Product: Debt collection — Mortgage debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Seized or attempted to seize your property
Company: Flagstar Bank, N.A. (PA)

I am currently in default ( missed 2 payments ) with mortgage company ( Flag Star Bank-Mortgage ). I am being harassed, discriminated again and violation of mortgage contract. The property has been up for sale since XX/XX/XXXX and Flag Star was advised of this. The property is still on sale and has a sale sign out front on the lawn. On XX/XX/XXXX, I came home to a note on my door by XXXX XXXX ( a property preservation company hired by Flag Star ). The note stated they were informed that the property was vacate and will be sealed or winterize if no contact is made within 3 days. I called XXXX XXXX and was advised that I needed to contact the Bank. I contacted the bank and advise them that I still reside in the property and that it is currently for sale. They advised me that, because I am default, I will still receive phone calls, mailings and visits but they will document that the property is up for sale. On XX/XX/XXXX. I was advised by my next door neighbor ( I was at work ), that there was a truck in my drive way and was I expecting anyone. I told her no. She stated she will see what's going on as the truck and 2 men did not have any company logo on but she seen them walking around my house. When my neighbor went outside and looked, she didnt see the men. She than ring the door bell and 1 male answered. She advise them that my neighbor lives here and did not authorize anyone in her home. The male stated the bank told them to come here but since someone is occupying the property that they were leaving, they don't want to be involved. I called the police and advised them of the matter. The police advise me that it was a civil matter. However, they contacted the company regarding the matter. I also contacted the bank and advise them of the situation. The rep told me no one was supposed to go into the property but that I will continue to have visits, mailings and phone calls because of the default. XXXX, also contacted me and stated they have documented that I called XX/XX/XXXX. However, the bank never contacted them confirming that I occupy the property. They also stated they took pictures of my home and that it " looked nice ''. When I came home that evening, lights were left on, cabinet doors left opened and I still do not know how the 2 men from XXXX entered my home ( w/o my authorization ). I am in fear that I will continue to be harassed and that one day I may come home and the property is seized w/o proper authorization.

I've talked to the bank & they've agreed to remove the accounts. BUT TransUnion has some internal block which they're claiming they can use to not block the accounts because they feel they're above the law. When questioned why they're not accepting the pdispute letter they claim they have an internal policy ( which is OUTSIDE FCRA laws ) & they're unwilling to explain why they won't accept the dispute letter ( which is a FEDERAL LAW ). So TransUnion feels they're above the letter of the law & will not explain their policy... I discovered that some of the information on my credit report was incorrect when I reviewed it. Sections 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) require the TrnasUnion credit bureau to validate this account ( A ), as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Disclosures to consumers [ 15 U.S.C. 1681g ] ( ( a ) Information on file ; sources ; report recipients. TransUnion shall, upon request, and subject to 610 ( a ) ( 1 ) [ 1681h ], clearly and accurately disclose to the consumer. If the consumer to whom the file relates requests that the first XXXX digits of the social security number ( or similar identification number ) of the consumer not be included in the disclosure and the consumer reporting agency has received appropriate proof of the identity of the requester, the consumer reporting agency shall so truncate such number in such disclosure. & XXXXection 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Procedure in case of disputed accuracy [ 15 U.S.C. 1681i ] ( a ) Reinvestigations of Disputed Information. If the completeness or accuracy of any items of information contained in a my file at TransUnion is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the agency directly, or indirectly through a creditor, the Bureaus shall, free of charge, conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate and record the current status of the disputed information, or delete the items from my file in accordance with paragraph ( XXXX ), before the end of the XXXX period beginning on the date on which the agency receives the notice of the dispute from the consumer or creditor. It is not permissible to fail to validate this reporting account as unverified information without providing any proof within the time frame specified by law.
