I owe XXXX at my house is worth XXXX no one will just give me a equity loan thats the reason Im trying to fix my credit Im also 100 % XXXX and cant even buy a car to go to the VA thats 50 miles away from my house XXXXm sorry to sound like Im complaining but I have a feeling there is a way for you to have an impact on my credit report like I said most things I did was secured and says I owe money that less then my money I never got a refund of what was left just an owed balance of less then the money it was secured with and that cant be right all the things I talked about with secured things should never go over what you put up and the rest of my money that I didnt use needs to be returned now reported as late payments and charged off they did that to keep my money and theres no way to make them understand that from the phone calls I been makeing Im sick of getting the run around from every one especially when I call them well that all thank you it said no personal info but I have no clue how you get in touch with me so my email is XXXX XXXX
