Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Ditech Financial LLC (NV)

My loan with Ditech Financial L.L.C. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, SD, XXXX,  Phone XXXX, was paid in full ( closed ) on XX/XX/XXXX. I had set up automatic debit to pay my monthly mortgage with the funds withdrawn from my checking account on the XX/XX/XXXX of each month. No one told me to call Ditech to  stop the automatic payment. Since the loan was pain on XX/XX/XXXX, I did not anticipate Ditech would withdraw my payment on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$2200.00}. When I logged onto my checking account I was horrified to see Ditech withdrew the funds even though the account was closed. I called customer service on XX/XX/XXXX and they stated it was my fault and a separate department handled this matter and they would process a check in 30 days and mail it to me. I asked if they could refund the money to my account electronically and they said NO. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke with supervisor XXXX, Ditech ID : XXXX,  who stated there was no way to expedite my refund. They will not pay interest on the {$2200.00} they owe me. I think this debit of my money is wrong. Since they have a special department to handle the refunds of automatic debits after the loan is closed, I suggest they do this frequently and use this as a means to earn money and interest on the money to the detriment of the consumer. My initial loan was with XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and they sold the loan to Ditech. I did not choose Ditech as my mortgage company. I hope your agency will take action regarding Ditech 's practices. I think if I had n't told them to stop the automatic payment on XX/XX/XXXX, they would continue to debit my account without regard for the XXXX balance on the account. Thank you for your considerate attention to the above and I hope you will be able to expedite my refund. I hope there is some recourse against Ditech to prevent this from happening to others.

Dear Sir or Madam of the CFPB, It is my hope that the CFPB will assist in resolving the ongoing illegal activity being conducted by  Wells Fargo Dealer Services  and its agents. I have, in good faith, attempted to resolve the dispute with  WFDS  on more than  5  occasions. As of  XXXX   2017 , WFDS has yet to resolve and discontinue reporting incorrect, unvalidated, and illegal data to the credit reporting agencies.     As the attachments will show,  WFDS  continues to interfere with the health of my credit by continuously reporting erroneous information . WFDS c ontinues to misreport account standing and balance in direct conflict and in violation of the FCRA.     WFDS, directed its agents to claim the financed vehicle in question from me. I no longer have the vehicle in my possession as  WFDS  took claim to the vehicle. As of  XXXX   2017 , I have yet to receive written documentation as to the value of the sale of the vehicle, the redemption notice, the re-calucation after sale, and other pertinent legally required documentation. WFDS has been in breach of its contract obligations and credit reporting requirements.     For the last 2 years , WFDS r eports erroneous information. I am seeking assistance in ending the erroneous, harmful, and damaging credit reporting being done by WFDS and its agents. Please review the attached documentation, phone calls, and letters, to reveal the antics o f WFDS  and the struggle I have endured in ending the harm caused b y WFDS .

Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CA)

Re Citibank Branch, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX CA Opening teenage son 's account - unauthorized withdrawal of his money to order deluxe checks after we explicitly said he didn't want any checks. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I brought my XXXX year old son into Citibank to open his account so that he could have a debit card. I have been with Citibank since XX/XX/XXXX and had several accounts with them. 

When we filled out the paperwork for my son 's account which had to be a checking account for him to get a debit card, we clearly explained that we didn't want any checks for him. Despite that, the bank ordered deluxe checks for my XXXX year old and charged his account {$25.00}. 

I have been long dissatisfied with Citibank and this was the final straw that they would rob from a child 's account. On XX/XX/XXXX, I went into the branch to close all of my accounts and my son 's and get back my son 's money they took to buy checks. They dragged the process on and then told me at the end that I would have to come back after XX/XX/XXXX, to get the money as it was a third party vendor. 

I asked as it was the bank that was in the wrong in taking my son 's money in the first place, if they could draw me a check for it and they could then be reimbursed by the check vendor but they refused and insisted I would have to come back to get my son 's money.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: AMCOL Systems, Inc. (TX)

On XX/XX/XXXX I was a patient at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to receive XXXX in my XXXX. I paid the amount due at the time of the visit, which was something like {$100.00} - {$150.00}. The remainder of the bill was sent to my insurance company. Unbeknownst to me at the time of needing XXXX in my XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was not in network for my insurance company, and as a result I ended up owing additional funds to the service provider. They sent me a bill, which -- as happens from time-to-time -- fell through the cracks as I was traveling a lot for my job during that period. A few months later, the bill was sent to AMCOL Systems for collection. This is very atypical for me ; I have worked very hard for the better part of my adult life to establish good credit. I am very protective of my credit score, and it was never my intention to willfuly ignore the debt. However, my job continued to be extremely demanding at that time and required that I move my family to a new city. On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted AMCOL to pay the debt. Rather than negotiating a discounted payoff, I asked them if they would remove the collection from my credit report if I paid the debt in full. They did tell me that it was unlikely they would have the debt removed from my credit, but that a " paid in full '' status would be significantly better for my credit than " paid as agreed. '' I did pay them in full, but my credit has not improved as they said it would. I 've since called them multiple times and talked with multiple people asking them to please stop reporting my paid in full debt to the bureaus, but they simply will not do it. I know they absolutely have the ability to have the bureaus remove the collection from my report, but they simply choose not to because of their company policy - a policy that clearly is not in the best interest of American consumers. Not only is their policy unfair and unjust, but they continue to report to the bureaus every 2 weeks that my debt was paid in full, which keeps it at the top of my credit report and will continue to make it appear as a young debt. At this point it just feels spiteful.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

XXXX The account was paid in full via the XXXX XXXX XXXX arrangement for a payoff date directly with them they agreed to. How can anyone continue a security hold on a paid item- duh? That hold needed to come off once the account was paid. Never was I advised I was closing the account. At minimum the account should be moved to good standing paid. This is beyond comprehension that it should remain in the negative side of the report causing me untold financial harm! Their retort- When an account closes, XXXX has an obligation to report that accurately, using the format set by the credit reporting agencies. To report an account as closed XXXX must either indicate the account as closed by consumer or by credit grantor. Since it was not our decision to close your account, but rather you through your mortgage lender, we reported the account as having been Closed by consumer.
1 this was a requirement of the Title Company when a home closes. It was not my request to close the account as they stated it was THEIRS- and that should reflect on the account pas paid in the positive column.
2- I was advised by them verbally the account would remain open. So much for Oral agreements! ' The key word accurately! I never closed the account- it was by nature of another lender and they never asked the account be closed just the security hold removed from public records. [ as closed by consumer or by credit grantor. ] If this is the companies policy then let them report accurately as they openly state they are required to do. How can they post this in the negative when they were involved in the account payoff?
