Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint:
I have a credit monitoring service with Equifax. I am unable to access my credit report due to some type of error within their system. This has been an ongoing problem with my account for well over a year and a half. I temporarily canceled the service last year due to the frustration of the problem. I was able to recently sign back up and gain access to my credit report but shortly after, the same problem started to reoccur. As a result, I am no longer able to access my tri-merge report with any of my other credit monitoring services i.e. Credit Check Total due to the system error within my Equifax file. I have spent countless hours making phone calls to Equifax to no avail. They continuously send me from department to department and nothing is resolved. They tell me things like, a ticket will be created and escalated and should be resolved within 7-10 days. I have waited several 7-10 day periods and still, the problem exists.

Company: PEOPLE'S UNITED BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: CT
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
Peoples United Bank is harassing us by applying mortgage payments late, making multiple suspicious debits and credits that offset each other, and reporting false interest information to the Internal Revenue Service. Peoples United reported to the IRS less interest paid than was actually paid on a XXXX for XX/XX/XXXX. A separate complaint has been filed with the IRS regarding filing the false XXXX. 

Peoples United Bank did not apply a {$450.00} extra principal payment when it was taken out of my checking account on XX/XX/XXXX. Instead it logged a {$450.00} payment on XX/XX/XXXX, then logged a debit for {$450.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, and 15 days later logged the payment for {$450.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. It also failed to process several written requests to increase the extra principal payment from {$1800.00} per month to {$2200.00} per month on the XX/XX/XXXX of each month. As a result the extra principal payment was applied 3 days late, and then applied 13 more days late. When we requested help the customer service representative, XXXX, told us we completed the form incorrectly and harassed my wife about completing the form correctly. She was extremely rude and inconsiderate.

Complaint:
For this card, I haven't received this physical card and paper statement after I requested it since this XXXX. However, I have other similar credit card related to homedepot and the other one has always sent me the paper statement. So THD/CBNA kept asking me pay only {$12.00} for 3 months but I haven't known it. For the new card open, everything is not set up yet. Normally the bank should send me paper notice to ask payment if it hasn't received the payment, but It didn't send any paper notices to me yet. The only thing THD/CBNA did is : send " delinquency '' report to 3 major credit bureaus. My credit score dropped about 90 points for only {$12.00}. It is so unfair to me!

Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting your free annual credit report

Complaint:
For over ten years whenever I tried to get my free annual credit report from Equifax they have told me that 'online delivery is unavailable for you '. 

Five years ago I was able to telephone them and browbeat the phone rep into emailing it to me. This is obviously ridiculous in and of itself : if they can't trust me online, they can't trust me on the phone. So clearly they CAN trust me, they just WON'T. 

In 2020 I tried to get it, was unable to again, called them up and asked them how I could resolve this situation permanently, and was told that it was impossible and that if it told me that I could not receive my report online, then there was no way to make it possible, and that I was just XXXX outta luck. I finally sent in something via US mail, and never received the report at all. Because of course I didn't. 

I just tried online again, and they just refused again.
