The issue is with XXXX XXXX arbitrarily adding a comment to the credit bureau identifying my home as " Affected by Natural Disaster ''. When I called the Bank the employee notified me that this is simply a comment that they add when the area around a home has been affected by a Natural Disaster. This is an unfair practice and affects the value of a persons home. This is something XXXX is doing to others and I feel that they are going to affect the home values of many people by doing so.

Complaint:
This is so annoying & frustrating. Ive sent EXPERIAN multiple letters that Im the one whos disputing the item that are UNKNOWN to me. In Experians responses that make the claim that have not initiated any disputes on my behalf due to the fraudulent or high risk nature, and the documents I provided have either been confirmed as fraudulent or deemed as high risk due to the potential for fraud. This is a complete joke. How in the world did they verify these claims? First of all, I know that under FCRA Section 619 Obtaining information under false pretenses that any person who knowingly and willfully obtains information on a consumer from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses shall be fined under title 18 United States Code, imprisoned for not more than 2 years, or both. Most importantly, I never sent my documentation to anyone else as it deemed as high risk due to the potential for fraud. Also, according to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 3 ) Determination That Dispute Is Frivolous or Irrelevant ( A ) a consumer reporting agency may terminate a reinvestigation of information disputed by a consumer under that paragraph if the agency reasonably determines that the dispute by the consumer is frivolous or irrelevant, including by reason of a failure by a consumer to provide sufficient information to investigate the disputed information. 

( B ) Notice of determination. Upon making any determination in accordance with subparagraph ( A ) that a dispute is frivolous or irrelevant, a consumer reporting agency shall notify the consumer of such determination not later than XXXX business days after making such determination, by mail or, if authorized by the consumer for that purpose, by any other means available to the agency. 

Again, under FCRA 617 Civil liability for negligent noncompliance [ 15 U.S.C. 1681o ] Any person who is negligent in failing to comply with any requirement imposed under this title with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure; and ( 2 ) in the case of any successful action to enforce any liability under this section, the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court. 

I need your help! As a consumer, I need to correct my credit file for my credit worthiness, credit standing, or credit capacity to obtain my rights and XXXX XXXX XXXX that has been XXXX. List of item that is UNKNOWN to me : XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/2011 Balance : {$4200.00}

State: NJ
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
I previously sent in a loss mitigation application with no response from Caliber. Now I have been served with a Sheriff 's notice and need a loan modification. The loan modification submission was not responded to. Caliber has now taken a position that they do not have to review me for a loan modification because of the proximity to the sheriff sale. I disagree with this premise because it is not in good faith. I do not have a large arrearage with Caliber and I have money to make a lump sum payment. I have been making payments to Caliber up until the middle of last year. I was never sent a loss mitigation package nor did I ever receive a Notice of Intent to foreclose.
