Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding Zelle 's handling of disputes, particularly in light of the recent CFPB lawsuit highlighting significant issues with the platform. Despite using Zelle numerous times and reporting discrepancies, my financial institution and Zelle failed to investigate my claims adequately. They informed me that recovering lost funds was impossible and that tracking these transactions was unfeasible. The CFPB 's findings indicate that Zelle has not only neglected to protect consumers but has also allowed repeat offenders to exploit the system, leaving users vulnerable to scams. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about consumer safety.

Company: Rozlin Financial Group, Inc.
State: ME

Complaint narrative:
Rec 'd a debt collection notice through the mail from Rozlin Financial Group , Inc. dated XX/XX/year> with amount due of {$290.00} from XXXX. The account number XXXX was refereced. We called to dispute and were given the email address of the account as XXXX and told to contact XXXX. XXXX emails to XXXX disputing that this is not my account and were told to give more information to include credit card number. Told to contact RFGI again and they would answer questions and keep us up to date. The next response from XXXX asked for our credit card info, date these charges occurred, amount of the charge and full name on the credit card. We replied stating that we would not give that information and that we would report it as a fraudulent charge. I then called RFGI and was told to file a fraud report at XXXX. 

It seems they have my name and physical address -but the email is not mine. I have never had an XXXX account, therefore this is not my debt.

Complaint narrative:
LVNV Funding LLC has repeatedly reported an old debt, originally from approximately 2019, as multiple monthly collections on my credit report. This practice misleads credit bureaus and unfairly damages my credit score by creating the false appearance of recent default activity. I believe this debt is either past the statute of limitations or nearing the expiration of legal enforceability and may have been illegally re-aged.

I request the CFPB investigate LVNV Funding LLC for potential violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically regarding illegal re-aging, duplicate reporting, and misleading practices. I have also requested debt validation directly from LVNV Funding LLC.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Paying off the loan
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I attempted to pay off my Mortgage with Mr. Cooper. My remaining prinicpal balance as of this date was roughly {$5700.00}. I requested a payoff quote and was presented with the option of an instant quote for the junk fee of {$25.00}, or a quote within XXXX business days. As I wanted to pay the mortgage off on XXXX, I thought this was ridiculous and attempted to contact customer service via live chat. The chat agent initially told me the only way to obtain the quote was through the junk fee, but then after a few more questions provided me a pay off quote of {$5900.00}. I think navigated to the payments screen and attempted to submit a payment for the payoff amount, and Mr. Cooper prevented me from paying more that {$5500.00} as I had not received a payoff quote and could not submit a payment for more than 95 % of the remaining principal balance. I ended up submitting a payment for {$5500.00} but would have preferred to payoff the whole mortgage. It seems completely ridiculous that Mr. Cooper will not provide my payoff information timely, without charging me a junk fee and will not even allow me to submit a payment to close my mortgage.
