Consumer complaint received 04/26/2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with EQUIFAX, INC. (PA).
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint: Back in  XXXX  o f this year I informed the credit bureaus that I received a number of Inquiries over 1 week period that I did not submit. I was told that I must get a letter from each inquirer in order for it to be removed. Well I have in the past week gathered all the letters representing all the inquires and have scanned them in and uploaded them in order to get the Credit reporting agencies to remove the inquiries. I was told by many of them it will take up to 30 days BUT I CAN NOT WAIT. I hope with these letters they can expedite in my behalf and just remove them manually.

Consumer complaint received 09-12-2016 about Credit reporting () with TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (WA).
Issue: Improper use of my credit report
Sub-issue: Report improperly shared by CRC

Complaint: Please read my attachments We contacted XXXX XXXX for full package with telephone, cable, Internet the whole nine yards. When the services finally got here we got basic television, no internet what so ever. We were transferred to XXXX telephone for services. When the first bill arrived there was XXXX separate billings on all XXXX accounts. It all started with XXXX. We contacted the credit card that we used to set up services. They informed us that service was stopped due to fraud by XXXX XXXX, and misrepresentation of their services. At that time we thought the case was closed. We were assured there was XXXX billing. The equipment was obviously old and covered in dust, the channels keep switching on their own and the cable box kept going on and off on its own. The person we complained with at XXXX was extremely rude and we just cancelled the service. The person we spoke to there assured us there was a zero balance. We also had to set up XXXX appointments before they came. No communication between their offices

Consumer complaint received 02/22/2017 about Mortgage (FHA mortgage) with Selene Finance LP (NY).
Issue: Application, originator, mortgage broker

Complaint: Well, they 've all come out of the woodwork since we 've filed chapter XXXX - XXXX ( atty for all ) ; XXXX, Selene Finance, XXXX. All trying to get a piece of the pie. As I 've informed you in prior correspondence, this mortgage was fraudulent from the " getgo ''. Charges on my mortgage statement were unverified ( i.e., no trustee ( non securitization from XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX ), no deliverance of deed ; no title policy, and an impostor posing as the lawyer of record for closing ( a letter should be in your file from the closing atty reading he was not present at the closing and he denies the signature being his - FRAUD ). I 've tried over the years to explain these fraudulent acts to XXXX, Selene, and now XXXX ( though we have not received anything personally from XXXX and no Assignment is listed in the county clerk 's office. ) The only letter I received with anything to do with XXXX was a letter dtd XX/XX/XXXX XXXX, which I received last month - XX/XX/XXXX - copy of envelope attached ). As you can read on the letter, my address is erroneous ( XXXX ). They also have me address on another letter from XXXX, representing Loancare, dtd XX/XX/XXXX as my address being XXXX. I guess I reside at the courthouse. No wonder I had a visitor at my door trying to get in because she was told by XXXX or XXXX that the home was empty - LIARS. How can you turn acts that are illegal, and try to make them legal. Perhaps the courts turn a blind eye. We feel we should have been granted a " RESTRUCTURING '' of the Mortgage because of the numerous scratches & dents, yet these entities refuse to work with us. After XXXX duped us into a fraudulent Forbearance and scammed us into thinking we just might get the new payment, they ripped that rug from under us when at the end of it, demanded all monies, even though our situation had n't changed. Mind you, this Forbearance money we paid was deemed " unapplied '' and the fees just kept on coming. What a racket!! We wish we truly knew whom owned our Mortgage - they all send us that one page from the mortgage contract and a copy of the non-wet Note. I have attached letters from all three entities ( I believe XXXX is also probably an investor since he seems to represent them all ). XXXX tried to foreclose in XXXX ( when securitization actually took place ), to no avail ; then they tried again by substituting Selene ; but for some reason the court denied it. Btw, it was not an " arms-length '' transaction. These entities want to lay claim to collateral that none actually paid. Criminals. I guess Selene is trying to clean it all up. See you in court.

Consumer complaint received 09-12-2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with EQUIFAX, INC. (CA).
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint: Equifax mishandled my information which has led to a breach that puts myself and millions of others at potential risk. I am extremely disappointed with how Equifax has handled reporting this breach. Very little was done to notify the public for nearly a month after the breach was detected. I received no email, letter, or phone call and instead had to discover it via social media. Equifax first learned of this hack on XXXX XXXX 2017. 

Going forward Equifax should be required to monitor every account and notify victims if any fraud occurs. Credit fraud protection should be mandatory for every account, not an option for the consumer to have deal with.

Consumer complaint received 08-01-2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (MA).
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 had sent a request to all XXXX credit bureaus to remove the tax liens currently on my credit report because they do not meet the criteria to be posted on my credit reports since the reporting agencies updated their policies regarding The minimum information needed for a tax lien to be included on a credit report on XXXX XXXX 2017. Trans-Union and XXXX  both came back that the information on the tax liens was " updated '' and still remained on my credit report while XXXX found that there was not sufficient enough information for the Liens to remain on my credit and it was removed. If XXXX found that there was not enough information from The courts where the Liens were filed, then there is no reason why transunion and XXXX seem to think there is enough information given the information comes directly from the same court No matter which agency was To look at the information. Instead the third party who reported the Lien to XXXX and Trans-union just updated the information I provided to prove their was n't enough information in their own system and sent it back saying the data was " updated '' this is illegal and the information needs to be checked against the court record from the court system only.

