I would like to address the crucial regulations safeguarding consumers under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). These regulations ensure equitable treatment, privacy protection, and accuracy of credit information. Section 602 ( a ) of the FCRA mandates that entities collecting and reporting consumer information must adhere to principles of fairness, neutrality, and privacy, encompassing well-known entities like Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX. As an individual subject to their data collection, I retain the right to safeguard my privacy. Furthermore, Section 6801 reinforces Congress 's intent for financial institutions supplying data to credit agencies to uphold the security of personal information. 

The FCRA also outlines the necessity for written consent prior to the dissemination of consumer information by credit agencies, as delineated in Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ). However, I have not provided written consent to Equifax, XXXX, or XXXX, contravening this requirement. Moreover, Section 6802 ( b ) ( c ) stipulates that financial institutions must inform consumers of their right to opt out of information sharing, a requirement that has not been fulfilled in my case. 

Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX have reported adverse information about me without obtaining my consent, a violation of Section 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) of the FCRA. Additionally, Section 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) prohibits the dissemination of knowingly inaccurate information, which appears to have occurred in this instance. 

Furthermore, the FCRA mandates that these entities establish robust procedures to ensure compliance with the law, as outlined in Section 1681e. Unfortunately, it appears that Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX have failed to implement adequate measures, resulting in inaccurate information being included in my credit report. 

Consequently, I am formally requesting that they cease sharing my information, as permitted by 12 CFR 1016.7. Additionally, I demand the immediate removal of all erroneous entries from my credit report. Failure to adhere to these requests may warrant legal action for willful non-compliance with FCRA regulations.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc. (TN)

I paid my mortgage through the online services of my mortgage company, 5 days before it was due. 11 days later, the mortgage company sent me an email notice ( after I had received a payment confirmation ) saying I had not paid my bill. And adding a XXXX  dollar late bill. 

I called them, and they said my bank had rejected my payment for lack of funds. My account did have adequate funds, and the bank ( XXXX XXXX ) stated they had NOT rejected any payments on my account. 

I called the lender back, and asked them what account they had tried to charge the payment to, and they couldn't, or wouldn't tell me, so there is no way for me to know what account they attempted to charge the payment to. I asked what I should do, and they recommended I make a payment over the phone, either by automated phone call, or through one of their phone agents. Then I found out they make extra charges, to pay the bill, by phone! XXXX dollars, and XXXX dollars respectively! 

The company, is " Mr. Cooper ''. We also had problems with my first payment, sent by check. They didn't credit my payment for several weeks! 

These practices are not acceptable, and have become very stressful to me. Thank you.
