Company: LoanCare, LLC
State: VA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: FHA mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
In XXXX an overpayment was made to my escrow account with Loancare in excess of {$2000.00}. A check was mailed out as reimbursement, however I did not receive that check and was only made aware of it when I was notified by Loancare that we had not cashed the check. The noticed indicated that I should contact a XXXX XXXX to have the check reissued, however I have never been able to get in touch with her. My mortgage was then sold to XXXX XXXX in XXXX, making it even more difficult for me to contact anyone regarding the overpayment of my escrow with Loancare. 

This battle has been going on for years. I contact customer service, customer service tells me to email customersupport@myloancare.com with the subject of Attn XXXX XXXX, I get assigned a ticket number, and all communication stops. Over and over and over again. 

The most recent communication I have from them dates back to XX/XX/XXXX when I initiated another claim. I was assigned a ticket number on XX/XX/XXXX with a promise someone would be reaching out shortly. In XX/XX/XXXX I reached out again stating that I had not been contacted regarding the referenced ticket number. I received a response on XX/XX/XXXX stating they were looking into the matter and have heard nothing since. 

Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I reached out to LoanCare again and learned that customersupport@myloancare.com was decommissioned 2 months ago. I waited to speak with a supervisor, however none were available to speak with me. I am now at a loss on what to do to recover my money and need any assistance I can get.

Company: TOYOTA MOTOR CREDIT CORPORATION
State: TX
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Billing problem

Complaint:
We have a fixed rate auto loan with XXXX XXXX. We pay extra on the loan most months and noticed that the amount due on the bill fluctuates each month which should not be possible given that the loan terms are fixed. ( Background : My career and XXXX XXXX are both in finance ). 

I called XXXX XXXX today and spoke to employee ID # XXXX. I described the problem and was forced to listen to a recording about how additional funds were not applied to principle unless one were to jump through a bunch of hoops after each payment to get the additional funds applied to principle. What they do instead is apply the additional payment to future payments. 

By doing this they are overcharging me in interest as the additional payments are not impacting the outstanding principal balance they are intended for. The outstanding principal balance is the input in the calculation made each month when payment is made to derive how much of the payment goes to interest with the remainder going to principle ( as per any standard amortization schedule ). 

This practice is dishonest if not illegal. Why would anyone decide to give the lender money in advance if it has no impact on the total interest paid over the life of the loan? Literally they are taking this money as if I were now lending them cash interest free or if I am being paid interested on my advanced payments, they are creating a potential tax liability for me that isnt getting accounted for when I pay income tax. 

I asked the kid on the other line to tell me where on the loan documents I could find this unconventional and possibly illegal practice defined. He could only point me to the bill and didn't seem to realize that the bill was not an addendum to the contract or even on the same legal level. Finally, he asked " How can I help you? '' as if it wasn't clear what I was requesting to happen. The call was ended unresolved. 

Later after reading the loan documents I found where credits were applied in reverse order and it suggests that interest is also paid ( see attached documentation ).

Product: Mortgage

Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
My mortgage company sent us a letter in XXXX stating we were six months past due. We were only 5 months past due but rather than argue, we paid the mortgage current. I received another letter in XXXX stating I was 5 months past due and that I owed XXXX - XXXX payments. I immediately called them to let them know that they received XXXX payment per their instruction and that I had additionally made another payment in XXXX. Their attorneys have records of both of these payments. Ive called at least 10 times and their agents tell me that they can see there is a mistake on the ledgers on their end and they will send it to a supervisor to fix. This has been going on for more than a month and they havent updated their records yet and are threatening foreclosure.

Complaint:
The existence of a derogatory rating on my account is causing me significant concern. I am deeply worried about its potential impact on my credit.

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

Complaint:
I lost my job and had to relocate home, I contacted the original creditor to end services and they told me I owed nothing else. I have since paid the debt in full to the original creditor, XXXX XXXX, Carter Young, the collection agency will not cease reporting negative information. The whole act is unfair, as I explained to them, I have never received any notification of any balance due, my mail was forwarded, however I never received anything from the original creditor. Therefore it should have never been placed in collections, nor reported negatively on my credit files. I am asking that all negative items including the fact that it was ever a collection be deleted immediately from all credit bureaus. I have no guilt in not paying on time as I had no notice of a bill being due. This is unfair.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
XXXX You have failed to establish that the information you are reporting is accurate. Instead, you merely provided an entry from a computer screen that, for all intents and purposes, proves nothing. I suggest you carefully review the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA, Title 15 U.S.C. 1601 et. seq. ) before proceeding any further.

To summarize, the FCBA ( see 15 U.S.C. 1666 ) requires that you establish the following : No unauthorized charges occurred. 
Charges do not list the wrong date or amount ; There were no charges for goods and services that I didn't accept or weren't delivered as agreed ; You did not make any math errors ; You did not fail to post payments and other credits, such as returns ; You did not fail to send bills to my current address ; Charges for which I asked for an explanation of written proof of purchase along with a claimed error or request for clarification Your next letter must fully establish that the information you are reporting to the credit reporting agencies is accurate. 
As required under 1666 of the FCBA, I expect final resolution of this matter within 30 ( THIRTY ) days and look forward to receiving written confirmation of receipt of this demand as well as a detailed description of all actions you have undertaken in acting on this request. 
Sincerely,

Complaint:
Again, I was a victim of identity theft and this is another request to block or remove the information from my credit file resulting from alleged identity theft. Per FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) you are required to remove/block any accounts not later than 4 business days after the XX/XX/XXXX. Ive already included this report in my previous letter & I am including it again. Also, the information you provided on some accounts are UNKNOWN to me and REMOVED from other bureaus and I have doubts about their accuracy. I found that under section 605b ( a ) XXXX and Equifax shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt and it requires the following documents and statement to remove the disputed accounts on my file : ( 1 ) Appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) A copy of an identity theft report ; ( 3 ) The identification of such information by the consumer ; and ( 4 ) A statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer.

The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) That alleges an identity theft ; ) ( B ) That is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) The filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) This letter is to notify you if you do not BLOCK OR REMOVE the listed account on my report, I will be filing a lawsuit. Ive informed my attorney of my intentions & they are excited to hold you accountable for your willful noncompliance.

Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
I disputed a medical collection with ARS that was reporting on XXXX and XXXX  and requested validation under the guidelines set forth by the FDCPA, Texas Finance Code and HIPAA. ARS responded but did not send any documentation to support their claim that I owe the amount reported. A demand for removal was sent to ARS and they received it on XX/XX/2021. However, instead of removing it as they should have per federal and state law, they opted to report the disputed account to XXXX. This act has severely damaged my credit reporting and is concerning since each account newly reported was in dispute. I have attached documentation to show that the dispute had not been resolved and this act may have possibly violated several consumer protection laws.
