Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (FL)

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit. This incorrect information is greatly hindering me from getting the credit score I deserve and hopefully, this letter will resolve all the issues on my credit. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/2017 ( amount was {$9000.00} ) Received phone calls from National Commercial Services about having to pay a claim dealing with a car accident Stated if I didnt pay the amount, I will go to jail and they will suspend my liscense.

I told them I couldnt pay the amount and they didnt care about my situation and said I have to pay no matter what. Not sure if its a scam. The insurance company never said I had to pay a claim.

They never sent me a letter stating why I had to pay so much.

This complaint in in regard to another complaint I have open. This is how these credit bureaus try to slight people but this is fraud!!! This morning I received an email FROM XXXX stating that my address has been updated with them and to call the number on the back of my card if I did n't authorize this. I DID NOT AUTHORIZE THIS. I DO NOT HAVE A CARD OR ACCOUNT WITH THEM. THESE CREDIT BUREAUS are trying to use the address I provided them to update this account on my credit profile to claim this is me that opened this account WHEN IT WAS NOT ME. This is fraudulent! I do n't even know what address they placed on this XXXX account.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (TX)

I have information on my equifax that is reporting incorrectly. I was a victim of identity theft and the equifax credit bureau was notified of the identity theft situation in XXXX and I have provided the police report along with identity theft affidavit from the FTC along with my proper identification and the letter of acknowledgment from one of the creditors that the fraudulent account should not be reported. 
Somehow equifax still is reporting the erroneous information on my credit file which has caused unnecessary hardship. They did not provide me with the method of their investigation and the creditors have verified that equifax never reached out to them. 
Equifax keeps reporting the erroneous information and after 2 years of struggle with trying to have them correct my credit reporting i still have no positive results. 
Even with a creditor providing a letter for the information to be removed, equifax somehow have verified that the information is accurate and would not share the result of their investigation or the written response from the creditor. 
The following accounts are being reported erroneously and should be removed immediately. 

XXXX/XXXX ACCOUNTS 1- XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Status : CHARGE-OFF 2- XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Status : CHARGE-OFF 3- XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Status : CHARGE-OFF 4- XXXX XXXX XXXX Account XXXX : XXXX Status : CHARGE-OFF COLLECTION ACCOUNTS 1-XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Original Amount Owned : {$180.00} 2- XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Original Amount Owned : {$50.00} 3- XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Original Amount Owned : {$240.00} 4- XXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Original Amount Owned : {$240.00}

Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (CA)

NationStar Mortgage acting as the Servicer of this mortgage has failed to meet all of its requirements under XXXX and is attempting to illegally foreclosing on our personal home by selling it at auction on XXXX XXXX, 2015 with the assistance of a Foreclosure Trustee named XXXX. The direct violation of XXXX law is based on NationStar Mortgage improperly and unfairly reviewing our loan modification request for relief which was never processed by them because they lost the file and all documents. I submitted a complete loan modification direct via fax and have been forced to resubmit the same package several times at no avail. In addition, NationStar Mortgage has repeatedly denied us help several times and we never get a single person or SPOC to answer our questions honestly or directly. They always have several of their reps pass off our file amongst each other just to create delays. They have mishandled our documents and file several times and failed to properly communicate with us throughout the process. We intended to keep our home and we meet all eligibility criteria. They have never offered any help or relief and continue to threaten to take our home. NationStar Mortgage Mortgage illegally commenced and is conducting a foreclosure while reviewing attempting to find workout relief options for us. They simply wish to foreclose and kick us out onto the streets. They have clearly violated XXXX specifically under the " dual tracking '' clause.. Now NationStar Mortgage instructed and allowed the Foreclosure Trustee named XXXX to illegally start foreclosure on my property. NationStar Mortgage. So there no valid or justifiable reason why NationStar should have denied our request or started foreclosure on our home. As a foreclosure avoidance option, we hired a RE Agent Named XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX to handle and start a short sale. We accepted an offer and now NationStar refuses to accept the offer that she submitted in early XXXX of 2015 and said they will continue with the foreclosure sale. The sale is still set and they wont stop it to process the short sale which is wrong and illegal.

Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (NJ)

During XXXX XXXX, the state of NJ was hit hard. It was a natural disaster. As with others, my husband and I suffered financially. I asked Nationstar Mortgage to move the payment to the back of my loan, they advised they would be in touch but no one ever returned a call. My family had arranged this with their mortgage companies and no one had issues. I started receiving notices that I was late or not making a payment. I have never been late since then. I have been sending them letters, emails and making phone calls asking for help but they have proven to be heartless. They have now impacted my credit. All other loans have been paid off but they are preventing me now from being able to move forward. I even requested to be able to pay the mortgage payment for XXXX XXXX and the fees be waived but they proved either further to be heartless and not care about their customers. I need to be able to publicize the disgrace and demonstrate how greedy they are. I really need to finance but since this is on my credit I am struggling. Please help me. I have worked relentlessly on ensuring my credit is kept up to par to allow my family and I to have a great life. The records will indicate that I have never been late on my mortgage payments until this was placed on my credit. I do n't understand why they do n't want to work with their customers. At the time, my job was shut down so I was n't paid so I just needed more time. XXXX XXXX XXXX and all other debtors were more than understanding and was happy that I was alive! Nationstar Mortgage did n't care if my family and I survived, they only wanted their mortgage payment.

fraudulent contract, excessive interst, predatory loan, interest rate is against the law per NY State I spoke with a manager concerning my interest rate on this loan taken out XXXX. I was told that because i purchased this vehicle in the state of Texas my interest rate was % 19 I explained to the gentleman that i did not purchase the vehicle in Texas i purchased the vehicle in new York State and that this interest rate was against the law in my state. I spoke with the attorney general office and was advised to notify Santander that the rate and contract was considered predatory lending and my contract also shows that i purchased the vehicle in NY State. i have never been to Texas nor have i ever resided in Texas. this contract is different from what i have however this deal took place over the phone and via bank wire so i do not know what was submitted on santander 's end. I also explained to the attorney general that this is a $ XXXX loan and i still have a balance of $ XXXX that exceeds % 20 interest. at % 20 percent i would have paid $ XXXX in interest and have a balance near $ 16k at this day in time. this figure shows that my interest is over % .30 percent. I was informed of the class action law suit form XXXX XXXX and that my proof of purchase and this interest as well as the fact that this is known as a Simple loan which are not legal in the state of NY makes this contract null and void and per the attorney general i should start this paper trail to provide evidence that this company will do the usual and not remedy this problem. Once i have the evidence that the issue is not resolved knowing that Santander has an illegal contract and terms. To escalate this matter through the attorney generals office and law suit.This interest has caused great hardship and the main reason my payments fell behind.

Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries.

My loan was refinanced under HAMP XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter From Nationstar Mortgage that I qualify for the {$5000.00} principal reduction because I was in my 6th year with no late payments. I just need to fill out the form ( XXXX ) and return it to them. I sent the letter XX/XX/XXXX. By XX/XX/XXXX I did not hear back from Nationstar. A couple more months went by and XX/XX/XXXX I reached to Nationstar and was told it was denied because it was after the deadline of XXXX XXXX. Even though they told they received the letter almost 3 months earlier. Then I spoke to a CSR on the phone they told me I was denied because the form was filled out incorrectly. My wife & and I signed the form, but only put the last XXXX digits of our SS #. Even though we were never contacted or received any correspondence regarding missing information as they stated. the form was received so I sent an email to get a confirmation. They responded saying they received the letter and would contact me if additional information was needed called and emailed Nationstar if my form was received with no response. Finally I got a person in the research department that said it was an error by Nationstar and we would receive the principal credit.Then in next month I received a call regarding refinancing my loan. I asked specifically if I refinance the loan under HARP if it was affect us getting the principal reduction. I was told it would not affect and that Nationstar would either send us a check or deduct the new loan. Now that the loan was refinanced XX/XX/XXXX Nationstar is saying the loan does no qualify because to was paid off. At every turn Nationstar dragged their feet getting me information, answers, the opportunity to correct any errors and flat out lied about the pay incentive program to make money on a refinance I would not have done. If they were doing this to me they have done it to others. This could have been avoided with a simple phone call, email or letter stating it was denied so I could have sent an corrected for which was only missing the beginning of our SS # s.

To do what is fair to me as a consumer, delete and update my credit report as they are reporting inaccurate information that I have made them aware of but still keep reporting! This has caused me multiple denials and mental anguish that I can't even stand. I will not tolerate this anymore and will seek litigation if this is not handled!
