Product: Debt collection — Medical debt
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: R.M. Galicia, Inc. (TX)

XX/XX/2024, received a bill for {$3000.00} of which I " paid or were credited '' {$2900.00} " toward the 'debt '. 

{$0.00} was charged to me " in interest '' which I don't believe they can legally do. 

Furthermore, they have been paid and credited a significant amount for any work purported to have been performed and should not claim I owe them anything more. 

Finally, they failed to state anywhere that a medical emergency for under {$500.00} can not appear anywhere on a credit report. They should have stated that and also they had better not attempt to make that occur. 

I clearly dispute their purported debt and I wish to receive no further communications from them, including both written and telephonic. Thank you.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (MA)

I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report and found late payment on the dates below : XX/XX/2020 I am not sure how this happened, I believe that I had made my payments to you when I received my statements. My only thought is that my monthly statement did not get to me, or the payment was not applied as fast as expected. I checked my bank account and noticed that you deducted the money out of my checking account that on the month that you marked me late on my credit report.

Product: Debt collection — Payday loan
Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Guidiville Indian Rancheria (VA)

I was contacted by phone by a man who said he was calling from a law office, and that they were collecting on a loan that I owed to Multiloansource.com. He said I owed {$600.00} on the loan, and with late fees over time, I now owed {$1300.00}. But then he said that he would work with me, and that if I paid {$330.00}, within 24 hours, then that would settle it. 
I did have a loan from a few years ago, and I did have as dispute with the lender, because they took more debits than they were authorized for, and so I did not pay them anything else, but had paid back much of the loan. I am not certain if the loan was with multiloansource or not, and I could n't find documentation to support that they were the lender I used. I have also gotten a lot of other calls from other debt collectors who say I owe on a payday loan from online, and they all had things they said which made me think it was a scam. 
When I asked for information to be sent on the documentation of what was owed in writing, they said they could n't send me anything by regular mail, but that they could send something by email. They already had my email address, which I thought was strange. They also never identified themselves as to what company they were with until they sent the email which appeared to be sent from XXXX XXXX XXXX. The email was just a Word document saying that I owed the debt, but not any proof. I also recently learned that internet loans are void in my state, so I do n't know how they would freeze my assets, contact my employer and garnish my wages, as they said they would do. They said I had 24 hours to respond or they would take legal action.

Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION (NC)

On XXXX my account was gotten into on USAA by phone number XXXX at XXXX. At XXXX and at XXXX XXXX attempted to get into the phone automated system. They were able to change my information with only a SSN and birthdate. ( ( When I call I have to provide a pin ). Transactions were made from XXXX XXXX and another in XXXX for on that same night ( they used my debit card for both ). The pin, security questions and password were changed and a new phone number of XXXX ( appears to be texting service out of XXXX was added as my primary number. My account then had a mobile app established on this number which appears to be an Android XXXX XXXX phone. None of these numbers are attached to me or my family nor do any of us have any XXXX smart phones. ( we have all XXXX ) Here is where the NIGHMARE really begins I called USAA fraud department to make them aware that the XXXX number is allowing notifications and it 's not mine. They appear to not be able to remove this device from my profile. The have put in a ticket to try to solve it but it will be sometime next week. So someone has access to my balances and accounts until then even with added security in place. They also can not tell me that after the two week lock out on my account if someone will be able to call in and do this again. I have opened a new checking and savings but am stuck at this moment because I have no way to access my money and the payroll check can not be changed for this reporting period. 

USAA has temporarily refunded the XXXX transaction on my debit card pending their investigation the charge for XXXX XXXX is still pending. Currently there are XXXX others here in our Military XXXX that are having similar situations with USAA. We do n't personally know them and my adult son who no longer lives with us had his account hit 3 days after mine in XXXX XXXX. 

Currently I want answers and USAA can not give me any. I was told by Fraud Department on Thursday to stop stressing and to have a good weekend. 
I have reported to police department and have fraud alerts on all of my credit reports. I noticed all of this on the XXXX and USAA tells me that 'd those other phone numbers have not tried to access anything since the XXXX. Right now not sure I trust them and my information is floating around on an unknown device. 

After speaking with someone who works In computer securities for a large Corporation they feel as if USAA has had a data breech. As I write this I have involved many authorities and this seems to be a huge problem with USAA and I 'm just one of many having this issue in the last 3 weeks. Speaking with about XXXX people here their debit cards have been compromised with USAA since XXXX.

