Complaint:
I received a letter from the creditor by the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. 
Claiming I owe an amount of {$360.00}. 
I was completely unfamiliar with said debt so I immediately called the original creditor & current creditor they have listed. 
Neither creditor that they have listed was familiar with the debt or myself as a person. They advised me this could be fraud. 
I also decided to research this XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and found multiple sources saying this is fraud as well. 

I then contacted this creditor directly and they informed me this was from XXXX, asked me to verify an email address that I had not used in 10 years. The representative stated he would let the original creditor know but Im not convinced.

State: OK
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
We purchased a new home before the sale of our current home was final. The loan for the new home included PMI. Our former home has sold, we have paid off {$140000.00} of the {$180000.00} loan and want to cancel the PMI. The bank is telling me we have to pay a fee of {$120.00} to cancel this insurance. This was not disclosed to us at the time, even though the loan officer was aware that we would be paying off the majority of the loan within a few months. Since the bank required us to have this insurance, can they require and charge us a fee to cancel it even though we meet the guidelines required to cancel?

Company: TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC
State: CA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
I started receiving harassing calls from this number about 6 months ago. When I finally decided to try and talk to the person on the phone they told me I had a debt in collection is excess of {$500.00}. I have medical insurance and have not had any major medical costs so that number seemed unlikely even if I had missed a bill. After arguing with the person on the phone for about 20 minutes, they said there had been a mistake on my account and they were billing me twice, so my debt was actually only half of the original amount so if Id like to pay now that would be great. My radar went way up- scam? I asked for more information on the origin of the debt and the information they gave me was useless- I couldnt get enough information to call the doctors office and confirm that I had indeed missed the payment. The next time the callled I asked for a paper document itemizing the debt. They sent me a letter with no real information on it- original debt? Interest charged? Creditor name? On the letter they gave me a website I could go to and pay my debt. When I try to log in, given the log in information that gave me, it says that my account could not be located. So now, Im sure I am accruing more interest because I will not give my cc over the phone and I can not log in to the portal provided. I still can to figure out the doctors office that it is coming from either.

Complaint:
This is more info in reference to these complaints : XXXX XXXX I called XXXX XXXX  XXXX  ( Owned by XXXX XXXX ) and they confirmed that I paid off my bill via autopay on XX/XX/XXXX and I never had a late bill. The person checked the greater XXXX XXXX network and showed no other accounts. He said this account was fraud. 

This make sense as to why I never got a bill before it was in collections and also why when I spoke to TransWorld Systems when I first became oaware of the delinquent payment ( XX/XX/XXXX ), they told me they tried to contact me at a phone number which never belonged to me. 

I should have never paid Transworld and they owe me a refund along with the prompt removal of this delinquency from my credit report.

Complaint:
I opened an account with Binance US on XX/XX/2021 in order to invest in crypto currencies ( virtual currencies ).

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
I, XXXX XXXX believes in the credit reporting system as the most important element to the success of the commercial banking system. I am also a proponent of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) as a tool to streamline issues on credit reports that may be dragging down my overall scores. Accordingly, I address each particular issue directly with the creditor in question, before submitting any complaint to the credit bureaus if necessary. Therefore, I desire the following reinvestigation as follows : 1 ) On accounts where late payments are posted, I respectfully request a review of the past payment history and to ascertain if certain payments could actually have been posted late because of an overlap on the 30-days grace period. I realize that this may happen on occasion, and I request only a summary review internally, and do not require any documentation.

2 ) On any account that falls within the 84-month negative reporting timeline, I respectfully request either the deletion of the account if said account was closed, or the elimination of the prior payment if the account it is still active, this is well within the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) guidelines pertaining to obsolete information.

3 ) Any collections must be proved if either a direct collection and/or debt purchase. In either event I request that a true original copy of right to pursue collection be established with each respective credit reporting agency, and if a debt purchase the guidelines proving transfer of ownership must be submitted to all credit bureaus as well as me personally to validate ownership and the right to collect. I am well within my rights requesting proper documentation as administered through the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), in addition to the even stricter guidelines enforced by the office of attorney general in my state of domicile.

I respectfully request each investigation to be reported to XXXX, XXXX  and XXXX XXXX within a reasonable time period, hopefully 30-days. I realize that the current Covid-19 crisis could cause delays, so the best efforts of each financial institution and collection agency will be appreciated under the current circumstances. 
XXXX XXXX
