Consumer complaint received 08/23/2017 about Mortgage (Conventional home mortgage) with Caliber Home Loans, Inc. (IL).
Issue: Trouble during payment process

Complaint: I have had a mortgage with Caliber Home Loans since XX/XX/XXXX. We have always paid our mortgage on time, albeit with some payments after the grace period during the month. In XX/XX/XXXX I had to pay a big XXXX XXXX bill and had not received an expected reimbursement from my employer for work related expenses. So we had to pay our mortgage later in the month than expected. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I set up a payment to be made on XX/XX/XXXX. I set the payment up on line and received a confirmation from the company. ( Confirmation number XXXX ). My pay check was deposited in my account on XX/XX/XXXX and I had a balance at that time {$8000.00}. My regular payment is {$2700.00}. 

I had assumed the payment was going to be processed and did n't think about it again until I looked for it having cleared my bank on XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX. I saw that it had not come out yet, but I thought maybe because of the XX/XX/XXXX holiday it had taken longer than usual. I then did n't think to look again until XX/XX/XXXX. When I saw that it still had n't cleared I called the company up to see why they had n't processed the payment. They said they did n't see that I had ever set up a payment. 

I had actually taken a screen shot of the confirmation of the payment and so I asked them to research the payment with my confirmation number. They told me that the payment had been set up and then immediately cancelled by me. I told them that I never cancelled the payment and they had an issue with their computers and was basically accused of being a liar. They told me to call back the next day. I immediately set up the payment again and followed up the next day with another person at Caliber. This person actually did call me a liar and said it would be easy to set up a payment then cancel it and say you had made a payment. I asked for a supervisor and was put on with a gentleman by the name of XXXX. He said he would research the issue and get back to me. He never did, but I was able to get his phone number and call him back. He said he had not heard back from XXXX but would call me when he heard something. I 'm still waiting for that call. I 've left two voice mails for him too. 

This is an awful company who does n't feel accountable to it 's customers and I would go so far as to say has disdain for them. I now have a negative credit report for my mortgage. I am trying to refinance with a new lender. I 'm outraged at being accused of lying about something like this when they made the mistake.

They are not sending the letter. I have asked to have it sent via e-mail as well as fax and neither has been sent.

She works out of her house and supposedly all my information is there on her computer. I 'm not liking this. These people are no better than XXXX and have no desire to help you what so ever.

Consumer complaint received 01/19/2017 about Mortgage (Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)) with JPMORGAN CHASE & CO. (VA).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: It sure would be nice if someone would finally help m for a change. It is obvious that JP Morgan Chase does not give a XXXX about their customers and leaving people homeless. I have written previously and WILL CONTINUE TO REPORT JP Morgan Chase until we receive a satisfactory resolution. 
JP Morgan Chase is the sorriest excuse for a mortgage company. I am writing about the mortgage in the name of my father, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX and I have full authorization to discuss the account. Several years ago we started the process to obtain a loan modification. Of course we were unsuccessful trying it on our own so we hired an attorney to assist us and JP Morgan Chase had requested the same documents from us over and over again which we have sent EVERY document that was requested of us numerous times and in a timely manner. They told us numerous times that they did not receive them and requested them again and again. Evidently they sat somewhere on someone 's desk and did not get processed as they should have. This has been reported before by other mortgage holders with them and JP Morgan Chase has even been fined several times for such. 
Then they basically accused me of lying when I told them that after calling in and making several monthly temporary payments in a row, which we were set up for, one month I called to make the next payment and the person told me that she " could not take the payment because our account was under review for a loan modification '', ( well XXXX, that is why they were temporary payments ) I even gave them the name of the person that told me that and the telephone number that I called so it can be researched since their calls are " recorded for quality assurance and training '' but obviously no one even cares to research any of what I have been reporting over and over again. 
They said that my father whose name the loan is under did not reside at the property so that was a reason why they denied the request. That was not true at the time of the request. 
There is no reason why we could not have been approved for a loan modification to safe our home. We even paid off the second mortgage on the property but that did n't even seem to matter or account for anything. 
The property was scheduled for foreclosure but a representative from JP Morgan Chase told our attorney at the time that the sale was postponed because they were going to review the modification again per the request of our attorney but they still proceeded with the sale anyway. It should have never happened. 
They claim to want to help their customers save their homes but they did not do a single thing to help us save our home and foreclosed on our home leaving me homeless.

Consumer complaint received 03/21/2017 about Consumer Loan (Vehicle loan) with SANTANDER CONSUMER USA HOLDINGS INC. (CA).
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint: On XXXX of XXXX I purchased a XXXX XXXX from XXXX in XXXX ca for {$39000.00}. The car was financed by chrysler capital account # XXXX my payments were $ XXXX for 76 months. In XXXX i was injured on the job and was off for several months. i was unable to make my payments for 3 to 4 months. i was given noticed that my car was up for reposession. I called chrysler capital and was told i needed to make a payment of {$2500.00} on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX for them to stop the repo which i did. They further ask me to continue to make my payments plus extra to cover the late fee 's which i did till i was caught up which I have. In XXXX of XXXX i applied for a consumer loan and was rejected because of the entry chrysler capital made on my credit report. Thinking it was the fact i missed payments with them I understood till i signed up with XXXX and it showed that as of XXXX of XXXX no payment were reflected on my report even till current date and that the account was charged off and that the amount they were charging off was {$34000.00}. Believing it was a mistake i disputed this with XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX and got my payment history from chrysler capital showing my payments, but their reports never changed. I called chryrsler capitals credit dispute section last week XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and was told that they did receive all my payments, but its their policy that if a payment goes 120 day without a payment that charge it 's off and would normally repo the car, but I had made a arrangement with them so they allowed me to keep the car as long as i continue to make my payments. I kept repeating about the charge off and that normally if a car is charged off they take back the car which would be sold at auction and they would write off the difference for a tax loss. the person in the dispute section said in my case my account is actual still active, but its their policy to charge it off anyway which would reflect on my credit report. i ask so from the time of the arrangement till now all those payments except in your payment history will not show on my credit report her reply was " yes its not a law per se just chrysler capitals policy '' I told her that was not fair and the only thing she could say was " I 'm sorry ''. I also ask how long does this charge off stay on my report even as I 'm still paying she stated 7 to 10 years so no matter how many times i dispute it its still a valid claim which they report to the credit bureaus every month. I ask what if I pay the car off her reply was still it will remain. I 'm at a loss as to what to do my XXXX score is improving, but with that charge off on it without a explanation as to why it says charge off I 'm screwed.

