Issue: Incorrect information on credit report — Account terms
Company: Professional Credit Management, Inc (AR)

I have disputed this account with the Credit Bureaus as well as Professional Credit Management. I disputed this account with Professional Credit Management on 2 occasions and on each occasion, they were unable to provide copies of documents sent to me regarding my account and any papers that bear my original signature that reflect that I agreed to pay what they say I owe. Each letter they sent said they validated the name and address ; however, validation of an accounted they are claiming I owe them consists of providing substantiating information to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that this account indeed belongs to me See attached letters I sent them as well as the letters they sent in response which as I have stated above DO NOT VALIDATE THE DEBT. I have never heard of this company nor have I ever did business with them. I have never signed any contracts nor had any obligation to them. This item is not 100 % accurate ( Collection accounts have no terms, so why are they reporting a term of 1 month if I never signed any contract or agreement with them, nor is it verifiable ; therefore, this items should be deleted from my report immediately.

I was recently made aware of a current lawsuit against a collection company known as EOS CCA located in XXXX, MA. They currently have an open account from XXXX XXXX XXXX as of XXXX XXXX, XXXX for a balance of {$220.00} established in XXXX. I have in the past disputed this account and then eventually paid it in XXXX. Of course that was with a different bank account I had back then with no proof of payment.

Company: Nationwide Biweekly Administration, Inc. (OR)

XXXX program sent XXXX e-mails to us in two days with our account number, but someone else 's name, indicating that they are suspending our mortgage payment program. They indicated that their banks have stopped handling the mortgage deductions. They did take payments XXXX XXXX for the XXXX XXXX payments on our first and second mortgages. We are told that we must make the XXXX payments ourselves. We called the company and asked about fee refunds. They said the account is only suspended and not closed, so they are not refunding fees. We feel that we have been scammed and given only part of the story. We want to protect ourselves in this situation. What action of the CFPB caused the banks to stop supporting the XXXX XXXX program? Will the program be resuming as indicated in our call to them? If it will resume, when might that happen? Can we trust the information coming from the company?

Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION (AL)

I have a {$500.00} revolving line of credit with Regions Bank. I am in the process of trying to close on a condo, so I paid {$300.00} last month and yesterday, XXXX/XXXX/2015, the account had a balance of {$190.00} in which I made a payment of {$200.00}. This a.m. I went into the branch to try to get an update statement showing the {$200.00} payment with a available credit of {$500.00}. Unfortunately, the XXXX branch manager could not produce an updated statement showing this payment and available credit. Unfortunately, I discovered Regions had assessed a {$37.00} paid in full fee and was able to produce a statement showing only this transaction. I also noticed that on this {$500.00} revolving account, Regions had " willy nilly '' assessed a ton of fees to this account throughout the time I have had this account. 


ANOTHER SEPARATE COMPLAINT : As I overpaid this account by {$2.00} ( stated as a credit on statement and refunded back to me at a branch ) when I paid account in full and requested an updated statement ; however, today, XXXX XXXX, 2015, I received a statement from Regions Bank treating the {$2.00} overpayment I made as a cash advance and has charged my XXXX balance account {$10.00} with {$1.00} in interest. Just criminal.

Dear PayPal Customer Support Team, I am writing to express my strong dissatisfaction with the permanent limitation placed on my PayPal account with the email address XXXX. I believe that this limitation has been placed by mistake, and I would like to submit a formal complaint to appeal this PayPal decision. 

I would like to emphasize that I have not violated any PayPal policies or engaged in any activities that warrant such a severe action. Therefore, I would like to kindly request PayPal to re-investigate my case thoroughly and restore my account if possible. 

As a long-standing PayPal user, I have always followed PayPal 's policies and procedures and have never faced any issues with my account. Therefore, I am confident that this limitation is a result of a mistake, and I urge you to re-evaluate the situation carefully. 

I understand the importance of maintaining the integrity of the PayPal platform and the need to take swift action against any policy violations. However, in my case, I have not committed any such violations, and I am confident that a re-investigation will prove my innocence. 

In light of the above, I respectfully request that you conduct a thorough investigation of my account and restore it as soon as possible. I hope that this issue can be resolved promptly and efficiently, and I look forward to a positive resolution of this matter. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I have asked for this company to validate debt with my signature on a legally binding contract between their company and me. They have failed to provide me with this information. I spoke to them on the phone on a recorded line and they said they do not have that info. Since they do not have that I do not owe a dime to this company. With this being said they are fraudulently reporting to the credit Bureau. 

