On or around  XXXX    XXXX  , a purchase was made on my  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  account for approximately {$110.00}. The item was charged to my credit card, but the charge didnt go through according to  XXXX , and the item was subsequently charged to my  XXXX  credit account.   The item was delivered after a delay of several weeks later. The i tem   ( Inspiron 3050 - a microcomputer ) was received at my home address ( redacted ). It did  not include an invoice ( an invoice was obtained later after several requests to  XXXX   ). I  was not sent a statement by mail or email. I was never contacted by phone. I never received a bill for this item from  XXXX  or  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX . I was never contacted that the account was in arrears in any way. No request for payment was ever made at that time ( or since ).   At the end of   XXXX  , when applying for a mortgage, I was shocked to see that I had a negative credit report from  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  for this item. This was the only negative report in my credit history. The negative credit report has resulted in significant increase in the mortgage loan rate that I was offered, which translates to future additional cost in the thousands of dollars.   Subsequent inquiries indicate that : - the account was sent to collections, without ever contacting me - although I was never contacted by  XXXX  with a statement or payment request, the account was reported as in default to the credit reporting agencies - checking the account online, shows that shipping address and billing address are correct ; although no correspondence was sent to this address regarding the apparent default, I continue to receive promotional correspondence from  XXXX  at this address.   - additional late charges and interest have been added to the account nearly tripling the amount due in unde r one year ( >   {$300.00} by the end of   XXXX   )!   - the  XXXX  representative I spoke with on the phone indicated that this handling of the account was not in keeping with  XXXX  policy and that the account should never have been sent to collections.     I feel that the handling of this case by  XXXX  is not a usual or expected business practice for the reasons indicated above. I believe that the proximate cause of damages is directly the result of the mishandling of this case by  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX .     A cheque has been sent to  XXXX ,  XXXX  to cover the cost of the initial purchase.
In regards to the two XXXX collections on my credit report, I have called several times with hopes in settling the debts as I am in the process of purchasing a new home. Each time I have called, even in speaking with a supervisor, I have been told that the debts are beyond the statue of limitations and they can not collect any monies on the accounts. If the debts are beyond the statue of limitations and they are refusing to collect any monies from me, then why are they reporting these debts to my credit report. I need these removed ASAP. XXXX : {$5300.00} - {$2500.00} XXXX : {$7800.00} - {$460.00}
I became XXXX and my income severely dropped however I should have had mortgage insurance that was supposed to cover the Cost if I died or became XXXX. Now Ocwen says that I do n't have that.
I have sent XXXX debt validation letters to this collection agency. They have ignored all of my requests for validation. I do not owe this debt and they continue to pursue me for it.
In 2017 I contacted Equifax and informed them that they are reporting erroneous information regarding a XXXX XXXX account on my credit report. They are reporting an incorrect balance amount. I requested an investigation and they refuse to remove the incorrect information.
My credit report shows that I have or had a mortgage with Homeward Residential f/k/a American Home Mortgage Servicing, in the amount of XXXX and opened in XXXX 2006. I request that Homeward Residential f/k/a American Home Mortgage Servicing respond to the Debt Validation Letter and the QWR letter attached to this compalint. I have never signed a mortgage with Homeward Residential f/k/a American Home Mortgage Servicing. I am attaching a copy of my mortgage and note for reference. 

This goes back to my original theories that no one knows who exactly owns my mortgage and note and that all documents used, i.e., Assignment of Mortgage, etc. are all fraudulent. 
I want this investigated and I want answers.
Equifax was hacked and my personal information was compromised. 

