Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — Confusing or misleading advertising or marketing
Company: Better Mortgage, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024, I received a loan estimate from Better.com for a mortgage on my property. Before receiving this estimate, I was repeatedly assured by the company 's representative, XXXX, that all costs except for Prepaids ( F ) and Initial Escrow Payment ( G ) would be covered by lender credits. Based on this information, I decided to lock in the mortgage rate with them. 

However, upon reviewing the loan estimate today, I found that additional costs were included that were supposed to be covered by the lender credits, contrary to what was promised. This has caused unexpected financial concerns, as I was explicitly told that these costs would not apply. 

Immediately after reviewing the estimate, I made multiple attempts to contact XXXX via phone and text messages throughout the day to clarify this discrepancy, but I have received no response. I also reached out to Better.com to escalate the issue, but I have not yet received any communication or resolution from the company. 

Due to this misleading information and lack of response, I feel I have been misled about the true costs associated with this mortgage. I have requested that Better.com either adjust the loan terms to reflect the promised lender credits or cancel the loan process altogether with a full refund of my {$550.00} fee. Additionally, I seek compensation for the hard credit inquiry on my account and the time wasted due to this issue. 

As of now, Better.com has not taken any steps to address or resolve my concerns.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue related to modification, forbearance, short sale, deed-in-lieu, bankruptcy, or foreclosure
Company: REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I lost my job in XXXX last year and entered a mortgage forbearance plan with Regions. While unemployed, I worked as a XXXX  through XXXX and privately. In XXXX, I contacted the mortgage company to avoid foreclosure. They advised me to document my chauffeuring income for a potential modification. 

In XXXX, I submitted bank statements and profit-loss reports showing an average monthly income of {$7500.00} gross/ {$6000.00} net from XXXX to XXXX. During this process, I also secured a job at XXXX  XXXX XXXX, earning {$12000.00} gross/ {$9500.00} net monthly. 

Despite informing the company of my improved financial situation, my loan modification was denied. They claimed I might be unwilling to pay a higher interest rate compared to my original 2014 loan. My attempts to negotiate were unsuccessful, and they refused to consider either of my income streams, even though I can now afford the mortgage payments.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Request to Reopen Closed Account Due to Fraud and Identity Theft Dear Sir/Madam, I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to respectfully request the reopening of my account that was recently closed. Unfortunately, the account was closed because Barclay had automatic payments set up from a restricted account. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I did not realize this issue as I was actively dealing with a serious case of fraud and identity theft at the time. 

As a long-standing and loyal customer, I have always made it a priority to manage my accounts responsibly and ensure timely payments. The disruption caused by the fraud and identity theft severely impacted my ability to monitor my finances during this period. As a result, I was unaware that the payments were not being processed correctly. 

I have since taken all necessary steps to resolve the identity theft and secure my financial accounts. I deeply value my relationship with Barclay and am committed to maintaining my good standing moving forward. 

Given these circumstances and my history as a responsible customer, I kindly ask for your understanding and request that my account be reopened. Please let me know if there is any additional information or documentation you require to facilitate this process. 

Thank you for your consideration and prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to a favorable response. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
