Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: MIDCOUNTRY FINANCIAL CORP
State: AE

Complaint narrative:
After a company has charged off your debt they have no permissible reason what so ever to pull a consumers credit. This is a clear violation of my privacy rights under the FCRA LAWS. on XXXX XXXX 2017, XXXX XXXX 2017 and onXX/XX/XXXX the company Pioneer Financial services deliberately violated my privacy rights under the FCRA permissibly reason to pull a consumer credit report being that I have no open account with them or any account in collections with them according to the notes on my file with this company and on my credit report.
Under the FCRA this is the definition of Permissible Purpose. Being that this company is not actively trying to provide me with credit, nor are the actively trying to collect a debt there is no reason for them to be pulling my credit. The accounts that I have with them currently are charged off as a bad debt and as a loss. They have not assigned a collection agency to peruse collections so as I stated they have no reason to pull my credit the three times that they have pulled it. This is abuse of power to cause harm to a person personal credit and I would like for them to be further investigated on my behalf. Permissible purposes of consumer reports [ 15 U.S.C. 1681b ] ( a ) In general. Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 1 ) In response to the order of a court having jurisdiction to issue such an order, or a subpoena issued in connection with proceedings before a Federal grand jury. ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. ( 3 ) To a person which it has reason to believe ( A ) intends to use the information in connection with a credit trans- action involving the consumer on whom the information is to be furnished and involving the extension of credit to, or review or collection of an account of, the consumer ; or ( B ) intends to use the information for employment purposes ; or ( C ) intends to use the information in connection with the underwriting of insurance involving the consumer ; or ( D ) intends to use the information in connection with a determination of the consumers eligibility for a license or other benefit granted by a governmental instrumentality required by law to consider an applicants financial responsibility or status ; or ( E ) intends to use the information, as a potential investor or servicer, or current insurer, in connection with a valuation of, or an assessment of the credit or prepayment risks associated with, an existing credit obligation

Company: Quality Asset Recovery LLC

Complaint narrative:
I do n't know these companies or debts, tried to reach out to get information on debt but nothing was sent or verified to me, I disputed with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX but it comes back as verified but I did n't receive anything, if this debt is valid ( which it should not be ) I did not authorize my personal information to be shared with a third party company I am allowed under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ( HIPAA ) to protect my privacy and medical records from third parties. I did not give permission to any of my current or prior medical providers to release any of my medical information to a third party. I am aware that the HIPAA does allows the release of limited information about me but anything more is to only be revealed with the patients authorization. Therefore, my request is twofoldvalidation of debt and HIPAA authorization. I am also XXXX and have been receiving XXXX health insurance such as XXXX and XXXX which was presented as form of payment at every doctor appointment so I 'm not sure why there is even a debt to begin with.

Issue: Other features, terms, or problems — Problem with rewards from credit card
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: WI

Complaint narrative:
I did not record all specific contact dates with the company, however, here is the problem. I have a Master Card through XXXX XXXX which offers rewards including cash back of 1 % of purchases. My rewards points amount entitles me to about {$470.00} in cash. Starting in XX/XX/XXXX I tried to redeem the points for the cash to use to pay towards my outstanding balance. At that time the relevant web site that I logged into contained a message to the effect that rewards information is not available at this time, please try again later. I contacted the company initially in XX/XX/XXXX and I tried with the customer service rep to get me access but to no avail. At the end of conversation I was told it would be fixed soon. Well it is still not fixed as of XX/XX/XXXX. I have contacted the bank at least 10 times since XX/XX/XXXX and it is still not fixed. They keep telling me it is being worked on and wait some days and try again. I did that repeatedly which led to my calling the bank each time. Also I told the bank all I want to do is redeem the points for the cash so the website info does not matter. They told me repeatedly that absolutely no one at the bank can do that for me. There is no manual work around that exists and I am the only one who can do it and only through the website, which of course for 3 and one half months has not allowed me to do that. Supervisor XXXX who I spoke with today XX/XX/XXXX confirmed that. He could not help me other than to tell me it will be fixed which is what everyone else has been telling me for over 3 months. I am not asking for a great deal. All I want is to cash in my rewards points and apply the amount to my account balance. Synchrony has my money and will not give it to me. Please help. Thank you.

