Complaint narrative:
XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX, sends out letters on company letter head as law firm, they are debt collectors who go to court for other companies. But how do they own the debt and why do they appear to the individual as the attorney for the Plaintiff when they are debt collectors. They sign each letter but if you read the end it states we are a debt collector any information will be used for that purpose they do not do Debt Validity. When you call you never get through, I was a victim of Identity theft. Yet I have to send that affidavit to an entirely different company that is not even on the Docket. It is very confusing. This company is practicing Unethical practices to try to XXXX XXXX or do Wage Garnishment. They can not be the attorney and the debt collector for the company who is suing. I have been through financial turmoil because of this company. I am not the only one, I believe they try to get all old debt and then go to court as the Attorney and the Debt collector. Who owns the debt the Plaintiff the law firm, New Jersey Superior court should not accept these lawsuits or practices from this Firm as it is unethical.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have tried numerous times to get ahold of someone at Experian. I believe that there is a fraudulent online Experian account in my name and SSN. I have very good reason to believe this to be true because there were fraudulent accounts at both XXXX and at XXXX. Since I was recently hacked, with several credit cards being compromised, and several credit accounts attempted to be opened, it is obvious that someone out there has my information. When I try to reach Experian, I just get the computer voice, who refuses to let me talk to a real person and insists that she can help me, when in fact, she can not. This is not an issue that I would be able to resolve online because, you see, a fraudulent account would have an email address associated with it which is not mine. There are actually problems that require a real person to resolve and not a computer.

Product: Mortgage — Other type of mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: GATEWAY FIRST BANK
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
This issue pertains to my Secondary Home Improvement Loan - originated and serviced by Gateway Mortgage - a division of Gateway First Bank. This morning ( XX/XX/2023 ) I talked with a Gateway Mortgage representative named XXXX. He was about the least helpful associate I've dealt with in decades of working with Banks and Mortgage Lenders. My question surrounded why Gateway mortgage has been incorrectly applying the extra payment I started sending to them since last XXXX. Basically, they've been taking the extra payment and applying it ahead in a way that ensures they are receiving their interest payment. He told me that I did not need to make a payment until next XXXX!! Every other bank in the world takes that overage and applies it to the Principle- on the month it's paid. I am asking the CFBP to look at this suspect practice as it clearly violates Truth in Lending laws ( and I'm sure several other laws aimed at mitigating deceptive practices by large banks ). Moreover, XXXX said that he'd " submit a ticket and some supervisor would call me back in 24-48 hours ''. When I asked him for the ticket number for confirmation he said he couldn't give it to me. Beware of this company!! They do NOT keep customer service in mind and their practices are clearly something the CFPB should investigate. At this point, Gateway Mortgage has applied over {$600.00} to their own interest vs. buying down the principle of the loan. Again, this is a very deceptive practice and one that should be punished.

Complaint narrative:
This is my THIRD request for help and so far you have done absolutely NOTHING. In prior requests I told you Experian was showing my credit score XXXX points lower than other bureaus. They were showing charge-offs for three accounts resolved in bankruptcy and after doing that my score went up by only one point. This month my score has dropped again by XXXX points. I can not reach Experian. You can not penetrate their phone lines because you can not get a live person. I have called every number they have. Experian is hiding from consumers and not helping them.
