Product: Debt collection — Private student loan debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: FlexPath Capital, Inc
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Please refer to my prior complaint : XXXX My loan was being serviced by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX XXXX at one point. Initially, I complained and they claimed they could " neither confirm nor deny '' that I had any loans with them. Finally, after several phone calls they were able to give me a phone number to the new student loan servicer which is Flexpath Capital, LLC.

I was able to contact someone there and they said that they were now servicing the loan and that it would take time for them to input my data into their system. I provided them with my updated information and they said that for now, I should pay my student loans by telephone. I have been making monthly payments over the phone in the amount of {$700.00} since XX/XX/2021. I have not received a statement nor is it clear if they even have information on the original loan. At this point, I'm not even sure if the loan is valid and I'm simply paying because they simply think I'll continue to pay without question. We've asked for login information and gotten nothing. Now, six month later I'm still paying telephonically and there's no way for me to track who actually has my loan.

Company: PENNYMAC LOAN SERVICES, LLC.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I notified PennyMac Loan Services of a billing error pursuant to federal law 12 CFR 1026.13 ( a ) ( 4 ) and 12 CFR 1026.13 ( a ) ( 5 ) on all past, present and future billing statements and requested documentary evidence pursuant to 12 CFR 1026.13 ( a ) ( 6 ). The letter in response to my billing error dated XX/XX/2022 did not meet the requirement for a sufficient response by federal law. My request for documentary evidence was accompanied by an allegation of an error under 1026.13 ( a ) and a request for additional clarification under 1026.13 ( a ) ( 6 ), which should have triggered the error resolution procedure, instead I am being ignored and PennyMac is willfully neglecting to do their job. PennyMac did not address the billing error in their correspondence to me nor did they conduct a reasonable investigation to resolve the problem. PennyMac failed to deliver a written explanation setting forth the reason why they believe the billing error did not occur as asserted and failed to comply with the error resolution procedures set forth in 1026.13 ( f ).

Company: LoanCare, LLC
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX, a corporate rep for LoanCare lied about the website not malfunctioning in XXXX of 2021 to justify keeping my {$30.00} ( regarding complaint ID # XXXX ). When I paid the {$1.00}, XXXX, the LoanCare rep who took the payment explained to me that he started working about the time when a lot of customers were calling because they were charged a {$30.00} NSF because the website clipped their checking account information and LoanCare waived their charges. He said that because they took the money from the excess in our principal, they would not return my money. The company paid many {$30.00} fees to their bank for the checks that didn't have sufficient information to process. 

I believe that so many customers were using the website at the same time and it was not designed for the overload. Anyone who uses online access for bill pay knows that a website will not allow anyone to submit a payment with missing numbers. I retyped everything about 8 times or more because the site kept freezing or providing error messages for no reason and freezing again during the correction. 

I told many representatives about the issue, asked for a supervisor, but no one cared in 2021, except one person who did let me know that 2 numbers were missing at the end of the account number. I asked if that sounded right to him because the site should not have submitted my information incorrectly, I would have seen and error message. The website literally submitted my information so quickly after I typed in the account number until it seemed as if something was wrong. 

If LoanCare is covering up the fact that many customers experienced my issue at that time to justify taking my money for their malfunctioning website, they are dishonest, ethical, and untrustworthy. Two employees told me the truth about what happened and the corporate head, XXXX XXXX wrote a flat lie in her letter. 

I am attaching a copy of XXXX 's letter, my credit report from about one week ago, and redacted copies of bank statements for XXXX and XXXX, 2021 balances, revealing the mortgage payments for those two months. The checking account, attached, is the account number that I typed into the LoanCare website. 

We are not hurting financially, at all. We are just discussed with corporations run by people who have no credibility. We decided, after this incident, to refinance with a highly reputable company. We are refinancing with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for a breath of fresh air.

Having this inaccuracy on my file is getting in the way of my life, and so I am writing to you today in hopes that you will help me move forward with all of this.

Complaint narrative:
I recently pulled a copy of my credit report that that your company publishes, and after reviewing it continue to find a number of items that are reported as inaccurate. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. 1681g, I have the right to demand that Your company discloses to me all of the documents that you have recorded and retained in your file at the time of this request concerning the accounts that you are reporting in my credit report. Please do not respond to this complaint via mail, or email. Please upload all documentation to the CFPB portal. Your company routinely provides a status of verified for disputed accounts without providing any proof of verification. I have been requesting proof of the below accounts for over 2 years. Upon disputing the below accounts, information on the account is either changed by the furnisher without providing any documented proof, or your company simply responds with the account being verified. 1 specific example of such activity is XXXX XXXX XXXX I submitted a complaint to Experian, and was told by Experian the dispute was frivolous and would not be investigated, as the XXXX XXXX XXXX had verified the account. I only way that I was able to obtain a fair investigation of the account, was by submitting a complaint to the States Attorney Generals office : Which resulted in the removal of the account from my Experian credit report.

Under the FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681i, all unverified accounts must be promptly deleted. Therefore, if you are unable to provide me with a copy of the verifiable proof that you have on file for each of the accounts listed below within 10 days of receipt of this complaint then you must remove these accounts from my credit report. I have reached out the listed companies and was advised they were not able to provide any contractual information, endorsements, or payment history. However, your company is advertising such information on my report. This behavior is a violation of my federal rights. This will be my last attempt to amicably resolve these issues. Please provide verifying documents of endorsement and contractual obligation, and payment history for the below accounts.

XXXX replied, " You can call serving ''. To which I responded, " I did. You work there, submit the request! ". Then she said, " I am not going to request it for you. ". Also, I asked to be told what number payment I was on and XXXX told me XXXX. This loan originated in XX/XX/XXXX, it has to be more than XXXX. XXXX also lied to me. She said that I had to show proof of my hazard insurance. That the Note said I had to but yet, she told me that Shellpoint didn't have my Note. I asked to speak to a supervisor and XXXX put XXXX XXXX on the line. He was not a supervisor. I asked him to allow me to speak to a supervisor and after telling me three times that he was still waiting for a Supervisor and then sent my call to an out going message that said Shellpoint was closed.

Complaint narrative:
My XXXX year old son took my credit card and made a purchase on XXXX of XXXX. I was not aware of this purchase, nor did I authorize his use of my card. When I called Wells Fargo to dispute the transaction, they said that they do not dispute charges from family members. This is completely opposite the current legislation and I see no verbiage that includes an exception for family members. My son is XXXX, ( actually he passed away now unfortunately so he is dead ), or was XXXX at the time, a full adult of his own and he should be held responsible for fraud as if anyone else took my card and used it.
