Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: CCS Financial Services, Inc.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I have disputed this debt numerous times. I sent XXXX XXXX XXXX a validation letter and never received any of the information I asked for in the letter to validate the debt. Also, while the debt is in dispute XXXX XXXX XXXX has broken the law. Disputed information is not to be reported while in dispute on credit report and this collection agency has put negative information on my credit report with out validation nor have they responded to my request of validation. I sent this letter to Credit Collection Services : I am writing this letter in response to the phone call/letter received from you on ( Date ).  In conformance to my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am requesting you to provide me with a validation of the debt that you talked of earlier. Please note, this is not a refusal to pay, rather a statement that your claim is disputed and validation is demanded. ( 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) ) I do hereby request that your office provide me with complete documentation to verify that I owe the said debt and have any legal obligation to pay you. 

Please provide me with the following : Agreement with the creditor that authorizes you to collect on this alleged debt The agreement bearing my signature stating that I have agreed to assume the debt Valid copies of the debt agreement stating the amount of the debt and interest charges Proof that the Statute of Limitations has not expired Complete payment history on this account along with an accounting of all additional charges being assessed Show me that you are licensed to collect in my state ; and Your license numbers and Registered Agent If your office fails to reply to this debt validation letter within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all instances related to this account must be immediately deleted and completely removed from my credit file. Moreover, all future attempts to collect on the said debt must be ceased. 

Your non-compliance with my request will also be construed as an absolute waiver of all claims to enforce the debt against me and your implied agreement to compensate me for court costs and attorney fees if I am forced to bring this matter before a judge. 

No one should have to be subject to this humiliation especially when it is a unknown account and possible identity theft.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — 
Company: Ditech Financial LLC
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
Underwent Foreclosure process back in XX/XX/XXXX and got a Loan modification under the Act 91, but due to other debt obligations ended up having to file Bankruptcy. During this course of Bankruptcy recently was discharged and I recently contacted DiTech ( partner with Green Tree Servicing LLC )  to request No Doc Loan Modification ( XX/XX/XXXX ) to enter into a new mortgage agreement and continuing paying in a timely fashion. But after continuing to contact them on a weekly/bi-weekly basis ... no one can provide details on my Loan Mod status ( called on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX ). In the interim, I received Foreclosure papers in the mail that a Civil Compliant - Mortgage Foreclosure was filed by XXXX XXXX, Counsel ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, PA XXXX, XXXX ) for Green Tree Servicing XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX ... which had the same exact documents filed from the original XX/XX/XXXX filing. 

They ignored my intention to undergo a Loan Modification and/or at least file with updated documents from current Loan and payments made ( from XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX ).  Being in a much better position than in XX/XX/XXXX ( financial status and mindset ), and having made payments consistently through the Bankruptcy court system ... you'd think that they would prefer to re-enter into a new agreement, sale the loan and keep it moving ... instead of inducing all extra cost of filing for Foreclosure all over again. 

I am distraught, and all I am trying to do is regain a foot hold on my mortgage obligation and re-establish

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a certified letter to XXXX XXXX requesting validation of several accounts they reported on my credit report. They responded by sending me a spreadsheet from XXXX XXXX XXXX which violated my HIPPA rights. I sent a certified letter again in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX requesting validation that these accounts were mine. I never received a validation with my signature that these accounts were mine. Therefore, I sent a certified letter to both XXXX & Transunion in XX/XX/XXXX requesting an investigation regarding these accounts. I sent a final request to XXXX  & Transunion in XX/XX/XXXX by certified letter, requesting validation and removal of these accounts. To this day these accounts remain on my credit report with absolutely no validation via signature that they belong to me. These accounts are also being reported on my husbands credit report ( XXXX XXXX )

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Wells Fargo SBA loan officer is using an acceleration clause and calling the total SBA loan amount due within 14 days, a total of {$510000.00} dollars.The SBA loan is in good standing, payments have been made. 
Wells Fargo 's stated reason for the accelerated payment request is over an unpaid line of credit of {$49000.00}. 
This line of credit was used by the previous owner of the corporation in the amount of {$27000.00}. Yet Wells Fargo is still trying to collect the entire amount of {$49000.00} from the company, moreover now we have to pay off the entire SBA loan amount of {$510000.00} Company made a {$25000.00} payment on XX/XX/2018 to stop the acceleration of the total loan, and further we made a commitment to pay the remaining amount as well since Wells Fargo would not stop the proceedings. 
However in the mean time the enclosed letter arrived from Wells Fargo holding the previous owner responsible for {$27000.00}. 
We have asked the loan officer to stop the acceleration payment and relieve us from the remaining debt obligation, however Wells Fargo is still perusing us for the total payment of the line of credit and the accelerated SBA payment. 
Please help us resolve this issue with Wells Fargo.

State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My current mortgage company " XXXX XXXX " reported me as being " serious delinquency '' during the months that the President Declared 6 months Forbearance for Texans who were affected by a Disaster - Hurricane Harvey. So no reporting should have been made from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. They reported me twice XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX. 

I have tried multiple times to review my account with them and have not received any help as they have seriously messed up my escrow account. It has taken over a year to try and get it straightened and still not corrected which is creating me being partially late on a payment. I was given personal managers names / emails / phone numbers with no reply by phone or email from them in trying to resolve my account. 

I am trying to sell / get approved for a new purchase but I am being denied due to the reporting. The new company I am working with suggested that I make this complaint.

Ally Financial has not applied payments to the car loan accurately, and they have added months on the payments as well as reporting that I have 12 missed payments which is all false. They also report a late payment every month the the credit bureaus. The car loan was for 72 months, I received the car in XX/XX/2015, which means there should be 36 months left on the loan but Ally Financial is reporting there is 44 months left on the loan. The loan started at XXXX and 3 years later it is showing XXXX left on the car loan, IMPOSSIBLE. Based on what Ally Financial numbers I will be paying almost double for this vehicle which is a used XXXX. This company is stealing and will not talk and explain any of it. I can never get anyone on the phone to explain this, they only say what is showing which is the same thing that I can see from the online system which is FALSE.
