Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: TX
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
This inquiry IS NOT an admission to this debt. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Experian regarding a debt that was recently reported on my credit. My credit report states the collection agency is XXXX XXXX, collecting on a debt originally from XXXX XXXX XXXX. It states the collection was opened on XX/XX/XXXX. I asked for the collection agency to provide proof of this debt including the original date of last delinquency to determine if this debt is time-barred ( meaning the statute of limitations window is closed ), proof of any signatures authorizing the opening of this account, and proof that I was notified in writing from this collection agency that they were attempting to collect on this debt and that they were reporting it on my credit. 

On XX/XX/XXXX ( one day later ), I received a message from Experian stating that the company ( XXXX XXXX XXXX has certified that the information is accurate. My official statement is that this debt and the information regarding it IS NOT accurate or correct. 

The FDCPA ( Fair Debt Collections Practices Act ) requires a collector to send you a written notice containing the name of the original creditor, the amount you owe, a statement saying you have 30 days to dispute the debt and information on how to dispute the debt collection. Not only did this collection agency not provide any proof of the debt like I requested, but they also did not send me any notices regarding the collection of this debt as mentioned above. The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) protects consumers from debt collectors who engage in this unlawful behavior.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requires that credit reporting agencies are to only report debts that are correct and accurate. Currently, Experian is reporting this debt that falls under unlawful behavior and tactics by the collection agency.

Complaint:
SPS Servicing currently services my mortgage. I have lived here for 15 years. On XXXX XXXX, 2016 I became a victim of identity theft. Taxes were filed using my ssn. Fraud report filed. All XXXX credit bureaus put a freeze on my credit. I contacted SPS immediately as I did any/all accounts I pay. I did not want a loan modification. Just wanted to communicate why I fell behind. They refuse to work with me on the mere {$4000.00} I am behind. No option to pay in 1-3 months along with my current mortgage which is very affordable ( {$810.00} ) They have more than enough documentation as to why and how I fell behind. I am victimized twice! My identity was stolen. Bank accounts hacked, had to close them. Sons college loans I had to cancel. It 's rather simple, and they refuse to give me either a 1-3 month agreement to pay the arrearages or a specific date that I had to pay by. This company does not only practice in bad faith, but they lose everything, do n't note any comments in computer, and have discriminated against me. I intend on contacting the list of departments the FTC gave me today as well as the Attorney General office. I am done being the victim, communicating, sending in documents repeatedly pertaining to my identity theft only to have the lost. My salary ( which I have all my XXXX forms clearly indicate that I can easily maintain $ XXXX/month. SPS is playing games, thankfully I caught on very quickly. I will also be starting a web page for other consumers being lied to, not offered modifications, not offered payment plans, being discriminated against ... .the list goes on.

Complaint:
To whom it my concern : My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX, I have Loan with Select Portfolio Servicing, Loan # XXXX and I have a complain the way SPS is handling my situation and the way how they have been treating me. 2 years ago I was in a crisis I went for a long divorce process and my employer reduce my working hours due to slow economy in that time I was also fighting my child visitations rights, I had to paid a lot of money to attorney and to the court. I started to get behind with my mortgage payment and I asked Select Portfolio Servicing for help asking for a Loan Modification program or any other relief available. It is very hard to deal with Select Portfolio because they are always sending me to different departments with the manager of the manager of the manager etc. they request the same information many times, I have been sending this information by Fax many times once they have the information that they requested from me, they asked me again to faxed and a week later the call me to request another information that it was send on the package. I have been doing this over and over and over for the past XXXX years. I have sent all the paper they requested and after I sent all the information they require something else like another paper, another document that has been already sent or a new document. There is no help from Select Portfolio, I am frustrated and stress and I feel Select Portfolio is not taking my situation seriously and also feel they are laughing in my face. I believe this actual Government Administration gave relief money to the banks and to Select Portfolio to help people like me in this Crisis. I am very stress every day because I do not want to lose my home my kids live there. I am XXXX Citizen and I 'm wondering if Select Portfolio does n't want to help me because I am XXXX XXXX I feel discriminated by Select Portfolio Servicing. 

