I am submitting this dispute regarding late payment records on my credit report, which I strongly believe are incorrect and potentially linked to a data breach : XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX - {$0.00} These records do not reflect my actual payment history, yet despite my repeated efforts to correct themproviding documentation and following up diligentlyno changes have been made.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — Escrow, taxes, or insurance
Company: PENNYMAC LOAN SERVICES, LLC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My mortgage holder Pennymac is collecting too much escrow for my taxes. I have told them repeatedly and they just give me some platitude and nothing changes. My original payment, without escrow is about XXXX dollars. I have bee paying XXXX dollars for the past year to collect for taxes. My taxes are XXXX per year and the XXXX extra they are collecting is too much. There was also a payment /i made to the county for taxes for the amount of roughly XXXX which the tax assessor gave to the bank since they had already made the payment. I should have gotten that refund. after that they started collecting over XXXX per month to make up some purported shortfall and then the XXXX i currently pay. 
I feel I am being taken advantage of by this bank. I have asked to be called by someone and they refuse. Calling their toll free number is useless. I have not gotten an escrow analysis either and someone with whom to go over.

Im requesting the CFPB to look into this and push for better safeguards to prevent others from facing the same problem. Let me know if you need more details. Thanks.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute the presence of fraudulent information on my credit report, in accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, and to request the immediate blocking and removal of this information. Enclosed with this letter is a copy of my police report, along with the identity theft report filed with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC REPORT NUMBER : XXXXXXXX  ) as supporting evidence of my identity theft claim.

Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, when a consumer submits an identity theft report, credit reporting agencies are required to block any information identified by the consumer as fraudulent within four ( 4 ) business days. 

The following information on my credit report is the result of identity theft and must be blocked and removed immediately : XXXX XXXX  / XXXX Additional Legal Basis : Violation of Section 1681b of the FCRA Additionally, 15 U.S.C. 1681b establishes the permissible purposes under which a credit bureau may provide a credit report to third parties. This law clearly states that a credit bureau may only furnish a consumer report under specific circumstances, one of which includes obtaining the consumers express written consent.

As I never provided written or express consent for the inclusion or reporting of the fraudulent information in question, there is no valid legal basis for this information to remain on my credit file.

Requested Actions Immediate blocking and removal of the fraudulent account listed above.

Written confirmation of the removal of the fraudulent information.

Assurance that the deleted information will not be reinserted into my credit report in the future.

Several times, I have contacted the credit bureau reporting this fraudulent account on my report, yet CREDIT BUREAU has failed to provide a solution to this issue. This situation has significantly affected me, preventing me from acquiring a new home for my children. Furthermore, this account has already been deleted and not verified by other bureaus, which raises concerns as to why it remains on my report.

I have requested contracts from the company in question containing my information, yet after more than 60 days, I have not received any response. Please help me delete this account immediately. I am once again attaching the FTC report in the hope that you will make a fair decision regarding my case.

I appreciate your prompt response and resolution to this matter. I expect a reply within the legally required timeframe.

Product: Checking or savings account — Checking account
Issue: Managing an account — Cashing a check
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, I ordered new checks from XXXX XXXX, but they never arrived. Later, my bank, Bank of America ( BoA ), contacted me to ask if a {$200.00} check for babysitting services was mine. I told them it was not my check. Afterward, I contacted BoA, closed my account, and also canceled and reported the missing checks from my XXXX XXXX order. 

Since my Bank of America account was closed, I assumed the issue was resolved. 

However, in XXXX, I received a letter from the XXXX XXXX regarding another instance of check fraud, this time involving a different company. I went to my local police station and filed a police report. I also contacted the fraud line and was able to get in touch with a detective to investigate the situation. 

This is a case of check theft and fraud, and I want to ensure the right individuals are held accountable.

Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me. I've tried to get clarification from the creditors, but they have blatantly refused to give it to me. I demand that the creditors act immediately and be transparent. The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved.
