Product: Mortgage — FHA mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Trying to communicate with the company to fix an issue while managing or servicing your loan
Company: Click n' Close, Inc.
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
Due to a sudden medical condition, I was unable to work, which led me to apply for assistance through Click n Closes loss mitigation program. During that process, I complied with all requirements and made the payments that were requested of me. I believed this brought my account back into good standing.

After completing the loss mitigation steps, Click n Close approved me for a loan modification, which came with a new, agreed-upon monthly payment. I made my first payment on time under the new terms. However, when the next payment came due, I noticed unexpected charges had been added to my balance.

When I contacted the mortgage company, I was informed that these charges were for nine separate property inspections. At no point during the loss mitigation process or during the loan modification discussions was I informed that any inspections had taken place, nor was I told that I would be responsible for fees related to them. These fees were never disclosed in writing or communicated to me verbally. 

I am disputing these charges and requesting a full, itemized breakdown of all fees, including dates and justification for each inspection. I am also requesting documentation that proves I was made aware of these inspections or that they were necessary and compliant with federal servicing laws. 

This situation has caused unnecessary confusion and financial stress after I did everything asked of me to stay in compliance. I am seeking a fair and transparent resolution.

My account with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was never late ! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX XXXX  and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! I demand the late payment reported in to be removed. They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I want to dispute an incorrect name that is appearing on my credit report. As of today, XX/XX/year>, there is a name that is continuing to appear on my credit report that does not belong to me. My name is not spelled in that way and has never been spelled in the way that it appears on my credit report ( the incorrect name is highlighted in yellow on the attachment ). 

Also, I am also disputing the hard inquiry that is continuing to be reported by Equifax and Experian as it should have already been removed as it has been disputed numerous times directly with both Equifax and Experian and documentation was provided that stated that it should be removed. 

i have disputed this numerous times with the credit reporting agencies and the information still is not removed as it should be. I am demanding that the incorrect name and the hard inquiry be removed completely from all areas that it is being reported and that it no longer is able to appear on my credit reports. 

Thank you.

Company: Checkr, Inc
State: CO

Complaint narrative:
> I am disputing how Checkr reported my background information. They listed a dismissed felony trespass charge and a misdemeanor trespass deferred sentence as if they were two separate criminal cases, when in fact both charges came from the same incident, same case number ( XXXX ), and same court process. 

The felony trespass charge was dismissed by plea on XX/XX/year>2025, and the misdemeanor was resolved through a deferred sentence with no conviction upon successful completion of probation. There is no felony conviction.

However, Checkr displayed the felony and misdemeanor as if they were independent events, which gives a false impression of multiple offenses or repeat criminal behavior. This has led to lost job opportunities and reputational harm.

I disputed this with Checkr, requesting they either remove the dismissed felony or accurately reflect that both charges are part of a single case. They refused to make changes and claimed they were simply reporting public record.

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ), background check companies are required to ensure maximum possible accuracy, which includes avoiding misleading representations even if individual facts are technically correct.

I am asking the CFPB to review this case and require Checkr to revise their formatting so that it is not misleading to employers and clearly identifies both charges as part of one incident.