I received no notice from Equifax, and instead had to do my own research, weeks if not months after my information was made vulnerable. Equifax offered only a " free '' service to monitor my credit, and rather than alert me in any way, Equifax left it up to me to find recourse elsewhere on the web. Had I not investigated on my own, I 'd have never known that my information was made public.
I was unaware of the debt and I offered settlement as they never notified me of my right to dispute the debt in writing. When I became aware that I could dispute the debt, in which I was just offering settlement to make this go away as the person  at Capstone Credit Services,   XXXX   XXXX  was very degrading, I did just that. I sent them a request to dispute the debt via email on  XXXX   XXXX ,  2017 , and followed up with them as of  XXXX   XXXX ,    2017  to advise them they had failed to send validation to the debt however they continue to report this to my credit report. They are in essence violating the law in the fact that they are reporting an unvalidated/unverified account. I have contacted their office as recent as today and spoke with a  XXXX   XXXX  who advised me to leave her alone and find someone else to both er. ( How unprofessional! )
XXXX XXXX  contacted my work number on Wednesday, XX/XX/2018. As I was off, they left a voicemail stating that if I did not respond immediately, they would be starting a verification of employment. I got the voicemail today ( XX/XX/2018 ), and called back immediately and left a message advising that I would like to make a payment arrangement of low monthly payments, as I was trying to get involved with a debt consolidation program. I received a return call from a Ms. XXXX or XXXX, but I had missed the call. I called back, and offered the same information I had left in my message. This rep rudely stated that she had already started the verification of employment process, because I did not call back yesterday. I told her I was not at work, and therefore would not have been able to call back, as I did not get the message until today. She told me they were going to start garnishing my wages, unless I paid the {$1300.00} I owed XXXX right away, or paid over {$170.00} bi-weekly. When I said I couldn't do either of those things, and again offered {$100.00} per month, she said she was putting me as " refuse to pay '', and would be garnishing my wages. When I cited FDCPA, she stated that they are not held to the FDCPA laws. I tried to explain that I was trying to find a debt consolidation program, and she said it wouldn't stop the garnishment. Her bullying and scare tactics caused me to have an XXXX XXXX, and had me in tears, because I can not afford to have money taken out of my paycheck.
The Letter below was sent to both XXXX XXXX XXXX and Citizens Bank in an attempt to secure funds in the amount of {$5000.00} back, which was provided to the city of XXXX as part of a bidding process for a city contract. A fellow towing company has already received their funds back even though we had the same situation. We can't understand why these institutions can't get us the same reconciliation. 

XX/XX/XXXX XXXX  XXXX, Chairman of the Board Chief Executive Officer XXXX XXXX, President, Preferred and Small Business Banking XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, New York XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX : I write to resolve a financial matter, which may be small to you all in the value of the problem but, as a small business a very big one for us. 

On XX/XX/XXXX the owner and operator of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX withdrew {$5000.00} from his XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX, XXXX XXXX account and had it issued as a XXXX XXXX Treasurers Check # XXXX for Tax ID # XXXX. This Treasurers Check was then turned over to the City of XXXX as part of the bidding process for a city towing contract. 

For some unknown reason the city of XXXX held this check in their safe for the period of XX/XX/XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX when they returned it to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX We have checked with the states of New York and Massachusetts and to no avail both states have informed us that there are no funds being held as Found Property. Therefore, this leaves us to believe that these fund that were drawn on our account are still with XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX. 

We are hoping that we will not need to take any other actions other than asking you to address this matter as we have received no support at the level of those banking employees who are at the first level of your organization. 

Please find enclosed a copy of the Treasurers Check for your review and consideration. We would like our {$5000.00} back. 

Please feel free to contact me at XXXX or by call me direct at XXXX. 

Thank you for your assistance with this matter and I look forward to hearing from you. 

