This company claims I now owe them XXXX. I have never gone into written agreement with them, nor was I privvy on how they acquired my PERSONAL INFORMATION.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I have serious concerns that American Express ( the Company ) is not adhering to the Fair Credit Billing Act, as it relates to my rights to a timely, accurate, fair, transparent, and equitable dispute process.

The Company is also failing to acknowledge and directly reply to my inquiries and submissions in this matter. I have made several attempts, and spent hours of hold and phone time, speaking with the Companys representatives, but have received nothing that could be considered responsive to my several statement and multiple correspondences on these disputes, which have been pending for almost 4 months now. 

These are high value items ( {$610.00} and {$640.00} ) and given the difficult economic conditions we all find ourselves in, I have serious concerns about the process, investigation, and outcome thus far. I am an XXXX XXXX XXXX  years-old, and really should not be required to be this vigilant and attentive to a matter, that by all objective measures, should have been closed in my favor some time ago.

Product: Mortgage — VA mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Freedom Mortgage Company
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I purchased my home in XX/XX/XXXX. A couple months after moving in, the mortgage lender, XXXX XXXX started sending me offers to refinance my loan ; however, I ignored all refinancing offers since I had a pretty good XXXX. About a year later in XX/XX/XXXX, I requested to have my property insurance removed from my mortgage payment. The request was denied by the lender with the reason stated that your principal balance for the mortgage loan must be less than or equal to 80 % of the original appraisal value. Ironically, one of the other reasons that my request could have been denied was you must not have completed a prior mortgage loan modification. Furthermore, an escrow analysis that was done in XX/XX/XXXX showed that I had a surplus of {$1100.00}, which was subsequently refunded to me. My mortgage was then transferred to Freedom Mortgage in XX/XX/XXXX, and my mortgage amount was increased by this lender supposedly due to an escrow shortage. When I inquired why my mortgage amount was greater when my home insurance actually decreased, the response was that the lender would not adjust payment if the difference is less than {$500.00}. Nevertheless, Freedom Mortgage made it a point to inform me on an ongoing basis that I could take tens of thousands of dollars out due to the equity in my home, thereby resuming attempts to get me to refinance or modify my original loan. These two companies do not seem to have learned anything after being reprimanded for prior misconduct, which is very similar to the actions that I have reported here.
