Company: Big Picture Loans, LLC
State: AZ
Product: Payday loan
Issue: Charged fees or interest I didn't expect

Complaint:
We originally requested a payday loan from XXXX XXXX ( see original document sent my mail ) in XX/XX/XXXX The company misrepresented the finance charges associated with the term of the loan. We were originally told the cost of this loan was going to be {$1200.00} in interest above the original loan amount. Originally the payments came out on our paydate as expected. The amount was large ( {$280.00} twice a month ), but we knew that payday loans are an expensive form or finance, so at first we just paid and did n't really check further. After three months of payments, thinking we must surely be close to payoff, I can no longer find Castle Payday online, it is now Big Picture Loans ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ) I found this out because the payments on my check register no longer stated " XXXX XXXX '', but now " Big Picture Loans '' which did n't jive with the original agreement. Further upon trying to logon to the account, the company did not or would not publish the balance or payment schedule. Now two months later, they finally posted the payment plan and what a shock. This company is charging us 927.7664 % interest. By the time the loan is paid, it will have cost us XXXX!!!!!!!!!!! This was NOT what was represented and we do n't know what our legal rights are. We did NOT agree to this outrageous piracy. This is predatory lending. Please help! I have been told on the phone that Tribal Lending does not have to comply with Federal regulations. I 've already paid them {$3000.00} to date and the payment and payment due date keeps changing. It is no longer on our payday. This ca n't be legal. The " contract '' that says we agreed is not what we were told or given at the onset, the interest rate is DEFINITELY not what we agreed to and had we known that they consider themselves a Sovereign State, immune from federal regulation and claims ( you will be limited in what claims, if any, you may be able to assert ), we definitely would never have taken this out. We have used payday loans in the past and realize they are pricey forms of funds, but this is excessive and was not disclosed at the onset.

Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts or items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA Experian and XXXX are required by law to remove & block any account or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute item does not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove the file. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : {$1600.00} ; If Experian and XXXX feel there is a possibility the account belongs to me I will require all documentation that bears my signature ( another research item I found that requires you to verify with 100 % accuracy that each account is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If Experian and XXXX do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. SO please comply with the law so this matter can be handled swiftly.

Company: Ditech Financial LLC
State: IL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional fixed mortgage
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
We paid the first installment of our XX/XX/XXXX real estate taxes on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$7200.00} & {$430.00} ( interest ). The payment was approximately two months late. Our mortgage holder, Greentree Financial/Ditech, used this as justification to impose a Forced Escrow Account that would be attached to our mortgage account.Greentree Financial/Ditech 's subcontracted tax payment vendor, XXXX XXXX was notified about the late payment, and they SUPPOSEDLY sent a first installment check to the XXXX XXXX XXXX 's office but NO payment from XXXX was ever received or processed for this first installment by the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, onlyOUR payment was received, and it was applied to the tax bill. On XX/XX/XXXX, we paid the second installment of our taxes, {$4500.00}, which was credited to our tax account by the XXXX XXXX XXXX 's office. Greentree/Ditech 's subcontracted Tax Vendor, XXXX sent a check AFTER our taxes were already paid to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. That check hasbeen sitting at this office since that date, and it was never applied to our account because there was no outstanding balance. All this information can be verified with the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and we have attacheddocumentation validating this information with confirmationnumbers and dates of payments and payers. In XX/XX/XXXX, we began contacting Greentree/Ditech about this issue, urging them to contact the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and have their funds returned. We sent letters, faxes, made calls, etc. We supplied documentation from the XXXX XXXX XXXX 's XXXX showing that the taxes were paid in full by us, and that no funds from Greentree/Ditech had ever been applied to our account. The XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX told us that Greentree/Ditech must request that this check be returned to them, but they have never done this, in fact they have refused, because they want to impose the Escrow Account to our current mortgage. Our current mortgage payment was {$1400.00} per month, with the new Escrow Account, the proposedmortgage payment and fees would be over {$2900.00}, a 100 % increase in our monthly payment. We have decided to pay off the principal balance of ourmortgage this month, {$31000.00} ( plus interest fees ). The Escrow Account that was to begin this month should be voided, as it was to be initiated in XX/XX/XXXX, and the mortgage will be paid off before XX/XX/XXXX.

