Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Loan
Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease — Problem with paying off the loan
Company: LOBEL FINANCIAL CORPORATION (CA)

Brief history : I purchased a car on XXXX. I had an issue in XX/XX/XXXX and dropped off two payment at the office on XXXX XXXX in XXXX. It was not recorded until XXXX. Reporting that I was late with XXXX payment. At that time I requested DUE DATE CHANGE. Didn't really have and issues until XXXX. XXXX happened to MY ENTIRE. My father and sister passed away in XXXX. When I called to make arrangement I was told that my account was very delinquent. I explained I don't know how that is possible when I pay more than is required. I told that my payments were late every month. I explained that I requested a payment due date change years ago. I was doing everything in my power to take care of the situation to no avail. In XXXX my account was closed and charged off. The amount stated due at that time was {$3500.00}. I was attempting to pay it months later and I realized that it had increased as of XXXX {$3900.00}. So from XX/XX/XXXX- XX/XX/XXXX it increased {$370.00}. I didn't have the extra {$370.00}. So, over time it continued to increase. During this time I never received anything about what was owed. I had requested documentation many times over the years to no avail ( I did get letters saying they were charging me for no Insurance though ) So I stopped asking as it was increasing stress causing physical health issues/ XXXX to flare. All the while working on coming up with the payoff so I can get the Title to the car. 

Current issue : On XXXX I checked my credit report it has currently a balance of {$4500.00} reported on XXXX I contacted Lobel to make the payment in the amount of {$4500.00}. It hasn't been a month since they reported that amount of {$4500.00} and I was told that I owe {$5300.00} that it increased {$830.00} in less than a month AND THAT THE ACCOUNT WAS NOT CLOSED OR CHARGED OFF. I was told that I had to pay that amount in full. And my car was in repo status. I was trying to pay the {$4500.00} even though I was charged fees that I didn't know about as I had most often paid more than amount due in efforts to pay it off early. From XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX IT INCREASED BY {$340.00}. Then in less then a month it increased {$830.00}. I will attached evidence of documentation from credit report that have no identifying information and can provide the copy with identifying information if required ( ALSO HAVE AUDIO OF CALLS from XXXX and XXXX where I tried to make the payment of {$4500.00}. I have other calls documented but it will take some time to locate them. Speaking with XXXX XXXX on XXXX I was told that it is not supposed to increase after it's been charged off and closed when I was attempting to locate documentation of the increases. I also have the recording from that call as well. ) Which is why I was trying to pay the {$4500.00} that reported on my credit. I definitely feel there is fraud happening here.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (DC)

XX/XX/2021 I entered an uninformed decision with XXXX XXXX Account XXXX. As a creditor they took advantage of me thus committing fraud. 
Pursuant 15 US Code 1601 ( a ) in order for me to make a decision I must be informed i.e., it takes two CONSENTING parties to make an agreement. Any agreement put in place should be clear and conspicuous ( Pursuant 15 US Code 1602 ( a ) -- which you all have failed to provide. A 30-page computer generated agreement is not clear nor conspicuous and thus you could not expect a consumer to reasonably know its meaning. There is no evidence of indebtedness as a clear and conspicuous agreement was never put in place thus making this transaction null and void ( k ). You all are reporting a past due amount on a closed account which is not possible if the account is no longer active. You all sold the alleged debt to another company without my permission and never provided me with that information.

You all are illegally furnishing income to my credit and never provided me with a 1099C associated with this account. Pursuant FCRA laws once the debt was sold to a third party you all lost permission to report anything to my consumer report. I believe an amicable resolution for all parties is to update the credit bureaus with the removal of this account. Please note all three bureaus have been put on notice of your frivolous actions as well as your state attorney general and the federal reserve. To all three bureaus I am sure your legal team will agree this account needs to be remover from my report immediately.

This is my last intent to resolve the issue at hand before moving forward with legal proceedings. I expect a response to this notice within thirty days and would highly appreciate your cooperation.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY (MD)

I inadvertently sent two mortgage payments for XX/XX/2022. As soon as I realized my error, I called TD Bank to request a refund of the duplicate payment. Although customer service tried to talk me into letting them hold the money for the XXXX payment, I insisted I wanted a refund. I knew not to trust them when they didn't offer to wire my refund. They are a large financial institution, after all, aren't they? I was told to expect the refund on XX/XX/XXXX. When it didn't arrive, I first checked my account to see if TD Bank had applied my refund to my XXXX payment. They had not so I called TD Bank again to inquire about my refund. Again, customer service tried to talk me into letting them hold the money for the XXXX payment and I made it clear I wanted my money back. I was told it would take 10 days to process. When the check hadn't arrived as promised, I checked my account to see if TD Bank had applied the duplicated payment. My account only showed the payments I had made in XXXX as well as XXXX. I called TD Bank again and was told to expect my refund on XX/XX/XXXX. It is still not here. I will not call them again because it is obvious they are not respecting my request to send to me my money. The amount is {$2100.00}. Their comment about applying a duplicate payment to the next month is false because it assumes everyone has lots of extra money laying around. Also, if they were to apply the duplicate payment to the next month, it would be done early in the month so it would not be late. This incurs another question- why are they holding my money and not applying it to the next month 's payment as they say they will? It is bad enough that I had to pay {$250.00} in bounced check fees! They've had more than 60 days to make this right. 
I had had a mortgage with XXXX XXXX with my previous home and they became known as the poster child for fishy mortgages. It looks like TDBANK is a top contender now for this, er, honor. Although I have no idea the number of customers who send duplicate payments in error, it is nothing new, and taking advantage of this is extremely shady. Their online mortgage payment processing system is also convoluted which is also suspect. While waiting for my bank to update it's bill payment system, I used TDBANKS to pay my mortgage. It's cumbersome, convoluted and one has to be routed through a number of customer service numbers to make any changes to mortgage payments. I stay on top of my bills and had forgotten I had initiated my mortgage through the TDBANK system, hence the snafu. I'll register another complaint about their bill pay system if you ask me to. 
I appreciate the time you take to look into this.
