Company: LoanCare, LLC
State: WI
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
Our insurance is escrowed in our mortgage payment. Loancare did not make the insurance payment ( to XXXX XXXX ) and the homeowners policy expired leaving us uninsured. Our house was hit by lightening after Loancare let the policy expire. So we now have a claim and Loancare will not provide the same coverage we were paying them for ( through XXXX XXXX ). Furthermore, Loancare is only insuring our dwelling and because we have an open claim we can't get our own insurance policy to cover our personal belongings and we are not insured if anyone injures themselves on our property. 
The homeowners insurance policy expired on XX/XX/19. Lightening hit our house on XX/XX/19. From XX/XX/19 until XX/XX/19 we could not get any information from Loancare. Just that it took them that long to get us a policy for our dwelling only. 
XXXX XXXX a manager from Loancare said that it was not their fault that the insurance policy expired because they claim to have reached out to XXXX XXXX company but the insurance co  wouldn't release the policy.

Complaint:
The credit bureaus stated my account was properly investigated but how is that possible if the open date is inaccurate, the date last active is inaccurate, and the date last reported is not accurate. Among others. This is grounds for removal. 

They also violated my rights under : 15 USC 1681 section 602A states I have the right to privacy.

15 USC 1681 section 604A sec. 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: CA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Closing your account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
To whom it may concern, AMEX decided on XX/XX/XXXX to cancel ALL my AMEX accounts that I had with them. They gave me no valid reason for this on the phone, and just won't tell me why. I have been a customer of theirs since XX/XX/XXXX. This type of behaviour and inconsideration is unacceptable. I deserve better. I have never missed any payments, and always had my accounts in good standing with never having an issues with them. 

I believe they have heavy handedly closed my account for a reason that was beyond my control and/or someone has made a mistake and won't own up to it. However, I suffer here because I have outstanding balances that I am used to paying over time for, but now they require the amounts in FULL. Each time I contact AMEX no one knows what is going on. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I was alerted by XXXX that AMEX had opened an account under my name, which is not something I did. This reflects now on my credit score rating. Again I contacted AMEX and they won't tell me anything. I want this " new account '' taken from off my credit score and rating as I have not opened anything. They closed all my accounts down on XX/XX/XXXX and then ran a new account through a credit check the day after. It all seems too coincidental and I require answers. 

Finally, I am demanding a pro-rata reimbursement of the {$550.00} annual fee I paid for my Platinum Account that AMEX charge. AMEX cancelled my accounts themselves, I didn't cancel them, therefore I paid them a fee for a service of the card that I haven't fully gotten, thus they have taken my money from me without keeping to contract of offering that full service for 12 months. I would like AMEX to reimburse this. 

I look forward to their response. 
Regards, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
This company consistently is violating my FCRA rights by keeping identity theft items on my file and removing or blocking them. I have attached my official signed FTC fraud report which includes numerous off accounts and inquries and public records that need to be removed from my file. I have suffered tremendous stress and scrunity from employers to clean this up to even keep my job or get a job for the longest and this company is damaging my financial life and making it hard for me to even take care of my family. I have one time where they removed a public record from XX/XX/2014 and put it back on there without any explanation of saying why they put a public record thats not mine back on my report after i got the courts to remove it. I have 3 public records thats on my file due to identity theft and I have contacted the courts and they keep telling me they have listed them as fraud and are willing to talk to the credit bureaus about this but the credit bureau is hiring a third party company to verify this information and no one never reaches out to the courts at all to get this removed from my file permanently. I would like for all these fraudulent accounts removed from my file immediately and my report updated accordingly I have attached my FTC fraud form which lists ever fraud/identity theft accounts that needs to be removed.

Complaint:
I used the GI bill for college funding. It was claimed that I was overpaid {$1600.00} and the account went into collections. I disputed the debt with XXXX, Transunion, XXXX, and the VA. I paid the debt to the VA not as admission or ownership of the debt but to salvage my credit. The result of the dispute was that the reporting would stay. I do not dispute the event, rather the legality of reporting a non-consumer finance debt in which there were no provisions, terms, or rates agreed to. 

The 2015 CRA settlement language reads " Do Not Report debt that did not arise from a contract or agreement to pay '' This was not a consumer finance transaction and therefore should not be reported to CRA 's as a loan or anything else. There is no document in which I signed or consented to this debt. There is no explanation or verification of the debt.