Company: Ditech Financial LLC
State: VA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional fixed mortgage
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
My loan was with XXXX XXXX XXXX. My payments were {$540.00} a month. My taxes were n't included in my loan payments. I became {$1000.00} behind on my taxes. I decided to make payment arrangements with treasurer of the city of XXXX to get my payments up to date. The bank decided to take over the payments and raised my mortgage payments to {$780.00} a month. After three months it went down to {$730.00}. I started struggling with the payments. I became one month behind. The mortgage company sent me paperwork for a long modification. Instead of lowering my payments they raised my payment to {$830.00}. After a month of trying to pay that amount I called and told them I could not afford {$830.00}. I was then XXXX months behind. I was told by the mortgage company that the only other option was to move out and do a short sale or a deed in lieu. I decided to move out. I was told by the mortgage company that they could issue a short sale or a realtor was able to. I moved out of the house in XXXX 2014. I was told to let them know when I moved out. I called them in XXXX and I was told that XXXX XXXX XXXX would no longer be servicing my loan. Green tree would be taking over and I should probably give them until XXXX to get up to speed on my account. When I called in XXXX my account was still not in there system. It was closer to XXXX that I was fully in their system. When I mentioned the short sale to them they told me that 's not how they do it. I would have to list my house for sale and try to get regular price for the house. She said let 's try to do a modification. I told her that XXXX XXXX XXXX already denied me. She said my case was easy. She had seen a lot worse cases. She then denied my modification request after two months of sending in information. Now for six months I 've been trying to do a deed in lieu. I 've sent the same information in five or six times. I have no idea what 's going with the process. No one sends information. I had to look at my credit report to find out they foreclosed my house. But when I ask them has the house been foreclosed I 'm told no. They padlocked the door and I asked them Why are telling me to remove everything out of the house for the deed in lieu when you already padlocked and foreclosed on the house. They keep telling the house has n't been foreclosed, I feel like their trying to catch me off guard in order to prevent bankruptcy. I would have known the process would have taken this long I would have never left the house. In the beginning I wanted to keep the house, now I just want the process to be over with. This is like a slow death.

Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
I had a very trying experience with Greentree and submitted a detailed complaint over a year ago ( # XXXX ). The company forced a flood policy on my account and charged me for it even though they had all the proof that my HOA held a flood policy. This forced policy made my payments erroneously inflated, which in turn made Greentree continue to call me for payments. I tried continuously for months to correct the problem and provided statements from my bank - who was making payments on my behalf. Finally, after the name change to Ditech, this company acknowledged their error and sent a refund along with a letter stating that late charges had been removed. I thought it was resolved until recently when I realized that they had reported me to the credit bureaus as a late payer! Now my stellar credit is ruined, and the score does not reflect the fact that I have always had an excellent score ( over XXXX ).

Sub-issue: Problem using a debit or ATM card

Complaint:
At around XXXX on XX/XX/2022, I used a Chase ATM to pull {$40.00} from my checking account and then left the ATM. The next day I checked my account and saw that someone had made ( 4 ) more withdrawls from my account that night without my authorization. The withdrawls were for the amounts of {$400.00}, {$200.00}, {$300.00}, and {$20.00}. The total of {$920.00} removed from my checking account without my authorization. I called Chase to report the theft on the morning of XXXX, XXXX, XXXX  and describing what the theft to the best of my knowledge. Chase creditted my account the {$920.00} while they reviewed the case and sent me a digital letter confirming this on XX/XX/2022. The person I spoke with on the phone, assured me that their team would reach out to me if they had any questions or needed additional information on the case. 

On XX/XX/2022, I received another digital letter from Chase stating that they believed the transactions had been authorized and they would be removing the credit from my account. The letter included a phone number that could be called for more information. I called this number a couple days later and was infromed that there was no more information that they could provide me, that my claim showed in their system as regected, and that there was no one they could tranfser me to that could give me more information on the claim. They stated that if I wanted more information I needed to fax or mail a letter to their back office. This information was contrary to the information I received on the provided XX/XX/2022 letter and completely unacceptable.
