Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have sent several letters via certified mail to XXXX XXXX, Transunion, XXXX  and XXXX  regarding a Car Repossession listed on my credit report. I have disputed the account for unfair and inaccurate reporting numerous times to no avail. I have also asked for the method of validation of these inaccuracies from all three credit bureaus only to be sent their computer generated verified as accurate letter from TransUnion, XXXX  and XXXX. The account still to date has inconsistencies reporting to all three major credit bureaus. For instance, on TransUnion the last pay listed as XX/XX/XXXX. Same account via XXXX  last pay listed as XX/XX/XXXX. And XXXX  last payment date is unknown. The account was previously listed as closed with no known updates since XXXX of XXXX. That is until XXXX  updated payment history on XX/XX/XXXX and TransUnion on XX/XX/XXXX with 20+ late payments as well as XXXX  dating back to original close date. I also noticed that each month from XX/XX/XXXX until now XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX has been continuously updating the balance each month and accruing interest on said closed account. According to my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX the balance was {$13000.00} as of today XX/XX/XXXX the balance is {$15000.00}. Thats a difference of {$2400.00} in interest on a closed account in repossessed status. I find this to be not only illegal but unethical on XXXX XXXX  behalf. I also find that all three bureaus are blatantly refusing to uphold the laws set forth by the FCRA for continuing reporting this false information. From my understanding XXXX XXXX is already involved in lawsuits and litigations by several other previous clients for these exact practices amongst other unfair account handlings. I am requesting that XXXX XXXX, Transunion, XXXX  and XXXX  remove this erroneous information from my credit report and that it also not be reinserted onto any of my credit reportings at a later date.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2020 I authorized XXXXXXXX XXXX, custodian of my Health Savings Account, to pull {$3000.00} from checking account at Wells Fargo Bank. On the XXXX two micro pulls were conducted successfully to ensure that correct routing and account numbers provided. These two micro pulls were immediately refunded back to my checking account The next day, XX/XX/2020 {$3000.00} was pulled from my checking account with ACH transaction # XXXX and applied to my HSA account. On XX/XX/2020 I received an Email from XXXX XXXX stating. 

" Please be advised that your deposit amount of {$3000.00} made to your Health Savings Account on XX/XX/2020 has been debited from your account. The funds were debited, as funding to cover this deposit was not received from the bank on which the check was drawn. '' I immediately called Wells Fargo. On XXXX they provided me with the ACH transaction number which I then provided to XXXX shortly thereafter. My bank statement for that time period clearly shows the {$3000.00} dollars being pulled from my checking account. 

For months I went back and forth with XXXX about where the $ $ ended up. Finally on XX/XX/2020 I received the following email from XXXX. 

" Our Finance Team has confirmed that the transaction in the amount of {$3000.00} was manually rejected due to NO external bank account at the time of the transaction. From the research, it was determined that the transaction belonged to you. '' From that point until now I have tried to get XXXX and Wells Fargo to work together to find the funds but both refuse to accept responsibility to find the money. I am finally giving up on them and submitting this complaint hoping that the CFPB can force the two banks to talk to each and find my {$3000.00}. 

I have enclosed copies of the various referent letters, a sanitized copy of my bank statement showing the {$3000.00} being pulled, and my log of all the phone calls etc that I have record of. ( I did lose one months log to my puppy voracious appetite ). If further information is needed I will do my best to provide it.

Company: Common Wealth Mortgage Services
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
We started our refinance process the middle of XXXX. We were told we would close by the middle of XXXX. Then we were told we would close by the end of XXXX. We were working with InterCAP lending. The agents assistant, XXXX, told us that our payoff was good through the first week of XXXX and we would be able to sign papers to close the end of XXXX. The end of XXXX rolled around and the papers had not gotten done yet. I had asked her more than once if we needed to make the loan payments and she told us not to worry about it because we would be signing the end of the month and the payoff statement date was good through the first week of XXXX. So after the first week of XXXX rolled around we made the house payment because we hadnt signed papers, but the damage was done. Because of this delay both of our credit reports are destroyed.So we now have a late car payment and a late house payment That we can not fix. We havent missed payments on anything in years until this. We shouldve never listen to the advice of this company. What they told us would take 3 to 4 weeks, ended up actually taking 8 to 9 and now we can not do it. They pulled our credit at least three times and that third time showed the late payment putting a stop to everything. So now they declined us the refinance.Those payments didnt have to be late but we were advised not to worry about them because we will be closing by the end of XXXX And it would just throw off the payoff statements anyway. They would not communicate and they gave bad advice that destroyed our credit. Because of the negligence of this company. My husbands and my credit are destroyed. And now we can not refinance anywhere because of the damage that has been done

My mortgage company sent us a letter in XXXX stating we were six months past due. We were only 5 months past due but rather than argue, we paid the mortgage current.

I immediately called them to let them know that they received XXXX payment per their instruction and that I had additionally made another payment in XXXX. Their attorneys have records of both of these payments. Ive called at least 10 times and their agents tell me that they can see there is a mistake on the ledgers on their end and they will send it to a supervisor to fix. This has been going on for more than a month and they havent updated their records yet and are threatening foreclosure.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/2021, I sent communication to XXXX  and Experian asking for a collection account to be investigated. The account is with XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have requested from the creditor documents validating this debt several times, as I am not aware where this came from .I sent in proof several times that this creditor is not validating the debt because they are not informing me as to how it was obtained. They have sent me several communications stating that the original creditor believes it is valid. When asked to send me proof of this account. XXXX  on 3 occasions sent me a 2 page bill that displayed no information as to what the charges are for. Also XXXX was reporting conflicting information between the credit bureaus. I sent this information to the reporting agencies and they only updated the information to match. XXXX  and Experian both failed to properly validate this debt. I have not been informed by neither XXXX, XXXX, nor Experian on how this debt was obtained nor where it came from. When I called XXXX  I was told that they have just started my dispute on XX/XX/2021, that is one month after my certified mail receipt shows it was delivered. Once I advised the rep that I had proof it was received by them on XX/XX/2021, he then changed the story that the investigation was completed and that they updated the information. This information is damaging my character and causing me a great deal of stress. I am trying to purchase a home and this is stopping me.
