Complaint narrative:
I was shocked to see that incorrect accounts appeared on my credit report this morning, and I have no idea how this happened. I regularly check my credit report, but this time, out of nowhere, there were discrepancies. I even tried refreshing my browser, thinking it might be a glitch, but nothing changed. The inaccurate accounts remained there even after refreshing. Because of this, I am requesting a thorough review of the documents Ive submitted so I can stop worrying about this happening again.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unavailability of my credit data from your bureau. As a diligent consumer who consistently monitors their credit profile, I am troubled by the recent discovery that vital information seems to be missing from your records. Despite being proactive in managing my finances and ensuring timely payments on all accounts, I have encountered significant hurdles due to the absence of my credit data from your bureau. This has not only caused inconvenience but has also put me in a precarious position, especially concerning recent financial transactions and loan applications. I have made numerous attempts to address this issue through your customer service channels, but regrettably, the resolution process has been slow and ineffective. As a result, I find myself facing unnecessary challenges in accessing essential financial services and opportunities.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Escrow, taxes, or insurance
Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NM

Complaint narrative:
I'll start off by saying that I already have an outstanding complaint in with the CFPB because Truist can not, for the life of themselves, simply take the money I put in escrow every month, then pay insurance companies correctly, and then acknowledge the live policy with XXXX page from my homeowners insurance that they have been provided. This has been an ongoing issue that has been completely maddening and has wasted a tremendous amount of my time. 

This issue though is not in regards to my homeowners insurance, but to my flood insurance. I am required to have flood insurance on my mortgage. I have coverage. Coverage has never lapsed. I have always had the amount of coverage the bank has requested. The flood insurance premiums have always been paid out from my escrow and Truist always gets a copy of the XXXX pages. 

And yet, today I got a letter stating that : " Our records show that your flood insurance does not provide sufficient coverage and we XXXX not have evidence that you have otained sufficient coverage ... '' It then goes on to tell me that they will place bank-forced insurance onto my account and charge me for that policy if I do not comply. 

Even if I did have " insufficient coverage '', then sending me a threatening letter without telling me what " sufficient coverage '' would actually be, is mind-blowing in its complete ineptitude. I know that the CFPB and various government regulations mandate that these sort of letters be sent out. I also have no doubt that no where in the regulations does it advise/insist that mortgage companies send out letters that inform customers of absent or insufficient insurance, but then advise the lender not to even inform the customer of what " sufficient coverage '' would even be! 

Regardless of all that though, I don't, and never have had " insufficient coverage ''. This was acknowledged on a phone call I made this afternoon, XXXX XX/XX/year> at XXXX. I spoke to a representative named XXXX who reviewed my account and acknowledged that I had flood insurance on both my main home structure as well as a separate policy on the guest house structure. XXXX also acknowledged that I not only had coverage, but that my coverage was " sufficient ''. 

She said she would put in a request internally for someone to fix the issue that triggered my getting these notices in the first place, but after having received so many of them, I do not have any faith that Truist can manage their own processes, and that I won't be sent another letter threatening to fine me for not paying for insurance that I already paid for, and that Truist simply can not record correctly in their own systems.

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.
