Consumer complaint received 10-08-2015 about Mortgage (Conventional adjustable mortgage (ARM)) with Ditech Financial LLC (CA).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: GreenTree/Ditech Loan # XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX CA XXXXThere are numerous issues with this short sale file:1 ) Loss mitigator, XXXX XXXX XXXX claims that Green Tree and Ditech are XXXX different companies -- - they are not, they just changed their name - this is extremely deceptive and this is what they are telling people that call in. XXXX 's intimation to us was that any illegal acts that Green Tree committed were water under the bridge as Ditech is a different company - this is quite possibly XXXX the most ridiculous things I have heard. 

2 XXXX Green Tree/Ditech - illegally threaten our sellers and told them they had to vacate the property prior to the property being foreclosed on. They did this on or about XXXX 2014 claiming that they ( XXXX Tree/Ditech XXXX owned the property -- - our clients do not speak XXXX were bullied into vacating the property, this is something the Green Tree/Ditech has a history of doing. 

3 ) Green Tree/Ditech then continued to postpone the auction -- - they did not own the property as they has told our clients, and continued to fraudulently collect servicing fees XXXX -- - defrauding the XXXX taxpayer and the federal government. They claimed that the postponement was due to our clients bankruptcy .... Unfortunately for Green Tree/Ditech, this is yet another lie as the BK closed over 1 years ago. -- - this is a wide spread problem with Green Tree/Ditech as is evidenced by the XXXX complaints online. 

4 ) In violation of State and Federal statutes, Green Tree/Ditech did not reach out to the home owner and the homeowner only became aware that they still owned the property when a notice of trustee sale was issued on the property. I find it rather disgusting that Green Tree/Ditech would think it is ok to do this to a XXXX family only because they a ) do n't speak XXXX well ; and b ) do n't have the means to fight. This is a disgusting practice that they CFPB needs to STOP! 

5 ) We request that the CFPB ask Green Tree/Ditech why they would lie to a home owner and tell them that they owned a property when XXXX Green Tree/Ditech XXXX did not. Why they would not contact the homeowner for workout options. Why they would continue to collect servicing fees from a federal entity for over 1 year XXXX they already owned it ... or so they told the home owner ) without foreclosing increasing urban blight and defrauding XXXX.

Consumer complaint received 01-02-2018 about Credit card or prepaid card (General-purpose credit card or charge card) with CITIBANK, N.A. (VA).
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers
Sub-issue: Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card

Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX I went in to a Best Buy store to purchase a new labtop. 

During purchase the supervisor encouraged us to sign up for the Best Buy credit card advertising it was 0 % interest on ALL purchases for 12 months. I asked for clarification and to confirm it was 0 % interest on ALL purchases- the supervisor confirmed this information. 

Reviewing my past two months statements I have been charged interest on all purchases made after the initial purchase which is not what was advertised. 

During transaction I never had the opportunity to review terms or read " fine print ''. I was lied to by a best buy supervisor.

Consumer complaint received 11/19/2015 about Bank account or service (Other bank product/service) with First Data Corporation (GA).
Issue: Making/receiving payments, sending money

Complaint: I have a Health Savings Account ( HSA ) with a local bank. Sometime early in the year the bank was sold to another regional bank. I had always paid for my prescription drugs with a check from the Health Savings Account. Since the change to the new bank XXXX of the local drug stores - XXXX and XXXX will now not accept my check from my HSA. At issue is Tele-Check Services which both of them use to validate checks. I talked with the agent from Tele-Check who said that they did not accept checks from HSA accounts. I have used an HSA account for over 5 years before writing checks for prescriptions, doctor visits, etc. Once my bank was bought they returned a few checks and I paid both since they were written on the previous bank check. The bank said that is no issue because they still honored the old check and the account or bank routing had not changed. I am mystified why these drug stores would use a check validation system that is so clueless about HSA accounts. TeleCheck even tried to say it was a XXXX drug company problem. I knew that was not true because they denied it at XXXX also. I am responsible for funding my own HSA so I ended up having to put the cost of medicine ( not cheap ) on my personal credit card which defeats the purpose of having a tax free HSA.

Consumer complaint received 09-08-2017 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 personal information including name, social security number, address, birthdate, driver 's license number, and possibly more. They allowed a data breach to occur in XX/XX/XXXX, and they confirmed I could be affected on their website, www.equifaxsecurity2017.com. They have put myself and millions of others at risk of identity theft/fraud due to negligent security protocols in handling consumer information. They are further attempting to capitalize on the situation by signing injured parties they are responsible for up for " trial periods '' of their ID protection services. The negligent loss of personal information of nearly 200 million consumers is unconscionably unethical, and it is further unreasonable that they are not directly notifying every single person affected by this incident.

