Complaint:
I do n't know if you can help or not. The person who called me said his/her name was  XXXX   XXXX  phone #  XXXX  claiming to be from the " mortgage lending department '' with my mortgage company,  Seterus. I w as told my loan modification was approved under the Obama program and in order to get the materials to me, I had to pay them the escrow acct deficit of approx {$1300.00}. Howeve r, Seterus  guaranteed me that this person did not work with them. I relayed this info to the supposed " mortgage lending dept '' and told them they are scammer and to never call me again. However, he/she called again and told them the same. Hopefully you can help stop these thieves with the phone # I listed here.     Thanks!

Complaint:
On  XXXX   XXXX ,    2017 I re ceived a letter fro m Citi Customer serv ice informing me of a statement credit of {$100.00} that would appear on my statement within  2 billi ng periods. I still have not received said credit. The credit, according to the letter is a result of an agreement between Citibank NA and certain of its subsidiaries and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, to customers who enrolled in Watch-Guard-Preferred.     On   XX/XX/XXXX  I call ed the number on the   X/XX/17  let ter (  XXXX  ). After giving them my information and being put on hold several times I was informed I would need to call another number (  XXXX  ) about this settlement. I called, again providing the same information, again being put on hold numerous times. I was told yet again by the customer service representative that they had no information on the refund that the letter was informing me of. They told me I would need to fax the letter to  XXXX .     O n  XX/XX/XXXX  I tried three time s to fax the letter to the number given to me. Each time the fax did not go through, the error codes said the line was either busy or there was no answer. I visited the FAQs page listed on t he letter ( www.Citi.com/RefundFAQ ) but th at listed the same phone number that was listed on the letter. The number I originally called.     I am  XXXX   years old, and t hink it is outrageous that I would be given the run around like this on a settlement that the CFP B told Citi they were r equired to refund. I am hoping you can help me bring resolution to this issue.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I originally had an auto loan for a XXXX XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXX which was opened in XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I totalled the XXXX and my insurer ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) received a 10 day payoff from XXXX XXXX due to the vehicle having been declared a total loss. XXXX received a payment via check in the amount of {$11000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. The attached paperwork that I received directly from XXXX XXXX shows the payoff was valid until XX/XX/XXXX. I also received a {$3500.00} payment from XXXX XXXX after they paid the lien holder as this is always the case if money is due after the lien is paid. I started looking at my 3 credit reports, XXXX failed to submit the correct payment of {$11000.00} they received from XXXX XXXX for the 10 day payoff XXXX provided to XXXX XXXX. After checking my reports, in XX/XX/XXXX XXXX reported that I was 30 days past due, XX/XX/XXXX I was 60 days past due, XX/XX/XXXX I was 90 days past due then in XXXX, XXXX charged off {$180.00}. How is it possible after a vehicle is declared a total loss to be XXXX days late after the lien holder has received payment in full and released the lien to the insurance company for that matter. This account still appears as a charge off as of XX/XX/XXXX. I have screenshots from each of the 3 creditors showing the inaccurate information that has been reported since XX/XX/XXXX. I also have my original sales contract, {$8000.00} down payment receipt as well as billing statements, and documents from XXXX XXXX that support this claim.

Complaint:
I have been dispu ting  XXXX  inc orrect things on my transunion credit report for months now. These  XXXX  items should be deleted off my report. I received confirmation yesterda y  X/XX/2017  th at these  XXXX  items were finally deleted off my  XXXX  credit report. So it has been confirmed after there investigation that the items were to be deleted however transunion will not allow me onto the website to re-dispute them again and everytime I call transunion I keep getting transferred to different agents. The  XXXX  account is    XXXX   XXXX   XXXX    the  XXXX  account is  XXXX . These  XXXX  accounts are reporting as deragatory and they do not belong on my credit report. I have contacted   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX    cor porate office months ago and it was rectified it was to be deleted. I also contacted  XXXX  and that also has been rectified. I was instructed to re-dispute this information with the credit reporting agency 's and they will respond to have them deleted. Like I mentioned earlier  XXXX  has done so as of yesterday but transunion is still reporting this. Having this incorrect information reporting as negative is affecting my  credit score.   Transunion is not doing a proper investigation or they would be receiving notice from the  XXXX  different creditors to delete off my report. I am fustrated at the fact that I can not get online even with a confirmation number/answering all the security questions etc ... ..then I spend so much time on the phone trying to get to speak to someone to rectify this problem.

Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint:
In the process of purchasing a new home, I requested from the Mortgage  Lender the A ppraisal Report that I paid for. Th e Loan Specialist on mo re then  three occasio ns and over the recorded phone line stated it was against 'Federal Regulations '', to give me the report I ordered and paid for.   I found an article in the Was hington Post from  XX/XX/XXXX  th at stated a law was put into place to help / protect the consumer and I was entitled to the report. I forwarded the article on   XX/XX/XXXX  to the Lender  and on    XX/XX/XXXX  I was gi ven  that report.   I should n't have to battle with t he Loan Specialist to get what I am entitled too and the fact she kept insisting it was against federal guidelines was incorrect.      Consumers need to be aware of what they are entitled too especially if they are paying for the service.

Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: TX
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
While reviewing mortgage payment history on XX/XX/XXXX, there were several NSF charges that appeared even though our monthly mortgage checks were being received and processed by Newrez every month. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called Newrez to ask about the charges and the Newrez representative stated the fees were for non-sufficient funds. I explained to the representative that no such condition existed since our monthly mortgage checks were being received and processed by Newrez. The representative then shifted his explanation by stating that the fees were to pay off an " NSF fee balance '' from XX/XX/XXXX. I again explain that no NSF situation occurred and referenced Newrez 's own payment history on their online portal. The representative placed me on an extended hold and then finally stated that the fees would be refunded. 

This is our 4th complaint with Newrez regarding deceptive business practices in managing our mortgage. Newrez provided false information during the initial explanation ( which we have complained on before ) and then they attempted to falsely explain non-existent fees. The fees were eventually credited on XX/XX/XXXX, however, their payment history is so disorganized with multiple duplicate entries, incorrect entries, and mislabeled entries that it makes it difficult to determine how much of a payment was applied to where.

Issue: Fees or interest
Sub-issue: Problem with fees

Complaint:
Due to medical issues I have been experiencing with a XXXX XXXX XXXX, I mistakenly missed paying an {$8.00} balance on my XXXX XXXX XXXX card that is issued by Comenity Bank. I paid it as soon as I realized the oversight. I was charged an almost {$9.00} late fee which I feel is unreasonable and unfair and possibly a UDAAP violation to charge double the balance for a fee. I emailed several times and the reps took several days to get back to me and advised me to call in. This month, they have now charged me a late fee on a late fee so the balance has grown to over {$24.00}. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX by phone and today spoke with a supervisor who was only willing to credit {$14.00}. They acknowledge my great payment history since XX/XX/XXXX with one exception of a courtesy late fee credit extended in XX/XX/XXXX. I manage this account as well as all of my accounts with Comenity perfectly. I do not think this is a fair way to treat a customer and very greedy for them to continue to charge me fees on a balance that only consists of fees, especially when the balance is so small. This issue is not worth the time it has taken for me to try to find someone to be reasonable with me and yet Comenity refuses to make an exception for a great customer and continues to quote their policy to me. I will not be using this card any longer.

Complaint:
TransUnion and XXXX XXXX system has majorly violated my credit report by reporting this inaccurate account. 

This account was deleted from my credit report and re-inserted which is a violation under FCRA 611 part A, 5 B ( ii ) by failing to provide a written notice within 5 days Further more they added this account back and reported a late payment it is impossible for a collection to report a late payment. 

They have also re-aged the date of last activity which should reflect the last date a payment was made. 

Furthermore I have no knowledge of this collection and do not have any agreement with advance recovery system. It is a violation to assume that I owe a debt that hasnt been properly validated

Complaint:
I overpaid my credit card account and am owed a total of {$780.00} and was contacted/advised that my account was closed due to XXXX reporting that I was a high risk account. 

I have earned approximately {$930.00} in rewards for use on the Amazon card through Amazon 's website. I was told these rewards would be forfeited. 

I believe the account was either mistakenly closed or closed due to inaccurate information obtained from XXXX or provided to myself. 

I spoke with XXXX, ID XXXX XXXX, Manager, and he explained to me that the points would be forfeited upon the account closure at their pleasure. I find this to be unacceptable since it was already agreed upon that I would receive points for making purchases on Amazon 's website.

Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan
Sub-issue: Can't get other flexible options for repaying your loan

Complaint:
Throughout the time of repayment for my student loans, anytime I had an issue with the size of my payment or was unable to pay. The  XXXX   XXXX  now Navient always advised a forbearance was needed to do in order to keep my loans in good standing. I was late once by 5 days i n   XX/XX/XXXX   due to m  oving from  XXXX  to  XXXX . They have refused to remove that one late payment from my   credit reports. Even though it was due to things out of my contro ls. ( My sp ouse passed away and I had to reloc ate ) Due to the  number of forbearance received s ince  XX/XX/XXXX  -  XX/XX/XXXX , my loan s have accumulated to over $ {$130000.00}. My original loan was from   XX/XX/XXXX  for {$ 33000.00} with  XXXX   XXXX  and my second loan was also     XXXX   XXXX   for {$28000.00}. My student loans went from {$62000.00}  In  XX/XX/XXXX , mont hly payments were {$570.00}, I n  XX/XX/XXXX , {$640.00} In  XX/XX/XXXX , {$800.00 } In   XX/XX/XXXX ,  {$940.00} And in   XX/XX/XXXX to today -  {$970.00} My loan value has never decreased only continued to increase even though I have made payments consistently since my last forbearance. I was unemployed several times during those 6 years, but did make payments even if only interest. In   XX/XX/XXXX , Nav ient suggested I consolidate my loans which would lower my payments. So I did complete the consolidation, which brought my loan amount to {$970.00} per month . In  XX/XX/XXXX  al one, they have capitalized interest in over {$12000.00}. Prior years the interest was roughly {$3000.00} - {$4000.00} total, for exampl e  XX/XX/XXXX interest was {$3600.00} total, was In  XX/XX/XXXX  it also tr ipled to {$120000.00}.     I struggle to make the payment each month, but I do n't want to call and ask for assists as they will say a forbearance is the only option again. They have been exceptionally rude and not interest in discussing my options. I do n't know many people who can make an almost {$1000.00} payment every month with the amount going up each year for the next 20 years. I do not believe my payments were posted correctly. Based on their system, I have my interest added then payments made in 10 years! I pay over {$11000.00} per year and they charge my account with over the total payments each year!!!     Navient has set up my student loans with so many forbearance that I will never be able to pay this off in my lifetime. I was never offered any other options. I tried income based for 1 year and they then told me I needed to consolidate.
