Consumer complaint received 04/13/2018 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with Experian Information Solutions Inc. (TN).
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint: I filed a dispute with Experian for an account on my credit report with incorrect information. The account was with XXXX XXXX. This account has been paid and closed since XX/XX/XXXX. Experian and XXXX both report that this account is in " good standing '' as of XX/XX/XXXX. Then " charged off '' the months following. This " good standing '' being reported for XX/XX/XXXX makes it seem like I have an open account with them and then stopped paying. Resulting in my credit score being lowered and me getting denied for credit cards. I contacted XXXX XXXX and all they did was mail me proof that the account was paid and closed in XX/XX/XXXX. I then called Experian and told them exactly what the error was and they still did not correct the issue. I have uploaded a screenshot from Experian 's app showing the error being reported for XX/XX/XXXX.

Consumer complaint received 10/23/2015 about Prepaid card (Payroll card) with Empowerment Ventures, LLC (FL).
Issue: Managing, opening, or closing account

Complaint: As you may be aware of, the issue with Rushcard is a big concern. As like many other Rushcard customers, I was not able to access my funds. I also experienced issues with my direct deposit. I think it is ridculous for this company to only offer a fee free trial period for all the damage they have caused, on the other hand, I am not surprised by their actions, it only goes to show that the rich do not, never have and never will care about low income civilizians.

Consumer complaint received 01/31/2018 about Debt collection (Credit card debt) with HSBC NORTH AMERICA HOLDINGS INC. (IL).
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Impersonated attorney, law enforcement, or government official

Complaint: I received two threatening telephone calls today from XXXX ( " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  '' out of Michigan ) regarding a credit card bill, which was charged off over 7 years ago. They acquired ( purchased the file ) onXX/XX/2018. They said they were going to serve me papers between the hours of XXXX and XXXX regarding a lawsuit filed against me. When I contacted them with questions, I was hung up on several times, told to " pay your bills '' and " XXXX '' twice. I was also called a " XXXX XXXX ''. When I told them not to call me at work, they said they had no choice but to serve me. When I asked what my address was they began giving me several, all of which they obtained by doing a XXXX search. The representative confirmed this and told me that if " you are going to mention the company, get the name right '' ( I said XXXX because of nerves ). She then hung up on me. Representatives from Law Firms that specialize in collections leave false information and threats ( I've had this happen previously many years ago when I lost my job ) and contact any person with the same last name, always leaving the same messages for family members regarding the person they are trying to collect from. Their behavior is unethical, unprofessional, and completely disrespectful. Additionally, they threaten and give unlawful information. This company, in particular, needs to be fined and shut down. Their communication practices are unacceptable and unlawful.

Consumer complaint received 01-04-2018 about Mortgage (Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)) with TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY (PA).
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I closed on a loan with TD Bank XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Pa. XXXX. The loan was in the amount of {$220000.00}. Which the following was to paid out to creditors : XXXX XXXX XXXX {$110000.00} XXXX Credit Card {$9400.00} XXXX {$2300.00} XXXX  {$1900.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX {$1900.00} XXXX XXXX  {$67000.00} Total {$190000.00} Check to Borrower {$31000.00} Total Loan {$220000.00} Payments were suppose to be made to the creditors 10 days from settlement. However only the credit cards were paid. XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX were all paid on XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX have n't been paid as of the writing of this complaint XX/XX/XXXX. 

I have been in contact with TD Bank, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX multiple times. TD said they sent the checks out on XX/XX/XXXX. But they did n't get a tracking number from XXXX. I did receive a call from TD Bank on XX/XX/XXXX that XXXX XXXX XXXX sent the check back to the TD Branch by mistake and I was told that it was resent to XXXX XXXX XXXX. However the funds still have n't been applied to the payoff of the loan and when I call XXXX XXXX  XXXX they have no evidence that this happened. XXXX still has no record of any payment for the payoff. 

At this point I 've been charged for principal and interest on the new TD Loan and they took payment out of my checking account on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$1500.00}. I 'm also being charged for the loans for XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX which should have been paid off before the new TD payment took affect. I 'm lucky I caught that the payments were n't made by TD Bank or these loans would have gone to collections and affected by credit rating. All along TD Bank had no idea that the loans were n't paid off. 

I do n't think there 's any sense of urgency from TD Bank to fix the issues, while I 'm out about {$800.00} in extra interest and penalties and this number is growing. 

Any help to get the XXXX and XXXX loans paid off and refund me charges that are n't my responsibility would be much appreciated.

