Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: AmeriHome Mortgage Company, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Our new home mortgage was acquired by XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. Our escrow account was funded with over $ XXXX at that time for taxes due XX/XX/XXXX. 4 months later on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX sent over $ XXXX in payments from my escrow account t for taxes on homes I do not own. I made XXXX calls and got someone who said they 'd address in XXXX weeks. On XX/XX/XXXX $ XXXX payment was disbursed from my escrow for accounts that are not mine. It 's currently XX/XX/XXXX and my valid tax accounts are unpaid. 

XXXX has XXXX tax accounts associated to my escrow account that are invalid. I fear there are many more payments to be made in the coming days and their customer service has not addressed the issue. 

Once these funds are refunded to me we will refinance through a real bank. Can you help us get our funds back and stop the erroneous disbursements from our escrow account?

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX has been trying to collect money from me that I do not owe. I have been contacted by four collection agencies. Each time I receive a notice about  XXXX in the mail from a collection agency, I reply within 30 days and explain to them why the debt is not valid. XXXX XXXX has reported the account on my Transunion credit report. The amount is {$57.00} On XXXX XXXX, XXXX I sent a dispute letter to Transunion and followed their dispute process. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Transunion sent me the report on the results of their investigation. They say that the information has been verified as accurate. All that Transunion has done is verify the same FALSE information that XXXX XXXX is providing. XXXX XXXX falsely believes that I have an account with them because I purchased a phone at a retail electronics store and the store had a technical problem and could not activate the phone. The store let me return the phone and they refunded all my money. The store said they notified XXXX. This happened XXXX XXXX. Apparently the store either did not notify XXXX or XXXX did not get the information.

Issue: Problem when making payments — Problem during payment process
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
This is a personal Loan through Wells Fargo. Made a payment XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and it appears to have been applied by looking at the statement from XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, but that same statement says that I owe XXXX. The original payment is XXXX, but I always pay a little more. This same statement has another payment of XXXX which I did not make. I started the calling process as stated below : XXXX Spoke with  XXXX and was told that part of the office was closed. 
XXXX I call back and spoke with XXXX who said the money was refunded to my bank. That is not true because I have reviewed all of my statements and called my bank to make sure that that I did not miss seeing the refund. She stated she was going to initiate a form for research. Once completed she would call back and would leave a message if she could not reach me. I have not heard back to date. 
XXXX Spoke with XXXX who said she would look into my account and get back with me- I heard nothing to date. 
XXXX Spoke with XXXX who told me that the payment was not received so it shows XXXX outstanding. She did some checking and mentioned that it was refunded back to my checking account with Wells Fargo. 
That account was closed and has been closed for some time because I never used it. When I get online I can not see the account either. 

Every time when speaking to a representative I state that I made a payment and continue making my payments, but they are not being applied correctly. When I spoke with XXXX, I told her I sent a payment from my bank on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, but she did not see that it had been made. Wells Fargo continues to charge me late fees despite me making the correct payment on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. 

I want your help in correcting this problem.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I have contacted companies on my credit report that you ( XXXX XXXX experian ) has said to say the debt was validated. Well within one day of filling a complaint with XXXX XXXX its ironic they closed the account. Per FCRA you as credit reporting agencies should really investigate and make sure when they send you these automatic validations claiming that they are in deed a consumes debt that in deed they are valid, Like for instance a contract, drivers license and a signature. Its frustrating because me as the consumer has been through XXXX and back with experian just to say, they have said they validated everything when in fact have not. I have sent the same disput letter as I have to XXXX and XXXX when they investigated they removed and corrected debts not owed by me. Experian  you did nothing but send me a credit report and said from findings in previous months its the same meaning you didnt even try the second time to investigate!!!! I wrote a complaint on consumer finance.gov where you stated again that you investigated and these alleged debts were mines. Well here is proof you didnt. Please delete XXXX XXXX from my file as there are many more to come your way experian. Thanks XXXX and XXXX for doing your job and please delete XXXX XXXX from your files as well.

Account information ITEM DESCRIPTION RESULTS XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX # XXXX DISPUTED This agency never contacted me before placing this on my credit report. I found out about this because my credit score shot down 62 points, so I went to check my credit report that 's how I found out. I received no phone calls and no notices what so ever. 

I call this agency and explained to them that this was never my account on XXXX,17. I  also called XXXX, on that same day, I was connected to the financing services department she looked in my account and stated that in my account it says all previous balances paid in full. She then connected me to the credit recovery department and they stated that it was nothing they could do about it, because XXXX, had already sold it to a third party. The Representative then said that they could not send out a notice stating that the account was paid in full, because it was something still on the account. 

She told me that I could call the third-party and asked them to send the file back, so they could investigate why it was sold. She said Because at this time she cant see anything in the file because the third-party has that information. 

I called XXXX XXXX XXXX, back and explain to them what XXXX, representative had said. They told me that they have no more information, other than what XXXX gave them which is : my name address, Social Security number and how much I owed. And then said, what they would do is contact XXXX, and tell them the file in question, has been disputed and that would give XXXX more time to find out what happened, meanwhile after the results from XXXX, from my complaint nothing has changed they claim they had verifiable information I find that strange, being that I have not received any verifiable information as yet.
