Product: Mortgage — Other type of mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — 
Company: Real Estate Equity Exchange, Inc. d/b/a Unison
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
on XX/XX/2022 I applied for home equity sharing with Unison. I provided all the documents requested. for more than 3 weeks I waited for the next step which was getting the appraisal done. On XX/XX/2022 I was informed by the file processor that the title was clear and I can get my own appraisal as the company facing some delays. On XX/XX/2022 I provided the appraisal to the company after paying {$450.00} so the application can move forward. On XX/XX/2022 the company rep informed me that the analyst feels the appraisal over estimated the house and the company wants to do its own appraisal. After a discussion with a supervisor to understand why would we need a 2nd appraisal, the company went ahead and ordered their own appraisal this time. When their own appraisal came back with almost same value like the one I did, the rep emailed me on XX/XX/2022 to advise that their analysts still feel the value was high and they couldn't move forward with the application. This was a misleading experience that wasted time and money for me. This company should be held accountable for the way they conduct business.

Issue: Managing an account — Problem using a debit or ATM card
Company: CITIZENS FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I was unsure if I was possibly being scammed using XXXX through XXXX XXXX so I contacted my bank, explained what was going on, after I was done explaining, it was the customer service rep that sent the money {$220.00} to the person who I later found out, WAS INDEED scamming me. I assumed the bank ( or XXXX ) would know their policy, whether what I was told, was a scam or not, so when they continued with the transaction, I figured I was safe. I don't feel like this was your typical " account holder authorization '' error who was scammed, but the customer service rep who was careless and clearly did not know about their own policies, ( scam or legitimate ). Later finding out from the Internet it was a recent scam going around, I filed a claim ( dispute ) with my bank to reverse the charges, but was denied. 
I think they should be held liable.

Complaint narrative:
A few weeks ago I sent letters to all 3 credit bureaus regarding some items on my credit report which I know are not accurate which is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA and you must abide by the law. Everything I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. Ive received emails and letters saying Im using a 3rd party which is incorrect because I am the one sending my letters out and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair company or 3rd party. The CRAs are in violation of my rights due to not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I request these accounts to be deleted from my credit asap or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I want to purchase a house soon and this holding me back.

I made payments in the amount of {$8100.00} to be applied towards my principle. Only {$2500.00} of the money I paid to SPS has been applied to my account. I have tried to get this fixed with Sps for over 90 days. The last response they said to me was do what I needed to do because they werent fixing it. Sps has tons of complaints but yet they are still allowed to be in business. I tried to resolve this with ombudsman and still 90 days later where is my {$8100.00} that I paid. This needs to be correctly Immediately but SPS just keeps sending me acknowledgment letters in the mail. Please help I would like my payments made of {$8100.00} to reflect towards my principal.

State: GA

Complaint narrative:
The only address that should be listed on my credit report is the current address, which is the address presented on my driver 's license. According to consumer laws 15 U.S.C 1681 listed below it is not fair, nor does it give me any privacy to list and display addresses where I do not reside to be included on my credit report. Especially if I didn't consent to them being listed per any written instructions. These addresses provide incorrect information to supposed creditors, and can open the gates of fraudulent activity via mail when sent to a residence I no longer reside. In most cases the occupant of that address will open that mail, and can use that particular information fraudulently to open or reopen accounts, etc. 

15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 602 A - says I have the right to privacy.

15 U.S.C. 1681 A ( 4 ) - states consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. 

15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 - Consumer reporting agencies may not furnish account information without my written instructions.
