Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: NJ
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
We had a Discover Card. When my husband 's business went under, it was one of the monthly debts we stopped paying. That debt was purchased by XXXX & XXXX from NJ. The firm got a judgment against us in the amount of $ XXXX. We did owe the money and entered into a monthly payment plan with them. They do not send monthly statements or receipt of payments. We would like to know our balance and get a receipt when a payment is made -- if not monthly -- at least quarterly. 

We had been making payments faithfully for 2 years and we were late one month -- just outright forgot. Not hard to do since we do not get any statements from them. It's due the XXXX of the month. I went to pay it online on the XXXX of the next month only to find out they had cancelled the agreement. Also, you can not go onto their website and make a partial payment ( if you wanted to split it up over the month ). 

We were able to get the agreement reinstated but they asked for an even bigger monthly payment. We did not agree to it. My complaint is about their business practices -- no statements, no receipts, no updated balances but they have no problem rescinding an agreement immediately when a payment is not made. They should be obligated to send out statements and keep consumers informed. 

If I knew what I know now, I would definitely have negotiated the debt down. This law firm are bottom feeders and should be held to better standards. They prey on too many vulnerable people and should be sanctioned.

State: VA
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card

Complaint:
On my birthday XX/XX/2022 I last used my credit card in question. I didnt realize I had lost the card until about a week later, when I realized a charge for XXXX was made on the card. I quickly called my credit card company ( Truist ) and made them aware of the fraudulent activity. As I was on the phone with them I looked through my belongings and realized my card was no where to be found. Truist opened a claim and denied it. I called them back and they stated that I am not able to appeal the claim and that the reasonings as to why my claim was denied would be sent to me via mail. I looked through my options and how to move forward with this and came across CFPB, hoping that they would be able to assist in this horrible incident. I am paying for a charge I did not make on my lost card.

Company: RUSHMORE LOAN MANAGEMENT SERVICES LLC
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint:
I originally refinanced my home back in XXXX of XXXX, with an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX fixed/variable rate loan. This loan was to be eligible for an adjustable interest rate re-lock every five years, contingent on borrower ( me ) maintaining good credit and repayment record. When my loan was transferred to XXXX XXXX ( due to XXXX XXXX being purchased ), XXXX XXXX respected these terms and offered me a rate renewal lock at the end of my first 5-year period. 

Fast-forward another four years, and now XXXX XXXX has left the mortgage loan business and handed my loan over to Rushmore Loan Management Services. I am almost at the end of my second 5-year term of the loan, and I spoke with Rushmore on Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX, to verify that I would in fact be offered a rate renewal at loan-term maturity. I was told " We don't do that '' and instead was directed to download their loan modification application from their website, a multi-page document requiring very detailed information regarding every aspect of my finances -- clearly a new loan application that would require going through an extensive underwriting process. 

Frankly, I don't care to apply for a new loan at this time, or go through a refinance loan, either. I am current on all of my payments, and have maintained a spotless repayment record throughout the entire term of my loan to date. My credit status has also maintained a very high rating. I have a perfectly good existing loan, and I see no reason why my loan 's original terms and benefits should not be honored and upheld. I am very disappointed that a mortgage service provider should arbitrarily decide to change a customer 's existing loan when they have no right to do so. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Complaint:
My account should be included with the Wells Fargo Illegal Practices Settlement. 
I contacted Wells Fargo to see if my account was included and they told me that they could not tell me, but if it was I will be contacted. 
My account was unfairly turned down several times when requesting loan modifications in hopes of avoiding foreclosures. I was incorrectly charged fees and other costs. 
Wells Fargo wrongly brought on foreclosure actions, and overstated attorney.

Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: CT
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX, XXXX I completed a XXXX XXXX XXXX application with TD Bank ( US ) store # XXXX. I subsequently received notification that the loan amount requested was denied and an alternative amount was offered at a much higher interest rate and much less favorable terms. Upon looking into this matter it was revealed that the appraisal on my property was factually incorrect and that contributed to the issue above. Specifically the appraisal did not include an additional bedroom/bathroom in the home and was also understated in terms of livable square footage. Upon my notifying TD Bank they stated that their policy is not to do a reappraisal unless I could prove the house was 10 % larger than what they valued it at. I conveyed to the bank that this was unfair ( if not against fair lending regulations ) and I requested that this matter be escalated to senior management. After weeks and eventually months of back and forth with the bank, including providing photos, copy of building permit application information ( including square square footage calculations ), copy of town final inspection/live able approval, and other requested documentation I was informed that the bank would not correct the appraisal for an accurate valuation of my property. They reverted back to their subjective policy of putting the burden on me the consumer of demonstrating that the original valuation was understated by 10 % or more in terms of square footage which put me in an impossible circumstance since the original appraisal was within 10 % of the square footage but did not include the correct number of bedrooms/bathrooms and was still understated on the square footage - factors which are a core valuation input and which will make a material difference in the qualified loan amount. I was informed of this final decision on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I have a current XXXX XXXX XXXX with the bank that is XXXX the amount they counter offered I have a perfect payment history and a credit score that is over XXXX per the TD Bank own credit check and records on me.

Issue: Other transaction problem

Complaint:
On Sunday XX/XX/2020 I received a text message on my phone stating that I had sent a payment of {$2400.00} to a person by the name of XXXX XXXX which I do not know. I logged in to my PayPal account right after the text and sure enough, there was an unauthorized money transfer. The person who hacked my account changed my chase credit card which is my preferred method of payment to my XXXX XXXX XXXX card to transfer himself the money. I reported the fraudulent activity & unauthorized transaction to PayPal right away. A case was opened, however, PayPal kept stating that the fraud committed on my account was NOT unauthorized when in fact it was. Two never seen before credit cards XXXX XXXX & XXXX XXXX XXXX were also added to my account, still PayPal refuses to help me with this fraud. I have been a PayPal customer for 15+ years and PayPal has failed to help me with this matter. I filed a complaint with my bank plus processed a stop payment on the money transfer even though the money had already been deducted from my bank account. At this point, PayPal was no longer of help and has declined and closed my case three times and I had exhausted my appeals. Instead of PayPal performing a more deeply investigation they kept saying the transfer appeared to had come from me. I was stressing out all this time so decided to report this with your agency and hope you can step in and get to the bottom of this fraud. PayPal has now locked my PayPal account because a stop payment was issued. I have reported my bad experience to the PayPal Manger email address ; XXXX XXXX XXXX and also to the president and CEO of PayPal XXXX XXXX ; XXXX with NO luck. PayPal refuses to help customers during a serious fraud like this one.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2021, NCA added a derogatory mark on my credit report per XXXX. Upon further research, this account was transferred/sold and I am no longer responsible for the account. Debt Creditor did not verify this collection. Also, there was no written form of communication, contract, or signature for this accused debt at all. A bill without a signature does not validate the debt and anybody can send a bill and says it's mine. According to the FCRA, NCA has violated my rights as a consumer and Im requesting legal action to remove this account immediately.

Complaint:
This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint filed by a third party. I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. Despite the multiple previous written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditor documentation on file to verify that this information is 100 % true, accurate & correct. In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation ( s ), you stated in writing that you verified that these items are being reported correctly? Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, you have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). Please be advised that under Section 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to ... promptly CORRECT or DELETE all information which can not be verified. Section 616 and Section 617 provide me with a remedy which Im about to seek. You are willful non-complying with the FCRA. Since you claim youve verified the accounts listed below I wanted to confirm my thoughts and contacted the companies directly. They did not provide me with any verifiable proof. So, my question comes up again, WHO VERIFIED THESE ACCOUNTS? I believe you have not verified these accounts based on Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & I will be seeking a legal remedy. Please have these accounts corrected for once : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX
