Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Atlantic Recovery Solutions LLC
State: KS

Complaint narrative:
I was left a voicemail about a credit card debt and around the same time was called by a process server. I called the number XXXX and they said that I had a debt for XXXX  XXXX which I have never heard of. They had a very outdated email address so I gave an updated email address for them to send information about the debt to. I called XXXX and they were not able to find any information for an account that I had with them. They called from telephone # XXXX and left a voicemail again saying they were Atlantic Recovery Solutions and that the email I had given was invalid, which is not correct. I do not show a XXXX XXXX account on my credit report and until I had received the phone call, had never heard of XXXX.

Complaint narrative:
On I wrote to you requesting an investigation into items that I believed were fraud, inaccurate, and falsely reporting. To this date only response that I have received was computer-generated letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA. 
I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance. 
I further remind you that, as in White v. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX - XXXX.

In addition, any the contract signed between NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS & the original creditor, notarized and sworn under penalty and perjury NON CREDITORS, COLLECTION AGENCIES, and DEBT COLLECTORS ability to collect this alleged debt. 
I request this under 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of debts. If information is not provided or the false reporting isnt removed ; as in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be reinvestigated.

Complaint narrative:
Something happened during the refinance process on my mortgage. My payments were as they promised for XXXX year. Then I was told that the loan was {$1800.00} short in the escrow, and had been since the refinance. It's made the mortgage payments much bigger to catch up with the shortage, resulting in late payments and additional fees. The mortgage company has stated that the insurance was not paid, but I spoke with the insurance company and they received their payments all along, including the one at closing. 
I refinanced in XXXX of XXXX. It's been a nightmare since XX/XX/XXXX with continual late fees and increased payments.

Company: HYUNDAI CAPITAL AMERICA
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
When we purchased our vehicle, the payment date was set up for the XXXX of the month, we had requested the payment be changed to the end of each month, which was done with the first payment being due the end of XX/XX/XXXX. 

In XX/XX/XXXX Hyundai Finance changed our due date to the XXXX and charged a late fee for the payment not being received by their new due date. I called Hyundai Finance to inquire why they had changed the due date, they alleged that I had requested for the date to be changed. I did not and would not, neither my husband nor I would have ever done this. They refused to change the date back to the agreed payment date. 

A couple of weeks ago I again called Hyundai Finance to have my due date corrected and changed back to the end of the month. I explained that I had XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and that I would not be receiving my Social Security pay until the XXXX Wednesday of the month. I was again told that I had already changed it once and it could not be changed again. The agent helping me found a note where I had called in XXXX asking why they had changed my due date. 

As you can see per the attached, they did not change the date back to the end of the month. I have accrued two late fees for different amounts due to them not correcting the due date back to the end of the month. 

I remember at the time ( XXXX ), there was a obvious glitch in Hyundai Finance 's system that the agent I had talked with at the time acknowledged, but could/would not correct the issue.
