Consumer complaint received 2020-09-06
Company: TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC
State: MD
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
I, XXXX XXXX believes in the credit reporting system as the most important element to the success of the commercial banking system. I am also a proponent of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) as a tool to streamline issues on credit reports that may be dragging down my overall scores. Accordingly, I address each particular issue directly with the creditor in question, before submitting any complaint to the credit bureaus if necessary. Therefore, I desire the following reinvestigation as follows : 1 ) On accounts where late payments are posted, I respectfully request a review of the past payment history and to ascertain if certain payments could actually have been posted late because of an overlap on the 30-days grace period. I realize that this may happen on occasion, and I request only a summary review internally, and do not require any documentation.

2 ) On any account that falls within the 84-month negative reporting timeline, I respectfully request either the deletion of the account if said account was closed, or the elimination of the prior payment if the account it is still active, this is well within the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) guidelines pertaining to obsolete information.

3 ) Any collections must be proved if either a direct collection and/or debt purchase. In either event I request that a true original copy of right to pursue collection be established with each respective credit reporting agency, and if a debt purchase the guidelines proving transfer of ownership must be submitted to all credit bureaus as well as me personally to validate ownership and the right to collect. I am well within my rights requesting proper documentation as administered through the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), in addition to the even stricter guidelines enforced by the office of attorney general in my state of domicile.

I respectfully request each investigation to be reported to XXXX, XXXX  and XXXX  XXXX  within a reasonable time period, hopefully 30-days. I realize that the current Covid-19 crisis could cause delays, so the best efforts of each financial institution and collection agency will be appreciated under the current circumstances. 
XXXX XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: MA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
Equifax is committing fraud on my credit file, and it is harming me. They are allowing a certain account in the amount of {$77.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX cellular to reappear on my file, subsequent to having resolved a dispute about the account in my favor, and having stated as part of that resolution, that they deleted that inaccurate account from my credit file. 

In XX/XX/XXXX, I was a non-traditional, XXXX XXXX XXXX studying a post-XXXX XXXXl program at XXXX XXXX University. I own a home in the town of XXXX, Massachusetts, and I paid real estate taxes to the town and the expenses of running the property, on top of tuition, books, etc., at the time. I was not employed at the time. I had a XXXX college savings plan from which I managed, financially, my student life. 
This is prologue and background. 

I had XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX as my cell phone service provider. I completed my 2 year obligation to them faithfully, not missing a payment. In XX/XX/XXXX of that year, I switched to XXXX XXXX XXXX 's own lower-price subsidiary provider, XXXX XXXX. I took notes during my transition of plans, and I was told by XXXX XXXX XXXX customer service on XX/XX/XXXX, that my final bill of {$77.00} had been paid to XXXX XXXX XXXX, and that my balance to them was {$0.00}. I owed them nothing in other words. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I discovered that XXXX XXXX XXXX had referred this same amount to a collection firm, XXXX. 
So I have spent the better part of 2 years disputing this {$77.00} bill -which is bogus and unequivocally not owed-, with Equifax. The other 2 repositories, XXXX and XXXX immediately deleted the inaccurate information from their copy of my credit report, the first time, based on my online disputes in XX/XX/XXXX, and it has not reappeared on their copies of my credit file. 

Equifax, on the other hand, has allowed this account and very same amount to reappear on my credit file. Furthermore, they've done this subsequent to resolving a dispute ( Confirmation # XXXX ) for the very same inaccurate account and amount, in my favor. I hold this documentation from Equifax dated XX/XX/XXXX,  showing that Equifax deleted the item from my credit file. 

So, I am being defrauded by Equifax, and each time they allow this previously-adjudicated-inaccurate-account, and previously-deleted-account, back on my file, my FICO score drops from XXXX ( where it should be ) to XXXX. 

I want something done about this. 

Thank you, XXXX XXXX

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.
State: IL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: FHA mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
I had applied for a mortgage modification in XXXX when my mortgage fell behind. I dealt with a representative for several months, and then the decision came that i had filed for a modification in XXXX, and I had to wait 2 years to apply again. From the time of the application until now, I had made my mortgage payments as the representative told me as long as I stayed less than 120 days late, I would not be foreclosed upon. 
I received my normal mortgage statement dated XX/XX/XXXX for my next statement due date XX/XX/XXXX. Then I received a notice dated XX/XX/XXXX giving me some options to avoid foreclosure. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a new offer that had never been presented to me before. Chase gave me the option of " bring the loan up to date by creating an interest free subordinate mortgage/lien on the property for the amount of the advance. '' The letter gave me a deadline of XX/XX/XXXX to apply for the option. On XX/XX/XXXX I gathered my information requested, filled out the paperwork, and I faxed ( as requested ) the documentation applying for this modification. 
This morning, XX/XX/XXXX I received a call from a mortgage company I had never heard of before. They were asking me personal questions about my social security number, address and other stuff. I got suspicious because I had no idea who this company was. The woman told me the servicing of my mortgage was just transferred to them. I did not believe her, as I know when a mortgage service is transferred, the customer must be notified XXXX prior. The representative said I would be getting a notice on XX/XX/XXXX. 
I immediately called Chase as I assumed this call was part of a scam trying to get some of my personal information. Chase representative told me that my loan was transferred as of XX/XX/XXXX. She told me I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, which I had not received. I asked her how I could have received 3 correspondences from Chase dated XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX with information regarding mortgage assistance if they had sold my mortgage on XX/XX/XXXX? She did not have an answer. 
My belief is Chase offered me a mortgage solution that would had been beneficial for both parties. I filled out the requested information to pursue it, and when they received my request, they then transferred my mortgage to a new company to avoid having to work with me. Their timeline does not make any sense. If the transfer of my mortgage was on XX/XX/XXXX, why did they wait until XX/XX/XXXX to supposedly send me a letter which I had never received, and why would they had sent out XXXX more correspondences dated after that with offers for me? Then 2 days after I apply for the assistance, I get a call from a new mortgage company I had never heard of? I feel this is a case of fraud and servicing wrong doing. I should be given the chance to apply for the relief they had offered.
