Company: Clarity Services
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Greetings, I never heard of Clarity services not until I was trying to get an approval for furniture that I need for my new house. They are reporting inaccurate report about me to the company I was trying to get credit with. I called them to ask why that my bank account that I have since 8 years is not accurate as they said and they told me that at times it is because of military services which do n't make any sense. They need to remove fro they file because I do n't know who they are and they are being paid to report negative items on individual 's credit profile.
<P/>
Clarity services is a ripoff and they are reporting XXXX report so the same report is reported twice on my credit file. Shame on you.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
Nationstar mortgage acquired my loan in XX/XX/XXXX. They refused to honor the modification that I was in, did I was behind, and were foreclosing, giving me no options to save the home, and not accepting payments. I finally just listed the home for sale the middle of XX/XX/XXXX and found a buyer quickly. My principle balance is {$60000.00}. Nationstar came back with a payoff on XX/XX/XXXX of over {$100000.00}. I called on XX/XX/XXXX to find out why and was told This amount includes a modification fee of {$12000.00} and over {$5000.00} of lender paid expenses. Over {$12000.00} of interest and almost {$10000.00} in escrow fees. I requested an itemized list of charges, which will take a week to repair, and asked to speak with a manager about having the modification fees removed since they never have me a mod. The representative said that I was right they saw no modification on my file and that he would send a note but refused to let me speak to a manager about the issue and said that he had no authority to remove it, that would have to be decided by management. I again asked to speak to someone in management, and was told that it was n't possible. I need at least the {$12000.00} removed, and by my calculations I was over charged for escrow by {$4900.00}, and there are probably more fraudulent charges on there as well that I need investigated, or I will make nothing from the sale of my house, and me and my children will be homeless in ten days when the sale closes.

Product: Debt collection — Other debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged
Company: National Credit Systems,Inc.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
While I was a tenant at XXXX XXXX Apartments in XX/XX/XXXX, water came up through the drain of my kitchen sink and caused damage to the unit below me. I was not in my apartment when the incident took place and I had no knowledge of any plumbing issues that could cause water to come up through my drain. The XXXX XXXX feels as though I am liable for these damages. I disagree and have refused to pay despite multiple attempts to collect by XXXX XXXX. Ultimately I got my attorney involved and he reiterated that I would not be paying the alleged debt until a verdict was rending in favor of the XXXX XXXX proving that I owe the amount at issue. At that time XXXX XXXX indicated they were not intending to file a lawsuit. Instead they were going to going to continue to seek payment and ultimately jeopardize my credit. Earlier this year I was contacted by National Credit Systems , Inc. on behalf of the XXXX XXXX. Again, they were seeking to collect the alleged debt that had previously been dispute with the XXXX XXXX. I explained to the National Credit Systems representative that the amount had been disputed and I would not be paying. Last month, XX/XX/XXXX, National Credit Systems , Inc impacted my credit by reporting the alleged debt to the credit bureaus. Shortly thereafter I received a letter threatening me with a lawsuit and explaining my ability to get credit, favorable interest rates, or a home are now in jeopardy because they have reported the alleged debt to the bureaus. On or about XX/XX/XXXX, I reached out to National Credit Systems , Inc to inquiry how the alleged debt had been validated and what gave them the right to impact my impeccable credit score. I  was told the XXXX XXXX had provide a copy of my rental agreement and an invoice for the repair costs and that was all they needed, as I had failed to provide any documentation to the contrary. I explained that I did not need to provide any additional documentation as my stance is supported by the rental agreement that was provided by XXXX XXXX. I asked where in the rental agreement it stated I was liable for unknown maintenance issues, which I was told my rental agreement states the tenant is liable for all water damages. I can assure you that the rental agreement does hold the tenant liable for all water damages. Rather, section XII ( F ) of the agreement indicates that the tenant as the duty to promptly notify the Landlord of the need for repairs. Since I had no knowledge of the maintenance issue, I had not duty to notify them. Nor could I have.

Company: NCC Business Services, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
A company called NCC Business Services is not providing me with validation that I owe them any money. They are reporting that I have an unpaid debt with them of {$3900.00} but I have never done business with them and I have never received any letters or notices from them. Why did they not send me a notice of my right to dispute this debt before they reported it to my credit? The account number on my credit is : " XXXX ''. I only found out there was an account on my credit report when I checked my credit recently and it was pointed out that I had a collection. I 've done some research online and I have only come across negative reviews and complaints by other consumers who have been harassed and scammed by this company. I will not give my money to a company I do not recognize and who will not tell me why they want me to pay them.

I keep receiving multiple calls a day from the same company, they continue to call and call and call and most times they just hang the phone up. The last person I spoke to said that he did n't care they could call as many times a day as they want to. It has gotten to the point in which it seems they are doing this purposively in an attempt to harass me into paying them to stop calling.

Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
I have had this issue with Nationstar mortgage for a while now. They held funds in suspense not completing full payments during a time of XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. 3 months later, Nationstar finally admitted fault for their inability to apply funds and corrected the payment history. I requested a verification of mortgage, bu the VOM was not corrected. Lacking a correction for the VOM, it stated that I was 30 days past due for multiple months. I have been trying to refinance for 9 months and this error on Nationstar Mortgage is inhibiting my ability to. When Nationstar went back into the payment log they held up 2 months worth of payments, which put me ahead in my payment schedule. It does not make sense that they still have not repaired my VOM on their clear mistake ... After countless attempts to correct this, Nationstar has drug their feet around on this issue.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I received a notification that a change was made to my Equifax credit report, upon checking I noticed there was a negative debt added on XXXX XXXX, 2017, to my credit report. I requested information from the credit bureau ( Equifax ) and submitted a dispute. I received an email from Equifax two weeks later stating an investigation was completed and they determined the debt belonged to me. I requested information they used to determine their investigation but I was told they would n't provide investigation details. <P/>I contacted the collection agency who submitted the debt to Equifax to request proof that the debt belonged to me. The information I received from the collection agency clearly states a different social security number, address, phone number, marital status, ethnic status, etc. Everything reported ( with the exception of my name ) was completely different. Equifax, the credit bureau did not conduct a thorough investigation and is listed this debt on my report despite that fact that all of the information is inaccurate.

I was not working at the time just attending school. Second month in they started trying to make me pay XXXX a month on that loan.

I then contacted XXXX XXXX and got the same answer. As I was not working at the time I could n't make payments. It went into collection before I even finished school. They started taking my taxes and another company contacted me, I believe Nievient? Not certain of the spelling saying they 'd work with my income at the time stating it 'd not be above 50 a  month based on income. For about 6 months those payments were made on time and for the amount but, on the 6-7 months they jacked up the prices to XXXX a month and threatened to sue me if I did n't pay.
