Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

I sent a letter regarding the errors and unfamiliar entries on my credit report, but sadly, I haven't heard back in over 30 days. It seems like my concerns are being overlooked, and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these issues aren't investigated within 30 days, they should be removed from my credit report without delay. I might need to pursue legal action because of the stress this situation has put me under.

When I tried to get a refi loan on my home. I was told I had co-signed on a car loan at a XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, CO on XXXX 2017. It is a joint loan with an XXXX XXXX XXXX and was given a name of XXXX XXXX. My name is not XXXX XXXX and I do not know who this person or person ( s ) are. I reported the error to XXXX and they refused to remove this person from my credit report. I have since contacted the police in XXXX XXXX, CO and they are investigating the incident. I do n't know if they have used my social security number or my deceased husband 's but need to have this corrected as soon as possible. I ca n't seem to talk to a person at XXXX so need some help getting this corrected asap. XXXX seems to take the side of the credit union instead of listening to me. It is very frustrating. The same error is on my Equifax credit report. Thanks for your help.

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (GA)

My household income changed and I was behind on my mortgage. I tried for over a year to complete the modification process. Each time they had me start over and submit new documents. Eventually, while I was actively within the underwriting part of the modification process, Chase sold my loan. I was forced to file a chapter XXXX to save my residence. I then applied for a modification through the new servicer and it was approved. I received a letter and a check from Chase this week stating that they made a mistake in giving me time to complete the process and gave me {$100.00} for the inconvenience. Based on the trauma and their practices, now this check, I think there is a bigger issue here.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NC)

My purse was stolen out of my car in a XXXX parking lot ( XXXX, NC ). I did not do a police report at that time. After recently pulling a copy my credit report I noticed that there are quite a number of medical debts that are n't mine. I immediately contacted the collection company who did not help me and then I contacted the credit bureaus. I disputed all items asking that signed documents be shown as proof that these charges belong to me. I have not received any original signed contracts to prove that these accounts are mine because there are none. I was told to get a police report but the years in between now and then of coarse that was impossible. I understand that each bureau reports differently however truthfully these accounts do n't belong on any of these bureaus credit report for me. I have attached my FTC Identity Theft Report Letter as well as the letter that I sent to Experian and XXXX XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. These accounts are making my credit bad and hurting my credit credibility. I have been trying to have these accounts removed for about three months now. This is unfair to me and I really need it to be fixed.

Issue: Managing an account — Fee problem
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (CA)

XXXX I had sent a direct ACH from another account that had bounced back without my knowledge being that I was out of town. A fee was triggered due to a gas post. Afterwards I had transferred {$300.00} into this business account and in the midst of my transfer being credited and another debit I was assessed another fee of {$35.00}. Then on XXXX, I was assessed an account maintenance fee. {$100.00} in fees within three business days, two of which were caused by bank glitches. 

On XXXX I checked my account balances and noticed an overdraft of {$65.00}. Upon checking my account balance, I had an account maintenance fee of {$29.00} which is supposed to be waived and a {$35.00} overdraft fee for a XXXX overdraft on a mistaken charge by XXXX. 

I have a Bank of America Business Advantage account which allows for a free account when you have Merchant Services with that account. It is expressly stated in the disclosures. I actively pay for it monthly. 

When the representative looked up my account they attempted to redefine terms regarding what an active Bank of America Merchant Account is ( A supervisor by the name of XXXX who refused to add any additional information besides her name and that she worked out of the XXXX Office ) She asked me to look at my account disclosure agreement which determines whether or not I am charged a fee and I did. XXXX said that I have to have an active Merchant Account with B of A Merchant Services, which I do, that I pay for. Which I said I do. 

She said, that it is only active if I batch within a 60 day period. None of the agreements state that, as well as I have batched several months this year and have been charged fees regardless. 

When I confronted her about this, and the abusive nature of trying to change terms that are not in writing nor agreed upon, not to mention being insulted and being told the only a first name XXXX, in XXXX with no other identifying information. I was extremely insulted. 

In the past 5 business days Bank of America has charged me {$160.00} in total bank charges based on bank glitches, maneuvering around agreed upon contracts and changing the terms with no proof or disclosure. 

I am concerned that I have been targeted by the bank for systematic fee abuse.

Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (TX)

I previously submitted CFPB XXXX XXXX against Citi for a {$960.00} charge to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I do not believe Citi conducted a thorough investigation and simply regurgitated what they mentioned the first time I submitted a complaint. There was no acknowledgement of the evidence I provided even being considered. 

I have attached Citi 's previous responses to my dispute to this complaint. I have also provided the additional supporting information Citi requested in their letter dated XXXX for me to continue disputing the {$960.00} charge. I do not want my complaint being ignored. While Citi 's process and procedure may be working as designed, it does not change the fact that XXXX XXXX XXXX STOLE from me by effectively including a " no refunds '' clause and not delivering on a contract. Citi 's process is flawed if a " no refunds '' clause is all that it takes for companies to take advantage of consumers.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — 
Company: Fay Servicing, LLC (PA)

Hi - My mortgage was modified many years ago when owned by XXXX XXXX. It was modified through XXXX. As part of the modification, my payments are to step up due to rate changes ( XXXX years at 2.0 %, XXXX at XXXX, XXXX at XXXX and finally a reset to 4.375 % ). My loan payment just modified to 4.0 % on XX/XX/XXXX. Since being modified, the mortgage not was sold and servicing rights were transferred to Fay Servicing. 

I am underwater on my mortgage balances. I purchased my home in XX/XX/XXXX for $ XXXX. I currently have a mortgage balance with Fay Servicing of $ XXXX and a second mortgage with XXXX XXXX of $ XXXX. I believe I could sell my home for somewhere between $ XXXX and $ XXXX based on recent comps. Realistically, if I were to sell at $ XXXX, I would need to bring approx. $ XXXX to the table to cover closing costs and mortgage deficiencies. That number also does not take into account the XXXX foreclosures in my neighborhood that I will be competing with that may drop that price and increase the amount I would need to come to the table with. 

I pro-actively reached out to Fay Servicing to explain that my income has not risen at a pace to keep up with the new payment structure. I alerted them to this over a year ago and then again last month ( XX/XX/XXXX ). At this point, I am not able to make my XX/XX/XXXXpayment as it is not within my budget. 

I just received Fay Serving 's response to my request for assistance. Their response is dated XX/XX/XXXX and simply states I am 'not eligible for an alternative to foreclosure '. Based on previous experience with Fay, I did not expect much assistance. But, this letter leads me to believe that my only option is foreclosure. 

Recently, I read an article about Fay Servicing was keeping borrowers in the dark about their foreclosure prevention options and a civil penalty assessed by the CFPB. Based on their response to me, I feel that this practice is continuing at Fay Servicing. 

Also, when reviewing my recent activity with Fay, there 's an odd line item dated XX/XX/XXXX. The line states : 'Misc Foreclosure and Bankruptcy Expenses '. I 've inquired about it to my account manager and have not received a response to my inquiry.
