Consumer complaint received 2022-07-06 00:00:00
Product: Mortgage — Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I submitted an application to Texas Homeowners Assistance Fund with Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs on XX/XX/XXXX. My completed application has been reviewed and approved to receive financial assistance for my past due mortgage balance with PNC Bank. I have submitted all required Release of Information and Authorization of my account information to PNC Bank for Tx HAF ( Homeowners Assistance Fund ) and TDCHA ( Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs ) to communicate about my mortgage loan. On XX/XX/XXXX Texas Homeowners Assistance Fund emailed a validation request in an effort to verify my loan to pay off the past due balance on the account. Texas HAF received the document XX/XX/XXXX with the incorrect borrower information on the request form. I have contacted PNC Bank several times weekly via telephone and email in an effort to get the correct information updated on the validation request and submitted to Tx HAF. I contacted representatives with PNC Mortgage XXXXoss Mitigation and Customer Service XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XXXX with no updates in regards to the validation request or the status of the document. My caseworker with Tx HAF has also attempted contact with PNC directly XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XXXX without success. 

It is imperative that I am able to get this issue resolved in an effort to receive payment for the past due balance on my mortgage loan and avoid any foreclosure proceedings on my home. Communication with PNC Bank has been extremely onerous and the service I have been receiving as a borrower is subpar to say the least. PNC Bank has not demonstrated any effort or willingness to comply with requests made by myself or representatives from Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs. It is unacceptable that the incorrect information was submitted on my behalf, and the delay and lack of earnestness it is taking to rectify the situation by completing the validation request with my correct information.

Company: BARCLAYS BANK DELAWARE

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2022, on advice from a friend, I applied to Barclay credit card company. This company was highly recommended. I received a for letter from Barclay in the first week of XX/XX/2022 stating their interest rates and that my card is in the mail. I viewed their interest rates and found them to be excessive. 
On XX/XX/2022, I received the Barclay card and did not activate it ; I destroyed it. In the XX/XX/2022 mailing from Barclay, I noticed a fee for {$15.00}. I then mailed Barclay a notice that I did not activate their card and requested they not contact me again. 
On XX/XX/2022, I received another Barclay letter dated XX/XX/2022 noting that {$15.00} balance on my account. I do not have an account with this credit company. 
I think that Barclays business practice is suspect and would like resolution on this matter
