Consumer complaint received 11-07-2017 about Mortgage (Conventional home mortgage) with FLAGSTAR BANK, FSB (TX).
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint: I made additional principal payments with my previous loan servicing company - XXXX XXXX XXXX. Those payments were made on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and they total {$11000.00}. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX my loan was transferred to another service bank - Flagstar Bank. Flagstar Bank has the wrong principal balance. They do not have the {$11000.00} of payments on the account. I talked to their customer service a few times and every time they tell me to contact my previous loan service company and ask XXXX to send Flagstar the missing payments. I talked to XXXX XXXX XXXX a few times already and they keep telling me they have send the {$11000.00} to Flagstar. I told this Flagstar and I asked them to take the necessary steps and obtain the missing information and payments. I asked Flagstar to contact XXXX  and work with them but they would n't do that. They are not taking any additional steps to resolve this issue. I have also send Flagstar the following ledger and amortization schedule that I obtained from XXXX as a proof.

Consumer complaint received 01/15/2017 about Credit card () with Experian Information Solutions Inc. (PA).
Issue: Credit determination

Complaint: Dear CFPB, For the past year we have attempted to obtain a XXXX without success. Due to an attempted identity theft, our XXXX credit reports were frozen. XXXX uses XXXX for the XXXX processing. At their ( XXXX XXXX request I temporarily lifted the Experian freeze via the Experian website and re-applied for the card. Approximately 4 times during 2016 I lifted the freeze temporarily, applied for the card, and was denied. Each time the reason was that the Experian freeze was not lifted. All attempts to call Experian and speak to a person were unsuccessful. Experian seems to be excellent at avoiding direct customer contact by phone. 
XX/XX/2016, I requested Experian to permanently remove the security freeze on my account. The Experian confirmation letter is attached. XX/XX/2016 after receiving confirmation of the freeze removal, we re-applied for the XXXX and were again denied. The denial letter from XXXX is attached. The reason again is that the Experian freeze has not been lifted. Please contact Experian and / or XXXX on my behalf and attempt to resolve this. The problem seems to be with Experian not lifting the freeze.

Consumer complaint received 07/13/2016 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with State Home Mortgage (GA).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: State Home Mortgage was in possession of a check in the amount of {$200000.00} payable from XXXX my insurance company for losses my home incurred as a result of a fire XXXX XXXX, 2016. On Thursday XXXX XXXX I received a call informing me that the loan ( XXXX ) was paid off. That decision was made due to miscommunication at State Home Mortgage. 
I did not receive answers to my questions regarding loan pay off ; I did not sign an agreement for pay off, I did not receive an email or phone call providing answers to my questions regarding loan pay off, nor the company 's intent to pay off the loan! 
XX/XX/XXXX, I left a voice mail for XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) expressing my interest in discussing a loan pay off. I called back within 24 hours and spoke with her. 
Expressing my intent to rebuild the structure, I also posed several questions including pay off amount and role of mortgage company regarding quality assurance. My decision to pay off the loan was contingent upon answers to those questions and more. 
Although XXXX XXXX understood my need to secure answers before making a final decision, she was incapable of providing them, noting the complexity involved in my desire to rebuild and payoff the loan. She eagerly promised to speak with XXXX XXXX and/or others with expertise in the area and call me back later that week. 
Upon notice of the loan 's payoff, I immediately sent emails ( XXXXXXXXXXXX and XXXXXXXXXXXX ) requesting the decision be rescinded with explanation. 
Finally I likewise secured legal counsel.

Consumer complaint received 06-06-2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with PNC Bank N.A. (NJ).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: PNC Bank improperly debited my daughter 's virtual wallet bank account a $ XXXX monthly service charge for the months of XXXX and XXXX 2016, for a total of {$50.00}. PNC states the reason for the $ XXXX monthly service charge was that the " spend '' portion of her performance select virtual wallet account contained less than {$5000.00}. Importantly, my daughter 's entire virtual wallet account, including the " spend '', " reserve '', and " growth '' portions of the account, totaled at least {$11000.00} during XXXX and XXXX 2016. PNC 's own " Consumer Schedule of Service Charges and Fees '' dated XXXX XXXX, 2016 and available online at the PNC website, states, for the performance select account, " No Monthly Service Charge if you meet any one of the following : " {$5000.00} combined average monthly balance in this and up to XXXX additional linked PNC consumer checking accounts... '' Because the account had a combined average monthly balance of at least {$11000.00} ( more than twice the {$5000.00} requirement ), PNC 's rule is that there is no monthly service fee. Additionally, I maintain a linked PNC consumer checking account that would combine and add even more to the total. The XXXX and XXXX 2016 monthly service fees totaling {$50.00} are improper under PNC 's own Consumer Schedule and must be refunded to my daughter 's account. PNC is charging consumer account fees without notice and providing consumers with false Schedule of Service Charges. Despite increasingly escalated requests, PNC has refused to return the {$50.00} to my daughter 's account and has stopped returning my telephone and email inquiries.

