Consumer complaint received 10/28/2017 about Checking or savings account (Checking account) with U.S. BANCORP (DC).
Issue: Opening an account
Sub-issue: Didn't receive terms that were advertised

Complaint: I opened a US Bank XXXX XXXX account online on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX as part of a {$200.00} opening bonus promotion. The terms of the promotion required either direct deposits totaling {$500.00}, or two or more online bill pay transactions of {$25.00} each or more, within 60 days of account opening. I chose to schedule two bill pays : a {$250.00} payment to one of my XXXX credit cards on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, and another {$250.00} payment to a different XXXX credit card, also on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. The promotion terms state that the {$200.00} bonus is payable within 60 days of satisfying the bill pay requirement, so in my case, by XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I noticed that I had not yet received the bonus, and e-mailed US Bank customer service using their online banking secure e-mail service. The auto-reply promised a response from a US Bank representative within 2-3 business days ; no response was received. I called US Bank customer service by phone on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to follow up. The representative noted that they would create a research request, and that I could expect a response within 2-3 business days ; again, no response was received. I filed a complaint with CFPB on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ( complaint # XXXX XXXX, stating the above facts. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I received a response from US Bank via the CFPB complaints portal that denied my claim based on the patently false assertion that I opened the account on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX - when in fact the account was opened one month prior, on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, which was very much during the eligibility period for the {$200.00} bonus. US Bank has engaged in a bait-and-switch tactic and is now denying me a bonus for which I clearly qualified according to the terms of the promotion. I am therefore refiling this complaint, along with the necessary documentation to refute the false assertion made by US Bank 's representative, XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

In this refiled complaint, I am attaching : ( 1 ) the response from US Bank that contains the false assertion used to deny my initial complaint to CFPB ; ( 2 ) a copy of an e-mail received from a US Bank representative on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to confirm that my account had been successfully opened ; and ( 3 ) copies of my XXXX and XXXX checking account statements, with the dates of each of the qualifying bill pay transactions highlighted. I trust that this documentation clearly demonstrates I complied with the terms of the promotion.

Consumer complaint received 01/27/2018 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with EQUIFAX, INC. (LA).
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint: The original financing was, between and my husband at divorce, the judge award the property and declared that, My ex-husband was responsible for the mortgage and he had full ownership of the property. My credit report states, that the original payment was paid off 100 %, but, I received a letter, asking if I would like to keep the property. I just need to bring the note current. The credit report, also states that the account was a charge off and that a dispute was filed by the grantor ( s ) XXXX XXXX   and resolved by the grantor ( s ) XXXX XXXX is hard to do a investigation, without all parties being involved. I never opened a investigation. And now, I received a call stating the property was being sold, to the highest bidder. 


I have a mortgage reporting information, that is not accurate and the credit bureaus are reporting information, that has been verified. The credit bureaus are required to have the original contract/agreement in their care and retain that information, during the entire reporting term and thereafter. They have never had any documentation, prior to reporting and have incorrect information and as protection provided by the fair credit reporting act, if it is not accurate, if must be removed and never reported, thereafter. 

The mortgage, also contained mortgage insurance, that would cover the mortgage for a year, if the home owner became unemployed and/or a hardship and notified the lender that, there was a hardship and would be unable to make the current payments. The lender charged additional monthly payments, to cover the cost of the secondary insurance, but did not collect the benefits, that were due them and the home owner. Therefore, the late payments, were not accurate, as the insurance should have covered the payments. 

Everything about this reporting, is not in compliance and illegal. 

I am not responsible for the property and the mortgage. The lender is in violation of a court order and has completely, disregarded the courts ruling and has stated they " I have to pay for the property and the courts and no authority over the transaction and the lender ( XXXX XXXX  ) has authority over the courts. 

The property address for the mortgage/loan is XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX, XXXX, LA XXXX.

Consumer complaint received 09-09-2017 about Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports (Credit reporting) with EQUIFAX, INC. (KY).
Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint: After becoming aware of the security breach at Equifax, I checked their website to see if I had been potential affected by the breach. The website stated that it had in fact potentially been affected, but unbeknownst to me, in acquiring this information I had also waived might right to pursue any legal action against them ( this message was not displayed anywhere viewable on the page, but was apparently in the fine print ). Immediately after learning that I had been possibly affected, I attempted to place a freeze on my credit through Equifax online ( this was XX/XX/XXXX ). The website denied the request, stating I would have to send in physical copies of my SSN and other sensitive personal information to complete the request. However, my bank account was immediately charged the {$10.00} fee for a freeze request, despite it not going through. I attempted to reach out to Equifax via phone, email, live chat, and even XXXX with no response. Later on XX/XX/XXXX I called their automated freeze request line and was told that the freeze had been successfully and provided a PIN. My bank account was then charged AGAIN for the freeze request, another {$10.00}. With no way of getting in touch with someone at Equifax, I feel helpless. I was able to speak with one man at the dedicated Equifax Hack information line, but he had no idea what I was even talking about and continued to repeat that " they were working diligently to get the website working. '' I had to hang up after getting nothing else out of him. I 'm terrified that after this massive security breach, even freezing my credit scores wo n't be enough to protect myself, and being charged double by Equifax, who is actually at fault for this, is just adding insult to injury. I do n't know what else to do. Please help.

Consumer complaint received 04/17/2015 about Mortgage (Conventional fixed mortgage) with OCWEN LOAN SERVICING LLC (NY).
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint: I received a Mortgage Escrow Account analysis recently from my mortgage loan servicer Ocwen Loan Servicing. The analysis showed an escrow shortage of XXXX. This amount was broken down as : {$3300.00} escrow advance and {$1700.00} balance needed for the next year. 

I called Ocwen on XXXX XXXX, 2015 and requested they cancel my escrow account. I was told to fax my request and pay the shortage ( {$3300.00} ) and to also make my request in writing. A letter making the same request along with a check for the shortage was overnight mailed on XXXX XXXX. 

Ocwen has cash my check and applied part of it to the XXXX payment in spite of the check being mailed specifically to the Escrow dept. along with a cover letter referencing to be used for the Escrow shortage. 

Today when I called Ocwen to find out what the new mortgage payment would be I was told that no decision was made and to call back. 

I have complied with all of Ocwen requirements to cancel my escrow account but all I getting is the run around from them. 

1. I want the escrow account closed2. I want the entire check amount to be applied to the escrow shortage3. I want a new payment invoice showing only the principal and interest. 
4. And I want all of the above without delay
