Company: PHH Mortgage Services Corporation
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I attempted to pay-off mortgage after being a few months behind to close loan. On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted PHH Mortgage Services, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. XXXX, NJ XXXX to inform them I was going to pay-off loan and requested a pay-off amount. At this time, PHH did not establish the fact that my home was in foreclosure. I was told that a loan pay-off request was made an that it would be emailed to me. I waited until XX/XX/XXXX to see if the pay-off statement would be received in my email and it had not. I contacted PHH again on XX/XX/XXXX and inquired as to where my pay-off statement was as I had not received it. The individual stated that it was in the system and entered another request for a pay-off statement. I had not received and contacted PHH again on XX/XX/XXXX and they said to wait 5 days. I contacted PHH again on XX/XX/XXXX after not receiving the pay-off statement and they stated it was in the system. Loan Number XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from PHH dated XX/XX/XXXX stating my property was in foreclosure despite my attempts to completely pay-off mortgage loan on XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted PHH, XXXX XXXX - Tel. No. XXXX, XXXX, who is identified in the letter dated XX/XX/XXXX with the statement about being committed to working with me. She said that I would have to contact the PHH Collection firm who was assigned the case - XXXX, XXXX, XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, NJ XXXX, Tel ( XXXX ) XXXX. 

Not much help from XXXX XXXX despite my attempts to pay off mortgage completely. 

I have the impression that the passing of the loan to a collector is only to enrich the Collector and others and take advantage of a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

Please look into this provide some help as this is really uncalled for and disrespectful to a XXXX. 

Thank You,

Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
According to Ocwen rep. XXXX ID # XXXX the application for a loan modification was denied on XX/XX/2018. When asked why the louan was declined she could not provide an explanation. We asked if the loan was in foreclosure and she replied no. However the borrower received a notice of default from the law firm of XXXX XXXX XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX. We believe that Ocwen continues to violate provisions of the CFPB regulations regarding servicing by dual tracking and providing misinformation regarding borrowers status.

Company: Coinbase, Inc.
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
My Coinbase account was Hacked on XX/XX/2018. About {$6000.00} in coins was stolen from my account, {$10000.00} was stolen from my checking account and several thousand dollars of unauthorized charges was made to my credit cards. I have called coinbase several times, emailed them 3 times with no results. I am unable to gain access to my account, their support personnel are not help helpful. It's been 2 months since the hack and I would like the situation straightened out. Assuming my account was the only one hacked, why is it taking so long to fix my account and return my stolen funds and coins. The company, in my opinion, has stolen a great deal of money from me.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I signed up for a {$1.00} trial of CreditCheckTotal. I had used them for a number of months in XXXX. 

I pulled my credit report immediately, successfully, and I then attempted a cancellation. I called, but was told it would be a 3 hour wait. I hung up. 

I called the next day, XXXX XXXX, and was told it'd be a 3 hour wait. I hung up and replied in their welcome email this message : " I requested to end my trial after signing up. Please let me know if it's been done. Thank you. '' No reply came. 

I realized I'd assumed a lot in my last message, so I called again on XXXX XXXX, finding out I'd be on hold again. I replied ( in the same welcome email ) : Please cancel my CCT account. Thank you. I called your 800 number, but was told it'd be a 2 hour hold. 
Please cancel my membership. '' I forgot about it. 

Today, Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX, they charged me {$29.00} since my account was not cancelled. 

This is wrong. They say they won't refund any fees, but also will not respond to requests for cancellation unless one stays on hold for hours to speak to a sales rep. This is highly immoral. It's thievery.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I have a T.J. Max credit card. It was my first credit card and I had no idea they were charging me 28 % interest. So when I hurt my foot and could not work, I fell behind. The interest and late fees are astonomical. I called to ask if they could delay or set up a reasonable plan to help me catch up, but they won't do anything. I closed my account, but still have this huge bill. The interest and late fees are most likely more than any purchases I ever made. I feel they are double charging me interest, and it is so complicated, I can't figure out what is the correct interest. Companies like this should be outlawed to protect people like me who work hard, but do not have a substantial income.

Company: BMW Financial Services NA, LLC
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I paid off the remaining loan amount to the captive finance company of XXXX XXXX, BMW Financial Services doing business as XXXX XXXX XXXX. 
1 ) After 4 years of paying on time they had me wait two weeks to send the title for my check to clear 2 ) When I finally received the title on XX/XX/XXXX, they sent the wrong title 3 ) When talking to them over the phone on XX/XX/XXXX, they insisted on me first returning the wrong title that they sent before they can send me my title. 
4 ) When insisting that they should return my title even before I returned the wrongful one, they refused. They also refused escalating the call any further after talking with a Service Manager called XXXX. No last name. 

We see BMW Financial Services treating its customers as untrustworthy even when the customer has complied in every respect and they have not. 

A company like BMW should hold itself to higher standards, standards that respect and put the customer first as opposed to putting their company fist even when they make mistakes.

