Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Their investigation did not fix an error on your report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
I have been disputing this reported information on the XXXX XXXX XXXX account since XX/XX/XXXX and have disputed it multiple times. 

Experian is reporting this as a repossession when it should be a mortgage, they are also listing a different date of last activity ( XX/XX/XXXX ) than XXXX. In addition, they are the only bureau reporting late payments where there are no late payments. Also, it is obvious that this was never verified as the last reported date is listed as XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX is also reporting this as a repossession when it should be reporting it as a mortgage. They are also reporting erroneous positive payments on the account. Their date of last activity is reporting as XX/XX/XXXX, meaning this was illegally re-aged. They also have the last reported date listed as XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX is not reporting anything on this account.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Since XX/XX/XXXX until now I have been making bi-weekly payments of XXXX towards the principal amount of my federal student loan. Per COVID federal forbearance no interest was to occur during this time. From XX/XX/XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX all payments went to interest and zero went to principal. Since XX/XX/XXXX payments made are randomly applied to interest or principal. I have called them on XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX to credit my principal as no interest was to accrue during this time. The first person said it was because payments came from my checking. The second time after over an hour they said my loan requires payment to interest even if no interest occurs regardless of the federal forbearance. After an hour I was suppose to be transferred to a supervisor which instead they hung up on me.They are refusing to fix my loan amount and apply payments to principal. I request that you look into this immediately as I am sure I am not the only one being scammed.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
Our home was damaged from winds during Hurricane Laura. The repairs are 95 % complete. We had to file a lawsuit against our wind insurance company. We settled our lawsuit. The insurance co. placed Wells Fargo 's name on the check which was in the amount of {$150000.00}. We mailed the check to WF about 4 months ago and we still have not received our funds. Our home is worth at least {$800000.00}. The principal remaining on our WF note is {$150000.00}. We have attempted to have WF release our settlement funds with no help. We have called at least 8 times, been to the WF in XXXX, Texas, and finally a 3rd party inspector came to view the house almost a month ago. We complied with every requirement WF has asked, including at least 40 pictures showing completion of the work. We are getting the run around from WF and it is very frustrating. We need the money for finishing repairs and other things in our life. Our precious XXXX XXXX XXXX son passed away just 6 months ago and this issue with WF is not helping our grief. Please have WF send us our funds. We have never been late on a payment ( auto draft ). Thank you for your help.

Company: ARVEST BANK GROUP, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I entered into a loan agreement with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. As part of this loan it was mutaully agreed once the principle hit 80 % of the loan or below ( see attached PMI Disclosure signed by all parties marked as exhibit A ). The PMI would be cancelled upon request and verification of the Value. ( See PMI Removal information request sheet marked as exhibit B ) and the ( Appraisal work sheet showing an appriased value of {$400000.00} thousand dollars marked as exhibit C ). Note all I needed was {$390000.00} value according to Arvest Central Mortgage inital responce. ( attached as exhibit B ). 

On XX/XX/2022 I was denied PMI removal ( see attached exhibit D ) Arvest moved the criteria without a mutual agreement. Note now they want 75 % principle. This is in best case unfair and in the worst case fraudulent and preditory in nature. I would like Arvest to honnor the agreement I made with XXXX home Mortgages as they have agreed to service the loan with the same terms and conditions. 

Please Feel free the ask for anything else you need.

Product: Checking or savings account — Savings account
Issue: Closing an account — Can't close your account
Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: VT

Complaint narrative:
My XXXX online savings account was sold to Citizens and transferred in XXXX, XXXX. I went to the XXXX, VT branch of Citizens bank to close the account on XX/XX/XXXX and I received the full balance and was told the account was closed. 

However, I continued to receive statements and emails from Citizens about fee waivers expiring and such. I returned to the branch on XX/XX/XXXX and was told the account was terminated. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I received an email from Citizens reminding me about fees ( fees were mentioned XXXX times ). I returned to the bank on XX/XX/XXXX and was told the account could not be found and to call customer service. I was unable to reach a person at customer service. I returned to the bank again on XX/XX/XXXX and was now told repeatedly the account, which could not be found the day prior, was closed and they had no idea what the fee reminder email was about or who sent it ( I brought printouts ; see attachments ). 

On XX/XX/XXXX, the branch manager XXXX XXXX XXXX ) repeatedly REFUSED to provide written confirmation that the account was closed ( " We don't do that '' ). I am deeply alarmed by this. 

Lastly, on XX/XX/XXXX I mailed from XXXX, VT ( XXXX ) a written request for confirmation of account closure to both the XXXX, VT branch and the central customer service center of Citizens in XXXX, RI. The letter to RI has been received, while the letter to XXXX, VT has had a delivery exception. I have not yet received a response. 

The account should be closed, but the XXXX, VT branch will not provide written confirmation and I continue to receive emails indicating to me it is open. Therefore, I believe the account is still open with a balance of {$0.00} and that I will start accruing " maintenance fees '' which may harm my credit. Out of fear for this, and due to their refusal to confirm closure on XX/XX/XXXX, I am submitting this complaint to the CFPB. 

I never agreed at any moment to be a customer of Citizens Bank. 


Attached are the following documents : 1. Scan of welcome letter from Citizens detailing my XXXX account transition to Citizens. 
2. A copy of an account statement from XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX showing a balance of XXXX. 
3. A screenshot of an XXXX XXXX XXXX internet alert showing Citizens changed the account holder on XX/XX/XXXX. This is 40 days after I closed the account. 
4. A copy of the email from Citizens on XX/XX/XXXX showing that fees will be starting. Fees are mentioned XXXX times. 
5. A copy of my XX/XX/XXXX letter requesting written confirmation of account closure. This letter was sent to both XXXX, VT branch and the central customer service center of Citizens Bank. 
6. XXXX receipt and tracking numbers to show written request ( attachment 5 ) was mailed on XX/XX/XXXX.
