Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account — 
Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION (MI)

USAA screwed up my escrow account for property taxes. Last year I was only in the house for 6 months so I paid half the taxes and they used that same amount that I paid last year for only half the year for this years taxes which were for a whole year. So now I need to pay {$2900.00} extra or add more to my monthly mortgage payment. They claim it was n't their fault and that the taxes increased but that is not the case the taxes are exactly the same all that changed is instead of only paying for 6 months we paid for a full 12 months. USAA also tried to sell my mortgage off only 2 weeks after we signed it. Something needs to be done about their shady business. They are supposed to help veterans and their families but all they do is cause grief.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE (MD)

On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, Barclay closed my Barclay Arrival MasterCard account and sent a letter indicating the following : We have recently conducted a review of our accounts. Following this review, we regret to advise you that we are unable to maintain an account with you because of your history of account usage. Your account has been closed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Cardmember Agreement that governs your account. '' Upon receipt of this letter, I called Barclay 's on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and spoke to a customer service representative and a manager. I asked them for the reason why my account was closed without any warning and they basically just repeated what the letter had stated and that they could not provide any more details. I told them that I had XXXX Barclay Arrival points in this account that I can no longer access because the account is now closed. The manager stated that there was nothing he could do to get those points to be credited back to me. These points are worth approximately {$1500.00} if they are redeemed towards travel expenses such as hotels, airfare, etc. I was travelling to XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Had planned to use my points for travel during that period. But they cancelled my card while I was in XXXX and hence could n't use Barclay card during my international travel at all. I am unhappy with the way that they have closed my account. I have never ever been late on making payments and keeping outstanding balance well within my credit limit. I would have appreciated if Barclay 's had at least notified me about what I had been doing that was unsatisfactory, so that I could have avoided being closed. Instead they closed my account without any warning. I was planning to downgrade my card to basic one anyways but they said there was not a way to do so and they would not even refund or compensate for my points that I accumulated for my international travel, which is what they point out as best benefit associated with the credit card to begin with. Its very unethical and rude on Barclay 's part and caused huge discomfort as I had planned to rely on them for the duration of my stay in XXXX.

Company: American Financial Resources, Inc. (MO)

I have applied for a home mortgage with American Financial Resources. They asked me for information in regards to some properties that were included in a bankruptcy, which was discharged and I was no longer held accountable. AFR is claiming they were foreclosed on after my bankruptcy ( keep in mind no longer my obligation ). I know the law states I once the bankruptcy is discharged I am no longer responsible financially for the properties. I provided all the documentation and explained to them the process. They are now asking for documentation that does n't even exist and asking for letter from my accountant that he legally ca n't document. I feel they are discriminating again me because of my previous financial history, even though I have provided all the legal documentation confirming everything in question. Now there are some concerns on what documentation they are asking to provide given lending laws. Thanks.

Ocwen Loan Servicing acting as the Servicer of this Mortgage has failed to meet all of its requirements under HBOR and is attempting to illegally foreclose on our personal home by selling it at auction on XXXX XXXX. The direct violation of HBOR law is based on Ocwen Loan Servicing improperly and unfairly reviewing our loan modification request for relief. We have submitted a complete loan modification direct via fax. Ocwen Loan Servicing illegally commenced and is conducting a foreclosure without attempting to find workout relief options for us. They have mishandled our documents and file several times and failed to properly communicate with us throughout the process. They simply wish to foreclose and kick us out onto the streets. They have clearly violated HBOR specifically under the " dual tracking '' clause. Ocwen Loan Servicing instructed and allowed the foreclosure trustee named XXXX XXXX XXXX to illegally start foreclosure on my property. The Ocwen Loan Servicing and know your options website gave the result that we are eligible for a Loan Modification with a lower payment to save our property. So there is no reason why Ocwen Loan Servicing should have denied our request or started foreclosure on our home.

I started looking into ( XXXX ) it and found out it was from a debt collector, working for Macy 's ( Citibank ). I logged in to Macy 's account and was surprise with a XXXX statement showed a {$62.00} balance. Apparently, without my knowledge, they charged me a {$2.00} interest in the XXXX statement, even though I paid the account in full ( and closed the account ) before the due date. Then they continued charging me with a few dollars every month that added up to a {$62.00} balance. I called them and asked for the explanation of the charge and the lady took my called said it ( the first {$2.00} ) was the residual interest because I carried a balance in the previous month. The rest was fees because I did not pay for it on time. Against my better judgment, I went ahead and paid the balance ( {$62.00} ) on XXXX XXXX, XXXX because I did not want to hassle and wanted the problem to go away. The problem did not go away, they charged me with another {$2.00} on XXXX XXXX. In addition, they reported to the credit report bureau that I was late in my payment ( on a closed account? ). I am going to pay the {$2.00}. However, I would like to submit a complain about Macy 's credit card ( Citibank ) 's unfair business practice.

I asked a simple questions in regards to what would the requirements would be to open an account with this bank, they stated I needed two forms of I.D . and my social security. At that point I asked if my social security number was mandatory to obtain in order to proceed with the account, they stated that it was a type of U.S. Law that required me to provide that with any account. After I was verbally told that specific information, I pulled up this website that states that a social security number was not a requirement so they proceeded with asking more personal information, thereafter I was told to leave the branch due to not qualifying under their policy. This situation was embarrassing and made me feel discriminated against. No disclosure or acknowledgement where in the advertisement stating what they mentioned to me in the branch.

Company: BBVA FINANCIAL CORPORATION (TX)

BBVA Compass is scamming customers. 
When a customer pays their credit card bill at the BBVA Compass website, here is what happens : The funds are IMMEDIATELY withdrawn from the customer 's checking account. 
However, it takes 5 days to post to the credit card. 

I often transfer {$5000.00} from my checking account to my credit card balance ( on the BBVA Compass website ), and this happens everytime. 

Bottom line : they TAKE my money out of checking immediately, but withhold the payment to my credit card for 5 days. This is unfair to the consumer who now can not access the money from the checking account, but still does not have their balance cleared on the credit card.

The account was transferred to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX as current, due for XXXX/XXXX/15. The XXXX payment was processed on XXXX/XXXX/15. The XXXX payment was also sent to XXXX and processed on XXXX/XXXX/15. I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX at the end of XXXX advising that my XXXX payment had not been received. I called and spoke to an agent who advised that I must sent in proof of payment. The proof of payment was faxed on XXXX/XXXX/15. On XXXX/XXXX/15, I received a call from the servicer advising that they completed research and determined that all payments were posted accurately and the account was still delinquent. I spoke to a supervisor who advised that at the time of service transfer, the account was 30 days delinquent and due for XXXX/XXXX/15. 

I sent in an additional proof of payment for all XXXX payments, including a screenshot of my transaction history on XXXX/XXXX/15.

My last conversation was on Monday, XXXX/XXXX/15, in which the agent advised that they are trying to get a hold of CHFA to see what happened. As they answered the phone as XXXX loan servicing, I was under the impression that they were doing the research. It has been almost 30 days and I have yet to receive a response. 

Additionally, on top of the dispute, I am currently accruing late charges and negative reporting to my credit. 

I would like to have this issue resolved as soon as possible as it has been over 35 days since the first dispute was sent in.