I also requested the name, number, and any other contact info of the person who " validated '' that I owe this debt. This information has not been received or provided in their responses.

Company: Lend Smart Mortgage, LLC (AZ)

I worked as loan officer/branch manager for LendSmart mortgage in XXXX AZ. 
They did not pay me my comp plan, they were charging me for " branch " expenses and pay me what was left over .They were running NET branch which is illegal .When I tried to resolve that with them they emailed me that they would not pay me what was still owed to me and they did not even 6 months after I resigned. They also requested in order to be paid what was left over to sign agreement that I am waiving my right to come back and ask for even adjustment if numbers were not correct. At that point I did not sign anything because their accounting was horrible and they had mistakes pretty much on every pay period .They would not pay me and after we " resolve '' discrepancy it will be another reason for not paying. I did not want to sign agreement because I believed what they did was not right and by rules but they were ones that holds my paycheck and they could do anything they want. This company simple should not be in business at all. They also when I resigned email me that if I do not sign same paperwork they would not pay me at all due for me breaching a contract and violating some rules even they never write me up fro anything and never told me about that either until that day.

Went to Chase bank for a refi. Only Bc of divorce and I need it out of my ex 's name. I only owe 14 years. The original loan was XXXX. I only wanted to refi the balance of XXXX. For 15 years. They took my XXXX. I gave them all the info requested. I have a credit score of XXXX/XXXX. They then need me to come in an sign a letter the mortgage person typed up. Stating that I live in my Condo. Bc I recently married. They had my husband fill out papers as cosigned when I do n't need it. They then asked for a 3 way call with my bank, I was 3 months ahead on my home loan in XXXX. Then they did it again fot a XXXX balance on my XXXX card. Then they had my husband do the same with his bank. Then they call us and make a offer for a higher interest rate then what we agreed on. A whole percent higher. Said they did n't believe I lived there. I said go there my clothes are there ask the management company. They refused and called me a liar. In fact she hung up on me. So I am out of the {$410.00} for the Loan. I can payoff the loan we have in money markets. But the unscubluous practice of Chase bank taking money and then changing the terms to get a higher rate is wrong and should be address. After thinking about it one day I went down to the front desk and asked our security do you keep records of my fob to get in and out of the building he said yes but he did n't know how far back it went. He went back to XXXX 2014. It shows every time I enter or left the building. He printed me a copy of my entrance and exits. I took them to my local bank and showed her and she said she would have the local manager call me. I got nothing from them. I called and left messages with the state of Fla area XXXX XXXX. He never returned my call. I would n't want a loan from them now if they gave it to me. I removed XXXX from my accounts there. And put it in my XXXX credit union. But I feel I should get my {$410.00}. They sent us through all kinds of unnecessary info and we provided it. We did on our end everything and was turned down. Chase should be penalized for taking people money. Yes make it know to everyone do not use Chase to do a refi or get a loan. Please feel free to call me. XXXX typed the letter at the bank and had us sign it. I have XXXX other investment properties that are rented out and I understand about investment and I put my XXXX % down years ago. Why would I rent out my home downtown where I love? Either way property appraiser has already dropped by and inspected for himself. I have his card.

On XXXX the XXXX my car loan company accidentally double charged my account. I contacted them and they refunded the funds well by Wednesday the XXXX these funds were still pending.

That never happened, I called rush card and I held for over an hour finally a lady came on I explained again what happened she then called my auto loan company on XXXX way and was told they already refunded the amount and on their end it was adjusted and closed she even gave the transaction number. The rep assured once again that the funds should post with in the hour. I went to make a purchase XXXX hours later and my card declined. I called back held for another XXXX hours she then told me she escalated the issue and the funds will show available. Again no money has posted of course I call back held for another hour only to hear the guy did n't have access to the system and after he offered a supervisor rudely hung up on me. It 's wrong and unfair it 's been over the time frame they gave and I still do n't have my money which means bills ca n't get paid and o ca n't make purchases to take care of my children. Rush card customer service if rude absAnd unpleasant I have been patient but this is over board.
