Consumer complaint received 06/22/2017 about Mortgage (Conventional home mortgage) with OCWEN LOAN SERVICING LLC (NY).
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint: I had lost my job i n 2014 and was in the middle of a mortgage modification with my mortgage company. I had 50 % equity in my home. In the  XXXX  of 2014 my mortgage was taken over by OCWEN. After two y ears of pure stress produced from foreclosure threats, confusing conversations, correspondents and refused payments, they finally modified my mortgage. During that time they lost documents, made financial mistakes and in the end added {$12000.00} more to my principle.   XXXX  I am now stuck with a mortgage with a deceitful, dishonest company. I know they have been sued over and over for the same reasons. If not for my own persistence and knowledge in the matter, I would have lost my home. I have recently asked them for detailed information regarding the added {$12000.00}. As usual, I received a document that makes no sense and no explanation for the added {$12000.00}.

Consumer complaint received 08/31/2015 about Mortgage (Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)) with NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE (CA).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: For the XXXX time in the 26 months since taking over servicing of our mortgage, Nationstar Mortgage has failed to provide a monthly mortgage statement. This follows previous complaints about this same issue, with the first XXXX filed with the CFPB on XXXX XXXX, XXXX as Case number XXXX. The first complaint concerned not providing mortgage statements in XXXX and XXXX of XXXX. Nationstar then did not provide mortgage statements in XXXX and XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX. That caused us to file complaint number XXXX on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. We subsequently also filed a complaint over the failure to provide the disclosures required by 12 CFR 1026.20 ( d ) between 210 and 240 days prior to the reset of a mortgage payment, and Nationstar refusing to provide a copy of the Note with " any modifications thereto '' as required by California Civil Code section 2943 ( b ). 

12 CFR 1026.41 provides the exceptions to providing a monthly statement, and our case does not fall within any of the exceptions. Nationstar has cited the existence of litigation as their excuse for not sending the required statements, but in our situation, only a filing of bankruptcy by a borrower provides a reason for not providing a mortgage statement. We have never filed bankruptcy.

Consumer complaint received 12-07-2016 about Prepaid card (Payroll card) with Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (MO).
Issue: Unauthorized transactions/trans. issues

Complaint: New ADP paycard. I called ADP customer service to get XXXX & Account number to set up automatic electronic payment for XXXX credit cards. They gave me instructions to print out voided copy of " check '' that would have XXXX & Acct number on bottom. They instructed me to use those numbers. I then used that information on XXXX of my credit cards to set up automatic electronic monthly payments. Then I received notice from my credit card companies that the payments were " refused by the bank '' and that my payments were now late. I called XXXX Customer Service and was told that reoccurring payments had to be set up using the card number on the front like a credit card. I advised ADP that I verified with the credit card companies that they would not process a payment in that manner. I also asked ADP to process the XXXX payments that I had already initiated, with the money on my paycard, MY MONEY, and was told that there was no way they could do that. XXXX said that the only thing they could do was reprimand the customer service rep for giving me bad information but that was it. They also said they would not reimburse me for any late fees assessed by the credit card companies. Additionally, I was told that the XXXX & Account numbers were certainly valid if I wanted to deposit additional funds in my account. But those same XXXX & Acct numbers are automatically declined for any kind of payment out of my account. I 've had paycards before and used them for automatic payments. It was NEVER a problem. This XXXX pay card is a joke!!! I ca n't pay my bills online with it and I 'm limited to ATM caps if I try to take cash out. Again, I stress that I can always use those XXXX & Acct numbers to put MORE money on my card. SO HOW IS THIS RIGHT????

Consumer complaint received 02/14/2018 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with EQUIFAX, INC. (AZ).
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 have been trying to get the people that work at Equifax to remove all of these negative entries off of my credit report on multiple occasions throughout 3 to 4 years. I have sent multiple letters to them asking them to validate the debts. In order for a debt to even be legitimate and added to a credit report they need to have the original Contract that both parties signed which will prove that the debt is legitimately mine. They have not done this at all. 

The people at the company refuses to send me anything I have asked for. They just continuously send me the same thing over and over again. They are fraudulently keeping this entries on my report and I have no idea why. I have told them that there is NO contract that exists for any of these. They know there is no contract that exists but they still repeat the same process with me in a cycle and they are making me waste money and resources re-sending them documentation and letters to have them validate something they know they can't validate instead of just removing the entries. 

Again I know there are no contracts that exist and they know there's no contract or else they would have provided one. So I wish they would stop making me go in circles and just remove the entries.

As I said : I believe that I do not owe this particular bank any money and the fact that they do not have my name on file reinforces my opinion. Please help me get this item addressed.

They also left a message on my cell phone ( all contacts were made to our cell phones. ) No one ever gave them permission to contact us, especially on our cell phones. The caller was deceptive as he asked " who is this? '' When neither of us would disclose our names, he gave out the information that they were a debt collector and the name of the person involved in the collection.

Consumer complaint received 12-07-2015 about Credit reporting () with TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (GA).
Issue: Credit monitoring or identity protection
Sub-issue: Problem cancelling or closing account

Complaint: I am trying to put a freeze on my credit. I accessed the respective links from this site : XXXX since the fees are state dependent. There was no issue with XXXX and XXXX. I was able to complete and freeze the account online. With TransUnion, it first asked me to create an account. Then upon entering all details it said could not complete it online and asked to call a number. It was obvious it was an outsourced call, and the first thing I have to provide is my SSN. Seriously? I am trying to put a credit freeze due to a hacking of my personal information, and now I have to give my SSN to someone on the phone? 
This is the message I am given : What happened : Unfortunately, your request can not be fulfilled online at this time, based upon the data provided. 
What to do : Please contact us at ( XXXX ) XXXX to initiate your security freeze transaction by phone. 

TransUnion needs to have a better way for Individuals to freeze their credit online. I am unclear on what data is incorrect, as it is not identified. If the other XXXX agencies could transact and freeze my credit why does TransUnion have an issue with the data? Perhaps they want to tie me in to a subscription?????

Consumer complaint received 11-02-2017 about Mortgage (Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)) with Specialized Loan Servicing LLC (CA).
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint: I make a double payment to my HELOC loan each month ; one to cover the payment due plus extra for principal and one that is just put towards principal. 

On XXXX XXXX, I was notified by my bank that my payment had been refunded to my bank for the reason that my account was closed. I immediately called XXXX XXXX, the holder of the loan to inquire the reasoning behind this. They informed me that their loans were now being serviced by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

I then called SLS, Inc. and retrieved all of my account information, set it up in auto-pay with my bank bill pay service and thought everything was taken care of. 

In XXXX, I was informed by SLS that outstanding payments were due from XXXX ( of which I have documentation that they were credited to our XXXX account ). In addition, they were not receiving payments from my bank. Although my bank had been sending them, and monies had been taken out of them. 

Sometime in XXXX as well, I was notified by my bank that SLS had refunded monies sent to them because they did n't know who I was or what account to be crediting the payments to. 

SLS has accepted several payments and I believe credited those payments to our loan, however, last week I received a notice of default. 

After many calls to them, this issue remains unresolved. I am incredibly frustrated with them and fear that their incompetence will impact my credit.
