Consumer complaint received 2015-06-03
Company: FORD MOTOR CREDIT CO.
State: NJ
Product: Consumer Loan
Sub-product: Vehicle loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint:
My wife purchased a car from a XXXX dealership in XXXX XXXX, New Jersey. This purchase was financed at the time of the purchase through Ford Motor Credit. The purchase consisted of a down payment with the balance to be paid in monthly installments over a XXXX year term. On the same day financing was set up - we enrolled in automatic ( recurring ) payments from our deposit account. Nevertheless, each month my wife would log on to Ford Motor Credit 's web portal to make each installment payment and effectively overrode the auto-pay function. In the first part of this year we failed to manually make the payment as we were out of the Country ( XXXX ) and we were for the XXXX time relying on the auto-pay to make all of all periodic payments ( including this auto installment loan ). When my wife logged on the following month to make a manually payment, she was informed that the payment was not processed. She immediately made that payment ( inclusive of a late fee ) and the following XXXX, in addition to orally confirming with Ford Motor Credit 's customer service that the auto-pay was active for future months. In inquiring about the matter, I was informed by that our auto-pay request was not transferred from dealership to Ford Motor Credit when we initially financed the vehicle, but is now confirmed to be active on this account. There is now an inaccurate derogatory mark on my wife 's credit history because of their error which is negatively affecting our ability to purchase a new home. 

We reached out to Ford Motor Credit regarding this error in which they responded with a form ( XXXX ) letter that failed to address the claim. To wit they responded : " [ t ] o prevent derogatory information from being reported to the credit bureaus, the full payment must be received, or an extension requested and processed before the payment is XXXX days past due. As the reported information accurately reflects our experience with your account, we will not request the Credit Reporting Agencies to remove it from your credit file. '' The account was not XXXX days past due, rather any failure to process the full installment payment was a result of their own failure to execute the previously authorized automatic electronic funds transfer from our deposit account.

Complaint:

I disputed the debt and the collector could n't verify it was owed so it was removed. In XXXX XXXX I ordered my XXXX annual bureau reports and found XXXX and XXXX also had the collection listed by them so I filed disputes with them around XXXX XXXX, XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX reported the creditor could n't verify debt owed and it was removed from my report. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX reported that the collector had in fact verified that I was responsible for the debt and the collection would remain on their credit report for me. XXXX also said they could n't furnish me any documents from the dispute and they did not investigate but went by what the collector supplied to them. I was told to contact the collector for documents when I asked how could a collector not be able to verify a debt with XXXX bureaus but was able to verify with XXXX. I contacted the collection agency after receiving those documents to tell it the information sent from the company they were representing, XXXX XXXX, was false. The company is a former employer that is trying to represent travel expenses as a personal loan to me. I sent the collector copies of receipts beginning with a rental car receipt from XXXX XXXX, XXXX, paid for by XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I included taxi, hotel and fuel receipts showing what I was reimbursed for and my bank statements showing the sums being deposited to my account. The former employer is claiming the final receipts I submitted on XXXX XXXX, XXXX were a loan instead of travel expenses as retaliation for choosing to end my employment that day because after spending over 20 days in FL hotels after they sent me to get a vehicle from a shop, and it ended right back in the shop the next day in a hotel they paid for in XXXX FL for about 3 days, and then the day after it left that shop it ended up in another shop in the XXXX FL area, leaving me in another hotel for until XXXX XXXX.

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX from Prime Lending in XXXX is deceiving and should get fired and not get a job where anybody has to depend on him. He is/was the lender for the buyer of our home. According to the contract, we were scheduled to close 45 days out ... plenty of time for my lender to get everything done, but not for XXXX XXXX. Here it is 19 days after the initial XXXX and are sitting outside of our new home with XXXX trucks unable to get moved in because XXXX can not get his act together. He blames everyone else for the problems and will not take responsibility for doing such an awful job and botching this whole process over and over again! When he sent the closing documents to the closing attorney, the numbers did not match and information was incorrect. I mean, seriously!! You use a computer to type the info in and still can not get it right?!? What makes things even worse is that the auditors who review the loan at Prime Lending did not catch any of the mistakes and approved it! I guess no XXXX there is competent! We have had to pay for an extra day of rental for the trucks and had to stay at a friends house last night. I have bought a house before and this is the worst experience I have ever had. My realtors even said that this is a horror story for the books! Buyers, if you are serious about a home purchase, do not use XXXX XXXX or prime lending because you will never get in your house. Sellers, if you see that the purchaser is using Prime Lending for their mortgage, tell them to use another company or do not accept the contract. This whole process of selling our home has been a nightmare. XXXX XXXX and Prime Lending need to realize that their actions have consequences. This has affected my spouse, our realtors, the purchaser of our old home, the seller our new home, my wallet ( because of unnecessary expenses ), my job, and me.

