Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2021, I tried to make a transaction with the credit card on XXXX ( XXXX website in XXXX ). After entry of my credit card details into the website, the XXXX secure was activated. I was transferred to the website of citi ( with a citi logo and progress bar ) saying the transaction is being verified. However, the transaction was declined. 

This is not the first time this thing happened. On XX/XX/2021, I tried this card with XXXX XXXX for an online transaction, same error. 

I called citibank today trying to ask citi to investigate why this would happen, but only got unhelpful responses - customer service agents did not seem to know what had happened, and they were not listening to their clients at all. I asked to speak with supervisor, and was assigned XXXX, not helpful either. Ref no : XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: DC

Complaint narrative:
I have reviewed my credit report, and there is information that I have discovered which is not mine, which I would like to immediately dispute and have investigated. I believe that I may be a victim of identity theft. The accounts that are on my account that are not mine are : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I do not recognize this account and have never incurred debt with these creditors. I do not know where they came from. Thus, I am requesting that you please verify the validity of these accounts, and remove them once its confirmed that they are not mine. 

I believe that someone else may have a relative that may have forged my name ( or used my personal information ) in order to take out credit without my knowledge, consent and permission. Therefore, please obtain all documents from any of these debts, and even if my signature appears on them, I ask that you review any notes, phone calls, bills of sale, and even compare my handwriting and signature, which I am certain you will see, is not mine. I would be happy to provide you with any handwriting samples you may need ( and my signature does appear on the ID theft affidavit/report that I am attaching ).

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: CARRINGTON MORTGAGE SERVICES, LLC
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
My prior mortgage service, XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) sent me a notice of transfer of servicing rights to Carrington.

Carrington sent me the following email on XX/XX/2021 stating the following in its entirety : " Please note that your loan has not finished the transfer of servicing process, and we will notify you once the process is successfully completed. During this time, you will not be able to set up your online account and our customer service representatives will not be able to provide information related to your account. 

Rest assured, we are working to make the transition as easy as we can. During the next 60 days, Carrington will not assess a late charge on a loan payment received by your prior Servicer on or before its due date. Your account will not be reported as late to the credit bureaus during this 60 day period. 

Once the transfer of servicing process is complete, we will send you an additional email with instructions on how to create and manage your online account. 

Thank you, Carrington Mortgage Services , LLC '' THE PROBLEM IS : My automatic payment to XXXX XXXX should have come out of my account on XXXX. It appears XXXX  XXXX has stopped taking my payment. Carrington has not informed me of how I am to pay or to whom. Today is XX/XX/2021 and my mortgage payment is due to someone, presumably and I don't know how or who to pay. I have a superior credit score and pay all of my bills timely. I do not want to have any issues just because the mortgage services aren't promptly transferring my account.
