Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
In the month of XX/XX/2019, I discovered a inaccurate collection being reported to all three of my credit reports. On XX/XX/2019 XXXX  had fixed and corrected the problem with their investigation. TransUnion and XXXX  had failed to fix or correct the problem. Ive sent both credit companies documents and requested numerous of investigations since then. TransUnion has been very hard to get a hold of to submit documentation and requests for investigations. Most of the time, Ive had to use their sister organizations with XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX just to request an investigation. Both their partners dont accept documentation. XXXX  is available to submit investigations and documentation but they fail to look into the relevant information. They are both reporting XXXX/XXXX XXXX in the amount of XXXX dollars. XXXX had sent a letter stating that no collection exists in my name. Ive sent this information to both credit agencies.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
In XXXX I tried to remove the freeze/lock on my Equifax account. I was told the information that is accurate for me was not what they had. I was told to mail a social security card and drivers license with my address to Equifax at the XXXX XXXX XXXX. I got no response and after several attempts contacted your Bureau for help Complaint Number XXXX. Through you they said to mail more personal information to the same XXXX XXXX XXXX. I did and they sent the attached reply to now send even more personal information to XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

I will try this again but I want to know What has happened to the information that was sent? 

Why the change in PO box numbers from their response to you? 

Since it looks like Equifax prefers their fraudulent information to my valid information, what should my next step be to get the lock off my account?

State: LA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2018 I notified Equifax of a dispute involving two bankruptcies reporting on my credit report. I requested an investigation and verification of the information in the report. On XX/XX/2018 Equifax submitted the results of their investigation and stated that the matter had been investigated and came back verified. They went on to state that the verification had been performed by way of state, local and federal information obtained through a third party, XXXX XXXX. However, prior to initiating the dispute, I placed a security freeze on all information contained in my XXXX XXXX files. That security freeze became effective on XX/XX/2018. At the time of the investigation and verification, the security freeze was in place and prevented the verification of the public record which Equifax claims to have verified. 
After receiving the verification from Equifax, I contacted XXXX XXXX to inquire whether any request had been made for information in the XXXX XXXX files and if so, who were the recipients of the information. I was informed by XXXX XXXX that as long as the security freeze remained in effect, no information from my files could be dessiminated. Equifax 's assertion that the public records were verified is dishonest.

Company: I.C. System, Inc.
State: AL
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Threatened to contact someone or share information improperly
Sub-issue: Talked to a third-party about your debt

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2021 I filed a complaint about the actions of I C system and the fact that they communicated with a relative of mine in regards a debt that they are trying to collect. I also complained that as data furnishers they failed to provide the CRAs with 100 per cent accurate information which was listed on my credit file. These are violations of my rights as a consumer and are very injurious to my financial health. I C System sent me a letter ( see attached ) stating that as a result of my dispute they will cease all communications as well as any collection activity. They did not cease collections. In fact the very letter in which they stated they would cease collections had a request for payment and they are also still reporting this debt to the CRAs. Its my understanding that credit reporting is an attempt to collect a debt or at lease to coerce consumers to pay debt. I C Systems has not kept their word as to their debt collection and continues to violate my rights.

Company: CrossCountry Mortgage LLC
State: NC
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Closing on a mortgage

Complaint:
PROBLEM : Two Failures to disclose terms and costs for home mortgage of $ XXXX closed on XX/XX/XXXX : 1. From the outset we requested and reiterated our need to pay down the mortgage to achieve lower monthly payments, without penalty. However, CCM failed to disclose their loan terms would deny partial payments which we had to discover on the Closing Disclosure Doc. Morgage company threatened we could not close on time unless I signed that document as is, advising that we could instead probably recast the loan in payments of $ 10K+ for a fee of maybe up to {$600.00} depending on the terms of who they sold our loan to and whomever might repurchase it later. 
2. We requested the loan be held by my Trust rather than me individually. The Company had agreed but instead required me to hold the loan individually. This was not disclosed and only discovered at the closing in the final loan docs. Again, I was forced to accept this adverse, undisclosed change in order to move in on time even though they had confirmed that my trust could hold the mortgage after my attorney attested that my trust provided full power to buy and sell real property as required by their underwriters. 
I advised the Company of these failures and have had no response. Documentation of the above available upon request.

