Company: LoanCare, LLC (MN)

My ex husband purchased a home on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX with only his credit utilized for the mortgage. I had a foreclosure the year prior and did not qualify for a loan on either a home or even a car. My ex husband signed the paperwork for the mortgage. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, my ex husband and I separated and he stopped making payments on his home that he lived in. We divorced on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX my credit was affected by his delinquency and also on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX the Loancare mortgage was applied to my credit report even though the entire time my ex husband owned the home, the mortgage account never showed up on my credit report. I called Loancare and it took the customer support specialist over 20 minutes to locate " my initial '' on a part of the paperwork for the mortgage, even though back in the XXXX of XXXX, my ex husband had to give a verbal authorization for me to speak to Loancare about his loan, since I was not on the mortgage. I 'm filling this complaint because Loancare is fraudulently claiming i 'm on the mortgage my ex husband signed and is now damaging my credit. Below is the LoanCare address information.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc (NC)

PayPal changed my old PayPal account to a Bill Me Later Account without my knowledge. I ordered something back in XXXX and the merchant only used PayPal. I 've used PayPal in the past without any problems, but this time I found myself in a situation I 've never encountered. I have always paid by paper statement with pay pal and never had a problem. I realized on XXXX XXXX that I had not received a paper statement in two months from PayPal. I do n't use online billing services becasue we had our identity stolen back in 2014 and it created a problem with the IRS and we are still getting bills from XXXX company for things we have never ordered. I also do n't check balances on the Pay Pal website because they 've changed their website so much, I ca n't find anything I am looking for. It took me forever to locate their mailing address in XXXX GA where I always have mailed my payments to. I did n't realize that PayPal had quit mailing me paper statements until I made another purchase from a vendor who uses PayPal and that purchase automatically transferred me to my PayPal account. That 's when I notice PayPal had charged me with fees and interest on the XXXX purchase and I had n't paid the XXXX balance because I never received a statement in the mail. If I do n't get a statement in the mail, I wo n't remember to pay anybody. I pay everything by mail-power bills, doctor bills, XXXX XXXX XXXX bills, etc. I also noticed that PayPal has not been using my primary email account to send me notifications. If I had gotten an email from them in XXXX, I would have know then there was a problem. I also noticed that my traditional Pay Pal account had been changed to Pay Pal credit Bill Me Later. This is a misnomer if they are not sending you a bill later.

I sent Equifax copies of the XXXX letters mailed signature certified along with receipts to this collection agency, asking them to validate this debt as belonging to me.

This is a clear case of unverified debt here, and I requested Equifax to remove this item from my credit report. They have refuse to do this. Equifax is the ONLY credit bureau who is reporting this negative information that is causing me to be depress and keeping me from purchasing a much needed car to get me to work and school.

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC. (FL)

