Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
Hello, I hope this message finds you well. A couple of months I reviewed my credit profile and seen inaccurate information regarding my student loan ( DPT EDXXXX ) . The status is reporting late. I find that strange since I don't recall being late at all. Prior to submitting this complaint, I have sent over 3 letters to the bureaus to have them send the proper validation of this alleged late payment. I have even requested bank statements to be provided to prove that the payments were indeed late. However, all bureaus have avoided me. This makes me angry my consumer rights are being violated! I have the right to dispute any misleading information. I saw a ton of inaccuracies as well ( different open/close dates ). Doesn't this go against the FCRA Laws?

Company: Residential Credit Solutions, Inc.
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional fixed mortgage
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
I am a California homeowner that was working with Residential Credit Solutions , Inc. the servicer of my mortgage loan for a loan modification. During the loan modification process they were also proceeding with the foreclosure process which is a violation of the California Homeowner 's Bill of Rights " Dual Tracking '' prohibition. Although I supplied Residential Credit Solutions , Inc. with all the necessary documentation they requested, they sent me a letter stating they did not receive the documentation ; I have proof that it was faxed to them at the fax number they supplied. They contacted me after that letter and asked me for additional information giving me a very narrow timeframe to provide it ( 2 days ). I provided the information they asked for the week prior to the foreclosure sale but moved forward with the sale anyway and I lost my home. They also sold my home for less than what was owed to them but at no time did they offer me the opportunity to pay them less to save my home and they did not properly handle my loan modification application. There are numerous complaints against Residential Credit Solutions , Inc. and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX and there is another case pending in California courts, see XXXX XXXX XXXX v. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX et al. in the United States District Court, XXXX District of California, with nearly the identical circumstances where the homeowner sent in all the required paperwork for the loan modification but Residential Credit Solutions , Inc. claimed to have not received everything they needed and proceeded to foreclose. It appears that this is a pattern of practice by this company and their foreclosure trustee XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. to unlawfully foreclose on people 's homes.

Issue: Problems caused by my funds being low

Complaint:
On XXXX/XXXX/15 I received an email that my account was overdrawn. When I opened up my account, I had XXXX {$36.00} overdraft fees. I immediately started reviewing the account and could not find where it was overdrawn. I contacted PNC Bank to inquire about the fees. In the chat with the representative XXXX, it was stated that the check I deposited was n't cleared until XX/XX/XXXX. On the online tool that they provide it clearly states that my check was cleared on XX/XX/XXXX and all of the transactions were posted after the check was cleared. The representative said that the check was not cleared until XX/XX/XXXX. PNC bank provides this tool for consumers to to keep track of their spending, but are now telling me that it is not accurate. I have attached a copy of my transcript, a screenshot of the transactions which do not show my account in the negative, and a previous overdraft which does show my account in the negative. If the tool is inaccurate, then it should not be made available to the consumers.

Complaint:
My bank, Compass Bank, chose to process all debits on a particular day before processing the credits. This, of course, led to overdraft charges. I went to look at their policy, and found the paragraph below, which basically says that they can process them however they want on any given day, in their total and absolute discretion. No doubt, they use this policy to consistently rack up overdraft fees. This policy is unconscionable and should not be permitted. 

This is the policy I found : Processing and Posting Order. You authorize and agree that we may, in our sole discretion, determine the order that we process and post credits, debits and holds to your account. You also authorize and agree that the order and/or manner in which we post credits, debits and holds may vary by product, service, account type or type of transaction. You also authorize and agree that we are allowed to pay or authorize some credits, debits, and holds, and decline or return others, in any order we deem appropriate. The order in which in which we post credits, debits and holds to your account may not be the same as the order in which you make the withdrawals from or deposits to your account. You agree that any order in which we process and post credits, debits and holds to your account will not be an abuse of discretion. If two or more items are presented for payment from your account on the same day, we may pay or charge the items to your account in any order without regard to any contrary instructions from you, even if paying a particular item or items causes the available balance for your account to be insufficient to pay one or more other items that otherwise could have been paid, which may result in the occurrence of additional or other service charges that otherwise may not have occurred. We may pay items drawn on us, debit your account for any service charges and other amounts that you owe us under this Agreement or otherwise, and we may exercise any rights of set off we may have against the account before we pay any other item. 

If an item was initiated at a point-of-sale terminal or a XXXX transaction or ATM, you agree that we may charge the amount of the item to your account or place a hold on your account in the amount requested by the merchant immediately upon authorization of such transaction, even though we have not then actually received the item for payment. We will make payment for a transaction only after the actual transaction is presented to us physically or electronically. Each such hold will reduce the Available Balance in your account by the amount of the hold.

