Product: Debt collection — Mortgage debt
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I opened a request for mortgage forbearance in XX/XX/2020. I submitted multiple forms and documentation that they requested to substantiate my hardship due to COVID-19. I had to submit these forms multiple times. No one responds by email and when someone contacts me by phone, I'm told I have submitted everything needed ; however, I received a collection letter in XXXX and a collection phone call in XXXX. 

My mortgage is backed by XXXX My understanding is that due to CARES I only need to state I have a hardship for my mortgage loan to be placed into forbearance. The requirement for documents has been a burden and the attempts to collect when the servicer knows I am in the process of requesting forbearance have a hardship has been confusing and stressful.

Open prepay Discover card It account to use online shopping. Received card and used the card online shopping. Received an email on phone from Discover Fraud Prevention Inquiry XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2020 please call 24hrs. Grab the laptop ( in case of bad email spammer ) and sign in acct. Account was not available and said " Call this number ''. Called the number and ask what was wrong. They did not have access to that acct and could not tell me what was wrong. Now I am concern and mad. I have no idea what was going on with acct and neither did they. I told them to close it and she said she could not do it. Hung up and called again and after being put on hold on and off the acct was closed. Then I was told I would have access to the acct since it was closed. My credit score would be lowered due to closing my acct because I received a fraud alert with 24 hour service ( email archived ) because someone pushed a button and went home. My account had no unauthorized charges and as far maybe an identity problem I have a bank acct, no debts and my house in my name paid for. Discover could have freeze the acct. and let me know to call in the morning and so many other professional options questioning the acct.

Company: MOHELA
State: IA

Complaint narrative:
Checked credit report after being diagnosed as XXXX and forced to retire. Saw on XXXX, that Mohela was reporting my student loans as adverse and unpaid. When I became XXXX in XX/XX/2018, I contacted Mohela for a forebearance extension, because of my XXXX. They advised that I contact XXXX to have my loan forgiven due to my XXXX, and they told me XXXX would take over the loan. Contacted XXXX at XXXX. Was advised that I no longer had to make payments on the loan, they would notify Mohela, and XXXX now had the loan. I would now enter into a 3-year probationary period with XXXX, and after 3 years, my loan would be forgiven. But Mohela is reporting my loan with XXXX  as adverse and closed for non-payment. I filed a dispute with XXXX  online, which they say never happened, I have a XXXX File #, and filed with them over the phone as well as mailed documents. They sent a letter back advising that they investigated it for 1 day, and changed the status as transferred to another office. I have documents to include, please. Why take this action against me because of my XXXX. I never asked to be XXXX. I just want to get back to work, which will never happen, and now Mohela and XXXX  work together to trash my credit.

Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: CT

Complaint narrative:
I have been engaged in an issue with Portfolio Recovery that despite their claims to the contrary on the credit bureau reports, by listing the items as resolved, has come nowhere near being resolved. This is has been stretching on for over a year and still remains a problem. And now there has been a new complication to the issue. 
Portfolio, as a result of a prior dispute, sent notice that they were ceasing collection activity on XX/XX/XXXX. However they did not completely follow the directive of their own notice and continued furnishing derogatory information to all three of my credit reports, despite the accounts they claim to be the original claimants of these alleged accounts not even appearing anywhere on my credit files with any of the bureaus. Reporting on credit is a form of debt collection and, as such, Portfolio continues to violate their own agreement with the CFPB to cease collection activity. 
The current and most recent issue that has arisen with this company involves the fact that they are pulling my credit from Transunion, most recently on XX/XX/XXXX. I only discovered this fact as a result of just having signed up for annualcreditreport and learning of this or I would have filed this sooner. Given that Portfolio have ceased collection activity on these alleged accounts, they should not have any permissible purpose in accessing my files and viewing my personal information. If they have some some strategy in mind they should explain it in their response otherwise they engaging in deceptive and unfair practices as under the FDCPA and UDAAP. Furthermore, they should cease pulling my file in the absence of said permissible purpose and they should also delete my file from their records and cease reporting activity as they should have a year ago.

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
When I first discovered the fraudulent charges I immediately contact XXXX XXXX  as required. I completed the required dispute form and emailed it on XX/XX/XXXX ; 1 day after I received the form. When I called to report the fraud I was told by your agent that the money would be returned and not to worry. I was also told that the two XXXX and XXXX charges were pending and would be reversed. I have yet to have this money credited and now that also is in dispute. Please listen to the call if you need to verify this information was told to me. As I told the representative I do not drink coffee or tea and very rarely visit XXXX ( see account history ) I also do not have a XXXX account that can also be verified via my account history as well. The XXXX account is clearly not in my name/address and I am requesting the name and account number and all information you have on this account. I am not familiar with your internal policies or procedures but this issue has caused a tremendous financial burden on my family. I relied on your representatives to provide true complete and accurate information. Why couldnt this charge be reversed in a timely fashion as I was told? 
The other charges should have a video proof that I did not make the withdrawals and/or additional purchases. I am not familiar with most of these places but I do not use the ATM when there is a fess to get This information was requested on XX/XX/XXXX and to date have not been received. 
I called on XX/XX/XXXX and talked to another representative who told me to follow the instructions in the letter to have the disputes reevaluated. However, the letter does not state this is the procedure? How can we as consumers navigate the system when your representatives are giving different instructions than your written correspondences? 
Also, the Federal Trade Commission states that under the federal Electronic Fund Transfer Act that I would not be liable if I notified you within two business days after you realize the card is missing. I did notified you in less than 2 days.
