Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Loan
Issue: Struggling to pay your loan — Lender trying to repossess or disable the vehicle
Company: World Omni Financial Corp.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir or Madam, Please help with the following matter : On XXXX XXXX XXXX around XXXX our vehicle was repossessed from our yard. When I contacted XXXX, they informed me that I was XXXX  days past due on my loan. When I informed them that I had in fact made every payment, XXXX insisted that no payments were made. I informed them that I had made the payments through the their website and that my bank statements had " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX '' in the memo line and I gave them the dates from our statements which were XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. All payments were XXXX and cleared our bank as a debit charge. They continued to insist that the payments were not made or received so I asked for a fax number to send in proof of payment. I sent the bank statements into XXXX different fax numbers and called multiple times speaking with a supervisor many of those times. The reps continued to say that they never received any faxes from me and that they would be auctioning off my car XXXX XXXX, XXXX if I did n't refinance through a different bank. I have made multiple attempts via fax and email to prove that my payments were not only made, but made on time. Since I have made every payment on my loan I do n't see why I have to refinance or pay any of the repossession fees. XXXX also failed to contact me to let me know they were not receiving my payments. My email address, phone numbers and place of employment have not changed. The reps I talked to said they called, emailed and mailed multiple notices and never received a response. I have checked my email, my phone records and I also never received anything from the mail. Because of the lack of communication I was unable to rectify the situation before the repossession of my only transportation. The reps at XXXX have repeatedly denied me the opportunity to continue my loan payments and have adversely impacted my credit bureau reports which may prevent me from obtaining a new car or home loan.

Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage — 
Company: Ditech Financial LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Lender had orchestrated an outcome I lost the property title as a collateral for the mortgage, but kept the obligation. If not required by lender it would not have happened. I would not grant title to anyone if not relieved from the Promissory Note. The " sale '' simply would not proceed. I expected and trusted this lender to be a safe process same as sale when escrow holds docs and swaps them at the right time. Perhaps lender wanted to forfeit all interest-only paid by now forcing refinance instead of assumption or its been other form of long term strategy. Lender kept dragging it for 3+ years  bouncing between departments without resolution. This would not go that far if in the beginning of XXXX they would simply approve modification or allow for short sale like with everyone else in this country. We have applied for help in the right order. The outcome is lender refused to transfer balances to the new owner and breached the assumability of the loan document. It bears some commonality for modification scam when I applied for it and more than a year later been directed to assumption package instead, and it required signing over the title to someone else. 

Main issue : Why lender encouraged us to perform an assumption instead of completing modification/short sale? 

Why lender did demand transfer of property title in order to file assumption package? 

Main damage : I cant sale now to pay off balances, because I am no longer on the title.

Company: BBVA FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
Dear XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX recently declined from over XXXX to less than XXXX because a credit card company ( BBVA Compass ) has been posting a delinquent account on my credit report. I have not received any written notification of the debt or my right to be able to dispute this debt. I have not received a single phone call or letter from this company. I called them multiple times in the month of XXXX to try and settle this alleged debt by paying off the amount they were requesting if they would remove their negative account from my credit report. 

They have still not sent me a written notification of the debt despite my email and phone calls on XXXX XXXX, XXXX in which I gave them my most recent address. 
The person I spoke with was collection agent XXXX XXXX ( XXXXXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXXXXX, phone number XXXX XXXX. I have called this number back several times over the last few days in an attempt to settle this alleged debt and have the negative information removed from my credit report. However, after being on hold for over an hour, I have not been able to speak with anyone. 

I am a physician with a very busy schedule and a high patient volume. I really can not afford to spend so much time trying to settle a debt for which I have received no notification to date. I believe that in order to protect my rights as a consumer, an intervention from the CFPB is urgently needed. 

Thank you, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX off on writing full name as per guidelines above )
