Consumer complaint received 2025-10-02 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — Other type of mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — Application denials
Company: PLAZA HOME MORTGAGE, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> at XXXX XXXX, a corrected mortgage application ( 1003 ) and letter of explanation were uploaded into Plaza Home Mortgages system for Loan # XXXX. These documents clarified that the subject property was the borrowers only primary residence and that the departing property would be retained as an investment property. 

At XXXX XXXX, Plazas account XXXX confirmed to me that the documentation had been submitted to underwriting and was visible in the system. Despite this, Plaza never cleared the occupancy condition. Their automated system continued to show two primary residences, which falsely inflated the debt-to-income ratio ( DTI ) to 91.35 %. This inflated XXXX  was then used as the reason for denial. 

Other key issues : Underwriter misconduct : The assigned underwriter stated that having two primary homes is fine and claimed he had been approving such cases for 20 years. This is factually incorrect and constitutes an endorsement of mortgage fraud. I requested reassignment of the underwriter, but Plaza never honored this request. 

Conditions left open : I submitted an executed lease and rental deposit evidence for the departing property, as well as a Tax Preparer 's letter verifying the borrowers actual business expense ratio. Plaza left these conditions marked as open.

Misrepresentation of policy : Plaza staff told me that per Plaza policy, I could not continue working as a processor because I was originally also listed as a Realtor. I requested the written policy, but none was provided. Plazas own published Business Policies and Broker Guide contain no such prohibition. 

Retaliation : After I raised these issues, Plaza canceled my processor login credentials, blocking access to the loan file. This prevented me from performing my disclosed and contracted role as third-party processor. 

Good-faith recusal ignored : Although not required, I executed a contract addendum formally recusing myself as the Realtor and waiving the commission. Despite this, Plaza continued to invent new excuses to exclude me. 

Impact : The borrowers loan was denied on false grounds, despite all corrections and supporting documentation being submitted on time. My processor access was revoked without valid cause, harming both me and the borrower.

M & T Bank continues to freeze and withhold my business funds without explanation. Since XX/XX/year>, the bank has blocked all access to my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  account, including a recurring ACH deposit from XXXX that has been coming into this account for more than three years.

Complaint narrative:
Indigo XXXX is reporting that I am over my credit limit and that I owe over {$1000.00}. This is incorrect because I have never once used this card. I never authorized charges, purchases, or withdrawals, and the balance being reported is completely inaccurate. 

Despite not using the card, the company has added charges and is attempting to hold me responsible. This appears to be either a case of billing error, improper account handling, or possible identity theft. Their actions are harming me financially and could damage my credit profile.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Complaint narrative:
After reviewing my consumer report, I noticed that there was still late payment on my consumer report which have never been late because the creditor failed to provide any proof or evidence so this needs to be corrected immediately to paid as agreed and never late. This account is related to a transaction and experience that falls under the EXCLUSION section of the FCRA 's definitions, rules of construction section. It was also reported without my written consent and therefore is a result of identity theft ( as defined by the Federal Trade Commission ), and the account SHALL be Corrected. This account is not related to any transaction authorized by me, the consumer as I did not give written instructions to your agency to report this, which is a violation of the permissible purpose section of the FCRA, which holds your agency name liable for damages of at least {$1000.00} per the civil liability section for willful non-compliance. Please CORRECT this item from my consumer report! According to15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports The Law clearly states : ( a ) In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. I clearly did not give your agency written authorization or written instructions to report this information. Your agency is conspiring with these creditors against me in committing aggravated identity theft and I have sustained defamation of my character, just to name a couple damages should this matter escalate to court. 15 U.S. Code 1681e - Compliance procedures- ( b ) Accuracy of report Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of inaccurate or unverifiable information ( A ) In general if, after any reinvestigation under paragraph ( 1 ) of any information disputed by a consumer, an item of information is found to be inaccurate or incomplete or can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency shall -- i ) promptly delete that item of information from the file of the consumer, or modify that item of information, as appropriate, based on the results of the reinvestigation ; and ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Personal information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the inaccurate personal information currently appearing on my credit file. Specifically, I have never legally gone by the listed aliases, nor do I currently or previously reside at the reported addresses.

The inclusion of these erroneous names and addresses violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires credit reporting agencies to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. This misinformation creates a significant risk of identity confusion and negatively impacts my ability to obtain credit under fair and accurate conditions.

The presence of these inaccurate entries also raises concerns regarding data mishandling, particularly in the wake of recent national data breaches. Despite prior attempts to correct this information, the inaccurate aliases and addresses remain on my file, even though they have no connection to me.

I am requesting immediate removal of these erroneous aliases and addresses. If the credit reporting agency believes this information is valid, I demand sufficient legal documentation directly linking me to these names and addresses. Otherwise, they must be deleted from my credit report without delay.

Finally, I request written confirmation once the correction has been made, along with an updated copy of my credit report reflecting the accurate information.
