Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I went to Cars Now to purchase a vehicle through a loan through them. I ended up getting a suv. They had me get all their warranties that added up to {$1500.00}. So if anything happened to the car it would be covered. They also told me that if I wrecked they would give me a car that was the same value as my car and put what I have already paid towards the new car. I was already paying way more than the car was worth on top of the warranties. I paid my monthly payment on time always until the car kept breaking down. The socks were bad. The tie almost feel off. The rods that connect the wheels almost fell off. The fuel pump went out. The gas gauge did n't work. I put so much money into that car and was furious that the warranty they told me to have in case things happen did n't cover any thing. When the drive shaft went out and I found out how much it would be I told them to come get the car that it 's not safe. That All these inspections should of been done before selling it to me and they lied about the warranty. They would n't come get the car so we dropped it off to them. They contacted me on XXXX messenger which I thought was totally unprofessional. They dad my car on the lot to be sold not even a month later. In fact they sold it for the same price they sold it to me for. I never got a letter stating it was sold or for how much. They ripped me off. I did n't even know they had a collection against me till I checked my credit report. I disputed it to the credit bureau it now says paid but still says charge off. Not to mention the impact it has done to my credit. They said they could help my credit lies. They just find people with little or no credit or bad credit and after y then over with card that break down overcharging with promises that your credit will improve.

Complaint narrative:
I filed a dispute with my bank ( Ally Online ) regarding charges from a XXXX merchant that I requested be refunded. The XXXX merchant did not comply with the refund so I had resorted to disputing the charges with my bank. The date of the charges were on XXXX/XXXX/2016 and I contacted the XXXX merchant on XXXX/XXXX/2016 to tell them to refund me the full amount. I also contacted my bank that day to open a dispute about the charges just in case. The XXXX merchant confirmed that I would see the refund by XXXX/XXXX/2016 credited back to my account but by that day, only a portion of the full amount had been refunded. So I proceeded with pursuing the dispute through my bank and on XXXX/XXXX/2016 I was given a form to give a written account of the dispute. I completed and submitted the form on XXXX/XXXX/2016 and received no confirmation that the form was received by the disputes department ( using e-mail address XXXXXXXXXXXX ) and assumed they would contact me if and when they had or needed more information. Jumping ahead to XXXX/XXXX/2016 ( the date of this complaint ) I called to follow up and learn that they incorrectly closed my dispute because I said I was going to pursue the refund with the XXXX merchant directly. Not only is that false, but its stated right in my written form that this option was already pursued, unfulfilled, and that I expected the bank to pursue this route on my behalf. They did not issue the provisional credit back of the amount that I disputed within 10 business days of me submitting the complaint and they also incorrectly closed my dispute without any notice to me.

When I called XXXX after a year, they said no the late payments stay on for 7 years. 
Is there anything I can do about this?

Complaint narrative:
I started receiving calls from Ad Astra Recovery in the beginning of XX/XX/2016 in regards to an alleged debt owed of {$730.00}. I had no idea what was going on so I sent multiple of dispute letters starting in XX/XX/2016 until now. Astra Recovery simply ignored my request for validation. They were reporting to all three bureaus ( XXXX ) of this debt. In an attempted request for validation notification of this debt, Astra Recovery has failed to send me any proof of validation per law. It 's now been 9 months. In review of my credit report within those 9 months, all Astra Recovery stated was that account was disputed by consumer and met FCRA requirements.

Complaint narrative:
After the past several years of XXXX, starting at the height of the subprime mortgage crisis, my wife and I have been through XXXX with our property in XXXX. Everything from a neighborhood turning into a criminal wasteland because of everyone walking away from their bad investments, to wasting our money on lawyers and loan mitigators, to our home eventually being foreclosed upon. Somehow the foreclosure was not the end of the story. A debt collector, XXXX XXXX XXXX, has been attempting to collect a large sum of money from us. 

In short, we began with XXXX, ended up with XXXX XXXX XXXX, and now XXXX XXXX XXXX ( although according to real estate records our home has been foreclosed upon ). Our problems started in XXXX while I was on XXXX. We walked away in XXXX due to a significant increase in crime in our once respectable condominium community ( and a 60 % drop in value of our property ), and rented a house in a safe neighborhood in XXXX. There was no way I 'd leave my wife and daughter in such a failed and unsafe community that our XXXX neighborhood became. 

This year after returning from another XXXX, we learned our property was foreclosed upon around XXXX, and are still being hounded by the debt. This has severely impacted our credit reports and have further professional implications as well. I have n't had time to tend to this problem until now. We need some help! 

Please let me know if you need further data. I have a tons of documentation that include the Trustees Deed of Sale.

Complaint narrative:
I originally owed money from XXXX XXXX for a personal loan in the amount of {$2600.00} plus a pay day loan of {$250.00} for myself and another payday loan of the same amount under my wife. About a year and half ago I suffered from severe financial difficulties that I no longer can afford to maintain my payments. I employed XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of MA. to handle my repayments. XXXX XXXX accepted the arrangements and as evidence I have copies of cancelled checks to support my claims. Lately, I received E-Mails and letter of collection from Ad Astra for more than {$3000.00} and had refused to accept the cancelled checks as evidences of payments. They stated that the payments made were just for interest only. As a result of the derogatory remarks on my credit history, I ended up being turn down by XXXX XXXX XXXX for housing and in spite of my grant for an automobile grant as a XXXX veteran, I ended up with a higher payment interest rate because of this.

Complaint narrative:
I fell behind on my mortgage when I became ill earlier this year and was admitted to the hospital. Now that I am fully recovered I would like to save my home. I hired an attorney to assist me in applying for assistance from my mortgage servicer, CMG Financial / CMG Mortgage. My attorney recently contacted CMG Mortgage to submit my application and complete financial package and they are refusing to accept my application for assistance. According to my attorney, this is in violation of RESPA Reg X. CMG referred us to their attorney, XXXX XXXX, and said they are handling the mortgage now. My attorney has left several messages with XXXX XXXX over the past ten days and that office has never called back or responded in any way. CMG Mortgage has now also filed a Notice of Default and they are simply avoiding any inquiries from myself or my attorney in regards to trying to resolve my delinquent mortgage and save my home. XXXX XXXX never answers the phone and messages left with them are not returned. I have submitted my financial information directly to my servicer CMG Financial by fax. I have not submitted my financial information to XXXX XXXX because they wo n't pick up the phone.
