Consumer complaint received 04/21/2015 about Mortgage (Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)) with OCWEN LOAN SERVICING LLC (DC).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: My loan serving was transferred to OCWEN Home Mortgage effective XXXX/XXXX/XX/XX/2014. From this date OCWEN has not paid my property taxes from escrow on time. I have spent hours on the phone with them to ensure that my property tax is paid. Taxes have been due XXXX times since they took the loan servicing and each time they have been late and/or required significant effort on my part to pay the bill correctly. It appears that they do not know how to : transfer the funds to the correct place, track the funds, ensure the funds were received, or readily provide me with proof that the tax payments have occured on a specific date for a specific bill ( such as with an account transfer record number ). They also keep asking me to confirm my property 's Lot and Suffix number.

Consumer complaint received 10/27/2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (GA).
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Personal information incorrect

Complaint: I have mailed several written requests to the credit reporting agency to remove all of the listed places of employment from my file. The information provided is incorrect. I have never worked for the XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX or any of the other companies listed in my report. The credit agency has failed to honor my request and remove this false information from my reports. It is causing issues for me when I go thru security screenings. I am asked very often to verify time period for places of employment that I have never worked. The credit agency needs to remove this erroneous information as soon as possible.

Consumer complaint received 02/26/2016 about Debt collection (I do not know) with Receivables Performance Management, LLC (MI).
Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not mine

Complaint: Receivables Performance Managemet calls multiple times a day looking for someone who is not us. We have told them they have the wrong number but they continue to call. Furthermore, most times when they call and we answer, they put us on hold then hang up on us. We then have to call back to talk to a human. When we call back, about 50 % of the time, they hang up and 50 % of the time someone answers. This is extremely unprofessional and frustrating, especially when we have told them that we are not the person they are looking for.

Consumer complaint received 02-07-2018 about Debt collection (Other debt) with CL HOLDINGS LLC (OR).
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint: Received email notification on XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX that there was a change to my credit report. I checked the details and found a collection had been added to my credit report. The company is XXXX XXXX XXXX, out of XXXX. XXXX, MN. I called several times, the hours are limited to contact someone at their business. I wrote a letter and requested details because all the details I had on my credit report was " XXXX XXXX XXXX ''. I called XXXX received XXXX help ( see attachments, letter from XXXX ). I visited my local XXXX to try and investigate this issue, no records. They said they sent my debt to XXXX XXXX. I wrote a letter to the Attorney General of Minnesota with the details ( XXXX is a MN business ). I have attached all letters with the details. I called XXXX XXXX early this morning ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and finally got ahold of someone who could explain. I don't even have an account number ( XXXX ) I can refer to so this could be researched. Apparently Attorney General of Minnesota had reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXX to get details and got this moving along. According to the two individuals I spoke with at XXXX XXXX ( XXXX and XXXX ) today ( XX/XX/XXXX )  they are sending a manual request to the three bureaus to remove this from my credit report. That's great but in the meantime qualifying for a home equity loan has been denied because of this. Received no notification, no letter, no phone call, nothing to give me advance notice of this collection, XXXX just attached it to my credit report! My issue is now with XXXX because they either sold this alleged debt to XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX purchased " old '' debt from XXXX and attempted to collect their share. This was for {$85.00}!!! I have attached a letter from XXXX which is the most unhelpful piece of correspondence. XXXX needs to investigate this and remove me from their database. This alleged debt is for a debit card and the date was XX/XX/XXXX. I still do not have the details. Any help you can provide would be most helpful. In the meantime I am closing all of my XXXX credit card accounts ( zero balances by the way, have been excellent customer of XXXX ). The debit card was never used and don't understand why it would have a {$85.00} balance from XX/XX/XXXX.

Consumer complaint received 09-09-2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with EQUIFAX, INC. (WA).
Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint: Equifax reported a security breach making me vulnerable to identity theft. The only method to completely protect myself was to place a freeze on my personal information on all four  credit reporting agencies. This has cost me {$31.00} and ten hours of my time so far and will likely increase after temporary freeze expires. I feel I should be reimbursed for this. This breach was totally out of my control.
This is not the first time a security breach has resulted in my personal information being exposed. It is past time for regulatory agencies or Congress to fix this permanently - credit reporting needs to be secure - I should be able to lock down my personal information with something other than my social security number and birth date.

