Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
I was an  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  customer for several years before, on their suggestion, I switched to their  XXXX   service ( after th ey had bought  XXXX   ). I kn ew I was moving in around a year, so I vehemently asked and asked about early termination fees, and was told I was n't subject to them because I was already a customer. I was required to pay some of the installation fees over the phone then. When technicians visited my home to perform the install, I once again asked about early termination fees and was not told of any. After they installed the equipment, and after they charged me the final installation fee, they then asked me to sign their agreement on their electronic device. I once again asked about early termination fees, and they said none.     Fast forward a year, I request to close my account because I 'm moving. My bill comes with a {$340.00} early termination fee. I disputed this with  XXXX  and  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX , wrote a letter to their Office of the President, and was finally told they would n't reverse the early termination charge. They even told me they 'd just draft the money from my bank account I had been using for autopay, even if I removed it from my account and after I, in writing, told them they were not authorized to draft from my account. They still tried.     I heard nothing for several months until  XXXX    XXXX   when they handed the account off to Diversified Consultants (  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX ,  XXXX , FL,  XXXX , (  XXXX  )  XXXX  ) who I never received any statement or letter of debt from, nor any phone calls. I would not have even known this was a " collection account '' if not for checking my bureau.     I do not owe this debt, I have reported it to the FTC for deceptive business practices and my  state AG. I will  be filing a lawsuit against both  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  and  Diversified Consultants.      *Attached is a certified letter sent to  XXXX   XXXX   Office of the President  .

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX AKA XXXX is not reporting correctly to Experian that my account was delinquent as of XXXX, 2010. This is extremely important due to the fact that adverse credit accounts are suppose to drop off of the credit bureau after seven years per the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The account was later brought current and paid off. It is still showing on my current Experian credit report when the credit delinquency if great than seven years. XXXX XXXX were reporting the XXXX 2010 delinquency 's correctly to XXXX and XXXX. The account has dropped off of these credit bureaus due to the 1st reported delinquency 's are greater than sever years old. I have contacted and requested twice now to XXXX that they correct the credit reporting with Experian. They have refused to do so. Experian defers to the lender so they will not remove it either. They are in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. <P/>I have attached a copy of my mortgage Statement dated XXXX, 2010 that shows my payment due date is XXXX XXXX, 2010 which also shows 2 past due payments ( XXXX & XXXX 2010 ). See the bottom of page 2 in the attachment for past due details. I have also included a copy of my XXXX report that shows XXXX XXXX reported me as past due from XXXX thru XXXX 2010.  XXXX and XXXX has subsequently removed this from my file since it is seven years old as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act

Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Personal line of credit
Issue: Problem when making payments

Complaint:
Hello, On  XXXX   XXXX ,  2017, I m ade a payment over the phone via debit card with Avant in the amount of {$3800.00}. On  XXXX   XXXX ,    2017, I a ttempted another debit card payment, this time was to payoff the loan, the total at this time was around {$1800.00}. Avant rejected my payment and said they are not allowed to take a debit/credit card payment unless the account is seriously delinquent. On their website, I am unable to change my banking information on their website, nor am I able to make a payment. The company is REFUSING to accept a payment, and only did so once I was able to payoff the loan in effort to stretch this out and collect more interest which accrues daily. I 've asked them four more times to take my payment and they still refuse. I now requested they remove the interest that has accrued since  XX/XX/XXXX  and they advised they will review which takes up to 14 days.  <P/> The same enforcement action the CFPB took against the student loan companies and payday loan companies is the same action I am requesting her e. Avant i s refusing to accept a method of payment, which they 've previously accepted, to accrue more interest on the payoff which is now more than 200 dollars and I will not be bullied into doing it! By refusing to take my payment, and not having alternate means by which to accept payment, they are causing financial harm to me, the consumer.

Complaint:
I am an XXXX  who files legal documents through an electronic portal called the XXXX  XXXX XXXX. If a fee is associated with a filing, then I pay that fee through the portal by a withdrawal from my professional checking account at Chase Bank. Recently, the portal informed me that it would be using a new payment processor and that I should confirm with Chase Bank that no " debit blocks '' were associated with my professional checking account. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I entered the Chase Bank situated at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Florida, to discuss the foregoing. However, the employees at that bank refused to discuss the matter with me and informed me that I must make an appointment for a later date to discuss the matter. 

Since I first opened an account at Chase Bank two years ago, the bank has become much less accommodating to depositors. An employee of Chase recently informed me that Chase has decided to focus on commercial transactions which I interpreted as commercial transactions of " large value ''.

Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: CT
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
XX/XX/2021 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, CT XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Mr. Cooper Loan # XXXX To Whom It May concern : Mr. Cooper has indicated in their most recentXX/XX/XXXX correspondence that the proposed post modification of unpaid principal balance of this loan is {>= $1,000,000} with a property value of {$360000.00}. In that same correspondence you refute any and all allegations of fraud, duel tracking and deceptive practices, yet it certainly appears deceitful, ( and that is putting it lightly ) to state the property value as {$360000.00} when the actual value of the home is {$310000.00}. A {$59000.00} difference is no little oversight. 

Please know that the value of this loan did not become so inflated without an improper origin. 
Deceptive practices such as disregarding homeowners ability to repay, high point adjustable rates and excessive fees, created an unsurmountable amount of debt for the borrowers ; and potentially a huge write off for the Mr. Cooper, if foreclosed. 

Mr. Cooper has consistently conditionally approved a short sale or Deed In lieu, because that benefits the lender, but what about the borrower who was deceptively lulled into a loan that was a against their best interest. A principal reduction modification is necessary in certain circumstances and/or with certain loans like this. With that said I am also making a request for mortgage information. 

And lastly, the borrower wants to keep their home. Principal reduction is the only resolution that can achieve that goal. Therefore, the borrower requests the modification denial be reconsidered with principal reduction. 


Please help us to appeal to with Mr. Cooper to reconsider the court order modification. 

Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX
