Company: PREFERRED CREDIT INC
State: TX
Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Getting the loan

Complaint:
This company has predatory lending practices and has not honored the agreement that was discussed between the preffered credit rep and the titanium rep and communicated to me. The company is rephrasing cash savings for the 0 apr any lending company can offer as an incentive. Also in talking to the project specialist they said my.apr was not established by my credit rating which at the time was between XXXX to XXXX. I was also mailed a revised contract that had a different apr rate orignal.apr was 21. 20 % and now it's 20.60 % on my online account so why was it lowered.? 
I am not mistaken about the incentive I was offered. As consolation prize they want me to clear 36 month tem loan in 2 monthsand they wont charge me interest? That would require me to make {$400.00} payments monthly They have sympathy for me but they should have also done their due dilgence to screen the companies they provided financial services to theough solucitation. The customer service representative was also impolite. Since I've paid 770 to date only 400 isj dollars has went to principal on {$1600.00} dollar loan as military spouse and vet I know the mla act covers up to 36 %. I notified the specialist as well that I was being overcharged in interest in addition the finance charge and premium service fee?. I want the 6 months of no interest/cash savings honored. My next resolve is to file a complaint with the ftc. I have no problem paying off the balance. I would like to do it in the allotted time I was given. Please see the email i sent to furyher discuss.. Especially how contrite their service rep was with me. I feel like I'm being preyed upon again with payday loan agreement terms. That's not what I signed up for. Credit cards financing are not this predatory. The company is listed as a financial institution surely they can fix this issue of fraudulent service. I can provide the altered original contract sent to me by them. I filled a complaint with XXXX. The company did not want to honor the agreement

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Public record information inaccurate

Complaint:
I am writing to request the removal of bankruptcy reporting from my credit reports. I have disputed this item with Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX. Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX responded and verified bankruptcy with third-party XXXX. I have received the Results of the Reseller Dispute from the XXXX file in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq ). As of XX/XX/XXXX, the dispute information was removed from my file at XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX XXXX dispute filed with Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX but has not received a response. I have attached a dispute letters results from XXXX with my driver 's license and social security card for verification. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) section 623 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( B ), it is required that credit bureaus verify the full social security numbers and dates of birth from the courts before reporting public information such as bankruptcies, evictions and/or criminal histories. However, the Privacy Act of 1974 and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 5.2 prohibit the courts from reporting the full social security numbers and dates of birth on all publicly available court records. As a result, any bankruptcy written is unverifiable and violates federal and state law, as stated above. I believe this violates my rights under the FCRA and could subject the credit bureau to a class action lawsuit should a similarly situated class decide to pursue such action. Therefore, I request that bankruptcy reporting be removed from my credit reports immediately. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to receiving confirmation of the removal of the bankruptcy reporting from my credit reports.

Complaint:
I previously sent a dispute letters addressed to the Credit Reporting Agencies requesting that the Credit Bureaus update, correct, and remove the disputed erroneous accounts that are reporting inaccurate information on my Credit file. I have read that the Credit reporting Agencies are required to report accurate information and investigate and correct any accounts reporting erroneously. I am submitting this CFPB complaint to follow up the previous CFPB complaint I submitted 15 days ago complaining and requesting the same disputes. Also, according to the FCRA, 15USC 1681i, the Credit reporting Agencies are required to finish their investigation within 30 days and send me copies of the results of investigation. However, 3 months had passed and the Credit Bureaus have failed to send me copies of documents they are required to send me and claimed that the accounts are verified. This action by the Credit Bureaus is a clear violation of a consumer 's rights. I am requesting to the Credit Bureaus to please correct and or remove the following accounts from my Credit report : XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$26.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$3000.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX Balance Owed : {$860.00} XXXX  XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00}

Sub-product: VA mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
Week of XXXX XXXX I called NEWREZ, my mortgagee handling company about unpaid mortgage insurance to company called XXXX XXXX XXXX. Insurance payment was due on XX/XX/2020 for XXXX . Long story short, after spending 15 plus hours on the phone waiting and arguing about it not being paid, the company basically said the check was mailed XX/XX/2020 and was still outstanding and there was nothing they could do. 

I told them to cancel the check and I would pay it myself once my escrow was refunded. They told me there was no guarantee that they would cancel the check but would try. 

I called my third party representative to the insurance company, XXXX  XXXX XXXX, and talked to a person XXXX about what to do. She told me that I would have a lapse in coverage if I paid the insurance because the banks get a grace period of 45 days and I do not. 

SO I called NEWREZ back and they told me they cancelled the check. I checked my account and they still never refunded my escrow. I basically told them that they were going to send out another check and pay the insurance. After a lot of arguing they finally said they would mail the check on XX/XX/2020. Now here I am XX/XX/2020 and the insurance company still doesn't have my escrow money. NEWREZ keep dropping my calls on purpose now or their phone system is just that XXXX. 

So to rap this up, I have a missing money in my escrow of XXXX XXXX my insurance still hasn't been paid, and I cant refinance my current mortgage because I cant put my new mortgage company name on the insurance till they get paid. I'm pretty sure they took my money and spend it on XXXX and they can't pay anyways. I'm about to file a police report about the felony levels of theft but wanted to try the CFPB first. 

Thanks for your time.
