Consumer complaint received 2024-09-12 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Improper use of your report — Report provided to employer without your written authorization
Company: MIDFIRST BANK
State: LA

Complaint narrative:
NONE of the boxes applied to my complaint, but it wouldn't let me skip them or write my own, so here it goes.. 

My dad passed away 11 weeks ago and I inherited his property, there are currently squatters living in the home that I am in the process of evicting. These squatters logged onto the Midland online account and changed the contact email to theirs instead of mine, while doing that, they saw my phone number and address. I called Midland to ask about this, and they then informed me that they also called Midland pretending to me and my daughter ( a crime! ) Midland should have IMMEDIATELY called me and not given them any information!! That is not what happened, I was not told until I called them asking about the change of the email address on the account. I was told I could put a PAC ( privacy access code ) on the account so that when someone logs in online or calls about the account, it would ask for a certain word before any information was given about the account. I have now called over 10 times and the PAC has NEVER been asked for. When I start asking about it, they give all kinds of excuses ranging from a computer glitch, to it only asking for the PAC on the 2nd page of the account, to it will be asked for next time you call in, which it never was. Because of Midland Mortgage, these squatters who are dangerous, now have all of my personal information. I have spoken to a supervisor, XXXX XXXX, to demand the audio and transcripts of the phone conversations between Midland and the squatters and was told to give her a few days. Those days have now passed, and I have called and left a voicemail, waiting on a return call from her, remains to be seen whether that call will ever be returned or not. The sheriff is now involved because calling and pretending to be someone to a mortgage company that you are not to get their personal information is a CRIME, as is the mortgage company releasing information to someone who is not on the account. Midland mortgage KNOWS all of this information and still REFUSES TO SECURE THIS ACCOUNT. There have been numerous other problems with this company other than this, this is just the most egregious. They also sent me the foreclose notice in the mail 3 days after I acquired the property in Succession and sent that to them. Many more things I could put in this complaint about Midland, but I would be typing all day. I have never dealt with a company that is more infuriating and unprofessional in my entire life. I work at a tiny family-owned business and even WE have to secure customer accounts.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information is missing that should be on the report
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX Bank account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

This about has more than tripled from when received. I have made multiple payments since starting repayment on this loan in XXXX.

My current payment options exceed what I can realistically pay and with no type of assistance I find myself with a lower XXXX XXXX that not even bankruptcy can assist with.

Complaint narrative:
The right to contest my credit report is something that every American has. In accordance with the FCRA Section 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( l ) ), I am exercising this privilege. I understand the nature of these proceedings - it's not just about whether or how much money was owed ( although we will explore both ), but also what kind of debt load can have on your life if they're left unchecked! The report-ability of any derogatory and or delinquent act is oftentimes questionable. I challenge this notion as I do not believe in reporting something unless there's factual documented proof to support it. You must report compliantly and accurately per federal and applicable reporting laws of my state. It is unlawful and unethical to retain any information which you know or should know does not comply with regulations.

This letter to you serves as a wake-up call to you to ensure that all data with my credit report is factual and in compliance with XXXX XXXX format reporting standards. I request that you validate with physical ( in writing to me as a response ) verifiable proof of permissible purpose for any of the alleged delinquent/derogatory accounts allegations of inquiry ( ies ) .Thankfully, I'm giving you 30 days to complete your investigation into the validity of this claim. If it's current and compliant with regulations then we'll leave things as they are ; but if not - well... I demand that you remove them from reporting ( my credit report ) immediately.I request that you send me physical documents proving your action ( s ) and my updated personal credit report following any correction ( s ). The following items appear questionable in reporting! Please ensure that each item below is accurate, reporting compliantly, completed and timely being reported or DELETE immediately :
