Complaint narrative:
I am in receipt of a response letter dated XX/XX/2021 from SageStream which did not adequately respond to my complaint. I am not sure why this response took 60 days as it was a canned response and it is clear that NO RESEARCH was done as to the accuracy of my information. Perhaps I was not clear so I am attempting to add clarity to this complaint. 

The original letter I received from XXXX XXXX  outlined the following issues with a Credit Report that they received from SageStream.

1. Date of issuance of applicant 's SSN does not match date of SSN of peers. Please inform me how to correct this information. Is SageStream aware that I was born in the XXXX and at that time you did not apply for your SSN until your parents determined that you needed it for a summer job or other purpose. My brother, who is XXXX months younger has a SSN that is only 2 numbers from my own. SO IF THIS IS AN ITEM THAT WILL IMPACT MY SCORE OR ABILITY TO OBTAIN CREDIT, HOW IS IN CORRECTED? 

2. Applicant associated with multiple phone changes. Again, I would like to be informed where they got this information and how to correct this erroneous information. I have had the same phone numbers ( Home, yes I have a land line, and Cell ) for over 15 years. So they either you have a bad source, are pulling bad information or just DO NOT CARE about the accuracy.

3. Distance between applicant 's address and area code of phone number. Where is this information obtained and how is this determined. Also, how can this erroneous information be corrected. Both my home and cell number start with a ( XXXX ) area code. I live in XXXX Florida just outside XXXX where the area codes are XXXX XXXX XXXX original area code and ( XXXX XXXX newer area code. So I actually have one of the original area codes before they stopped issuing that area code.

4. Total account balances. Again, where is this information obtained and how is this determined. Also, how can this erroneous information be corrected. My credit card usage constantly is low and I pay all non zero interest balances in full every month. I do not have any car loans and my mortgage balance could be paid in full but I chose not to due to having an interest rate under 2.5 % ( I am 6 years into a 10 year loan ). 

I would like the company to tell me the sources of the data that they provided to the credit grantor and how to correct errors in these areas. What proof would be required to support that fact that their data in incorrect.

Company: Home Point Financial Corporation
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My wife and I purchased our first home and closed on XX/XX/2021. The closer, XXXX XXXX, XXXX collected and sent the wrong flood insurance payment to XXXX XXXX corporate. Our local insurance company, quickly rectified the problem by collecting the extra {$600.00}, and re-issuing our Flood insurance declaration to HOMEPOINT FINANCIAL, our mortgage company. Unfortunately, XXXX also has several different insurance declarations for my policy, which is very confusing. 

HOMEPOINT FINANCIAL refuses to acknowledge that we have adequate Flood insurance and is about to make us pay for forced flood insurance, despite many hours of phone calls, emails, and three way communication calls with me, our insurance carrier, and HOMEPOINT FINANCIAL. We have received at least two or three threatening letters per month from HOMEPOINT FINANCIAL, telling us we have insufficient coverage, then sufficient coverage, then insufficient coverage, then sufficient coverage, etc. On my most recent call to HOMEPOINT FINANCIAL last Monday I spoke to XXXX who 3 way called XXXX XXXX, and was emailed the correct updated insurance declaration. XXXX assured me this problem was solved, that she sent and email to the department stating I had adequate flood insurance that that department had received the email and that I was going to receive one final letter stating HOMEPOINT FINANCIAL was cancelling the forced insurance. INSTEAD, I was sent a FINAL NOTICE LETTER, stating I will be charged THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS for FORCED FLOOD INSURANCE that I already have and have always had since we purchased this home. This is an absolute nightmare, I don't know what to do, or who to turn to for help. No matter how many times we contact HOMEPOINT FINANCIAL, or what we send to them, THEY REFUSE TO ACCEPT mine, or XXXX XXXX binding legal flood insurance documents as proof of insurance. HOMEPOINT FINANCIAL seems bent of ILLEGALLY STEALING OUR MONEY. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, SOMEBODY HELP US!! Is there any way to prevent HOMEPOINT FINANCIAL FROM STEALING FROM US???

Complaint narrative:
This company will call me repeatedly several times throughout the week. In addition, when they speak to me and after they verify my information they inform me that I have a debt with their office that my XXXX  sent over to them and I am responsible for it and I need to pay it. I I constantly informed them that there was a pending issue before the collection would be paid And the doctor office in question should have reached out to me so we could have settled the account. The agent and informs me that I am a bad person for not paying my bills and that I should be ashamed of myself for not one to pay the office what i allegedly owe them. The agent then went on and on and said Their legal counsel would sue me to collect is that if I didnt pay right then. I informed the agent that is not a good way to conduct business and they basically told me when they would sue me, they would take my wages from me even though I am disputing this bill with the office. I never gave permission for this third party to see my personal health information or the services/care that may have been provided to me. I was not told my information nor have a signature to validate that request.

Complaint narrative:
I have discovered a debt on my Credit Report, reported by IC Systems Inc. I have disputed it, and it has come back as a valid debt. I have tried to call the company 12 times over he last week to resolve/pay/and get information on this debt, and I can not get a hold of the company. Every number I've tried, an answering service answers and hangs up on me, or they say they are not open, ( I called at XXXX on a Monday, and they are open during that time ). I do not believe this is fair reporting if I can not reach the company to resolve the issue on my credit report. I have exhausted all other options to get a hold of this company. Thank you.
