Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, IL XXXX Shellpoint Mortgage XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX Re : Request to Review Basis for Denial of Loan Modification Account Number : # XXXX Subject Property : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX IL XXXX Owner : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX Dear CFPB : I am writing to you because I am trying to seek a loan modification, and I believe that the loan servicer ( Shellpoint ), is refusing to follow the guidelines pursuant to XXXX. I am asking the CFPB to please conduct a review of my account to determine if my suspicions are correct. 
I have owned the subject property since XXXX. 

Although Shellpoint is my loan servicer, I am unaware of the present lender, which is allegedly a governmental organization. I have tried to obtain a loan modification through their loss mitigation program. I have not been advised of the status of my loan modification/RMA packet aside from a denial based on ( 1 ) lack of documents ; BUT ; ( 2 ) I was informed in writing and telephonically that my application was complete. ) This can not be reconciled. 

Therefore, because Shellpoint has been the designated loan servicer, I am asking that you look into the following issues : Did the servicer give me a fair opportunity to be evaluated under XXXX ( and all relevant laws ), because my application was denied for lack of documents despite Shellpoint previously acknowledging that my loan modification/RMA packet ( packet ) was complete? 

There was a sale that took place on XXXX XXXX, is Shellpoint intentionally declining to review my subsequent packet? 

For what reason ( s ) am I ineligible for co-signer release? And, if I am not truly eligible, can you help me understand the reasons why I would be deemed ineligible? 

In order to determine if I am eligibleand because I would like to receive the documents requested per a qualified written request ( QWR ) I had sent to Shellpoint. The timeline to provide me documentation per the QWR has passed. Can you assist me in requesting the loan servicer to provide me ALL of the requested documents I am legally entitle to? 

At present, there is no sale date on my subject property. From my review of the laws under XXXX, I understand that your office has the authority to investigate these types of matters and I am requesting the CFPB to assist me. 

Thank you, and if you have any questions other concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at the address set forth above. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Dear Sir/Madam, I have Fraudulent Hard Inquiries on my credit report. Someone applied to Financial Organizations in order to get some goods or benefits or funds, I didnt apply for it. I enclosed in this letter an FTC report for all mentioned fraudulent inquiries and the copy of my ID. Here is the list of Fraudulent Hard Inquiries : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX It is my sworn statement that, I declare under penalty of perjury ( under the laws of the United States, if executed outside of the United States ) that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge. Further, I certify that I am qualified and authorized to file this dispute. I also understand that knowing and a willful misstatement of omissions of material facts constitutes a federal criminal violation punishable under 18 U.S.C. 1001. Additionally, these misstatements are punishable as perjury under 18 U.S.C. 1621. 
the INQUIRIES that are the result of the same type fraudulent activities. I must be noted that I did not apply for credit accounts with the below listed companies and creditors, some of these are the result of attempts to open accounts, but the companies did not approve these accounts. Therefore, these inquiries must be deleted from within my credit file. You can not delete the fraudulently opened accounts without also deleting the fraudulent inquiries. 


Inquiries that are made by someone else without my authorization is not a factual record of access to my credit file, it is a factual record of fraudulent activity, and it must be addressed as such. The reason that these inquiries are being disputed is because they were not made by me, and when I report this to you, it is your responsibility to investigate my claims, and when you can not prove that these inquiries were made by me, they must be removed from my credit file. It is not my responsibility to go directly to each creditor, the obligation lies at your feet because you are reporting inaccurate information within my credit report, and this violates the FCRA. 

Please remove these inquires immediately.

Re : XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX # XXXX Violated XXXX ( Regulation F ) FDCPA Debt Collection Rule This is not the time to Reinvestigate or Update XX/XX/XXXX your company received my Validation notice. I challenged the validity of both accounts mentioned that's currently being reported on consumer credit report. 

XXXX that time, I noticed as a result of challenging both accounts the completion of XXXX investigation, they deleted the accounts based on the lack of ability to properly verify all reported information being accurate. The deleted accounts are listed below ; # XXXX ( open account ) XX/XX/XXXX # XXXX ( Closed account ) XX/XX/XXXX I attached the law below according to the FDCPA ; XXXX XXXX XXXX Notice for validation of debts. 
( d ) Dispute ; ( 2 ) Response to disputes ; Upon receipt of a dispute submitted by the consumer in writing within the validation period, a debt collector must cease collection of the debt and, any portion of debt until the debt collector ; ( i ) Sends a copy either of verification of the debt or of a judgment to the consumer in writing. 

They didnt do that. 


XXXX XXXX had violated the FDCPA Rule 12 CFR 1006.38 ( d ) ( 2 ) ( i ) requirements by failing to send me the required Validation information and contents. 

It is my understanding the FDCPA states the XXXX and, XXXX of information must report the same information to all credit reporting agencies. 

XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX was in receipt of my default notice based on the lack of ability to properly Validate all reported information being accurate during the required validation period. 

As the accounts remained invalidated, they continued to violated the FDCPA requirements 12 CFR 1006.38 ( d ) ( 2 ) ( Regulations F ) with the continuation of their reporting. 

In addition to the listed violation ; YOU violated the FDCPA Rule 1006.18 ( C ) ( 2 ) with your deceptive reporting by failing to communicate with the CRAs that YOU received my dispute notice challenging the validity of the reported accounts. I attached the law below ; 1006.18 False, deceptive, ( c ) False, deceptive, or misleading collection means. A debt collector must not : ( 2 ) Communicate the failure to communicate that a disputed debt is disputed YOUR reporting has cause damaged to my credit score, credit worthiness, credit capacity, defamation of character and general mood of living and ; YOU have caused me Consumer Harm and, the duration of time over which the violations occurred.

However, I disputed the accounts with Equifax Reporting Agency XXXX XXXX I received copies of a bill, with a mailing date XX/XX/XXXX. I will include the dated envelope and notice with my complaint. 

This clearly violates FDCPA RULE I demand both accounts deleted immediately from my consumer credit file with the CRAs you have continued to report them to.
