Complaint narrative:
Account Name Bank of America Account Number XXXX Date Opened XX/XX/XXXX Status Collection account. Account charged off. {$3700.00} written off. {$3700.00} past due as of XX/XX/XXXX. 
Status Updated XX/XX/XXXX XXXX {$3700.00} Four years ago my home was broken into and my laptops and computers were stolen. I called the police and filed a report. Weeks later I noticed items that I didn't recognized appeared on my credit profile and I have been trying to get this debt off since that time and I have researched my consumer laws. For one I never recieved a 1099c from Bank of America saying that this debt was written off and I reached out to them to request that information so I can do my taxes, since this debt is on my report. Also I have looked on my credit report across three bureaus and according to Metro 2 Format the industry standards for reporting accurate, complete and timely information that the data should report according to the specified definitions in order to process credit information correctly is not accurately reporting on my credit profile. I am also in the state of North Carolina which the statue of limitations is 3 years. 

I do not owe Bank Of America- ( account # XXXX ) {$3700.00}.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2021, I sent a letter regarding inaccurate and unknown things on my credit report to this day over 30 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like I'm taken advantage of and being ignored for my disputes. Section 611 ( a ), it is plainly stated that failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report, it has been over 30 days so they should be deleted promptly. I demand these accounts should be deleted immediately or I will file for litigation due to the stress you caused me. My information was also impacted by the Equifax Data breach and may have got into the hands of the wrong person

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Our mortgage is serviced by Nationstar Mortgage Holdings Inc ( XXXX " Mr Cooper '' ). 

I have made four recent payments to Mr Cooper, through their web site. Each of these payments were specifically made as " Additional Principle ''. Each of the four payments were made in alignment with Mr Cooper 's timing request ( i.e. at least 24 hours after an automatic monthly payment ). Our loan have never been late, and in fact we are trying to pay it off early with these additional principle payments. 

Complaint : each of the four payments were misapplied by Mr Cooper. In each instance, the company chose to prepay our next regular monthly mortgage payment ( with its mix of interest and principle ) and then applied the remainder to 'additional principle '. In each case I needed to call Mr Cooper to request that they fix the error. In the most recent case, I needed to call twice because the promised fix to the application of the funds was not done after the first call. Each Mr Cooper customer service rep on the phone apologized for the misapplication of the payment, and said it would not happen again. 

I kept a screen print from the Mc Cooper website of the most recent of the four " additional principle '' payment, with the expectation that it would be misapplied. It was misapplied and I attach that screen print below. 

I believe that Mr Cooper systematically misapplies " additional principle '' payments across its portfolio of serviced loans. If this is true, Mr Cooper is defrauding the mortgage holders who make these payments, by charging interest on the portion of the " additional principle '' payment, which is credited to " interest '' as opposed to " principle ''. 

The four " additional principle '' payments payments made to my mortgage, each of which was misapplied, were : {$5000.00} on XX/XX/2021 {$3300.00} on XX/XX/2021 {$15000.00} on XX/XX/2021 {$2000.00} on XX/XX/2021 2021

This is XXXX XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself, and to inform you that there is no third party involved in the process. My request for the correction and removable of the erroneous information about my inquiries have been diligently neglected by Equifax. Despite sending them the complaint, dated XX/XX/2021, for the said request, I have not received any response up to this date. Besides, the inaccurate pieces of information about my inquiries are still on my reports. Therefore, Equifax has not complied with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC Sections 1681i within the time permitted by law and continued reporting as unverified information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes. Below are the inquiries that are still reporting on my accounts and need to be REMOVED COMPLETELY FROM MY CREDIT REPORT : XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/2021 XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/2021 XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/2021 XXXX Date of inquiry XX/XX/2021
