Hello Dear, It is about XXXX XXXX XXXX, AMOUNT AROUND XXXX My credit report shows repossession on XX/XX/2020 I have receipt/conformation that showed I paided my bill up to XX/XX/2020then the payment REJECTED by creditor. 

It is still not clear why my car got repossessed. I realized my car repossessed on XXXX after calling to request payment deferral for month of XXXX while abroad for church mission and stacked there because of covid no flight order. Problems with XXXX XXXX, APPLICABLE FACTS ( 1 ) Not notifying I have electronic consent to be notified/get any alert. But XXXX failed to do so, instead send only " mail '' to my old address/not the mailing address that I updated on XXXX XXXX XXXX online account. 
( 2 ) Rejecting Auto payment after XX/XX/XXXX ( payment for XXXX ), and reported it credit beauros as not paid. 
( 3 ) After talking and agreed to reclaim my vehicle, but not answering call when to pick up ( physically closed ), XXXX refused to postpone, auctioned it with out any notification. 
APPLICABLE LAWS IN NEVADA ( 1 ) The registerd owner must be at least " 30 '' days in default. I have paided till XX/XX/2020.Even if reported otherwise. 
( 2 ) The repossession company must notify the registered owner in each step of the repossession. 
( 3 ) The repossession company can adjust payment agreement and return the vehicle to the owner. 
CONCLUSION So if not in defult and XXXXnot notified, it must be considered as wrongful repossession and may be required to have court judgment to reposses in Nevada XXXX 
Contracting creditor beauros or the company failed to solve the issue. 
Best Regards

Company: Flagstar Bank, N.A.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have my Home mortgage with Flagstar Bank which has been paid automatically via my personal account ( XXXX XXXX ). This was arranged through the Flagstar bank 's website. Back in XX/XX/2021, XXXX was bought out by another Bank, XXXX. Unfortunately, for month of XXXX, the amount was not drafted automatically by Flagstar bank since my personal account now was changed to XXXX XXXX. I have been very busy as a physician working in the hospital and treating XXXX infected patients almost every day over the last XXXX years where I contracted the virus and suffered very severely. I had peace of mind that the loan is on Auto-pay and there must not be any issues with the monthly payments. Apparently, Flagstar Bank has a WRONG CONTACT NUMBER on my file. They claimed that I have been contacted via that WRONG NUMBER and a message was left for me. The bank admitted that the phone number was wrong after all. Accordingly, after the payment was delayed for more than XXXX days, I was reported to CREDIT BUREAU! Unfortunately, I noticed their malicious action when I was informed about my dropped XXXX XXXX. Instantly I called Flagstar Bank while I was in the hospital, I informed them about the error and the balance was paid instantly over the phone. I was informed that I have to file a complaint to their " Credit Report Department '' to dispute the report, which did. After multiple attempts, based on their own response, without even mentioning any words about the " XXXX Cause of the Error '', they responded as, '' payment was delayed and report was appropriate ''. I am just shocked and surprised how insensitive, irresponsible and apathic a financial institute can be??!! I reported Flagstar Bank to XXXX and CFPB an I strongly believe the bank 's action is inappropriate and unnecessary. I hope their Credit Report Department review the case properly, before I dispute their unjust action through a legal complaint.

TransUnion has failed to properly investigate my report since I have seen a lot of issues and errors reporting on it. Also, they have failed to comply with my request of submitting any proof for me to validate the result of their investigation. They consciously continue to report unfamiliar, incorrect, and unauthorized items on my report which is hurting my credit credentials. This should be stopped immediately.

Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
Today XX/XX/XXXX I was charged for an unauthorized amount from an apple card. I have never applied for an apple card. Right away, I created an account with XXXX the same day to start and monitor my credit because I've had problems in the past, and found an apple account was opened in XX/XX/XXXX. It was paid as agreed until XX/XX/XXXX and late charges started to occur. I have no knowledge of this account and have never had any late or negative things reporting on my credit until this incident. I have over XXXX years of paid as agreed accounts. I am filing this report/claim as identity theft to me. Somehow my information has been linked and XXXX has a report of some of my information being found in the dark web. This incident has started to negatively effect my credit and I hope this is corrected as soon as possible. XXXX and XXXX XXXX provided me the statements for this account and a bunch of charges to apple were made from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX where in XX/XX/XXXX the late payments started to take effect. I don't think I would have let a an account become delinquent and my credit history should prove that. I have never applied for a apple card through XXXX XXXX. I disputed the account with XXXX and they told me to file a report with the FTC. I hope this is resolved in a timely manner.

