Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Flagstar Bank, National Association (VA)

New York Community Bank transferred my loan to another servicer XXXX XXXX Mortgage XXXX without providing me adequate notice ( less than 15 days XXXX. When I called XXXX to request more time to access and retrieve my records about Escrow Payments, Insurance Payments, and Annual Interest paid, they were unwilling to help me in any way. They reiterated that in 10 days I will lose all access to their system. The new servicer does not have any of my records yet, and could not promise that they would be in place by XXXX when my XXXX account will become inactive. I asked if they could mail me documentation or allow me to extract my records in PDF format, and XXXX said that they would do nothing for me, and were completely uninterested in speaking with me - eventually, the person on the other end of the phone just went silent and stopped speaking to me. I expressed my concern that this was creating a lot of stress and extra work for me in a very short window, and that I had concerns about my ability to pay my taxes without records to support or dispute a XXXX from the bank - again, complete silence on the other end of the phone. New York Community Bank should not be allowed to treat customer this way - presumably they are transferring my loan because of some benefit to the Bank, so I am suffering for their benefit. I was a model customer, I never made a payment late, or caused any additional costs or concerns for the bank during the life of the loan, and now they are violating the guidelines for a transfer and incurring me additional costs, so they can benefit.

These accounts have been transferred or sold. According to my findings, I am no longer responsible for this alleged debt, there is also no written communication, contract, or signature. A bill without a signature does not imply that the debt is legitimate, and anyone may submit a bill and claim ownership.

Also, stated in the HIPPA law section 1681b ( g ) ( 4 ) you are not allowed to disclose any of my medical information this is clearly a violation to my privacy. delete it from my report immediately.

Im honestly stumped. Regardless of how many times I claim to be the individual writing this letter it seems this message is truly missed. For the record, Im the one whos initiating these disputes under MY NAME. The following items are UNKNOWN to ME. I dont get why youre claiming this is fraudulent or of a high risk nature. The documents Ive provided are legit. This is mine, filed with the appropriate agencies & support my position. Lets get the record straight!!! First of all I know that under FCRA Section 619 Obtaining information under false pretenses that any person who knowingly and willfully obtains information on a consumer from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses shall be fined under title 18 United States Code, imprisoned for not more than 2 years, or both. Most importantly, Ive never sent my documentation to anyone else which seems to be claim constitutes high- risk due to potential fraud. According to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 3 ) Determination That Dispute Is Frivolous or Irrelevant ( A ) a consumer reporting agency may terminate a reinvestigation of information disputed by a consumer under that paragraph if the agency reasonably determines that the dispute by the consumer is frivolous or irrelevant, including by reason of a failure by a consumer to provide sufficient information to investigate the disputed information. ( B ) Notice of determination. Upon making any determination in accordance with subparagraph ( A ) that a dispute is frivolous or irrelevant, a consumer reporting agency shall notify the consumer of such determination not later than 5 business days after making such determination, by mail or, if authorized by the consumer for that purpose, by any other means available to the agency. Again, under 617 Civil liability for negligent noncompliance [ 15 U.S.C. 1681o ] Any person who is negligent in failing to comply with any requirement imposed under this title with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure; and ( 2 ) in the case of any successful action to enforce any liability under this section, the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court. Here is the list of item which is UNKNOWN to me : XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/2014 Balance : $ XXXX

Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Didn't receive advertised or promotional terms
Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA (NE)

I received a Promotional offer in XXXX of this year for my XXXX XXXX XXXX from the Issuer, Goldman Sachs Bank. The offer was for XXXX Bonus points when you spend {$200.00} thru XX/XX/23. I have attached a copy of an email I received from Goldman Sachs describing the promo after I had already registered for it in XXXX. 

There were XXXX transaction postings to my account during XXXX but before XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX. XX/XX/23 - Sale at XXXX XXXX XXXX : {$39.00} XXXX. XX/XX/23 - Payment : {$39.00} XXXX. XX/XX/23 - Sale at XXXX XXXX store : {$370.00} XXXX. XX/XX/23 - Payment : {$370.00} After the end of XXXX, I looked for the XXXX point Rewards credit on my XXXX statement, but did not see it. When I called Golden Sachs, the agent could not answer my question and asked me to submit a written request so they could research it, which I did. 

Today on XX/XX/23, I received a call from a customer service agent at Goldman Sachs. She advised that I did not qualify for the promotion because any Returns or Payments that posted to my account would have been subtracted from the Spend total that would count towards the Rewards Promotion. I told her I definitely understand Returns being subtracted, but subtracting Payments ( thus making them count against a cardholder ) makes no sense. By doing that, Goldman Sachs is penalizing cardholders for keeping their accounts current and/or paying more than the Min Pay Due. I also told her that was not disclosed in the Promotion.

The customer service agent was adamant that is how the Promo is supposed to work, and offered to walk me thru their Rewards Terms & Conditions to prove it. She pulled up her copy and I followed along online using a link in my online account. She read thru every section tied to Rewards Offers/Promos and there was absolutely nothing even close to stating that Payments would be subtracted from the amount used to calculate Spend ; but she still stuck to her guns, stating it would fall under other terms & conditions. 

I was reminded at the beginning and throughout the call that we were being recorded, so our entire conversation is on a call recording at Goldman Sachs.
