Issue: Closing/Cancelling account
Subissue:
Consumer Complaint: I had a checking account and credit card with HSBC USA. In early XX/XX/2015, I called HSBC USA to cancel all my accounts with them. They closed only the Checking account, and left the credit card opened. As a consequence, a remaining balance of a few dozen dollars was on my card a few months before I realize it. I had automated payment from checking to card, but after they closed my checking, no payment arrived on the card account. HSBC USA never contacted me about the card account. I contacted them many times, but since I closed my bank account with them, they did n't want to help me and correct there mistakes. As a consequence, I have a delinquency posted on my report that cost me a lot.

Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure
Subissue:
Consumer Complaint: My home is currently under a foreclosure process, but I have been taken advantage and been treated unfairly as I have been assessed unfair fees, and was a homeowner subject to both unfair debt collection practices and predatory lending practices of my original lender HSBC ( Appendix B ). My state of Illinois and XXXX County attorney general filed former suits against HSBC, and subsequently they have quietly attempted to transfer ownership and obligation to another entity - XXXX. Without my knowledge or consent, my home was transferred to a private entity, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, from a private sale for homes under distress. My servicer is now owned by XXXX, a global private equity fund, and is owned by a XXXX named XXXX. So XXXX has bought my mortgage in bulk auctioned deal, at a substantial discounted rate and has even been paid a big chunk of money that came out of my mortgage insurance. By not discounting the principal of my loan, the rich investors behind the XXXX make a windfall off of me. In addition, HSBC has continued the lawsuit under the representation that it is the owner of the loan without notifying the court that the ownership has changed. This can be confirmed and are on record from XXXX 's financial records website ( See Appendix D ). This entity has even represented themselves as being with XXXX as Trust for XXXX, however my lender and servicer are still listed as HSBC and XXXX respectively. I am advised that under XXXX, my mortgage could be considered a non-negotiable instrument. This practice is very unfair - how is it allowed that the private equity bigwigs get to buy my loans at a subsidy ( HUD ), but as a homeowner with a home under water, I do n't get a subsidy when trying to save my own home. They are profiting off of my distress. I have tried to work my old and new lender/servicer over the last year plus, but have not gotten any resolve or assistance. I have worked with my servicer and lender directly, HUD, XXXX County Foreclosure Mediation ( Honorable Judge XXXX XXXX ), and private consultation with an attorney. I was consequently advised to contact my local Congressman, National Association of Consumer Advocates, and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau on this matter. I am a previously unemployed, divorced father with XXXX children XXXX XXXX old, XXXX in college, XXXX, and XXXX elderly parent ( Mom, XXXX ) who I support and live in the home. My last few correspondences have only resulted in me being told to do a short sale or deed in lieu - transactions that would only benefit the lender/servicer. I was recently even told that a modification would not be considered due to the status of the loan and the fact that it 's severely under water.

Consumer Complaint: I have been paying back a {$70000.00} loan from Beneficial for over 20 years, and have repaid it more than twice over. Now that the loan is almost paid off they keep adding new charges to my loan without my permission every month. Last month it was an insurance policy, over {$500.00}, this month they paid my taxes, which I had already paid, over {$600.00} in new charges, plus they raised the payment with monthly insurance and tax charges. I have always paid my own taxes, it seems illegal to suddenly start paying the tax, then adding it to the loan without permission, adding interest, late charges, insurance and whatever else they can think of, especially when it is almost paid off, and could be paid off this year if they did n't add enormous charges every month, and they know I 'm old on a fixed income. XXXX, an accounting clerk with the Department of Assessment & Taxation with XXXX County, OR responding on behalf of the Assessor. " After further review of both accounts, it does appear that there are, in fact, two duplicate payments from both you and your lender. '' ( my XXXX is divided into XXXX sections, XXXX ) I had applied for the Senior citizen ' tax deferral program, but they turned me down after the first year because I did n't have insurance. The XXXX I had before, filed for bankruptcy ( The fellow who ran the business said there were too many claims due to GLOBAL WARMING ) - and according to the insurance lady that took over the office - because I live in a XXXX there is no insurance available. Several women have told me that their insurance was cancelled out in this area because they live too close to the " XXXX ''? I know you do n't control the insurance industry, but I wonder how it is that no insurance company will insure my property for me, but they will issue a policy for my property for Beneficial 's interest only? And if it is insured now can I get the senior citizen 's deferral? Is that why they paid the tax? Do they actually pay somebody to figure out how they can squeeze the last dime out of old people who are almost debt free? Or am I just a conspiracy theorist? They do n't have contact info on their bills, no phone, no website and they do n't respond to letters. Anyway, thanks for your help.
