Company: ERC (OH)

This debt collector engaged in abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices of the FDCPA which it prohibits. They furnished this account that we didn't agree upon, and I didn't sign an agreement on. A legal contract is signed by two parties, and I did not participate in any of it. More so, they didn't follow the proper five validation procedure which makes this an unfair practice. This needs to be looked into immediately.

I opened a Walmart credit card sometime XXXX using my EIN so I could set up business credit card. Capital One took over the accounts and flagged my card as fraudulent. They requested I submit a copy of drivers license, social security card and current utility bill from my residence. I also sent a copy of the EIN issued by the IRS. In my XXXX statement I noticed some charges I did not make and requested that they be removed. Capital One stated that the charges could not be removed until I submit a copy of my drivers license, social security cad, and current utilty bill. I explained I already submitted those documents and out of frustration didnt respond. My plan was just wait until I had the balance paid down then deal with the issue again and have the account closed. The account is now a little over {$100.00} and once the fraud charges are removed they will owe me money. I have once again attempted to close this account. I have submitted countless documents, written letters and they still wont close it or removed the charges in question. Case # XXXX account ending in XXXX

Company: JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (TX)

I opened a personal Chase Credit Card account ( last 4 digits XXXX ) in  XX/XX/XXXX ( see exhibit A ). I used this account and then closed the account in XX/XX/XXXX. Image of card is shown in Exhibit B. 

During the time this account was open, I made a transaction with XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX ( see exhibit C & D ) for {$240.00}. A copy of my account statement showing this charge is shown in exhibit E on the 3rd page E3. The event that I purchased for {$240.00} was subsequently canceled in XX/XX/XXXX ( see exhibit F ). I contacted the merchant, XXXX XXXX XXXX and was informed that they sent a credit to the credit card account the event was originally purchased ( last 4 digits XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX, after the account was closed. Please see exhibit G attached showing the receipt from the merchant, XXXX XXXX XXXX for the {$240.00} credit. 

Upon calling Chase Card Services XX/XX/XXXX, I learned that my account ( last 4 digits XXXX ) had been purged by Chase from your system. Since, the account has been purged there was no way for the Chase representatives to look into my account and find out what happened to the credit that was sent to me from XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

I am owed the credit that XXXX XXXX XXXX sent to Chase on my behalf on XX/XX/XXXX for {$240.00}. 

I have contacted Chase numerous times but nobody can access this account since they claim it was purged from their system. I was promised by XXXX in Chase Email Servicing that the matter would be investigated and they would contact me within 14 business days. It has now been 22 business days, and when I contacted them again, they have no response, and no record of any investigation, it is as if I am starting over with them. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX, whom I have also contacted numerous times, thinks the refund was processed XX/XX/XXXX as referenced above, but Chase has no record of receiving this refund as they can't access this " purged '' account. 

I need Chase to either to find the refund of {$240.00} and send it to me, or send me and XXXX  a letter that they have not received the refund so XXXX can issue a new refund direcly to me.

Company: Credence Resource Management, LLC (AZ)

I am in the process of buying a home. My lender pulled credit on XX/XX/2022 at the start of the loan process. My credit score was over XXXX. I was approved for the loan, and 7 day prior to closing the lender does a 2nd credit check to make sure no new debt has been issued or applied for. When they pulled my credit my score had dropped over 100 pts. Come to find out XXXX XXXX XXXX had put a collection on my credit reports in behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX. After further investigation through conversations with XXXX XXXX XXXX I found out that someone had used my social to open a cell phone account with XXXX XXXX XXXX using a different address, a different email address, and a different phone number. I had no idea this took place and still don't understand how that happened let alone how XXXX XXXX XXXX allowed it because I have had an active account with them for years in good standing. They already had all my information. 

After speaking with the XXXX XXXX XXXX representative they said I would need to get with Credence Resource Management because they were the ones reporting on my credit report. I contacted them and they verified that I never received any information about the account because they were sending to different address, with a different email, and different phone. I never received any Dunning letter, or was ever notified that this Fraudulent account existed.

Explaining that I needed to close on this house this week, they said they would have me a letter within 24 hours. When I didn't receive it and called back they told me it could take up to 48 hours. Then today they are telling me 2 weeks.

Here is my problem... I have a {$100000.00} in escrow at risk if I don't close on this loan on time. All my contingency time periods have passed. Because this is a conventional loan my interest rate went from a 6.25 % to 8.125 % This mistake an unwillingness to act is going to be very expensive because I will not be able to refinance out of that rate for 12 months.

I can choose to not close and lose my earnest money of {$100000.00} or take the higher rate at a cost of just under {$5000.00} over the 12 months
