investigated by your institution. I am the ONLY guardian of my child and if the account is opened using my childs ssn, it is FRAUD. Any bank would know that if I clearly called them to state MY INQUIRY. if you pulled my childs ssn up and an account pulls up, that means it is in fact my account regardless whose name is listed. I submitted a police report. Your conpany clearly doesnt know your role in verifying where funds came from and whose account it came from. The funds came from an account owned by me with my childs ssn on it amd was transferred to another institution to a person I have no clue who they are. How is that not fraud. Did this person show proof that the ssn used is his or a childs. Tax id numbers are supposed to be verified when used. Clearly you did not verify it! Failure to follow regulations. I want the account associated with my childs ssn found. SEC  has been notified of your fraudulent acts and inability to research my issue.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
I have a loan that was purchased by loan depot. A temporary construction loan meant to be refinanced as soon as the house was built. Loan Depot has been the worst lender I have ever dealt with. I went into forbearance in XXXX of XXXX when I lost my job due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I changed careers and got back to work and tried to get into a loan modification in XXXX of XXXX. Loan Depot took 4 months to give terms of the modification and the terms are completely unacceptable. They left the interest rate the same ( 5.5 % - even though prime is closer to 3 % ), they did not remove PMI ( even though there is $ XXXX in equity in the house ), and they actually INCREASED the monthly payment rather than reduce it. I called and countered with better terms and they said take it or leave it. 

THEY THREATENED MY CREDIT SCORE IF I DID NOT ACCEPT THEIR OFFER! 

$ XXXX is too much and I can not afford that. 5.5 % interest is USERY! They will not work with me at all. Loan Depot is the WORST lender I have ever worked with. I need help. Can anyone help me? 

Loan Depot also took 4 months to give me the terms of the modification, but counted that time towards my total forbearance time. So, I can not even get that 4 months back or added to my forbearance.
