Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am a victim of identity theft, and I did not make or authorize this charge. I am requesting that those charges be removed.

I understand that failure to investigate these accounts within a period of thirty days will result in non-verification which requires that the above accounts be immediately removed from my credit file.

I also understand that the Fair Credit Reporting Act specifically 15 USC sections 1681i ( d ) and 1681j requires that I receive both written notification of the appropriate corrections and updated credit reports at no charge.

Issue: Managing an account — Fee problem
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Wells Fargo charged a monthly service fee on the account even though I met the requirements of having greater than {$500.00} in direct deposits during the month. 


On the phone I was informed this is because their monthly fee period does not align to calendar months and although the direct deposits had come through on XX/XX/XXXX the " monthly fee period '' ended on XX/XX/XXXX. 

This is apparently because they determine " monthly '' fee periods by number of business days ( she said XXXX business days on the phone ) instead of the actual days in a month. 

This was never explained by the banker who opened the account or the representative I spoke to the month prior who informed me to waive the fee I just needed to have {$500.00} in direct deposits during the month. 

Ultimately, this feels like a deceptive business practice to increase fees because they still refer to everything as the " monthly fee period '' and in an instance like this if the period ends before the last day of the month you only have XXXX direct deposit for that period and thus will not meet the direct deposit requirements.

Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have a loan from this company on my credit report, and I have never gotten a loan from them. I believe it is identity theft. I contacted them by phone 3 times. The first time they gave me a number to a sales company. The second time they hung up on me when I told them this was not my account. The third time they hung up on me when I requested proof of the loan in my name, as I have never gotten a loan. I called a 4th time and couldnt get through to anyone. I disputed this on my credit report, and they verified it is mine. So I am trying to get all the proof I can of this loan so I can dispute again, and file for identity theft. I will be filing a police report today.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — Payment process
Company: NEW YORK COMMUNITY BANCORP INC
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
Flagstar Bank took over my mortgage in XX/XX/XXXX. I enrolled in bi-weekly payments on their XXXX website. Every XXXX weeks, XXXX of the mortgage payment is withdrawal from my bank. The first withdrawal is to be " held in suspense '' until the second withdrawal posts- they would then combine the two payments to make one complete payment.

I've had to call twice a month as they keep mis-applying the bi-monthly payments. Sometimes they put the funds in suspense, sometimes they apply to principal. There is not a clean transaction history for me to follow as they have over XXXX line items for what should only reflect XXXX. This is occurring due to their system as they end up having to do reversals to make it right. This is happening weeks later causing my loan balance to not be affected in a timely manner. 
Furthermore, I was making a selection on their website to make additional " principal only '' payments that again get applied to principal, then the history log shows they reverse it ( causing my balance to go back up ) and then they hold it in suspense. 

All of these errors are due to their system. My concern is my balance isn't being reduced on time when they receive my payment, and I'm being charged for interest on a balance this is incorrect. 
Mortgage payments were made on the following dates : XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX ( bi-weekly =combine XXXX to make XXXX monthly payment ) XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I've made calls the them starting in mid XXXX ( spoke with XXXX  ), end of XXXX ( spoke with XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX spoke with XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX ( spoke with XXXX ) XXXX spoke with XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX spoke XXXX XXXX and again on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Called XXXX spoke with XXXX, XXXX didn't get the person 's name, XXXX spoke with XXXX for XXXX an hour and got transferred to XXXX ( XXXX ). No one seems to be addressing the fact that my funds aren't being applied to the loan balance in the timely fashion. 
I am concerned that they are practicing deceitful banking practices. I fear my balance is not correct, and I am being billed for interest on an incorrect balance.