Company: Phoenix Financial Services LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am submitting a formal complaint against a company known as, " Phoenix Financial Services LLC. '' XX/XX/XXXX, I observed that I had a collection agency by the name of Phoenix Financial Services reporting to the Credit Bureaus as debt. I immediately researched the company to resolve the issue. I spoke to a customer service representative by the name of " XXXX '' and asked her about the account in question. XXXX informed me that she only collects a debt for the original creditor. I asked XXXX, who was the original creditor. XXXX stated the original creditor was a doctor or hospital. XXXX  stated, she did not know but she could provide me with a settlement offer. I asked XXXX about the settlement, due to the fact I do need to remove this item regardless of, I am trying to purchase a home. XXXX stated she could settle the account for XXXX dollars and write off the remaining amount. XXXX also stated that I need to hurry up and make a decision to accept the settlement cause she did not know when the company would get rid of my file. I asked XXXX if she could provide me with validation of the account. XXXX stated, I will email you. I received ONE email with a settlement offer attached. This is the last I spoke to XXXX in regards to this account. I still am unaware of the original creditor or how it 's validated to be my account. The company reported that my account was opened XX/XX/XXXX, today, XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from Phoenix Financial Services dated, XX/XX/XXXX, stating that they have verified my account with the original creditor with a " Statement of Account '' that I received with a date of service, XX/XX/XXXX. The Statement of Account states that the " Statement Date '' is XX/XX/XXXX. I have never received ANY form of statement, validation, or so forth.
I would also like to state, if this is a MEDICAL debt that I am legally responsible for, the service date for XXXX XXXX, should have been covered by his medical insurance, which should have been billed Texas Chip Medicaid.

Issue: Trouble during payment process — 
Company: AmeriHome Mortgage Company, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX, Closed on home and 1 acre of property. At the time of closing, the closing docs show yearly XXXX County, TX taxes at {$2000.00}. In XX/XX/XXXX, original loan was purchased by Amerihome mortgage company. Monthly payments were {$1200.00}, which included loan plus taxes, and insurances, projected for XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, Amerihome issued an over payment from the escrow account in the amount of {$1300.00}. Immediately called Amerihome, and they stated that all taxes and insurance were paid and that their records indicated our XXXX Co taxes are lower and this over payment was due to property owner. In XX/XX/XXXX, early XX/XX/XXXX, we were contacted by XXXX Co Tax Office via letter that our taxes for XX/XX/XXXX were not fully paid and they were going to put a lien on property if not paid in full immediately. The amount paid was only half to XXXX Co in XX/XX/XXXX. Immediately contacted Amerihome who initiated an investigation and determined that from XX/XX/XXXX ( upon buying the mortgage ), that they admittedly were not withholding the proper county taxes throughout the entire XX/XX/XXXX year. Their records indicated that property taxes were only half of the original amount, despite the closing documents reflecting, the annual taxes were {$2000.00}. We received a letter from Amerihome, dated XX/XX/XXXX after investigation completed, stating " escrow account is short {$2400.00} and must immediately be paid or monthly mortgage payment would increase to {$1500.00}. After several phone calls and emails to supervisors, no logical conclusion on why Amerihome 's failure to properly withhold the correct tax amount from the time they purchased the mortgage in XX/XX/XXXX, was reached. Amerihome has concluded that this is 100 % our fault and has offered no logical resolution, except, paying the entire {$2400.00} immediately, or spreading out the loss in the escrow account over a 24-month period, which has raised the monthly payment to {$1400.00}. Amerihomes failure to properly review and verify original closing docs, has now placed a significant financial burden on us, and the fact they have expressed no concern or remorse for their failure, has us now looking for a logical conclusion and resolution.
