Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (FL)

A charge off is considered a certificate of indebtedness which means it is income and must be removed. 

Account XXXX XXXX I recently came across information related to charged-off amounts and their implications under the Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ) regulations.

According to the IRS Article, a charge-off is considered a certificate of indebtedness, which means it is treated as income and, therefore, eligible for removal from the records. In light of this information, I kindly request Capital One 's assistance in reviewing the status of the charged-off amount associated with my account.

Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (NJ)

I have my mortgage currently with Nationstar Mortgage. In XX/XX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX, I was notified by Nationstar that my policy needed a floodi insurance policy attached and that if I did not provide proper documentation they would buy for me and charge me accordingly. XX/XX/XXXX, I faxed a policy overview of flood insurance my HOA had secured for its tenants and for which I paid for already. When I called the Nationstar customer service to confirm they received my fax, I was told I sent only XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX and then needed XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX as well. So I sent the requested proof to them in the same month. Skip forward to XX/XX/XXXX and I am told that my monthly premium is increasing XXXX dollars per month. I called the customer service because I was quite alarmed. The rep told me that it was Nationstar 's policy to hold 2 times the escrow amount in my escrow account for safekeeping. TWO TIMES. I told my friends and family this since I was upset and they told me that it was completely unreasonable and I should fight it. I called Nationstar again in XX/XX/XXXX to find out again why it was going up {$300.00}. The rep this time told me that I was misinformed and that they only withhold 2 MONTHS worth of escrow for safekeeping - fine, but still why the extra {$300.00} a month? After much searching we find out that they were withholding for flood insurance. The very same insurance I had provided proof I already had through my HOA. I told the rep that I had sent 2 faxes. The rep said he found the first one from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. I said I definitely sent a 2nd one for the current year and to check. He said that he found it but no one had updated the system to say that I had flood insurance and that Nationstar did not have to add it to my account. So I have been overcharged for someone 's mistake. And they told me they can fix the error but it will take 30 days to be corrected. So I asked technically for my next payment I will still have to pay the overcharged payment? They told me yes, but after the they reanalyze my escrow, my payment would most likely decrease since I have been overpaying.. I asked if they will reanalyze automatically when the money returns to my account. The rep, XXXX, told me that I would have to CALL THEM TO REMIND THEM BASICALLY TO THEIR JOB. Incredulous! 
I am now waiting for my refund.

I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

Despite numerous efforts to address this issue, the late open accounts remains, causing unwarranted harm to my creditworthiness and overall financial standing.

Despite my persistent efforts, the late open accounts persists on my credit report, causing undue financial stress. I understand the importance of accurate reporting for both consumers and creditors and am disappointed that my concerns have not been appropriately addressed. 

I urgently request that you conduct an immediate and thorough investigation into this matter and promptly correct the late open accounts on my credit report. Additionally, I expect a detailed written response within 30 days of receiving this complaint, outlining the steps taken to resolve the inaccuracy. 

If my concerns are not addressed within the specified timeframe, I will be left with no choice but to escalate this matter by filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and seeking legal advice.

Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (NV)

I have a first mortgage with Mr. Cooper ( formerly Nationstar Mortgage ).  For all ofXX/XX/XXXX my monthly payment was {$1700.00}. I was recently informed that my payment would increase to {$2100.00}, effective immediately. When I spoke to a Mr. Cooper representative, I was told that the escrow had increased due to an insurance increase. But my insurance premium ( with XXXX XXXX ) has not changed from XX/XX/XXXX. I was also told that there was an escrow shortage forXX/XX/XXXXand XX/XX/XXXXwhich I was then paying down monthly. They could not explain why the shortage ( 2 years in a row ) occurred, since they are supposed to determine the escrow payment to not create a shortage. In addition to this latest increase, I have been trying to get any paperwork, like a mortgage agreement, from Mr. Cooper, but all they could provide me with was the original loan documents from XXXX XXXX XXXX, the original lender when I purchased the house in XX/XX/XXXXThe mortgage has been sold twice so far, and I 've never agreed in writing to any changes in terms or mortgage details. I do know, however, that the principal balance on the loan has literally not changed in years. I 'm not sure if I need to hire a lawyer, but I 'm hoping that the CFPB can offer some assistance and advise. 
Thank you.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (MA)

I applied for the Amex Delta SkyMiles Gold credit card on XX/XX/, with an opening bonus of XXXX miles after spending {$2000.00}. However, after several months when I met the spending criteria, I still didn't get the bonus. I communicated a lot of times with Amex and they told me I'm not qualified for this bonus. However, this is not true : 1. I successfully opened it with the bonus. 2. I didn't have this card ever. Thus, I should be qualified. The most important thing, if I'm not qualified, they should notify me before approving my application.

I have contacted CFPB to communicate with AMEX, and the response letter showed fake information claiming that : During your online application you were advised Based on your history with Credit Card balance transfers, American Express welcome offers, introductory APR offers, or the number of Cards you have opened and closed, you are not eligible to receive the welcome offer. Would you like to proceed? However, during the online application, I have never been advertised with this statement. The fact is I have been welcomed by the opening bonus. 

So this response really hurt my heart and I'm very sad about Amex.
