Complaint:
I was served Execution for Ejectment papers on about XX/XX/XXXX, the papers stated that the authorities would be at my house to move my belongings out on XX/XX/XXXX. I went to the Courthouse and filed for a motion to stay. At that time, the judge granted me the stay, after I explained I had applied for a mortgage modification. The judge then asked the attorney representing PHH Mortgage Services, roughly how long does it take to get a decision on the modification, the attorney said 15 to 45 days. It was at that point she granted my stay until XX/XX/XXXX. Since that time I have been going back and fourth between the attorney and the mortgage company trying to get a rescission on the completed foreclosure. PHH wont review the modification application, because it states that the foreclosure is completed.

When I ask PHH to consider doing a rescission, I was told that I would have to contact the attorney for that to be considered. When I finally got in touch with attorney asked them to consider doing it, they said they would have to get those instructions from PHH.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
Back in XX/XX/XXXX I reached out to XXXX XXXXl after I noticed a huge drop in my credit score. They had reported a 60 day overdue notice to the credit bureau. I got my new XXXX lease in XX/XX/XXXX. Paid the first payment at the dealer, and awaited my first statement from XXXX XXXX for the next payment, so that I could use that information to set-up my online account and start to make payments. When I left the dealer, no lease account information was given, they said I had to wait for my first XXXX XXXX statement in the mail. A month went by into XXXX and I never received a statement. I called the leasing department of XXXX XXXX in XXXX VA multiple times asking them how I can pay my next bill. No one returned my calls. I finally received the statement in the mail for those last 3 payments for {$1300.00} and paid it immediately upon receipt in XXXX, as you can see from the attached screenshot. In XXXX I reached out to XXXX XXXX to have them investigate what happened and for their credit team to reach out to the credit bureaus to remove this late payment from my report. I called back multiple times and spoke with agents saying there was still no response on the case, no updates. Finally I spoke with someone on XX/XX/XXXX and that agent told me their credit department found their report to the credit agency to be valid, as my payment was late. Which clearly we already knew as I was late paying because I had no way to pay it, without an account number from them. On that date they submitted a new case, case # XXXX to have a one time courtesy removal of this and report to the credit agencies. They said it would take at most 45 days to remove from my credit report. I have called back multiple times since XXXX, and have gotten told there is still no response on my case, every agent says they send an " escalation '' email and I should have a response back in 1-2 business days. After that timeframe, I call back again and get the same response. Every agent also says their internal credit department does not have a phone number for internal employees to call, or for myself to call and ask for an update. This is unfairly stayed on my credit report since XXXX now and I've had enough of the back and forth with no resolution!

Complaint:
XXXX  ; XXXX  and Transunion should not be reporting a collection/chargeoff in the amount of {$22000.00} on the XXXX - partial account number XXXX. ( Please see page attached from my credit report, along with a copy of my Drivers License and Utility Bill for identification purposes to investigate this complaint. ) The vehicle had numerous issues from the day I purchased it. I tried working with the dealership to replace the vehicle and they refused to help me. It continued with various noises that none of the mechanics could identify within the transmission. I new transmission was put into the vehicle because I had the extended warranty however, even after doing this the vehicle continued to have problems. The dealership wanted to put another transmission into the vehicle. They were not confident that even doing this, would fix the problem. I called the bank and explained the issues I was running into and told them to come and get the vehicle because I was not going to make another payment on a vehicle that spent more time in the service department continually trying to be fixed. This would end up costing me more than what I was going to spend on the vehicle. ( I have attached documentation and service records of the numerous repairs from XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX which is the last dealership that was working on the vehicle with the extended warranty. ) This account needs to report a {$0.00} balance. There is no outstanding balance due. This false reporting of a collection/chargeoff is seriously harming my credit score. It is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act to not report accurate information on a credit report. I have  contacted the bureaus to remove this however, I have not been successful.
