Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.

Company: MIDFIRST BANK
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Midland Mortgage is holding my loss draft money to complete my house repair after water damage. I fired a contractor who called the mortgage company stating that I owe him money. This is far from the truth. I have sent all of the documentation to prove that I owe him nothing. He has followed the legal process to file a mechanics lien on my home. He does not have a signed contract by myself and my wife ( which is Texas law on a homesteaded property ). A contractor should not be able to call a mortgage and lie about this! He hasn't even given them a dollar amount that he is requesting and yet the mortgage company is refusing to release my money to the new contractor that finished my home. I need this money so the new contractor can get the money he is owed!! I don't know what else to do?

Complaint narrative:
Southwest Credit Systems LP is the debt collector that took over the account for XXXX. I have attempted to resolve the issues with the previous Collector agency. However, the account has now been switched over to XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX. The account initiated with XXXX XXXX should not have a balance. I requested that services be discontinued after experiences technical difficulties upon visiting the Local Authorized dealer immediately after a resolution was not meet during my visit. However, XXXX XXXX continued to charge the account resulting in a collection account. Extremely unethical procedures. 

I switched over to XXXX XXXX due to convenience and fixed rates. I was able to walk in the authorized store, pick up a XXXX and begin remote work. I am beyond appalled with XXXX XXXX 's resolution. XXXX XXXX did not take accountability for the outdated equipment and lack of customer support. There is no reason why as a new customer I should have to pay for an upgraded XXXX tower only a few months within. This is extremely unacceptable. After my multiple horrible experiences with T Mobile, I can imagine why T Mobile is not BBB accredited. I attempted to address my issues with T Mobile, prior to requesting that services be discontinued in the same manner, as I attempted to resolve this current complaint. My relationship with T Mobile has been destroyed to an unthinkable level, due to the poor technical support, outdated XXXX WiFi system and the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( M.R. ). All these issues were totally out of my control. As I mentioned during my conversation with the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. ( M.R. ), I work remotely and these multiple IT issues with T Mobile WiFi XXXX caused me a great deal of stress and hardships both physically and mentally. I was forced to use accrued leave and suffered no pay due to these many IT issues. 

As a Consumer I have adhered to what was expected of me. I notified XXXX XXXX of my issues and request to discontinue services. I also return XXXX XXXX 's equipment as required. 

My relationship with XXXX XXXX has been destroyed. I am seeking CFPB assistance in removing the collection account from my history and removing all existing accounts, personal information etc., from T Mobile and its subsidiaries.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> an debit of {$1500.00} to XXXX for my XXXX rent payment showed on the app as Completed at XXXX as the funds were available to make this payment ( balance of {$1500.00} ). At XXXX on XX/XX/year>, I entered a toll road in XXXX , TX and the XXXX of Texas attempted a debit of {$20.00} to increase my toll balance, which should have been denied due to lack of funds. But instead, CashApp then declined my earlier completed rent payment of {$1500.00} and incorrectly paid the {$20.00} to the XXXX, which should have been rejected for insufficient funds. 

I have contacted CashApp and told them to correct this error as they can not show a transaction as Completed and then take money away from that completed transaction to pay a new one. They will not fix this error and I am now facing possible late fees and NSF fees from my apartment complex. They also told me they dont have the ability to manually push a payment through ( even though this their error. ) This is not right as the funds were in my account and the transaction should not have been reversed to pay another transaction later in the day that should have been rejected. Thank you for any assistance you can give.