Complaint:
My account was transferred from XXXX to Bayview effective XX/XX/XXXX.At the time I had an excrow excess of {$1900.00}, On XX/XX/XXXX I called Bayview and spoke to XXXX XXXX and his superior regarding the escrow. I was a month behehind in the amount i of {$930.00}. It was agreed that this would be deducted from the escrow excess which would leave a balance of {$1000.00} owed to me, I was instructed to call customer service, which I did a week later. I spoke to XXXX ( he refused to give his last name ). In speaking to him, he gave me incorrect information, regarding my account. I was told the the trasfer had been made, however I have yet to receive the escrow balance. I have spoken to several people at Bayview and in each instance I have had to literally argue to correct misinformation regrding my account.I am frustrated and believe delaying tatics are being used to delay or deney the return of the escrow ( I was told that my escrow balance would take 30-60 days to be returned. Is the the norm?

Company: LoanCare, LLC
State: NC
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Closing on a mortgage

Complaint:
This is my SECOND complaint filed against LoanCare regarding illegal and unethical escrow account practices. The first time around, LoanCare was illegally maintaining an overage of {$8000.00} in my escrow account as of XX/XX/XXXX after my XXXX taxes were paid. They did issue a refund ( finally after multiple complaints and a CFPB complaint filed. However, they refused to lower the monthly escrow amount. My property taxes are no where near the estimate of {$7500.00} their reps insist they are. XXXX taxes were based upon land only, but I have since received a tax estimate that I sent to LoanCare and they completely ignored. I requested, in writing, another escrow analysis more than a month ago, and did not receive a single response. They were scheduled to do an escrow analysis in XXXX as well and did not complete either. I have left messages and have gotten no response. Nothing! This company is running a completely unethical business and their practices regarding escrow accounts are illegal. After the crisis that arose in XXXX, and the subsequent regulation and legislation that went into effect, I am shocked that LoanCare would even dare to attempt to commit escrow account violations. Consumers have rights, and they simply can not be allowed to ignore their clients and illegally benefit off escrow slush funds. Laws are in place to prevent this. Why and how LoanCare continues to get away with illegal escrow account practices is beyond me.

I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid.

Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Public record information inaccurate

Complaint:
My vehicle was damaged when I placed it on third party app called XXXX. XXXX XXXX  renter nearly totaled the vehicle and abandoned it 77 miles away from my home. XXXX was completely useless for the first 2 months and did not assist me or even start a claim with their insurance until my car was repossessed, due to impound fees. XXXX tried to fraudulently claim that my vehicle was stolen while rented by their driver, but the driver was actually involved in 2 accidents that day, not just the one resulting in $ XXXX in damages and the abandonment of my property. My good credit was ruined because Wells Fargo reported it as a repossession, eventhough there were no late payments on the account. I had even contacted Wells Fargo a month prior to the repossession and was told that as long as I continued to make my payments on time, that they would not get involved. This was a complete lie because now my credit has been ruined with this negative account reporting to public records. I feel very taken advantage of in this situation. XXXX intentionally waited to open claim with their insurance because they always intended to claim the car as theft. Wells Fargo was made aware of the situation and lied by stating that they weren't going to repossess it because they had no right to so long as the payments were made.

I filed a recent complaint with CFPB regarding complaint number XXXX in early XXXX. According to that complaint, they were going to research can get back with me to provide proof that the debt belonged to me. They have not been able to do that. According to laws governing debt collection, they are supposed to provide me with proof of the debt that has my signature on it. They are stalling and have not been able to prove this. It has been 30 days since I originally requested debt validation and have still not received. Both records that they placed under the credit reporting agencies will need to be removed or I will be forced to escalate this further and even get my attorney involved. This needs to be deleted ASAP.
