Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
My husband and I have been trying to get a loan modification with Shellpoint Mortgage Company for few months now. We are also working with our attorney ; three months ago he recommended we do a Chapter XXXX in the meanwhile try to get a loan modification with Shellpoint. The problem with the Chapter XXXX was that our trustee 's payment was raised during this time. On XX/XX/XXXX we submitted a loan modification package to Shellpoint Mortgage and we received a response from Shellpoint dated XX/XX/XXXX indicating they assigned a new specialist to assist us thru the lost mitigation process. We have made many attempts to get a hold of our specialist dedicated to our file but he never responded back. Every time we call they tell us they require more documents and every time we send them and come back with another request of forms or adjustments on forms. For example : they requested our XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX taxes and we complied. They told us to call back in a few days to follow up and I did only for them to tell me that they did not receive our taxes. 

Finally after submitting a complain I hear back from our specialist. HE told us he had received a package. And that he was sending a realtor to our home to do a home appraisal. This was on a Monday. On wednesday we recieved a phone call from Shellpoint indicating that we are eligible for a loan modification. That we would have to give a XXXX down payment. They told us they would put everything in writting and mail it to us. Well on Friday evening we get a call from Shellpoint and they tell us sorry the investors would not approve the loan modification. And on Monday morning our home goes into Auction and we get foreclosed on.

Complaint:
My physician contracted with a XXXX party to provide medical services for their clients.

I disputed this bill with the XXXX party and they failed to respond. Instead, they outsourced their bill to a collection agency.

Five years later, another collection agency reported the bill to the credit bureau in 2015 without contacting me. I disputed this bill through XXXX who closed the dispute after two weeks when the new collection agency simply stated that is was my debt without any validation, nor XXXX ask for any. I am filing this complaint and asking XXXX to re-open a dispute and handle it appropriately and in accordance with the law. I am also re-disputing this debt with the new collection agency in writing again. As I understand the new rules medical debts can not be reported for 180 days while they are being investigated. I am very concerned that instead of dealing with the matter, this agency will drop it and it will show up with another agency.

Complaint:
I was taken by ambulance to the emergency room in XX/XX/XXXX in XXXX Maryland. I paid for the hospital bills as well as the ambulance fees when they were billed at the time at my address. 

As of XX/XX/XXXX I am receiving calls from XXXX now that I owe {$100.00} to a doctors ' billing company. XXXX claims that the billing company could not locate my address, even though the other bills came to my address with no problem. Also, the 'old address ' that XXXX XXXX the contact at XXXX, claimed they were using to try to bill me is a totally inaccurate address pieced together from some of my prior addresses. 

XXXX filed a collections report with Equifax in XX/XX/XXXX - long before I 'd been contacted or had any chance to verify their claims and settle the matter. As XXXX explained to me - they were unable to find an address or any way to get a bill to me. There is no way a collections charge should be applied to my credit score for a charge of which I had no knowledge.

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I closed an account at XXXX XXXX and took the cashiers check to my Bank, Branch Banking and Trust, XXXX XXXX, XXXX Va, to open a savings account to be linked to my checking account. I have had a checking account with BB & T since XX/XX/XXXX and have always handled the account in a satisfactory manner. I had a balance of {$8000.00} in the checking account, collected funds. While at BB & T they treated me like a criminal, but that is not why I am complaining. I opened the saving account for {$20000.00}. Approximately {$19000.00} with the cashiers check and the other transferred from my checking account. I am complaing because they pulled a credit report on me without my authorization. It showed up on Equifax as a hard pull. BB & T never disclosed to me that they would be running a credit report. Now the inquiry shows up on my credit report indicating I was trying to get credit. I never asked they for any credit and told them that I had no interest in receiving overdraft banking or a credit card. They put the cashiers check on a 7 day hold, which was fine with me. This should have given the proper assurance that the transaction would be valid.

My roof was destroyed, along with my garage, and water damage.I am single parent working on a teachers salary, apparently to be a victim of disaster means nothing to XXXX.Who is only concerned about money.

When I informed the servicing agent that I was in construction for repairs they backed off the mortgage modification and said they could not do anything in the matter or do any refinanciing. The Bank then raised my monthly payments to roughly {$1800.00} per month which I could not pay. They then created a scheme of charging me for late payments and interest on payments they claimed were due in XX/XX/XXXX and the last statement indicated that I owed over {$92000.00}. The bank filed a XXXX foreclosure in XX/XX/XXXX. This new foreclosure has halted the reconstuction on the property because I ca n't get any financing or refinancing to work the construction From a principal balance of {$56000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX I now owe over $ XXXX.in XXXX months. 
I bought the residence in XX/XX/XXXX it has a market analysis value of between {$950.00} to {$980000.00} It is roughly an acre of land with a natural beasch at the waterfron and the road side of the property faces a small park.

Wells Fargo Bank MasterCard upon reissuing credit card, changed my name on the new card without my authorization. The name on the current card is not mine rendering the card useless. After months of asking the bank ( staff, local bank mamager, finally CEO ) to correct the error back to my name, they continue to require that I submit a written change of name authorization request which I refuse to do as it sets a dangerous precedent. The bank refuses to admit their error and has, so far, refused to either provide me with a copy of a name change authorization that erroneously changed the name on my card or to correct the name back. I 'm at the end of my rope and prepared to persue legal action against bank.