I purchased a Truck from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX ... they procured my financing through Ally financial. I have never heard of this company and their logo is purple so getting a call from an unknown company asking you for {$800.00} you would be a little wary. Calling XXXX XXXX various times only left me with numerous " I 'll let you know who your loan is through '' not real answers ... not an actual name, account number, nothing. I sent {$250.00} to test the company first. Seemed to check out so I sent the remaining payment. They break down payments as the following : Date Payment Amount Description for Payment Type Code Finance Charges Late Charges Other Charges Total Paid XXXX/XXXX/2016 {$310.00} Outside Bill Pay {$98.00} {$0.00} {$0.00} {$410.00} XXXX/XXXX/2016 {$280.00} Outside Bill Pay {$120.00} {$0.00} {$0.00} {$410.00} XXXX/XXXX/2016 {$360.00} Outside Bill Pay {$48.00} {$0.00} {$0.00} {$410.00} XXXX/XXXX/2016 {$490.00} Online payment {$67.00} {$0.00} {$0.00} {$560.00} XXXX/XXXX/2016 {$0.00} Outside Bill Pay {$250.00} {$0.00} {$0.00} {$250.00} Their Finance Charges as you can see change daily!? 
I agreed to no higher than 6 % interest and the way they creatively have this set up I 'll end up paying $ XXXX for a $ XXXX truck. 
I looked into refinancing, thinking please XXXX XXXX save me ... They pulled my information and let me know that they have been reporting me late on my payments ( even though I have not been ). Now they lowered my score so I 'm stuck with them. What a scam. I have never agreed to this! I never signed paperwork with this company the last thing I was told through XXXX XXXX was I was dealing with XXXX XXXX for a loan ( my own bank ). I called on XX/XX/XXXX16 and talked with XXXX asking for any explanation and a review of the credit reporting. I 'm sure they will say it was late the first month or they will have some creative excuse, but I can not pay a bill I had never received, to a bank I have never heard of, with an account I did n't know I had. I am livid. They charge daily interest so if I pay a month in advance will I not have this? Its worse than " late fees '' XXXX forbid if it will actually be late. There a significant difference in their fees and it is not what I agreed to. I still have n't received a paper statement once. ( I was informed that they send me email ones. ) I feel like this is the biggest regret of my life. I can not afford this.

Company: Flagstar Bank, N.A. (AZ)

I have a mortgage with Flagstar Bank, I have had this loan with them for three years now and I have never been late on a payment. I use the system of payment that they recommend to their consumers online, and in XX/XX/XXXX their system had an error. I made my payment through their online system on XXXX/XXXX/2015 and the payment in their system showed me it went through. I had funds in my bank account there was no problem processing the payment on my end. But their system had an error and did n't process the payment correctly, or that is what I was told. Their system shows the payment as being returned on XX/XX/XXXX and that is when I got a phone call from them stating that I was now over XXXX days late for my mortgage payment. I asked how that could be, I had made the payment and I knew I had funds available for it. He told me of the error and took a immediate payment over the phone from me to correct it. He told me he could n't speak to me about the XXXX day late mark they put on my credit, that I would have to send in a fax and just wait for a response. I am very frustrated with this! We have an excellent credit history, and have never had a XXXX day late payment even on a credit card much less a mortgage!! Any help would be much appreciated, I feel like if I made my payment through their system and their system had an error, it should not reflect negatively on me for doing it their way.

Company: I.C. System, Inc. (AZ)

I had a XXXX account at my address in XXXX NE and when I cancelled they sent me a shipping label to send my equipment back. I had to call 3 different times just to get them to send me the label and tell me where to send the stuff back to. I finally got the label and was told to use any box, so I packed up the cable modem and wireless router and using their shipping label sent everything back to them. About a month later I received a bill for {$160.00} for unreturned equipment. I called them and said there is a mistake because I have a tracking number showing it was delivered and who it was signed by. She said " well we received one of them but we never got the other '' I said well that 's odd because they were in the same box. She informed me that was the problem because they should have each gone to a different address so that was the confusion. I explained to her that I had called 3 different times just to try and get a shipping label at all and was never informed they needed to go to different locations. She said she would take care of charges on my account and that was the end of it. I never received another bill after that. Next thing I know a few months later I got a notification that I had been turned into collections with XXXX for that same {$160.00}. I called XXXX and explained the situation to them and they filed a dispute which gave XXXX 30 days to respond. On XX/XX/XXXX I got a letter from XXXX that they are not currently handling my account anymore and any information that may have been reported to the credit reporting agency would be deleted. So I thought it was resolved and finally finished. Naturally you can imagine my frustration when I just received a notice from a DIFFERENT collection agency dated XX/XX/XXXX through IC System Inc attempting to collect the SAME {$160.00}. 

Bottom line, XXXX is charging me for equipment that I DID return and they 've confirmed that I did return it and should 've cleared my account. They 've tried to go through one debt collection agency and when that did n't work they are now going through another one. I do n't owe this money as I returned all of their equipment as required ... and they 've confirmed that!
