Consumer complaint received 2023-06-23 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — VA mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: HI

Complaint narrative:
I keep getting notices from my mortgage company that I dont have an XXXX policy, which I do. I verified on my account via their website that they know who my insurer is. At my first notice, I contacted my insurer and stayed on the phone with them as they faxed my mortgage company my policy. At that time, I also verified that they had the correct contact info, loan number, etc. They already had that information and their system auto sends that to the mortgage company, but either way, it was faxed that day. 

Second notice : I called the mortgage company to ask why I was getting notices. They responded that the notice wasnt for my XXXX policy, but for the condo associations master policy that they had since received and no further action was required. At this time, I also verified that they had received the XXXX policy, which they had. 

Third notice notified me that the mortgage company was going to purchase an XXXX policy since mine had expired and that they would charge me for it and that it would cost me more money. This has occurred over several months. I can not resolve this on my own. Their customer service says one thing, then I receive notices that Im non compliant in the mail. I need help. The company is NEWREZ LLC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023 I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX. I made a payment in an agreement to clear the account. They advised me that once a payment was made that they would request for the tradeline to be removed from my credit report. It has been almost 60 days and they have not done so. I would like to know that the payment was not returned, because the bureaus updated trade line as paid

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I left the military and went to cancel my credit card because they no longer waived the annual fee. American Express said that they would waive my annual fee if I spent XXXX on the card over the XXXX months. I told them that this would only delay me cancelling the card for another year and they said that in that situation I should just call back to see if they have additional promotions. Based on their word, I decided to keep the card for another year. I called back this month to cancel my card and after I cancelled they billed me for XXXX $ and are also holding XXXX $ of my money hostage while also charging me 20 % APR on the remaining balance. They are changing their terms of the agreement and are now saying that since I cancelled the card within 12 months that I didnt follow the terms of the agreement. This doesn't make any sense, I am XXXX and don't even make enough money to pay for this card, they are now charging a XXXX $ annual fee. I would've never renewed the card if they had been honest with me from the beginning. I don't understand how they can legally change the terms of the agreement, this sounds like fraud to me, and they should be held accountable. They are taking advantage of service members that are transitioning out of the service and it is unethical.

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I instructed the bank to write a check for my apartment lease using the bank 's on-line bill pay service for the lease payments due XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. The payment was not delivered on time and each time I was assessed a {$50.00} late fee by my landlord. The Ally Bank online services agreement states that " We will be responsible for any late payment related charges up to {$50.00} should a payment post after its Due Date as long as the payment was scheduled in accordance with the Scheduling a Payment Section above '', and I would like the bank to uphold its side of this agreement. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a message to the bank with the details of the missing payments, copies of statements showing the late fees charged, and a copy of the lease showing the payment due date. On XX/XX/XXXX the bank sent a message back saying that I should expect a substantive response within XXXX hours. I did not hear back from the bank until over XXXX weeks later, though on XX/XX/XXXX a single {$50.00} refund posted to the account. On XX/XX/XXXX I spoke to a representative and clarified that there was still XXXX additional {$50.00} payment missing. On XX/XX/XXXX I called back and the representative said that the case had been earlier closed, and who claimed to reopen it. On XX/XX/XXXX I called again and a representative told me that the case was open but with no ETA and no update. On XX/XX/XXXX, now XXXX months after the initial request, I called again and the representative told me the case had been closed in XXXX and never reopened. Given the runaround and broken promises on this case, I am escalating this issue to the CFPB. The reference number for this issue provided by the bank is XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I have over XXXX score with each agency, no negative information, and have been at same address for 7 years, no name change in my life, have opened many credit and bank accounts without issue over decades. Just this year turned down twice. Contacted Equifax for my credit report, and see they show me at a prior address in XXXX, despite showing I've been paying the mortgage on my current place for over 7 years! They also show me still working for XXXX XXXX, XXXX miles from where I've lived since they eliminated my position in XXXX! Although it is more than 12 years out of date, I only see an option to dispute that I EVER worked there. Called this evening and spoke with XXXX, who said she couldn't drop the XXXX XXXX XXXX erroneous employer until I had a new one to put in it's place, " company policy ''. I can't even figure out how to put a note on the report saying that they are willfully presenting false data, and surely, this is costing me quite a bit of money since I can't open a hi yield checking account due to their misinformation.

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX OPM data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.
