Consumer complaint received 10/24/2017 about Mortgage (VA mortgage) with Shellpoint Partners, LLC (GA).
Issue: Closing on a mortgage

Complaint: We have a property that has been for sale since XXXX XXXX. For most of this time period the property has been under contract ( 4 separate offers ) and awaiting response from the mortgage company. The first offer, buyers walked away because it took too long for a response. The second offer, mortgage company countered, buyers increased offer and again the mortgage company did not respond in a timely manner. When the closing date came and went the buyers threatened to sue us for breach of contract if we did not reimburse them for appraisal, inspection, and survey fees ; which we did. The third offer, buyers walked away because again the mortgage company did not respond in a timely manner. 

The current offer is a full price, cash offer of {$290000.00}. The contract was submitted on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX with a closing date of XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. The mortgage company requested to extend the closing date to XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, all parties agreed. We were advised by our point of contact that once we submit an offer close to or the exact amount of {$290000.00} it would not take long for them to review the file and issue a decision. Today is XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and we are still awaiting a decision from the mortgage company. Although we have been very prompt in submitting all documents and information requested, the mortgage company is unacceptably slow to process the sale which is causing anxiety to both parties. 

Any assistance you can give us in resolving this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Consumer complaint received 02/18/2016 about Credit reporting () with EQUIFAX, INC. (FL).
Issue: Unable to get credit report/credit score
Sub-issue: Problem getting my free annual report

Complaint: This happens every year. Equifax , under guise of " verifying '' my identity, asks obscure questions about my report and then alleges that I answered one of them incorrectly. The ruse changes from year to year ; I believe this year they were asking about a store credit card that may have been issued by some financial institution with a name different from the store 's own, or maybe I have never had such a card. There are literally dozens of cards over time in my report, and a XXXX card may be named XXXX Bank card or whatever, and the report, when I finally see it, may mention one or the other or maybe a third name for the credit provider. I do not get another chance to guess at another question, and one missed answer means denial of the online report. The alternative : write by snail mail, and add a ridiculous number of documents proving that I am me. 
I believe that Equifax does this to keep people from getting their free credit reports.

Consumer complaint received 08/30/2017 about Debt collection (Other debt) with Diversified Consultants, Inc. (AL).
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged

Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Diversified Consultants in XXXX, FL and paid a past due bill originally owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$300.00}. The company agreed to contact all 3 credit reporting bureaus and update this account as paid. As of XX/XX/XXXX, it still shows as derogatory and debt unpaid on my credit report.. The company has had 30 days to complete this transaction and they still have not held up their commitment. I also paid 2 other past due bills in collections off during this time and those companies upheld their commitments to remove their accounts and send me a written notice in the mail that this debt has been paid. Diversified consultants have neither updated to the credit reporting agencies or sent a written notice showing that this debt is paid. What do you do when a company takes your money then ignores you??

Consumer complaint received 01/20/2017 about Debt collection (Credit card) with SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL (AZ).
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Used obscene/profane/abusive language

Complaint: XXXX uses abusive language in the way they attempt to collect a debt. They are very aggressive and intimidating in their manner. They need the money NOW and insist on getting your banking information before they send you written acknowledgement of your arrangement. They have REFUSED to send me a written acknowledgement of our arrangement and they said it was due to an " open complaint ''. I stated that my complaint had nothing to do with our arrangement and that I was entitled to file a complaint every time they were nasty to me and I would continue to do so until they changed therir tactics. I have called repeatedly to resolve this matter and they simply REFUSE because I filed a complaint that I am legally entitled to do. Regardless the issue is their REFUSAL to send me written acknowledgement of our agreement and the AGGRESSIVE MANNER in which they INSIST on attaining my banking information before issuing a written agreement. They are RUDE AND NASTY and someone needs to stop them. They can not force me to give bank information without a written agreement and they can not withhold such agreement as a way to harass me for filing a complaint.

Consumer complaint received 05-09-2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with CITIBANK, N.A. (GA).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: In XXXX XXXX, I followed a link that was on the CitiBank website to open a new checking account. At the time of opening that account, there was a promotion that was being offered that said that XXXX XXXX Thank-You points could be earned by completing qualifying activities after opening a new CitiGold checking account. After completing the activities as specified in the original terms when opening the account, I sent a message through the CitiBank website to inquire about the XXXX Thank-You points that I was supposed to receive as a result of participating in the promotion and completing all of the necessary requirements. I received a response back from CitiBank indicating that I had indeed completed all of the requirements of the promotion on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I was then told the bonus points would be credited to my account no later than the end of my XXXX XXXX statement period, which ended on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. After this date passed and no points were credited to my account, I called twice and also sent messages through the CitiBank website. I was given several different responses, including one customer representative denial that I was signed up for the promotion, another customer representative said that I was not qualified for the promotion, etc. However, I pointed out to all of them that I had verified earlier both at the time of signing up for the checking account, as well as, after I had completed all of the requirements of the promotion that I was indeed qualified and had completed all of the necessary requirements for receiving the bonus XXXX Thank-You points. I have also attached to this complaint a written copy of the letter that was sent to me directly from CitiBank that confirms that I was enrolled in the offer, that I did complete the requirements of the offer, and that they stated that I would receive the XXXX Bonus Thank-You points by XX/XX/XXXX statement.

Consumer complaint received 09-03-2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (FL).
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Old information reappears or never goes away

Complaint: Navient Solutions is reporting derogatory on my credit report, for a zero balance account dated back in XXXX, refusing to remove via giving the run around on the proper channels to take to have it removed. 

XXXX XXXX sent loans into default after allegedly not being able to reach me on several occasions, I was not made aware of these finding until enrolling in college XXXX, After being notified of these findings, I immediately contact XXXX XXXX with concern, was under the impression the loans were in forbearance, but the rep told me something different, was told The time my loans were in forbearance was XXXX for 30days, which would have been unreasonable for me to do,, since I had fallen on Hardship for since XXXX. 
I Explained to the Rep if that was true why am I now being sent to the default statues 1yr and 4-5months later? when the allotted time after a missed payment or no further action to put the loans in any type of repayment plan is 270days. 
I Take Full Responsibility of the debt I myself agreed to and since being notified of the default findings I have worked with the Dept. Of Education and is now currently on a Rehabilitation Program. 
upon pulling my Credit Report I also found that the derogatory remarks are reporting on my credit, now I am aware that govt loan can be collected forever but after 7 years the negative remarks suppose to be removed, to my finding the delinquency dates of these loan are very inaccurate and untrue, and have requested on multiple occasions of payment history and source of payments for the accounts and this issue has not been resolved

Consumer complaint received 01/19/2017 about Student loan (Federal student loan servicing) with Navient Solutions, LLC. (MI).
Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are handled

Complaint: For 7 months, Navient has been incorrectly applying my student loan over-payment. When you choose to pay more than the minimum balance on a loan it gives you the option to either pay down the principal or postpone the due date of future payments. As I am trying to pay down my loans quicker, I always choose to pay principal. I have noticed that the particular loan I am paying extra on is saying that I have no payment due. On further inspection, I have noticed that every over-payment has been charged interest and my next payment is not due until XX/XX/2017. This is exactly what I informed them I do not want to happen with my payments and is causing me to pay more interest than I am obligated to pay as per my loan agreement.
