Consumer complaint received 07-12-2015 about Credit reporting () with TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL).
Issue: Incorrect information on credit report
Sub-issue: Account status

Complaint: By the attached Claim XXXX, I paid the entire Proof of Claim student loan through a trustee of the US Bankruptcy Court for the XXXX District of Florida. The below NOTES are in the PAYEE NOTES of CLAIM XXXX of my subject case number. It is plain as day that XXXX XXXX sent to the trustee, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a notice on XX/XX/XXXX to transfer the student loan to the Florida Department of Education. Then on XX/XX/XXXX the Florida Office of Student Financial Assistance sent a notice to the Trustee, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, to transfer the Claim XXXX Student Loan to XXXX. The following is a direct copy from my Chapter XXXX case : PAYEE NOTESXX/XX/XXXX COMPLETED NOTICE OF CHANGE OF ADDRESS. BRXX/XX/XXXX REVIEWED NTC OF TRANSFER WITH WAIVER FROM FLORIDA OFF OF STUDENT FINANCIAL ASST TO XXXX. UPDATED TO REFLECT..FWD TO BR TO REVIEW ... ASXX/XX/XXXX RCVD NTC OF TRANSFER FROM XXXX XXXX TO FLORIDA DEPT OF EDUCATION. UPDATED TO REFLECT ON XX/XX/XXXX. FWD TO BR TO XXXX original creditor, XXXX XXXX transferred XXXX XXXX loan to the Florida Dept of Education and 3 months later the student loan was transferred to XXXX. Upon discharge of my Chapter XXXX case, I received a letter from XXXX that I was in arrears on the student loan payment to a service provider XXXX. XXXX is not listed as a creditor on my Chapter XXXX case, but has acted as a debt collection agent for XXXX. My attorney advised me to look to see if there were any " Unclaimed Funds '' in an account with the US Bankruptcy Court for the XXXX District of Florida. There are in fact {$2600.00} in that account as shown in the XXXX attachment. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX filed an Application for Unclaimed Funds shown as the XXXX attachment. Additionally XXXX informed me by email letter, the XXXX attachment, that they were asking XXXX to return the loan and that I should dispute the erroneous claim by XXXX on my XXXX credit report bureaus XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. My contention is this, why am I being penalized on my XXXX credit reports for delinquent payments on a student loan that I fully paid through the XXXX XXXX plan through a trustee of the US Bankruptcy Court for the XXXX District of Florida? The issue is obviously not with me but between XXXX, XXXX and the US Bankruptcy court for those funds. Yet my credit scores are in the low XXXX because of this and I have a black mark on my credit reports. And why is XXXX listed on my credit reports when they are not the creditor? This is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and Fair Debt Collection Act. This is a total fiasco.

Consumer complaint received 04-05-2017 about Mortgage (VA mortgage) with NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION (CO).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: My family and I have had issues paying our mortgage in the past year. My husband is a XXXX vet and has recently had XXXX and is currently unemployed. We have filed with Navy federal with the loss mitigation department to help push back some of our payments to the back of our loan. Last year when we filed we were asked numerous times to resend paperwork and proof of hardship that we sent in. NFCU was asking us to resend paystubs and our taxes even though they had all these documents from our refinance. We spend time sending and resending all the information needed over and over again but never had the right combination of documents completed according to NFCU. This year I filed again for loss mitigation as my husband had XXXX and is unable to work. NFCU has asked us to send them a hardship letter and my husbands pay stubs again recently even though I made it expressively known that he is unemployed. A few months back we owed the bank over XXXX dollars and I paid down that debt to XXXX. While we are in the process with loss mitigation I am told I am not able to make partial payments and in the same breath they ask us to pay a month in a half of mortgage owed- this is a partial payment thus they are going against their own philosophy. We also received a notice of foreclosure yesterday. I am just in shock as I thought that while we are in loss mitigation and potential forbearance they can not foreclose, not to mention I owe less then a few months ago. We have told them that starting next month we will be able to start making our regular payments as scheduled since my husband will finally receive his VA XXXX back. These 2 years have been extremely hard on us financially and I thought that banks should make an effort to assist us. I have XXXX small kids and with a prospect of losing my home we would just be tossed out on the street like garbage. Please help.

Issue: Unauthorized transactions/trans. issues

Complaint: I ordered a XXXX Tablet for {$53.00} at XXXX on XXXX XXXX and ended up cancelling it the same day. XXXX confirmed that they sent the money back and that I would have to contact my bank about the matter.

I told the teller it was the XXXX day and she said it should be released by the end of the day.

