Issue: Managing an account — Problem making or receiving payments
Company: UNITED SERVICES AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I scheduled a bill pay transaction with USAA for my new mortgage with XXXX XXXX The website says the scheduled payments will be made within 5-7 business days. I scheduled the payment for XX/XX/24 for the payment due on XX/XX/24. This was mailed on XXXX according to USAA. The payment was not received by the mortgage company until the XXXX. 
Due to the late payment, a {$99.00} late fee was added to my mortgage statement. My XXXX statement attached shows that the payment was not received and reflected the previous payment and fee were due at that time. I paid the amount to keep the mortgage in good standing. I called the bank again on XX/XX/24 and after an hour with them on the phone, they admitted fault that it didn't arrive on time, incurring the charge. They stated that they would initiate a review file and contact the mortgage company to get the {$99.00} back. A few days passed and I called the bank for status on XX/XX/24. The agent at first was confused about what I was talking about, put me in hold twice, then told me there was a review entered but no progress was made. I was transferred and was told that I need to call the bill pay agency XXXX to provide more information. I called and was unable to get contact with a person or find an automated option that met criteria for what I needed. 
After inability to provide my information, I called the bank back for help, was told I was being transferred to someone else and the call disconnected. Today there is still no contact from the bank regarding progress or status.

Complaint narrative:
We submitted XXXX payment via XXXX XXXX online payment page to Westlake Financial. On XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, payments for {$750.00} each were processed and sent. We received a letter in the mail dated XX/XX/XXXX from Westlake stating that we owed {$1500.00}. I called Westlake on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX and a representative at first said no payment was received. When I informed her that XXXX XXXX did indeed send payment I was told that the payments were sent to the dealer as a loan buyback and I would need to contact the dealer. This made no sense and the dealership had no idea what they were talking about. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Westlake again to inform them the dealer had no idea what they were talking about. At that time Westlake said no payment was received and to contact XXXX XXXX. I did and confirmed payment was made. I called Westlake again that day to confirm they were indeed paid. On XX/XX/XXXX I filed XXXX claims with XXXX to confirm that payment was cashed. The next day I received confirmation that they were indeed cashed. On XX/XX/XXXX I called Westlake to so how to rectify the situation. I was told to email proof of payment and call to confirm on email and images being received. I was told it would take 24-48 business hours to research and find where payment went. I called again today, XX/XX/XXXX and was told at first they were unable to locate, then that the pictures were blurry and to resend. I told the rep that I called once the email with proof of payment was received to ensure it was in good order. I am refinancing with another company, but would either like my payments returned or credited to the account and any fees associated with it to be dropped.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
Upon a recent examination of my credit report, I have identified multiple billing errors pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1666 ( b ), specifically : 1. The creditor 's failure to accurately reflect a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor on the statement 2. A computational or similar accounting error on the creditor 's statement.

Moreover, the creditor did not provide the legally required 21-day notice prior to the statement, resulting in improper late payment recordings on this account. I hereby demand verifiable documentation from the creditor 's financial records substantiating that I failed to make these payments on time. It is evident that this constitutes a billing error. 
The following items must be amended to " Paid as Agreed '' on my consumer report : 1 ) Payment Status for Month of XXXX, 2019 2 ) Payment Status for Month of XXXX, 2019 3 ) Payment Status For Month of XXXX, 2019 Pursuant to my rights as a consumer, I demand that these remarks be updated or deleted immediately. Due to these incorrect payment reports, my ability to obtain new credit has been severely limited, hindering my efforts to improve both my life and my children 's lives. Non-compliance will compel me to seek monetary compensation for this violation under 15 U.S. Code 1681n ( Civil Liability ) in small claims court.
