Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I was given 30 days start paying back a debt I owe XXXX for a student loan. I was given 30 days from Transworld Systems Inc. to start paying before they began garnishing my wages. I contacted them late XX/XX/XXXX or early XX/XX/XXXX, letting them know that I had started a new job and should be able to afford {$50.00} a month to start paying them back. I had been working a commission based job for the last 6 months and it completely destroyed my savings and credit. all my cards are maxed out and my credit dropped 100+ points because of my lack of income. I finally started making consistent money and contacted XXXX XXXX from Transworld Systems Inc. and informed him i was ready to make a payment today, XX/XX/XXXX, and every month following. He was extremely rude and told me it was too late. He said they had started the wage garnishment process. I am still within my 30 day time frame to pay back. He told me that now I have to pay {$700.00} now and {$75.00} a month. I told him I do n't have the money and to please help me. I can afford the {$50.00} a month and will gladly start paying that back. He said no, you have to go to a hearing. I explained I do n't have time I work too much. He said too bad its too late. Please help me with this situation. I feel helpless, I 'm willing to pay them back I just cant afford the huge payment they are requesting.

There were people outside smoking XXXX, and just not a comfortable situation for a single mother of XXXX. I walked right back up to the office, and explained they could cut up the contract because I would not be moving in. Well low and behold this is where we stand now. They never once tried to make contact with me letting me know that they would be charging me for anything, turned around and sold the information to XXXX. I spoke with XXXX sometime last year 2016 and was so frustrated I told them I would just pay something to have them stop harassing me. I spoke with a manager who in turn did stated to me that they would remove it from my credit due to the situation. I took their words for what they were and noticed this year when I sat and pulled my credit that the account is still there. I contacted the company last week and asked to speak with the supervisor who handled my account and find out why it was not deleted, and was told that they will not transfer me and that what the employee was telling me was all I was going to get.

Complaint narrative:
Company placed a collections on all three of my credit reports. I disputed the validity of this debt. I have never been notified of an outstanding debt. I did not and do not acknowledge this debt, they started over the 7 years after my claim was denied on XXXX and updated the other two credit bureaus as if this were a recent account. I have the credit reports from BEFORE I disputed and this was originally reported in 2013. Now I am receiving harrassing phone calls every day. I do not answer or communicate with them.
It says I owe {$1400.00} but the original debt is {$1100.00}? Hows that even legal?

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
1 ) This complaint is regards to the Complainant 's property in the address of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, MA XXXX wherein Bank of America has made the Complainant sign an Adjustable Rate Rider to his original first-lien residential mortgage but did not actually provide the Complainant with the rest of the body of the document. 2 ) This deceptive practice happened in XX/XX/XXXX and the mortgage was serviced by Bank of America until XX/XX/XXXX. 3 ) Complainant has filed at least 2 loan modifications for this subprime ( 12-month MTA ), negative amortization, pay-option mortgage to Bank of America as were mediated from Complainant 's separate complaints submitted around that time through the Massachusetts Attorney General 's Consumer Protection online complaint system but no HAMP modification was awarded. 4 ) Several public documents in XXXX County Land Court Registry of Deeds had since then appeared that attests to the fact that Complainant 's mortgage is fully-paid off because the mortgage was made to be part of XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 5 ) Bank of America. upon acquiring Countrywide Home Loans in XX/XX/XXXX, can not deny that it is the Master Trustee and Depositor of said XXXX from full-acquisition of XXXX, XXXX and it also now serves as the Master Servicer for mortgages within that XXXX. 6 ) It appears from records available in mortgage statements and litigation records that the Complainant 's Mortgage of $ XXXX has been fully-paid off through participation in the XXXX by the time that Bank of America made the Complainant sign just the Adjustable Rate Rider portion of a mortgage instrument it offers. 7 ) Bank of America did not disclose the actual mortgage since XXXX and the Complainant is now showing cause in several other separate legal complaints, including the one attached herewith for the entire Condominium building at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, MA XXXX. ( See MA Division of Bank Complaint to Bank of America -- the Complaint form and its Exhibit 2, and not both Exhibits are provided here due to Credit Bureau records that appear in Exhibit 1. Bank of America will be recipient of the MA Division of Banks Complaint anyway ) 8 ) Bank of America has committed deceptive loan practices, and deceptive foreclosure practice against the defendant and should now fully-admit that it made the Complainant sign a Mortgage of Security Interest and Rent similar to the one attached here, because this is the only possible way that Bank of America can keep the Complainant 's mortgage within the XXXX XXXX XXXX wherein the participation cut-off date wasXX/XX/XXXX and it offered the Complainant an Adjustable Rate Rider to sign in XX/XX/XXXX and just kept referring to it as a " Certain Mortgage Instrument '' in Land Court records.

Complaint narrative:
Ever since I was forced to file Bankruptcy in XXXX 2008 I have made all payments on time as agreed and paid off all Credit Card Debt Monthly Balances in Full. All other installment loans such as Mortgage, Auto and other installment loans have all been paid on time as agreed or paid off sooner. I have only applied for and obtained credit as needed. After following all of the purposed recommendations my credit score still remains well below XXXX. My score seems to bounce back and forth in the low to hi XXXX 's. I would not have had to Bankrupt in the first place had our Government been in control of our Mortgage & Banking Lending Practices. The Housing Market would not have come to a complete CRASH had our Government put into place Strict Regulations to prevent Appraisers from preparing false Housing values, Our Government continues to fail to Regulate the Banking Industries Lending Practices and it appears that we are heading right back into another Recession. As for my own personal Credit score. It appears that all three of the Credit Reporting Agencies are creating a false and very Low Unrealistic Credit Score. This has become very obvious based on my credit history since Bankruptcy. I believe they are doing this so that Lenders will not offer me the best credit available and instead these Bureaus are creating the scenario that forces me to pay higher interest rates and fees. Most importantly XXXX Credit Report is what Credit Check Score is basing my Credit Score from. So I ask you again how can I improve my credit score to over XXXX? It is obvious that I pay all of my payments on time, keep all credit cards balance paid off every month and have done everything suggested by Credit Score as well as XXXX. I am frustrated by the constant interference by the Credit Reporting Agencies and their low intentional Credit Scoring that is designed to force me the Consumer from obtaining the best credit available. A copy of this email has also been sent to the US Treasury and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for their review as well.
Very Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
