Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Caliber Home Loans, Inc. (NY)

I've contacted Caliber loans over the past six months, in at least four phone calls to remove PMI. Each time, I was given conflicting information. Since I was unable to get an appraisal done, I ended up paying down the mortgage to under 78 % of the original value on XX/XX/XXXX. Since the inception of the loan, I've never made a late payment, usually paying several months in advance. On the day the payment was posted, I contacted Caliber to let them know that PMI should automatically be cancelled. Since then, my next payment still shows the PMI payment amount.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (TX)

Apparently, I made a purchase at Kohls Department store of {$15.00}. This took place months ago. On XXXX XXXX I received two phone calls requesting I call Kohls. At first, I assumed this was a scam until I received the second one. I checked my Kohls account to discover that there was a {$100.00} dollar on my account. I quickly called Kohls for more information. I was told that my account went to collections for nonpayment. I was shocked this was the first time I knew of this. I asked why I wasn't notified or billed? So, they say they did not have my updated address. I moved from XXXX XXXX XXXX  I was still stumped. They called me after my account went to collections but could not call me previously to this? or email me? They had my email address. I paid them what I owed. I thought that was the end to it. Just recently received my credit report. I went from XXXX to XXXX just like that due to Kohls. I can not express how upset I am. This is absurd. Shocked is what Iam that a company can ruin an individual 's credit for {$15.00}. I worked very hard for years to have that credit score. Never missed a payment, never was late on bills. I can show you bank records and payoffs. I am not wealthy and have worked my tail bone off for what I have. My credit score reflected my hard work. I will never set another foot in Kohls. Never. I will gladly return their credit card to them. 
I paid my automobile loan off my mortgage off. Why would I not pay off {$15.00}? How can I pay a bill if I am not properly notified? To this day I still have not received a piece of mail from Kohls stating that I paid the outstanding balance or a email. Obviously, there is something very wrong with this company internally.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CA)

I am the victim of a sophisticated fraud perpetrated by my ex wife XXXX XXXX against me over the life of our marriage. I have consulted with local authorities and with legal counsel, and I have been advised that my rights under the consumer protection statutes at both federal and state level are applicable here. However, after notifying XXXX XXXX XXXX of the fraud discovered, they allegedly conducted an investigation and decided to ignore my rights under the law that protect victims of Identity Theft. I understand that the circumstances are not your cookie cutter, cut and dry identity theft - however if you look at the totality of the situation- I never benefitted, authorized, or was aware of any of these accounts opened, maintained, and used in my name. My signature was forged, in every single instance that the cards were used. Payments were made from an account not under my name. The forgery and deceit is of the highest level, and I have stated numerous times that I am willing to cooperate with and assist with any prosecution for forgery, fraud, and ID theft charges that should be levied on XXXX. 

Pursuant to the guidance issued by the CFPB and The Federal Trade Commission, I have included my law enforcement report and my notarized Fraud Affidavit in this complaint. This ID theft report has been provided to all my creditors, however XXXX is choosing to ignore the facts and reach a conclusion against me, the victim of a sophisticated Fraud. 

XXXX has been provided with a legal notice summarized here : " Section 623 ( a ) ( 6 ). If a furnisher learns that it has furnished inaccurate information due to identity theft, it must notify each consumer reporting agency of the correct information and must thereafter report only complete and accurate information. Section 623 ( a ) ( 2 ). When any furnisher of information is notified pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 605B that a debt has resulted from identity theft, the furnisher may not sell, transfer, or place for collection the debt except in certain limited circumstances. Section 615 ( f ). '' They have failed to abide by those requirements and more, and therefore leave me no choice but to pursue assistance from the CFPB in order to resolve this fraudulent debt against me.

I am a victim of identity theft. I submitted dispute letters to Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX  notifying them of the accounts that did not belong to me on XXXX I have yet to recieve a response or credit report. The bureaus are in violation of my consumer rights. Failure to comply with these federal regulations by credit reporting agencies are investigated by the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) ( see 15 USC 41, et seq. ). The disputed items are entirely inaccurate and incomplete, and represents a very serious error in reporting. I request that the misleading information is deleted and a corrected credit profile is supplied to all creditors who have received a copy within the last six months, or the last two years for employment purposes.

Additionally, I request that the bureaus please provide the name, address, and telephone number of each credit grantor or other subscriber.

Under federal law the bureaus had thirty ( 30 ) days to complete their re-investigation, yet they have failed to respond. Flexibility was given and I allowed 60 days. Do not delay any further. 

Be advised that the description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information is hereby requested as well, to be provided within fifteen ( 15 ) days of the completion of your re-investigation. 

Sincerely yours
