Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: SFMC L.P.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Description of the Issue : On Saturday, XX/XX/year>, I was contacted by Service First Mortgage on a weekend regarding my mortgage payment, even though my account was within the grace period and in good standing. The call was made outside of normal business hours, which I find to be an unacceptable practice. 

I have previously requested that the company cease and desist from contacting me outside of regular business hours, especially on weekends, if my account is current or within its grace period. Despite this request, the company continues to make unsolicited and harassing phone calls. 

Actions Taken : Date of Contact ( Weekend Call ) : XX/XX/year> Amount Discussed : {$1400.00} Context : I was informed about a mortgage payment due before my grace period expired. The call was unnecessary and caused undue stress. 
Cease-and-Desist Request : Date of Request : XX/XX/year> Method : [ e.g., Sent a written request, emailed, or communicated via phone ] Content : Requested the company to refrain from contacting me outside of normal business hours, particularly when my account is in good standing or within the grace period. 
Complaint Filed : Date : [ Insert date of the CFPB complaint filing, e.g., XX/XX/year> ] Details : Filed a formal complaint with the CFPB about these harassing practices. 
Despite these steps, the company has continued to engage in this behavior, demonstrating disregard for my requests and consumer protection laws. I believe this constitutes harassment, and I am seeking intervention to ensure that these inappropriate practices cease. 

Resolution Sought : I request that [ name of the company ] immediately : Stop contacting me outside of regular business hours, especially on weekends. 
Ensure that no calls or communications are made if my account is in good standing or within the grace period. 
Provide a formal acknowledgment of my requests and a written guarantee that these actions will stop.

Complaint narrative:
Summary of My Complaint : I am filing this complaint regarding inaccurate and improperly handled information related to an account reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX on my Experian credit report XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  ). The reported information includes inaccuracies about the deficiency balance following the repossession and sale of a vehicle XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

Despite filing disputes, Experian failed to conduct a reasonable investigation and improperly verified inaccurate information from XXXX XXXX XXXX. This mirrors the CFPBs lawsuit findings against Experian for sham investigations and reinsertion of inaccurate data, violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ).

Key Issues : 1. Experian conducted a sham investigation by uncritically accepting XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX unreliable responses. 
2. Experian failed to ensure maximum possible accuracy of the reported information ( FCRA 1681e ( b ) ).

3. If Experian reinserted deleted tradelines from XXXX XXXX XXXX without notifying me, it further violates FCRA 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ). 
4. XXXX XXXX XXXX violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) by reporting inaccurate balances and failing to inform Experian of disputed information. 

These actions have caused financial harm and damage to my creditworthiness. I demand Experian and XXXX XXXX XXXX correct or remove the inaccuracies immediately and provide a full explanation of their investigation process.

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute for incorrect information on my credit report. I received an email from the credit bureau stating that they are assuming the disputes are coming from a 3rd party. They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out. I sent personal information to verify my identity through mail, just for them to not thoroughly investigate.
