Issue: Trouble during payment process — Escrow, taxes, or insurance
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Our yearly homeowner insurance renewal was due on XX/XX/year>. Like many other homeowners, our mortgage provider manages our home insurance payments through an escrow account. Our mortgage provider paid the insurance company via a bulk check issued on XX/XX/year> and mailed on XX/XX/year>. These checks take 7 to 10 business days to arrive. The insurance company received payment on XX/XX/year>, one day late, and canceled the policy due to late payment. 

We received a Lapse Notice letter on XX/XX/year>, stating that our policy had lapsed and that we were without homeowner 's insurance coverage. We contacted the mortgage provider and the insurance company and they both did not offer a solution other than getting a new insurance policy with another carrier as they are no longer accepting new customers in CA. 

The payment delay by the mortgage provider made us lose our homeowner insurance that we had for the last 8 years with no option to reinstate it at the same cost. Our insurance was around $ XXXX. New quotes that we received today, XX/XX/year> by other carriers with the same coverage we had will cost us over $ XXXX ( more than double ).

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate information being reported on my credit report regarding a charge-off. The account in question is listed as follows : -Creditor Name : XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX -Date of Charge-off : XX/XX/year> It has come to my attention that the charge-off is being reported month after month on my payment history, which is incorrect. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), negative information such as a charge-off should only be reported once, corresponding to the date it was charged off. 

The FCRA requires that credit reporting agencies ensure the accuracy of the information they report ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ). Repeatedly reporting the charge-off each month results in a misleading and inaccurate credit report, which has significantly harmed my credit score. Additionally, the statute of limitations for reporting a charge-off is seven years from the date of the first delinquency that led to the charge-off ( 15 U.S.C 1681c ( a ) ( 4 ) ). Continuously reporting this charge-off as a new event each month does not reset the statute of limitations and is improper. 

I request that you promptly investigate this account and correct the inaccurate information by removing the repeated entries of the charge-off from my payment history. Please update my credit report accordingly and provide me with a confirmation of these corrections. 


Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
I have been attempting to work with this credit reporting agency since XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX I reached out several times to request that corrections be made to my credit profile. They continue to report the WRONG name, addresses, accounts, and inquiries. I am a victim of identity theft. There were people who had the same name as me who impersonated me and opened accounts in my name using my information. After bringing this to the agency 's attention, they continue to report it. I have specifically requested that my NAME be reported as XXXX XXXX XXXX as this is the exact way that I use it any time I apply for anything. This agency 's failure to do so allowed the thieves to use my information. This agency is in FULL violation of FCRA laws 15 USC 1681i, 15 USC 1681s-2, 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ), 15 USC 1681e ( b ), and 15 USC 1681b . They have allowed multiple entities to access my information without having a permissible purpose or my authorization.

Company: DISCOVER BANK
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
This is an update to my existing complaint against Discover Bank, case number XXXX, regarding an unjustified hard inquiry, denial of credit access, and now an inaccurate adverse action notice. 

As detailed in my original complaint, Discover conducted a hard inquiry on my credit report six weeks after I abandoned my application for a secured credit card due to their system 's inability to process it. They subsequently denied my application based on outdated information, including my acquisition of credit elsewhere, which I was forced to pursue because of Discover 's failure to process my application in a timely manner. 

I have since received a response from Discover ( attached ) in which they refuse to remove the hard inquiry and essentially blame me for the delay. However, I have discovered a critical error that further demonstrates Discover 's negligence and potential violations of consumer protection laws. 

Inaccurate Adverse Action Notice : The adverse action letter provided by Discover is for the Discover It Chrome card, which is not the secured credit card I applied for. This error reveals a significant flaw in Discover 's handling of my application and credit information. 

This inaccuracy raises serious concerns : FCRA Violation : Providing an adverse action notice with incorrect information could violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which requires accurate and specific reasons for credit denial. 
Negligence and Lack of Due Diligence : This error highlights Discover 's negligence and lack of attention to detail, further supporting my claim that they are not adhering to responsible credit reporting and lending practices. 
Misrepresentation and Deception : Issuing an inaccurate adverse action notice misrepresents the true nature of the credit decision and could be considered deceptive under consumer protection laws.
