Complaint narrative:
My loan was being serviced by XXXX, they transferred to Fay Servicing on XX/XX/XXXX. From XXXX, XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX I paid XXXX a total of {$3100.00}. Fay Servicing is saying that I owe them from XX/XX/XXXX, thru XXXX, XXXX for a total of $ {$3500.00}, this balance also includes a Corporate Advance Balance of {$640.00}, I have no idea what that charge entails..I had dealings with Fay Servicing XXXX XXXX XXXX and they failed, or neglected to post XXXX of my payments, even through I sent them proof I had paid. They are telling me they have to go clear back to my previous loan with them, in XXXX. It is my understanding whatever terms I had with my previous lender transferred over to the new lender, including all payments made. They are threatening to foreclose on me and I have been in touch with them since the beginning of XX/XX/XXXX trying to get this corrected. I have read all the reviews about Fay Servicing and their tactics, I only read XXXX of them, all NEGATIVE. They have terrible customer service, people are rude and unwilling to work with you about your problem. I was told they could not find where I had contacted them and submitted my documents. I submitted my documents XXXX different times and they still refused to acknowledge my problem. I made a payment in XXXX and they are still showing it past due, even through it has cleared my bank. My bank is making another payment on XX/XX/XXXX, I do not know what good it will do, as they will probably ignore it as well.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. 

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive enough information to verify debt
Company: Velocity Portfolio Group
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, the buyers of my home didn't close on the house. I was going to pay off the debt with the sale of the house. I had to move back from across XXXX states incurring hardship. I called my debt XXXX and informed them that I had no job and was trying to recover from 3 months. The XXXX XXXX ( this debt ) was one that I contacted. I was paying this debt, but couldn't anymore at the time. I began to make phone calls to keep the creditors updated on my progress in XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. XXXX debt collection agency ( credit control ) advised that the account was moved to XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX. I called the law firm consistently to find the File number so that I could log-in and start making any payments that I could. XXXX XXXX NEVER answered the calls and I left several voicemails from my home number and cell phone number. My home phone was disconnected, but I have the cell phone attempts to call from LAST YEAR and this year ( attached ). Finally in XXXX, a lady answered the phone and connected me to his voice mail. I left another message stating that I needed the File number to begin making some payments. XXXX XXXX NEVER responded to any of my calls. I checked my voicemail messages and nothing. I did not want it to come to a LAWSUIT when I am not working full-time right. I was in a car accident in XXXX and incurred another hardship. I was in physical therapy for months. I tried several times to contact XXXX XXXX and was not ever given the opportunity for any resolution. Now I have to try to defend myself in a court of law. This is an outrage when he knows how many times that I have called him. The website that I was given for contact is XXXX XXXX XXXX The site does not include a personal number for XXXX XXXX or an email address. This is an outrage when he could have simply certified mailed me this information. It is unfair treatment and negligent behavior by that law firm. He had the police knocking on my door numerous times to publicly shame me. My neighbors and people driving by could see the POLICE throwing the lawsuit document at my garage door ( I have the video of it ), all because of this man being a lazy and incompetent debt collection lawyer.
