Company: MRS BPO, LLC (GA)

I had a loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX that was sent to MRS BPO for collection. When I became aware of the collection account I reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX to settle the debt and have it stop reporting to my credit report. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX agreed to a " pay-to-delete '' solution for the debt and instructed me to make the payment to MRS BPO. On XX/XX/, I made the payment to MRS BPO and it was posted to my account, I was given a receipt which was also sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. Over a month later the item remains and is reported to my credit report. I reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXX to inquire about why the item is still being reported and to confirm that they received payment confirmation. They did receive confirmation but the item is still reporting and hasn't been removed as previously agreed upon. MRS BPO has also contacted me requesting payment for the same account again even after it was settled on XX/XX/. MRS BPO is now attempting to collect on the same debt, but this time they're using a different account number. I contacted MRS BPO and they stated that the debt came from XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX and they can not do anything about it until it is paid. I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and notified them of what MRS BPO said but they denied sending them the debt and confirmed that the only debt that they did send to MRS BPO has been settled.

On XX/XX/XXXX I filled a merchant dispute ( chargeback request ) through my online banking for merchandize not received. 
I bought XXXX XXXX smartphones ON the store on XX/XX/XXXX, the store didnt have the items on stock at that time so they will send it from their warehouse to my home not later than XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX XXXX 
The merchandize never arrived so I sent this merchant dispute to the bank. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I received 2 letters from the bank issued on the same day, one a document requesting my signature to confirm the claim, and the other saying that my claim was denied because the card was present at the moment of the purchase. 
When the card is in present doesnt mean anything, many stores like XXXX, macys and other dont have all items on stock at the same store, so they will send it from their warehouse, especially expensive smartphones or bigger products like a fridge. In those cases, XXXX also protects the purchase having the opportunity to dispute the purchase If the items dont arrive. 
I provided the invoice showing they will send it and even that the case was denied and didnt investigate anything, the MUST reach the merchants bank to request information from them and documentation proving that they sent the merchandize or if they have any other issues with the order. Something they never did and they didnt follow XXXX procedures and EFTA XXXX

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (SC)

Nationstar mortgage began servicing my loan in 2013 and they tried to escrow my taxes even though I was not - or ever - late on them. I sent them proof of payment of my 2013 taxes but they have persisted trying to pay my taxes with the county every year since. The county I reside in sends their money back. That is, until this year when Nationstar proceeded to pay my taxes early, forcing the county to send my payment back. The problem is that I was in bankruptcy at the time and received no notice of this escrow. So, I kept paying the same mortgage amount every month - on time, as always - and now Nationstar has been applying those payments to a shortage account and says I owe them thousands of dollars to bring the account current. I have tried to pay them back this years property taxes on two different occasions but they returned the payment. They seem insistent on escrowing taxes on this account and I do not want that. I have never been late on them so they have no grounds for this. They will not entertain reversing the escrow until I bring my account " current '' for which it already is - I have been paying the monthly mortgage, although they did send one payment back for some reason. This is very egregious behavior and they do n't seem to want to resolve this. I need help intermediating with them and hoping CFPB can provide this.

Company: MOHELA (OH)

On XX/XX/2023 Mohela sent me a message that my auto-pay would debited in XX/XX/2023. However, they never sent me a billing statement. Per their own conditions of the resuming of payments, billing statements were supposed to be sent at least 3 weeks before the payment is due. I contacted them and am being told that because I'm on auto-pay I won't receive a billing statement, I will only receive a notification of when my auto-debit will occur. This is nowhere in their terms and conditions and is completely unacceptable. They should not be debiting money when they refuse to send a bill.
