Product: Prepaid card — Government benefit card
Issue: Problem getting a card or closing an account — Trouble getting, activating, or registering a card
Company: FISERV FINXACT CORE
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I was approved for XXXX benefits in XXXX. However, by XXXX I still had not received a debit card with my benefits. Upon calling the card issuer, Money Network Financial , LLC ( d/b/a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, they told me the card had been activated on XX/XX/2024 and that the entire balance save XXXX cents had been withdrawn or spent at ATMs and grocery stores in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I live in XXXX, and had never received the card, much less activated it, so I was completely baffled as to how this happened. I have informed delivery with the XXXX postal service, which shows me all pieces of mail that are delivered to my home. The envelope with the card was never even mailed. From there, I filed a police report, contacted Money Network, and told them everything that had happened. They put in a claim for me so that the fraud was now officially listed and in an effort to get those funds back to me. They said a new card would be sent. I never actually received that XXXX card! Then, on XX/XX/XXXX, when I went on the XXXX website to certify for benefits ( you do this every XXXX weeks ), I was told XXXX already been done on the XXXX over the phone. This money was released to Money Network and I never received these funds either. Money Network was unable to tell me where these funds went. 
Also on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notice from Money Network that I would not be reimbursed for the money that had been stolen, as they had electronically verified the account. Meaning, they used a PIN when making the purchase but thats because the fraudsters set their own pin when they activated the card! 
I filed a claim for all monies with the CFPB and after more than a month, I received a check from Money Network for the funds that had been put on the XXXX card -- a total of {$1300.00}. However, I never received a check for the money that was placed on the XXXX card ( that I also didn't receive ), even though this account was also closed. It's been XXXX + months now and I'm still out {$810.00}, so I'm obviously just beside myself! 

**Note : I do NOT have have the pre-paid card number of the XXXX card that was stolen, as Money Network would not provide it to me. However, I DO have the XXXX card number, and both cards were " under my name ''. The XXXX card number is : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I did not want to list this on the following page, as I was concerned it might make things confusing without being able to explain.

I am writing to dispute the following information in my file, and have noted the relevant disputes. Upon a closer review, I found several accounts and credit inquiries that had been hit by my name aside from those which were unauthorized or unrecognized .XXXX the postings do not seem appropriate to my credit history ; but are incorrect account entries, or are accounts created due to identity theft. Due to the presence of these incorrect items, it has lowered my credit score and affected some personal finance.

XX/XX/XXXX Subject : Complaint Regarding Inaccurate Late Payment Entry on Credit Report Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against Equifax regarding an inaccurate late payment entry on my credit report that has not been resolved despite my attempts to rectify the issue. 

Account Information : Creditor 's Name : XXXX XXXXXXXX Account Number : XXXX Dates of Late Payments : XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. 

Nature of Complaint : I submitted a dispute to Equifax disputing a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX. I referenced the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) ( 15 U.S. Code 1637 ( b ) ) in my dispute, explaining that the reported late payment was inaccurate for the following reasons : Reason for Dispute : I made my payment on time, but due to a processing delay, it was not credited to my account until after the due date. I have included bank statements that confirm the payment was made before the due date. 
Despite providing this information and adhering to the dispute process within the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Equifax has failed to resolve this matter satisfactorily or remove the inaccurate late payment from my credit report. 

As a consumer, I have rights under the FCRA and XXXX, including the right to accurate credit reporting. The continued presence of this inaccurate information is negatively impacting my credit score and financial well-being. 

Requested Resolution : I kindly request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that credit reporting agencies adhere to the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Truth in Lending Act. 

Thank you for your attention to this important matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the investigation of my complaint. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to express concerns regarding the verification practices of the XXXX major credit bureaus : TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX. I believe that my consumer rights have been violated in the course of my attempts to dispute inaccurate information on my credit report. 

On XX/XX/2024, I sent notarized affidavits to all three credit bureaus requesting that they provide detailed information regarding the verification methods used to substantiate the accounts listed on my credit report. Unfortunately, despite repeated requests, I have yet to receive any substantive evidence to support the accuracy of these accounts. 

I have sent a total of XXXX affidavits to each credit bureau, all of which were sent by certified mail and included a notarized signature. Each affidavit specifically requested proof of verification sent to my address for the disputed accounts. However, the only response I have received is a generic statement affirming the accuracy of the accounts without providing any supporting documentation. 

I believe that the credit bureaus ' failure to provide adequate verification for the disputed accounts constitutes a violation of my consumer rights. I am requesting an investigation into this matter and take appropriate action to hold the credit bureaus accountable for their practices. 


XXXX of Events : XX/XX/2024 : Sent initial affidavits to TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX. 
XX/XX/2024 : Sent second affidavits to XXXX and TransUnion. 
XX/XX/2024 : Sent second affidavit to XXXX. 
XX/XX/2024 : Sent third affidavits to all three credit bureaus. 

As of XX/XX/2024, I have yet to receive any substantive response from the credit bureaus regarding my requests for verification. 

Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.

Complaint narrative:
Mortgage Company : NewRez Loan XXXX : XXXX I am writing to file a complaint regarding inaccurate reporting of late mortgage payments by NewRez. Due to some family-related issues, I have occasionally paid my mortgage slightly late, but I have always ensured that the payments were made before the XXXX mark to avoid negative impacts on my credit. 

Here are the key details of the issue : I reside on the XXXX XXXX, while NewRezs processing center is located on the XXXX XXXX. 
On XX/XX/year>, I logged into the NewRez online portal and made my XXXX mortgage payment. However, due to the time zone difference, the payment did not reflect in their system until XX/XX/year>. 
As a result, a XXXX late payment was reported on my XXXX and XXXX credit reports, even though the payment was made on time according to my local time zone. 
To complicate matters further, I recently discovered that my XXXX report is showing a XXXX late payment for XX/XX/year>, not XXXX, while XXXX and XXXX are only reporting the late payment for XXXX. 
I submitted disputes to all three credit bureaus, but they returned as verified, with no changes made. I have also tried contacting NewRez directly, but their loan servicing department does not take phone calls, leaving me with no means to speak with someone about this matter. 

I am asking for a review of this situation, particularly considering the time zone discrepancy that caused the payment to be recorded as late. I have made every effort to ensure my payments were within the XXXX window, and I believe the late marks on my credit reports are unjust. 

This issue is now preventing me from refinancing my mortgage, and I hope that NewRez can work with me to resolve this matter by removing the XXXX late payment from my credit reports. 

Thank you for your assistance.

Company: SN SERVICING CORPORATION

Complaint narrative:
I am behind about XXXX months of my mortgage. I was repaying it back as much as I could possibly can each month. XXXX month SNSC decided that that wasn't good enough ( even though I have been paying my mortgage amount plus some extra each month to make up for it ). They gave me XXXX months to pay {$200.00} extra on top of my mortgage then we could reevaluate. Now with all the late fees they have been adding on, we are at about XXXX months behind, even with my extra payments. I brought them a resonable payment plan that had that past due paid in XXXX months and they keep rejecting me. Telling me that's not enough. I understand they want the full amount but I can't give what I don't have. I literally am trying to repay them as quick as possible but they are not even attempting to work with me. They locked me out of my online account so I can't even pay anything.

Complaint narrative:
" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. 

I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record on my XXXX Bank account [ XXXX ]. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.
