Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: PA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: VA mortgage
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
I was a mortgage holder with Freedom last year. I proceeded with a refinance that closed at the end of XXXX, XXXX. For some reason there was an issue between the title company payoff and Freedom. This resulted in an outstanding balance on my account ( which should have been closed ). I received a bill for XXXX XXXX and called Freedom immediately. I was told by the customer rep that it was an error and that the account should be closed. I then received a bill in XXXX and called again. They were 'looking into it. ' After this call I engaged my new lender and their title company that had processed the transaction. I authorized the title company to speak with Freedom on my behalf. This whole issue was supposed to undergo a 'management review ' on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. This is more than four months after the initial issue. Since that time the review has been pushed back to XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, and as of this writing ( XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ) I have not heard of any resolution. I have spent HOURS on the phone with Freedom trying to resolve this. It needs to be corrected NOW. My credit score has also dropped by over a hundred points since this began.

Complaint:
Refinanced home with 5/3rd Bank in XXXX of XXXX. The statement on XXXX showed a charge posted on XXXX of {$1300.00}, listed as " SHORT PAYOFF ''. The explanations I have received over the phone have been unclear and seem to indicate a mistake being made in the original closing. They have said that we were credited twice for something. I have requested in that an explanation be sent to me in writing with all the math. I have not received that information and am concerned that INTEREST is accumulating on that fee, charge, or whatever they want to call it. I have spoken with the person at XXXX on : XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ; XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ; XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ; XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ; and XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. 
I find it hard to believe that they can can not explain this charge.

Company: BMO HARRIS BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: IL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Home equity loan or line of credit
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
To who may concern, This update is continuing for previous complain and recent BMO Harris bank action of my home equity line of credit. I started my proces two and half months before my maturity date XX/XX/2016.All documents required by the bank has been promptly delivered on day one and no additional paperwork after that. Through that time I received offer that Harris bank declined itself by saying they overlooked some details. 
Then all two months no communication about specific product of modification, new home equity line of credit until 3 business days before my maturity date I received some documents ( see attached files ). First two months old decline offer, second bill for {$150.00} and third info about hardship and foreclosure. This only proves that the BMO Harris bank has no interest to protect that time bank 's money of {$150.00} while bank estimated my home value for {$120.00} ( well underpriced and initial complain describe that I offered {$50.00} down to keep going with helc ). 
Set it all together it shows fot the BMO Harris bank 's dirty practices and I believe that cases like this one would halp the state and federal law enforcement agencies to protect other customers against this bank. 
Sincerely XXXX

Company: BMO HARRIS BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MN
Product: Bank account or service
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint:
I opened a checking account with BMO Harris bank on XX/XX/XXXX. I opened this account in the XXXX XXXX, MN branch location. I brought with me a coupon for a promotion to open the account. The coupon and the bonus terms and conditions are attached to this file. The terms are that I will receive a {$200.00} bonus for opening a new account and setting up a recurring direct deposit of {$300.00} or more. The terms say that the bonus will be credited within 120 days. I contacted BMO Harris Bank and asked why my bonus was not credited. Initially, I was told it would be credited to my account within 10 business days. Later I was told that I did not meet the terms of the contract. I was told that I had an account open within the past year. This is not true. The most recent time I held an account, in any form, with BMO Harris, was XX/XX/XXXX. According to a BMO customer service representative, I closed that account on XX/XX/XXXX. The terms of the offer say : " Offer not available to existing BMO Harris personal checking account customers or those who have closed a BMO Harris personal checking account within the past 12 months of opening a new account as part of this promotion. '' Since I opened my new account on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and closed my most recent previous account on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I did not have an account with BMO Harris for over a year, and during no part of 12 consecutive months. I have otherwise met the terms and conditions of this offer and as such, BMO Harris is in breach of contract. They have refused to credit the {$200.00} bonus to my new checking account after 120 days. I also feel that this is false advertising on the part of the bank, and has wasted some of my time and likely the time of its employees in researching this matter. I acted in good faith, met the terms of the offer, and expect the bank to hold up its end of the deal.

