Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: NE
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional fixed mortgage
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
Received foreclosure notice in XXXX 2015 from Ocwen, during the same time that I underwent a XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) .The house was scheduled for auction XXXX. I submitted the modification package as well as all requested documents by fax on XXXX XXXX. Ocwen stated there were documents missing, which I emailed twice and uploaded directly to their website. They then said it was too late to stop the foreclosure, but then stated they would send an email and try to stop it. I was told this on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. On the XXXX I was told to call the morning of the XXXX, which was the sale date, to see if the sale was stopped. My daughter called and was told it was too early to tell and to call back later in the day, and that the agent would also call us when he knew the status. We checked the website later that day and it now stated that the modification was in review. The agent called my daughter on XXXX to also advise the sale was stopped and the modification was in review. I received a letter dated XXXX stating the same. We have been checking the website daily to see the status and it still, as I type this, says it is in review. However ; I called last week to check status and was told the property is now real estate owned. My daughter immediately called the local assessors office and was told the deed was still in my name. My daughter spent hours on the phone with Ocwen, left messages with the real estate owned division XXXX, which still have not been returned, and finally spoke with someone who looked into the account and could see something was wrong. The agent said Ocwen has XXXX systems and XXXX said the loan was in modification review and the other said it was real estate owned. The agent stated that on XXXX there was a note stating the foreclosure did not go through and the loan was in review. The agent advised my daughter she would call her Monday, XXXX, with a status update, which she did not make, My daughter left her a message which was returned today, in which the agent advised the house is real estate owned. She said the modification had been denied XXXX times, and my daughter tried to explain that they were denying it because they were saying there was documentation missing, which is why the actual review did not start until XXXX. She also mentioned the letter dated XXXX and the fact that the website still says we are in review, but was met with an unconcerned response. She also mentioned we have received no documentation regarding a sale, or a modification denial. They are saying there was a sale, but we are unable to find any record of this sale with the register of deeds. Please help. We have had this house for 29 years, my daughter and her family live there and have nowhere else to go.

Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint:
Scottrade and their affiliates can not be trusted. XXXX states that to resolve a dispute ( my account was hacked ) I am required to file arbitration. However, XXXX will not provide me with an arbitration agreement. Because of this and many other issues, I am refiling this complaint against Scottrade for the fifth time with the CFPB. 

Consumers beware, I have filed more than XXXX complaints against XXXX trying to get a copy of the arbitration agreement and each time Scottrade responds with a boilerplate letter saying " we consider this issue closed and will no longer be responding ''. 

In 2013, XXXX Bank illegally offset my XXXX bank account when conspiring with their affiliates XXXX and as a result violated numerous provisions of California FINANCIAL CODE SECTION 1400-1411. 

I have requested XXXX Bank provide me information about how to file an arbitration case against Scottrade Bank and clarification over the arbitration procedures, potential conflicts, and problems, however, XXXX Bank has not responded. 

I would like Scottrade Bank to provide me with a copy of the original arbitration contract and full instructions on how to file arbitration against XXXX Bank.

I applied to First Bankcard XXXX, XXXX for a XXXX visa card XXXX  credit cards on XXXX and XXXX XXXX 2017 since I like ordering products from those websites. Receive an email stating they may need to verify my identity. I contacted the above bank and had them verify my identity.

One letter stated I was denied credit while the other application stated unable to verify identity. I was told once again on phone both applications were denied for too many applications. I assume the representative was rushing to get me off phone instead of trying to help me. If both applications were denied because excessive inquiries then both letters should of stated this information. I am therefore filing complaints because this just is n't right! I will be forced to file additional complaints since this bank being too difficult to get a card with. I do n't feel this bank cared enough to help me. I was just another application to them!

No one is responding to my inquiries. I will like my protection under the Cares Act to be in affect but if I'm being ignored by these companies, how can I be treated fairly? Attach is a letter that I sent to my creditors 2 months ago.

