Issue: Arbitration — 
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CA)

Citibank has refused my timely request to opt out of the company 's new arbitration provision. Citibank lied about the date of my request. Certified Mail tracking proves that it was not only postmarked, but even received, before the postmark deadline. I believe that Citibank is expecting customers not to notice or question the imposition of arbitration. 

By way of background, I have been a Citibank credit card customer for 21 years, have never missed a payment, and have always maintained a high credit score. My account is in good standing and no disputes are pending. 

Facts, in chronological order : XXXX XXXX, 2015 : Citibank announces the proposed arbitration provision and the opt-out process. " You can reject the change to arbitration by writing to us ... Your letter must be postmarked on or before XXXX/XXXX/2015. We will not close your account ... '' Letter attached. 

XXXX XXXX, 2015 : I mail my opt-out request, XXXX XXXX, Certified, postage-paid. Letter and postmarked Certified Mail receipt attached. 

XXXX XXXX, 2015 : Citibank receives my letter, before even the postmark deadline. United States Postal Service tracking results attached. 

XXXX XXXX, 2015 : Citibank refuses my arbitration opt-out request. Citibank falsely claims that " you did n't mail your preference to opt out by the deadline we established. '' Letter attached. 

XXXX XXXX, 2015 : I file the present complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and mail copies of the complaint and of the documents mentioned above to Citibank.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc. (NV)

It has been since XX/XX/2021 that every time I make an additional payment toward my principal, Mr. Cooper ( formally Nationstar ) mortgage company applies part of that amount to my monthly payment without my permission, even though my monthly payment has already been taken care of and paid. They have not applied those amounts correctly for the past year and an half, and every month after I make that additional payment toward the principal, I have to reach out via email/chat or phone to have those amounts rectified and applied correctly on my account. Last year I filed XXXX complaint XXXX and for few months the problem sized. Now, the last 4 months they have started to do it again and apply the amount incorrectly. They say there is a setting ( hierarchy ) on my account that makes the system apply some of the payment toward the principal. I'm back to square one and every month, I have to reach out to them to make the payment adjustments. They always tell me they will update the setting on my account but it never happens : the following month, the payment is applied wrongly and I have to call again to make sure is applied correctly. Please reach out to them and have them stop this behavior, they are using my money in a way I have not agreed and I feel they are taking advantage on my money and abusing me. It is emotionally draining. Please make them STOP!!! Thanks

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (GA)

I obtained an XXXX XXXX XXXX through Fidelity Investments, and neither is taking responsibility for the gross negligence which allowed fraud to go undetected. Responsibility is being shifted over to Bank of America, a new vendor, and Fidelity has distanced itself from the product so that I can not even log on the account through their website portal. The balance remains on my credit report with major damage to my credit rating. The company address I am being given is FIA Card Services XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX But Bank of America sent a no-reply email indicating that they are located in XXXXXXXX. The contents of the email suggest that collections will proceeed, even though this has been entered into dispute. XXXX was shocked they were not doing basic fraud detection that would be standard, but they have told me to deal directly with Fidelity who is dumping me off onto an unwanted relationship with Bank of America with a balance and ruined credit rating. 

I hope everyone reads this because Fidelity Investments was who I entered an agreement with, based on their company reputation, in addition to having respect for the XXXX XXXX logo. But that 's not who I am dealing with, and the damage is substantial.

That 's in Code of Virginia XXXX ( XXXX ) and ( XXXX ). As the first delinquency occurred on or before XX/XX/XXXX, Experian will be reporting this derogatory information in violation of the law if it persists in reporting this account in XX/XX/XXXX. I am concerned with this because XXXX XXXX is still reporting this item as a charge off when it was paid with XXXX balance and should either be deleted or listed as closed or paid in full. This is affecting my good credit record and continues to affect my credit rating. Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Springleaf Financial is another one that started in XXXX County because that is where I live. Payments were being taking out of my check regularly to satisfy my amount due. However, at some point again XXXX County stopped taking the payments. Instead of Springleaf contacting me to make arrangements, the also went to XXXX County after 5 or so months. I believe that this behavior from them is being taken against me because I requested that they remove inaccurate information from my credit report. I asked that Springleaf remove themselves because at the time I thought that my account was paid in full.

Issue: Credit decision / Underwriting — 
Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION (NJ)

To whom it may concern, I would like to establish a formal complaint against USAA Bank. I submitted an application for a VA loan ( refinance ) and was mislead throughout the full process. I was pre-approved and submitted all associated documents as requested. After having everything submitted and reviewed, they had me conduct an appraisal and a termite inspection. About 7 weeks into the application process I verified that no other documentation was needed and they confirmed that my loan was clear to close. I then received the final disclosures and then was asked via phone if I wanted to roll over the closing costs since I had enough room to roll that over. I was then transferred to a loan officer and then they started reassessing the loan and then determined that I was no longer approved for the original amount which makes no sense. There was no transparency and caused me financial harm by paying for a termite inspection and appraisal. I am also a partially XXXX veteran and feel that they may even have discriminated against me. 

I am also truly concerned because they sent an adverse letter to me after talking to the loan processor. No options were given to me such as the possibility of putting down a larger down payment or anything. This was the worst experience by far with a financial institution.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (NY)

Equifax wo n't investigate an account and summarily responds with verified even while the account keeps fraudulently changing to remain on my report. I have called and disputed this multiple times to no avail. When I ask why the date of first delinquency has changed so as to remain on my report longer Equifax just offers to re-investigate and then sends a letter with the same response that the information has been verified  ( no explanation as to how or what that means ). I  am providing copies of an old dispute response from Equifax highlighting previous information reported along with a copy of what is currently showing on my report marked in yellow to highlight the discrepancies and to showcase how Equifax is knowingly reporting false information. In my old report the full history of the account appears, along with a much earlier first date of delinquency. In my latest report, the account history has been deleted and multiple inaccuracies appear, not least of which is that the date of first delinquency has been reported as MUCH later. This has been changed in order to keep the account showing on my report. Equifax is clearly not complying with applicable fair credit reporting laws and I will be hiring an attorney as my financial well being is severely hampered by the false reporting.
