Company: Mr. Cooper Group Inc.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I have held a XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX insurance for years- this year in XXXX Mr. Cooper notified me I had no XXXX insurance- I do, so I uploaded my documents again. I received an email stating nothing further was needed- only to hear in XXXX that an escrow account was opened as I owed {$1800.00}. Later I discovered they forced insurance on me for structure only. Same day I researched an discovered why they forced a policy on me- I secured my own insurance that was XXXX XXXX through XXXX- Mr. cooper rejected this insurance initially so I had the agent call and he stated all was fine Mr. Cooper had the policy as fully paid. Mr. Cooper kept the escrow amount and although the forced insurance was taken out on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX Mr. Cooper back dated it to XX/XX/XXXX. Again I always had XXXX insurance- Mr. cooper XXXX to tell me they were no longer accepting XXXX XXXXXXXX. 
Then yesterday, XX/XX/XXXX I receive an email stating Mr. cooper paid my XXXX insurance through my escrow on XX/XX/XXXX and sent {$290.00} to XXXX although I paid this policy in full on XXXX XXXX now Mr. Cooper added this amount to my escrow - and although a mistake made by Mr. Cooper sending a payment to an insurance company that I already paid a policy in full. This amount is now added to my escrow. I have never had an escrow account with Mr. Cooper and they will not close this account and are adding to this balance with their own errors. I am a victim of Mr. Cooper miscommunication and now I am revictimized by Mr. cooper sending payment to a policy already paid in full. I am being targeted as a single mother. I need assistance to rectify this situation. I moved away from Mr. Cooper to XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX years ago as Mr. Cooper mis-filed me as not paying my mortgage and created a hardship for me, I have NEVER in XXXX years missed a mortgage payment- this was an error made by XXXX XXXX unfortunately although XXXX refinanced with XXXX, XXXX sold my mortgage back to Mr. cooper the very company XXXX was trying to escape. I need help so Mr. Cooper does not steal any more money from me- and I need a method to prevent Mr. cooper XXXX opening false escrow accounts and paying bills that are paid in full. My XXXX home insurance is paid in full for XXXX XXXX XXXX and no payments need to be made by Mr. cooper. I need this stopped immediately.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
You have reported inaccurate and unauthorized accounts on my credit report, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) requiring a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates maximum possible accuracy. These false entries are damaging and unjust, especially since Ive never opened or authorized these accounts. If you fail to investigate and correct this, I may pursue legal action under the FCRA and FDCPA ( 15 U.S. Code 1692e ) for deceptive and misleading reporting.

Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score — Other problem getting your report or credit score
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Complaint Regarding Inaccessible Experian Account and Lack of Support I am submitting this complaint because I have been unable to access my Experian account, which has prevented me from viewing my credit score and obtaining my annual credit report. This has been an ongoing issue, and I am extremely frustrated with the lack of accessible customer support from Experian.

The account is currently locked, and when I try to recover it, Im required to verify using my old email address and old phone number, both of which I no longer have access to. This has made it impossible for me to get back into the account. When I attempt to call Experian, the automated system does not allow me to speak with a live representative unless I can verify the old contact informationwhich I can not. 

This issue is further complicated by the fact that my computer and XXXX were hacked last year, which compromised several of my accounts, including my email. Since then, Ive been locked out of multiple platforms due to compromised credentials, including my Experian account. I have no reliable way to check my credit or monitor for further fraud or identity theft, and this has created a serious barrier to managing my financial health. 

I am reaching out to the CFPB in hopes that you can help me connect with someone at Experian who can assist me with verifying my identity through alternate means, so that I can regain access to my account. I am also open to any guidance or advice from others who may have experienced similar issues and successfully resolved them. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I am sincerely hoping for a resolution soon.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: VT

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 my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
My accounts was never late! I have had exceptional payment history with XXXX  XXXX and 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 reported to be removed/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. 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!

Complaint narrative:
I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