Respectfully, XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX.
On XX/XX/XXXXXXXX, I sent a certified letter with return receipt to XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX MN XXXX as listed on my credit reports, disputing the entry ( see attached documentation ). I specifically requested that they investigate the account entry and provide me any and all documentation that reflects this account entry is 100 percent accurate including the charge-off date as well as the amount reported as owed. XXXXt received my dispute ( see attached return receipt ) on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I received a letter from XXXX datedXX/XX/XXXX whereby they assured me that the information reported was accurate, but that they would also be sending additional documentation. To date, I have not received any correspondence and it 's been well over 45 days. It is almost at the 60 day mark and they are yet to respond. It appears to me that XXXX has no supporting documentation to substantiate this entry as 100 % accurate and verifiable and therefore, it should be deleted from my credit reports.
XXXX, XXXX and TransUnion are reporting me owing a debt to XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. Neither one of these are accounts or debts I caused or authorized. During the time that they are stating the debt occurred, I was a victim of Identity Theft in which I filed a case with the FBI. At that time All three major credit bureaus were notified. This was several years ago but until this day I have been disputing these account and the credit bureaus are refusing to delete these items. Each time I dispute the items and ask them to provide me with information on their investigation from the creditor showing proof of the debt, they refuse to provide me any documentation. The same applies to the creditor. The Creditor have ignored me numerous times and refuse to reply me or provide me with any documents of evidence of these debts. The credit bureaus response is always the account was verified
I applied Chase XXXX credit card on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX website. At that moment, I saw the XXXX Ads that they 're offering 40,000 points after {$2000.00} purchase in 3 months ; {$50.00} statement credit after the 1st purchase ; 5000 points for adding authorized user. As a result, I clicked the ads and went through the application process. The card has been successfully approved and mailed to me. However, when I called Chase to verify my offer, I was told that my offer has been changed to be '2 Free nights ' instead of the original '40,000 points '. I sent secure msg via my chase online banking and escalated it to senior leaders. However, after 10 days back and forth, Chase insisted that my offer was 2 free nights but not 40k points. Here I attach my screenshot at the moment i applied the credit card. And even now, both XXXX and chase web still post the ads of 40k points. Chase is cheating customers by posting attractive ads but offering a different offer indeed!!!