Company: Critical Resolution Mediation LLC
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
Company illegally accessed the records of XXXX XXXX and subsequently illegally pursued collection activities against him. Company charged an additional {$24.00} in fees and then debited the bank account of XXXX XXXX for a total of {$300.00}. XXXX XXXX became aware of this fraudulent action on XX/XX/2017 and contacted company. Company insisted they had the right to collection on the account, having never provided the FDCPA requirement of a letter within 5 days of calling the debtor ( nor at any time thereafter ), that XXXX XXXX had agreed to payment in writing and they would debit the account based on that. XXXX XXXX was unaware of his rights or options until the TRUE legal owner of the debt, XXXX   XXXX XXXX reviewed the matter and educated him. DEMAND was made to Critical Resolution Mediation to refund XXXX XXXX in the full amount of {$300.00} so that he could pay the legal owner of the account the lesser amount of {$130.00}. Company failed to respond to all demand letters, therefore this is step one in a series to start the process of GOVERNMENTAL ACTION AGAINST THE COMPANY. 

There are NUMEROUS complaints against this company on file through the XXXX  and other websites. CRITICAL RESOLUTION MEDIATION MUST BE STOPPED!

Company: BBVA FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I started a dispute for a transaction on my account on XX/XX/2018. BBVA Compass says disputes can take up to 10 days to be handled and will notify me if they need anything. 

Today, XX/XX/2018, I created another dispute for another transaction on my account ( from the same company ) and found they denied my previous dispute. I called the number provided asking reasons why it was denied. The gentlemen started reading MY dispute but did not inform me of the reason. I asked again for the reason which he replied he would contact the investigator. After about 15 minutes of this ( asking for reasoning ) he stated there was no evidence to support my dispute. I told him that was correct, there was no evidence why the company would charge me twice in one month for something I don't have. Again, he stated not the evidence for the company but for my side. I informed him that no one ever contacted me for evidence or the contract. This time he gave me an email to send the contract to. I asked for him to open both disputes again and please handle it properly. 

Any other merchant service will dispute directly with the company, BBVA Compass bank does not do this. I don't think they do anything. Their dispute process is completely fraudulent. When I asked for the company 's merchant services so I can dispute directly he refused to give me any information. XXXX won't let consumers directly dispute since everything is handled through the providers ( in this case the bank ). I still don't know the information for the company 's merchant service provider as I could directly dispute with them and they would help I am sure. 

I asked for a new debit card and they refused since they won't consider them fraudulent charges, even though I have never authorized the charges. 

BBVA Compass is not disputing anything, they simply sit on a transaction for as long as possible and then close it with no evidence or support. They won't even file disputes on the consumer 's behalf ( their member ).

Company: TOYOTA MOTOR CREDIT CORPORATION
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
The company is Toyota Financing. They have me reported 30 days late for XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX. On both instances I spoke with a representative and they assured me that I would not be marked late. I have had trouble with them previously when I had my last XXXX when they reported me late in error and then removed the lateness. 

The 2 late payments was removed and then all of a sudden put back on my credit report and I noticed it when I went to apply for a house loan and they stated you have late payments on your credit report. I am very frustrated with this organization and really wish I could turn this car in and not have to deal with them going forward. 

I was also discriminated against on a phone call not to recently ago when contacting Toyota the lady was very rude and talked down to me. 

As a result of these mistakes one of my credit cards went from a credit limit of XXXX to XXXX. I really need to be compensated for this issues and really wish I did not have to deal with them anymore constant mistakes over and over again. I hope this shines a light on them. 

All three credit reporting agencies are reporting the lateness despite my disputes. 

They are also reporting my XXXX XXXX when that car has been sold already. 

Thanks,

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, I was notified by mortgage company quicken loans a.k.a rocket mortgage rep XXXX XXXX that a {$500.00} deposit was required for the cost of an appraisal, which I paid. I, also recieved a message on my dashboard account for rocket mortgage from rep XXXX XXXX the same day referring to the scheduled appraisal date. On XXXX XXXX, I responded to XXXX XXXX asking to postpone the appraisal until after having a home inspection? XXXX XXXX replied, in so many words No. I had to stick to the date which was before the home inspection. The home did not pass inspection by far and seller was not willing to do repairs so I backed out of the contract, only to find out when I spoke with XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX, inquiring about a refund of my {$500.00} deposit that I will not receiving any money back. XXXX XXXX, then suggested I speak with a claims specialist whose name was XXXX. I explained the situation to him only to hear I wouldn't get any money back and coincidentally the cost of the appraisal and credit report was exactly {$500.00}. I feel my request was denied and because of it I'm out {$500.00}. This big company has taken advantage of me, I've expressed many times this is my 1st time going through this process. I did my part in asking for a postponement and because of that I shouldn't be responsible for the fees taken from my account.

RE : Account # XXXX Claim Dear Chase bank, Your bank recently cashed a check from my account ( check # XXXX ) to payee XXXX XXXX. 

The check was mailed but never received by XXXX XXXX yet you cashed the check and removed the funds from my account even though the check was NOT endorsed. 

As a long time customer of Chase bank, Im appalled and XXXX   stricken how a credible bank can commit such an error, and then inform the customer that Im equally to blame because I quote Share the responsibility with the Bank. 

You could have easily returned the funds to my account while you conduct your investigation which Im told can be up to 3 months. But by not doing so, you have eliminated any confidence I have in you as a credible financial institution. 

Be advised that I have filed complaints with several agencies including the CFPB ( Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ). You will undoubtedly be hearing from them in the near future. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
