Complaint narrative:
Complaint Summary : This is a follow-up to my initial CFPB complaint regarding an illegal wage garnishment initiated by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Despite my prior submission, both entities have doubled down on their unlawful garnishment activities, and their responses to my original complaint demonstrate continued disregard for consumer protection laws and constitutional due process. 

XXXX XXXX : - I am a legal XXXX  resident, and XXXX  law prohibits wage garnishment for consumer debt. 

- I was never properly served in the underlying case. XXXX admits to mailing notice to an outdated XXXX  address despite knowing I had moved to XXXX. 

- The vehicle in question was repossessed from my XXXX  residence, which proves they had my correct address. 

- My XXXX change of address was filed nearly a XXXX  before the publication service. 

- XXXX  admits they did not receive a response and proceeded with publication instead of attempting service at my known XXXX  address. 

- XXXX  and XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX and XXXX case law to justify garnishment, despite my clear XXXX  residency and protections under modern consumer law. 

Response to XXXXXXXX XXXX Argument : XXXX claims that by requesting a reduction in garnishment, I 'acquiesced " to the judgment. This is misleading and legally unsound. I was under financial duress and unaware of my rights at the time. Acknowledging a garnishment once it begins does not waive my constitutional right to challenge a void judgment for lack of jurisdiction and improper service. XXXX  can not use coercive tactics to validate an otherwise illegal process. 

Response to XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX  response ignores the fact that the underlying judgment was obtained without proper service and that their garnishment actions violate XXXX  law. They continue to pursue garnishment knowing full well I live in a non-garnishment state and that the vehicle was repossessed in XXXX. Their reference to a future hearing does not absolve them from prior unlawful conduct. 

Failure to Acknowledge Prior Dismissed Case : Both XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX have repeatedly failed to address or acknowledge the existence of a prior lawsuit on the same debt that was dismissed. This prior dismissal indicates that the matter had already been resolved or at minimum required renewed legal action with proper notice and service not a restart through publication without attempting direct contact. Their omission of this critical procedural history is misleading and contributes to the deprivation of my due process rights. 


Supporting Evidence Previously Submitted Includes : - XXXX Change of Address Confirmation - Repo documentation showing the vehicle was picked up and sold in XXXX  - Evidence of continued XXXX  residency and no XXXX  ties since XXXX

Complaint narrative:
Good evening, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX This afternoon at XXXX p.m. we were sitting at the closing table with many unanswered questions. So, thank you for calling me at XXXX p.m. today on behalf of XXXX not being available, I did appreciate speaking with you. 

As you know, we are extremely disappointed and disheartened by the prolonged and stressful nature of this mortgage loan process. What should have been an exciting milestone has instead been overshadowed by repeated delays, poor communication, and a feeling of disrespect. The extended timeline and ongoing uncertainly have caused significant strain, and we believe our concerns have not been treated with the urgency that you spoke of today. This experience has left us feeling frustrated and undervalued as clients. 

You mentioned several times that you are all available XXXX and wished we had this conversation early on and not today at closing. And I mentioned to you that I had called you early on and your voicemail box was full. I also learned this evening that my daughter XXXX called you early on, left you a voicemail and you did not return her call. Despite all of that, the process has been incredibly challenging. 

You were kind in your apologies and offered to assist at the recasting of this loan, which I will discuss with XXXX. 

Respectfully XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX P.S. below is a snapshot of the past call log XXXX XXXX call log from XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX no call back XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX no call back XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX no call back XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX no call back XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX no call back Dane XX/XX/XXXX - request to XXXX via email - never called XX/XX/XXXX - request to call - never called XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX no call back XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX no call back XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX no call back XXXX XXXX pm- said he would text me when we got the clear to close. Never texted XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX Many Emails and VMs sent do to the fact that we have no payment information as to where to make our first mortgage payment due XXXX. 

this has been the most terrible experience ever experienced.
