Company: HSBC NORTH AMERICA HOLDINGS INC.
State: TX
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card
Issue: Taking/threatening an illegal action
Sub-issue: Threatened arrest/jail if do not pay

Complaint:
A debt collector contacted my elderly mother, who has a XXXX, at her telephone number. She was told that there was a warrant for my arrest and that I was due to being arrested any minute, if I did not contact them. She was told that she had XXXX minutes to contact me and have them contact them so that I could be arrested wherever I was located at. She contacted me at work and I then contacted the company. Meanwhile, my brother had to take my mother to the doctor due to her XXXX. 

When I contacted the company, a representative told me that I needed to make payment immediately and he would then terminate my warrant of arrest. I paid them with whatever I could and am now making hospital payments for my mother. 

I believe this was very unethical on the companies behalf and should be disciplined for verbal abuse and domination over something that does not originally belong to them.

Complaint:
A representative called me from XXXX XXXX stating that I owed a debt from Citi Bank and that they were going to sue me if I did not pay them {$16000.00}. I did not know about this debt, so the representative said he would transfer me to the fraud department.

The man that answered said the debt was from 2005 ( over 10 years old ) and said " You must have been transferred here because you do not want to pay ''. I said if this debt is from 2005, it is over 10 years old and is a time barred debt ( Cal. Civ. Proc. Code 312 et seq. ) so he can not report it, nor can he sue me for it. He said he was from a legal firm and would see me in court and hung up.

Company: Diverse Funding Associates LLC
State: VA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint:
I got a loan for a XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX for a little over {$9000.00} and was told I could return it within 30 days. I did return it within 30 days and they said everything was fine. Next thing you know it shows up on my credit report as a late payment. I never made one single payment, yet the history shows I paid for 1 year 3 months, then missed a month, then paid two months and then was 120 days past due 5 months later ( then charged off ). This is all entirely bogus, not a single payment was ever made and it was returned within 30 days as stated earlier. 

Following this they sold the debt to DNF associates as a collection, which as I've been told still reports after 7 years... so this bogus situation is really hurting me. It will continue to affect me until something is done to remove not only the falsehood of the entire XXXX XXXX listing in my credit report, but also the collection account from DNF associates. 

( By the way, the DNF balance was around {$270.00}, which wouldn't even make since balance wise with the payments they claimed I made ) I have tried numerous times to dispute this with XXXX XXXX, DNF associates and all 3 credit bureaus. Please help!

Complaint:
I opened an account at Home Depot which was administered by Citibank. In the interim, I became victem of fraud and fell behind on payments and could not pay the account. Sometime in XXXX, 2010, I was contacted by a representative from Citibank offering to settle the account for {$430.00}. The payments were to be made once a month on the XXXX of each month. I made three payments ( {$140.00}, {$140.00}, {$140.00} ) as per their instructions and agreement and the account would be settled. These were sent to Citibank directly via XXXX. Instead of Citibank settling the account they sold it to another collection agency. I contacted Citibank and they said they could not do anything for me. To this day, my credit is ruined and the collection agency will not take it out of the credit bureau. I contacted the new collection agency and they refuse to take it out of the credit bureau without paying them money, even though I sent all the information and explained everything to them.
