Complaint narrative:
I am concerned about the validity and accuracy of your recent investigation of these accounts that are reporting on my credit report. Last month I requested an investigation because I felt the item was not being reported legally. Couple of days ago I received a letter stating that you have ceased investigation of my credit reports because, in your opinion, you believe that I have used a third party credit repair agency. Not only do I believe this to be a stall tactic on your part to grant you an additional 30 days to comply with my original request, but I believe it to be a blatant violation of the FCRA.

I have attached a copy of my government issued ID as well as mail showing proof of address. So, there shouldnt be any confusion or stall tactics on your end. I have maintained a careful record of my communications with you for the purpose of filing a complaint with the FTC should you continue in your non-compliance.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute fraudulent information on my credit report pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 and to request that this information be blocked immediately. Enclosed is a copy of my Police Report and FTC Identity Theft Report ( FTC Report Number : XXXX ) to support my identity theft claim. 
Under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, once a consumer submits an identity theft report, credit reporting agencies are required to block any information identified as resulting from identity theft within XXXX ( XXXX ) business days. 
The following information on my credit report is the result of identity theft and should be blocked : Fraudulent Accounts to Be Removed XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX As required by law, this fraudulent information should be blocked for at least XXXX year, after which I may request an extension of the block. During this time, you may not report this information on my credit file or indicate that my report contains any fraudulent data. 
I have contacted the Experian, on several occasions to report these fraudulent accounts, yet I have not received any resolution. This situation is seriously affecting my ability to qualify for a new home for my children. These same accounts were deleted and not verified by other credit bureaus, which raises serious questions about their legitimacy. 
I have also requested verification and contract documentation from the companies reporting these accounts, and more than 60 days have passed without any response. Therefore, I am requesting immediate action. 
Enclosed is my FTC Identity Theft Report. I respectfully request that you make a fair and just decision regarding my situation. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Trouble during payment process — Payment process
Company: Acrisure Mortgage Partners, LLC
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I bought a house last year and took out a mortgage loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX for an amount of {$420000.00}. The interest rate was 7.125 % and it was a conventional loan for 30 year payable monthly. The monthly payment comes to {$2800.00}. I closed on XX/XX/year> and started making my monthly payments on time every month. I was also making an extra payment of {$1000.00} each month toward principal only. See the payment history file attached. It shows what I have paid and how they mis-applied everything. First they mis-apply, when I ask why they did that, then they mis-apply again. 

After making the the payment on XX/XX/XXXX, the loan balance should be {$410000.00}. Anyone with access to a mortgage calculator will agree with this number. But on their end, they show a balance of {$420000.00}. See the XX/XX/XXXX statement attached. 

There is a huge difference of {$4700.00}. Just toward principal I paid more than {$7000.00}. In each monthly payment, there is also a portion I am paying toward principal. 

When I brought this to their notice, they said they will fix it. After a month they said they fixed it after misapplying all my payments but now the new balance shows {$410000.00}. There is still a difference of {$90.00}. I have attached a screenshot of their website showing the balance after the XX/XX/XXXX payment.
