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 approximately 5 months, I have been attempting to correct an error on my TransUnion Credit Report. There is a XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy dated XX/XX/2019 in my file. This is not my Public Record and it needs to be removed immediately. Furthermore, it is hindering me from being approved for a mortgage. I have contacted TransUnion several times by certified mail and phone calls in attempts to resolve this matter. They claim that they investigated it and verified it with the US Bankruptcy Courts. I contacted the US Bankruptcy Courts myself and was told that they do not verify such information at all which makes proves TransUnion did not verify this public record. The US Bankruptcy Courts sent me out a letter as well explaining and supporting my claim. The XXXX XXXX Bankruptcy is not mine and must be removed alongside of it not being verified as my account. You must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that this is my account and the US Bankruptcy Courts says that it did not verify it but several representatives have said it is verified. This is incorrect information and TransUnion is at fault.

All Credit Bureaus failed to validate all information that was requested in 30 days. These accounts continue to reappear without any validation. 

The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me ( Section 616 & 617 ) if you fail to comply with Federal Law. I am a litigious consumer and fully intend on pursuing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA.

Company: Selene Finance LP
State: FL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Other type of mortgage
Issue: Closing on a mortgage

Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX I wrote Selene Finance on the following : Loan # XXXX I closed on this modification XX/XX/XXXX and on my monthly statement one year later, XX/XX/XXXX they billed me {$210.00} for lawyer fees on this modification. My husband made the payment and did not notice this charge. Selene refused my request on phone for refund of this amount. I told them you can't come back one year later and say opps ... my lawyers are charging a fee. Not reasonable. I closed in my name and Selene did not change their records UNTIL XX/XX/XXXX Statement due XX/XX/XXXX. All this time I made the payments to XXXX XXXX name on statements. These people just can't get this modification right. I have to complain all the time. 
My escrow account is all messed up also. Yearly total incorrect. XX/XX/XXXX statement shows {$710.00} with XX/XX/XXXX taxes paid on your behalf segment as {$210.00} - this is contradiction that it was an attorney fee which I paid because they added it to my monthly mortgage statement as due amount in XX/XX/XXXX in amount of {$1100.00} which my husband paid in error. My regular payment is {$900.00}. I sent them a complete breakdown of my escrow account and showed how they were incorrect. They send double monthly statements. 
At modification my payment was suppose to be {$890.00} but due to a escrow shortage it was XXXX. A difference of {$17.00} which they said was going to a shortage. Yet my starting escrow on XX/XX/XXXX was XXXX. Can't get an explanation as to why payment is up and where does the XXXX go. I have all the papers I sent to them. I can fax to you if you want to see the correct figures. They never explain the difference and why they can't get it right. I have to keep calling. 
Breakdown : XX/XX/XXXX Bal XXXX Due XX/XX/XXXX Then Due XXXX Bal XXXX Due XX/XX/XXXX Bal XXXX Then they increased escrow {$290.00} per month up til due XX/XX/XXXX. So XXXX x 12 = {$3500.00} plus the 2 x XXXX = XXXX comes to grand total of {$4000.00}. ; XXXX You take that amount and pay off taxes XXXX and insurance XXXX = {$870.00} balance in escrow. They show {$130.00} on my statement due XX/XX/XXXX Where is my {$730.00} -- -- difference they show and I actually paid???? You won't get a clear response from them. This is not an A RATED mortgage co.

Complaint:
LENDER : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, GA XXXX Application XXXX XXXX Merchant : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX sold us an on demand hot water heater to replace the one that was not working. They promised a zero down and zero interest. Sure, I took the deal and signed their paperwork. Several days and the bill came in with a 6.99 % interest rate. Paying that off would cost me {$8000.00} on top of the {$12000.00} water heater cost. 
We talked to GreenSky and even with all of the talks they said the loan was already made and COULD NOT BE CHANGED! In addition they have charged me {$1200.00} of Finance Charges that I could not find in the contract. The question is ; why didn't they contact me or XXXX XXXX XXXX when they wrote a loan contract with an interest rate? 
I didn't even have a chance to read the loan to see that they were going to charge interest. 
We have since paid off the loan in order to avoid those harsh interest payments.

Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
I disputed the account because I noticed it was on my credit report and I did not authorize this account. To dispute this account, I mailed a dispute letter, a copy of my FTC report for identity theft, a copy of my police report for fraud/impersonation/identity theft, 3 forms of personal identification ( copies of my driver 's license, my social security card, and one of my recent bank statements from the past 3 months ) along with a copy of the page of my credit report ( s ) on which the account was listed, in an envelope sent to the creditor of the account and I also put copies of the same documents in envelopes sent to all three credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX via USPS certified mail with return receipt, this was more than 60 days ago. The creditor and the credit bureaus have not mailed me a notarized contract with my signature on it within their 30-day allotted timeframe allowed by the FCRA ( Fair Credit Reporting Act ) to validate the account, and thus the account must be immediately deemed invalid, fraudulent, and not my liability, and it is hereby illegal for the credit bureaus and creditors to report this account on my credit report because the account was not validated within the required 30-day timeframe, and so the solution to my complaint is for the credit bureaus and for the creditor to immediately delete this account from my credit report. If the creditors and credit bureaus do not do this, I have the power and the evidence to sue them and win {$10000.00} due to the illegal credit reporting acts that they have committed which continue to harm my credit worthiness and access to financial wealth-building opportunities such as loans for real estate purchases. 

The account was also deleted from my XXXX and XXXX reports as well so in order to correct the inconsistencies between the XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX credit reports, the account needs to be deleted from the XXXX credit report. 

The information for this account listed on my credit report is : CREDITOR : LOANCARE SERVICING C, ACCOUNT XXXX, OPENED XX/XX/2017, BALANCE OF {$0.00} CREDITOR : XXXX XXXX, ACCOUNT XXXX, OPENED XX/XX/2017, BALANCE OF {$0.00}

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting incorrectly to Equifax and XXXX a collection/charge-off in the amount of {$7100.00} on the XXXX XXXX XXXX partial account number XXXX. ( Please see page attached from my credit report. ) The vehicle I purchased had to be brought back to the dealership for repairs. Shortly thereafter the engine of the vehicle blew out. I told the dealership that I would not pay for the previous repairs until they fixed the engine as well. Until the vehicle was repaired I was told I did not have to make any payments. After ( 2 ) missed payments they took the car back. I later learned they sold the vehicle. I have attached a copy of the Bill-of-Sale. I no longer own the vehicle and I no longer have any financial responsibilities to the vehicle. This false reporting of a collection/charge-off is seriously harming my credit score and this line item needs to be removed from my credit report. I have contacted the ( 2 ) bureaus to remove this however, I have not been successful.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint:
I lost my job and am currently experiencing financial hardship. I made a banking error on my end and made a payment out of an account that didnt have enough to cover the automatic payment on XX/XX/XXXX. I did not know my error, until the payment was returned. I knew I had funds coming into my account around the middle of XX/XX/XXXX, so I waited to repay the minimum payment to be sure it cleared. I had a late fee waived in XX/XX/XXXX, as I lost my job due to Covid 6 months prior and was again trying to replace income and was struggling. Its been a struggle in this economy and I havent quite recovered from the XXXX Covid era financially. I called Capital One this during every financial hardship over the last year and a half when I needed to. They typically dont seem to care to help. The first representative I talked to today on XX/XX/XXXX, said the system decided what fees will be refunded and she couldnt help me further. I asked to escalate the issue then I spoke with her supervisor, who flat out was not empathetic, he said he was, but he was saying the words with no action to back it up. He said I would have to take the hit for breaching the card agreement on a late payment that was returned. Nothing he could do and it couldnt be escalated further. Due to the rolling 12 month fee reversal protocol. His tone and everything in between was just following protocol, he didnt care and didnt care to go to bat to help. I was not rude or disrespectful, but upset! He said next time I need to be proactive instead of reactive and then maybe Capital One could work with me. Ok. I wouldnt be surprised if there are lawsuits coming about for fees and the unwillingness to help their customers especially during financial hardships! Almost every other financial institution are taking steps to protect customers from fees during these times which are unprecedented and a lot of consumers are struggling already! They are waiving or working on refunding fees, but not Capital One. I think its crazy they wouldnt refund a {$25.00} fee, knowing Im struggling financially and I havent had one refunded in 11 months, but just missed the cutoff for the rolling 12 months fee reversal system determinations they use and the supervisor was unwilling to escalate further and continued to be absolute on his unwillingness to help me the consumer who is struggling!! He also said he was the highest escalated person I could talk to and he would notate my account of my disagreement with his decision.
