On the info listed it had : enhanced inquiry SYNCB/SAM'sXXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX FL XXXX I immediately called the provided number, Just to be met with difficulty. 
Upon my first call I was sent to Fraud dept, where they just hung upon me once I explained my dilemma. 
My second call, A lady answered getting upset with me refusing to assist me in the matter. 
Third attempt, A sir stated there was nothing I could do. 
I advised him that I did have rights that protect me from situations as such, an was why I called to resolve issue of possible fraud. 
I advised I was in XXXX, NM where I reside and have credit monitoring which alerted me of an inquiry. 
He just stated do what you need we can't do anything. 
I have not pulled my credit for Credit cards being that I am trying to purchase a home. And now am dealing with possible fraud with no concern or help from the company that pulled my credit with out my consent or know. 
I understand I may be just another consumer to them, however it is a huge concern to a single mother trying to get a Mortgage to buy a home for my children and I.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone

Complaint:
Ive have worked hard to obtain a credit score at or close to 800, and I finally got it there in XX/XX/2019, as of the XXXX ... then all of the sudden it dropped over 40 points. Ive applied for no new credit, Ive paid down all but one account, and have never been late with any payments. I checked all three credit bureaus reports and don't see anything negative anywhere that would cause such a huge drop. I have written complaints to the bureaus but truly don't expect a reply that directly helps me understand what has happened all of the sudden. Could someone please tell me what has taken place to cause my score to drop over two weeks so drastically?

Company: PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES INC

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
I have three collection or bad debts on my credit, XXXX XXXX  and 2 from portfolio associates. They are from XXXX and too old to be reporting per Ohios statutes for credit reporting. Besides that, Portfolio Recovery sold or got rid of one of the accounts per their own website yet they are still reporting it on my credit. If this CFPB complaint is not successful I will seek other avenues to get these items off my report. 
Besides that I filed bankruptcy in XXXX. It is XXXX XXXX XXXX. It was removed from all of my husbands credit reports almost 2 years ago but remains on mine. We filed together. Why am I the only one it is still reflecting on? I understand it can remain for 7-10 years but it has been completely removed from his report, yet still reflects on mine 8 years later. That does not seem like equal or fair credit reporting to me. I want my credit report to accurately reflect information and it does not. I have disputed more than once with the credit bureaus and nothing happens.

Complaint:
Why do I keep losing point on my credit score when there have been no negative changes? The only change has been DECREASING DEBT which should raise my score. Ive lost almost XXXX  points ( and another XXXX  points today!!! ) WITH ZERO CHANGES. 

Equifax isnt even updating my credit score with my positive payment history and decreased debt like the other bureaus, but continue to decrease my score? 

Please make this make sense to me.

Complaint:
I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

Company: Peer Advisors, LLC
State: FL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Reverse mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
My complaint is against XXXX XXXXe XXXX. The company has Not forwarded a disbursement request of {$43000.00} made by my mother from her HECM Home Equity Account before she died. 

My mother wrote to XXXX XXXX  XXXX ( on the fund release form ) asking for {$43000.00} that was in her Reverse Mortgage equity account to be transferred to her bank account on file with them ( I have a copy of this correspondence ). 

My Mother had a Reverse Mortgage ( HECM ) with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX   XXXX. In autumn 2017, XXXX XXXX XXXX bought her loan from XXXX XXXX. 

Writing in - on the fund request form - is her usual way to request disbursement of monies from her reverse mortgage Home Equity account. 

My mother made this monetary request {$43000.00} as part of her 'putting her affairs in order ', whilst she was in hospice-care when the doctors told us she had weeks to live. 

After my mother 's death ( + probate/when I received access to my mother 's accounts ) I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX, to query when the monies would be disbursed to her bank account. The money never arrived. 

I was told by a XXXX XXXX 'phone agent ' that they have a 'different policy ' to disburse monies from a XXXX XXXX XXXX Equity account. " Different ''??? 

I have asked XXXX XXXX XXXX rep XXXX XXXX ( via email ) - several times over several months for the name of the person at their organisation who can assist me / discuss this disbursement issue. 
I have had No response, from a manager/director at XXXX XXXX  XXXX pertaining to this matter. 

I am asking that XXXX XXXX XXXX respects my mother 's disbursement request, and send us the {$43000.00} that is in her Home Equity Account. 

In conclusion, 1. When a company takes over a client from another company - if they have a policy shift, it's mandatory to advise the client of this change. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX did not tell us anything - They are just holding her/our money. 

2. When dealing with the elderly, putting information on paper ; getting her to sign a document outlining how she gets access to the money in her Home Equity account is important ( if they have a policy change ). This would allow her to act accordingly. 

Not doing so, takes away her Right to get access to her home equity funds {$43000.00}. 
This is Unjust. 

I am asking that XXXX XXXX XXXX respects my mother 's disbursement request, and send us the {$43000.00} that is in her Home Equity Account.
