Complaint:
I am submitting this CFPB complaint to request to the Credit Reporting Agencies to please do their job accordingly.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act section 605b, the Credit Reporting Agencies are required to remove the disputed accounts and information from my Credit File that resulted due to identity theft. I previously sent a dispute letters on XX/XX/XXXX, with complete attachments of my personal identifying documents as well as the identity theft report I received from the FTC. Once again, these accounts and information that are being reported on my Credit File are unknown to me and needs to be deleted as soon as possible. Under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I am in need to remove the following items completely from my Credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TN XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MO XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX CO XXXX XXXX Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$760.00} XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$240.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$51.00} XXXXXXXX XXXX Original Creditor XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance Owed : {$820.00} XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX

Complaint:
Dear sir/madam, as I was going through my credit report on XXXX and XXXX few months ago, then I noticed a negative report on my credit. The negative report was from a Company called SWISS COLONY ASHRO and Another company called XXXX XXXX XXXX. Any time I dispute the accounts, they kept sending me a letter at my home address saying they investigated the dispute and notice it was mine. First I have never had any account with SWISS COLONY ASHRO and XXXX XXXX XXXX, Second, They have to explain which address I was living when I acquired this dept. .I do n't know how they got my social security and my date of birth because I know I have never had any account with SWISS COLONY ASHRO or any of it affiliates. 
I am requesting that SWISS COLONY ASHRO and XXXX 'S XXXX or any of their affiliates should remove such negative and false statement from my credit report THIS COMPANIES ARE AFRAUDULENT COMPANIES, first they came up with the name XXXX XXXX XXXX account number XXXX on my credit report. after so many dispute I submitted against the account, I was forced to pay dept in the sum of {$45.00}. The dept I did not own, the dept that does not have my name on it. 
After that they came up with another name SWISS COLONY ASHRO with same account number XXXX stating that I was owing them. This is fraud I do n't own this companies any money and I never had any transaction with them I do n't even know the kind of business they do. They have to pay me back the XXXX dollars they fraudulently took from me. 

Dear sir/madamI want your office to go through my credit report to verify my statement. my credit report has so many names I do n't know where they came from. I contacted XXXX AND XXXX REGARDING THIS MATTER, all they said was that they can not remove those name because some companies like XXXX 'S and SWISS COLONY ASHRO reported some account to my credit report with the names. 
I want your office to investigate this matter because any time I dispute these XXXX companies that has XXXX account number XXXX and XXXX kept saying the investigation stated that the account was mine. 

THIS IS FALSE INVESTIGATIONin the year 2013 when I wanted to open online account with XXXX, the man who spoke to me from XXXX told me that someone already opened the online accountwith my social security which I have no knowledge of who that was. Then the XXXX representative later cleared it off and created a new account for me. I want your office to investigate all these because I have filed so many compliant regarding the information on my credit report and most of the company claim they investigated the case which I knew all their so called investigations was not done right.

Complaint:
Navient is my lender for private student loans and also services my DOE and federal loans. My private student loans are behind because they wo n't work with me to make them affordable. I use their website to keep my federal and DOE loans, but they have locked my account. After several calls, they wo n't issue me a temporary password to access my loans online until my private loans are resolved.

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

Complaint:
Mr. cooper is a third class money hungry, greedy company. I applied for financial hardship on XX/XX/2020, after one month of deliberation, dragging my case and unnecessarily asking me for the documents which were not required they have come up with a six months forbearance program in which I have to pay them {$160.00} every month for six months, they have come to a conclusion that I have no financial difficulty, are they out of their mind? I have provided them food stamps letter from the county and also my unemployment letter from the state and they are saying I have no permanent financial difficulty, which illiterate is underwriting their loan terms and conditions. In this epidemic of coronavirus how can they say that I have no financial difficulty. The whole economy has collapsed, so where will I make my money from? 


They still want 5 % interest from me and {$1900.00} just in interest every month, this is ridiculous. 

And top of all they will report me delinquent to the credit bureaus each month for the next six months and at the end of six months of forbearance I will have to pay a whopping amount of {$18000.00}, is Mr Cooper out of their mind? Since XX/XX/2020 since I applied for the hardship I am telling them to give me a permanent solution to the mortgage problem as I am hit really hard from Coronavirus and also going through an active divorce, so how can they ignore all this. After one month of deliberation they have come up this with this senseless forbearance program which doesn't make any sense. It just tells that how greedy they are and they just want money and do not care about people.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: DE
Product: Credit card
Issue: Rewards

Complaint:
I took out my Bank of America credit card to pay all of my wedding expenses, with the expectation that I could pay it back after my wedding ( from the 0 % 12 month APR ) plus get a small cash back bonus from my purchases. I 've used the card for over {$5000.00} worth of wedding expenses, and have XXXX points. I am getting ready to pay off the card now that my wedding is over, and I am trying to redeem the points. 

When I took out the card, I was mislead to believe that the rewards acted as cash back. I did n't realize that the rewards were to be used to credit travel expenses only. I called BAC several times to try to redeem the points ; ticket # XXXX was created to have my points redeemed for full cash value as a one time courtesy due to this confusion, which equates to {$270.00} ( vs. the 60 % or so that was originally quoted to me ). Then, when I called in today, I was told that they can not honor this redemption at all. 

This is a great example of a credit card company offering a misleading, hard to use reward system. I entrusted BAC to help pay for my wedding and was lured in by a ridiculous, misleading reward system.

I also have funds in the account that were to be transferred to my bank and those funds were never transferred as well as my account being shut down. The company has sent ONE email with very little information and I was advised that funds will be held for 120 days, I may or may not receive the funds after that time.

This company has made kept my money during a pandemic and made it impossible to get any customer service to fix this issue. I am self employed after covid and have XXXX small children. This is devastating to my livelihood.

Company: ZINC Financial, Inc.,
State: CA
Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Charged fees or interest you didn't expect

Complaint:
I recently took out a hard money loan form Zinc Financial , Inc to purchase a fixer upper. My loan includes a mortgage loan and a construction loan. The amount of the mortgage is in the amount of {$340000.00}, and the construction loan is {$130000.00}. I am currently paying interest on the full amount of the construction loan despite the fact that I have not drawn from it. From my understanding, it is not a standard practice to pay interest on a construction loan that hasnt been drawn from or used. 

I signed the contract for the mortgage loan and the construction loan in XX/XX/2022. I have contacted Zinc Financial , Inc to discuss their practice of charging interest on a construction loan that I havent drawn from on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. I talked to both XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX about this matter, and they both stated that this is a standard practice of Zinc Financial. When I requested to see a document that advertises this practice of theirs to share with a lawyer, they would NOT share it with me. As I mentioned, I have written emails and left voicemails requesting a written document that advertises this practice of Zinc Financial on charging interest on a construction loan that has not been drawn from, and I have received no response or acknowledgement of my request.