DEAR CFPB I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A COMPLAINT AGAINST MY MORTGAGE LENDER OCWEN LOAN FINANCIAL. I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THIS COMPANY BECAUSE THEY ARE STATING THAT WE ARE BEHIND ON OUR MORTGAGE PAYMENT OF {$1300.00}. I HAVE BEEN PAYING MY PAYMENTS SINCE IT WAS MODIFIED IN XXXX XXXX. WE ARE GETTING THESE PHONE CALLS FROM OCWEN STATING THAT WE HAVE TO PAY OUR XXXX XXXX PAYMENT, WE HAVE BEEN MAKING ALL PAYMENTS AND HAVE NEVER BEEN LATE. WE WERE INFORMED IN A LETTER AND BY PHONE THAT WE ARE NOT CURRENT. I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH AND ASKED FOR MY PAYMENT HISTORY BY MAIL AND FOUND THAT A PAYMENT OF {$1200.00} ON XXXX XXXX, XXXX WAS NOT APPLIED CORRECTLY TO MY ACCOUNT. I HAVE CALLED ON XXXX XXXX, XXXX AND THEY HAVE STATED THAT MY PAYMENT HAD BEEN CHANGED AND WAS HIGHER THEN WHAT WE BEEN PAYING. WE WERE NEVER INFORMED OF THE CHANGE, NOW BY NOT BEING INFORMED OF THE CHANGE, THEY HAVE HELD MY {$1200.00} IN A SUSPENSE ACCOUNT AND STATED THAT THEY NOT ONLY HELD MY PAYMENT IN A SUSPENSE ACCOUNT, BUT THEY APPLIED PART OF MY PAYMENT TO THE LATE FEES THAT THEY ARE CLAIMING WE OWE. FROM THEN ON MY MORTGAGE IS NOW BEHIND, AND I AM DISAGREEING WITH WHAT THEY HAVE DONE. I CALLED ON XXXX XXXX, XXXX AND HAD SPOKE TO THE RESEARCH DEPARTMENT AND THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO INVESTIGATE WHERE MY PAYMENT WAS APPLIED AND WILL LET ME KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. SO I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH OCWEN AND THEY STATED THAT MY ACCOUNT IS BEING LOOKED AT AND WILL BE RESOLVED WITHIN 15 DAYS. I HAVE CALLED AGAIN ON XXXX XXXX, XXXX AND SPOKE TO THE RESEARCH DEPARTMENT AND THEY HAVE STATED THEY HAVE CORRECTED THE ISSUE, BUT MY ACCOUNT IS STILL BEHIND. I AM DISPUTING THE WAY THAT THEY HAVE TAKEN BEEN APPLYING MY PAYMENTS TO MY ACCOUNT. I NEED ANSWERS TO MY DISPUTE, BECAUSE NOW THEY ARE MAKING ME FAIL ON MAKING MY PAYMENTS ON TIME I HAVE SUBSTANTIATION TO PROVIDE BY FAX OR MAIL.
XXXX  has been non-compliant with removing the unverified account GLOBAL LENDING SERVI which has been deleted by XXXX  and XXXX. XXXX   and XXXX  have both completed their research and determined that GLOBAL LENDING SERVI was not established by myself but XXXX  keeps verifying this accounts. Also, when I called the company they responded that XXXX did not send them all of the verifying evidence to confirm each account is unverified.
I have disputed the information through XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX is order for this information to be removed from my credit report. I have contacted a credit counseling agency and they will send letters to the credit bureaus to remove the information from my credit report. Basically someone has used my social security number to obtain student loans in my name. I was XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. I did not graduate from high school therefore I do not qualify for student loans and I have never attended a college or university.
Lowe 's CC issued through Synchrony Bank. Most of the other credit cards I have used with a promotional purchase will allocate any payment first towards the regular balance before applying any to the promotional balance. In this way, you prevent interest from accruing on your regular daily balance. Well, Synchrony applies any payment first to the promotional balance then to the regular balance. Because of this, interest is accrued even if you have made enough payments to cover purchases made during a billing statement. So whats the purpose of a promotional rate if you end up paying for it first? Multiple times I have argued this with the bank. In the end, they do end up crediting me the interest, but state I have to call them each time payment is made to tell them where to allocate the funds to. I feel this is an unethical trap to accrue fees and a deviation from the norm for other credit card companies.
There was a credit balance on my Capital One account, and I requested a credit balance refund on XXXX/XXXX/2015. I spoke with numerous supervisors, as I have had issues with Capital One before, and I was assured that I would receive a credit balance refund check. I was also told that the credit balance could be refunded to a recently used XXXX checking account. I made it clear that there should not be a payment adjustment made. After taking over XXXX weeks to process my request, Capital One has sent a supposed ACH credit to the originating bill pay service, which is nonexistent, and now I have had my funds warped into electronic nether-land all while being told that the request was treated in accordance with " Capital One policy ''. I am incensed to have XXXX checked my customer service answer ahead of time on how the payment would be issued, only to have Capital One take arbitrary action to resolve my issue that did indeed cause a domino effect of other issues. I intend to abstain from use of this Capital One account, but I am demanding that they honor their promise to issue me a check or to issue my a credit to my XXXX account. If the CFPB is unable to assist me with resolving this clear error, I will be forced to pursue other remedies. 

Thanks for your time, XXXX XXXX
I received a call today from a company claiming to be XXXX XXXX, XXXX, from telephone number XXXX. The person speaking said their name was " XXXX XXXX. '' They claimed to be trying to collect on a XXXX debt in default since 2012. This debt is one which I settled with XXXX XXXX approximately 6 months ago in an out of court settlement. I informed them the debt had been settled and they requested confirmation of this. The e-mail they gave me was : XXXX ( very suspicious ). 

