Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CA)

I was a with DSNB MACYS customer since XXXX and during that time, I have enjoyed my experience greatly. I am writing to see if you would be willing to make a " goodwill '' adjustment to your reporting to the three credit agencies. I have late payment on the above referenced account ( XX/XX/XXXX ). Since that time I was an exceptional customer paying every month on time. Because of my exceptional payment history over the last years, I would like you to consider removing the negative payments from my credit report. At the time of the late payments, I was in the process of changing jobs. I say that not to justify why the payments were late, but rather to show that the late payments are not a good indicator of my actual credit worthiness.

Company: AXOS FINANCIAL, INC. (CA)

Loan was included in my XXXX  XXXX that was XXXX by the court as of 2018. 
I have returned their car back, sent messages via their site ( Axos Bank ) called a couple of times, attached a copy of the discharge to their site and via email. The attorney that filed the Bankruptcy has even emailed them letting them know that they should stop defying court order, yet, they still keep reporting it on my credit report as missed payments and the account isn't still closed. While every month i get emails and mail in my mail box of statements from them to make payments. 

I would think that AXOS Bank would know a bankruptcy XXXX  operates as an injunction against the commencement or continuation of any act to collect or recover a debt as a personal liabilty of the debtor is properly a basis for civil contempt proceedings.

Product: Mortgage — Reverse mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Onity Group Inc. (CA)

My mother passed away in XX/XX/XXXX and I called the reverse mortgage in XX/XX/XXXX to submit our intent to keep the property, request for marketing extension, and to payoff the loan balance. They advised me to send the Last Will and Testament, Death Certificate and a letter of intent and my requests which was promptly emailed on XX/XX/XXXX to PHH mortgage at the email address they provided. They said it would take 48 hours to authorize me in the account. I checked again on XX/XX/XXXX and the loan representative said that they did not receive my email due to difficulties they were having with their system. I submitted a new written request for payoff, marketing extension and for authorization the same day ( XX/XX/XXXX ). I was instructed to check back in 48 hours. On XX/XX/XXXX I called again to check status and the representative said that my documents had in fact been received the first time and that the file was notated by their legal team to say that the Will was not notarized therefore I am not authorized on the account. Im checking with an attorney, I was advised that Last Will and Testaments in the state of California do not require a notarization and the only require that is that they are properly witnessed. My mothers Will has been properly witnessed. I have attempted to contact the reverse mortgage company, PHH Mortgage Services to address this inaccurate information from their legal team but they continue to refuse me as an authorized person on the account. Time is of the essence in paying off this loan. However, after receiving several different reasons this company has deemed as insufficient for me to become authorized, and also asking to speak to a manager or Vice President, I have been unsuccessful in any attempts to receive a payoff statement including wiring instructions. At this point, I believe my consumer rights are being violated and that this mortgage company is thwarting my duties as a Trustee for my mothers estate. The beneficiaries are also being prevented from paying off this loan and their rights have also been violated in the process. To date, I have sent them the copy of The Living Trust, naming me as Trustee, The Last Will And Testament, Payoff Request, Marketing Extension Request. PHH issued a final notice calling the loan on XX/XX/XXXX with instructions that we have 30 days to comply before the loan goes into foreclosure. However, they will not cooperate with sending a payoff statement so that we can comply.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (CA)

XXXX, XXXX  and Transunion are reporting items on my credit report that are inaccurate and past the statute of limitations. When I have asked to verify and validate the account they only say it's been validated as correct. By law, they have to prove in writing, with the Original creditor that I signed a contact and show proof of such, i.e. a voided check. They are playing stall tactics so they can be paid by debt collectors that have purchased these inaccurate accounts. The are also breaking the law by reporting HIPPA medical accounts that can only be reported by the original creditors. The hard inquiries listed on my report are inaccurate. By law, only if I authorize, can a company run my credit.

TransUnion is in blatant violation of FCRA 604. Permissible purposes of consumer reports [ 15 U.S.C. 1681b ] which states the following : a. In general. Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : 1. In response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue such an order, or a subpoena issued in connection with proceedings before a Federal grand jury.

2. In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates.

3. To a person which it has reason to believe A. intends to use the information in connection with a credit transaction involving the consumer on whom the information is to be furnished and involving the extension of credit to, or review or collection of an account of, the consumer ; or B. intends to use the information for employment purposes ; or C. intends to use the information in connection with the underwriting of insurance involving the consumer ; or D. intends to use the information in connection with a determination of the consumers eligibility for a license or other benefit granted by a governmental instrumentality required by law to consider an applicants financial responsibility or status ; or E. intends to use the information, as a potential investor or servicer, or current insurer, in connection with a valuation of, or an assessment of the credit or prepayment risks associated with, an existing credit obligation ; or F. otherwise has a legitimate business need for the information i. in connection with a business transaction that is initiated by the consumer ; or ii. to review an account to determine whether the consumer continues to meet the terms of the account.

I've written letters, sent faxes, called and e-mailed regarding inquiries I did not authorize. With each correspondence I sent proof that I filed an FTC report. Each time, TransUnion claims that inquiries are a matter of factual record which is false according the the FCRA. Per sections 604 & 605 of the FCRA the following inquiries should be removed from my report : XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2021, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX By refusing to remove the unauthorized inquiries TransUnion is blatantly violating my consumer rights and disregarding FCRA guidelines.

I have had several leases with GM Financial. I have even worked with a GM dealer and had direct daily dealings with them. They are by far the most unorganized unprofessional auto finance/lease company that I have ever worked with, they can NOT handle the volume. One of my leases I sent 3 payments in to pay ahead. Thinking that I was paid up until XXXX they had never sent me a statement. So 3 months later I called to verify next payment due and they told me I was 30 days past due, they never called, never mailed never emailed me to let me know that they were claiming I was past due. How is a customer that had 3 current leases at one time with there company not get a phone call or a statement to let me know my {$200.00} lease payment is past due, really what a joke. They swear up and down they sent statements. I can promise they never sent me a statement nor did i get a phone call. I will never lease a GM vehicle again if I have to lease from GM Financial or there affiliate bad credit company XXXX. They should forget GM and stick with XXXX!!!

XXXX XXXX continues to claim this card is mine and I have stated that it is not. I have asked for file information that verifies this information and they have not provided it.

Problem XXXX : XX/XX/2020 is reporting 30 days late on my credit report. I have tried to resolve this many of times. I paid this account on time. Your reporting system is reporting inaccurate information. By your system not working properly it has put a burden on my character to the lenders. It shows that I am unable to make payments on time which will make lenders deny me for a loan. Also, this is not the first time this has happened to me. Under federal law this is a violation. I tried numerous of times to fix this situation but, when I do I get treated unfairly and rude. 
I made the payment XX/XX/2020 I have bank statements for accuracy in my dispute. 
The outcome that I am demanding is to update my account with removing the 30 day late payment. 

My payment due date is on the XXXX I was 28 days late not 30 days! 

I been dealing with this for over 3 years I just want this to accurately to report! That is all I been treated so unfairly. This is not my first complaint about this please fix this.
