Product: Debt collection — Payday loan debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: Torriere Holdings INC
State: MO

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX : Received first ( and only ) written notice from Spire Recovery Solutions for a debt. The document stated XXXX XXXX now owns a debt that XXXX originally owned. The amount was {$2000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. 

My spouse called the phone number for Spire Recovery Solutions ( Reference number is XXXX ). This company asked my spouse for my personal information. He did not supply any information, but the company provided an address, a state, a bank institution, and a false employer associated with the name on the debt. Some of the information was accurate but outdated. 

I called the number for XXXX. I spoke with a woman name XXXX. They asked for the reference number XXXX. They told me this account number was associated with my name, then she asked me for the last four digits of my social security number. I gave her this information. She said I needed to call the local police department and fax or email them the police report so their fraud department could correspond with my local police department. 

I called my local law enforcement agency. They told me the debt collection agency was a fraud, and so was XXXX. I was told no case number would be filed for the case because I needed to contact the FTC to file a report.

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
My original home loan was with Bank Of America. When the crash of XXXX happened I could no long afford my house payment and went into default. I had a first and second loan on the property. In XXXX when I was working again I did a loan modification with Bank Of America. I assumed it included the second. I've been paying on the property ever since as it is my primary residence. In XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  contacted me threatening foreclosure because of the unpaid second load they obviously purchased from B of A. They could never furnish me a signed contract proving the balance I owe. And It is nearly double the initial amount. I dont have the money to fight this so I made an agreement to pay. I gave them {$2400.00} cash and agreed to payments of {$350.00} a month. In XXXX when XXXX hit I once again lost my job and income. I was able to make the house payments yet got a little behind on the XXXX payments. Over the years I have tried to make the payments every month. I normally pay {$500.00}. Today I tried to log into the system to make a payment. I was locked out and told to call. I did. I was informed that all of my payments have been going towards the late fees and not the principal. And my property is being placed in foreclosure status again. I was told to submit a loss mitigation form and they will try to help. Which I did. Currently I can not access my account to see payments or balances. This place is operating illegally in my opinion. They cant even provide me with a signed statement proving I own them money. Nor can they explain why the balance is so high. I can not afford an attorney as I am barely surviving now. I need help.