XXXX published on XXXX/XXXX/2015 " Select Portfolio Servicing former employees : We were told to lie '' the article is based on employees of Select Portfolio routinely denied qualified borrowers a chance to modify their loans to more affordable terms and paid cash bonuses to bank staffers for pushing homeowners into foreclosure. 

I think somebody is expecting a bonus if the push me into foreclosure. This is not fair for me and my familyThank youSincerelyXXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
Midland Credit Management contacted us about monies supposedly owed to other creditors. We indicated, at the time of the initial call, that some of the monies were indeed owed, but not all. Midland failed to provide proof of what they were attempting to collect. We offered a settlement offer, based on what we felt we owed, to clear it up, but they refused to be reasonable. Not only did they refuse our attempts to settle, but they continued calling us even after we told them to stop. Calls came in before XXXX our local time, and after XXXX. They just wouldn't stop. We've even took several of their illegal phone calls just to try and settle the account. They wouldn't budge, and just continue to call. This is harassment. They've now filed a lawsuit, and continue to call, even though we've told them to stop.

Issue: Settlement process and costs

Complaint:
I have a loan with BB & T for a piece of property we bought in North Carolina. We 've had the loan for a number of years and were in the process of doing a loan modification with BB & T since the loan was coming to term. During that modification period, I was told that I would not have to make a mortgage payment because the interest would be pulled into my settlement costs. Shortly thereafter, I started receiving foreclosure letters from an attorney on behalf of BB & T saying the loan was delinquent and my account stated being assessed for a lot of different foreclosure fees. When I brought this to the attention of XXXX XXXX, Vice President for the XXXX Branch who was conducting my modification, she told me that those would be removed and it was just that the mortgage department and foreclosure departments were miscommunicating. This went on for some time and BB & T continued to add fees to my loan. I was told all along that these would be removed, but XXXX XXXX continued to give me excuses about why they were n't being removed. All in all, my account has been assessed with at least {$1400.00} in foreclosure fees because BB & T 's XXXX departments were not communicating that this loan was in a modification. Looking for help to get this corrected and have the erroneous fees removed, since I have been completely ignored in my direct requests to remedy the situation.

Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: FHA mortgage
Issue: Application, originator, mortgage broker

Complaint:
I contacted Quicken Loans on Friday XXXX/XXXX/16 and spoke with XXXX to discuss refinancing my FHA mortgage. I informed XXXX of my estimated credit score, how much the original loan was for, and how much the remaining balance was, as I wanted his honest opinion on whether or not he could help BEFORE he pulled my credit. I told him that other lenders have told me that attempting to refinance after only 6 months would not be possible. XXXX immediately informed me that Quicken loans had very aggressive products and could do things a traditional lender could n't do. He stated that he felt sure he could save me hundreds of dollars on my monthly payment and that my current lender would most likely not want to refinance my loan as they were earning money from the interest. I asked XXXX if he felt that Quicken loans could save me a substantial amount of money every month to which he replied " absolutely. '' Feeling encouraged, I gave him my social security number and authorized a credit pull. He told me he would " run the numbers '' and get back to me. I spoke with XXXX again on Monday XXXX/XXXX/16 but his tone was considerably different. He informed me that my debt to income ratio was too high and that it would be difficult to do anything for me. He ultimately stated he could refinance my loan saving me a whopping {$40.00} per month but I would have to front almost {$3000.00} in closing costs ( at that rate, it would take my 6 years just to break even again from the out of pocket costs ). I asked him " is this the type of aggressive products Quicken Loans offers? This is XXXX! '' I contacted a supervisor on XXXX/XXXX/16 to discuss and spoke with XXXX XXXX. I told her about the situation and asked her to remove the credit pull from my history as I felt XXXX performed a traditional bait and switch and falsely advertised what Quicken Loans could do for me. She stated she would look in to it. XXXX then called me back on XXXX/XXXX/16 and informed me that there was nothing she could do.
