Company: ProCollect, Inc.
State: TX
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
I had an account with XXXX XXXX. I switched to a much cheaper company in XX/XX/XXXX. I was set up on auto pay with a credit card and always paid my account on time every month. I paid a portion of my final bill while I waited to get my final bill to know what was owed. After a few weeks I went to the website and it showed a XXXX balance. I checked back a couple of times showing the same balance. When I called them I was told there was a XXXX balance so I didn't worry about it any more. Then a few months later I received a notice from a credit monitoring service that I had a collection account. I called XXXX again and they assured me I had a XXXX balance. I then was able to track down ProCollect who said I owed {$300.00}. I called them on XX/XX/XXXX, and they told me that if I paid it that day they would remove the collection from the credit bureau. I paid immediately. Not only did I pay it on XX/XX/XXXX, they didn't report it to XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX, almost 6 weeks later. My main complaint is I was told they would remove the collection from the credit reporting bureaus and they did not! They just reported it as paid. 

My credit history shows a perfect history of paying on times for years. XXXX told me and it was shown on my online account as paid so I could not make any kind of a payment. I never received any notification of a collection until I received a notice from my credit monitoring service. 

I paid ProCollect on the very first phone conversation and paid an amount that wasn't verified other than what they told me it was mostly because I thought it was close and they said they would remove the report from the credit bureaus. 

They should have to do what they say. They have a recording of our conversation.

Complaint:
I had a balance of {$300.00} and didnt realize the promotional balance had ended and I was charged {$440.00} in interest. I try speaking to the company and they said there is nothing that I can do nor they can do for me. Im not doing financially well at the moment and I think it is completely unfair that I have to pay them more than I can and on top of that the dental work that was done didnt even last a year. I paid {$1600.00} for the crown and a year later it fell out, I cant even get it fixed bc the dental company said no until I have dental insurance which I believe is completely unfair

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information is missing that should be on the report

Complaint:
On Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX I called TransUnion to dispute an information problem on my credit report. For the past two months, my TransUnion credit report has been missing from my credit history. This is rectified further on partner sites like XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX which allow you to view TransUnion reports. Even when my XXXX and XXXX reports were reporting correctly. After some back and forth, they saw that this was a matter they could transfer to their so-called " Special Handling '' department since they saw I have no credit history, but not a split credit file. Unlike previous incidents with TransUnion. Which were solved easily due to me knowing their " Split File error code '' to fix it. However, they were closed on the weekends and were told to call back the next business day and state the same problem. While also being told you can ask to be transferred to " special handling ''. 

On Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX I had some time to call TransUnion and restate my current situation and unfortunately, the representatives I talked to stated this wasn't a matter that could be disputed and sent to special handling. After threatening a CFPB complaint, I was transferred to a supervisor instead of their special handling department which would help dispute my credit report. Instead, the supervisor had persistently told me it wasn't TransUnion 's problem even though the Fair Credit Reporting Act gives me the right to dispute with the credit reporting agencies. I was told to call the banks instead and tell them to correct the dispute without needing them. After asking to transfer to " Special Handling '' for the third time to help dispute, they continually refused. Even though I knew this was Transunion 's problem, not the bank 's. After being hung up on by TransUnion it was the moment this complaint needed to be written up. 

I contacted XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX the same day regarding this matter while checking my XXXX and XXXX reports and the three banks have told me that they've reported everything correctly. Including TransUnion. Was told this was a Transunion problem again. Not the banks.

Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Problem with paying off the loan

Complaint:
I had a car financed through SANTANDER CONSUMER USA. The car was was totaled, date of loss is XX/XX/2023. My insurance company, XXXX, completed the settlement on XXXX XXXX. XXXX paid Santander their payoff amount electronically on XX/XX/2023. The settlement amount was more than the payoff amount. I have already received my portion of the settlement electronically. I am still owed a balance from the extended warranty, which will be released from SANTANDER. I have been calling for the last XXXX days, multiple representatives said the payment wasnt received. They keep harassing me for a payment. I told them that they were already paid. The last rep relayed information that THE BANK DOESNT HAVE A ROUTING NUMBER, therefore, a check may have been sent. I think that is bogus. How does a bank not have a routing number in 2023?!?!? I have always paid my note electronically. XXXX paid them electronically. XXXX paid me immediately. Santander is giving me the runaround and I need help resolving this matter please. Thanks in advance.
