Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am refiling the same complaint that was closed because the same issues continue to happen. My initial mortgage company was XXXX XXXX. Now they sold the mortgage as of XX/XX/year> to Mr. Cooper. My house suffered wind/hail/tornado damage. My insurance company sent {$210000.00} cheque which is now with the mortgage. Insurance Claim Check center handles their loss department. They have horrible processes, difficult to follow, poor customer service and poor response rate and leaves the home owners to pay the bill and then fight to get reimbursed for repair costs that the insurance company has already paid for. During the middle of repairs now the mortgage got sold as described above and now the same insuranceclaimcenter on behalf of Mr. Cooper is wanting to restart the process. This has left me bankrupt as I emptied my savings to pay for repair while the insurnacecliimcenter aka loss dept of Mr. Cooper hangs on to all the money. I am drawing in debt and will default on my cc payments if Mr. Cooper does not release additional funds. I have submitted all documents, all photos of repairs that are or around 50 % complete and have run out of funds to keep repairing. They don't return phone calls, inspections get done but they don't release funds and it is horrible customer service follow through. Please do something to help customers like us who are in financial ruins. Here is the previous complaint filed by me " XXXX ''. Thank you for your kind attention and help.

Complaint narrative:
Noticed on XXXX XXXX  that an old inquiry ( from XXXX XXXX ) was removed, and then an inquiry from that same bank was newly added. XXXX XXXX has no info other than " XXXX '' displayed, and the fact that it was added to my report within the last 5 days. Tried contacting transunion for contact information for the bank and was denied. Their website does not work and phone wait times are extremely long. Mind you I chatted with transunion maybe XXXX weeks ago where I provided my SSN and DOB through a secure form within the chat and had contact info for a collections account provided immediately. Now suddenly that is impossible and since their website will not work, I HAVE to call to verify my identity and providing contact info through the chat is 100 % impossible and a privacy issue. Finally contacted bank directly by just calling XXXX numbers on the XXXX website for info on why an inquiry was just recently added and they just said I " had no recent applications with them. '' When I stated they needed to investigate why they have just added an inquiry if I have not applied for anything, they stated over and over again that someone MUST have added me as an authorized user despite that being completely impossible. And of course they had no way of looking up this imaginary account that I am an allegedly an authorized user on. Refused to transfer me to a supervisor because I am " not a customer. '' Had to threaten contacting the FTC and ask for the agent 's identifying information before they would even mention being able to file a report.