Consumer complaint received 09-08-2016 about Bank account or service (Checking account) with WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (NC).
Issue: Account opening, closing, or management

Complaint: My husband and I have had our account for over two years now. We specifically asked before opening account that I could cash his check on Fridays, because he works XXXX and sleeps during the day. We were assured that this would not be a problem. We were told that because he had given his permission in person at the bank, that this would be ok. For the first several weeks, I was told that I could not cash his check, because he was not present. My husband and I had to literally go inside the bank on numerous occasions to speak to their staff to resolve this issue. We were told, each time, that it has been resolved, and I would not have anymore problems cashing his check. As recently as XXXX XXXX, 2016, through the drive through, I was told, while I was trying to cash his check, that ( and I quote ) " I can not cash your check because your account is in the negative ''. Our account was NOT in the negative. I had to go inside and speak to XXXX, the branch 's manager. She told me that they have " new '' people who do not know me, or the circumstances. This is after meeting with XXXX, my husband and I just a few weeks prior to this incident. XXXX gave us her word that this would not be a problem again. I go through the drive through primarily because I am XXXX and it is very hard on my body to try to get out of my car, park, and wait in line inside the bank. What my husband and I are so upset about is ( 1 ) we were told upon opening our joint account that because he has given them his permission, I could cash his check every week ; ( 2 ) we are continuing to have this problem every time she tries to cash his check ; ( 3 ) now, because of all the issues of her trying to cash his check, he actually has to get up from his sleep ( he works XXXX and sleeps during the day ) around XXXX every Friday, get dressed and drive to the branch in order to cash his check. This is totally ridiculous!!

Consumer complaint received 04-06-2018 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with Experian Information Solutions Inc. (MD).
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: All 3 credit reporting agencies will not remove old hard inquiries, as well as recent hard inquiries where I had multiple credit inquiries for a single transaction ( e.g. car purchase ). It is standard business practice for the credit reporting agencies to treat multiple credit inquiries as to the same transaction as only one inquiry. On 2 occasions, have had multiple inquiries ( which I only authorized one ) all counted in my credit score that has since significantly reduced. XXXX, for example,  shows 19 hard inquiries. I have now been denied credit on this basis when my credit is otherwise perfect. At least 10 of these inquiries related to single transactions or are older than 2 years.

Consumer complaint received 03/31/2015 about Debt collection (I do not know) with The CBE Group, Inc. (KY).
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Frequent or repeated calls

Complaint: I have been receiving about XXXX calls per day to my cell phone which is registered on both the Kentucky and national no call registries. When I answer the calls there is no one on the line. I have not been given the opportunity to talk with anyone. I have not been contacted by any business or company that I do business with declaring that I owe them anything. I just checked my credit report and there are no negatives on the report. I guard my credit by keeping all debts current. I am never late or delinquent when it comes to making payments. My credit score is always around XXXX. I am totally confident that I owe nothing to anyone and that there can not be a legitimate reason for CBE Group nor any other collector to be calling me.

Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint: In 2013 I payed and settled in full my account with XXXX/XXXX.

Consumer complaint received 12/30/2015 about Prepaid card (Mobile wallet) with U.S. BANCORP (OH).
Issue: Unauthorized transactions/trans. issues

Complaint: I called customer service on XXXX/XXXX/15 to report an unauthorized transaction to my permanent XXXX visa XXXX prepaid visa card. The transaction was for XXXX from XXXX. I WAS TOLD THAT I WAS CURRENTLY UNABLE TO DISPUTE THE TRANSACTION. THAT I WOULD NEED TO CONTACT THEM IN A WEEK OR SO ONCE THE TRANSACTION HAD CLEARED MY ACCOUNT. THEY ALSO SUGGESTED THAT I BLOCK MY CARD. I STATED THAT I NEEDED TO GO TO THE ATM MACHINE AND REMOVE MY MONEY AND THAT I WOULD CALL BACK ONCE I HAD DONE SO TO BLOCK THE CARD. I ARRIVED AT THE ATM MACHINE TO REMOVE MY FUNDS AND MY CARD HAD BEEN BLOCKED. I PLACED A SECOND CALL AND WAS INFORMED SORRY YOU HAVE NO MONEY WE WILL MAIL YOU A NEW CARD. SO NOT ONLY AM I NOT ABLE TO DISPUTE A FRAUDLENT TRANSACTION BUT I HAVE NO MONEY. I WAS INFORMED BY THE ESCALATION DESK TO GO TO A LOCAL CHURCH FOR MONEY OR FOOD AND TO PUT GAS IN MY CAR OR TO BARROW FROM A TRUSTED FRIEND, OR GO TO A CHECK CASHING PLACE. SO HOW CAN THEY BLOCK MY CARD FOR FRAUD IF THEY WONT ALLOW ME TO DISPUTE THE TRANSACTION TILL THE FRAUDULANT PEOPLE ALREADY HAVE MY MONEY. THEN THE FRAUD PROCESS TAKES 14 BUSINESS DAYS AND NO GUARENTEE THAT THEY WILL RULE IN MY FAVOR OR GIVE MY MONEY BACK.
