Company: CNG FINANCIAL CORPORATION (CA)

Complaint:
Today XX/XX/2018 I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX demanding that I pay a fraudulent " balance due '' of {$310.00}. The letter references an acct No. XXXX and is addressed to me at my home address. I have never gotten any loan nor had any contact or dealings with XXXX XXXX XXXX or any other outfit for a loan of any kind. This is fraud. 
When I called the Customer Assistance dept and spoke to XXXX, the first thing he demanded of me was my SSA # and my Date of Birth : the very things a thief would use to make a fraudulent claim! He said that he " could not find me in the system '' under my name and the Account number above. He admitted that his company had generated the letter, but said he could not help me at all unless I gave him a bunch of personal financial information as noted. Then he transferred me to his Supervisor, XXXX XXXX, who repeated exactly the same thing.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (CA)

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX XXXX to get assistance for my XX/XX/XXXX payment for my mortgage loan. I spoke to XXXX XXXX a Home Preservation Specialist with XXXX XXXX. I told her my payment was due and that I was out of work for a month due to a full XXXX  XXXX. 
XXXX XXXX then said she for sure was able to assist me gave me two different options and one of the options was to commit to a payment arrangement. The payment arrangement consists of splitting the month of XXXX regular payment of {$1600.00} in two payments. First payment in a half of {$2500.00} would be paid on XX/XX/XXXX and the second payment would be paid on XX/XX/XXXX for the same amount of {$2500.00}. I asked the representative if this would affect my credit and she replied no because they would help me get on track. I felt in great relief with the assistance. 
My daughter XXXX XXXX is the cosigners to the loan. My daughter is a XXXX XXXX for the City of XXXX CA. In the month XXXX I received a call from my daughter the cosigner of the loan told me how upset she was feeling and asking me why I was late for three months on the mortgage payment she stated her credit score dropped about 80 points. At this point her credit was ruined her and possibly not able to purchase another home for her family since she is soon to get married. 
I have contacted XXXX XXXX several times and have gotten the run around. I spoke to a representative and she was rude just continued to say I was late and would not listen to my concerns and facts. On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted the XXXX XXXX in the external department and asked him to please pull the calls and prove that XXXX XXXX gave me false and misleading information about credit reporting. XXXX XXXX has proof of payment plan letter and payments made to them on time per the payment arrangement letter from XXXX XXXX. I have also contacted Experian and XXXX  and downloaded proof of the payment arrangement from XXXX XXXX and a copy of my bank statement from XXXX XXXX XXXX showing proof that it had been paid on time. 
My daughter and my financial future are in Jeopardy. We are not at peace and all we did is trust our mortgage lender.

Issue: Fees or interest — Problem with fees
Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc. (MD)

Complaint:
My concerns are that the credit card company did not acknowledge hardship and continued to add late fees and added interest that was not at the reduced APR as agreed. 
I contacted Comenity bank in XX/XX/XXXX and explained that I needed payment assistance and request to be placed in hardship program. I spoke to a rep from overseas and the payment arrangement was set for 12 months and I began the program ( so I thought ) In XXXX, I began to receive phone calls from Comenity bank stating that I was past due and I notice that the charges they placed on my account for late fees and ridiculous amounts of interest. Under the hardship program, there was a reduced ARP of 10-11 %. This was not it. I called on XX/XX/XXXX and was told that the last rep I spoke to did not enroll me into the hardship program, and did not offer to fix the issue. They simply said they can enroll me at that time. But I asked several times how and explained that I obviously did because I have payments scheduled for the reduced amount for the next year at the reduced rate. The rep did not have any solutions and did not offer to reverse previous charges that should not been on the account. I requested to speak to a US representative and was placed on a long hold to wait. Once a US representative was on the line, she did not see the XXXX conversation either and stated that after a few billing cycles the late fees should be reversed but now my credit score has lowered tremendously behind this and due to the high interest they werent supposed to charge me and late fees, Im nearly at the max and I dont know how to fix this. Its hard getting through with the telephone number thats on the card and on the website. Then, the company decides to lower the limit on my NYC credit card from XXXX to XXXX further damaging my credit score and left me with a remaining credit limit of XXXX. I paid that account on time and didnt have any issues with that account so Im frustrated with this company and their unfair practices.