Sub-issue: Debt is not mine

Complaint:
XXXX is once again attempting to collect on the bogus final payment of {$160.00}. XXXX contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX., XX/XX/2016. The case no. was XXXX and case No., XXXX. 

After corresponding with both the cfpb and XXXX, I received notification from XXXX that " We ( XXXX ) consider this matter closed as of XXXX/XXXX/2016. '' Now this same bill for {$160.00} has been assigned to another debt collector FBCS at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX., XXXX XXXX, XXXX, PA XXXX. The FBCS Case No. is XXXX. 

XXXX failed in their notices to me and to XXXX to identify the billing period associated with this expense. The equipment was returned prior to the next billing cycle, and my XXXX connection was disconnected prior to the start of my next billing cycle. My final XXXX bill of {$11.00} was paid and check # XXXX because that is what I owed XXXX. This check was cashed as well. No explanation was given for the next charge of {$160.00}. 

How do I stop XXXX from the continued harassment and bogus debts they insist I owe? Please help me and stop XXXX from this type of attack on my credit. 

I now have to notify the FBCS within 30 days and explain again that this is a bogus billing for which XXXX has no valid explanation. Otherwise FBCS will deem " this debt to be valid. '' I do n't want to be dealing with this problem for the rest of my life and I will not be pressured and coerced into paying a bill I do not owe.

Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive notice of right to dispute

Complaint:
For the past few months, I've been writing letters to Penn Credit requesting verification of this account. I even filed a complaint with you last month asking you to enforce my right to dispute and receive validation of the debt. I have received no response at all from Penn Credit, and now I know why. ALL the mail that I've sent to them was returned to me, in bulk. ALL of it. They moved, and they did not update their address with the credit bureaus, which is a requirement under the FCRA as they have to report 100 % factual information to the bureaus, if they are going to report at all. They have violated my rights granted under the FCRA, FDCPA, and FACTA, all by reporting incorrect information to the credit bureaus! Last month, I demanded justice, this month, I make the same demand. FIX THIS NOW! I have attached a credit report from the credit monitoring service that I am enrolled with, which clearly  shows an address that they are no longer receiving mail at.

Sub-issue: Problem with customer service

Complaint:
I paid off the balance of my Sam 's club Synchrony card XX/XX/XXXX and therefore had a zero balance. On XX/XX/XXXX Synchrony processed a payment for {$270.00} resulting in a overpayment of - {$270.00}. 
XX/XX/XXXX I called customer service and was not made aware of any payment hold on the {$270.00}. The representative told me she would be submitting approval for an expedited check for the overpayment. She also said I'd be receiving a call back in 2 days from a representative. I never received a call XX/XX/XXXX I called again and was not made aware of any payment hold by the Supervisor. When asked about my previous call the XXXXupervisor had no records of the representative requesting my expedited check or call back. The Supervisor said to submit bank proof the payment was taken via Sams Club Synchrony XXXX. Proof was submitted same day. I asked her to verify she received it, but was told she was unable to check while on the call. She let me know the check would go out the following day since it was pass the cut off time for the day. 
XX/XX/XXXX I called again and was put on hold for XXXX with no response. Hung up and Called again and spoke to Supervisor XXXX. He didn't make me aware of such hold until I asked about it. He also had no record of my request of overpayment from my XX/XX/XXXX phone call. He let me know the check had still not been issued. He put in a request to have the check issued and let me know it wouldn't be sent till Monday because of cut off time. 

I should not have to call 4 times to resolve an issue with this company. I should have my request done the first time I ask and not be lied to. Synchrony should have never processed the payment with a zero balance on the account. I should not be deceived by their call representatives just to get me off the phone. These are deceptive and unlawful practices to prevent me from receiving overpayment funds.
