Complaint:
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction and frustration regarding the repeated attempts I have made to rectify the ongoing issue of late open account associated with my XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance : {$1400.00}. Despite my numerous efforts to resolve this matter, the problem remains unresolved, causing significant inconvenience and distress. 

I first noticed the late open account issue previously. Since then, I have diligently contacted your company 's customer service department to bring this matter to your attention. During these interactions, I have provided all the necessary documentation and information requested, yet the issue persists, and no concrete action has been taken to correct it. 

The late open account issue has had a negative impact on my financial stability and credit score. I have faced undue stress and financial setbacks as a result of this unresolved problem, which should have been addressed promptly and efficiently. I have made timely payments and fulfilled all obligations on my end, and it is disheartening to see that my efforts have not been reciprocated. 

I am formally requesting the following actions to be taken promptly : Immediate correction of the late open account on my credit report to accurately reflect my payment history and prevent any further damage to my credit score. 
A written confirmation of the resolution, including the date when the correction was made. 
An apology for the inconvenience and stress caused by the repeated failures to address this issue in a timely manner. 
I understand that mistakes can happen, but I believe it is only fair that your company takes responsibility for its errors and takes the necessary steps to rectify them. I trust that this matter will be resolved promptly, as it is in both of our interests to ensure the accuracy of my credit report. 

If my concerns are not addressed within the exact timeframe from the date of this letter, I may have no choice but to escalate this issue further by seeking legal assistance or contacting relevant regulatory authorities.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NY
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Problem using a debit or ATM card

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I made three ( 3 ) separate purchases using my Bank of America debit card on the website entitled XXXX. 
It is the normal practice of XXXX to send a confirmation email within minutes of making the purchase on their website. I grew concerned when I did not receive a confirmation email. I could not reach a representative at XXXX so I immediately called Bank of America at XXXX on the same date XX/XX/XXXX. A Bank of America representative indicated that the charge had not yet come through but that as soon as they did come through I would be given a temporary credit and my claim/dispute would be processed. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, three ( 3 ) charges appeared on my Bank of America account in the amounts of {$95.00}, {$95.00} and {$330.00}. 
As promised, on XX/XX/XXXX, Bank of America provided three ( 3 ) temporary credits matching the three ( 3 ) XXXX debits. 
To date, I have not received the items purchased on the XXXX website nor a confirmation email. Instead, XXXX insists that the 3 orders were failed due to payment failure As such, XXXX continues to insist that I was not charged. See attached screenshot of my communications with XXXX. 
Bank of America, without explanation, reversed the temporary credits on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$95.00} ; on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$95.00} and the last one for {$330.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX has not provided the items purchased and maintains that XXXX did not receive payment. 

Bank of America received my XX/XX/XXXX fax complaint and on XX/XX/XXXX Bank of America sent to me two emails indicating that they would not be returning the credit to the account because XXXX validated the purchase. Yet, I have no idea how such a validation was made by XXXX   since I still do not have the items purchased.

Complaint:
When I signed up I was told that the balance would be paid off within 12 months. However I was recently told that I would have to pay the full balance in one lump sum. Therefore the monthly payments I've made for the past 11 months has not effected what I owe. That I'm also stuck paying on this account. I can not afford to pay the balance in full. now my credit score and reports are down and negative therefore making it harder for me to leave a place that is not safe for me.

Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: FL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
On or around XX/XX/2021, I called Shellpoint Mtg to inquire how to have my payments applied to my principal balance and deferred principal balance. I spoke with a man who informed me that the principal balance on my account was {$130000.00} and the deferred principal balance was {$650.00}. He assured me that I could pay these balances which would leave only accumulated late fees on my account. I made the payments separately as he stated it would be easier to apply them to the correct balances. I received confirmation number XXXX for the {$1300.00} and confirmation number XXXX for the # XXXX. Both amounts have come out of my checking account on XX/XX/2021. To my dismay when following up on my balance on XX/XX/2021, I spoke with XXXX XXXX and found that XXXX applied my {$650.00} to the monthly payment amount, and the {$1300.00} was sitting in a dormant state and not applied to anything. After a long discussion she stated she was a team lead and would correct the issue by applying the funds where they were designated to go. She assured me it would be corrected. I called back on XX/XX/2021 and spoke with XXXX and as suspected the funds were still in the same state. I have been trying to pay this mortgage off but they continue to hold my funds to charge me more interest and late fees. I paid enough funds to have my entire principal balance paid off, but the automated recording is saying I have a payment due on XX/XX/2021. This is very poor customer service and bordering on illegal. How can you ask me for payments with my funds sitting in a dormant state. My next step is to go to my local news station, and XXXX concerning the practices of Shellpoint mortgage Servicing. I will send a copy of this to Senator XXXX XXXX when when creating the CFPB to stop this type of malpractice, needs to be informed that companys like Shellpoint are laughing inn her face and not taking the banking reforms seriously. XXXX XXXX will also receive a copy of this.

Complaint:
Transunion, XXXX  and XXXX  are reporting 3 hard  inquiries in my credit reports all originating from the same mortgage loan. This is having a negative affect on my credit ratings, and could affect my interest rate. 

We applied for a home construction loan with XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX. As with all construction projects, the loan process occurs over a period of several weeks while a construction contract is negotiated, plans developed, and pricing finalized. XXXX pulled our report twice, at initiation and with the final builder contract 8 weeks later. The other two banks pulled once. 

It was obvious that we were shopping for the best mortgage proposal for our new home and should not be penalized for doing our due diligence. This should be treated as one hard inquiry ... period. 

My experience is without getting an attorney involved, these companies do not take the time to adequately investigate issues within their reports. 

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
