Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
For my XXXX XXXX credit card, I did not get 2 months of e-statements. In additionally, I attempted to make an online payment but the payment did not process. I was not notified that the account was past due as courtesy and since payments are made on time. XXXX refunded the late fee ( see attached ) but would remove the negative reporting of past due 30 days to all 3 credit bureaus. 

I had to call to get my account summary to updated to show payment reflected on my account ( see attached ). I made the payment on XXXX and had to call XXXX on XXXX to ask why my account summary is showing only XXXX available credit when the entire balance was paid off on XXXX of XXXX. I think XXXX is having online technical issues and its negatively impacting customers accounts. XXXX is not being transparent to customers and would prefer to allow false reporting be sent to the credit bureaus. XXXX said payment had to be released and I had to call. When I made the payment online it did state for me to call back or was I notified of the hold. And the payment taken from my bank account on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and its showing in the recent transaction section payment made on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX.

I called about three weeks from today and inquired about the letter that was sent to me about a settlement offer.

Complaint:
On XXXX I paid off my loan in full with a payment of {$210.00}. I have bank records to prove as it was deducted from my checking account. On the moneylion website it is saying I still owe that payment, as well as reporting to the credit agencies that the payment is in collections. 

I have sent several emails to XXXX and only get an automated response. 

I have called the support number 5 times and on hold for more than an hour each time, only to be disconnected, or hung up on as soon as it is answered. 

I have messaged on facebook and been directed to XXXX to " submit a ticket '' but no option once there. 

I am ready to take legal action and this is my last attempt before doing so.

Company: Neuheisel Law Firm, P.C.
State: AZ
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint:
None of the categories provided by the CFPB for initial input of my complaint suited the particular facts of my complaint. The specifics are : I was sued by law firm for Plaintiff to collect on debt incurred by my ex-husband. They obtained judgment against me in the amount of {$1800.00} plus interest and costs. I have been making payments at {$100.00} per month beginning in XXXX, 2016. Nearing the end of payments I reached out to pay the balance by credit card calling numbers provided on pleadings related to the judgment and on their website ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) over multiple days. I also left several messages but never received a call back to this date. I sent a letter with 2 months worth of payments ( {$200.00} - which still has not cleared the bank ) and a letter requesting they provide me with the balance owing so I could pay it in full. I calculate I owed about {$280.00} at that time. People who owe them money are going to have difficulty paying their debt if there is no way to contact them but by snail mail and there is no way to pay the debt other than check and the resources they references they provided on their website are not functioning. I am concerned that they are trying to extend or expand the amount I owe by not accepting final payment.

Consumer complaint received 2019-06-04
Company: Flagstar Bank, N.A.
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
Im writing this to document an egregious error Flagstar Bank made that is causing my family a significant financial hardship, and to seek assistance with remaining in good standing with this organization. 

After a year of making timely mortgage payments, starting in XXXX of 2017, we received a letter stating Flagstar had miscalculated our monthly payment and lowered it by approximately {$400.00}. For the past year, we have continued making timely payments at this new rate. 

We recently received another letter stating that Flagstar had again miscalculated, and we now owe {$7000.00}. This is no small amount! We dont have the funds to cover this, and will have to opt for ttheir Option 2 which is to make monthly payments of {$580.00}. This is on top of the increase they just announced of {$430.00}, costing me an extra {$1000.00} extra per month, which is way outside of the tight budget weve had for the past year! 

In addition, weve already come to question this banks business practices after recently trying to refinance a home equity loan. We were instructed by their personnel to email documents containing sensitive personal and financial details. When I requested a more secure portal or XXXX type of environment to transmit the data, we were informed they had none. I offered my own solution of password protecting a zip file, which I was told couldnt be opened at their end. I found this very surprising for a financial institution that I assume undergoes regular audits. In the end, we canceled the application. 

I was instructed to communicate our issue using a specific email address during a conversation I had with a member of your Customer Service team. I have done so twice and have not received a response.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2020, I received a letter with XXXX County letterhead claiming to be the department of tax administration. It claimed a tax lien and demand for payment. In the body of the letter, they informed me that a copy was sent to my previous employer demanding to garnish 100 % of my income until the debt was settled, and threatened that unless payment was received in full by XX/XX/XXXX, they would file suit at the court. The return to address, and callback numbers listed were to NCC in XXXX, VA ( and to their PO box ) attempting to collect on a debt. I called them to inform that threatening legal action, wage garnishment, tax liens, and posing as county officials was at the least, highly unethical. They hung up on me twice, didn't answer my phone call again, and when I called from my wife 's phone, they picked up and told me " go ahead and call the county '' in a mocking voice.

Complaint:
The credit bureau is refusing to delete two collection accounts on my credit report that are not mine. They are all reporting under the same collection company called " XXXX XXXX '' with different account numbers. The first account is for {$2900.00} with account number # XXXX. The second account is for {$1000.00} with account number # XXXX. I have spoken to representatives at this XXXX XXXX company and the records that they have do not match my personal information. I was directed to dispute these errors with the credit bureau to have them deleted from my credit but the credit bureau is coming back telling me that I need to contact them back. I am being given the runaround when the issue is really with the credit bureau who does not want to fix their mistake.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
There are two items on my Apple Credit Card that I do not seem to be able to get Goldman Sachs to resolve. I understand they are extremely new to consumer credit cards, but it is nearly impossible to get any documentation out of them and to keep track of anything going on with the investigations. I am uncertain if they ever look at the supporting documentation provided via email. The transactions I am having issues with are {$560.00} from XXXX on XX/XX/2021 and {$290.00} from XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/2021. I have brought these to XXXX 's attention several times but have been unable to workout a proper resolution for either. I have never received the purchase from XXXX to this day and have been unable to resolve the issue with the company ( it is an independent seller within XXXX platform that sold me shoes but never delivered ), and XXXX  delivered another item in place of what I actually ordered in XXXX and I've been unable to resolve the issue either with Goldman or XXXX. For above reasons, I'm looking to dispute both transactions and have {$860.00} credited to my Apple Credit Card.
