Consumer complaint received 2019-12-11
Company: Netspend Corporation
State: IL
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers
Sub-issue: Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card

Complaint:
Netspend sent me an unsolicited card in the mail leaving me susceptible to fraud. I received an email explaining that they were sending me a card and that I needed to activate it immediately. Only problem is I did not request a card from them nor did I fill out an application for a card nor did I request to become a customer of their bank. Netspend repeatedly sent me unwanted emails putting pressure on me to activate the card. I have excellent credit and do not need a prepaid credit card. I also take ID theft and my data security very seriously which is why I am filing this complaint. Someone could have intercepted the card and activated it. The card and any future transaction would then be done in my name and on my credit. I also could not tell if someone was sending me a gift card or if the card was an actual credit card. All communication was driving me to activate the card for the sole purpose of putting me in a position to pay fees to Netspend. My main concern is the fact that I never initiated any of this activity. I did not contact Netspend or fill out an application to receive one of their products. They had no problem exposing me to fraud

Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: OH
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
NewRez XXXX ShellPoint is engaging in predatory lending practices. They have failed to pay our property tax, failed to pay our insurance, failed to pay the tax penalties we were assessed, and failed to properly balance our escrow account. They did finally send a check a couple months late for overage in the account but when deposited it was returned as not authorized so now I have a bank charge to pay as well. The issue is no one at the company has any competence to discuss and resolve the situation. We have made numerous calls, sent numerous emails all without a resolution. NewRez will not take ownership of their poor performance. It is ridiculous that I must search out legal council to address my issues. I previously submitted a report which accomplish nothing. There should be oversight from the CFPB, not just letters nobody reads and no action is taken. The real issue is there are thousands of people with the same issues I am having. ShellPoint has the most complaints of anyone. Why are mortgage servicers not held to the same standard expected of the consumer. This quite frankly is unacceptable as requires much more colorful language than is present in this complaint. This company should be immediately taken over by the government and closed.

Complaint:
Hi and how are you doing? Im not sure who to take this to anymore, but Ive disputed this account several times with both the original creditor and the credit reporting agencies accordingly and Ive attached everything to support my dispute. However, I continue to received a pre-template letter sent to me that its been verified and it REMAINS. How is it possible that this was verified if you continue to report incomplete, inconsistent, inaccurate, and unverifiable information on this account and a thorough and in-dept investigation. Ive disputed and I havent received anything as such, but it continues to be reported in violation of the consumer laws.

Issue: Fraud or scam

Complaint:
XX/XX/2019 online form transmissionTo whom it may concern at the Consumer Financial Protection BureauOn XX/XX/2019, I sent $XXXX via PayPal to XXXX XXXX but PayPal took my money and still has not given it to XXXX and even after my asking for it back, PayPal would not give it back, even after multiple phone calls made by me to them. They infer that they can hand on to the money as long as they like it since they deem it to be a 'suspicious' transfer. That is theft in my mind, holding on to my money because they consider it to be suspicious. If it's so suspicious, they should just send my money back. I suspect they are punishing me for selecting the option of 'sending money to friends and family' instead of selecting the option of it being a business payment. That is not a crime. It's a choice since XXXX is also a friend of mine who pays his own taxes and is responsible for this income and any taxes owed from it, if any. But this is a lame excuse for withholding money.They insisted that I give them the date of birth of someone named XXXX XXXX since the name 'XXXX XXXX' was typed in the notes area of my transfer. XXXX XXXX was not involved with this transfer and he is a third party so there is no legal reason why PayPal has to ask for his date of birth. XXXX is merely a book author I promote and I use subcontractors to help promote him. XXXX XXXX   is one such subcontractor.Please have PayPal either give the money to XXXX or refund it back to me. Let them know that they have no legal right to require an unrelated 3rd party to provide their date of birth. This makes me look bad in the eyes of my book author and my contractor. PayPal has harmed my relationships and repubtation. Thank you for helping remedy this injustice.XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  , NC XXXX

Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I received an alert from XXXX XXXX alerting me that I voluntarily closed my XXXX XXXX account. I just simply paid off my loan. Considering that there is an existing investigation with XXXX, I should not have a closed account. If anything, the account should say PAID IN FULL. My Experian Credit score decreased by 58 points due to this error. I have been paying this loan for a little over 6 years and am very aware that if I voluntarily have XXXX XXXX to close the account, I lose Credit length and perks due to paying a loan in full. This needs to be put back on my report. Removal of this from my report is a derogatory mark. It makes no sense considering that I still have an open dispute on an account that has an open dispute. I called yesterday and the rep said that maybe the credit bureau removed it, because XXXX has not yet reported. Reporting happens at the beginning of the month, according to the representative. I do have my title but I never voluntarily agreed to having a closed account and derogatory mark on my report.

Complaint:
Today I was speaking with a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX representative on chat and they asked for my SSN I declined. As I was asking for pricing and possibly cancellation of service, I received an email from my credit monitoring service. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX.-XXXX  made an inquiry on my credit. This was not authorized. I wasn't even asked. I confronted the representative that I was corresponding with and they said they did not run a check. But I got the notice literally seconds after I declined his inquiry. I also have the chat screenshots, email of the notification and the hard inquiry on my credit. This is beyond UNACCEPTABLE. I need assistance as XXXX XXXX XXXX has only directed me to a fraud page instead of removing the inquiry. It needs to be rectified. I take care of my credit and this will negatively affect me. 

Please help!
