Complaint narrative:
Comenity-XXXX XXXX has been creating Hidden Fees that are NOT shown on my Credit Card Statements . Simply put, my, Credit Card payments are NOT being reflected on my statements. For example in XX/XX/2021, I applied TWO {$500.00} payments ( One {$500.00} payment ) and on, XX/XX/XXXX a ( Second {$500.00} was made ) however the {$1000.00} was NEVER reflected on my statement. It progressively got worse. There appears to be NO oversight going on with Comenity-XXXX XXXX as they have moved their operations to the XXXX. It is a total of over {$2000.00} that these people have NOT applied to my statement. I want their operation SHUT DOWN for stealing from me and others Consumers. This is a travesty and I am NOT going to stand for it!!! Thank you. XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I originally had an auto loan for a XXXX XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXX which was opened in XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I totalled the XXXX and my insurer ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) received a 10 day payoff from XXXX XXXX due to the vehicle having been declared a total loss. XXXX received a payment via check in the amount of {$11000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. The attached paperwork that I received directly from XXXX XXXX shows the payoff was valid until XX/XX/XXXX. I also received a {$3500.00} payment from XXXX XXXX after they paid the lien holder as this is always the case if money is due after the lien is paid. I started looking at my 3 credit reports, XXXX failed to submit the correct payment of {$11000.00} they received from XXXX XXXX for the 10 day payoff XXXX provided to XXXX XXXX. After checking my reports, in XX/XX/XXXX XXXX reported that I was 30 days past due, XX/XX/XXXX I was 60 days past due, XX/XX/XXXX I was 90 days past due then in XXXX, XXXX charged off {$180.00}. How is it possible after a vehicle is declared a total loss to be XXXX days late after the lien holder has received payment in full and released the lien to the insurance company for that matter. This account still appears as a charge off as of XX/XX/XXXX. I have screenshots from each of the 3 creditors showing the inaccurate information that has been reported since XX/XX/XXXX. I also have my original sales contract, {$8000.00} down payment receipt as well as billing statements, and documents from XXXX XXXX that support this claim.

Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
While reviewing mortgage payment history on XX/XX/XXXX, there were several NSF charges that appeared even though our monthly mortgage checks were being received and processed by Newrez every month. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called Newrez to ask about the charges and the Newrez representative stated the fees were for non-sufficient funds. I explained to the representative that no such condition existed since our monthly mortgage checks were being received and processed by Newrez. The representative then shifted his explanation by stating that the fees were to pay off an " NSF fee balance '' from XX/XX/XXXX. I again explain that no NSF situation occurred and referenced Newrez 's own payment history on their online portal. The representative placed me on an extended hold and then finally stated that the fees would be refunded. 

This is our 4th complaint with Newrez regarding deceptive business practices in managing our mortgage. Newrez provided false information during the initial explanation ( which we have complained on before ) and then they attempted to falsely explain non-existent fees. The fees were eventually credited on XX/XX/XXXX, however, their payment history is so disorganized with multiple duplicate entries, incorrect entries, and mislabeled entries that it makes it difficult to determine how much of a payment was applied to where.

Complaint narrative:
I have previously filed a complaint with XXXX, the creditor that was involved with my identity theft case. They have already sent me an affidavit for identity theft in the mail and I sent that off on XX/XX/2022. I have also sent Equifax and XXXX a copy of my police report my identity theft report and other supporting documents multiple times. They have treated me very rudely. My brother, XXXX XXXX, opened a fraudulent credit card in my name and made himself an authorized user of the card. Based on the police report I have sent them, he has also had a history of stealing checks from my family. I have substantial evidence of my identity theft and still have not had this account removed from my credit report. XXXX and Equifax even put a 7-year fraud alert on my account but then proceeded to say in recent dispute results that the account was accurate when it was not. Out of all the credit bureaus involved, XXXX by far has given me the best customer service. They have cordially and promptly deleted the fraudulent account from my credit file. I am still fighting with you months after I had found out about this fraud. Since XXXX is my XXXX, his SSN is only a few digits off from mine. That is how he was able to do this. I have not received any financial gain from this at all. I am sick of fighting this case. Why would you place a 7-year fraud alert on my account and then decided the fraudulent account in question is accurate? I am beyond speechless. XXXX has already received my affidavit. They should be beginning to perform their investigation.

Company: Mercari, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am a seller on the Mercari phone app and want to reach out with regards to an issue. I received an email with no prior warning or message from Mercari that my account has been closed and funds frozen as I was selling " non-authentic items ''. Firstly, I will agree to the fact that I was unaware that using stock photos was unacceptable. But Mercari should have reached out to me. I have been a well respected seller since 2015 with tons of ( 75+ ) 5 star reviews. I am quite disappointed that my account would just be closed. I have receipts and valid serial numbers for all items I sold. There are a lot of scammers and competitors who try to harm others, and therefore I did not list any of the serial numbers. I received 5 pieces of the same item so thought I could use the picture ( my own picture ) I took multiple times. If this was an issue, Mercari could have reached out and I could have fixed the issue. Rather than taking the decision of just closing my account. I am requesting for the company to re-evaluate my case, release my frozen funds and get back to me and I will be more than happy to provide all valid receipts and valid serial numbers.

This is theft as I have read hundreds of other sellers who experience the same issue. Mercari is stealing innocent seller 's money and profiting off us on the application. 

Date of account closure : Thursday XX/XX/XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
I overpaid my credit card account and am owed a total of {$780.00} and was contacted/advised that my account was closed due to XXXX reporting that I was a high risk account. 

I have earned approximately {$930.00} in rewards for use on the Amazon card through Amazon 's website. I was told these rewards would be forfeited. 

I believe the account was either mistakenly closed or closed due to inaccurate information obtained from XXXX or provided to myself. 

I spoke with XXXX, ID XXXX XXXX, Manager, and he explained to me that the points would be forfeited upon the account closure at their pleasure. I find this to be unacceptable since it was already agreed upon that I would receive points for making purchases on Amazon 's website.
