Company: Ditech Financial LLC (CA)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I wrote Green Tree Servicing , LLC. to correct the property address on all my statements going forward, and as of today, they have refused to make that said correction. The property address shown under account number XXXX ( first mortgage that they have recently acquired from XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ) is : " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA XXXX '', and under account number XXXX ( 2nd mortgage ), the property address is shown as : " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX ''. The correct address is " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA XXXX ''. I have been paying for this property since XX/XX/XXXX, and I would like to make sure that the bank is not doing anything fraudulent by not putting the correct address on homeowners ' records. I had wondered in the past why XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX had allowed correction on XXXX Deeds using liquid white outs. Please help homeowners, like myself, protect our assets by making sure we are not victims of mortgage frauds. 

Green Tree Servicing Loan, LLC has also been incorrectly reporting the actual amount of money received from homeowners. I have recently paid {$560.00}, but they only show {$460.00} as " last paid amount '' on their website.

XXXX/XXXX/XXXX registered letter to EquiFax requesting information as who was paid funds stated on XXXX as I did not receive them.

EquiFax responded with their dispute form with " Result of our Reinvestigation '', " Please be specific with your concerns by using the account names, numbers, and the nature of the dispute. '' This is a cope out and delaying tactic by EquiFax as I enclosed a copy of their XXXX asking for a copy of who the disbursement was made to and any information where the funds were deposited. 

On the EquiFax web page the only phone numbers that I could find are those where you can not contact a live person and only speak to a robot. EquiFax will do everything to frustrate you in hopes you will give up. In their communications they never cross reference anything and do not respond to direct questions. I searched XXXX and found a number where I could speak to someone at EquiFax. 

I called XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and spoke to XXXX who was very helpful and got me over to XXXX XXXX XXXX unfriendly ) who is in their Dispute division and he stated I needed to address this to their legal and I would have to do this thru a lawyer.

I have had a dispute with EquiFax over the period from XXXX thru XXXX concerning a negative in my Credit Report. This was finally settled in a court case and there are no negatives in my report. 

I find EquiFax a horrible company which is beholden to the credit issuers and not the consumer who is an obstacle to their bottom line. All I want is the information related to this XXXX form.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I filed XXXX bankruptcy in the XXXX XXXX of Indiana . In my petition, I listed all current accounts. All credit bureaus were properly notified, as were all affected companies. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, my bankruptcy was discharged. 
I logged into Equifax to initiate a dispute on several past addresses, and noticed XXXX ( image enclosed ) was still showing under investigation ( proof to the contrary enclosed ). It is also showing a derogatory status, with a balance. It has shown this during the entire bankruptcy proceeding, meaning Equifax has violated the automatic stay AND is culpable for reporting inaccurate information, thereby damaging my credit. Furthermore, there is a XXXX XXXX XXXX account you 'll notice on the enclosed image that is showing under investigation as well, although there is no current investigations according to the XXXX image. This is misleading and clearly a misstep on Equifax 's behalf.

Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account — 
Company: PHH Mortgage Services Corporation (AA)

My mortgage servicer, PHH corporation, has failed to apply my mortgage payments properly. Specifically, when I make additional principal pre-payments, PHH assumes that a portion of my principal payments will be held for future mortgage payments. I can provide evidence of their distribution of my payments through attachments ( screenshots ). When I contacted PHH to fix the problem I was promised resolution by a foreign call center employee. The resolution of principal payment was scheduled to take place 10 business days after my request. XXXX days after my request PHH had not resolved my payment issue. Bottom line- PHH is holding large principal pre-payments as " future payments ''. Of course, this practice favors PHH as borrowers essentially provide PHH with a free loan instead of paying down their mortgage principal. Failure to resolve this business practice reduces " borrower morale '' and enhances the risk of default for borrowers that feel helpless. Given the reluctance of PHH to change this practice, borrowers probably feel that this process is a systematic attempt to keep people in debt for the full life of the mortgage. In this sense, PHH does not impose a pre-payment penalty, but deters pre-payment attempts through their business practices. 

