Complaint:
Paypal Credit Card Mastercard, It's been over a month trying to get a replacement card. I called them 3 times and spent over an hour each time trying to get my card sent to my home, still no card. 

They have the absolute worst customer experience, I literally had a rep tell me to try and go to the XXXX XXXX XXXX to try and get my card that was being sent back to Paypal since they put an incorrect address, I legit had to try that option but I couldn't. They made the mistake of putting the wrong address, then I opted for the card to be mailed and still no card.

There customer service is atrocious, they keep you on hold forever and send you to several departments.

Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: FL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: FHA mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
My mortgage loan with XXXX was transferred on XX/XX/22 to Shellpoint ( New Rez ) with only XXXX weeks notice. I am currently receiving assistance with 18 months of forward payments from the XXXX program which they are aware of. Furthermore, I do believe this is the reason behind being transferred to their affiliate company. However, I did reach out to XXXX and advised them of the transfer and provided them the letter received. My loan # XXXX remained the same. My payments are supposed to be trans to Shellpoint for up to 60 days received to XXXX. The payment from XXXX for XX/XX/22 has yet to be sent to Shellpoint causing me to fall delinquent. I am very concerned as this is ultimately in my opinion the reason they transferred the mortgage., to cause more issues. I have heard Shellpoint is their affiliate company who handles delinquent mortgages. XXXX payment was sent out on XX/XX/22 and has yet to be posted or trans from XXXX and XXXX payment will be sent out on XX/XX/22. No explanation from Shellpoint as to why or where. No information pertaining to XXXX  assistance was related to Shellpoint.

Complaint:
I tried to log into my comenity bank account on XX/XX/27 to make a payment and kept on getting the same error message : were sorry. A technical glitch has occurred and your request can not be completed. Please try again. 

I tried to call the number on my card to make a payment over the phone and after waiting to get to customer service, the automated voice said their offices are currently closed and it hung up on me. 

I went to their social media pages and found out theyve been doing maintenance on their website since LAST WEEK and no one has been able to make a payment or access their account information. This is illegal. 

They are not responding accordingly to customer complaints. Additionally, they wont say whether theyd waive the late fee or what will happen when all of our late payments get recorded on our credit scores. Very dishonest and unbelievably sketchy.

Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
Despite multiple attempts, I have been unable to resolve the issue of fraudulent inquiries appearing on my consumer report. These inquiries are not associated with me in any way, and I bear no responsibility for them. Their presence has caused significant mental and financial distress. As a victim of identity theft, I have no alternative but to consider legal action if this matter is not appropriately addressed. These inaccurate and fraudulent items on my consumer report have hindered my ability to purchase my dream house and provide for my family 's needs. The impact on my financial well-being has been substantial. For your reference, I have attached a copy of the letter I previously sent to the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), which outlines this issue and seeks resolution.
