Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: TX
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
When I attempt to visit my loan servicer 's ( Ocwen ) website to view information about my mortgage, I am told that it does not recognize my login ( i.e. my email address ) and then am informed by the website " Oops! Something went wrong. '' when I attempt to confirm/add my " new '' email address so I can log into their system by providing my loan number, last four digits of my SSN, and my home 's zip code.

This very same issue occurred previously ( approx. 1 year ago ), and after finally connecting with a member of Ocwen 's team via phone, I was assured the glitch had been fixed, but it has clearly not been.

Interestingly, though, in the interim I have continued to receive emails from Ocwen regarding my payment status and offering refinance options at the same address the company claims is not associated with my account for login purposes. As the rate of my ARM mortgage continues to increase above market rates, it sure seems coincidental that Ocwen 's system is still unable ( unwilling? ) to allow me access to my account and information re : my mortgage.

Company: Community Loan Servicing, LLC (formerly known as Bayview Loan Servicing, LLC)
State: MS
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Other type of mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
When I was deemed a XXXX XXXX XXXX and unemployable Veteran, I put in for a hardship under the Obama Mortgage relief to reduce my payments from almost {$800.00} a month to a lesser a month payment. They reduced my payment to {$240.00} a month and extended my payments to 480 months. I had never heard of a 40 year mortgage, also even though I had gotten my remaining balance down to {$18000.00} now my remaining balance is over {$23000.00}. It was never explained that out of the {$240.00} I pay each verbally or in writing that only {$17.00} goes to the principal. That explains why my payoff has went from {$18000.00} to {$23000.00}. On top of all of that I am forced to have an escrow even though I am tax exempt due to being aXXXX XXXX XXXX Vet, also I pay my own home owners insurance via bank draft. As of XX/XX/XXXX there was a {$1200.00} in escrow. Last year the escrow had gotten almost to {$2000.00} and then XXXX out. It is something wrong because I haven't missed nothing but 1 payment in the pass two years, but on my credit report it shows 2 or more missed payments.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was result of identity theft

Complaint:
Over 3 years ago I was notified through XXXX XXXX that a fraudulent account in my name was opened and in collections with XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, NV. 
I immediately disputed this fraudulent account with all 3 credit bureaus as well as XXXX XXXX. 
I submitted the fraud claim and all necessary documentation to support said claim to XXXX XXXX at which time this debt was removed from my credit report ( s ) and no further attempts to collect said debt was made until XX/XX/2021. 
I received by mail at my new address a collection notice from Convergent Outsourcing , Inc demanding payment on behalf of XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$1500.00}. 
I have never resided in the State of Nevada, I resided in XXXX XXXX, CA for over 6 years until my relocation to XXXX XXXX XXXX CA on XX/XX/2021. 
I attempted to resolve this matter with Convergent Outsourcing , Inc informing them this account was opened fraudulently and disputed through XXXX XXXX over 3 years ago. They refused to acknowledge and accept the information I provided to you in this letter so I contacted and filed a complaint with the XXXX. 
Within 24 hours I received a call from XXXX XXXX not Convergent Outsourcing, Inc informing me they were contacted by the XXXX  at which time I informed them of the above information provided in this letter. I was told they had no record in their system of said debt and I informed them it was disputed over 3 years ago and no further collections were attempted and to please contact Convergent Outsourcing , Inc and advise them this account was opened fraudulently and resolved through your fraud department and to cease any further attempts to collect this debt. 
This morning XX/XX/2021 I received notification from XXXX XXXX that Convergent Outsourcing , Inc has reported to XXXX a collection account opened XXXX the amount of {$1500.00}. 
This attempt to collect a debt fraudulently opened in my name in a State I have never resided in is unlawful and extremely unethical. 
I am XXXX and on a fixed income. I have outstanding credit and no history of any collections and or delinquent account ( s ). 
This is grossly effecting my credit worthiness. 
Your assistance in resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: TX
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: Store credit card
Issue: Trouble using your card
Sub-issue: Account sold or transferred to another company

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX, my credit limit ( s ) was reduced to just a few dollars above my balance even though I have consistently paid the minimum due or more. My interest rate also increased from XXXX to XXXX ( v ). I do not feel that it is an ethical way to do business. Whenever this happens, my utilization rate increases and my credit score is negatively affected. 

This problem is only occurring with Synchrony Bank. They are buying the account and lowering my credit limit within dollars of my balance. In essence, I am paying more in interest and very little is being applied to my principle. 

This is a win-win for the credit card company and a lose-lose for me. 

What rights do I have as a consumer? I have a 100 % payment history and this limit lowering has happened on all of the accounts that SYNCHRONY BANK has acquired.
