Hi
7 years ago I thought my bank accounts were closed but my personal one with a 300 dollar overdraft was not this was sent into collections due to me moving out of province.
3 months ago I called National collections and they told me to call common collections. I did and paid. They notified cibc and I have the clearance papers from common collections. It was reported to equifax and now it is paid okay great.
BUT here we go National Collections CIBC reported to equifax another account (the difference is a 2 not a zero in the 15 digit account number and they admitted to screwing up.
What happened is now I have 2 r9's on my credit and dropped from 651 to 559.
CIBC now says I cannot have a mortgage due to their screwup even though I have 30,000 for a down payment,make 90,000 a year and the mortgage is for 205,000.
So tomorrow calling the ombudsman,calling national collections again and a lawyer.
Any other suggestions?