Complaint:
I had an account with XXXX ( Acct. XXXX ). In 2018 I had an accident and was out of work. I contacted XXXX and an associate advised that I could have two deferments on the payments. I took those and the began paying again two months later. 
When I pulled my report recently, I noticed a string of 30 day delinquencies starting in XXXX of 2018 and running through XXXX of that year. 
I contacted XXXX and found that apparently the associate I spoke to had only applied ONE of the deferments that was granted to me. 
The payments I was making after that point were simply keeping the account from going 60 days past due. 

This is an error on the part of XXXX ... NOT on my part. I have disputed this with your bureau and it remains on my file. 

Perhaps XXXX correcting it on their system is not enough to update it on your system. Regardless is is hurting my score through no fault of my own.

Complaint:
MCM # : XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 
Original Account # : XXXX XXXX : The XXXX XXXX Consumer I filed for bankruptcy on XX/XX/2020 and listed Midland Credit on my bankruptcy petition. Midland Credit deleted the trade lines from my credit reporting file after my bankruptcy was filed. However ; the following month they re-reported this information to XXXX  showing it as an open collection item although they were clearly listed in my bankruptcy petition. They have indicated in my CFPB resolution that they stopped reporting the account to the 3 credit reporting agencies which is obviously not true based on the attached documentation showing them listed as a collection item on my XXXX  credit bureau report. It seems as though there executive offices have issues understanding my complaint. I did not indicate I want the trade lines deleted but more so if they cant report them accurately to show them as included in my bankruptcy that they should delete the reporting as that they have indicated in there resolution contradicts what actually occurred on my consumer credit file.

Complaint:
I received a free listing or insertion fees promotion from Ebay. I 've bought about XXXX items and then XXXX more recently for a camera I was going to buy. This was the first time I was selling XXXX extra lenses I had. So I looked through EBay 's website for more information and see if there are additional fees involved and I could n't find anything from EBay 's promotion or website. I was charged {$35.00} by invoice recently which was a surprise. I called the company and may have been hung up on, but was told they would not waive the fees for my situation. I 've learned since the invoice of their final value fees, but I was looking in the wrong pages on their website and it was not clear to me previously. I believe it is unfair and deceptive to new sellers. There should be a fees estimate when you are ready to list an item based on recently sold items or a manually input sales price and shipping expense. It was not clear to me how these fees were calculated or when they would apply, although I have a better understanding of it now. If I would have known how much the fees were ( including Paypal, which was also not stated ahead of time and unclear what they charge, but a bit lower fee so I paid it ) I would have listed them on XXXX for free at least initially. I think Ebay should make there fees more visible as there are many items in front of the fees that draw you away, and you need to scroll down multiple pages to start finding out more information. Finally, the listing has an asterisk on selling fees in fine print, that I learned of after the sales, but does not provide more information. 

In conclusion, there are likely hundreds of thousands of people who have attempted to sell items, but did not know of the selling fees until after their first sales. I think it 's wrong, unfair, and deceptive and would like my money returned for these XXXX sales at the same time that resulted in the fees.

Complaint:
Our mortgage was transferred to GreenTree Servicing in XX/XX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX. There were confusing documentation sent from both XXXX and Greentree in regard to who and where payments were to be sent. I never rec 'd a payment booklet nor an actual statement. I waited and sent a payment in XX/XX/XXXX. The item I did receive from GreenTree said " Informational Statement '' an " This is not a bill '' ... .I paid in XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ( which they held the check long enough to charge a late fee to my account ). But in XXXX, they ret 'd my check and refused the payment that was above the amount of my house payment. SInce transferring my mortgage to GreenTree, it has been a constant complication. I have tried to deal with them but even completed a " loss mitigation/modification pkt '' in order to settle this issue. I have not been informed of the result, p/there statement but instead rec 'd a letter from a lawyer informing me my house would be up for foreclosure on XX/XX/XXXX. Essentially, we never had a prob prior to Green Tree and I have offered and tried to make payments but they have refused to take them making me further behind and adding ridiculous charges/fees. I need help to deal with these people or advice on how to do so.
