Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to request assistance regarding my mortgage with US Bank at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, TX XXXX. I wrote a complaint on XXXX and the response from US Bank was " they did all they could do ''. Despite my request I attempted another option to remain in good standing, I was unable to agree to the terms asked of me with maintaining my mortgage payments. I made a difficult decision to sell my home to avoid foreclosure. I hired a realtor, secured a buyer, had an investor interested, and submitted a short sale offer to US Bank in XX/XX/XXXX. Since XX/XX/XXXX, I waited anticipating an answer regarding the acceptance of the offer. Unfortunately, on XX/XX/XXXX, I was informed that US Bank decided to proceed with foreclosure rather than approve the short sale. 
I am reaching out to request help to get reconsideration of the short sale option, as it would allow me to sell the home in a responsible manner, prevent further financial devastation, and preserve my credit. Foreclosure would not only cause damage to me, but it could also result in greater losses for the bank compared to an approved short sale. 
I urge your review and support of my case and provide an opportunity to finalize the short sale of my home. I am committed to working cooperatively with your office and the necessary parties to facilitate this process as quickly as possible. I sincerely appreciated your time and consideration in hopes we can reach a mutually beneficial resolution. 
Sincerely.

Complaint narrative:
Last year I went to my pediatrician and paid for services. A few months later intermountain health billed me for the exact visit that I had paid for upfront. They have done this SEVERAL TIMES I always call my Dr office and ask if I really didn't pay and they take care of it. For some reason this one bill just would not get resolved. The bill was for {$27.00} and they kept sending it and I kept sending it to my Dr office. And the billing personnel would always say they will call and get it resolved. Got to the point where it's over 120 days over due. Now I have a debt collector invoice and calling me telling me I owed {$83.00} with a {$27.00} " discount '' so I need to pay {$55.00}. 

This is a Sham!!! I paid for this the day I received services!

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX was never late! I have had exceptional payment history 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 was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment to be updated.

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.

EQUIFAX Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Update the late payments from my consumer reports
