Consumer complaint received 2023-09-18
Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: VA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process
Sub-issue: Private mortgage insurance (PMI)

Complaint:
XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  of XXXX I reached out to my mortgage lender via phone to inquire on the process to remove the PMI from my loan. After speaking with the customer service agent I decided to move forward. The representative read me some brief disclosures and processed a payment of {$190.00} to complete the submission of the PMI removal request. 

XX/XX/XXXX XXXX the authorized person from the realty company came to my home to do the walk-thru inspection along with taking pictures for the review. XXXX XXXX  the realtor reached out to me and asked about improvements and I sent her a list and approximate dates the same day. 

A few days later I get a packet in the mail from Regions mortgage saying they denied my request to remove the PMI due to me being at 77 % LTV. I immediately called the mortgage company to understand if my current LTV is under 80 % what was the problem? She began to take me through details from the inception of the loan and not the current consideration of what was being asked. Finally she stated none of the improvements were included in the request when the realtor submitted. It was suggested to open up an appeal and submit the information there on the site.

The same or next day I submitted the documentation of improvements w/approximate dates and value based on a sheet the mortgage company provided on their website. A few days later I get a voicemail saying I need to submit a statement about the appeal, so I then provided that. A month later I get another denial ( paraphrasing ) saying the information was already included in the initial request. 

Please also consider when I submitted my request to remove the PMI none of the disclosures read to me stated the minimum LTV had to be at 75 % or less if your mortgage loan is XXXX XXXX XXXX. Had this information been stated or read to me I would not have given Regions Mortgage {$190.00} as it would not have been a reasonable or viable option for me.

Complaint:
I transferred my services from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2023 to XXXX XXXX . The agents from both companies were on the line as well as myself when it was confirmed that my account was closed and number ported to new carrier. The next couple of days I get a charge for monthly bill from XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2023 on a closed account. For the last couple of weeks I have had claim after claim denied for funds to be returned to card. Boost mobile claims even thought the account was closed and disconnected from their server that Autopay was still pulling funds. On XX/XX/2023 they removed autopay but account was still closed. Boost mobile claims they have no way to refund me the money do to the account no longer being active. Yet it was active to take it but not active to give it back. Every agent of XXXX XXXX had no way of helping me since I am no longer a customer. The Wireless company has advised me to go through Bank connected to card, Which is Cash App/XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  . I have been around the sun and back about this dispute, my funds are suppose to be secured through the above banks because I have a their debit card.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
I hope this letter finds you well. I am reaching out to challenge an inconsistency found under the " XXXX XXXX '' section in my credit report. This relates specifically to the account listed below which has been categorized as charged off : XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX is showing my last payment date was XX/XX/XXXX and I've never been XX/XX/XXXX days late if that's true then why did my car get reposssesed because of late payments? 

XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX is showing my last payment date was XX/XX/XXXX and I've never been XX/XX/XXXX days late if that's true then why is this charged off as bad debt still on here? 

Upon thorough review of my credit report, I noticed that this charged-off account is persistently reported as maintaining an active XXXX payment history. This is not accurate and consequently, in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), as it erroneously influences the statute of limitations. 

Under the stipulations of the FCRA, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and XXXX XXXX compliance guidelines, I am entitled as a consumer to have accurate representation of all details in my credit report. With these consumer protection laws in mind, I respectfully request that you rectify this mistake by deleting the incorrect data from my credit report. Following the completion of this, kindly supply me with an updated version of my credit report that reflects the required corrections. 

As a consumer, it is my right to have access to precise and current information on my credit report. I anticipate all credit reporting agencies to uphold this obligation, in alignment with the FCRA and other applicable XXXX XXXX Laws. 

In light of this apparent oversight, I implore you to immediately expunge this inaccurate information from my credit report. Upon completion of this correction, please provide an updated version of my credit report for my review. 

I appreciate your prompt attention to this crucial matter.

Complaint:
In XXXX 2022 I had my credit score run when I was looking to buy a house. My score was XXXX because of my nearly perfect credit history ( i.e. no missed or late payments, no outstanding accounts ). A few months later, I noticed that my credit score dropped significantly, over 100 points. I looked into this further and it turns out that one of my credit cards that I don't use -- my XXXX card -- had XXXX unauthorized charges on it for {$10.00} and {$18.00} in XX/XX/2022. I was not made aware of this until XXXX when I noticed my credit had dropped, because XXXX reported the unpaid charges and associated late fees equally {$120.00} to all three credit agencies. I immediately reached out to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX department to clear this up. I disputed the charges, which were refunded and my account balance returned to {$0.00}. However, all three credit agencies are still reporting a 60 day late notice on my credit report, resulting in a dramatically lowered credit score, which really has disastrous effects on my financial life at this point. I have disputed this issue with all three credit agencies twice, and this issue has yet to be resolved. I am attaching documentation showing the {$28.00} and associated late fees refunded by XXXX to show my account back to {$0.00} and in good standing. I desperately need this off of my credit report, which was previously perfect without any late payments or outstanding accounts. As a financially independent single person trying to buy a home and make a life for myself with high student loans and no financial help from family or friends, it is imperative that I maintain good credit to be able to achieve my goals. I've worked incredibly hard to keep my credit perfect, and this has been an incredible source of stress and concern, and an issue that can cost me tens of thousands of dollars over time if I take out a mortgage or car loan with a lowered credit score. Thank you very much for your help in having this 60 day late fee notice removed from my credit score at all three credit agencies and repairing my credit and credit limit with XXXX.

I, XXXX XXXX XXXX, am verifying that I, XXXX XXXX XXXX, am mailing out this information. In doing so, this plus my SSN and I.D is enough proof of validation. I have noticed inaccuracies on my consumer report. It is extremely urgent that you remove any addresses that are not the one listed below.

According to 15 USC 1681e Compliance and Procedures section ( b ) Accuracy of report : Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.

I have already sent mail out and it has been over 30 DAYS before I received a response which now means the credit reporting agency is now in VIOLATION of my consumer financial rights! Second, the F.C.R.A states, Section 607. Compliance and Procedures [ 15 U.S.C 1681e ] ( b ) Accuracy of report, the CRA must provide me with a copy of my consumer report at 100 % accuracy at all times! These addresses and old personal information do not belong to me and are inaccurate therefore violating my consumer rights. Lastly, F.C.R.A says, Section 609. Disclosures to consumers [ 15 U.S.C. 1681g ] Every consumer reporting agency shall, upon request, and subject to 610 ( a ) ( 1 ) [ 1681h ], clearly and accurately disclose to the consumer. These errors must be fixed at once. Once done send me report of everything removed
