Complaint narrative:
XXXX a charge was made on my carnival Barclay card from XXXX XXXX for {$1100.00}. This was for XXXX XXXX luggage. I received a box and didnt open the box because from what I was supposed to get was luggage double the size of the box. I emailed the company XXXX asking for an address to return the package. Im the email I got it was missing a zip code. I emailed for months trying to get this information and no one would reply to I just returned the package to shipper then notified the guy. I then got a response but it was too late. I called XXXX to find out if they still had the package so I could change the address since the return to shipper address was different but XXXX said since I refused the package I could no longer receive the package back or make any changes since I was not the shipper. I emailed XXXX letting him know & I forwarded the email I received from XXXX. He still said I needed to retrieve the package even after the email said since I refused the package the shipper would have to notify XXXX. I then disputed the charge with Barclay which was my credit card company. I said I am not paying for something I didnt receive. Barclay said they would investigate. I then got a letter XXXX stating I am responsible to pay the charge since the return happened outside of the return date. Which was not my fault that the shipper didnt get back in touch with me with his zip code. I then stopped paying my credit card. XXXX they tried getting in touch with me through email to make a payment plan. I replied as long as they will removed that charge I will pay & I want in writing that they will remove that charge & remove I was delinquent in my payments. They said they couldnt do that so I said Im not paying since either way it will affect my credit. Now I am trying to get a government job and they ran my financial background and I didnt get the job because of this. I tried working with Barclay but they didnt want to do anything for me. How can I pay them if I cant work.

Consumer complaint received 2023-08-05 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — VA mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — 
Company: Royal Pacific Funding Corporation
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I suffered a hardship in which my VA benefits were reduced in error. This error led to my income dropping significantly benefits. This was due to appointments needing to be rescheduled due to the Covid-19 emergency in which. I also lost my brother and niece due to XXXX. Royal Pacific has forced me to go back and forth over the Loss Mitigation Application. Each time I corrected the information in the application to their specific request, they would state that there were more issues with the data. I have reviewed the application with Royal Pacific Fundings representatives, and each time I was informed the application and the corrections were complete. Each time I revisited the application, I went from top to bottom to ensure the application was completed and to the representative 's satisfaction. The errors were due to their representative informing me to change information. Each time I have asked if the application was correct and completed, the application would later be rejected, stating the information is incorrect or more documentation is now needed. These delays by their Loss Mitigation Department extended the process past the 30-day mark, and I was notified that it was now my fault and my home was placed into foreclosure. The delays are still coming, and I fear losing my house due to these tactics of delaying the application. In addition to this, my home loan was removed from my credit report, which made it impossible for me to refinance the home, and this has not been explained to me.
