Product: Checking or savings account — Savings account
Issue: Opening an account — Account opened as a result of fraud
Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
Existing account Fraud. On XXXX/XXXX/17 someone fraudulently accessed our Navy Federal Credit Union ( NFCU ) savings account online under my wife 's name utilizing her our account number, her date of birth and social security number and transferred to another NFCU member in the amount of {$3700.00}. The name of the member money was transferred to is XXXX XXXX XXXX. This person was able to establish account access even under an obvious fraudulent email address of XXXX. We do not know this person or have an affiliation with this person. We reported the incident within 2 hours after the transfer occurred as it was brought to our attention that NFCU had froze our account. We went to the nearest NFCU branch at XXXX XXXX, MD and reported the fraud to them and our complaint was submitted to NFCU Fraud Department under Fraud # XXXX. Since then we have closed our savings and checking accounts and have established new accounts. In addition we received new credit and debit cards. When calling to check on the status of this investigation with NFCU we get the same answer over and over, that is it is pending and will take 10 business days. Well it has been 10 business days and we have not received any updates to this investigation and have not received any of the {$3700.00} dollars that was fraudulently taken from our account. I 've asked to speak with NFCU security and the investigator assigned for updates only to be told that they are not available and that the status is pending. Having been a member with NFCU for over 20 years this kind of treatment and refusal to give me more information regarding this is beyond comprehension and frustration.

Product: Mortgage — Home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC)
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — 
Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I obtained a firsdt mortgage and a 2nd ( HELOC ) on XXXX XXXX XXXX with XXXX XXXX. The loan # with XXXX was XXXX. XXXX was acquired by XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX and they only show that the loan was transferred to XXXX XXXX / GMAC immediately. GMAC servicing is now handled by XXXX XXXX. I contacted the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX at XXXX and left a very long and detailed voicemail. Ocwen is only able to provide payment history from the date the loan was transferred to them which is XXXX. I am trying to refinance as a rate and term refinance. In order to do so the current conventional lending guidelines require that I prove from my current lender that no draws were taken out from the inception of the loan. I need Ocwen to state that. I have n't ever used the HELOC for draws. It was only used to obtain the loan. I am now in jeopardy of losing the ability to refinance to pay of the HELOC while interest rates are low. The value has n't completely come back pre XXXX but I can now afford to pay it off with the current appraised value and some funds from me. There is a balloon payment on the HELOC in 3 years that I want to avoid. I need Ocwen to provide a letter stating that the loan has n't ever had a draw and to also produce the note. I think it is very restrictive that they wo n't /ca n't provide records to allow me to refinance to pay them off. I 'm not asking for any favors. It is unfair but if I were to start missing payments it would be an immediate impact on my credit and my ability to secure low interest rate financing and even employment. I am now 2 weeks into this process and I keep getting the run around. The letter I am going to upoad from Ocwen states there has been no draws since the loan was relocated to them but I need it from XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. If they lost or did n't obtain the records I feel they should provide anyway as I am powerless to move forward without it. I am trying to pay them off with no fault of my own I 'm at an impass.My monthly payment is XXXX a month. I am trying to give them their entire XXXX in a lump sum in less than 2 weeks. One would think they would do what is necessary since its a problem that these lost records have created. I have not missed a payment on this loan in 12 years. Please help resolve this.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — 
Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am an XXXX retired woman who still needs to work to make ends meet. I also receive {$600.00} in SSI. I was diagnosed with XXXX last year and was told I needed to take it easy and only work part time, however, I have not been able to do that. I requested Mortgage assistance w/ Neighborhood Housing of XXXX Florida and was denied, they, in turn, dealt with my mortgage company for over 6 months to get a loan modification to lower my interest rate to 2 % which from I understand am eligible. After months and months of back and forth, OCWEN finally approved and lowered my interest to 2 %, but with a clause indicating to also sign to a balloon which would devastate me and cause me more grieve and hardship. I declined to sign the portion of the balloon but signed and submitted the part of the trial payment for three months which is due in XXXX. I 've owned my home since the early XXXX, and have never been late on a payment. I have been receiving harassing calls in the name of OCWEN from XXXX, and the latest one is a voicemail from an OCWEN representative indicating that my account is seriously past due. OCWEN has been giving me misleading and inaccurate information regarding my mortgage and I am fed up of being taken advantage of. I have dealt with OCWEN in the past for a loan modification through an unscrupulous individual ( who took my money and disappeared ) and according to OCWEN, I did not qualify. Is it legal for OCWEN to grant a loan modification, but at the same time force me to sign a balloon clause that I do n't agree to, or may keep my home when I die? I only have {$60000.00} left on my mortgage and by signing that document, I would have to continue paying that balloon afterXX/XX/XXXXwhen the {$60000.00}. Ocwen has never offered my another solution other than the HARP, I just found out they could have offered another solution, as HARP does not apply to me because I have never missed a payment. Sure I have struggled, just like I am doing now, but a payment has never been late. I also received a communication from OCWEN indicating I no longer qualify for a loan modification because my papers were not submitted in time ( XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ) which is partially true, I only submitted the contract for the trial period signed XXXX XXXX and received by OCWEN XXXX XXXX, this receipt of documents was acknowledged by my " relationship manager '' XXXX XXXX, but he declined my request for the modification because I did not want to sign a document which will jeopardize my finances, my home, and my life. I have made attempts to contact XXXX XXXX to work out a solution, unfortunately, my calls are always outsourced to XXXX.

Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: SECURITY CREDIT SYSTEMS INC
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX XXXX, a collection account began reporting to my various credit reports by Security Credit Systems LLC. The original creditor is listed as XXXX XXXX, the original and current balance are {$2000.00}. I do not know what XXXX XXXX is, nor do I have any idea why they think I owe them over {$2000.00}. I have disputed the account reported by SCS on my credit reports, through the bureaus, and even reached out to SCS themselves to dispute the account. I asked to be furnished with any records that would validate my liability for the debt they are reporting. They have not responded, yet have verified the account as accurate to the credit bureaus. Surely, if it were a legitimate collection theyd have proof to send me. Moreover, the report claims that I made a payment of {$110.00} in XXXX, yet the balance remains the same. In my dispute, I noted that XXXX, XXXX has dozens of complaints against them on BBB, due to their sketchy, if not fraudulent, billing and collecting practices. I also noted that my first notice of the debt/collection was seeing it on my credit report, as neither XXXX nor SCS thought to inform me that they thought I owed them money.

Company: Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I enrolled in SantanderConsumerUSA 's Auto Bill Pay. They did not enroll me because I requested to have them draft more than the amount due monthly. As a result, I was charged a $ XXXX monthly late fee. Additionally, the customer service agent was unable to assist, take a payment by phone without charging a fee, and was slightly more helpful than a robot. Santander has had the wrong date of birth on my account and more than twice has failed to enlist me in the auto bill pay which has forced me to pay late fees and have a 30 day mark at least once on my credit report due to my inability to log in online.
