Consumer complaint received 09/18/2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with Experian Information Solutions Inc. (TX).
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint: Please be advised that this is my THIRD WRITTEN REQUEST and FINAL WARNING that I fully intend to pursue litigation in accordance with the FCRA to enforce my rights and seek relief and recover all monetary damages that I may be entitled to under Section 616 and Section 617 regarding your continued willful and negligent noncompliance. Despite my previous 2 written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You stated in your responses to my 2 dispute letters that you have verified that the items listed below are accurate but you failed to send me copies of the documents that you used to verify these accounts as per my request. The fact that you have ignored my request to send me copies of the documents that you used to verify the disputed accounts is evidence that you cant and did not verify any of the disputed accounts like you said you did. Your failure to delete the disputed accounts that you cant verify after two written requests is also evidence of your willful disregard of Federal Law. 

When we go to litigation and through the discovery process you will be required to produce these documents along with an affidavit swearing under oath that these are the true and correct documents that you used to verify the disputed accounts. The fact that you dont have any of the said documents in your files is proof that you did not properly verify the accounts within 30 days as required by law and the Court will order you to delete them. 

You say that you have reinvestigated these accounts but youve admitted that all you have done is parroted information given to you by other sources and shifted the burden back to me to contact the original creditor to verify these accounts which is clearly in violation of 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ). 

I also asked you to give me the name of the person in your company who verified the accuracy of these accounts but you ignored this request as well which is another violation of Federal Law and evidence of your willful disregard of the law. 

Please be advised that under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified. I request that you do this immediately. 

The law is very clear as to the civil liability and the remedy available to me ( Section 616 & 617 ) if you fail to comply with Federal Law. I am a litigious consumer and fully intend on pursuing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA. I demand that you delete all of the accounts listed below immediately & provide me with a copy of an updated and corrected credit report showing that these items have been deleted.

Consumer complaint received 04/16/2018 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with ERC (CA).
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information is missing that should be on the report

Complaint: Dear CFPB, There is a Collections account on my three credit reporting agency reports that is either not mine or is reporting seriously incorrect information.

It is XXXX XXXX XXXX with an open date of XX/XX/XXXX.

Last year, I contacted the three Credit Reporting Agencies about this collections but all they did was note that I am disputing them. They have not corrected or deleted them. Also, the collections agency did not respond to my request for validation.

I know for sure that I have not defaulted on any debt for since I went through a divorce in early XX/XX/XXXX. For six years, I have made all my payments on time.

I am worried that this collections is either not my debt or has been re-aged by the collections agencies. This practice of re-aging is a very serious violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act 623. Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies ( a ) Duty of Furnishers of Information to Provide Accurate Information ( 5 ) Duty to Provide Notice of Delinquency of Accounts ( B ) Rule of construction. For purposes of this paragraph only, and provided the consumer does not dispute the information, a person that furnishes information on a delinquent account that has been placed for collection, charged for profit or loss, or subjected to any similar action, complies with this paragraph, if ( i ) the person reports the same date of delinquency as that provided by the creditor to which the account was owed at the time which the commencement of the delinquency occurred, if the creditor previously reported that date of delinquency to a consumer reporting agency I do not know what else to do. Can you please assist in me in getting this erroneous collection report removed from my three credit reports?

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Consumer complaint received 10-11-2016 about Credit card () with AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY (MD).
Issue: Other

Complaint: I 've been with American Express for four years without any financial problems of paying my monthly bill. I still believe this is a fine company. However, what I do n't understand is why my card was suspended recently ( XX/XX/2016-XX/XX/2016 ) until I paid my bill which I had to XX/XX/XXXX to do. However, my problem is are they looking at a certain population of people. What was the reason for my suspension. Out of four years I had this card I paid my account late once by one day,. Due do a mix-up. They never had another problem out of me with a late payment. My problem is the many reasons I was given for the suspension of my card.. Reasons like I charged XXXX on my card and I have not done that in six months. So! I was always told that I do n't per say have a limit. Also, I had just charged {$1300.00} XX/XX/XXXX. Why not the concern then. I glad I was n't trying to pay for something at the time the card went down. If below {$1300.00} is going to be my limit, why not give me that in writing so I will know what not to go over? I discussed with why in XX/XX/XXXX {$1300.00} was alright to charge and in XX/XX/XXXX a very, very, very red flag of sort goes up and now it 's an ALARM? Tell me what I can charge without being suspended?

Consumer complaint received 07/18/2017 about Debt collection (Other debt) with JH Portfolio Debt Equities, LLC (TX).
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint: J H Portfolio Debt Equities purchased a debt in    XX/XX/XXXX    that originated in  XX/XX/XXXX  from   XXXX   XXXX  . I have asked them for validation of this account since    XX/XX/XXXX    via certified mail thru USPS. I did not receive anything from them until I filed a complaint with CFPB. They only have 31 days by law as per FCRA and the FDCPA. They did not meet this deadline and therefore the reporting to the Credit Reporting Agencies MUST BE DELETED. Another factor to be considered is the fact the JH Portfolio is re-ageing this account or " parking it so it will stay on my credit report indefinitely, by selling it to another debt buying agency. The fact of the matter is J H Portfolio did not respond in a timely manner according to the federal laws and must be deleted from all credit reporting agencies.