Complaint narrative:
Why it's so hard to fix credit report errors? The Experian credit reporting agency has been listing 2 different social securities on my credit file. One social security belongs to someone else. I disputed the same issues a long time ago. They deleted someone else 's social security, and then they added someone else 's social security number again. 

I have also been disputing the error from XXXX XXXX ; unfortunately, it's not getting corrected. 

1. The Experian listed duplicated negative marks to my credit file. Same account numbers with different amounts. And it has been reaged. 

2. I disputed an error about XXXX XXXX XXXX remarks on my credit file that the car loan account was over due in XX/XX/XXXX. This account was never late since XXXX XXXX and I agreed with the news Settlement Agreement on XX/XX/XXXX. The amount listed on my credit report is not the amount shown on the new settlement agreement.

Company: AES/PHEAA
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I attended XXXX XXXX XXXX  from XXXX. My son, XXXX XXXX attended XXXX XXXX from XXXX. He was offered a XXXX scholarship to attend. In XXXX, I made a direct payment for the cost of the additional amount due after the Scholarship and grants were applied. In XXXX, I agreed to accept responsibility for a parent plus loan in the amount {$8200.00} after the Scholarship and grants were applied. In XXXX, XXXX was living off campus, no longer in the dormitory or on the meal plan and the Scholarship and grants were applied. In XXXX, my husband offered his GI Bill Benefits for the remainder of XXXX 's educational tenure and therefore, all expenses in excess of the Scholarship and grants were paid for by the VA program. I can see where several loans are listed more than once and then all rolled into a consolidation loan. Since XXXX, I have called and written countless times to the XXXX XXXX and had discussions with FSA and Fedloan Servicing. I have just spoken to XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX  in the financial aid office. She confirmed that the loans I have received for my education and the parent plus loan for my son total about {$40000.00}. She is unable to see the same amounts that the Fedloan website indicates. She also said their office is required by law to submit all documentation loan agreements charged against me. I have asked their office in the past for these and was instructed to contact the university. The debt charged against me is over {$160000.00} with interest at this point. I am giving this XXXX last effort to resolve the amount I owe in Parent Plus Student Loans before seeking legal advice and taking action against FedLoan Servicing for fraudulent student aid practices.

Good Afternoon- In XXXX of last year I purchased a new vehicle. Wells Fargo is to whom I owe my loan to. However XX/XX/2022 XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  While being sick many financial complications came with it. When I called the auto loan department on the XXXX of XXXX when my payment was due she stated I had 30 days to make the payment.

Company: Shellpoint Partners, LLC
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
XXXX My name is XXXX XXXX loan number XXXX, Shellpoint Motrgaging Service, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX OH XXXX I was unfortunately affected by covid and was forced to skip my mortgage payments during the pandemic. I have been hospitalized and am unable to work during the pandemic and suffered from many long-haul covid symptoms. Once my forbearance period ended, I was told that I needed to make XXXX trial payments in XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX of XXXX. I even made XXXX payment on XXXX of XXXX. 

I made these XXXX payments on time and was given a new loan modification. The following is a direct quote from XXXX XXXX passed by the US Congress stating that one 's account is supposed to be reported as " current '' to the credit bureaus. 

" If your account is current and you make an agreement to make a partial payment, skip a payment, or other accommodation, then the creditor is to report to credit reporting companies that you are current on your loan or account.  '' XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Shellpoint is breaking the law and reporting me as more than 120 days past due, despite the fact that I have made XXXX payments in a row as they have requested. 
My first request is that they immediately fix this error and report me to the XXXX credit bureaus as the current which is in accordance with US law. 

My second request is that Shellpoint lowers my monthly payment. Before the pandemic, I was paying {$2000.00} per month and had XXXX  years left on my mortgage. 

The new terms that I was sent are requesting that I now pay {$2100.00} for 40 years. 
Shellpoint has raised my monthly payment and added XXXX  years to my previous payment. 

XXXX  years of an extra {$2100.00} per month will result in {$420000.00} of money owed. 
This loan modification was meant to help consumers, not hurt them. 

In such a case when my monthly mortgage amount increases and the years increase as well. I need to have a lower fixed interest to make this situation surmountable. I have a family of XXXX and do not want to lose my home. 

Please do all that you can to help my situation. 

XXXX bless you, XXXX XXXX XXXX
