Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My name is XXXX XXXX. The credit bureau is refusing to remove a past due debt from my credit report that is not mine. This account is under a company called " XXXX XXXX for {$1000.00} with account number # XXXX. This account is not mine and I have already called and spoken to representatives at their company to find out why this is on my credit. It turns out that the personal information on this account does not match mine besides a very similar sounding name. This of course means that the credit bureau is reporting someone else 's account on my credit. The representatives were n't allowed to give out more details since I was not the correct person and I was told I would need to send disputes to the credit bureau to have this account deleted from my credit. I have already sent out multiple disputes against the credit bureau for over a year now and they have only responded back with generic responses asking me to call this creditor back and bring the issue to them. I am being given the runaround when the fault is really with the credit bureau and they are refusing to correct their mistake.

Complaint narrative:
I am in the process of purchasing a second home and the loan from my current home is showing late payments and inaccurate information regarding a bankruptcy that i had in XXXX, it shows Bankruptcy was in XXXX. There has never been late payments for this mortgage and bank of America wants me to fill out reaffirmation paperwork which is not allowed in the state of Arizona. Since this loan was not reaffirmed after the bankruptcy it is not even supposed to show up on my credit reports. XXXX and XXXX do not show this but XXXX is showing this inaccurate information. I have spoke with XXXX and they have filed a dispute for me, but Bank of America keeps wanting me to hire a lawyer to reopen my bankruptcy to fill out reaffirmation paperwork but my lawyer says that is not possible. Bank of America states that I have made all my payments and on time but seen to be dragging their feet in correcting the matter. I have been on a 3 way call with them and XXXX but no resolve to the situation. Time is of the essence since I will lose the house and my earnest money on XXXX XXXX if this is not removed from my credit report with XXXX.

Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I am attempting to request XXXX XXXX for the year XXXX and XXXX. Freedom Mortgage outsourced my loan, unbeknownst to me, and claims they do n't have access to my records. I have called their company multiple times on XXXX & XXXX only to get different answers from them each time I call. They have given me the number tot he company which they claim has my information, a company I never signed paperwork with, yet every time I call that company and enter my personal information I get transferred right back to Freedom Mortgage as they 're my mortgage company! I tried calling the other company without entering my information and I am unable to get through to a persona and at one point stayed on hold for over one hour ( I can provide phone records ). 

I spoke with an escalations person at Freedom, XXXX, and she told me Freedom can not get my XXXX XXXX for me that I have to deal with this outsourcer even though I never agreed to allow my account to be transferred. 

The only time Freedom wants to speak with me is when they 're trying to get me to refinance my house, so they only able to help with sales calls, not service calls. 

Additionally, in XXXX they failed to perform a mortgage/escrow analysis for over one year as a direct result of them oursourcing my account to a third party. They claim it was n't their fault because they were n't handling the loan, but I opened the loan with them! 

It appears Freedom opens accounts with customers then sends their business to subpar vendors and washes their hands of any responsibilities to their customers. Yet they will make frequent sales calls to you.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX, I authorized Navy Federal Credit Union ( XXXX ) to XXXX me a cashier 's check for {$9000.00}, taken from my savings account with them, made out to XXXX XXXX of XXXX, so that I could make a downpayment on a new vehicle. Because of tax issues ( this is a new plug-in hybrid, with expiring federal and dealer cash incentives totaling approximately {$6000.00} ) it was essential that I complete the transaction prior to the end of the calendar year. 
When the money did not arrive this morning ( XXXX XXXX ), I called XXXX to get the tracking number, and I was informed that the check had been mailed by USPS, not XXXX. At first they claimed that I had not requested the check be sent by XXXX, but then they listened to the audiotape of the conversation and discovered it was their fault, not mine. Then they told me that the only choice I had was to accept a cash advance on my credit card, and that they would then XXXX the new check, and then waive the cash advance fees once I returned the check they mailed to me. It is unacceptable that I would be required to take a loan on a credit card to fix XXXX  clerical error. Taking such a cash advance loan could negatively impact my ( perfect ) credit score. It is their error, not mine, so why should I have to incur the risk and trouble? In effect, my funds were made unavailable to me during a time critical need. As a result of XXXX incompetence I was forced to withdraw nearly all the funds available in another bank account in order to complete the auto purchases prior to the end of the calendar year without risking damage to my credit record or the loss of {$9000.00}. As a 40+ year client of XXXX, I am extremely angry at their failure to execute the simplest of transactions and their subsequent failure to take responsibility for same. Their actions reflect negatively on credit unions as a whole.

Complaint narrative:
My husband and I requested a deferment through XXXX XXXX and they told us what we needed to pay and when in order to obtain the deferment on the payment. They sent us an agreement which we signed and mailed back. We have paid exactly what they told us to and when to pay it and now they have reported lates on our credit and stated that they did not receive the signed agreement back within 10 days so the deal is null and void. This is NOT acceptable. We mailed the agreement back and its not my fault if they did n't get it. We paid the terms as agreed as we were instructed. They need to honor the agreement, reverse the additional late fees, etc. and correct the negative reporting to the credit agencies. I could see it if we did NOT pay the agreement as required but we did. This is the holiday season and I am sure the post office is buried and the signed and executed letter is either lost or delayed due to the volume of mail that goes on at this time.

Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: DE

Complaint narrative:
Had a CareCredit account used for eye glasses and dental charges. Through no request from me company sent a CareCredit XXXX. After several notices both print and electronic I did activate the XXXX ... the initial account with the promotional offer was closed and the balance moved to the XXXX. The promotional offer on the balance expires XXXX XXXX. As far as I was concerned, once the balance was moved to the XXXX the promotional offer should have become null and void as the balance was moved before the promotional offered expired. Therefore, I should not be subject to fees that will be incurred because the balance was not paid in full. This is not how the credit card company views it, however, I beg to differ. I view this as criminal intent to squeeze me for the fees not charged during the promotional period and although I requested the balance be charged to the credit card of my choosing, I was inform I could n't do it but that is exactly what the company did. They move the account to a credit card albeit it was their own and still plan to charge me the fees once the promotional period expires.

Complaint narrative:
My most recent Care Credit/ Synchrony credit card statement dated XX/XX/XXXX included an expired Promotional Zero Finance Deferred Interest charge of {$430.00}. 

I had made multiple charges under this plan and always paid on time with more than the minimum required, feeling that satisfied the agreement. 

They took the balance from XX/XX/XXXX of {$1500.00} and added {$430.00} and another {$1.00} for other purchases at the rate of 26.99 % .So instead of owing {$1200.00} I now owe {$1600.00}. 

I contacted Customer Service on XX/XX/XXXX and was told that it was added to my unpaid balance and it 's due.

Company: AES/PHEAA

Complaint narrative:
I transferred my federal loans from XXXX to XXXX XXXX, so that I could be apart of the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program ( PSLF ). Under my older servicer, I made payments that would count for PSLF. XXXX was supposed to look at my account history from my older servicer to current and calculate the number of payments that I had already made that counted toward PSLF. Months after I transfered my loans, XXXX notified me that none of my payments that I had previously made counted, and that I had no payments toward PSLF except for the two I had made to XXXX. I called my old servicer and asked for my loan history and they showed that I had made payments for the past 6 years, and they said that those payments should qualify because I was in the proper payment plan and paid on time. I have tried to work with XXXX and a customer rep said they had actually not looked at all my account and she added a note asking that they finish and that they would be back to me by end of XXXX. It is XXXX and there is no change and Fedloans is not working with me.
