Company: Account Control Technology, Inc.
State: NC
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Seized or attempted to seize your property

Complaint:
None of the options on the previous screens truly described my situation so I hope this gets to the right place. A week ago I tried renew my NC vehicle registration and was told that I was not allowed to register based on a hold placed by Account Control Technologies ( XXXX ) XXXX. They stated that I had a toll balance that had gone to collections over a year ago, I had never received prior invoices or notices of this balance and had no knowledge of it. I called the collection agency and had no choice but to pay the debt if I wanted to continue to be able to drive my vehicle. I made that payment on XX/XX/2019 at XXXX XXXX ( literally immediately after I became aware of this debt ). 

The payment came out of my account on XX/XX/2019, and as of XX/XX/2019 ( the date my registration expired ) they still had not reported the payment to XXXX XXXX to allow me to reregister my vehicle. A representative from XXXX XXXX called Account Control Technologies with me, Account Control Technologies confirmed that I did pay but stated that they had no control over when the system would send notification to NC XXXX and would not help me. So Account Control Technologies is holding my rights to reregister my vehicle hostage over a debt I was never aware and paid immediately upon being notified of it. This means I can not drive my vehicle which could affect my job.

Please help me to get this rectified and save others from this same fate, collection agencies should not be able to prohibit an US Citizen from being able to register a vehicle over a debt that has been paid to them. I feel that they are using the collection powers provided to them by the State of NC in an abusive manner which could harm me and my family.

Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: ME
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
CFPB complaint number XXXX-XXXX  was not properly resolved.

Original complaint : I processed a automatic payment on XX/XX/XXXX for my XX/XX/XXXX mortgage payment. The subsequent statement indicated I missed that payment. As a result, I paid my XX/XX/XXXX mortgage payment a second time on XX/XX/XXXX. I then confirmed that my bank made the XX/XX/XXXX payment electronically, and provided the credit trace number to Mr. Cooper on XX/XX/XXXX. It presents an unfair burden to a consumer to have to pay twice in order to avoid late charges and reports to credit agencies. It is also not reasonable that a consumer to have to call numerous times and wait weeks in order to get the issue resolved.

Since the time of that response, I received a call from XXXX XXXX at NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE ( dba Mr Cooper ) on XX/XX/XXXX indicating that the payment/refund has not been initiated.
