We asked if there would be any problems if we did not mak e a  XX/XX/2017  paym ent, as full pay-off would be made   72 hours later.
We were assured it w  as ok and there would be no problems.   But  XXXX  created a major problem for us, by reporting a " late '' payment o n  XX/XX/2017 , when they assured us they would.    As the full amount of the loan, not just a monthly payment was made 3 days later and  XXXX  knew it was coming, from to notification s ; one from our ph one call and the second from the  XXXX   XXXX  notification of pa y-off seven da ys earlier, it was unfair of     XXXX   XXXX   too harm our credit with a late report.

Company: Statebridge Company
State: FL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from Statebridge Company ( Lender ) requesting proof of property insurance for my home located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Florida XXXX - Loan Number XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent proof of insurance for said property, via fax, to the fax number provided by the lender ( XXXX ) Fax receipt shows successful transmission of 3 pages at XXXX and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX.My home is and has always been insured under a group policy for the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX . XXXX through Insurance provider XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Policy Number : XXXX. 

Statebridge Company sent me my Mortgage Statement ( payment request ) for XX/XX/XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, one day before the due date. The current mortgage statement shows an increase in monthly payment amount by 33 %. The statement shows an assessment for Forced Placed Insurance when there has never been a necessity, AT ANY TIME, for such insurance. Statebridge has also deposited my XX/XX/XXXX payment but has not credited said payment toward my account, claiming the payment is underfunded. This has caused Statebridge to impose late fees on my account.

I have researched this behavior by Statebridge Company and have found numerous complaints for such. This can not be considered a " error '' as the company 's history clearly indicates this to be a deliberate act of fraud and extortion.

I have, apparently, been assessed for property insurance that was and has been unnecessary. It appears this " Forced Placed Insurance '' scam is still alive and well within Statebridge Company 's practices.

I have copies of Insurance coverage ( past and present ) and fax receipts to prove my case. 

I look forward to the assistance of the CFPB in stopping this abuse. 


Very Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Loan
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
I have a loan with Wells Fargo Dealer Services XX/XX/XXXX and I was paying roughly XXXX every month for the loan they raised the payments to XXXX a few months later. I got my hours at work cut by half and had trouble making payments to my other bills shortly thereafter. I kept the loan with them in great standing making my payments on time given the circumstance. I had family hardships with a family member being injured and not being able to work since XX/XX/XXXX my monthly expenses grew even more so I started falling behind on the loan. I was able to get back on track with the payments by setting up a payment plan but as a result of making partial payments I was deemed late and it showed on my credit report. I tried to see if they could help me out with some goodwill on removing those off my report but had no success. I'm currently trying to improve my credit and I'm hoping this could help clear up some of those marks against me to get a better job in the future.

Company: BB&T CORPORATION
State: FL
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
I dispute this charge because I do not recognize this debt and I do not owe any money to this creditor. I monitor my report monthly and I have become a responsible consumer and this is an unfamiliar debt to me. If it were indeed valid it would have been paid. Moreover, this debt appears to be past the Statute of Limitations.

Because I am disputing this debt, you should not report it to the credit reporting agencies. If you have already reported it, please notify the credit reporting agencies that the debt is disputed and/or delete the trade line from my credit report. Reporting information that you know to be inaccurate, or failing to report information correctly, violates the FDPCA and their Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Complaint:
The monthly payment, terms, credit limit, past due, and date of the last payment is missing in this report. Balance should not be reported under a collection/chargeoff account! Also, the date of the last activity on each bureau was reported differently on this account. All dates should be reported the same! I do not remember owning this particular account. I've asked the agency to provide signed paperwork that proves that I really own the questionable account but they have not complied as of the moment.

Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX - Purchased a XXXX XXXX XXXX Autograph Authentic Star # XXXX Card from merchant for {$17000.00} using a XXXX credit card via XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX - Card was received and I had suspicions that the item was fake. I attempted to contact the merchant many times and he was non-responsive via email, phone, XXXX and XXXX XX/XX/XXXX - Started a dispute with XXXX. I called PayPal as well and they said I had to work through my dispute with XXXX. Paypal flat ourt refused to assist with any buyer protection and there was no option on there website to do so. XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX - Spoke to over a dozen XXXX reps, spent over 6 hours on the phone, made 30+ phone calls and uploaded 20 + documents. XXXX has provided conflicting advice many times, including whether I should return the card or not. Ultimately, they told me not to return the card and I still have the fake item in my possession. They told me to get an independent authenticator to verify the item was fake and send it with my dispute. I paid over {$100.00} to get this done in XX/XX/XXXX and the authenticator confirmed 100 % the item was fake. I did every single thing that XXXX told me to do and was denied at every turn. XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a Police Report with the XXXX, Florida Police Department. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX from XXXX called for the third time to again tell me my dispute was declined. They misstated that the item was purchased on XXXX. This was a direct purchase from a merchant, not purchased on XXXX. After this entire XXXX month experience, I can only conclude XXXX is the most fraudulent, dishonest and incompetent credit card provided in the United States. PayPal provided no help at all and denied me every single time I called. PayPal wouldn't even let me file a complaint.

I am in the process of trying to obtain a mortgage and reviewed my credit report for inaccuracies.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: FL
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers
Sub-issue: Didn't receive advertised or promotional terms

Complaint:
Late last year I opened a credit account with Bank of America, due to the terms and rewards advertising I decided to apply and was approved. Then about 4 or 5 months later they closed the account without explanation and told me they would not reopen it. I then asked if that would affect my rate to which they responded that it would not so I kept making my minimum payments since I figured at zero percent I was better to do it that way. Suddenly my minimum payment goes up about 3 or 4 months ago. I told them what the problem was and they told me I qualified for no such thing ( zero interest ) and in fact I had been always paying interest, and now my promotion was over and my interest was to be 28.99 % to which so far they have changed several times, I think the last one they gave me was 20 or 21 %. First they gave me a rate that was low or so I though and then they close the account without me being able to accumulate more rewards or take advantage of the rate for the full terms. These people should not get away with this, without someone doing something about it. Thank you!
