A 20 year loan at .0875 simple interest, in XX/XX/XXXX and ongoing, we have made {$17000.00} in principal only payments, as allowed by our original contract ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and interest has been taken out of those payments.

We have been trying to pay this off since XX/XX/XXXX in person at PNC Bank XXXX Fl. and 26 phone calls, many not answered or returned, since then.

Complaint narrative:
I disputed a dismissed Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy ref # XXXX with XXXX and Experian credit reporting and they say they have verified and it remains on my credit report and I know they have not verified the dismissed bankruptcy nor will they provided me with the verification of where and how the information was verified and I would like for it to be removed off my credit reports. According to the the Fair credit Reporting Act mentions nothing in Section 1681c relating to bankruptcy about dismissals or filings. The law clearly states from " date of adjudication '' or date of " order of relief '' .Any case, civil or otherwise, which is dismissed no longer exists in the eye of the law and a case filed may never have actually been adjudicated. Therefore, they have no right to maintain information which the government has deemed nonexistent. In Section 1681 ( a ) ( 5 ) of the FCRA, they must delete this information from my credit report

The company told me it was for an old auto loan that I had back in XX/XX/2006. They told me they would not come out and " detain '' me if I gave them payment over the phone right then or if I set up some sort of payoff with them. They told me I would be served at my job and that I was going to get fired because I was served papers at my job. Unfortunately, I did not get the name of the company and they would not give it to me. They just said that they were a debt collection company hired by a company that was suing me.

Company: Utah System of Higher Education
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I received XXXX loans, XXXX unsubsidized and XXXX subsidized, through XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I processed a payment for the full amount of my unsubsidized student loan through XXXX, with specific instructions to apply it to my unsubsidized loan. When I checked on my loan on XX/XX/XXXX I noticed that the payment had not been applied, and called customer service. After a lengthy conversation with their representative, the payment was accepted and showed as such through the XXXX payment system. Before completing the call I confirmed with the representative that any extra interest accrued since the XXXX would be written off and the money would be applied to my unsubsidized loan. On XX/XX/XXXX, after receiving another loan disbursement, I checked my account and found that, although the payment had been accepted on the XXXX, it had not been applied until XX/XX/XXXX, almost a full month after I initiated the payment. Additionally, the money had been divided between my unsubsidized and subsidized loans, against my express instructions and despite the assurance I had received from their representative. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent an email to Cornerstone detailing these issues and received an email saying I would hear back within two business days. After two full business days I have still not received a response.

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Complaint narrative:
I did not receive the {$400.00} business account opening bonus at 5/3 bank, even though the terms were met. The terms of the bonus promotion were to deposit at least {$5000.00} and maintain an average balance of {$5000.00} for 60 days, while performing 5 debit card transactions - which was successfully accomplished. 

To provide some background : The account was opened via phone and the promotion information was relayed to me by the baker on account opening, who suggested I deposit {$5000.00} to ensure the {$5000.00} average is met. Once the welcome packet ( containing my account information ) was received - the {$5000.00} was deposited at my local branch. In the 60 days since deposit - the XXXX average balance was maintained, in addition to performing 5 debit transactions. The proof is readily available by looking at the account statements.

Company: CARRINGTON MORTGAGE SERVICES, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
My mortgage with XXXX XXXX XXXX was sold to Carrington Mortgage Services in XXXX 2016. Beginning with my XXXX 2016 mortgage payment, I started making my payments directly to Carrington and it has been a non-stop litany of problems since then. I have yet to receive a payment coupon book. I have now made 3 timely monthly payments, per the terms of my mortgage, yet none are posted correctly without a lot of intervention on my part. I receive harassing calls at work at least once a week saying my account is delinquent despite the money arriving there on time or ahead of schedule. I 've also received at least one delinquency letter. I have yet to receive a XXXX form for 2016 for my taxes. Their website lists one monthly amount due yet their customer service reps indicate another amount is due ( the difference lying in the escrow payment ... not late fees, principal or interest ). I feel this is a pattern of behavior designed at best to generate additional revenues in fees, and at worst, to create an event of default allowing them to take my home despite my making all of my payments on time. My only proof of payment is my bank statements and receipts generating by their website when I make the payments, but I am afraid this will be insufficient in the event that I need to rely on them. At this point I am debating refi-ing my house in the hopes of never having to deal with Carrington again, although they seem to play games during the refi process as well. I am a highly educated, gainfully employed XXXX. I hold a XXXX and know many attorneys through my job and in my personal life ... I do n't know at this point my best option is to send an attorney letter to them or what my best course of action is as I feel powerless over what Carrington chooses to do with my payments and what they choose not to do. The BBB website has at least XXXX pages of complaints very similar to mine ... most of them stemming from mortgage transfers by XXXX and XXXX ... and the company has a XXXX disapproval rating. There are many, many complaints against them on other legitimate, reputable sites as well. I got your web address from the FTC in hopes that you can intervene in some fashion. Their business practices are most definitely predatory and likely intentionally unethical.

Company: Ditech Financial LLC
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am the attorney for XXXX and XXXX. 
Ditech apparently is the servicer and/or mortgage owner of the mortgage against their house at XXXX, IL, XXXX. There was previously a foreclosure against my clients, Case No. XXXX in XXXX County, Illinois that was dismissed in XX/XX/XXXX. My clients filed a personal Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy, Case No. XXXX which was discharged in XX/XX/XXXX. In late XX/XX/XXXX, the mortgage lender, Ditech 's predecessor, entered into a Temporary Loan Modification pursuant to HAMP rules because their mortgage was backed by XXXX. To make a long story short, on XX/XX/XXXX, Ditech assumed responsibility for the mortgage loan, and sent my clients an offer loan modification by paying {$1300.00} a month at 2 percent interest, which they accepted by signing and notarizing the agreement with the required payment on the due date. Ditech and or any other lenders in interest gave up their right to seek foreclosure by accepting the payments and agreeing to dismiss the foreclosure lawsuit, XXXX. My clients gave up their right to pay nothing, as the debt had been discharged in a Chapter XXXX bankruptcy. There was a legally binding, contractual loan modification entered into between my clients and Ditech as of XX/XX/XXXX. Every month since XX/XX/XXXX ( and during the trial period from approximately XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX ), my clients paid the required amount under the contract by Ditech 's own records. Since XX/XX/XXXX, Ditech has sent my clients numerous letters saying that their loan is in default, and demand payments of large sums, demanding my clients sign a new loan modification with twice the interest, and/or threatening to foreclose and take their home away. But our screenshots of Ditech 's own records demonstrate they are not in default, and Ditech is in breach of the agreement.