Issue: Credit monitoring or identity theft protection services

I never contacted TransUnion to set this service up. The only way I even discovered what it was is because the bank statement says " TU *TRANSUNION XXXX CA '' and on their website it looks like their monitoring service is the same {$19.00} price.

Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint: I am a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and I have a Military Star Card credit card. The Military Star credit card program is administered by the Exchange Credit Program or ECP. The Army Airforce Exchange Service ( AAFES ) is custodian for the Exchange Credit Program Military Star Credit card. The ECP further reports the payment history and status of each military star card to XXXX  credit bureau. Although all other military servicemembers and veterans military star cards are reported monthly to XXXX, the military Exchange Credit Program and the Army Airforce Exchange Service continues to discriminate against me by willfully failing to report my Military Star Credit Card excellent credit history to XXXX. The ECP and XXXX administrators are willfully conducting unfair pattern and practice against my excellent military star card payment history further preventing its contribution to my XXXX  credit rating. The ECP and XXXX  further reported my Military Star card to Transunion but they added a fictitious late payments for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX on my Transunion credit report as admonishment because of my complaints. My Star card is paid by automatic debit from my direct deposit checking account monthly and it is impossible to receive a late payment. My military star card has always been paid by direct debit from my direct deposit checking since it was opened.

Consumer complaint received 12-01-2016 about Debt collection (Other (i.e. phone, health club, etc.)) with I.C. System, Inc. (GA).
Issue: Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not mine

Complaint: XXXX continued to bill me erroneously for service after I physically visited them in XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and cancelled my service and turned in my equipment. XXXX confirmed by phone finally in XX/XX/XXXX they had located paperwork indicating I had cancelled my service and should not have been billed. The paperwork was sold to collection agencies - this is # XXXX and is now being erroneously reported as a collection on my credit report. IC Systems is falsely reporting a collection for a debt I do not owe. My XXXX account was paid through XX/XX/XXXX and service was cancelled in person on XX/XX/XXXX. If anything, they owe me money. I have had over XXXX scores for over 10 years and now Equifax score is XXXX. This is simply not right and not fair. XXXX tells me this is too old to retrieve records since it 's over 2 years. The collection companies automatically think the consumer is guilty. My credit report says otherwise. I pay my bills and I pay them on time and often ahead - way ahead. I want this collection removed from my credit report and my credit score restored. I do not owe anyone anything! For XXXX years I 've had to put up with these collection agencies calling constantly and sending letters trying to collect a XXXX debt I do not owe.

Consumer complaint received 05/21/2015 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with Ditech Financial LLC (NJ).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: I hired an attorney to handle settling a mortgage with Green Tree Servicing. The mortgage in question was never recorded, has not created a lien for the property and is an unsecured debt. There is also a recorded XXXX Bank mortgage on the property that is currently in foreclosure. This mortgage secures an outstanding note in the amount of approximately {$190000.00}. Although the XXXX Mortgage secures {$190000.00}, the property is not worth any more than {$120000.00}. I therefore made attempts to settle the Green Tree mortgage. However, not only has Green Tree Servicing denied any and all of my multiple attempts to settle this matter, but they now ignore all communications from my attorney. All I want is to smoothly settle this otherwise worthless mortgage so I can move on with modifying the XXXX mortgage and get on with my life.

Issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint: Hello : I 've been to Bank of America at XXXX New York XXXX three times in the past 6 months to cash a large check up to {$5000.00}. Each time, I was treated with extremely rude disrespect by that branch manager. He accused me of trying to cash a check that was n't real and treated me as if I were a criminal. Each check I submitted for remittance was indeed legitimate, but I had to go elsewhere and spend money to cash them. I truly hope that the manager of this particular branch gets a lesson on how to treat customers.

Consumer complaint received 05/27/2016 about Mortgage (VA mortgage) with LENDER LIVE (CA).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: My mortgage was serviced by LenderLive. I was current on the loan as of XXXX XXXX but I was out of work and using savings to pay. I agreed to a forbearance plan with LenderLive in XXXX XXXX. I explained that I need a security clearance to get work and therefore needed to avoid any negative credit reporting for the mortgage. They told me that they would not do negative credit reporting while I was on the forbearance plan. 

The forbearance plan was supposed to last for six months, until XXXX XXXX, XXXX. At that point I would enter into a repayment agreement with LenderLive according to the plan. Instead, LenderLive reported on my credit as if I was missing payments during the forbearance plan. I noticed the negative reporting in XXXX XXXX. I was looking at my credit because I was going up for security clearance for a job. When I called LenderLive about it they refused to fix the credit reporting. They had previously been ridiculously rude to me over the phone -- they even insulted me for being a XXXX veteran. 

In XXXX XXXX LenderLive transferred my loan to XXXX. XXXX did not have any information about the forbearance plan. As far as they were concerned, I was six months behind on my mortgage. After the transfer, LenderLive refused to talk to me about the issue or to fix it. They just directed me to XXXX. XXXX did n't have the records and did n't know what I was talking about. 

I want LenderLive to correct the information reported on my credit to reflect that I was on a forbearance plan and was not responsible for the payments from XXXX XXXX through XXXX XXXX. Therefore I should not have missed payments recorded for those dates. I would also like an apology for their insults of my status as a XXXX veteran.
