Complaint:
I am filing this report because I was made aware of two accounts on my credit report that are not mine. The only reason I was even checking my credit report is because my son asked me if I could co-sign for him to lease a car and I wanted to make sure I would be approved. The accounts that do not belong to me are from a company called XXXX Card. I don't even know what these accounts are for but I did not open them and I did not authorize anyone else to open them in my name. I never contributed to any payments that might have been made towards these accounts nor did I gain any type of benefits such as money, goods, services or anything else as a result of these accounts being open in my name.

In process of purchasing a new home form XXXX XXXX XXXX we were required to use it 's affiliated mortgage company Home American Mortgage. The process started in lateXX/XX/XXXX, at first initiation we stated we wanted a conventional loan, 20 % down payment.

XXXX was again prompted that we sought conventional loan we needed guidance as to what we could be doing to raise scores and be sure we were in good standing with credit scores. Our real estate agent was also in contact with XXXX, questioning why he had not spoke to us, gave any repose to questions or even pulled credit to see what our scores were.

Complaint:
Due to the pandemic, I was laid off from my job in XX/XX/2020. I called Fifth Third Bank at that time to see if they offered any assistance. At that time I was advised of their Covid-19 Payment Assistance Program, which would allow payment assistance for a predetermined amount of time. I was assured there would be no negative reporting to the credit bureaus while in the program. It was in XX/XX/2020 that I started the program. However, in XXXX and XXXX of XXXX, I was reported 30 days late to the credit bureaus. I am still currently in the program and have met and continue to meet all of my obligations under the program. I immediately called for help with this situation. I was advised that notes would be taken and someone would look into the situation. To date I have not returned to work, nor has this been resolved by Fifth Third Bank. Im very thankful for the program as it has been a tremendous help. I would just like the negative reporting while in the program to be removed.

Complaint:
I am writing to dispute accounts and inquiries that are reported on my consumer credit report referenced below that are the result of identity theft and any unauthorized inquiries and demand verifiable proof bearing my signature/electronic signature. I never authorized such action and this constitutes a violation of my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 605B. Block of information resulting from identity theft [ 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ] and Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 604. Permissible purposes of consumer reports [ 15 U.S.C. 1681b ]. I have contacted these companies and found these actions were initiated without any compliant validation or original proof from any of the companies reporting. These accounts and inquiries are not factual since I never authorized them and are therefore the result of identity theft and or the illegal reporting of my consumer information by creditors and or 3rd party data furnishers.

Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Seized or attempted to seize your property

Complaint:
My mother died on XX/XX/XXXX, leaving me as executor. I recently received a foreclosure notice on the property our family lived in for almost 60 years. According to the notice, in XXXX my parents took out a loan for {$40000.00} from Chase Bank, to remodel the house. At that time, BOTH of my parents were retired, living on a combined Social Security of about {$1100.00} - {$1200.00} per month. Their payment was to have been over {$500.00} per month, and would last until XXXX, when my mother would have been XXXX years old. On top of that, the interest on the loan was 8.725 %. My father then passed away in XXXX, leaving my mom to make these payments on her SS check of slightly over {$600.00} per month. In XXXX, they made an agreement to lower the payment, but extend the loan until XXXX, when my mother would have been XXXX years old! As I said, both of my parents had retired years before taking out this loan. In addition, both of them had TERRIBLE credit! Why would anyone give a loan like this to someone, under these conditions. Also, I see that one of the stipulations in the loan is that they will not let the property deteriorate. At the time of the loan, the west wall of the house had already detached from the rest of the house. The floor on that end of the house was sinking into the crawlspace. The ceiling in the attached garage was caving in. If Chase Bank had bothered to look at the house in advance, there is no way they would have given this loan to my parents. My mother was able to pay off only about {$10000.00} of the loan before she died, and the house is now being foreclosed on. As we work to settle her estate, the house and contents will be sold, but most of the money will go to settle this debt. I feel that allowing my XXXX and XXXX year old parents to take out this large loan on a house that should have been condemned should be considered a " predatory loan '', and the loan should be forgiven.

Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
On XXXX Enhanced Recovery Company ( ERC ) reported a 'new ' collection from " XXXX '' to my report dropping my score by 20 points without notice or warning. I obtained a more detailed report from XXXX and saw that ERC opened this account on XX/XX/XXXX and states that I owe XXXX. ERC also obtained my credit report on XXXX. I do not owe XXXX any money and there is no reason to report this debt as if it is new with no communication from the agency that has had access to all of my current personal and contact information as of XXXX. Based on previous credit reports and information obtained from my research, the only XXXX debt on my credit was successfully disputed and removed in XXXX and XXXX because it was fraudulent and I did not open this account. The debt is being sent to different agencies and reported as 'new ' and it is ruining my credit that I have worked hard for over the past few years. I did not contact the company because I have dealt with them in the past over other debts that were obviously not mine ( using an address I have not lived at for nearly 10 years ) and they are rude, nasty and disrespectful. They also attempt to get you to agree to pay so they can start collecting on time-barred debts. This company is illegally trying to collect a debt that is not mine after 5 years and successfully disputing this account with other agencies and having it removed twice. This company has no interest in speaking with customers over fraudulent accounts and just want to verify your information, new or old, so that they can look for other debts of yours to collect on. This company has used the pandemic as a means to recover debts by reporting a collection to my credit to force me and others to pay for deletion to keep their company open during this time. I have disputed this collection once again with XXXX  and XXXX  as soon as I saw the notification early this morning.

Complaint:
I have a XXXX credit card and used it for a purchase on XX/XX/18 of {$21.00}. I do not remember getting a bill or misplaced it with other mail. I received a bill on XX/XX/18 for my {$21.00} charge with a fee of more than the charge of {$22.00}. Now, my {$21.00} bill is {$44.00}. I called the bank who issued my card Synchrony Bank, at XXXX, on XX/XX/18 and spoke to XXXX, badge number XXXX and he waived the charge bringing my balance down to {$21.00}. 

I called again today wanting to know the rate of interest, was told it was 16.65 %. I asked why the charge for fees were {$22.00} and she said about the rate when I signed up. 

I told her I would be issuing a complaint about excessive charges. She said she would do a complaint on her end too. I still, at 16.65 % can not see why the fee charge of $ XXXXwas on my bill. That charge is way over the 16.55 % fee. 

I am not doing this for me, but people who can not afford to get fees like this and would appreciate it if your agency can check into Synchrony Bank and fees charged.
