Company: United Shore Financial Services, LLC
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
United Wholesale Mortgage ( UWM ) failed to notify and transfer related documentation to Mortgage Assistance when my loan was transferred to XXXX XXXX, a new mortgage servicer. This action is causing a significant delay in mortgage assistance from the new servicer. Documentation that was already provided to United Wholesale Mortgage through loansolutioncenter.com was again never provided to XXXX XXXX. 

I began seeking assistance with my mortgage on XX/XX/year>, with UWM. The process started, but I was told it could take up to 30 days to process. The mortgage assistance application was never transferred when the loan was transferred ( I had no notification from XXXX XXXX ). Please refer to the attached screenshot, as it shows underwriting is reviewing my application with XXXX XXXX for mortgage assistance only after manually submitting all documentation with XXXX XXXX that was initially given to UWM. 

Loan # for UWM : XXXX Loan # for XXXX XXXX : XXXX UWM 's failure to transfer my mortgage to a new servicer appropriately, meaning all documentation, including mortgage assistance, was not filed, which has resulted in further delays in my seeking assistance and potential fees ( such as late payment and other associated fees with XXXX XXXX ). 

Background context about me personally : I was laid off on XX/XX/year>, resulting in an inability to pay XXXX 's mortgage payment as I'm still job searching. I followed up with the mortgage company to communicate that I was laid off and wanted to start mortgage assistance proceedings during the second week of XX/XX/year>.

Complaint narrative:
Covid hit and I ended up switching jobs, so I could no longer afford my credit card bills. I reached out to XXXX, who offered me a year of hardship program and I took it, then paid down quite a bit. The hardship was only for a year, but I later found out they have a 60 % hardship for 60 month program that I was not offered. I could no longer afford the minimum payment, so I closed the account and they charged me a bit over XXXX dollars in fees and other charges. I have now been served papers by Gurstel Law Firm, out of Minnesota, and they are taking me to court if I do not respond within 20 days. I am a XXXX  and do not make much money as I am in the beginning stages of my career. I offered them a lump sum and the supervisor stated he would not accept it nor offer the settlement to the client the firm is representing.

My name is XXXX XXXX, and I am writing to address a pressing matter regarding unauthorized transactions that have been added to my credit report without prior notification or authorization. 
Also reading the itle 18 of the United States Code ( USC ), Section 241, is a federal statute that addresses conspiracies to deprive individuals of their constitutional rights under the color of law. In simpler terms, it makes it a federal offense for two or more persons to conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to them by the Constitution or laws of the United States. 

Here 's a breakdown of the key points of USC Title 18, Section 241 : Upon reviewing my recent credit report, I was alarmed to discover that transactions from [ Specify the Transactions ] have been included without my consent or acknowledgment. This unauthorized activity not only violates consumer protection laws but also has a detrimental impact on my creditworthiness and financial stability. 

Under consumer law, it is imperative to adhere to regulations that safeguard individuals from unwarranted harassment and unjust collection attempts. The inclusion of these unauthorized transactions constitutes a violation of my rights as a consumer, as there was no permissible purpose or engagement established for such actions. 

Furthermore, I must emphasize the adverse effects this unauthorized reporting has had on my credit approval process. The presence of these inaccuracies, specifically the charged-off accounts from [ XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX undermines my ability to obtain fair credit terms and opportunities. 

In light of these circumstances, I kindly request the following actions : Immediate removal of the unauthorized transactions associated with my account from all credit reporting agencies. 
Cease all collection attempts and communication regarding the disputed transactions. 
Provide written confirmation of the removal of said transactions and cessation of collection efforts.

Company: Marlette Funding, LLC
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX I started looking and found a loan that sounded decent to help build credit. On XX/XX/XXXX I was approve for the loan. It being a {$10000.00} loan with simple interest at 24.99 % for 60 months. I was told when getting the loan I would not be changed interest on the fees that were taken out of the loan amount. The amount was {$890.00} taken out of the {$10000.00}. The loan was financed for {$9100.00} at 29.82 % interest for 60 months. Interest being {$8500.00} throughtout the 60 months with a pay off of {$17000.00}. Come to find out I am being charged interest on the full {$10000.00} not the finance amount of {$9100.00}. This was and says everywhere including on their website that they offer simple interest loans. I was later informed the my loan is a DAILY Simple Interest Loan. That none of which is stated in my paperwork. The company at this point at is completely refusing to give me information so I can accurately pay off my loan. Due to the interest and what my paperwork says and not being able to effectively get basic information from the company and says they don't have access too it. It is now XX/XX/XXXX I am making on time payments of XXXX and have also paid extra with my principal hardly going down and the company will NOT provide any answers. They can't even tell me monthly how much of my payment is being split between interest and principal till a week AFTER I make my payment. To date I owe {$9500.00} on principal all though the finance amount was {$9100.00} and to date the pay off amount is {$9600.00}. This don't seem right as my vehicle loan is simple interest as well and gives me ALL the information I need and request.
