Product: Mortgage — Other type of mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Paying off the loan
Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
We have a commercial XXXX loan with US Bank. The interest rate recently adjusted in XX/XX/year> and we were never notified about the rate adjustment. The term sheet we have with the Bank states that there will not be any prepayment penalty if the loan is paid off XXXX  days preceeding the adjustment date. Since we were never notified about the rate adjustment, we have been deprived of the opportunity to pay off the loan without incurring prepayment penalty. 

The answer I got from the XXXX is that they are not required to notify borrower of the rate adjustment on XXXXXXXXXXXX  loans XXXX

Company: LJ Ross Associates
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX sent this debt to a previous collector. I made payment arrangements and on time payments as agreed for XXXX year. LJ Ross then took over the debt and contacted me by email. I promptly contacted them and made payment arrangements and an initial payment out of good faith. The company then reported to the credit bureau that this was a new collection and severely damaged my credit score. I contacted LJ Ross and asked them to correct their mistake, but was told that they were in their rights to report it. The customer service representative then offered to remove the report as a courtesy if the debt was paid in full right then. This is obvious unethical practice to persuade me to pay in full instead of completing the agreed upon payment plan. I have already contacted XXXX  and filed a dispute for inaccurate reporting by LJ Ross, but they should also be held accountable for trying to strong arm someone that is making good faith efforts to repay a debt.

Complaint narrative:
I have repeatedly attempted to have these discrepancies reviewed and corrected, yet no significant action has been taken. Despite submitting all required documentation and following up multiple times, the inaccuracies on my credit report remain unresolved. This prolonged issue has led to ongoing financial strain and has severely impacted my well-being. The process of addressing these errors has been both frustrating and mentally exhausting. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a credit report that accurately reflects my financial history, including the timely correction or removal of any outdated or incorrect information. I am urging you to take immediate action to either update or delete the reported late payment entries. Continued failure to act would be a direct violation of my rights under federal law. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and expect a timely resolution.

Issue: Repossession — Account reinstatement or redemption after repossession
Company: Bridgecrest Acceptance Corporation
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My vehicle was impounded on XX/XX/year>. Due to my XXXX, I was unable to pick it up immediately but planned to retrieve it on XX/XX/year>. I was never informed of any deadline to remove the vehicle from impound, and no 30-day cutoff or extended period was disclosed to me.

When I contacted the tow yard on XX/XX/XXXX to arrange pickup, I was told that my lienholder had already removed the vehicle without providing me with any notice or opportunity to reinstate. This directly contradicted what my lienholder told me during a call on XX/XX/XXXX, where I was provided a reinstatement quote and told to expect a reinstatement letter in the mail. 
I had also disclosed my XXXX and requested reasonable accommodations, including extended time, adjusted fees, and reasonable notice. My request was ignored, and instead, the lienholder repossessed the vehicle from impound without any communication.

I believe this constitutes : Failure to provide notice of intent to repossess ( UCC Article 9 ).

Violation of ECOA ( discrimination based on XXXX, denial of accommodation ). 
Violation of XXXX Title III, as no interactive process occurred regarding my accommodation request.

Unfair and deceptive practices, as I was misled about reinstatement and denied the opportunity to act.

This has caused significant financial harm and loss of transportation. I request immediate corrective action, reinstatement rights, and regulatory investigation.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On Friday, XX/XX/year>, I deposited a $ XXXXXXXX U.S. Treasury check ( IRS refund ) into my Capital One checking account via mobile deposit. Capital One placed a hold until Tuesday, XX/XX/year> ( and stated possibly longer ).

Under Federal Reserve Regulation CC, 12 CFR 229.10 ( c ) ( 1 ) ( i ), banks are required to make at least the first {$6700.00} of a U.S. Treasury check available by the next business day when deposited into the payees own account. Since I deposited Friday morning, the next business day was Monday, XX/XX/year>. 

Despite my requests, Capital One has refused to release any portion of the funds until at least Tuesday the XXXX, which is a violation of Reg CC. I specifically : -Called Capital One and requested hold removal for at least {$5500.00} ( since I hadnt realized the federal regulation was updated to a higher amount of {$6700.00} as of XX/XX/year> ) and was denied -Cited the federal regulation and requested escalation to a supervisor and again requested hold removal of partial funds -Was told by this supervisor that Capital One has its own laws it follows and that the hold would remain in place until at least Tuesday, possibly longer -Advised the supervisor I would be submitting a formal complaint to OCC and CFPB -Requested escalation to higher supervisor as told there was no higher authority I could escalate to -Requested to speak to any other peer supervisor and was told this wasnt allowed -Requested written documentation of the denial and was told that would take 30 days to receive by mail This appears to be a direct violation of Reg CC, which does not give banks discretion to delay availability of the first {$6700.00} of a Treasury check beyond the next business day . Capital Ones refusal to comply, and its claim that it follows its own laws, is troubling and appears noncompliant with federal banking regulations.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Ive recently discovered several late payment notations on my credit report that are completely false, and I want to make it clear that I will not tolerate these inaccuracies being used to misjudge my financial character. These harmful entries are dragging down my credit score, affecting my access to opportunities, and putting unnecessary strain on my mental and emotional health. Some of these alleged late payments were in fact made on time, while others may stem from clerical mistakes or internal processing delays that were never communicated to me.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that every piece of data on a consumer report be factually accurate and verifiable by original documentation. That means if these late payment entries can not be backed up with real, dated billing statements or signed agreements, they should not be reported at all. I am demanding that these entries be immediately corrected or removed, depending on what the documentation proves. If the credit reporting agencies or furnishers continue to ignore this matter, I will interpret that as a willful and deliberate violation of federal lawand respond accordingly. I deserve better, and I will fight until this is made right.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the validity of a collection account currently being reported by your agency, Franklin Ser ( 3 ) accounts, on my credit report. Upon reviewing my credit report in preparation for purchasing a home, I was surprised to find this collection account. In XX/XX/XXXX, the three major credit reporting agencies enacted new policies regarding medical debt reporting. Under these changes, no medical collection under {$500.00} may be reported, and for debts exceeding this threshold, a minimum of one year must pass from the time of delinquency before they are eligible to appear on a consumer credit report. Furthermore, as of XX/XX/XXXX, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau finalized changes to Regulation V. These updates explicitly prohibit consumer reporting agencies from including medical debt information on credit reports or factoring it into credit scores provided to lenders.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.