Complaint:
I have found a XXXX Hard Inquiry on both my XXXX reports from XXXX XXXX 2015. After research I found the originator of these inquiries from PayPal in which I did not apply. XXXX causing damage to my credit reports and score. With all the investigations and ongoing complaints regarding PayPal and it 's credit methods and problems I most certainly would not involve myself with PayPal credit. I am not sure if this was a mistake or fraudulent activity. But I have noticed other forums or internet sites stating around the same time or even earlier in XXXX similar occurrences. They state the industry standard for even handling a dispute of this nature is 60 days in which I myself rarely have had to dispute any discrepancies but found most companies to handle or correct the situation promptly. Generally resolving issues within just weeks. I also feel this practice of PayPal with their odd processes and systems in which PayPal themselves have recently been held accountable for should have a better system in place to handle and correct the many situations or discrepancies many have been having with PayPal.

I was a victim of Flagstar Bank 's default servicing practices that were identified in your 2014 Consent Decree. I was forced into bankruptcy due to Flagstar. Upon dismissal if bankruptcy, I was to obtain modification from Flagstar, but at the same time the mortgage servicer was changed from Flagstar to XXXX XXXX and I had tremendous problems with XXXX and Flagstar obtaining information related to the terms and conditions of my modification.

State: SC
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: FHA mortgage
Issue: Settlement process and costs

Complaint:
The night before closing, our lender Prime Lending called to say there was a problem with our loan. The long and short of it is we were told for nearly 4 months, including a Uniform Residential Loan Application and an estimated cash to closing work sheet, that Prime Lending would match a {$3000.00} credit the preferred lender for our builder was offering. When we locked in our rate, the credit as well as our earnest money was not showing. I was assured in an email that the earnest money and credit were there " Your credits were removed, but you will definitely get credit for your {$5000.00} Earnest Money deposit. The {$3000.00} Lender credit will be negotiable depending on the rates. Right now, the markets are very volatile so we are seeing a lot of movements and sometimes not in a positive direction unfortunately. Again, we will continue to monitor the rates for you, but we will most likely iron down the fees within the next few weeks before your closing. " There was never any negotiating mentioned before this. The night before closing we were told that in order to honor that credit the loan would have to go through their corporate and legal departments which could delay closing for days. We did not have days to delay we had to be out of our rental and could not afford to pay for 2 moves plus storage. They were able to match {$1900.00} of the {$3000.00}, but we had to pay the difference.

Complaint:
My wife and I mortgaged a home in XXXX or XXXX 2015 with PrimeLending A PlainsCapital Company. When we signed the mortgage we understood that " ALL '' escrowitems would be paid for in our house payments. On XXXX/XXXX/15 I received a letter from Prime stating that I owed an additional {$2000.00}!!!! I called Prime ( XXXX ) and spoke with XXXX XXXX. XXXX told me that Plains did not make the payment high enough to cover all escrow items. 
This is preposterous, Prime was negligent in not reviewing my account in a timely manner! 
XXXX told me that at least XXXX item in escrow account was unknown to Prime until review. 
I believe that Prime needs to be punished for what they did and prevented from doing so again in the future.

Issue: Incorrect information on credit report
Sub-issue: Account status

Complaint:
We settled a dispute with a local hospital on XXXX XXXX, 2013. 
By reaching the settlement, we agreed to withdraw our legal complaints against the hospital, and the hospital agreed to accept an amount smaller than originally billed. 
It was stated in the settlement letter that by offering and accepting the settlement, both parties agree to release each other of any and all claims related to this account. 
The issue is, with this settlement, we have withdrawn our claims against the hospital, yet, they still have a negative statement on our credit report? Why? 
If the law allows them to continue to post this adverse statement on our credit report, even with this settlement, then at least, they can include a more clear statement in the Status section, such as, " Account settled on XXXX XXXX, 2013. Both parties agree to release each other from all claims relating to this account ''. 
This statement is more representative of the true status of this account, instead of the current description in our credit report, which carries the connotation that somehow, we still owe them money.

I have another complaint filed with another collection agency for the same original creditor ( XXXX ). I would like to get a copy of the original bill from the creditor so that I can move further with disputing the debt. Attached is the letter ( with attachment ) I sent to the collection agency.
