Consumer complaint received 08-03-2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MD).
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint: I have tried several times to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX about a fraudulent credit card account on my credit report.
Additionally, I have also contacted the credit reporting agencies to have this information removed. They have refused to remove this information and are unable to provide a signature for the card or term acceptance. I have explained through multiple letters that I have been a victim of Identity theft by a family member and have even went to court and proved this with another credit card ( XXXX XXXX ).
I have filed claims and filled out paperwork pertaining to this and sent to their office detailing the events of a family member opening an account. Attached you will find court documentation where I was able to get a complaint dismissed for another credit card. This account is not mine and I want it removed from my credit report immediately.
Again the reporting agencies have not been helpful and have not been able to prove the debt. In fact they are in direct violation of the FCRA and Fair Debt Collections Act. The proof for which they are utilizing does not meet the standards. They do not have a signature or ID from me and are solely basing the account on the fact it was mailed to my address which does not meet federal standards.
I want this removed immediately and I want the CFPB to make the reporting companies to validate all debt, respond to complaints accordingly and adhere to all applicable laws and regulations as it pertains to substantiating such a debt. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MD XXXX

Consumer complaint received 03-04-2018 about Mortgage (Conventional home mortgage) with BROKER SOLUTIONS, INC. (TX).
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint: We used New American Funding to obtain a conventional home loan for a home we closed on XX/XX/2016. 

The Loan Consultant for New American had originally estimated the annual property tax to be {$2900.00} a year when he issued us a loan estimate on XX/XX/2016. By the time we closed, the underwriter had readjusted the taxes down to {$1800.00}. Now that we have been in the home for a year we have learned that the taxes will be {$3100.00} and our escrow account has a severe short fall that will cause our monthly mortgage payment to increase by 21 % for the next year. 

The previous home owner was a XXXX veteran, was using the property for agriculture, and he was a senior citizen, thus he qualified for extensive tax exemptions. When the underwriter pulled the tax certificate for the previous owner they failed to ask the local tax office a very simple question, " Was the property receiving any tax exemptions? '' The tax certificate has a statement which reads, " If applicable, the above described property is receiving special valuation based upon it's use. Additional rollback taxes that may become  due based upon the provisions of the special valuation are not indicated on this document. '' If the underwriter had read the tax certificate and would have made a simple phone call they would have known not to change the original tax estimate that was provided by New American 's Loan Consultant. Instead, we are the ones penalized by their mistake. A 21 % increase in mortgage payment is unacceptable.

I have tried talking to New American but they do not believe they have made a mistake. They believe that the home 's reassessment is the cause for the gigantic leap in tax liability. They aren't reasonable and won't even acknowledge their mistake. The fact that their own Loan Consultant was almost spot on with his original tax estimate tells me that New American has a serious problem with their underwriting process.

Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Keep getting calls about my loan

Complaint: I attended XXXX College XXXX and I needed some additional funds to further my education '' I graduated ''. Once I completed my degree I began to hunt for employee in my field like a lost leaf in the big city. I found know work in my field so I began to look at other options, jobs that could help me pay my debt. After almost a year I started to get worried because I had n't heard anything from the bank, so in my mind I felt like I had time still because any creditor/lender is required to send you a notice of when your bill is due and this did n't happen for me. So I reached out to Chase when I found employment and asked if I could make some arrangements and I was told know. So now it 's been two years of going back and forth with them and nothing. I need help with this, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
