Company: AMERICAN HONDA FINANCE CORP
State: IL
Product: Consumer Loan
Sub-product: Vehicle lease
Issue: Taking out the loan or lease

Complaint:
I guaranteed a company auto lease in XXXX with XXXX, the lease was for XXXX months and ended in XXXX XXXX. I made most payments on this lease because the company was not financially able to make them. In XXXX XXXX XXXX wrote me stating that a payment was due and I should remit it to them. I called XXXX stated that the lease has ended and that I no longer was associated with the firm, the response was that they extended the lease without informing me and that as long as the lease number did not change I was responsible. I stated that I did not authorize this extension and would not be responsible. 
Since that date the lease has been extended 3 times for a total of XXXX months without informing me, each time the company defaults they contact me and I repeat my original statement. XXXX has reported me as paying late to the credit reporting agencies damaging my credit rating. 
I have asked for copies of all signed documents and phone records relating to this lease and XXXX has refused to provide them. 
I do not believe that a 3rd party can obligate me without my knowledge or consent for a term now 50 % longer than my original commitment when XXXX was aware that this party was not credit worthy.

Company: CARRINGTON MORTGAGE SERVICES, LLC
State: IL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
The mortgage company did an escrow analysis in XXXX of 2015 on my mortgage and raised my escrow requirement. They did not notify us that they had changed the amount due for escrow in XXXX of 2015. We continued to send the original amount for the loan. the mortgage company would not process the payment because to them it did not meet the required amount. We discovered in XXXX 2015 that they were not covering the payments. We immediately contacted the company and they informed us that they had changed the escrow and the we were considered behind in our payments. We made up the differences in the account and thought we were good. They then sent an inspection on the house and charged us {$20.00} for that without notifying us that they did the inspection. We ended up paying them by check over the phone just to make sure the entire payment was caught up. It seems like they should not be raising the escrow anyway. We have owned the house for over 27 years and have not missed a payment. Now they have hurt my credit and caused us anxiety over their inability to communicate and their requirement for escrow above what is required for our home.

Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: FHA mortgage
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
I 've been trying to close on my property and have a willing buyer. Time is of the essence and I am also in bankruptcy so I need it to close. I have asked green tree to submit payoff information multiple times. I made a payment in this loan XXXX XXXX, 2015 and asked for a payoff for XXXX XXXX at that time. It 's the XXXX of XXXX and their attorney does not have it and I have not received it nor did my title company. I 've called multiple times. I 've emailed them. What else am I supposed to do? They act like time is not of the essence, yet they are the first to send threatening letters when they do n't get a payment. They have no clear way of ordering a payoff or knowing that the order is being processed. The end result if I do n't get this payoff by tomorrow is I 'm going to loose my buyer and the property will go into forclosure all because I 've been trying to contact them to get a payoff that they do n't seem to want to provide or are too incompetent to know what to do. How is it that I have spoken with XXXX different people at green tree and none can give me an answer about my payoff? Do n't they want the property to close? Is time not of the essence for them in this real estate transaction? this company is about the most incompetent financial institution I 've ever dealt with and certainly do not have customer service as a priority. You would think they would have payoff information at their finger tips.

Sub-issue: Problem during payment process

Complaint:
I have a XXXX XXXX Citi credit card and a Citi Miles Ahead Savings account. I tried to sign online to pay my credit card ( through the app and through a web browser ) and it asks/forces me to activate my savings debit card. I don't know where my savings debit card is. I've called Citi and they said the reason I can not login to my credit card account because I have to activate my savings debit card in order to gain access online to my credit card account ( pay the bill, etc. ). That is so wrong! Why can't I access my CREDIT card account when the issue is with my SAVINGS account. It's IMPOSSIBLE for me to access my credit card account online ( simply b/c I didn't activate my savings debit card ). I was forced to call Citi and get them to send me a new debit card ( b/c I don't know where my old one is ). I then have to activate the new savings debit card in order to access my credit card account online. I told the developer who told me what my problem was, and I told him that was a major issue. I doubt he ever raised the issue to management.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL

Product: Credit card or prepaid card

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Overcharged for something you did purchase with the card