Consumer complaint received 06/17/2015 about Mortgage (Home equity loan or line of credit) with ONEMAIN FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, LLC. (CA).
Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint: Co-owners ' rights and obligations can be altered by a written agreement. The rules described below apply unless a written agreement exists that provides differently. 
TENANCY IN COMMONExcept for married couples or registered domestic partners -- who are presumed to acquire all property as community property -- persons who acquire real property jointly normally own the property as tenants in common, unless the instrument under which the property is transferred to them provides otherwise. All co-tenancies between unmarried persons that are not expressly made joint tenancies or partnerships are tenancies in common. A few of the key features of a tenancy in common are : Ownership and Transfer. Unlike joint tenants, tenants in common can own equal or unequal interests in the real property they acquire, and may acquire their interests from different sources at different times. Each tenant in common may sell or encumber his or her interest without the knowledge, approval or consent of the other co-tenants. A tenant in common has no right to convey any other co-tenant 's interest, and any such attemptedTHE PROPERTY IN QUESTION WAS IN A TRUST WHERE ALL BENEFICIARIES WERE TENANTS IN COMMON INCLUDING THE FORMER TRUSTEE ( BENEFICIARY ) BUT AMERICAN GENERAL FINANCIAL/SPRINGLEAF ENCUMBER THE ENTIRE REAL PROPERTY WITH AN UNFAVORAL LOAN PER THE PROBATE COURT, WE HAVE TRIED OVER AND OVER TO FIND OUT HOW THE FORMER TRUSTEE GOT THE LIEN WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF THE BALANCE OF THE BENEFICIARIES. HE DID NOT REPORT THE SETTLOR/TRUSTEE 'S DEATH FOR ONE YEAR 4 MONTHS AFTER SHE DIED AND 5 MONTHS AFTER HE TOOK OUT THE LOAN ON THE PROPERTY. THE REAL PROPERTY IN THE TRUST WAS THROWN INTO FORCLOSURE BECAUSE NOW SPRINGLEAF FINANCIAL WOULD NOT WORK WITH THE NEW TRUSTEE OF THE TRUST.But that does not mean that the other beneficiaries are responsible for that loan that is his along even though he was theTrustee he is also a beneficiary and must not be partial in dealing with the trust property '' IN THE TRUST IT STATES THAT IF ONE OF THE BENEFICIAIRES DIE THEIR " ISSUE '' IS TO INHERITE THEIR SHARE, Equal Right to Occupy the Entire Property. Although tenants in common can own unequal interests, unless agreed otherwise in writing all tenants in common have an equal right to possess and use the entire jointly owned property. No co-tenant may exclude any other co-tenant from any part of the jointly owned property. Because all owners have an equal right to occupy and use the entire property, no tenant in common may collect rent from another co-tenant. 
THE COURT ORDERED XXXX TO PAY RENT BECAUSE HE HAS ALREADY MOVED HIS FAMILY AND HIMSELF IN AND HAS NOT COMPENSATED ANY OF THE BENEFICIARIESNo Survivorship Right. A key feature distinguishing a tenancy in common from a joint tenancy or community property interest is that a tenants in common interest carries with it no survivorship

Consumer complaint received 03/31/2016 about Credit reporting () with Experian Information Solutions Inc. (VA).
Issue: Credit reporting company's investigation
Sub-issue: Problem with statement of dispute

Complaint: EXPERIAN Complaint dated XXXX XXXX, 2016 ; Experian failed to respond to XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) reporting FRAUD on my credit reports. Similar complaints sent to XXXX and XXXX. Both Equifax and XXXX have removed XXXX from my credit reports. 
My experience with Experian has been total abuse and refusal to investigate my complaints. And/or to reinvestigate. In that both XXXX and XXXX have taken action on reinvestigations, obviously Experian fails to see the logic of the FRAUDULENT reporting. 
XXXX has been approached and also refuses to correct or remove my report.

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

Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX, Equifax announced that a " cybersecurity incident '' compromised confidential information including social security numbers, birth dates, addresses, drivers license numbers, and credit card numbers for approximately 143 million U.S. consumers ( or roughly 66 % of all adult Americans, as I understand it ). 

After checking with Equifax, I have learned that my information was compromised. 

This " cybersecurity incident '' was discovered on XX/XX/XXXX, and the company allowed over a month to elapse - a month during which my social security number and a handful of other identifying information could have been used to impersonate me - without notifying me in any way ; then when they did notify the public it was through a general message on their website with no direct contact to let me know that the press release had been published. If it were n't for traditional and social media, I would not have even known that my identity had been compromised well over a month ago due to the negligence of Equifax. 

Again, despite having access to my address, to multiple phone numbers, many ways to contact me, Equifax decided to say nothing publicly for over a month, and then to issue a public statement with no way of me knowing that the statement was made if not for third parties. 

Equifax has offered a free year of credit fraud monitoring, but frankly this is not a solution. My identifying information can not be recovered, and I will still be at risk for far longer than Equifax is willing to monitor my information for possible fraud. To ensure that my identity is secure after the one year, I would have to enroll in a paid program - effectively rewarding Equifax with my business for its negligence.
