Product: Credit card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
A purchase of {$93.00} on XX/XX/2023 was made using XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  using Affirm platform. The transaction was canceled and refunded by XXXX ( the online merchant where the transaction was purchased ). We have reached out to both XXXX XXXX  and Affirm regarding the refund but neither companies are unaware where the refund is. Both companies are also unwilling to connect with each other to resolve the dispute/investigate where the refund is since both have been redirecting us to the other company to ask for the refund. Also, the term " payment chargeback '' has been used multiple times but the real concern is either companies keep referring us to the other company to collect the refund without further resolution and we keep going back and forth regarding this same issue for months. We need XXXX XXXX  AND/OR Affirm to look further and trace back the refund because both companies are saying the refund is not with them/their responsibility. So please, where is the refund?

Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
I've observed several deviations from mandatory reporting standards, which cast doubt on the accuracy and completeness of the data in my report. Consequently, I refute the allegations against me and challenge you to substantiate your authority to include this incomplete negative information in my credit report. 

In accordance with 15 U.S.C 1681e, consumer reporting agencies must employ reasonable procedures to ensure the utmost accuracy of information in consumer reports. Furthermore, 12 CFR Part 1022 ( Regulation V ) mandates furnishers to provide information about consumer accounts with integrity and accuracy. This includes conducting reasonable investigations into consumer disputes, as outlined in the Consumer Reporting Resource Guide ( CRRG ) and adhering to Metro 2 compliance standards. 

Deviation from these standards, as emphasized in the CRRG, jeopardizes the integrity of the data, potentially compromising the accuracy of federally regulated reports. Consequently, I am exercising my rights to contest these inaccuracies and non-compliant items. Ignoring my demand would indicate a disregard for my consumer rights. 

It is unjust for you to report unconfirmed and ethically questionable information that does not meet certified reporting standards. I challenge these claims and request evidence of proper reporting standards. Your violation of my rights is documented in this communication, citing concerns about incomplete and non-compliant reporting.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.

Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process
Sub-issue: Payment process

Complaint:
I have my mortgage through XXXX XXXX, who after years sent the loan to Chase Home Mortgage for the servicing, earlier this year. Ever since Chase has been servicing the loan they have been unable to apply my payments correctly, I send half my mortgage payment with each by-weekly pay cycle and Chase continuously applies my payments to the principal balance and not as a regular payment. This prevents my due date from advancing and causes me to have to take the additional action of emailing Chase each month and asking them to correct the payment posting. Not only is having to contact my servicer monthly something that should be unnecessary, but it also creates a situation where my loan will go into default should I ever be unable to contact Chase about the payment application. I reached out to Chase regarding this issue several times, the most recent being escalated to an escalations group, to no avail. XXXX XXXX  serviced my loan for years and I made payments in the same fashion without any issue, if Chase can not post my mortgage payments correctly, I would request that they send my mortgage back to XXXX XXXX  for the servicing.

Issue: Trouble during payment process
Sub-issue: Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue while managing or servicing your loan

Complaint:
I hope this letter finds you well. 

I am writing to you as a concerned citizen and constituent of Texas, seeking your assistance and intervention regarding a grave issue I have been facing with my mortgage company, M & T Bank. 
My husband and I are both Veterans of the XXXX XXXX. I recently discovered alarming discrepancies in my attempts to make appropriate payments to my mortgage company and am working exhaustively to rectify the situation. However, there are several issues and potentially unlawful actions by my mortgage company, which have led to significant financial losses for my family. 

The issues I have encountered include M & T Bank rejecting my payments and not returning them, giving my husband and me incorrect information as to where our money is and how to obtain it back, conflicting communications and timelines, and stating that they can only call either my husband or myself, once per day. These actions not only violate the terms of our agreement but have also placed an unjust financial burden on my family and put my home at risk. 

My husband and I have made copious attempts to address these issues directly with M & T Bank, but their response has been unsatisfactory and uncooperative. I believe that my mortgage company 's actions may be in violation of state and federal laws, and I am seeking your assistance in holding them accountable for their actions. 

I appreciate your attention to this matter, as our home and our XXXX children are at risk. Thank you and I hope you have a good day and God bless. 

XXXX XXXX