Complaint:
I purchased {$5100.00} worth of furniture from Ashley Furniture in XXXX XXXX, Maryland in XX/XX/2022. I was given a 24 month, no interest deal if I applied for a Synchrony store card. I did and was approved for the deal. The furniture arrived in XXXX. My first credit card bill was due in XXXX. At that point I noticed an interest rate of XXXX XXXX!! I called Synchrony and they said they'd investigate. I called the XXXX store the same day. The XXXX people confirmed the deal and that it had been transmitted to Synchrony properly. I thought we were in the clear until two weeks later when I received a letter saying Synchrony would not honor the promotion. I called Synchrony again, very upset. A customer service rep named XXXX was very rude, and moreso dismissive. She told me there was nothing she could do and that the promotion would not be applied. I informed her that this was a clear bait and switch. She spoke with a manager who also said they would not be rectifying the situation before hanging up on me.

Complaint:
I had a US Bank Visa gift card that was obviously tampered when I removed it from otherwise pristine packaging because the gummy gel used to hold it in the packaging was clearly all wrong. It was n't activated properly, but even after getting help activating the card, the magnetic stripe had been demagnetized so I could not use it. I called US Bank Visa Card services to replace it about 2 weeks ago free of charge, and it has not been replaced, despite having faxed everything they asked for.

Company: Populus Financial Group, Inc. (F/K/A Ace Cash Express)
State: CA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Payday loan
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Indicated committed crime not paying

Complaint:
I received a call with a unknown number from Ace Cash Express to call them back that they are filing a claim against me. I called back and the representative accused me of fraud for not paying back the pay day loan. I explained to XXXX XXXX that Ace cash Express put me in a cycle of debt and I just could n't pay back anymore. He did n't care and threatened to file a law suit with XXXX county. I told him that I ca n't afford to pay them back because I only work few hours a week but I will try to borrow money and call them back. However I could not borrow any money to pay back. So the next day I received a voice mail supposedly from an officer to call them back or they will go to my employer. I live off pay check to pay check and it 's their fault for putting me in debt and now pretending to be a officer. They also called my sister and threatened to call my employer even though I do n't work in a office.

Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting your free annual credit report

Complaint:
I have attempted for the past 2 years ( XXXX present day in 2022 ) to obtain a copy of my XXXX credit report by either submitting ( 1 ) several formal written requests via XXXX, ( 2 ) several formal written requests directly to XXXX, and ( 3 ) even signing up for the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX all to no avail. Each and every time I attempt to obtain a copy of my credit report or otherwise attempt to access my credit report online, the XXXX website renders an error message that my report can not be obtained via the online request. Regarding my written request, XXXX has either remained wholly unresponsive or has otherwise sent me a letter stating that my report can not be provided, and this is despite the express fact that I have provided all necessary documentation to verify my identity. I have had only minimal access to my report through third party credit monitoring apps like XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, but they are not complete files. XXXX has even suspended my credit monitoring service altogether. I suspect that XXXX is engaging this pattern and practice of fraud and bad faith business practices because I have filed complaints against them before. Their conduct is unlawfully retaliatory. I have also not had access to manage my freeze that I added prior to the pandemic.

Issue: Unable to get credit report/credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting my free annual report

Complaint:
Contacted Transunion for a " free copy of my credit report. I ordered it and was charged {$17.00} for some kind of recurring service. I asked for no such service and when I called them I was told I had opted for a free 7 day trial ( which I did not ) and that they could n't refund it because they had already paid other services for some product related to this. 
Additionally the website is overly confusing and just getting a simple credit report - from ALL of these outfits - is unduly complicated.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: OH
Product: Credit card
Issue: APR or interest rate

Complaint:
There was a fee on my Amazon store account through Synchronicity Bank that should not have been there. They are promoting a 6 month interest free payment plan, however I purchased something outside of that promotion, and then made a payment, they did not apply the credit to the non-promotional balance, thus fees started to incur. I contacted them and I assume the funds have been properly reallocated so I will no longer incur fees while the promotional balance is paid off. However, I believe they are in violation of the law by not applying payments to higher interest purchases first. I just want to make this aware to CFPB so they can remedy any illegal actions by this bank and protect other consumers that might not be aware. Thank you.
