Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: MOHELA (MA)

Mohela is coming up with a loan amount over double what their calculator states it should be. I have requested multiple times what they are using to determine this number and they aren't responding with this information. They are giving a lot of nothing in their response letters. I would like this to be escalated to the ombudsman. This has been months. I have also asked them to call me to discuss, but they just want me to call and spend hours on the phone on hold, or get disconnected when it should be transferred to a rep and then have to call all over again. Also there is nowhere on their website that has the numbers they are using to determine this inflated amount of monthly payment, this isn't transparent and fraudulent.

Dear Sir or Maam, It is my third time writing a letter to your company. I recently conducted a review of my credit report, and I noticed 1st Franklin Financial put several credit inquiries on credit report that I find to be problematic. 
I know they are not mine, and they are fraudulent, but I dont have ( 30 ) thirty days to wait on an investigation, which I know I will win. I need to remove these inquiries very soon so I can get my V. A. loan for my house, please? 
I have no recollection of doing any business with your company in my life. I got an auto financed with XXXX XXXX, I watched the finance manager called this company, and I saw him send my application to this one company only. 
I contacted your company and asked you all to take action and get these inquiries removed from all three credit bureaus. Your employees assured me they would comply with my request and take whatever steps necessary to resolve this issue. It is my last result. 
I wanted to file this as well and make sure this gets done. 
I am begging your company. Please investigate this and have these inquiries removed at your earliest possible convenience. I am applying for another home mortgage this week. 
I would very much like to have the assurance my credit score is showing an accurate depiction of my creditworthiness. 
Please update me with a full report on your findings soon, and I am begging. I look forward to having this situation rectified as soon as possible. 
Thanks for your prompt attention to this matter, XXXX. XXXX XXXX

Also, I demand transparency regarding the steps being taken to address this issue and a clear timeline for its resolution. MoreoverI request compensation for the inconvenience, stress, and potential financial harm caused by the presence of this incorrect late open account on my credit report.

Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (CA)

Our mortgage was bought and sold XXXX times by various companies. The current owner, Nationstar Mortgage, recalculated our payments and even though we NEVER MISSED A PAYMENT ( even paid more on principal every month since the inception of the loan ) they charged us fees, penalties, and interest that they themselves could not explain. We hired an attorney to understand what we were being charged for and he ultimately told us he could n't talk to anyone who could explain it, show a proper accounting of the " recalculation '', and could not even begin to figure it out. The attorney thought that we had been " swindled '' for XXXX of dollars through devious and deceptive accounting methods. In fact, Nationstar Mortgage could not even provide us with an amortization schedule of our loan to this day! On top of this, we have a red flag on our credit as having missed payments when we NEVER missed a payment and ALWAYS PAID EARLY and above the required payment. To date, we are convinced that their " recalculation ( s ) have cost of XXXX of dollars ( if not XXXX ) which they can not explain in words or figures. If a lawyer can not help us then we felt we had no alternative but seek help from your agency. The transference ( Sale ) of our mortgage to Nationstar Mortgage Company from XXXX Bank has been a nightmare from the inception and has cost us more than just money. We need help and intervention for a full explanation and accounting from this company. 
We thank you for your help.

I am a hardworking individual has been diligently paying my accounts on time for the quite a long time. However, upon reviewing my credit report, I discover several instances of late payments recorded by these creditors. Perplexed by this discrepancy, I contacted these creditors to inquire about the inaccuracies. After discussing the matter with a customer service representative and the billing department, it becomes evident that there was a mutual agreement between me and these creditors to adjust the payment schedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Despite adhering to this adjusted schedule, the payments were mistakenly marked as late in the system. Understanding the gravity of the situation, these creditors swiftly acknowledge the error and assures me that the inaccurate late payments will be rectified. Additionally, they offer to provide written documentation of the agreed-upon payment schedule to prevent any future misunderstandings.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (MA)

I have already sent a letter addressing the inaccuracies and unknown items on my credit report, but unfortunately, I have not received any response even after 30 days. It feels like I'm being taken advantage of and my disputes are being ignored. According to Section 611 ( a ), if these items are not investigated within 30 days, they should be promptly removed from my credit report. Since it has been over 30 days, I expect these accounts to be updated immediately. If not, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action due to the stress this situation has caused me. Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

Complaint Regarding Credit Report Inaccuracies Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a complaint regarding inaccurate information on my credit report. I have been actively disputing these inaccuracies with the credit bureaus, but they have failed to adequately investigate my claims or remove the incorrect information. In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I attached the PDF file below containing the list of items that have violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681.

Credit Bureau stated everything was complete and accurate. But how is that possible if the open date, date of last activity and much more is incorrect. According to 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ), they are supposed to modify or delete accounts that aren't reporting correctly.

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

I also believe that the credit bureaus have violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by failing to : 1. Investigate my disputes in a timely and reasonable manner : The credit bureaus have not provided a clear explanation for their decision not to remove the inaccurate information, and I believe their investigation was inadequate.

2. Furnish accurate information to creditors : The inaccurate information on my credit report is harming my ability to obtain credit and other financial services.

3. Follow the FCRA 's dispute resolution procedures : The credit bureaus have failed to comply with the timeframes and procedures outlined in the FCRA.

I am requesting that the CFPB investigate my complaint and take the following actions : 1. Order the credit bureaus to remove the inaccurate information from my credit report.

2. Require the credit bureaus to provide me with a copy of my updated credit report reflecting the changes.

Enclosures : Copies of my credit reports Copies of my dispute letters Copies of any supporting documentation I provided to the credit bureaus

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (VA)

In XX/XX/2023, Bank of America sent me a credit card bill in the amount of {$1600.00}. I promptly paid the bill on XX/XX/2023. Shortly afterwards the bank closed my account. I then received a refund on the closed credit card account in the amount of {$1600.00}. This amount now shows as a credit of {$1600.00} on the account. 

I contacted the bank about 2 months ago and an associate told me that since the account is closed, the bank will issue me a check to pay me back {$1600.00} ( Case number XXXX ). However, I received a mailed response from Bank of America on XX/XX/2023 informing me that they can't return my credit card payment with no explanation for not returning my money. 

Adding a layer of gravity to this financial saga is my ongoing battle with a severe illness spanning XXXX arduous years. This health struggle has introduced unforeseen financial burdens, making the bank 's refusal to return my money not just disappointing but morally questionable. 

Let it be underscored Bank of America 's actions tread the murky waters of Unfair, Deceptive, and Abusive ( UDAAP ) standards. This maneuver inflicts substantial financial injury upon the consumer, corroding the foundation of consumer confidence and casting a shadow over the integrity of the financial marketplace. The refusal to rectify a situation that is both morally and ethically imperative is a testament to the dire need for reevaluation and accountability within our financial institutions. Thank you.

The conspicuous lack of concrete evidence substantiating its reliability, coupled with the circulation of unverified information, constitutes a flagrant violation of the statutory provisions outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). Such regulatory non-compliance is not merely disconcerting but also vexing, considering the paramount importance of adherence to legal mandates. Consequently, I emphatically endorse the prompt deletion of this account in alignment with the stipulated regulations, unless credible evidence is promptly furnished to affirm its authenticity. The failure to promptly rectify this matter further compounds the exasperation stemming from the disregard for legal protocols.