Consumer complaint received 02/28/2017 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (MD).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: Facts : 1. I had a Wells Fargo bank account, and it was closed it in XX/XX/XXXX. 
2. When I closed the account, I was affirmed that I did not own the bank anything and I was free to go. 
3. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from a third party debt collection company. The company has my SSN, address, phone number and everything else. The company claimed that I own the bank about {$120.00}. 
4. When I called Wells Fargo on XX/XX/XXXX to double check everything, their banks transferred me from department A to department B, and then to department C. And department C tried to transfer me back to department B. And finally they told me I had to go to a local branch. 

My complaints : 1. I am wondering if it 's legal for Wells Fargo to share my private information with another company? 
2. Why did Wells Fargo wait for 2 years to notice me? How possible did they tell me free to go and close my account, and then found out I actually own them some fees and overdraft? 
3. I am not satisfied with their customer service of transferring me back and forth.

Sub-issue: Banking errors

I filed an online complaint through XXXX XXXX and they stated that they could not do anything, but instead, would have to take the matter up with the XXXX XXXX counter at which I purchased the carrier. However, I live in Maine, and can not do this.

Consumer complaint received 06-11-2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with PNC Bank N.A. (FL).
Issue: Problems caused by my funds being low

Complaint: I bank with PNC bank. I have a issue currently with a few transactions which caused my account to go negative and NSF charges that were imposed. What happened during this situation is as follows. I was out of town and knew there was going to be a charge go thru my account next week. I was aware of this so I was very cautious with my spending. To be extra cautious I made sure that when I made any type of charge to the account I checked the balance before hand to make sure the large charge did not come out before it should have so my account would not go negative. I have been told my the service reps at the bank that the processes were in real time so I took that to mean if there was a balance in the account that it would go in the order of the charge. THIS IS NOT WHAT HAPPENED. Although I checked before each and every charge the large charge I knew was coming ( although a week early as I was afraid of happening ) did end up going thru. Now the problem is all those charges that I double checked for a balance they did not process it the way they said it would. PNC processed the large charge first and then all the other small charges afterwards causing XXXX NSF charges. I called the bank and they once again told me that Everything processes in real time. I went back and forth with them and they ended up telling me the balance is just a tool. I was not satisfied with this and the case was elevated to a supervisor. I then received a phone call a few days later and the lady told me that things are not processed in real time. This is a stark contast to what I was told in person at the branch as swell as what the online CSR told me. She went on to tell me things are really processed when the receipts are sent to the bank for payments. Well this makes things impossible to try to fix if there was some type of error on the account. Anyway I feel like the bank was completely dishonest with me on how to try and protect myself against charges. If I would have know in the first place I would have just pulled out cash out of my account and paid with things that way so I did not have several hundred dollars in NSF charges.

Consumer complaint received 09-09-2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with EQUIFAX, INC. (CO).
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint: Equifax mishandled my personal information including name, social security number, address, birthdate, driver 's license number, and possibly more. They allowed a data breach to occur in XX/XX/XXXX, and they confirmed I could be affected on their website, www.equifaxsecurity2017.com. They have put myself and millions of others at risk of identity theft/fraud due to negligent security protocols in handling consumer information. They are further attempting to capitalize on the situation by signing injured parties THEY are responsible for up for " trial periods '' of their ID protection services. They are simultaneously defrauding these injured parties with hidden terms of service that waive their right to sue the company in what is clearly a situation of criminal negligence/fraudulent behavior as indicated by the three Equifax executives who dumped stock immediately prior to the data breach announcement.

Consumer complaint received 04/30/2015 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with RoundPoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation (PA).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: Our Mortgage was purchased by Roundpoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation in XXXX of 2014. In XXXX 2014 they took funds from escrow to pay our city tax. In XXXX of 2014 we received notification from the city that our taxes were never paid. We immediately contacted Roundpoint. After some investigation on their end, they told us that they pay taxes in " groups '', and our payment went to someone else 's taxes. Roundpoint said they would correct the error, and make sure our taxes were paid. They never credited our escrow account for the misappropriated tax funds, they just took another deduction from our escrow to pay the tax bill. At XX/XX/2014, they performed a escrow analysis and found our escrow to be short ... They sent us notification that our monthly escrow payment was to be increased by {$100.00}. I immediately called them to ONCE AGAIN complaint that they still had not credited the funds for the misappropriated taxes back to our escrow. Every time I call, I am connected to a different account representative, who always says " they are going to open an investigation ''. I was told I was not able to speak directly to a manager, and that they do n't even speak with management ... They have to email a manager and wait ( with you on hold ) for a reply. I have spent countless hours on the phone with these people, and they ca n't seem to make it right!!! Now, we have no choice but to pay the higher mortgage payment, because if we do n't, there will be negative consequences to our credit history. I am so sorry that this institution purchased our mortgage.
