Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.
State: CA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit

Complaint:
Today I was garnished {$130.00} ( 25 % ) of my check and don't understand why. My payroll department emailed me a document showing a court order of {$2200.00} garnishment. I had never heard of Midland finding before and never had a credit with them, let alone a balance owed. I called Midland and they claimed to be a debt collection company and said if I hadn't been notified correctly that I have to take that up with XXXX Court House, that there is nothing they can do. I don't know how they can do this without proving this is my debt and never notify me of being sued. How is it they can just sue anyone for anything without proof?

I 've tried to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX ( formally XXXX XXXX ) and they 've denied my request. I 'm filing a complaint on this judgement because it was unfair and inconsiderate. This is the letter Ive sent to them. 

To Whom It May Concern, Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read this letter. I just pulled my credit report, and discovered that a late payments was reported on [XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ] for my account [ loan account number XXXX ]. 

During that time, my mother fell XXXX XXXX, and I was the only one left to care for her. As such, I had to leave my job, and my savings went toward her healthcare expenses. I fell on very rough times after she XXXX XXXX, and was unable to make my car loan payments. 

I realize I made a mistake in falling behind, but up until that point, my payment history with you had been spotless. When I was able to gain employment once again, I quickly resumed paying my student loans, making them a priority. Then i was hospitalized for a few weeks and it cause me to lose another job. 

I 'm not proud of this black marks on my record, its 5 of them, and I would be extremely grateful if you could honor this request to remove the lateness from my credit report. It would help me immensely in securing other lines of credit so that I can further improve my credit score.  rebuilding my future. 

If the lateness can not be removed entirely, I would still be appreciative if you could make a goodwill adjustment. 

Thank You.

Issue: Closing an account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
We are a regulated mutual fund. 
Signature Bank opened the account on XX/XX/XXXX, after a process that lasted 2 months ; the account was funded with $ XXXX shortly thereafter with a transfer from our own account with XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX Signature sent a letter stating that the account will be closed on XX/XX/XXXX. They didn't provide any explanation for that. 
We contacted them by email and phone but they didn't explain the reason for their decision. 
I talked on the phone with Mr. XXXX XXXX, " Senior Vice President and Group Director '', who arrogantly told me that " compliance would not disclose the reason '', and that we can tell to our investors " whatever we want '' about this problem. He added that " banking is a privilige, not a right ''. 
The only activity carried on on the account was that first incoming wire from our own account with XXXX bank. 

We would like to know the reason why the account was closed. By knowing it, we could find a way to remedy if there is something wrong or something that the bank doesn't like. 

With this action the bank is causing harm to our investors, who are facing huge losses as a direct consequence of the closure of the account ; this also has consequences on the sales of securities in the USA. We believe that while a bank has the right to close a customer 's account, it also has a fiduciary duty towards its clients and in general towards investors and the marketplace.

I am not sure how this happened, I believe that I had made my payments to you when I received my statements.

I check my bank account and noticed that you deducted the money out of my checking account that on the month that you marked me late on my credit report.
