Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (CA)

My problem with Wells Fargo Home Mortgage started after I filed bankruptcy to save another property I own in a different state. I have XXXX loans with Wells Fargo and was having problems with the mortgage on a property I own in XXXX, CA. My bankruptcy was filed in XXXX. On or about XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from Wells Fargo Home Mortgage stating that I was to send my mortgage payments to Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, IA XXXX. I began making the payments to this address. My bankruptcy was dismissed in XX/XX/XXXX and I was told that there was un-applied funds in the amount of {$2400.00}. I continued to make my payments but then I started receiving letters from Wells Fargo that I was behind in the payments.and was given an amount of over $ {$6000.00} that was delinquent. I never stopped making payments on the loan and provided Wells Fargo with copies of cashed money orders drawn on Wells Fargo Bank as evidence that I was making the payments so this amount has been in dispute. I also requested the loan be audited and received a letter XX/XX/XXXX that the inquiry was going to take longer than they expected and would be resolved by no later than XX/XX/XXXX. I continued to make payments to the XXXX XXXX IA address. I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from an attorney, XXXX and XXXX, XXXX that Wells Fargo has turned my account over to foreclosure and was advised that a foreclosure was file on XXXX XXXX but no date for the foreclosure sale has been set. I am very upset about this as I feel they are now trying to take my home. I am XXXX years old and on a fixed income. I receive all kinds of letters, phone calls and people coming to my home saying they have been sent by the bank and trying to gain access to the inside of my home. I never received a resolution from Wells Fargo regarding the audit of the loan. I contacted Wells Fargo and explained to them that I had the money orders to prove I have been making payments and they told me my loan had not been paid since XX/XX/XXXX and that I owed approximately {$8400.00} in back payments, not included fees. I spoke to a gentleman named XXXX and he advised me to send in the copies of the money orders. This will be the third time I have provided them with proof that I have made the payments. At this point, I do n't have confidence or trust in Wells Fargo to follow through with what they promised and feel it is in my best interest to file this complaint. I have been trying to apply for a loan modification but was told I had too much income. That is impossible as I am on a fixed income ; I receive a small pension and social security. I also have been advised that the loan I was in was a deferred interest loan and was considered predatory. My mortgage balance is upside down with the additional interest due on the loan. Please assist me to mitigate foreclosure on my home. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out.

Issue: Credit reporting company's investigation — Problem with statement of dispute
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (VA)

I filed a complaint via US mail requesting dispute/investigation with Equifax information listed in my credit report. Mainly to update the phone numbers listed in the consumer statement ( Fraud Alert ). The numbers have changes and I wanted them updated. 
I provided all the needed proof documents, ( Copy ID, SSN Card, Copy Phone Bill, etc ). 
I have not received an update on my mailed in request to update my information. 
I did however get a mailed statement from Equifax ( attached ) which states that they are adding a " XXXX '' statement to my credit report, and that it would remain in effect for 12 months. Plus they are notifing all the other credit reporting agencies ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX ) of " XXXX '' status added to report. 
This had nothing to do with my request. I am employed with XXXX XXXX XXXX was prior military XXXX years ago, and I am NOT on XXXX. All I wanted was the phone numbers updated on the Fraud Statement on my account. The NEW phone numbers should be XXXX and XXXX. I have NO KNOWLEDGE of any XXXXXXXXstatus to report for military service. Plus they are now adding it to all XXXX credit reporting agencies. So now they are no only in-correct in there reporting, but they are reporting incorrect information to other agencies. This is unbelievable!! 
These reporting agencies are total unaccountable for the mistakes and errors they impose on consumers. When you address this issue with them, please ask them to update what was request the " phone number for Fraud Statement '' XXXX and XXXXXXXXWhat can I do, as a consumer to hold the agency accountable. As a federal regulator and consumer protection agency. Making them correct what is wrong, does n't go far enough. 
A huge civil fine, putting a dent in the pockets of the company is the only to make change with these agencies. Yearly I pull my report, and each and every year something is wrong with the reporting. There mistake, not what a company reported. We need your help to correct this problem at all consumers face

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under XXXX U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: Retrieval-Masters Creditors Bureau, Inc., Elmsford, NY Branch (NY)

Hello-A doctor 's bill was sent to the wrong address, so I received a debt collection notice via the telephone saying I owed payment. No big deal, I contacted my insurance company and doctor and they confirmed it was legitimate. I told the debt collection agency that I was in the process of contacting those companies and I planned to pay when that was confirmed. I received the XXXX notice about 10 days ago. 

I received a call from the collection agency today and was told they were going to report the bill to the credit agencies. I said okay, I 've confirmed it 's real and I 'll pay it online right now, since I do n't feel comfortable giving my credit card information over the phone. They said that if I pay online, it wo n't post for three days and by that time I will have my debt reported. I said okay fine - I 'll take that chance and I 'll have a confirmation email, which I can use to clear that up later. They said I would n't receive a confirmation email for the payment either, so I had to pay over the phone. 

This seemed odd, so I asked to speak to a supervisor and they said the same thing. I hung up and paid my bill online. Unsurprisingly, I received a confirmation email immediately. I called back 15 minutes after making my payment and I was told their system shows that my balance was paid in full. So obviously, all of those previous statements about online posting and confirmation emails were bold-faced lies designed to be pressure tactics. It was pretty disgusting.

For CFPB & PayPal Inc, Thank you for deciding to read this message to help me out in regards to a indefinite suspension which was Issued on my servicing account with PayPal. 

On XXXX XXXX, PayPal decided to manually overview my account and believed it was best to finalize my partnership. This was due to a possible violation which may have happened on my account. The permanent restriction was placed on my account causing {$1000.00} to be held at my expense. 

The concern was that I was believed to infringe the rights of copyright holders when processing my sales with PayPal. After contacting agents to overlook the decision by phone and email, my request was denied. 

The reason being is that the items I sell are not fake. They are legally obtained through liquidations. I have been selling for over 5 years now, never having a problem with any brand owners regarding copyright infringement. We have now started drop shipping from our exporter for Almost two years with PayPal, coming to around XXXX satisfied eBay customers due to our exporters expertise in shipping within handling time, while providing items that are known for there authenticity. 

As a last reminder, please note that we have never had to a case opened under the counterfeit category with PayPal. This assures that we as a business never had any related " counterfeit '' problems with PayPal until this indefinite restriction came in place.

Bank of America is attempting to foreclose on a property. The TILA Agreement was never presented. Only the HUD Settlement Form. I requested the Title Company XXXX XXXX to send all of my documents which I signed at closing and there is no TILA Agreement.

XXXX Trustee and Bank of America are initiating a Foreclosure set for XXXX XXXX, XXXX and America 's Wholesale Lender never responded to a Qualified Written Request. The Qualified Written Request to America 's Wholesale Lender was Sent via Certified Mail Return Receipt Requested back in XXXX and never responded nor did Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems which are other parties listed in the Deed of Trust as Lender and Beneficiary. America 's Wholesale Lender A Corporation does not exist as a Corporation Tax Payer in XXXX. Therefore, I would like to have in writing who is the appropriate lender who has standing to foreclose. Otherwise, I would like to take the appropriate action to Rescind the mortgage since XXXX advised in XXXX that they were not the Lender, Owner of the Property or the Loan. Since the Truth and Lending documents were not issued at closing, and I can not contact the Lender for the TILA Agreement with a existing entity, I would like to know who is the true Lender to the note and deed of trust.
