Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
In the summer of XX/XX/2018 I was moved to the state of Nevada by Hurricane Maria for a  job offer. Proceedings were made with the Banco Popular of Puerto Rico to verify how the car that the bank could finance me move to there. The Banco Popular did not have branches in that state did not allow the vehicle to be moved at less than It will not be paid in full. As this payment was not possible, we were forced to voluntarily give it up. In these circumstances, it seems to us that the consumer should not be harmed with a negative credit report when banks do not have alternatives for this type of transaction in interstate commerce.

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX  Original creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX The company above along with XXXX, XXXX, & Equifax has not validated this debt, XXXX has not provided methods of validation and the debt collection has not provided original contract with XXXX XXXX with my wet signature. 


I am disputing the account stated above. Previously, I disputed this account information as being inaccurate, and you responded by stating you were able to verify this debt. But how is that possible? Under the laws of the FDCPA, I have contacted the collection agency myself, XXXX XXXX and they have failed to verify that this is indeed my debt. 
I was given no evidence of my obligation to pay this debt to this collection agency.. 
The Fair Credit Reporting act requires you to verify the validity of this within 30 days. If the validity can not be verified, you are obligated by law to remove it from my credit file. I urge you to remove this account before I am forced to take legal action. 
In the event that you can not verify the item pursuant to FCRA, and you continue to report it on my credit, I will find it necessary to sue you for actual damages and declaratory relief. According to FCRA regulations, I may sue you in any qualified state or federal court, including small claims court in my area. 

I look forward to a swift and amicable resolution to this matter.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I got a call from a man who, after confirming my name and address, said a " case '' had been filed against and that I was going to " be 'served ' with legal papers '' the following day. He gave a case number ( XXXX ) and number to call. XXXX called the number, and my identity was linked to my phone number, and was told I had a legal matter and would be served with papers concerning a debt. They pressed the matter and after I informed them I had no debts, was told they wouldn't hold a trial over the phone. I asked if they were debt collectors and they said they were a " mediation '' firm, and I called them debt collectors. I told them they sounded like a scam and were violating the FDCPA and they refused address, identity, corporate filing information and hung up. I called back demanding to know WHO they were, they kept hanging up. They had identified as XXXX XXXX and XXXX. I called back after waiting a few days and a woman told me they were in XXXX, Florida at XXXX XXXX XXXX, no XXXX XXXX. Upon checking with they property owner, the multiple suite complex had no such Tennant. Secretary of State Florida had no such business registered either. They provided an email of XXXX. checking email is valid but info on, biz site for ownership shows listed domain, but ownership details redacted for privacy. A subpoena or agency could get who they are released. I was also told this was an HSBC debt of over a thousand dollars from XXXX and they would settle the debt for 50 %. 
XXXX XXXX was trying to collect on a fraud listed fifteen year old debt, pretended it was a filed case, and denied trying to collect upon a debt I did not owe. 
Further research uncovers the same scam listed elsewhere by the same people. 
They refuse to discuss the matter, disclose who they are or where they are, or any corporate address or filings with any regulatory agencies. 
I can be reached at XXXX, and can provide enough proof of this to fine or charge them with a crime. The number for " XXXX XXXX '' is ( XXXX ) XXXX.

Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
I Have tried for months to obtain my PIN. I went to the website, and it doesn't even offer me the questions to try and identify me. They state I must send sensitive information through the mail. I refuse to do this as US mail is not secure. They indicated if I paid a monthly fee, I could get it lifted, and speak to real people. None of this has happened, and I still can not contact a person I understand they had a security breach, and it is of paramount importance that I get a new PIN, or at least my old one so that I can change it. It is impossible to talk to anyone on the phone.

I recently had issues with XXXX, and it was taken care of via their website.

I need my credit thawed, and unfortunately Experian is less than helpful in any matter.

Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: PA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: FHA mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
To whom it may concern : I have reached out to your FREEDOM MORTGAGE customer service department on numerous occasions without any resolution to my problem nor do I even get a callback. 

At issue, I have made numerous EXTRA - FULL payments on my mortgage, account number. 

I wanted these payments applied in such a way that my mortgage would be PAID AHEAD by ( 6 ) months. 

Instead, the funds were applied supposedly to the principle. 

Since the funds were NOT applied to my account in the manner I intended, I have requested the funds be RETURNED/REFUNDED. 

To date, I have only received a REFUND check in the amount of $ XXXXXX which is MUCH LESS than the amounts of my OVERPAYMENTS. 

But, my bigger concern is that my ACCOUNT HISTORY is so jumbled up with Primary Payments, Payments, Reversals, and Payment Suspense line items, it is extremely difficult for your Representatives to read my account. 

This is extremely FRUSTRATING, not to mention the RUDE treatment exhibited by your representatives because they can't seem to figure it out ; as if it's my fault and like I'm being a nuisance for even wanting them to research it. 

Again, with each phone call, I am told by the representative the account will be sent to the CASH DEPARTMENT to assess the situation and that someone will get back to me. 

Of course, no one ever does ... 

So, what I want is to have an accountant look over my account line-item for line-item, starting from XX/XX/XXXX to current XX/XX/XXXX. 

After this, I then would like a PROMPT REFUND of my sizeable EXTRA-CASH FUNDS for the monies not applied as I intended. 

I am at the point where I have a DISTRUST of your firm and I am researching ways to REFINANCE my mortgage. 

I am also researching ways on who and what organizations I need to contact in order to have Freedom Mortgage and your bookkeeping practices investigated. 

I am looking for a SWIFT RESOLUTION to this matter.
