Product: Mortgage — FHA mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage — 
Company: Click n' Close, Inc.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
We have tried through multiple companies & different people ways to save my Home to no avail! Id lost his teaching job due to Covid. After battling unemployment & trying to regain employment Ive sadly continued hitting dead ends. With No help or any kind of needed information which could be available in helping me save my home. Ive been treated rudely & also feel like Ive had my valuable time wasted when it couldve been used in whatever I do need to be focusing on to save my house instead of what Ive been dealing with. With my home mortgage provider I was given total of only 6 months of the offered forbearance program, instead of XXXX months that Ive read others had been given. I cant understand why I wasnt offered such an option as well? Instead Ive been thrown into foreclosure. Weve been talking to home counselor & have been getting a run around, no answers, no phone calls back or emailing until weve sent many out. We were told today that weve taken too long and not sure if they can or cant assist us. We owe {$190000.00} and home is worth {$500000.00}. Under no circumstance would it make sense to have our home go to auction. Due to not having employment makes it impossible to get an equity line of credit or refinance. Im a member of the XXXX XXXX in Washington state. For my income I receive a per-capita of $ 2400 monthly for my income including Along w/2 renters at {$650.00} a month whom Ive had for over 2 years plus. Ive been renting rooms from my home as income since purchasing the house 7 years ago. To help me pay my living expenses in general. Ive claimed this income on my taxes as well. Combines income is $ XXXX $ XXXX {$3700.00} monthly income. I REALLY need some assistance please. Ive read all these other options offered from Covid relief and cant understand why Im not qualified for any of them? I feel like the people Ive spoken to have only caused me to waste time. I dont have to waste

Complaint narrative:
Dear XXXX, I recently reviewed my credit report and found unauthorized inquiries. 
I contacted the below creditors and they have NO proof I initiated such inquiries, nor written authorization and have failed to provide any permissible purpose. 
Since they do not have my authorization, written nor verbal I ask that you DELETE these authorized inquiries from my credit report immediately as there is no evidence of any authorization, nor any permissible purpose. 
According to Section 604 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Permissible Purposes of Consumer Reports 15 U, S. Code 16816 In general. Subject to subsection ( e ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( F ) otherwise has a legitimate business need for the information ( I ) in connection with a business transaction that is initiated by the consumer.

Under 15 U.S. Code 16811, Paragraph ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information ( A ) In general. If, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of the information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall- ( i ) promptly delete The following inquiries are unauthorized : Creditor : RESIDENT VERIFY Inquiry Date : XXXX Creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX Inquiry Date : XXXX Creditor XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Inquiry Date XXXX XXXX I AM REQUESTING UNDER XXXX XXXX THAT THESE INQUIRES ARE IMMEDIATELY REMOVED FROM MY CREDIT REPORT FCRA $ 605B ( 15 U.S.C. $ 1681c-2 ) ( a ) Block. Except as otherwise provided in this section, a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt by such agency of - ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer : ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report : ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer; and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer.

I look forward to receiving an updated copy of my credit report reflecting the above correction.

Product: Credit card or prepaid card — General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Problem when making payments — You never received your bill or did not know a payment was due
Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
The Apple/GS Credit Card filed that I was over 60 days delinquent when in fact I was unable to make a payment due to inadequacies in their system. 

I purchased a new XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and agreed to pay for it through the Apple/GS credit card. I was told at the time that I would receive statements via email, and the XXXX employees and I spent considerable time confirming my email address. When I received the physical card some weeks later there was no information on it, no account number, and more importantly, no telephone number for customer service. Several months went by before I finally received a letter from Apple/GS with a contact phone number. I called them immediately, and they walked me through the process of setting up the Wallet App and then provided me with detailed instructions for making payments by check through the mail. 

None of the information I received at the XXXX XXXX turned out to be correct. 
( 1 ) In order to function properly, your Apple ID must match your current email address. This was never conveyed to me until nearly 6 months later. This would make it impossible for Apple/GS to contact me electronically. 
( 2 ) Even with the proper email address, the Apple/GS card never produces a statement of any kind unless you specifically call customer support and ask for one. This appears to be a violation of Federal law. 
( 3 ) You are expected to use their App as the only mechanism for making payments which makes it impossible to set up any kind of payment schedule with your bank. As a victim of identity theft in XXXX I am rather reticent about sharing bank information with an App on my phone.

Complaint narrative:
After XXXX failed attempts to rectify my issues with Mohela, I am completely frustrated. My consolidation was sent on XX/XX/XXXX. I recieved information that it would've processed timely. Yet they processed it in XXXX as well as my payments are sitting in XXXX. No updates have been given after calls by myself to check status but the same rhetorical statements. 
Due to the due date of the waiver, this has placed me in a horrible situation that I would like to be rectified. Mohela calls range from ( XXXXXXXX XXXX hold times ) with no resolution.
