Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action — Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged
Company: CAVALRY INVESTMENTS, LLC
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Cavalry Port responded that the debt was transferred and or sold to them for collection. Cavalry Port would still need me to validate or verify owing this debt or contract stating I would pay. Neither has happened. This is my final attempt at demanding you remove this from my credit report. If you do not I will be suing you for damages. The lawsuit will include XXXX and XXXX as the president and vice president. I do not owe your company and transfer of this debt does not been I actually owe anything to your entity. I intend on making sure your company follows all laws that govern this dispute and will pursue any remedy available to me. 
XXXX. TRANSFER OF INSTRUMENT ; RIGHTS ACQUIRED BY TRANSFER. 
( a ) An instrument is transferred when it is delivered by a person other than its issue r for the purpose of giving to the person receiving delivery the right to enforce the instrument. 

( b ) Transfer of an instrument, whether or not the transfer is a negotiation, vests in the transferee any right of the transferor to enforce the instrument, including any right as a holder in due course, but the transferee can not acquire rights of a holder in due course by a transfer, directly or indirectly, from a holder in due course if the transferee engaged in fraud or illegality affecting the instrument. 

( c ) Unless otherwise agreed, if an instrument is transferred for value and the transferee does not become a holder because of lack of indorsement by the transferor, the transferee has a specifically enforceable right to the unqualified indorsement of the transferor, but negotiation of the instrument does not occur until the indorsement is made. 

( d ) If a transferor purports to transfer less than the entire instrument, negotiation of the instrument does not occur. The transferee obtains no rights under this Article and has only the rights of a partial assignee.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Escrow, taxes, or insurance
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Bank of America , N.A . ( BOA ), currently services my mortgage loan. Along with paying my principal and interest, I have my property taxes, homeowners ' insurance and private mortgage insurance ( PMI ) escrowed into my monthly mortgage payments. 

On or about XX/XX/XXXX, BOA paid my property taxes on my behalf to my town 's authority for {$6800.00}. However, in XX/XX/XXXX, my town sent me a delinquent tax notice claiming that they never received my XXXX property taxes. I informed BOA regarding this discrepancy and instead of investigating why my town claimed that they never received the tax payment, BOA sent another payment of {$6800.00} plus the penalties for the late payment to cover the XXXX property taxes. 

Upon further investigation, my town misapplied my XX/XX/XXXX tax payment to another property. My town 's taxing authority is claiming that BOA instructed them to apply my tax payment to XXXX XXXX instead of my unit, which is XXXX XXXX. BOA is claiming that they instructed the taxing authority to pay my XXXX XXXXXXXX and that my taxing authority made the error. My taxing authority and mortgage servicer are both pointing the fingers at each other for who caused this error. 

Meanwhile, due to BOA paying my property taxes twice, my escrow has a shortage and BOA did a new escrow analysis and due to the shortage that they caused my improperly paying my property taxes twice, my new mortgage payment will increase by nearly XXXX the original amount. BOA is trying to get a refund from my taxing authority, but my taxing authority is claiming they will not issue a refund because BOA told them to apply my funds to another property. And BOA is refusing to correct the shortage in my escrow account that they caused. 

I have tried calling both BOA and my taxing authority and keep getting the runaround. I am not getting any clear answers on when my escrow account will be refunded. I have been trying to resolve this on my own since XX/XX/XXXX and it is nearly the end of XXXX with no resolution in sight.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Im writing to demand the immediate removal of several fraudulent inquiries that appear on my credit report. These inquiries were made without my knowledge, consent, or authorization they are the result of identity theft, and I should not be held responsible for any part of them.

Let me be absolutely clear : I did not initiate these credit pulls, I did not apply for credit with the companies that made them, and I never gave anyone permission to access my credit file in these instances. These inquiries are unauthorized, and their presence on my report is a direct violation of my rights under 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2.

Under this law, I have the legal right to block and remove any item on my credit report that is the result of identity theft. Im invoking that right now.

I asked under the regulation code 229.10 ( c ) ( 1 ) why isnt some funds available they denied and say it could access the full check on XX/XX/year> which is a week hold. Banks can not be allowed to illegal hold consumers money. I hope you take this seriously. I cant buy food now for my family and I am beyond outraged and angry!

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute fraudulent information that appears on my credit report pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, and to formally request that this information be blocked or removed. I am including a copy of my identity theft report issued by the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) XXXX as supporting evidence for my claim. 
According to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, when a consumer submits an identity theft report, credit reporting agencies are required to block or delete any information identified by the consumer as resulting from identity theft within four ( 4 ) business days.

The following information on my credit report is the result of identity theft and must be blocked : XXXX XXXX XXXX - XX/XX/year> XXXX  - XX/XX/year>XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/year> As outlined in 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I am formally requesting that this fraudulent information be blocked or removed immediately from my credit report. This information should remain blocked for a period of one year, after which I may request an extension. During this time, no fraudulent data should continue to appear in my file.

I have contacted the credit bureau reporting these fraudulent accounts multiple times, and they have failed to provide me with an effective resolution. This situation is severely affecting me and feels like a never-ending cycle. I do not understand how these accounts can still be reported as mine when I have already proven otherwise.

Please help me by removing these accounts immediately. I am including my FTC report again, hoping that you will make a better and fairer decision in my case. Thank you for your attention.
