Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action

Subissue: Threatened to arrest you or take you to jail if you do not pay

Consumer Complaint: I received a phone call from XXXX on XX/XX/2021. The lady said her name was XXXX and calling from XXXX XXXX in regards to a debt they claimed I had with a bank I closed my account with over 8 years ago. She repeatedly interrupted me claimed they were going to contact the local police. They were going to have a judge hold me in contempt, serve me with some kind of papers, close my current bank accounts and restrict me from having any bank accounts in the future. After going back and forth trying to speak and get information to be sent to me she just kept interrupting me before she hung up on me. I called the local police department they asked me some questions. Asked if I could try and call them back to get the full name of the company. When I did somehow the same lady answered and said they were going to call the police for harassment to a business. Refused to give me the name of the company or any other I formation. Then today XX/XX/2021 the same lady called my girfriends phone threatening her the same way. Refusing to shut up so my girlfriend could talk. Basically the same things that happened to me the day before. I called the local police station again only to be told there is really nothing they can do..

The address, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Ga XXXX, is I never lived and on farther investigation it is a hotel ( business ).

Issue: Trouble during payment process

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: Ive been having trouble the past two months with no having my on time mortgage payment processed for Fifth Third Bank because I owe a surprise new amount for escrow. The communication of the escrow analysis change has been poor but understandable because of USPS delays and that I havent set up an online account yet ( my mortgage was bought by them recently ). The adjustment to the escrow didnt align with when my property taxes are adjusted or with an insurance renewal so I was confused why it would change. Yesterday when I was able to talk to the escrow team on the phone, they told me that it was their process to hold twice the amount of the total of my projected property tax and insurance costs in the escrow account. So I paid the overall shortage of {$270.00} and my mortgage payment is also increasing by {$16.00} every month. It doesnt seem right that they are about to hold double what I am projected to owe in property tax and insurance.

Issue: Problem getting a card or closing an account

Subissue: Trouble getting a working replacement card

Consumer Complaint: This week I contacted XXXX multiple times over chat and phone to ask for help. No one has been able to assist. I has disputed transactions that I reported and the company canceled the card. They issued a replacement. It takes 7 to 10 business days for the card to reach me according to Wisely. They did not offer at first to expedite the replacement. I got paid on XXXX and I can not access it in this account without the replacement. I can't move the $ through XXXX. My pay is entirely stuck. I have bills to pay and travel next week for work. When I got to speak to a manager yesterday XXXX, he offered to send a card via 2 business day shipping but said I would have to pay for it. I refused and asked for additional assistance and he hung up on me.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: I was on a forebearance due to covid from about XXXX of XXXX to XXXX of XXXX. I made my 3 temp payments to get back onto my normal mortgage payments and agreed to an amended mortgage to pay back what I owed for a 10 year extension. It has been 7 months and I still have not received my amended mortgage and everytime I call they say either it's in the process and the last time I called they said the docs would be at my house by then of the week ( 2 weeks ago ). The morgage lender is 5/3 bank. I am trying to refinance and can not because they refuse to send the amended mortgage docs for months now, and it still shows I owe over $ XXXX in payments to them.