Consumer complaint received 12/18/2015 about Debt collection (Other (i.e. phone, health club, etc.)) with The CMI Group, Inc. (MA).
Issue: Disclosure verification of debt
Sub-issue: Right to dispute notice not received

Complaint: This is a complaint against : Credit Management , LP Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX Fax : ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX TX XXXX https : //www.creditmanagementonline.com/contact On XXXX XXXX, I received the attached statement ( alleged debt letter XXXX and XXXX ), dated XXXX/XXXX/15. It is the first and only contact from them. It was for a XXXX debt owed by a person with a similar but different name, and I have never had a XXXX account. This is not my debt. I have already contacted them about this but do not yet have a reply. 

Further, prior to them contacting me about her debt, they made derogatory reports about me to all XXXX credit bureaus ( attached ). That is malicious, libelous, and a defamation of my character. I demand that they contact the agencies at once and have all negative remarks and accusations removed. 

Further, according to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, XXXX XXXX, Validation of debts [ XXXX XXXX XXXX ] : ( a ) Within XXXX days after the initial communication with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt, a debt collector shall, unless the following information is contained in the initial communication or the consumer has paid the debt, send the consumer a written notice containing -- ... 

( 3 ) a statement that unless the consumer, within thirty days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector ; ( 4 ) a statement that if the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, the debt collector will obtain verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment against the consumer and a copy of such verification or judgment will be mailed to the consumer by the debt collector ; and ( 5 ) a statement that, upon the consumer 's written request within the thirty-day period, the debt collector will provide the consumer with the name and address of the original creditor, if different from the current creditor. 


They failed to perform the quoted sections ( failed to make these statements ) and are thus in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. A full copy of the first and only contact is attached ( alleged debt letter XXXX and XXXX ) and shows that these were omitted. 

Due to the fact that they are in XXXX and I am in XXXX, I wonder how many other people in the country with a name similar to XXXX XXXX received similar letters. They went rather wide by mailing XXXX to a person XXXX. 

They need to correct this at once.

Consumer complaint received 10/19/2016 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with United Shore Financial Services, LLC (CA).
Issue: Application, originator, mortgage broker

Complaint: United Wholesale Mortgage ( UWM ) refuses to give me documentation on a refinance loan that was done around XX/XX/2012. After my divorce ( with the divorce decree specifically stating that my ex retains the homes and all financial encumberances ), and the quit claim deed, UWM still refuses to take me off the loan. 
I understand that my ex-husband is in contempt of court by not assuming the loan or refinancing. 
That said, UWM modified the loan without my knowledge or consent ( taking my income into account, I 'm told ), which is FRAUD. They also refuse to give me any documentation on a loan that I 'm still responsible for! I have a legal right to this information. I do n't care if they do n't like me or think that I 'm the one to blame for the missed payments ( P.S. I 'm not. I transferred money into my ex-husband 's account each month for the mortgage until I left. I paid for all of it. Now that I 'm not around, it does n't surprise me that he 's having trouble. ) Anyhow, I have a RIGHT to this information. I am XXXX % co-borrower on this loan. I have a right to all documentation regarding the loan. I also have a right to know about any changes ( like modifications ). All I asked is that they remove the notations about foreclosure from my credit ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX ), and I would n't pursue charges. But it looks like that 's not going to happen now. 

What they 're doing is illegal. The fact that they wo n't communicate with me about a loan which I 'm XXXX % responsible for is illegal. Doing a modification without my consent or knowledge, is illegal.

Consumer complaint received 04-07-2017 about Consumer Loan (Vehicle lease) with U.S. BANCORP (OH).
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint: We received a final lease assessment from US Bank for " excess wear and tear '' on the vehicle. I originally called the company on XX/XX/XXXX to appeal the assessment, as it was my view that the wear and tear met the definition " normal '' under the US Bank agreement. Several times I was hung up on. I was redirected to the voicemail of a supervisor who never return my calls. When I followed up with their end of lease department and asked to review the assessment with the supervisor, he agreed that of the original approximately {$800.00} in " excess wear '' charges, all but {$150.00} were unsupported to the photographic evidence and waived them. We continues to insist that the {$150.00} charge for scratches on the front bumper constitute excess wear, his contention being that the scratches referenced are greater than 4 '' in length. Unfortunately for US Bank, that is not the " excess wear '' policy we agree to when we signed our lease, and in fact, even their own end of term brochure describes excess wear as scratches that BREAK THE PAINT which are longer than 4 '' in length. The referenced scratches are surface scratches in the clearcoat that are easily buffed out ( which the US Bank guidance identifies as " normal wear ''. ) I am less concerned about my own situation than I am about what appears to be a systemic practice by US Bank to overcharge lease termination fees inconsistent with agreed legal contracts between the parties. As an informed consumer, I fully intend to have all inappropriate fees waived. I am concerned, though, that if I were not an informed consumer the bank would have taken advantage of my lack of knowledge to overcharge me nearly {$1000.00} in unsubstantiated lease termination fees which are inconsistent with the definitions of use agreed by BOTH parties at the commencement of the lease.