Consumer complaint received 08-03-2016 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with Ditech Financial LLC (MI).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: My automatic payment from XXXX Bank to Ditech Financial was not applied to my account on XXXX XXXX for XXXX XXXX 's mortgage payment. I was not aware of this until XXXX XXXX. I had XXXX Bank fax over proof of payment on XXXX XXXX. After contacting multiple customer services representatives, including XXXX XXXX, my first account supervisor on XXXX and XXXX. I was told it was being processed. XXXX Bank resent the proof of payment as we were told by XXXX, a customer service rep, that the original was unreadable. This was done on XXXX XXXX. After speaking to XXXX in South Dakota ( XXXX, his supervisor sent an e-mail to expedite this ) on XXXX XXXX and XXXX in XXXX on XXXX XXXX, I was told that the ball got dropped and they are now processing that payment. Finally, as of XXXX XXXX, the payment was credited to my account as an " unapplied amount. '' My payment history is now showing a missed payment for XXXX XXXX rather than applying the misapplied amount to that payment. As a result, I am now receiving collection notices via phone, mail and on my front door for a missing payment that was never missing. I have also continued making on time payments since that date and my account payment history reflects this. My current statement shows my next payment is due XXXX XXXX and I assumed my account was current. However, the collection notices are still being sent and I am worried about the effect this will have on my credit as well as my peace of mind. There are many notes attached to my account at Ditech that support the fact that the fault of the missing payment is not mine and the customer service reps have all validated this. However, the collections department does not seems to be aware of this glitch.

Consumer complaint received 03/17/2017 about Debt collection (Federal student loan) with TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC (CA).
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint: Transworld Systems Inc. contacted me mid XX/XX/XXXX stating my debt with them ( I had a student loan default ) was bought by " another company '' but TSI was continuing the collection services. TSI said they would no longer honor my previous payment arrangement of {$120.00} per month which I have been paying consistently since the debt was bought by TSI. The telephonist was super aggressive and said they would only consider a monthly payment of {$280.00}. They said they would contact my mother ( who was the cosigner ) and begin trying to collect from her and they would not stop until the debt was collected in full. The debt amount is around XXXX. I bargained them down to a figure of {$140.00} per month. I then get a letter from TSI on XX/XX/XXXX ( about a month later ) stating they would " honor '' my " previous payment arrangement. '' I suspect they have this scam going where they attack people and get them locked into a new higher payment schedule before they send out any letters stating they 're obliged to honor previous arrangements.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint: I was anticipating my enrollment in a credit card program that would have closed my credit cards.

I called and tried closing my credit cards on 3 separate occasions. One time on  XXXX XXXX and again on XXXX XXXX and finally on XXXX XXXX when it was finally closed by the credit card company. Whenever I tried closing the credit card, I would inform that to the customer service representative of my intentions and they would abruptly end my calls. Finally, on the day it had been closed by the credit card company, I was told that it had already been closed.

Consumer complaint received 01-08-2016 about Debt collection (Credit card) with ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC. (OH).
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint: I have to choose XXXX of the XXXX options given in the form at CFPB to describe my issue, but I am not sure my issue matched any of them well, since my issue is related to a time-barred debt as described below. 

Midland Funding LLC ( " Midland '' ) is deceptively collecting or attempting to collect from me a time-barred debt through arbitration at the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( " XXXX '' ), and thus violates the consent order issued by CFPB on XXXX XXXX 2015 against Midland ( and a few other debt collectors, defined together as " Encore '' in the consent order ). 

On or about XXXX XXXX 2015, Midland via its attorney filed to XXXX a counterclaim against me in connection with collecting or attempting to collect from me a credit card debt. This alleged credit card account is a " debt '' as defined in the consent order issued by CFPB against Midland on XXXX XXXX 2015. I, as a natural person allegedly obliged to pay this debt, is a " consumer '' as defined in this CFPB consent order. Midland is a " debt collector '' as defined in the CFPB consent order.

Consumer complaint received 07/24/2017 about Checking or savings account (Other banking product or service) with WEBSTER BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (MN).
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Fee problem

Complaint: I started my current job about a year ago. Around that time I submitted a form to transfer money from XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, WI XXXX to my new employer 's HSA at XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX pretended that they never got the form to transfer the money to my new HSA and instead kept deducting a monthly management fee. I called a few times and they always said that the transfer was " being processed ''. After months of the run-around, they claimed that the form did not have all the information necessary so on X/X/17 I submitted a new form. Again, after a month of waiting they did not transfer the money or call me to explain why they were keeping ( and slowly draining ) my account. When I called XXXX XXXX, they said they sent the form 3 times and had no idea why XXXX XXXX  was refusing to initiate the transfer. So, we called and supposedly straightened this out with XXXX XXXX  customer service. Everything was supposed to be all set. Today I called again because the money had still not been transferred. I was told now that the form submitted was " illegible '' and that they had tried to call me but " there was no option to leave a message ''. That is just a straight up lie. I have voicemail set up on my cell phone. Now they tell me they are going to charge me a {$25.00} fee to close my account or transfer the money. This is ridiculous. They are leeching the account maintenance fee off of the account and trying to make it impossible to transfer the money out so I get bored and just decide to let them keep it. The fees are ridiculous and the refusal to transfer the money is exactly the kind of abusive practice that the CFPB is designed to combat. Please investigate. I am sure that they are making a large profit off of this account maintenance fee scam they are running.