Consumer complaint received 06/14/2016 about Credit reporting () with TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (WI).
Issue: Credit monitoring or identity protection
Sub-issue: Account terms and changes

Complaint: In trying to lift a credit freeze from Transunion, I submitted what I thought was a request to control that freeze process. It turns out, though, that this was a credit *monitoring and alert* service. I gave them a credit card number for payment. However, the site had nothing to do with my credit freeze, which required a separate log-in and payment schema. Then I started receiving {$20.00} charges each month from Transunion for this service. Apparently I had signed up for a trial period and the regular payments started. Exceptionally frustrating and shady.

Consumer complaint received 04-04-2015 about Bank account or service (Other bank product/service) with BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (SC).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: bank of America has a atm suspicious activity program which use to be voluntary but now seems to be mandatory. although some still say you can opt out, I try what they say to do it but so far no luck. this sounds great in theory but it is actual harassment. they freeze you card, the only way you know it is them is by e-mail or phone call. if your in a store and do n't have a cell phone, your screwed as everyone thinks your out of money or them the trans has to be void and you leave in shame and once you get home and call them or get the e-mail, then your on hold to get to a person for XXXX minutes, then the person wondersw why your upset- well duh!!!!. then in my case since I was at the drug store getting medicine I have to face the embarrassment of going back there to finish what I started. this would not be so bad if I had not already done what the rep told me to do last month when they froze my card for suspicious activity at the same store. so when I got the rep on the phone I went through the list of where I work, where I shop, the drug store, everywhere I might use the card so this would not happen again, they said that this was what I needed to do since they could not find a way to opt me out of this nightmare. low and behold I get up on the day before XXXX, buy a XXXX book from XXXX, which I told bank of America I was a junkie for, and go to the drug store and post office, which I told them I go to and guess what, they freeze it and I have to walk out the drug store, no medicine XXXX drive home check the mail, call them, wait on hold XXXX minutes, answer stupid questions all for a im sorry, then go through the embarrassment of going back to the store and not having them think I am a broke moocher. if bank America would go back to letting this be optional or finding a way to let people opt out of this esp if they already have this service from others then things would be a lot better

Consumer complaint received 09/14/2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with TCF NATIONAL BANK (WI).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: On XXXX XXXX, 2016, I was informed that TCF National Bank had closed my checking account. This decision was made because, in the words of the branch supervisor and managers, that I forgot to send in a requested Questionnaire that would update my current information. They also claimed that that the questionnaire had nothing to do with the bank, but was requested by the " XXXX. '' Yet the letter that accompanied the form mention nothing about a federal agency, but only TCF policy. I sought help from your agency and from the best of their knowledge they told me that they could n't find any law on file that stated that the federal government would send a questionnaire and suspend my checking account because it was not returned. Furthermore, what I find most offensive is the fact that my assets are now frozen. My funds have not been returned to me, they denied automatic transactions between my creditors, and I ca n't withdraw my money. However, they are allowing deposits into my account despite the account being officially closed. I have been misled by bank managers, been cheated out of my finances, and caused great distress over this incident.

Consumer complaint received 04-07-2015 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with Seterus, Inc. (FL).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: Good evening. 

My Fiance and I have been mortgage holder to a loan being services by Seterus , inc . Through the course their servicing the loan we have experienced instances where there were over payments to the account through payments into escrow, when we inquired about an analysis of the file, Seterus would either stall or not call us back. 

We were on a plan to refinance our mortgage, one month there was an oversight and the payment was not made on the due date. When we logged into the system to make the months payment we realized it and made the double payment. Seterus did not contact us by call or email to let us know that the payment was not received. When we pressed on about the amortization of the loan, they sent us a check for XXXX with no letter explaining why there was so much money in the account. 

Our position is that seterus prays on the loan holders and works it so that refinancing is not possible due to the late payments, this is predatory and a unfair practice. If there is an overage, why did they report us to the credit bureaus. 

We filed a complaint with the better business bureau and the Florida State attorney. 

Please help us.

Consumer complaint received 09-02-2016 about Credit card () with BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (OR).
Issue: Identity theft / Fraud / Embezzlement

Complaint: There is a fraudulent charge on my account, I have spoken with the financial institution numerous times since XX/XX/2016 about the matter. The claim has been closed and reopened numerous times, and while each representative at Bank of America agress that the claim should not have been denied, the system keeps kicking it back. The last representative, after reviewing the account, explained that they keep attempting to credit it and the claim seems to be going in a loop that should not be happening. After extensively researching the claim she told me that so does not believe that anything she can do will get this to go through and agreed that filing a complaint with the CFPB may be the only way to get someone that can override the system to take care of the issue.
