Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
To Whom it May Concern : I am writing this letter to notify you of a continuing violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ) committed by CB-XXXX. 

After several acts of disputes and letter submissions made on my end, each attempt proved futile. At times, some of the requests made were not even acknowledged with a response. As I attach some of the articles in this compliant evidencing correspondence that took place, it is unequivocally clear that I never made a refusal to pay, but gave notice that the claims alleged were disputed. Due to their negligence, noncompliance, and refusal to delete UNVERIFIED information from my consumer file, it has cost me tremendously in regards to employment opportunities, residency approvals, loan/credit line approvals, and administrative fees for the dispute process.

Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: NC
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint:
I currently have a HELOC with PNC Bank on my primary residence which has been in place approximately 10 years with 100 % on time payments. On XXXX XXXX 2017 I began the process of applying for a new HELOC on the same property with PNC. This is a first mortgage since there is no other lien on the property. 

Over the next 3 months I invested a considerable amount of time satisfying their requirements for income verification. I am a real estate investor which meant coming up with hours of documentation for them at my expense. 

Once my income was verified I was told we would need a full appraisal. We spend many hours and dollars getting the house in top shape for the appraisal only to be told we had to have a second appraisal. 

After the second appraisal we were informed the collateral was not satisfactory. Since that time I have made numerous requests for copies of the appraisals to discern what exactly did not meet their guidelines and if perhaps something had been misrepresented in one of the two appraisals. 

The only response I received was a mailed copy of photos from one of the appraisals. This was simply 32 photos of the home with no written materials of any sort attached. There was no description, no value attached, or any explanation of any kind as to the outcome of the appraisal. 

Since that time I have made numerous email requests to both my contact persons with PNC and neither will respond to me at this point or give me any reason why the 2 appraisals will not be released to me. 

Since this was a first mortgage on my property and I have an interest in insuring an accurate appraisal was done, I see no justification for the bank not releasing to me the appraisals so that I may fully understand the reason for my rejection. 

My wife and I have credit scores of XXXX and XXXX with no negative marks of any kind on our extensive 30 year financial history. If the reason for our loan rejection was simply the appraisal information, as was indicated to us, I think we have a right to at least receive a copy of those two documents along with an explanation of why the collateral is not sufficient, especially since it is much improved today over what it was 10 years ago when they first approved it for a first lien HELOC. 

Thank you for your help.

Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Received bad information about your loan

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX university inflated their abilities to land students with jobs as well and the salary amount. And when I was initially given the loan for the school I was working a part time job, and they didnt even ask for a co-signer. The loan amount was XXXX for XXXX XXXX University. I have had issues paying my private loan due to the amount, even with income based repayment. Some years back I was having trouble paying my private loan and they rushed me into forebearance without offering any other help or repayment possibilities. Multiple times they have tried to push me into forebearance and then today XX/XX/18 I made a phone call because my job start date was pushed back and the lady I spoke with on the phone asked me 3x if I wanted forebearance and I said no each time because I do not want to add to my principal. And after the 10 minute conversation, she stated, ok well let me process this forebearance for you and she asked me if I agree and I once again stated no. This deceptive practice is why my original loan went from XXXX to XXXX initially. And now Im saddled with these loans that Im struggling to pay and Im fed up with it. There was income based repayment options offered this time but at the end of that conversation is when she threw in processing the forebearance. There is zero explanation on what forebearance does and the only reason I know now is from ample research. This company ruined my life.

Sub-issue: You told them to stop contacting you, but they keep trying

Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX For the last several months I have received a daily recorded phone call from a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The message states this is XXXX XXXX XXXX and you need to call XXXX and reference ID number XXXX. Ive ignored it over and over and over knowing that I had no debt to be collected and assuming it was a scam. Finally after being woke myself on a day off and having the grandchildren woke up when visiting I decided to call it back and see if I could get it stopped. On XX/XX/XXXX I called them back. They refused to let me talk to a XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX insisted she could take care of the matter. I gave the ID number and they were looking for somebody named XXXX. I informed them there was not and have never been anybody named XXXX at this number and to please stop calling. They told me they would remove our number. Again this morning they called leaving the same recorded message more than 24 hours after I ask them to remove our number. I called them back and got a gentleman that I couldnt understand and again ask for XXXX and was told that he doesnt talk to people. He only leaves messages but they would let me talk to a supervisor. I got somebody that told me her name was XXXX XXXX. She told me that she would remove our number and it would take 24 hours ( same story I got more than 24 hours ago ) and that if they called again I could call XXXX. I informed her I was filing a complaint against them because I had already ask them to remove my number and told her I was turning them in as a scam company since they had nobody there named XXXX XXXX XXXX. She tells me they do have that person but he only leaves messages. To repeat and be clear the message we get it recorded and not a personal message. She then just talked over me telling me a scripted message about them removing the number in 24 hours when it has already been more than 24 hours since I ask them to remove my number. 
They call from one of 3 numbers : XXXX XXXX XXXX The follow is the dates and times I have that they have called dating back to XX/XX/XXXX. Unfortunately I had deleted anything further back than that. 
XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX I looked them up online and it appears their mailing info would be as follows.

This institution is notorious for inconsistency and ill compassion. Previous fee credits were bank errors.
