Product: Mortgage — Other type of mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Lien release
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
My property ID number has erroneously been attached to a lien filed by Wachovia bank now in possession of Wells Fargo financial institution. This problemed surfaced only by coincidence. I started with the local branch in XXXX, NC to resolve this issue, which was pointless, followed by relentless hours on the phone being fed ridiculous statements. I finally received an e-mail from a XXXX XXXX that acknowledged the error but no legal separation from this lien. I am not being told no information can be shared with me because I am not named on the complaint. I did seek legal assistance also pointless as he has allowed to the bank to tell him how it would be handled. Me and my property is held by this lien in obligation based on a signature that Wells Fargo is waiting on from the lien holder on this open line of equity credit. The document is filed with the correct names ( not me ) and the address of the lien holder as well as matching description of the correct lien property. My property is not located near or even same identified city of the correct lien property or owner. I do not receive communication from Wells Fargo concerning this open line of credit or any documents that may indicate the line of credit is delinquent. At this point the account could be delinquent, and the bank isn't fixing the error only to take my property. I will not know any legal action taken against my property until it is taken from me and owned by whoever. 

Yes, I have dismissed the attorney I mistakenly chose but seeking another individual that can hopefully do more than sit and wait for my property to be taken. 

My last contact with Wells Fargo was from : XXXX XXXX XXXX Representative XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Wells Fargo XXXX XXXX XXXX Wells Fargo XXXX, XXXX, MN XXXX Tel : XXXX XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/XXXX, I first discovered that I had been a victim of identity fraud, which caused multiple unauthorized accounts and inaccurate information to appear on my credit report.

Then, in XX/XX/XXXX, I encountered another identity theft issue, this time involving a fraudulent bank account opened in my name with XXXX  XXXX XXXX. I immediately reported this incident to both XXXX  XXXX XXXX and the credit bureaus, submitting documentation to prove my identity and verify the fraud.

State: TX

Complaint narrative:
White & Jacobs Associates XXXX XXXX XXXX  I contacted this company around XX/XX/year> I started paying XXXX a month for their credit monitoring, and {$150.00} twice a month for their credit repair service. 
Its XXXX and nothing was repaired, and Ive received no letters from credit bureaus, like I have from previous credit repair companies. 
I also never received the call from the attorney like they said I would. 
XXXX XXXX made all these promises about them being a group of lawyers, and auditing the credit bureaus, yet I received a letter not about a dispute, but how they couldnt really resolve anything on my behalf. This letter was from XXXX, now if you cant resolve issues why do you need a power of attorney, unless your just full of XXXX, which they are. I also received a letter from experian stating this company tried to access my company, but could not. This company owes me {$510.00}. I saw other reviews where the company owes others more, like around {$1500.00}. This is a huge fraudulent scam and needs to be dealt with before it gets any more out of hand. 
They are committing fraud. 
They are impersonating lawyers. 
They are running a pyramid scheme by trying to get clients to recruit others. 
They also harassed me for reviews, and begged me for family and friend contact information. Which I never provided. 
The have fake 5 star reviews. You have to read the lowest reviews to get the truth of what theyre doing to consumers. 
They have fake websites and looks like fake photos on there websites. 
This company soul purpose is to take advantage of people under false pretenses related to credit repair. This place needs to be investigated and shutdown immediately. There is no telling what other fraudulent practices or activities they are involved in.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/year> Subject : Request for Investigation and Correction of Inaccurate Late Payments on My Credit Report Dear CFPB, Following your agency 's completion of the investigation as outlined in this complaint, I am writing to request a detailed description of the investigation process followed by TransUnion regarding the disputed accounts on my credit report. Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 USC 1681i ( a ) ( 7 ), credit reporting agencies are obligated to provide a description of the investigation within 15 days of receiving a consumer 's dispute. 
I recently reviewed my credit report and noticed that my XXXX  XXXX account includes inaccurately reported late payments. I have consistently paid this account on time, and there have been no late payments. As a credit reporting agency, TransUnion is required to report all information with complete accuracy. Therefore, I am requesting that you investigate this account and update the payment status to reflect timely payments. 
Summary of Errors and Discrepancies : In reviewing the payment history, I have identified discrepancies in reported late payments that do not match my actual payment record : XXXX reports a XXXX late payment for XX/XX/year>. 
TransUnion and XXXX report a XXXX late payment for XX/XX/year>. 
These entries are incorrect and negatively impact my credit profile. According to my records, all payments were made on time, and no late payments should appear on this account.

Legal Basis for Dispute : Under the FCRA ( 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) ), my consumer report should not contain information that inaccurately reflects my payment history. Inaccurate reporting of late payments is a violation of the FCRA and misrepresents my creditworthiness. Additionally, sections 15 U.S.C. 1681i and 1681s-2 mandate that credit reporting agencies, including XXXX, XXXX any inaccuracies or incomplete information to ensure maximum accuracy. 
Requested Action : I request that TransUnion conduct a comprehensive investigation into this account and remove the inaccurate late payment entry to reflect my accurate, on-time payment history. 
Please provide a description of the procedures used to verify the accuracy of these entries and confirm the removal of these inaccuracies in writing within 30 days of this complaints submission. Failure to resolve this issue XXXX lead to further action to protect my rights as a consumer. 
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to receiving confirmation of the corrections within the timeframe mandated by the FCRA. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