On XXXX/XXXX/16, I received a Payoff Statement from Carrington Mortgage Services of {$570.00} valid until XXXX/XXXX/16. I paid that amount through XXXX online banking. XXXX XXXX XXXX sent that amount on XXXX/XXXX/16 for delivery on XXXX/XXXX/16. A letter from Carrington dated XXXX/XXXX/16 stated Carrington did not receive my XXXX/XXXX/16 payment and that I owed {$550.00} which included a late charge. I immediately called Carrington and informed them I sent them the loan payoff amount and faxed them a copy of my online banking statement. I also contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX Online Banking. On XXXX/XXXX/16. a XXXX XXXX XXXX representative and myself called Carrington and XXXX XXXX XXXX faxed Carrington proof of my payment. XXXX from Carrington told us they located the funds XXXX XXXX XXXX sent. A letter from Carrington dated XXXX/XXXX/16, stated they located the {$570.00} and it was posted to my loan as the XXXX payment with an effective date of XXXX/XXXX/16. On XXXX/XXXX/16, I called Carrington again and spoke to XXXX and informed her the {$570.00} was the Payoff Statement amount and should be applied as such. She put me on hold to speak to someone else. She then told me I should not worry, the funds would be sent to the cashiering dept. I could consider the mortgage paid off. On XXXX/XXXX/16, I received a Call from Carrington trying to collect a debt. I explained the whole thing to this woman and she found all the notes pertaining to this matter in my loan file. She said she 'd pass this to her supervisor for quick action. On XXXX/XXXX/16, I received a Notice of Intent to Foreclose from Carrington. I again called them speaking to the same woman as I did the day before. She informed me she would have her supervisor call me. It is becoming clear to me now that Carrington Mortgage Services, through incompetence and/or outright criminal activities, is trying to extort additional funds from me.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Academy Mortgage Corporation (DC)

My husband and I closed on a loan in XX/XX/2020 and began making payments in XX/XX/2020. We made payments for XXXX, XXXX and XXXX automatically via a recurring ACH setup through the companies customer portal ( https : //my.academymortgage.com ). At some point the loan servicer changed as the mortgage was sold. We were not provided any letter documentation noting to change payments. In XX/XX/2020 my husband and I began receiving letters of default from Academy Mortgage. They accused us of missing payments for XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. Upon talking to an academy mortgage representative, it was discovered that our servicing had been sold to some other part of academy mortgage and the payments we were sending within academy mortgage were not going to the new holder of our mortgage, academy mortgage or XXXX. 
At this point, we have had multiple conversations with both sides of Academy Mortgage and one continues to point fingers at the other, all the while sending us demand letters and default letters. We have opened cases and sent multiple emails and the issue is still unresolved. We can not set up any kind of ACH within the new servicing portal of academy mortgage as they have us in a default status so there is concern on how XXXX and future payments will be paid. 
This seems ridiculous and highly disorganized. We are mortgage consumers that pay each month on time and are being accused of being in default because our money is sitting somewhere and not being redirected to the proper servicer. This seems illegal and unfair.

I had auto-pay set up through my mortgage servicer - Loancare. Suddenly, in XXXX the payments were interrupted. Despite the fact that I had received my monthly " Thank you, your mortgage payment has been received! '' email from Loancare my payment had not, in fact been deducted from my checking account. I contacted them several times and each time they swore everything was fine. Finally I made a manual payment from my checking account and held my breath, hoping that Loancare would n't suddenly ding my account and pay double that month XXXX they did n't, my manual payment was the only payment made. XXXX Despite my phone calls and attempt to ensure this payment was made on time, Loancare levied a late fee for XXXX. I have been unsuccessful in having them waive this, as the late payment was because of a problem on their end XXXX their auto-draft not functioning ) and nothing I did. 

Care to guess what happened in XXXX? Again an email thanking me for my mortgage payment. Again no money deducted from my checking account. Again a flurry of phone calls and emails that ( mostly XXXX went un-answered trying to find out if Loancare 's auto-pay was going to deduct my payment or if I should make a manual payment again. Again I was assessed a late fee, and was told that my mortgage payment was not received due to insufficient funds ( not true and my bank is prepared to provide written evidence as to such ) and then when I called I was told my payment was n't made because of changes I had made on the Loancare website ( again, not true I had not made a change since originally setting up the original auto-draft and had been successfully making payments for MONTHS before this happened. ) I ca n't get anywhere with Loancare, their staff are rude, unprofessional and unhelpful. When my husband and I attempted to re-finance the loan with them in order to remove PMI they declined, stating that my bankruptcy inhibited their ability to improve the terms of my loan ( I have never declared bankruptcy and they refused to disclose where they had obtained that information. ) I really do n't understand how these folks get away with this stuff. I 'd rather have my loan serviced by XXXX.