Consumer complaint received 12/29/2016 about Credit card () with BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (AK).
Issue: Other

Complaint: XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX I had a couple hardships and was not able to work as many hours in previous years. I kept in contact with my creditors, including Bank of America ( Acct # XXXX XXXX ), stating when I was able, I would resume payment on my account. In XX/XX/XXXX Bank of America via FIA Card Services XXXX. reported a XXXX to the IRS with a XX/XX/XXXX date for {$23000.00}, which I then revised my XX/XX/XXXX taxes to include this XXXX and have been paying the IRS for this forgiven debt income. In XX/XX/XXXX, Bank of America started to report to the credit agencies that I have an open balance of {$24000.00} ( Acct # XXXX XXXX ). I have written Bank of America and received a letter stating that acct # ending in XXXX, case # XXXX has been charged off as of XX/XX/XXXX. Although Bank of America sent this to me, they still confirm to the credit agencies that my account has an open past due amount of {$24000.00} & with each credit card bureau, I have to fill out a form each time they resubmit as each time BOA resubmits my credit score drops significantly. This feels like harassment to me. Even though the credit bureaus note " customer disputes this item '', I still have to resubmit a research request form periodically each time Bank of America reports that I have an open, past due balance.

Consumer complaint received 03/31/2016 about Consumer Loan (Installment loan) with Credit Central Holdings, LLC (TN).
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint: I had XXXX accounts with credit central. In the last few months I got behind. I started paying XXXX check for XXXX accounts each month. I advised the manager XXXX XXXX on several occasions that I was paying XXXX check for XXXX accounts. She continued to insist that I was behind even though I was paying XXXX check for the XXXX accounts each month with late fees included. In XX/XX/XXXX I went to the location I discovered my account was overdrawn and stopped to tell her the check I wrote would bounce and told her I wanted to pay her cash to take care of the bad check, the fees, and bring my account current through XX/XX/XXXX. She said the amount would be XXXX. I had XXXX. She did n't have change and had to go to the bank. She was gone half an hour while I sat waiting. She then took twenty minutes to figure out how to post the money. She printed me XXXX receipts total. First she printed XXXX, XXXX for each account. When I saw she charged me a returned check fee two times for XXXX check she called corporate. They told her there should only be XXXX fee. She then reposted my cash, printed me XXXX more receipts XXXX on each account, and when I saw the remainder on the small XXXX was XXXX I then gave her cash to pay that off. I told her I would be back in XX/XX/XXXX and she agreed. Then three days later I got a call that I owed te bad check and fee when I had just paid it. I advised tee to have XXXX call me. She left a voicemail I tried three days to call back but she was always in lunch as I am only call at lunch when I am not having a business lunch. We played phone tag. After two weeks of working solid teaching classes I called and tee said I owed XXXX my payment on the account not paid was around XXXX. Tee said I owed the bad check, the fee, two payments and late payments and another XXXX she could n't explain. I looked at the receipt XXXX and none reflected I paid XXXX for all of that. The only receipt that was right was the one that showed I paid off XXXX account for XXXX. The others did not add up to XXXX cash I had given her. This manager either posted my money wrong or flat out stole it. I no longer have the receipts but I am sure the company must be able to pull things like that. Two years ago they called me and said I was late on a payment I had given them when i went to pay the payment after cancelling the check they said they did n't have, I showed the girl at the desk that my check was laying right there on her desk ( the XXXX I had paid to cancel ). I drove up there on lunch to give them something they already had. I should have filed a complaint then but did n't.

Consumer complaint received 10/27/2017 about Debt collection (Other debt) with I.Q. DATA INTERNATIONAL, INC. (CA).
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged

Complaint: I.Q Data International collecting a disputed debt on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, has reporting an amount due as delinquent debt to the credit reporting agencies. The contested debt is basically for " pest remediation '' and the lease provides that such amounts are chargeable only based on the " negligence '' of the tenant. The disputed debt is therefore not a voluntary credit transaction under CA law. XXXX : XXXX case. 

Nonetheless, I offered to pay the full amount of the debt upon the offer of the IQ Date Intl agent that she would remove the tradeline. However, the agent said this offer was only available if paid within the next hour. I requested that the terms of this agreement be put in writing and then I would pay the debt so as to remove the tradeline. The agent refused to send a offer letter, or letter confirming the oral representations. She also failed to provide the mini miranda disclosure and said she only needed to make that disclosure on the first call with me earlier. The agent also acted in a rude and unprofessional manner and essentially hung on me.
