Company: LendingUSA
State: FL
Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Personal line of credit
Issue: Problem when making payments

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I called Lending USA my personal loan and spoke with a guy who was extremely rude and was having a hard time processing my payment correctly so I asked for a supervisor who I forgot his name to help me to make my monthly payment of {$110.00} like I always do without such a hard time as this day he was able to process the payment. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I check my bank and I see that they refunded the {$110.00} back to my account on XX/XX/XXXX so I called Lending USA to make yet another payment and spoke with a lady who was laughing about the money being refunded back into my account and the payment of {$110.00} was charged again. I unfourtunately do not remember names until the end where Ive been getting super frustrated about something that is not my fault because they are doing something incorrectly on their end. 

Four days ago I believe I received a call from Lending USA his name was XXXX telling me I was late on payment I advised him this is incorrect my payment was processed again on XX/XX/XXXX and I didnt get a refund back like before he tells me I have to email my bank statement as proof so I do and he said it will take two days to process. Everyday I keep calling for an update I have even spoke to supervisor XXXX and on XXXX XXXX tells me that yes the payment is there on the statement but that it pretty much got lost in their system to call XXXX and dispute the charge and then give a call back to process yet another {$110.00} payment as I did on XX/XX/XXXX. I call XXXX spoke with the claims supervisor they tell me theres nothing they can do that the charge cant be disputed because Lending USA already took the payment so while I have XXXX on the phone I call Lending USA which I spoke with a girl because XXXX wasnt available and XXXX tells them they cant dispute the charge since they took the payment and the girl just tells me they have to escalate this yet again she said it will take a couple of days when its been almost a week and they cant find my payment anywhere in their system and its clearly in my bank statement and cant be disputed. Im afraid I will lose this money and have to pay them twice the amount that I usually pay for a month for this loan it would be like theyre stealing {$110.00} from me just because they lost it somewhere in their system.

Sub-issue: Problem with the interest rate

Complaint:
ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE. The cost of your credit as a yearly rate. 
XXXX % FINANCE CHARGE. The dollar amount the credit will cost you. 
{$2800.00} Amount Financed. The amount of credit provided to you or on your behalf. 
{$20000.00} Total of Payments.The amount you will have paid after you have made all payments as scheduled. 
{$22000.00} Number of Payment ( s ) Amount of Payment ( s ) Payments are due XXXX {$380.00} XX/XX/XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX, I applied at XXXX XXXX to refinance my XXXX XXXX XXXX after leasing for XXXX months. I received the refinance documents from XXXX XXXX with the information above on the balance of {$25000.00} after the end of the lease. I gave a down payment of {$5500.00} with a balance of {$20000.00}. When I received the documents with the Annual Percentage rate of XXXX on the {>= $1,000,000} = {$2800.00} which is stated above in the BMW documents. The right percentage amount should be {$1000.00} and not {$2800.00}. 

If you divide their interest charges of {$2800.00} into XXXX-month payments the result should be {$48.00} of interest on a monthly basis. 

I have been making payments of {$400.00} dollars a month into my account instead of {$380.00} because I would like to pay off as soon as possible. 

Since I started making payments into my account on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX had charged to my account higher interest than what it is stated in the documents. Also, I have been making additional payments to apply to the principal. XXXX XXXX as posted into the interest instead into the principal balance. I think that is a wrong entry into my account because my balance should be lower than what it shows now. 

I have contacted XXXX XXXX on various occasions because of the same reason, too higher interest charged and my extra payments it is not applied toward the principal. The Financial Representative stated that BMW collected their interest in advance which Is wrong because the balance will be higher than what is supposed to be on a monthly basis. Another Rep told me that XXXX collected the interest on a daily basis of {$290.00} which I was not aware of. That it is not in the document I signed. 

Please see the attachment of the payment stub so you can see the payments made since XX/XX/XXXX -XX/XX/XXXX because of the two payments in XX/XX/XXXX, I misplaced.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Public record information inaccurate

Complaint:
sent a dispute letter on XX/XX/XXXX through Certified Mail to Experian requesting a reinvestigation and the Method of Verification for a bankruptcy reporting against me on my credit profile through Experian. Per the FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) : If the Credit Bureau can not VALIDATE the information with the original creditor, they must remove said information from the consumer credit file. I have attached copies of the letter from the US Bankruptcy Court stating they dont report to the credit bureaus. I have also attached a copy of my letter from XXXX saying my credit profile is frozen. How is the credit bureau verifying this alleged public record when the third party provider is frozen? Per the Federal Law, you have exactly 30 days to complete the investigation as outlined per the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623 ( a ) ( 3 ). Experian has been non-compliant and didnt complete the dispute in 30 days. I further remind Experian, as in Wenger v. TransUnion Corp., No. 95-6445 ( C.D. Cal. Nov.14, 1995 ), you may be liable for your willful non- compliance. The account in question needs to be removed immediately for violations against the Fair Credit Reporting Act, no validation in the 30 day time period, no validation with the third party provider of the data. I did not authorize a third party provider called XXXX to report this data against me on Experian. The public record is non compliant, inaccurate, and unverifiable.

Issue: Closing on a mortgage

Complaint:
It has taken years to find out how/where to pursue this complaint. 1997 I had this loan server Ocwen. They had not cashed my payments for three months and were attempting foreclosure I had just had XXXX to stop it I filed bankruptcy. Ocwen took me back to court three times during I had receipts that showed payments were never late and their claims were false. I hired an attorney Ocwen refused to speak with my legal representatives. Ocwen blocked 3 Refi attempts by not providing timely docs. I received notice of additional money owed at end of bankruptcy Ocwen had been charging ( Thru 6mo after b/r ) fees that " prepetition payments '' " alt payment '' " partial suspense '' etc I was told these were charges added because of extra paperwork from bankruptcy but continued until I refinanced away from Ocwen. During Refi as docs were being processed Ocwen increased dollars and escrow covered increases to make loan clear. Exigent circumstances. A year later I received an overpayment for same increase sum. Ocwen was rude, unprofessional, harassing, refused to acknowledge communications and I believe Ocwen took additional fees under cover of bankruptcy and subsequent closing process. Ocwen represented the worst in mortgages as they blocked all attempts to discuss my concerns or credibility to their docs.

Complaint:
I am having a problem with Equifax taking a charge off from XXXX XXXX off of my credit report. The account is not mine and I have never done business with them ever. They are located in Tennessee and that is where my son 's ex wife lives and she has gotten money in my name and has done this several times as we had no idea about it until she left and went back to Tennessee. We are still paying the price for what she did when she was married to him and taking our social security numbers and other forms of ID to get money in our names. I am sick and tired of trying to get this removed from my credit report and would appreciate some help with this. Thank you for your time and for the help in getting this issue resolved. I have contacted Equifax numerous times to get it removed and they refuse to do so. I don't have a phone number to call them at or I would be on the phone with them already and get this taken care of. I know they have had a security breach but that should have already been fixed and yet I am still having to fight with them to get this taken off. I would appreciate any help you can give me on this. Thank you again and I hope this time will be the last time I have to deal with this.
