Complaint:
On XX/XX/2018, Midland Funding added a derogatory remark on my credit report per XXXX XXXX. Upon further research, this account was transferred/sold, and I am no longer responsible for the account. Debtor 's creditor did not verify this collection. Also, there was NO written form of communication, contract, or signature of this accused debt at all. A bill without a signature does not validate the debt and anybody can send a bill and say it is mine. According to the FCRA, Midland Funding has violated my rights as a consumer, and I am requesting legal action to remove the account immediately.

Company: ARVEST BANK GROUP, INC.
State: TN
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
Arvest Mortgage Services " merged '' with Arvest Bank several months ago. Since then I have been locked out of my online account and have attempted to gain access back my online account with no success. 

Arvest has had me email my state drivers license to verify my identity ( which I emailed on XX/XX/XXXX ) ; however, I get no response back. 

When you call Arvest 's customer service number they have a recording advising that they are still having issues with migrating the system and there is a lengthy hold time to reach a customer service representative. 

They give an option to pay in a branch office ; however, there the closest one is over an hour away. So I am stuck waiting on the phone and manually paying my monthly mortgage through an operator. 

No one knows what to do and no one knows when this issue will be fixed. It places me in a situation where it is difficult to pay my mortgage through traditional means.
