Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Investigation took more than 30 days
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Numerous times i have disputed with the credit bureaus about these student loan accounts. They have failed everytime to provide me with proof of verification. They have not provided me with an answer well over the 30 days. US dept of education was reported to my credit report 3 times. Each 3 have different balance amounts. All 3 accounts say they were open XX/XX/2011. These accounts has been on my report for 10 years and 7 months. Everything about this situation is not right. These accounts has been on my credit report for over 10 years. This is a automatic removal. All 3 accounts shows 3 different balance amounts. This is a automatic removal because this is inaccurate reporting, and because the same account has been reported 3 times. this goes against the fair credit reporting act 100 %. And the credit bureaus knows this. And still refuses to removal, or they are simply ignoring this matter.

Company: CORELOGIC INC
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
When I terminated my service with XXXX XXXX  years ago I was very specific as to the " payed in full amount ''. Dealing with this company is a nightmare but they were the only ones with a XXXX XXXX I wanted. 
I was given the amount from their customer service department and I returned everything as requested following the steps perfectly. Months later I received a collections notice, naturally demanding payment for a debt not owed.The amount is {$270.00} from Credco ( XXXX XXXX ). I contacted them several times which is a time consuming nightmare and was told it was a mistake on their end but the notices kept coming and my frustrations grew. The fifth time I contacted them I didn't go through to customer service, strait to the collections department where I was told they didn't care or wanted to hear anything from me and to pay up or it would remain on my credit report until I did. This is illegal, unethical, and extortion. They wouldn't ever tell me what was owed, just pay the amount. 
If you send anything back to XXXX XXXX  now XXXX reads you a disclaimer and provides you a secondary tracking number because they've pull this XXXX with SO many people. 
Please get this removed, I'd pay it if it was owed but I won't be bullied into paying it!

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/2021, Mr. Cooper purchased our home loan and we were notified of the transfer. We do NOT have an escrow account with Mr. Cooper, nor did we with the mortgage company prior to Mr. Cooper. In XX/XX/2021, I received our monthly mortgage statement that suddenly showed a negative balance of {$700.00} in an escrow account. Again, we do not have an escrow account. Upon calling the company, we were told that Mr. Cooper paid our homeowner 's insurance, from an escrow account ( that we never opened ). We never authorized anyone to open an escrow account. I inquired as to why a payment was made on our behalf from an escrow account that we never authorized to be opened, but the only response was that the company would do an escrow analysis on our account. We never received any explanation. The only option was to send Mr. Cooper a check for {$700.00} to essentially pay them back for paying our homeowner 's insurance, or they would add the amount onto our principal payments. I contacted our insurance company, XXXX XXXX, who said they never requested payment by Mr. Cooper. At the time of my inquiry in XXXX, there were no posted statements in our account under the escrow section of their website. 

Today, I checked my account at Mr. Cooper 's website and it shows that the {$700.00} I sent them was applied ( incorrectly ) to my principal loan amount instead of to this mysterious escrow account which had a negative balance. Again, I spoke today with representatives at the company ( one in mortgage, one in escrow, and one in insurance ) who assured me they moved the payment over to the escrow account. The representative in the insurance department named XXXX, told me my account showed that we had an escrow account that was reviewed and approved by a manager and made a payment from that account in XX/XX/2021. I asked to be escalated to an escrow supervisor and was sent back to the main menu and never could connect to a live person. In my frustration and concern that this will happen again, I decided to file this complaint. 

In addition, I have concern that Mr. Cooper backdated escrow statements and posted them to my account falsely. In XX/XX/2021, when we first received a statement showing a negative escrow balance, there were no additional statements showing explanation. Today, there are now 4 statements that are backdated from XX/XX/2021 through to XX/XX/2021. Again, these documents were not present in XXXX. Each statement shows a different escrow balance. 

I am concerned that Mr. Cooper will again make a payment to our insurance company from an escrow account that we NEVER OPENED. I am also concerned that they are backdating statements that never existed and uploading them to our account.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers — Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card
Company: CITIBANK, N.A.
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
Based on a promotional offer 'Citi-flex-plan XXXX, I set up a low-interest payment plan on a charge I made on my credit card. I have made those payments on time monthly and understand that if I pay off this balance earlier I will still be responsible for the 6.99 % interest charge for the entire period even though the balance is XXXX. 

A few months later, I received a 0 % offer from Citibank for 4 months. I decided to take advantage of this as well. However, now the balance is due on XX/XX/21 to avoid retroactive interest. I knew this was the due date when I took the offer but also intended to pay it off in full to avoid the interest. 

So on XXXX, after I satisfied my Citi-Flex-Plan payment, I made an extra payment of {$5300.00} only to discover that Citibank has posted it against the flex plan first and not against the balance of XXXX due on XX/XX/21. When I called them to ask them about this, they said that the payment went towards my Citi-Flex-Plan despite my not wanting it to. When I asked why they said because it has a higher interest rate. But that does not make sense because if I pay it off earlier or not I still pay 100 % of the interest. 

I asked them to reapply it to the other balance and they refused and told me I had to pay off my balance in full to avoid paying interest on the XXXX due on XXXX. This is totally wrong and designed to ensure I pay interest on the entire balance of XXXX. I can't avoid interest on the Citi-Flex plan regardless of if it's paid off early or not and they are now requiring payment in full ALL AT ONCE to not incur interest on the interest-free portion. 

This was never disclosed to me at the time I took the loan and feels like its a trick or evasive tactic to ensure they get more interest from an offer they made that was interest-free if paid by XX/XX/21. 

Furthermore, my bill isn't due until the XXXX of the month but I now must pay off my entire balance of XXXX in full- which includes the Citi-Flex-Plan to not incur interest on the XXXX. 

I am so tired of these large credit card companies playing tricks like this. I should be able to make additional payments and have it post where I want as long as I am current. Now I have to pay them even more to avoid interest which was never disclosed to me. SO WRONG. Shame on you Citibank.