Forensics : I have attached screenshots of my account activity with PHH. My normal mortgage payment is attached ( {$1100.00} ). On XX/XX/2015 I made a payment in the amount of XXXX ( see attached ). Minus my mortgage payment due XX/XX/2015, PHH should have posted an additional pre-payment to principal of {$3100.00}. Instead PHH posted an additional principal payment of {$2000.00}, paid the XXXX payment of {$1100.00}, and held onto an additional {$1100.00} for my XX/XX/2015 payment. In this scenario PHH assumes that I would rather provide them with with a no-interest loan than pay my mortgage down early. The XXXX 2015 payment that was held for " safe keeping '' was intended for principal pre-payment, not a free money loan to PHH. PHH has failed to rectify the error after I notified them of their mistake.

Company: Castle Credit Co Holdings, LLC, Chicago, IL Branch (NC)

On or about XXXX XXXX, XXXX we learned that Castle Credit had placed a lien on our property in XXXX. On or about XXXX XXXX we began contacting Castle Credit by telephone. During the initial call on XXXX XXXX and in several calls since then, we have explained to various representatives at Castle that we are in the process of selling our home and would like to get this matter resolved quickly so that we may close on our home by XXXX XXXX. In the very first conversation with Castle, we were told that Castle no longer owned the debt associated with the lien and because they no longer owned the debt they could not provide us with any information regarding the debt, including the balance. In each subsequent conversation with Castle, we have asked Castle to either release the lien as, per their own admission, they no longer own the debt associated with the lien or provide us with the amount of the debt we allegedly owe ( see call log attached ). While we have been repeatedly told by Castle that they no longer own the debt, Castle has continuously refused to release the lien with most recent conversation ending when the Castle supervisor abruptly hung up on us. At the same time, Castle has also refused to provide us with any information of the alleged debt, most particularly the debt amount. 

We simply can not be held hostage by Castle. This action or blatant inaction by Castle has the potential to prevent us from completing the sale of our house and cause us great emotional and financial distress. We have had no choice but to explore our various options of recourse. We have contacted counsel and have been advised we can file a Quiet Title claim and seek recovery of our attorney 's fees. We were also advised to file this complaint Consumer Finance Protection Bureau as well as the North Carolina Department of Justice Consumer Protection Division and the Better Business Bureau.

Issue: Credit reporting company's investigation — Problem with statement of dispute
Company: Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (FNIS) (VT)

On XXXX XXXX, 2016, I attempted to resolve an issue with Certegy and their agent or subsidiary Complete Payment Recovery after a billing error at a merchant ( XXXX XXXX resulted in a returned ACH debit. Certegy steadfastly refused to document the dispute or continue the conversation unless I provided my driver 's license number, which the merchant does not have and which was not used in any way in my account relationship with the merchant. There was no question of my having established my identity to Certegy 's call center, since I had verified my name and had received their subsidiary 's notice at the address they had for me. The only reason for them to obtain my driver 's license number would be to attempt to decline checks and humiliate me in a retail store that used their service ; their flimsy " for verification '' excuse for demanding the information reeks of the same " for verification '' excuse used by fraudulent telemarketers phishing for social security and credit card account numbers. 
I offered during our conversation to pay Certegy the full amount of the returned ACH debit, as they had already advanced that amount to the merchant. They refused unless I paid their fee as well, and would not discuss the fact that the fee was caused by their client and not by me - unless I gave them my driver 's license number. 
XXXX would think that in an environment where consumers and organizations alike are vigilant about identity theft, a company like Certegy would make an attempt to resolve disputes without collecting information unrelated to the disputes themselves. In this case, however, it is clear that collecting the money is only a secondary concern for Certegy. Their primary concern seems to be creating a complete biography of this consumer so that that information can used for their profit. 
I have chosen to file this complaint under " credit reporting '' because it is my belief that Certegy is a consumer reporting agency as defined in FCRA. For as long as they claim they do not have to resolve our dispute, I risk having Certegy report inaccurate information to other consumer reporting agencies, which will damage my ability to obtain credit or change employers. Their behavior in this case, if they report the inaccurate information or attempt to humiliate me by declining a check in a retail store, may very well be actionable apart from the instant dispute. 
I have attached the mailed notice from CPR and a copy of my complaint to XXXX which includes some more details.
