I got a small installment loan in a check cashing place in the XX/XX/XXXX.Lendify Financial was in charge of taking my payments and sending me documentation on debt.I made my payments on time and as promised on the months of XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX I called Lendify to notify them that I would not be able to make that months payment, due to me getting mugged and losing everything in XX/XX/XXXX.I was told I would receive a call back from my rep and that they would notate it and let my rep know " XXXX ''. that 's when the harassment calls started.I was called at XXXX point approximately 3 times a day for about a week. I would answer and explain the situation but it was always followed by " ok so can you pay today? '' I said " no please notate for a supervisor to call me. Please stop the calls I 'm at work I ca n't answer only call me at lunch at XXXX please so we can solve this problem '' I very politely asked all reps I was not to be called between the hours of XXXX to XXXX only from XXXX to XXXX because I work and have school.Once again they assured me they would follow up and notate account ( they never gave me last names ) Calls kept happening and reps XXXX about me not being able to pay and were not cooperative when i asked to speak with manager or supervisor. i asked multiple reps if calls could stop or if i needed to submit written cease of communication notice, reps said no such thing existed.There were so many calls that I had to block the caller but they called again from another number! I told the reps that I did n't feel comfortable making payments on the account without a supervisor. I aksed for dispute information be sent to me or validation of debt in order for me to continue making payments since I noticed illegal debt collection practices. I refused to pay late fees on the account because I had notified them well in advance about the payment plan changes and had not received a call or ANY document from them about debt. After many calls from me and messages to managers about FDCPA violations on collection of debt, the calls stopped. Finally a manger answered my call and helped but they refused to take out the fees and said every day I did n't pay they would report me to my credit company. I agreed to pay once i got documentation and dispute papers. Lendify failed again to send documnets. Instead they charged off my account on XX/XX/XXXX for " missed promise to pay payments '' even though I had been communicating my troubles to MULTIPLE reps of why I did n't want to pay until I got proper documentation.The charge off made my credit score drop drastically even lower than I had ( being a college student who has never opened up a credit card ) so I had to bite the bullet and pay them because I really need to work on my credit for a car. Well now it 's about 3 1/2 weeks later, almost a month after I paid the account off regardless of the horrible experience I had with Lendify and its harassing tactics. However, they still have yet to send the paid in full letter and still have n't reported the debt payed off even though they promised they would report it as paid in full to credit bureau. Ive tried calling Lendify at the number online however it doesnt work. No one will return my calls and reps lie about the wherabouts of managers. They keep me on hold for lomg length of time and bounce mt call from rep to rep but no manager. The most recent incident was last Thursday XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called them to try and fix everything and get my letter so I can personally follow up with Credit Company myself.I was put on hold about 4 times and transferred to XXXX different reps.I insisted a manager take the call and they told me that ALL managers and supervisors were in a meeting.It is now Monday XXXX XXXX XXXX I still have not received a call back or documentation on PAID account.

On XXXX XXXX, XXXX I went to a check cashing center in XXXX California at : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX California XXXX. I went there to specifically get a payday loan for {$200.00}. I asked the clerk, do you check credit for a payday loan? She replied " No ''. I said okay I would like to apply for a payday loan of {$200.00}. She took my personal information, and processed the application for a payday loan. At no time did the clerk ever tell me that I was applying for a XXXX XXXX XXXX loan. That loan is not a payday loan. No where on the payday loan documents does it say the word XXXX XXXX XXXX. I had never heard of XXXX XXXX XXXX until I received a letter from then from a phony address over a month after I had already paid back the payday loan. I received a letter stating that I had applied for a XXXX XXXX which is a lie. It stated that I did not qualify for the loan and that they had accessed both XXXX and XXXX. They violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act by illegally accessing my credit reports and doing what is called a hard Inquiry. What really is happening is that XXXX XXXX along with check cashing businesses are going behind consumers backs and attempting to use their personal information to open up loans. This is illegal and its identity theft along with a direct violation of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, Criminal Identity Theft California Criminal Code 530.5 PC # 619 obtaining information under false pretenses. I contacted the Check Cashing CEO and I made an undisclosed settlement with the Check Cashing for these violations. That does not excuse them from breaking the law. XXXX XXXX has continuously lied about this. XXXX XXXX does not have a signed loan application with my signature on it which is required by federal law, and state of California law. I do not intend to allow them to get away with this fraudulent behavior. So I realize that CFPB will only contact XXXX XXXX and tell them to contact me. This will not solve this injustice, and I intend to bring the full law down on them in Federal Court very soon. XXXX XXXX XXXX is using numerous names, like Lendify and Insikit, they use several false addresses also, and they have false information filed with the Secretary of State in California. They were recently sued in Federal Court in the northern district of California, for breaking other consumer laws on loans. XXXX XXXX XXXX address is : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX California XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, uses voip to send all calls to a third world country where the people who answer their line can not speak or comprehend english, that number is XXXX. I expect this complaint should be turned over to federal investigators because I am making a direct accusation that I am not the only victim of this fraud. I am sure they have done this to other people who think they are applying for a Payday Loan.

Call XXXX XXXX multiple times and was told i will get a call and or a letter stating they will remove off my credit report once paid. Now they are telling me that it want be removed after payment it will stay on as a settlement. This is unfair and illegal and a disregard of my constitutional rights for me too be told once i pay it will be removed from my credit but when i as for it in writing i gets no response for years and now when i called they transferred me to a lady named XXXX and she said she CAN settle for less than the amount that is already charged off ( paid off on the books FDIC insurance, or reported as a loss ) which was {$330.00} settlement charge. I then asked her why will i pay off a debt that after 7 years will be took of my credit report to get a fresh date for the settlement to stay on my crrdit a fresh 7 years? I am willing to pay but it needs to be removed from my credit report. The impact has already happened you cant expect to get a payment and to add a new Derogatory remark to my credit report after you receive the fund owed. This account was open on XX/XX/XXXX its now XX/XX/XXXX

On Friday XXXX I received an alert from credit monitoring service that there had been a new hard inquiry on my credit report. This was definitely not me. I reached out to the company, XXXX, formerly known as Lendify Financial. I spoke with a young lady on the phone. I was told there is no fraud department I can speak with but gave me an email I could reach out to. She took no personal information from me so that she could look into this. Just my name and phone number. I emailed the company email she gave me and am receiving no response. I called back and was told the same story, no one i can speak to about this fraudulent action against me and that I needed to send an email.

I responded to an offer thru XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX. The offer was thru XXXX. The site offered a pre approval, and I submitted the pre approval for {$2500.00}. The site told me I was pre approved and asked for all my personal information. After submitting my personal information including my bank login and password. they told me I was only approved for XXXX. This is completely misleading! If they would have told me I was only approved for the XXXX I would have declined to proceed with a credit check. I want that credit inquiry removed and the company investigated for fraudulent business practices. This company completely mislead me.

On XX/XX/XXXX I called the company as they had charged me 4 different amounts for two loans that were paid off that date. However, they refused to reimburse these two extra charges. As a result. I called my bank to dispute the two extra charges this company was charging me. But, then the lending company argued that I had not made the payments and started charging me extra fees and interests for these loans I had already paid off. To this date, they are charging me for these extra fees that I have already paid.
