Complaint narrative:
I contacted XXXX in an application for loan modification. Iwas supplied with inaccurate telephone numbers, wrong address, and apoint of contact person who had no idea how I received their telephonenumber. In my case, I feel that these hurdles were placed to discourageme from trying to receive assistance with my mortgage. Their motto is, '' We 're here to help. '' I am still trying to work with my Lender and Servicer toreview my application for a FHA Short Refinance Loan.

Company: Rocket Mortgage, LLC

Complaint narrative:
I clicked on a website for 'get current mortgage rates ' and filled out my name, address. Immediately someone from Quicken Loans called me. I specifically told him all I wanted was current rates and he said he just wanted to know about my current situation so he could see if he could help. He then apparently submitted a mortgage application in using my name because I received a denial letter. I did not apply for any mortgage from this company and this has to be illegal on their part.

Company: TOTAL MORTGAGE SERVICES LLC

Complaint narrative:
This has absolutely been the worse experience I have had with a lender. They have caused much distress and sadness in our family. We filed our Application with Total Mortgage Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CT XXXX on XXXX XXXX, 2016. Our signing date was to be XXXX XXXX and closing date XXXX XXXX, 2016. Total mortgage missed our signing date and closing date. Did not find out until XXXX XXXX that the house would not close on XXXX XXXX. We were due out of our rental home on XXXX XXXX. They almost made us homeless. Thank goodness our landlord let us stay. 

They stated to our lender that they sent out closing documents on XXXX XXXX but the documents did not show up until XXXX XXXX. Their sales person sent us an email right after the documents were sent to disregard the closing documents that it was sent in error. 

Per their website : 30 Day Guarantee Need to close on your new home quickly? 
We guarantee that we 'll close your purchase within 30 days. * Otherwise, we 'll make your first mortgage payment As you can see, this did not happen. We are still in limbo. They have disregarded the VA regulations and the email from the manager that was sent regarding our loan. They cost us {$490.00} in appraisal fees and {$1000.00} penalty fee ( normally {$250.00} a day ) to our builder because they did not close on time. They told our lender that this loan would get done and as of XXXX XXXX, 2016, nothing has been completed nor communicated on this loan. I want people to be aware of this companies false hopes. I would like for them to refund my fees for not closing on time.

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX they reported a collection account to the major credit bureaus. The account is a fraudulent account, due to a robbery we had in 2008 we have become the victims of identity theft. XXXX Services admittedly sent no letters or made no calls to the phone number or address that belongs to me, this information could have been found when they looked into my credit files, they would have also noticed the fraud alerts. By not sending me information and giving me the chance to dispute they took away my rights under the FTC 's FDCPA, I informed them of this and they offered no solution. They also stopped communicating with me and will not respond, I have also filed a complaint with the FTC regarding this matter. I am in the middle of XXXX and personal financing and this collection account that I did n't have the ability to correct before it went to the credit bureaus just dropped my credit scores XXXX points between the XXXX bureaus. It 's causing me monetary damages every day.

When they turned bill over to GC Collections who immediately contacted my ex wife, even though she was not a cardmember. They contacted her before I even received notice that they were involved. They advised her who they were, what was owed, etc. This is not the first time this has happened. This happened several years ago on XXXX account XXXX. They went so far as to call my children to attempt to collect the debt, threatened me with court and called continuously, even though they were advised not to. XXXX XXXX was made aware of their actions at that time but still uses them. It would appear to me that XXXX is aware of the problem and approves of their tactics.

Company: ONLINE Information Services, Inc.
State: AR

Complaint narrative:
A bill was sent to collection. I was never notified of the bill or collection. They will not remove collection from credit report if paid. My wife and I filled for a mortgage loan with XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. We followed the credit analysts advice and paid XXXX credit card down. When my credit report came back from re-score there appeared a collection for {$62.00} and change. The collection was from an unpaid final electric bill from my apartment before I moved in with my now wife from XX/XX/XXXX. I never received a final bill nor notification of the debt from the electric company nor the collection agency. Not a phone call nor an email. No form of communication. I offered to pay the debt with out issue if they would send a deletion request to the credit bureaus. Not only was I told this was a violation of the fair credit reporting act I was lectured as if I was some unintelligent criminal and yelled at in very high volume twice by one of their supervisors by simply asking for the deletion. I was informed by my credit analyst that by them telling me that a deletion was against the fair credit reporting act was in fact a violation. I even called all XXXX credit bureaus. A deletion is totally legal and ethical. The collection agency has simply refused to delete the collection for absolutely no reason. I even informed XXXX supervisors including the XXXX that lectured and yelled and insulted me that this collection that I was never notified of in anyway shape or form was the only thing keeping me and my wife from our home. Their refusal to process my request which after my due diligence is totally legal and ethical and in fact happens every day has kept my wife and I from being able to purchase our home. The collection being removed would jump my score upwards of XXXX point well above where we would need to be. I again was never notified in anyway that there was a debt owed nor a collection and I was informed they had the collection since XX/XX/XXXX.

I also sent XXXX emails to the company 's receivables department and I was redirected to the collection company. I also sent a certified dispute letter to the collection company a few days later.

Just got off the phone with XXXX, called to see if I could get on a extended payment plan as stated on the website of the CFSA and under facts and myths about payday lenders on the Check n Go website.

When all is paid back I will have paid XXXX dollars for a XXXX dollar loan and they wont work with me at all, only if it goes into default which will cost me bank fees and additional fees with Check n Go.
