Consumer complaint received 2016-03-27
Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: PA
Product: Consumer Loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Taking out the loan or lease

Complaint:
After several attempts to resolve a credit denial based on erroneous information I remain frustrated with the FCPB, XXXX, Citizens Bank, and XXXX XXXX stores so I am attempting yet again to correct this situation. 
1. XXXX XXXX stores employees are not trained in sales of financial products such as the Citizens Loans associated with the XXXX XXXX Upgrade Program. After discussing the situation with the manager of the XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX in XXXX PA he recognized the need for further training for XXXX employees as they were not providing customers with factual information regarding the financing associated with the upgrade program. He also admitted that the way the information was provided for credit checks did not give customers a way to ensure the employee was providing the correct information. All information with the exception of the social security number was input onto a handheld device by the employee so errors could easily occur. Moreover the customer did input the social security number but is unable to verify correct input as the numbers were all starred out to protect the customer. So XXXX is not describing the financial product correctly and input is easily erroneous. 
Denial by Citizens Bank was based on information from XXXX that is nowhere to be found on my XXXX credit report as none of the reasons ( garnishment, attachment, foreclosure, repossession, judgement or collection ) for denial provided have ever happened to me and do not appear on the credit report provided to me. 
Thus either XXXX is not providing me with my correct and valid credit report or Citizens Bank has given them incorrect information to run credit check or just refusing to admit to errors. 
Moreover XXXX does not provide a way to dispute this credit check because I did authorize it. But XXXX will not help with correcting the information provided to Citizens Bank. 
To sum up I am filing complaints against : 1. XXXX XXXX XXXX for failure to train employees is sales of financial products such as personal loans and allowing customers to verify the information provided as correct. 
2. Citizens Bank for refusing to investigate their errors in processing my application either with XXXX XXXX, Citizens One Employees or XXXX. 
3. XXXX refusal to investigate how Citizens One Bank was provided this erroneous information or provide me with the credit history that has the incorrect information for dispute. 
As of XXXX XXXX my XXXX Credit Score is excellent at XXXX with no public records ( garnishments, foreclosures, attachments, repossessions or attachments ) on the report. 

I have worked very diligently to keep my credit rating as excellent and I do not wish to have this error remain on my history. 
Thank You for your help with this matter. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX

Issue: Disclosure verification of debt
Sub-issue: Not given enough info to verify debt

Complaint:
I contacted Enhanced Recovery Company XXXX/XXXX/15 regarding a XXXX debt in which I was unaware of. After speaking with a reprensentative who refused to answer my questions I was transferred to a Supervisor named XXXX. After attempting to speak with him he continuously over talked me and refused accept my request of a validation yet tried forcing what he thought he knew on me and forcing me to pay the debt. I understand how cell phone plans work I 'm not stupid and XXXX had no right to deny me a validation of a debt I was unaware of!!! He even had the audacity to ask if I wanted to dispute it or if I wanted a validation like I had to choose between a validation or dispute. XXXX went on to say I had to send the dispute in writing or nothing in his office will be done. Why was my right to dispute this debt and request a validation denied by this company? Why was I forced to choose between a validation or dispute? The notices says dispute the validity of the debt within 30 days or it 's assumed mine. The letter does not state it has to be sent in writing so why was XXXX trying to force me to send it in writing when I clearly disputed it verbally various times? Section 809 of the FDCPA does only require that the collection agency validate in writing when the request for validation is done in writing. But as per the notice I received there is no specific request nor requirement of the dispute or the request for validation to be placed in writing so therefore I feel as though this collection agency is poking fun at the FDCPA. Thus being unfair and violating my rights as a consumer as well the collection agencies that put forth the effort to maintain compliance. Being that a dispute and request of validation are both a form of a dispute they still need to be treated differently as well as investigated properly which this company refused to do. I also have everything recorded.

Company: SUNTRUST BANKS, INC.
State: CA
Product: Consumer Loan
Sub-product: Vehicle loan
Issue: Shopping for a loan or lease

Complaint:
In late XXXX 2015, I cosigned an auto loan for a grandson living in XXXX XXXX, North Dakota. The paper work was XXXX and signed XXXX XXXX, 2015. However, starting the XXXX week of XXXX 2015 I received various notices from different banks stating that the auto loan had been denied do to my bad credit : SunTrust, dated XXXX XXXX, 2015 ; XXXX XXXX, dated XXXX XXXX, 2015 ; XXXX, dated XXXX XXXX, 2015, and XXXX, dated XXXX, 2015. All these banks turned my credit down. See attached copies. 
During the XXXX week of XXXX 2015, SunTrust sends me a notice, dated XXXX XXXX, 2015, stating that the auto installment payment is overdue!!! I was aghast at this notice because SunTrust had turned my credit down on XXXX XXXX, 2015, and now they were asking for their auto payment installment. Since the XXXX XXXX, 2015 letter by SunTrust turning down my credit, I had not received anything to the contrary from SunTrust, or any other bank that had turned down my credit for the auto loan. 
Upon receipt of this XXXX XXXX, 2015 notice by SunTrust asking for their auto payment installment, I phoned the bank stating that I had no auto loan with them because they had turned down my credit in a notice dated XXXX XXXX, 2015. How could this be? I asked them. They stated that they could not do anything about it, and for me to get ahold of the auto dealer in North Dakota. I called the auto dealer in XXXX XXXX. The auto dealer stated that the banks had turned down my grandson 's credit but not mine, and that my credit was good, and therefore they had released the auto to my grandson on XXXX XXXX, 2015. I said how could this be since SunTrust notified me my credit was bad, and they could not proceed with the financing? Again, they repeated that my credit was good and therefore they had released the auto to my grandson. I could not understand their logic. 
Once those banks turned down in mass my credit application, which I had signed in good faith, I completely gave up. I started to inquire the credit reporting agencies why my credit was bad. My issue is why would SunTrust Bank turned down my credit, and then turn around, a month later and ask for a late auto payment installment? SunTrust Bank, nor any other bank that turned down my credit, never ever notified me that my credit had been approved after all. It does not make sense. I state that I have no credit with SunTrust Bank because they denied my credit on XXXX, 2015.

Complaint:
I have contacted Equifax several times online, by telephone, and by letter, in the last two weeks of XX/XX/XXXX to lift the freeze on my credit report so that I may refinance my mortgage. The online response was to tell me to call Equifax. Upon calling Equifax, I was told I had to write the company a letter, including my social security number and my identification card. I have done so without success. 
Both XXXX and XXXX have temporarily lifted the freeze on my credit report, so I can not understand why Equifax has not responded to my requests. 
Would you please contact them on my behalf so I may continue to have potential creditors access my report? 
Thank you

Equifax is currently reporting a tax lien as released but it has been withdrawn and no longer exists as public record and needs to be deleted from the report entirely.

Complaint:
My daughter purchased a used vehicle and was making payments on it. The loan was through Chase Auto Finance XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX TX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX. This account is being shown on my credit report as a charge off. I called Chase Auto Finance and explained that is showing a paid charged off on my credit report. I explained that this was my adult daughters car and not my responsibility. I asked them to send me a copy of the car contract from the dealership to show that I signed for the car. That request was done in XXXX of 2020, I called Chase again because I never received a copy of the car contract and its now XX/XX/2020. They stated that they requested the wrong document and were requesting it again. I explained to Chase that this was not my financial responsibility and secondly the car was not charged off, my daughter paid the car in full. In fact, Chase sent her the pink slip of the car, why would they do that if monies were still owed? Chase agreed that the balance was XXXX but its still a charge off. I let Chase know that I am purchasing a home and this error they are reporting is affecting my purchase, but they would not budge. To me, a charge off is when a creditor did not receive payment in full, in this case the balance is XXXX  and they still are showing a charge off. So when other lending institutions look to my credit they think that I did not pay this account in full, when in-fact it was not even my responsibility. I have been dealing with this since XXXX for 5 months now. 
I need CFPB to help me clear this item as the credit reporting agencies are saying the Chase Auto Finance keeps telling them that they are reporting this correctly. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