Complaint:
I leased a vehicle in XXXX and the lease was serviced by US Bank. At the end of the three year lease I decided to purchase my vehicle. I took a car loan with XXXX for the payoff amount and a check was issued to US Bank on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for the purchase price of the car plus the sales tax due on the purchase of the car. I knew I had purchased the vehicle ; however I never gave any thought to the title. Out of sight out of mind, as the saying goes. 
I decided to trade in my car this month as I have had major costly mechanical problems this year. At this point I realized I never received the title for the car when I purchased it in XXXX. I called US bank on XXXX XXXX, XXXX and explained that I had never received my title. They confirmed the check they had allegedly mailed to me with the title was never cashed. I explained I was selling the car and needed the title as soon as possible. I called again on XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX the customer service representative stated US Bank would need to send me a letter, requesting {$55.00} to cover costs of securing my title. I was advised the {$55.00} was to cover the cost of mailing the title & check priority shipping. I became very upset as I was informed I could not pay over the phone with a credit card and the letter had not been mailed as of XXXX XXXX. I reiterated that I needed the title urgently and expressed my opinion that my title was being held hostage by US Bank. The did not send the original title by certified mail, why should I have to pay {$55.00} for a title they were responsible for sending me 3 years ago? The customer service representative stated they sent a follow up letter in XXXX, again not registered or certified. It is highly unlikely XXXX very important pieces of mail from US Bank would get lost by the US Postal Service. I truly believe the title was never sent. It is now XXXX XXXX ; and I have yet to receive the letter from US Bank. I have obviously lost the car I had negotiaited to purchase, but even worse I am paying a car loan for a vehicle that is not being driven because of serious mechanical problems. It is disgraceful that US Bank accepts no responsibility for a ball they dropped almost three years ago. What do I need to do to secure my title and the check for the sales taxes that they have had for almost three years? I am desperately in need of some assistance to secure the title and the sales tax payment. Thank you in advance for your help.

I applied for a wells fargo credit card. decided I did not want to change with the company I have and called to cancel my application. after speaking with several representatives at wells fargo. they agreed to pull the application and stop the process, it seems there is a hard inquiry on my credit report which affects my score. I am concerned as to why it is listed this way when I have not completed the process and wells fargo agreed to stop the action of checking my credit. I simply want the hard inquiry removed so it will not be a factor in my credit score.

Product: Payday loan
Issue: Charged fees or interest I didn't expect

Complaint:
I am an XXXX for a debt collections law firm, I know the FDCPA and FCRA to a T. This company has called my brother who is XXXX, my father, my sister, my mother and myself. The first time they ever contacted me was XXXX XXXX. I was told the debt originated in XXXX iao {$600.00} through a payday loan online service. I have never taken out a payday loan in my life. And in XXXX, I was XXXX. I think I would 've remembered {$600.00} dropping into my account. They stated that they did n't have to send me validation because they are a 'mediation ' company and that they were going to pursue suit for the debt. My father LITERALLY had to call and harass them over and over for 2 hours before they agreed to take our numbers out of their system, because the collector told him he would n't stop calling us and that he did n't have to stop! And not before they cursed him out calling him an XXXX among other things. I have n't received any calls until today - XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. I received a voicemail from XXXX, threatening to call any other references I may have provided so I called back not knowing it was the same company. Today, the story was that the debt originated in XXXX at an in store payday loan provider ( I would 've been XXXX ) and it is for {$300.00} from an in store payday loan provider company called XXXX XXXX. I have not received validation, and if this debt is valid, I will file a police report for fraud. However, if this harassment continues I will get an attorney - XXXX. I spoke with XXXX today, and they did not verify any information ( which is required for consumer protection ) and GAVE ME MY OWN SSN! I have googled the number and the situation, and many others have deemed this as a scam. I want them stopped TODAY!! I have never received any phone calls from so called XXXX XXXX XXXX advising I had this debt, never received letters - if they 're so great at locating my entire family you 'd think I would 've received one phone call? Funny how that works. When XXXX realized I knew what I was talking about, he immediately said he 'd put a hold on the account and that I would n't receive any more phone calls. If this debt is valid they 're going to have to sue me to get their money because I 'll get that dropped and file a counterclaim against them for violation of the FDCPA and they 'll have to pay me 10X more than the mere {$300.00} they say I owe. I do not owe this debt - and this is a scam. Good luck NP Group, not getting one over one me.
