Company: RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing LLC
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
I have been trying to work with Roundpoint Mortgage servicing company that holds the 2nd on my home over the last 7 years with no success. I was given misguided information from so many representatives. Everytime I try negotiating they send me a package in the mail and I complete and send back they say they didn't receive it. Finally after years I have a representative that is more familiar with these issues assist me. I assigned the company a power of attorney and they were at one point communicating with Roundpoint but then the representative became non responsive. Round point has not contacted me on the phone number they have on file or through email or any type of certified letters. Everytime I call them they say they will have a rep call me within 48 hours. I was recently sent a notice of default stating that XXXX XXXX XXXX who is the private lenders want to foreclose on my property. I have been willing to negotiate the balance for years and Roundpoint is not responding. I finally was able to get through to a rep this week and sent in the last 2 items they said they needed which I was never informed of. They also said I had to resend my authorization and hardship letter AGAIN because it " expired ''. The only reason it expired is because they would not call the POA or myself. Once again they said they don't have the POA on file so I sent it to them again on XX/XX/2018 with all the final documentation. They say it takes 4 business days to receive the images, which is also strange since they are faxed to them. I am willing to negotiate a balance and have always been willing but they were not working with me. Now that the house has increase in value they placed a notice of default so that they can force me out of my house. 

I am a single mom with an elderly mother that lives with me. I have a daughter that is going to college which I pay for, who's dad passed away 2 years ago. I pay for all the expenses in my household and any medical expenses for my elderly mother. If I am forced out of my house it will affect my entire family. 

I feel that Roundpoint Mortgage and XXXX XXXX XXXX ( who I believe had been bailed out ) is forcing me to go into foreclosure. I need assistance on how to handle this.

Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: WI
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan
Sub-issue: Problem lowering your monthly payments

Complaint:
On XX/XX/18 I contacted XXXX XXXX , XXXX, the company that handles payments and loan servicing, for Citizens One student loans. I expressed to them that I could no longer afford their payment and need to talk about options on how to do so. I informed them that we had recently completed a bankruptcy and would not qualify to refinance. XXXX expressed that there were no options available for me get payment relief and that they were following lender guidelines. I requested to talk to a manager and received the same information. This time she told me my only option was to go back to school atleast half time and that my loan payments would be deferred. At what point does it make sense to defer payments, accrue daily interest, and increase my payments when the loan goes back into repayment. I can't afford the payment as is. The best XXXX could do was file a complaint with Citizens One. So I called citizens one. I spoke with a woman and then a manager. The manager was willing to conference in XXXX and discuss options with me. This was nice. However, it ended in the same result. Nothing could be done. I am a willing consumer wanting to pay my loan, but can't afford the payment. Neither company wants to help. They both kept saying I wish there was something I could do.

Complaint:
Dear XXXX, I am writing to request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) remove fraudulent accounts from my XXXX and TransUnion credit reports. These accounts were opened without my knowledge or consent, and have had a severely negative impact on my credit score and overall financial standing.

The fraudulent accounts in question are as follows : XXXX, opened on XX/XX/XXXX with a balance of {$710.00}, XXXX XXXX, opened on XX/XX/XXXX with a balance of {$3300.00}, and XXXX, XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX with a balance of {$0.00}. I have never had any accounts with these institutions, and did not authorize anyone to open them on my behalf. 

As a victim of identity theft and fraud, I have taken all necessary steps to rectify the situation, including contacting the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and placing a fraud alert on my credit reports. Despite my efforts, these fraudulent accounts continue to appear on my credit reports, and have caused significant harm to my XXXX XXXX and financial reputation. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I have the right to dispute inaccurate or fraudulent information on my credit reports. I am requesting that the CFPB take immediate action to remove these fraudulent accounts from my XXXX and TransUnion credit reports, and to ensure that they do not reappear in the future. 

I appreciate your attention to this matter, and I look forward to a prompt resolution. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I have attempted to Dispute a company on my Experian report multiple times. I do not have an account with this company. I never consented to a loan for this company, despite the paperwork they provided with my name on it. I never visited the car lot to get a car. This account was opened by my daughter XXXX XXXX. I provided the down payment and I gave them a post-dated check to deposit at a later date to complete the down payment. I had to sign a form -- my daughter brought it to me at my job -- giving them consent to deposit the post dated check at the specified date. That's the ONLY document I signed. I disputed the account with CFPB and in the company 's response they state that they repossessed this car and that my signature was verified. This car has been at a car shop for most of the time. IT HAS BEEN OUT OF WORK. IT HAS NEVER BEEN REPOSSESSED. This company is not reliable and they have me mixed up with another person. But, if going by their statement, IF they repossessed the car and I paid and they gave me the car back, wouldn't that mean that the car is paid UP TO DATE? Their information is so conflicting. This is FRAUD and IDENTITY MIX-UP. 
Also, they state that they have received multiple calls from me regarding this account. That is a bold face lie and I have not called this company in years!!! They can not produce any recordings with my voice because I have not called them. I have enclosed their response to CFPB. 
XXXX deleted their account from my report because they saw all the inconsistencies and realized that this account is not accurate. I am requesting that Experian does the same. THIS IS NOT MY ACCOUNT!!! 

" The copy of the drivers license you submitted with your XX/XX/XXXX credit dispute was the same drivers license provided on XX/XX/XXXX when you redeemed your vehicle after it was repossessed '' " And we have received multiple phone calls regarding this account from a person identifying and authenticating herself as you ''

I found unverified items on my credit report and according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), your company is required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed certified consumer contract - of any and all accounts you request to be posted and or reported on a credit report. I demand to see a copy of the Verifiable, Validated Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with a wet-ink Signature on it, copies of copies are not Validation and by Law are not considered proof ), that you have on file for the account listed above. Under the FCRA, unverified, invalid accounts must be removed. If you are unable to provide the me with a copy of the verifiable/validated proof that you have on file within 30 calendar days from receipt of this notice, for the account listed above then you must at once remove the account from ( Your Name ) credit reports. I demand the account be verified or removed immediately! The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me for the " negligent noncompliance '' ( Section 617 ) if you fail to comply with this Federal Law. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the accounts listed below. I demand the following accounts be verified or removed immediately. 

1. XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX 2. XXXX XXXX XXXX 3. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 4. XXXX  XXXX 5. XXXX XXXX XXXX 6.

I will expect you to complete your investigation within 30 calendar days from the date you received this dispute or the item being disputed will be unverifiable and subject to deletion. Please note that your Credit Reporting Agency is now subject to Federal consumer financial laws, including, among others, the FCRA and Title X of the Dodd-Frank Act, and related regulations including a ban on Abusive Acts or Practices.
