Company: Ditech Financial LLC (CO)

I had a mobile home in XXXX - and moved west to XXXX. I had XXXX different people lease purchase and each one progressively destroyed the home more and more. I could not continue managing it and could not afford to fix it so I did voluntarily surrender the mobile home back to Green Tree. This was around XX/XX/2011. After they picked up the trailer a man called me and said I then owed them XXXX dollars and how would I like to pay it. I explained financially there is no way I could pay a lot. I agreed that day to XXXX/month. He told me they would review again in three months. I talked to that same man again three months later. He cautioned me to never miss or be late with a payment and I have not been late or missed since that time. Over the past year Green Tree Collections has become more and more aggressive and I stopped answering their calls. I am called in excess of XXXX times a week often more than XXXX time per day. I live in MT and I am called before XXXX even though I have told them my time zone. The last lady I physically talked to several months ago - asked me " what are your intentions '' I told her I intend to do the same as I have done for four years and continue to make the payment. She told me " well that is not an acceptable arrangement. '' I explained they have accepted it for several years now and continue to accept it. She began yelling at me - I hung up and will no longer answer their calls which are frequent and feel like harassment. 
Additionally I have NEVER received one thing in writing from them - nothing - since the repossession, until I filed a complaint with the credit bureau because Green Tree was not showing up on my credit at all - now it shows as delinquent and in bad standing even though I am paying what I initially agreed to and I will continue to pay what I agreed to.

I sent out a dispute letter via certified mail to Equifax on XXXX/XXXX/2015 and received a receipt showing the letter was delivered and received on XXXX/XXXX/2015. It is now XXXX/XXXX/2015 and I have yet to receive any type of response from Equifax. According to the FCRA all accounts that were disputed must be removed because the accounts could not be verified in that 30 day time frame period. I will include the original dispute letter and certified mail receipt when submitting this complaint. Thank you.

I fell behind once on my car payment ( XXXX/XXXX/15, {$330.00} ) but have a grace period ( XXXX/XXXX/15, {$350.00} ) and made automatic payment arrangements to pay {$250.00} on XXXX/XXXX/15 but apparently something adverse occurred & the full payment was n't successful only {$200.00}. The representative that called my phone at XXXX had not only a nasty attitude but threatened to repossess the car if they did n't get the {$47.00} that 's remaining for the agreement but the whole time he 's threatening me I 'm trying to tell him that it 's not an issue I 'll go load the money on a card so they can get the remaining {$47.00} dollars. He continues with the threats saying if they do n't get the {$47.00} that they 're going to repossess the car, I told him that I did n't like how he was talking to me & threatening me when I 'm going to correct the simple issue by applying more money for the agreed payment but he kept on with threats & a very nasty attitude so I asked to speak with a supervisor & was told that " I am the supervisor! ". If I would n't lose money that I 've already invested in this car I would definitely send this car back because of this companies customer representative & if I manage to save another down payment I wo n't concern myself with the money I 've loss making payments & give the car back & take my money to another car dealership that deals with a different bank/loan company because that Nationwide Southeast customer service representative had absolutely no cs skills whatsoever, all he did was threaten & talk over me, he did not try to listen or get an understanding about what was going on, which is at the least what should 've been done so the issue could be rectified. I 'm going to make sure that I report this company complaint to every source available because people do not deserve to be talked to or handled like this under no circumstances! His attitude & behavior was atrocious & the fact that he was a self-proclaimed supervisor makes this issue even more appalling. I will try my hardest to save for another car down payment just to not do business with Nationwide Southeast again!

I had been a client of First National bank of Omaha since the early XXXX. I just recently noticed they charged me an annual fee of XXXX which I never agreed to. I sent them an e-mail asking why and when had this started because when I applied for the card it had none. The response it happened in XXXX because of the card upgrade that took place. I do n't recall approving them to upgrade or even requested for an upgrade. The credit line with them had even reached up to XXXX but I requested to bring it down about 8 years ago. What is bad they have been charging me this fee and apply it to a XXXX percent interest rate, I only use the card only when promo of lower rates are offered. At this rate nobody would be able to pay them down. They agreed to reverse XXXX fee if I agreed to close my account. I have but I want to request all other fees in the past be reversed to include that high interest rate being charged on them. 

The question how much have I lost. I calculated an estimate of interest on the ann. fees being charged.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

My mortgage broker is unable to see my Equifax report. I called Equifax and they told me I have a fraud alert. I never had a fraud alert on my report and as of a couple weeks ago there was none on my report and I asked for none to be put on my report. They told me they would take it off. My broker still can not see my credit report, yet can see all of the others. I believe that Equifax is punishing consumers for disputing items on their credit reports by blocking their files from being accessed. Again, there is NO fraud alert on my credit report, I can see that on XXXX/XXXX/15 there is no fraud alert listed. But yet that is what Equifax claims. I have seen online others complain of this same issue with Equifax though I can tell the the Equifax and the bureaus have been able to employ and suppress negative information regarding their anti consumer bad deeds otherwise the first XXXX pages of a google search would be filled with more problems. I want Equifax to be investigated for these type of retaliatory activities.

Company: Onity Group Inc. (GA)

Ocwen Loan Servicing , LLC sent an Annual Escrow Disclosure Statement to me dated XX/XX/XXXX with an analysis date of XX/XX/XXXX. I received it on XX/XX/XXXX. 

On Page XXXX in the Escrow Cushion and Potential Escrow Shortage section - Expected Balance Deficiency paragraph, the communication stated that the total shortage is {$17.00}. On Page XXXX in the Escrow Account Projections section, the communication stated that the shortage may be paid directly and if the shortage is paid, the monthly payment will be adjusted accordingly. 

I paid the {$17.00} directly, which is shown on the XXXX XXXX Ocwen mortgage account statement that I received on XXXX XXXX. However, Ocwen still raised my total monthly payment to {$1100.00} instead of keeping my total monthly payment at {$1100.00}. Ocwen raised my total payment in XX/XX/XXXX after I paid the escrow shortage shortfall directly and could not explain the reason when I contacted them about it. 

With previous mortgages that I have had, the mortgage company kept my total payment the same when I paid the escrow shortfall directly. I am contacting the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau regarding why Ocwen 's communications state that they will keep my total payment the same amount if I pay the escrow shortage shortfall directly and they do not do this. Thank you for your reply.
