Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: BWW Law Group, LLC (MD)

I, XXXX and XXXX XXXX, am officially filing this complaint against Debt Collectors ; BWW Law Group and XXXX XXXX for violations under the RESPA. On XX/XX/2017, BWW Law Group and XXXX XXXX auctioned off our property known as XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Maryland XXXX. However, these debt collectors had no standing to sell our property. In addition, the document used as a debt instrument was fraudulent and the lender named as the secured party to the foreclosure, XXXX Mortgage, had NO knowledge that they were a part of the unlawful sale of our property. Furthermore, at the time of the foreclosure sale, there was no debt or lien on our property. This has since in recent events been validated by the lender XXXX Mortgage that we owned the property free and clear. These Debt collectors were aware that there was no debts or liens on our property. They used deceptive practices to convince the court to allow them to commit these fraudulent acts against us and our property. Now, we are days away from being evicted. This action has forced both me and my wife to file for Bankruptcy in order to stave off the evictions. IF WE DO NOT GET HELP, WE WILL BE HOMELESS AND WITHOUT MEANS! WE ARE ASKING, IF POSSIBLE THAT CFPB OPEN AN INVESTIGATION CONCERING THE DEBT COLLECTORS BWW LAW GROUP AND XXXX XXXX. The lender who transferred our mortgage was XXXX XXXX. XXXX transferred our mortgage to XXXX Mortgage, and XXXX transferred our mortgage to XXXX XXXX. All of their action were violation under RESPA Law! XXXX Mortgage has already submitted its deposition ( XXXX ) to the CFPB. ( See Attachments ).

During the end of this loan modification process, XXXX bought our loan and has not updated our our account with the signed loan modification - even though we have provided the signed modification that is currently on our XXXXXXXX XXXX  account website, along with our payment history. We have not missed a payment. 

XXXX also has documentation of us honoring the terms of our loan modification on their website but said administrative issues have precluded them from transferring the modification and updating our account properly. 

I have a signed copy of our notarized modification, and both XXXX and XXXX have documentation showing we have met the terms of payment. 

We would like to sue XXXX and XXXX for mishandling our loan modification and causing harm to our credit report and livelihoods.

I have recently reviewed my credit report and noticed some unauthorized accounts on my credit report and under 15 USC 1681a number 3. You ( XXXX, XXXX, Experian ) assumed this role without permission. Not only that, you did not have my consent, you guys did not respect my right to privacy which is under 15 USC 1681a number 4. You did not exercise your grave responsibility. You were unfair and you were partial. I have already taken the liberty to file a CFPB report and an Attorney Generals complaint. You never had permissible purpose under 15 USC 1681b number 2. I never instructed you guys to furnish this report and I never consented to this report in the first place. What Im demanding is that you delete inaccurate information such as ALL inquirys and XXXX XXXX account it says the account was charged off in XXXX. 90 days late in XXXX and closed in XXXX. How can that be? The entire account is inaccurate, on XXXX, XXXX, and Experian and has been for 2 years and has caused me serious harm. See attachments as proof. 

( 2 ) The term serious harm means any harm, whether physical or nonphysical, including psychological, financial, or reputational harm, that is sufficiently serious, under all the surrounding circumstances, to compel a reasonable person of the same background and in the same circumstances to perform or to continue performing labor or services in order to avoid incurring that harm.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (RI)

I sent two wire transfers to America Express via their wire payment directions on their website. I had attempted to make a large purchase, but given I am a new XXXX  card member, they stated I would need to pre-pay to run such a large amount ( {$150000.00} ) if I wanted the points from using my card. 

The money has exited my two accounts ( both $ XXXX and $ XXXX transactions posted XX/XX/2022 ) but the payment never posted to my AMEX. Originally, customer service told me the wire would post in XXXX hours. I was then told by a different customer service rep that it would take 7-10 working days. It has now been 22 days, and there is no trace of the money in our AMEX account. We have opened a formal dispute, per AMEX request, with no progress yet.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (NY)

I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (TX)

The fact that the law gives me protection as a consumer against false information being simply reported on my credit report has been disregarded by the credit bureaus. I would like to make one last request for analysis before I meet with my own legal counsel so that I may understand how to handle erroneous and unverified materials that are now being regarded as true. Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) require the three credit bureaux to confirm these accounts ( A ). It is prohibited to reject these reporting accounts as unreliable information within the legally allowed time frame without providing any rationale. The following accounts are shown on my credit report as needing enquiry and adjustment because of erroneous reporting : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$6600.00} DEPTEDXXXXXXXX  XXXX Balance Owed : {$23000.00} DEPTEDXXXX XXXXXXXX Balance Owed : {$19000.00} XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance Owed : {$2400.00} XXXX  XXXX XXXXXXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$0.00}
