Complaint:
I was adding another checking account to my online credit card service in order to pay my bill. It is my husband 's which I am not on, however, they have a questionable verification process. Instead of other identifying information, email etc, they require you to enter the amount holders log in ID and password ( which I refused ) for their specific checking account that is NOT written on the same bank as the credit card. As a retail merchant, this is questionable behavior on the part of my credit card company. Well all have requirements in regards to credit card information theft, but this was asking for a personal checking account online log in information. I find it a very odd verification practice.

State: CA
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 have several investment properties which I've been paying on auto pay for years. In XX/XX/2022 my mortgage provider, XXXX mortgage, transferred my loan to Freedom mortgage. I did not receive notice of this. Months later, in XXXX, by chance I noticed my credit report took a major hit due to a late payment to Freedom mortgage. 

I called them to figure out what happened, and it turned out they were now the servicer of my mortgage, and so I was late paying them because I had not realized that my mortgage had been transferred. They had an old address of mine on file, an incorrect home phone number listed that was not mine or any of my past phone numbers, the correct mobile phone number, and the correct email address. In addition, I had been receiving advertisements by email from them for months, but received no emails relating to billing or late payments. 

I immediately paid off the bill and requested Freedom mortgage remove the late strike on my credit report, and they refused. I filed disputes with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, and they refused to rectify the situation. Finally, I contacted an attorney, and they suggested I reach out to the CFPB. I've had a stellar credit report my entire life, and never miss any payments, and now my XXXX XXXX is down over XXXX points due to this issue. I feel this is not my fault, the mortgage provider had my cell phone number and email address, which they were using to advertise to me for months, but never sent any notice of bills due or late payments.

Complaint:
I bought a car with my fianc in XXXX it was this first time I have ever co-signed with anyone. I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and then I was only XXXX. He set up automatic payment for his new XXXX XXXX and it didnt pull it out in XXXX and we found out there was a late payment by looking on our credit. We immediately paid the balance and late fees and the late payment remained on our credit file. It brought our score down a lot and we are just starting to build a life together. I sent several good will letter attempts to get them to remove the late payment as we have made all of our payments on time for the last XXXX years. We have perfect payment history on the XXXX XXXX and our XXXX XXXX except for the late payment on the XXXX. We take full responsibility and learned from our mistake quickly. I just challenged the late payment this year because my new fianc and I want to buy a house after our wedding this XX/XX/XXXX and its hurting our score a lot. We dont believe this late payment properly projects our credit worthiness and have been subjected to a very high mortgage rate as first time home buyers, not to mention in the most expensive city of XXXX XXXX XXXX Its extremely tough for us and Toyota Financial Services has done nothing to help despite our perfect payment history. I have read online people getting 3-5 late payments removed off their XXXX and theyre refusing to remove 1 from our perfect payment history of XXXX years. I feel this deserves a complaint.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
Back in XX/XX/2022 I applied for payment assistance through the Texas XXXX XXXX  XXXX also known as TX XXXX. On XX/XX/2022 I was told by TX XXXX that they needed to speak with my lender PHH Mortgage Services to move forward with my application. From XX/XX/2022 until the first week of XX/XX/2022 I had to repeatedly contact PHH and following up with TX XXXX. I was told something different by each person I spoke with. I was initially told they had the application. Then I was told they didn't have it. I was later told they did not have authorization to speak with TX XXXX  despite me saying repeatedly I give you authorization to do so. I would later find out what was missing was a 3rd party authorization one single document and PHH never made it clear what was required. I was also told my application had been denied by PHH MTG because I didn't qualify, which was a lie. Finally I got the ball moving after threatening legal action. And after thinking everything was going to be okay I discovered PHH MTG received a {$5800.00} payment from TX XXXX on my behalf on XX/XX/2022. However PHH MTG is denying receiving the payment even after being provided a document from TX XXXX that shows the check number, what day it cleared, the tracing number and who it was sent to. PLEASE HELP ME GET TO THE BOTTOM OF WHAT Phh Mortgage DID WITH THAT PAYMENT. I am uncertain if PHH understands to take gov't funds via wire and not allocate them to the proper account and even deny receiving them is wire fraud.
