Company: Rocket Mortgage, LLC
State: FL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
My loan/servicing was recently purchased by Rocket Mortgage. I set up my account with their online servicing over the phone with them and had to get my escrow accounts corrected. When I mentioned dropping mortgage insurance, they tried to push me into refinancing, even though I told them no. This was taken care of and there was no reason for them to contact me again in reference to the new servicing. They continually call me to go over my account which I already have done, in an attempt to get me to refinance my loan. They have provided miss-information about refinancing and what they could do. They continue to call and are harassing me even after I've told them I do not want to discuss any type of refinance or review of my loan, since I went through the process with them already. I'm a licensed loan originator and I work on loans every day. I know the process for removing mortgage insurance and shouldn't be told I should refinance. I told them I was not interested in refinancing or looking at any additional loan options. I allowed them to give me a sales pitch and the information they were implying was incorrect, I assume because they have inexperienced employees pushed by managers to badger clients into agreeing to speak with one of their loan officers. 

It is wrong for a company to buy a bunch of loans so that they can legally call and harass the borrowers, and mislead them just so Rocket Mortgage can profit by miss leading people into refinancing their current mortgage.

State: MO
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge 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:
Between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX there were over {$4000.00} in fraudulent charges made on my discover Credit Card. Most of which were online through money broking companies ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX  .... ) Other charges were made by using the card # 's to purchase State Lottery tickets  that yielded the culprit a percentage of the cost of the lottery  tickets. Which was ALL profit, due to the fraudulent use of my card. 

I have had the card for 24 years, and never a problem or late payment. Even when faced with better offers I chose to stay with Discover due to their % 100 money back guarantee concerning non approved charges, Theft, and FRAUDULENT charges.. 

They initially reversed all the charges and sent me a new card ; living up to their claim of having my back % 100. This was last Winter/Spring. They decided to retroactively reinstate ALL the disputed charges .... ( Pause ) .... THE REAL kicker is, I not only was given NO REASONING, I was not given a heads up to the charges either. This has caused so much collateral damage, I have no choice but to take legal action if this can not be settled to my satisfaction.