I can find no record of this company, beyond complaints about it and suspect it is a scam.
I use XXXX XXXX to frequently help with paying off old debts and when I looked to get an update it showed that my auto loan through Santander consumer balance increased by XXXX to my loan between the month of XXXX and XXXX, I purchased my vehicle at the end of XXXX and my first payment was due XX/XX/XXXX and I called trying to see why XXXX dollars was added to my loan and they just kept telling me my current balance and kept saying I wasn't charged an additional XXXX dollars even though I made my payment on the XX/XX/XXXX and was not late and the balance reflects the dis charge an extra XXXX dollars is this legal.

There is an account from XXXX  XXXX that was removed from my XXXX and Experian credit file on XX/XX/XXXX due to identity theft. It was re-inserted back on my credit report as a collection which is a violation to the Fair Credit Reporting Act as of XX/XX/18. I am filing a complaint that this account has been reinserted on my credit report. I demand that this be removed permanently.
I have contacted Alpha Recovery Corp and disputed this debt for {$1200.00}. They sent a statement on XX/XX/17 from XXXX XXXX, whom I do not have an account with. I have requested documentation of a signed agreement, payments made, and anything that can be of use to law enforcement as we investigate fraud.
XXXX ( XXXX ) first missed payment XX/XX/XXXX. Target gets judgement XX/XX/XXXX. 7 years credit reporting should end XX/XX/XXXX. Trans Union says XXXX. Does a creditor get XXXX chances to report bad debt 7 years to the credit agencies? First with the first missed payment and second for a judgement for same debt., in my case 1 year later. Loophole : Creditor can report debt when first delinquent then wait till the last month of the 7 year period, obtain a judgement for same debt then get another 7 years of reporting for a total of 14 years of reporting to credit report agencies for XXXX debt. FDCA needs to be amended to reflect that the 7 years clock starts the first month of default, or no payment on the debt and that any subsequent judgement obtained by the creditor does not start a second 7 years debt reporting but fall under the 7 years that started the first month of default or non payment of the debt. The law needs to reflect that a judgement is just a part of the debt collection process and does not make an already reported bad debt as a new separate debt. By changing the law, creditors will have to obtain a judgement in a timely manner and close the loophole that allows them to wait as a strategy to report the debt for longer then 7 years. It will also prevent the creditor from having XXXX debt reporting clocks. The way the law is now creditor can report debt twice, the debt itself, and then the judgement giving XXXX, 7 years debt reporting clocks as if they were XXXX separate debts.
Alliance One is a contracted debt collector of the state and more precisely XXXX XXXX XXXX. They claim that I did not pay on the XXXX of XXXX, and I can actually prove this with the recorded phone calls and my bank. The unfortunate outcome of this is that I will have to pay XXXX dollars to keep my license, which I need in order to get to work to even pay any of this money. They have made false statements saying that I did not submit it until the XXXX in order to force the money out of me more quickly, when I have no way of being able to pay that amount. This is very predatory and should be looked into. They have basically lied to me and are being allowed to punish me legally for something that they had wrong. It is n't my fault the company made mistakes, and I will not be defrauded in order for them to make an extra bonus for collecting a debt that is wrongfully being presented. I will now not be able to pay any of the money to them. My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX and my address is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Wa XXXX. I am planning on filing a Complaint and Summons by myself for predatory lending practices under the Consumer Protection Act and ask for damages in the amount that I would make in a years wages. Please look into this.
I have XXXX student loans through Navient. I was on a income based repayment plan, then my payments more than doubled and its still not covering all of the interest. I went from paying {$130.00} to {$340.00} in a month, it happened automatically, and I 'm still not able to get my principal balance down.
This account is not my account Midland Funds refuse to validate information proving this is my account. They will not validate account and verify the account.
I have Macy 's American Express card that had fraud charges totaling about {$230.00} on XXXX/XXXX/2015. So called Macy 's to resolve this issue and they told me to fill out a form and send it to them and told me they will take care of it. After 4 months, nothing have been resolved and they finally admitted to having that they lost my fraud form so I had to resend it again. But the real problem is that this got into my credit report for no payments made. I have called more than 10 times but I am not sure what else can I do to fix this problem. 
Pls Help..
