They stated that they had recently purchased the loan from another mortgage company ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and did not have access to all of the details yet on my loan. They requested I send over, via fax, the notification from the city as well as a copy of the unpaid bill and stated they would \" research it ''. I immediately requested the bill from the city, which had to be mailed to me. On XX/XX/XXXX, after receiving the bill I faxed the notice and bill to the fax number provided and received a confirmation of receipt. The very next day, XX/XX/XXXX I received a similar notice from my county tax office ( XXXX County ) stating they too have not received a property tax payment for the second half of XXXX. I faxed that notification and bill to the same escrow account fax number at The Money Source, receiving a confirmation of receipt. At that point, I made a phone call to The Money Source and voiced my concerns and asked that someone immediately investigate. The representative stated that they would investigate to verify the bills had indeed not been paid. They went on to say the investigation could take as long as 10 days. And finally she stated that if I did not hear back, that meant all was well and the taxes would be paid! Two months later on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notice that a lien had been placed on my home and it was to be sold on the courthouse steps on XX/XX/XXXX for failure to pay property taxes. I immediately called The Money Source and asked them what was going on, asked them why the bills weren't paid. They had no record of my XXXX correspondence. Seeing that my escrow account had more than {$13000.00} in the account with no payouts, they knew they were at fault. In addition, at this point, I had received a notice from my homeowners insurance company ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) that my insurance had been cancelled as well due to nonpayment. The representative located all of my documents that were faxed in XXXX and assured me I would receive a prompt response and resolution, again after a 7-10 day investigation. She stated that the best way to handle the insurance cancellation was to speak directly to that department of The Money Store directly - she transferred me. A woman answered, looked into the account, place me on a brief hold while she said she was going to call my insurance company and get it straighten out. She came back on the line, stated that my insurance company had sent a bill and that The Money Source would pay it immediately. In late XXXX, The Money Source requested information from our insurance provider, which we provided on XX/XX/XXXX. I began following up on the daily but at this point the COVID-19 pandemic had hit and they stopped answering phone calls. I have waited for 7-10 days, 2-3 hours each day on hold waiting for a response. And nothing. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notice from The Money Source stating that because I have no insurance, they were going to provide \" their '' insurance at \" an elevated rate ''. Again, I kept calling The Money Source, as did my insurance agent and nothing. Just endless hold. No answers. So now there are even more problems. I need to get some assistance with my mortgage as the COVID-19 disaster has hit me and my three business devastatingly hard. I also need assistance from the SBA 's disaster loan program but am worried because one of the questions on the application asks if \" I currently have any liens against '' which will disqualify my application.

I am referencing complaint # XXXX.\nMs. XXXX basically does a great job of gaslighting our concerns. Our complaints were regarding ongoing misapplication of payments sent in ; her response speaks to too much payment on one loan group paid by my husband and myself and too little paid to the other loan group by my daughter. She is throwing up a smokescreen here to avoid taking responsibility, yet again.\nThe loan group that my husband and I pay is comprised of three loans, ending in the numbers XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. My daughter pays on the other three loans, ending in numbers XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. Per Ms. XXXX response, my husband and I are overpaying but we pay exactly what Navient directed us to pay, {$490.00} per month. My daughter apparently is underpaying, sending {$350.00} per month. Again, this is the amount Navient had directed her to pay. We have paid these amounts for years. I suspect the amount my husband and I pay is too much now, because interest rates have fallen, and this has impacted the amount due. However, it is baffling why my daughters amount due would increase, as the interest rates have fallen in the same exact way for the loans she pays. As far as I know, interest rates are down for all Americans, in all loan types. My daughter has not ever been notified of an increase in her monthly due amount. These accounts were allegedly reviewed last in XXXX, when we last filed formal complaints against Navient, yet this discrepancy was not pointed out by Navient at that time.\nTo further keep the smoke going here, Ms. XXXX never addresses the meat of the complaint. The specific accounts that had payments misapplied happen to be the three loans my husband and I pay on. These are overpaid, so there is absolutely no effect from the alleged underpayment by my daughter, nor does it in any way allow for straightforward misapplication of the funds sent to Navient. In other words, they got their money, why didnt it go where it was supposed to? Not only did they get their money, per Ms. XXXX own report, we sent them more than they needed. This is not logical, just nonsensical, and just gaslighting. I suspect this is corporate gobbledygook, where she just throws lots of words out there, and hopes that no one sees what she is doing here.\nMs. XXXX continues to offer us the opportunity to use Navients Auto Pay system, never wanting to admit that the staff at Navient have previously taken more money from my daughters account than they were supposed to. I suppose she thinks we forgot about that theft, but we have not. We, meaning both my husband and I and my daughter, send payments automatically from our own banks. The payments consistently arrive on time, for the amounts that Navient has directed us in the past to send to them.\nMs. XXXX fails to address the ongoing need for her to go into these accounts every month to fix the monthly misapplication of payments. She carefully constructs her response to avoid the topic of misapplication of monies and to avoid the topic of how this happens every month.\nMs. XXXX also fails to address the problem that historically occurs when she is away from work for a few days, and there is no one to watch/fix the payment application, leading to late fees that then need to be reversed. She put lots of words down, talking about payment due dates, etc. but never addressed the meat of the complaint.\nI feel very very strongly that this needs to be followed up on. I can not continue to deal with this level of incompetence and deceit. I can not continue to have to rely on your agency to get Navient to address their problem. Keep in mind that this has gone on for ten years, and has never been fixed. Ten. Here we are just now learning that somewhere along the line, my daughters payment amount changed and she was not notified. Here we go again, and in the meantime, Ms. XXXX chooses to ignore the issue leading to the complaint. The issue was Navients misapplication of funds to three accounts paid by myself and my husband with more money than required. Strangely, in reviewing statements, I discovered that a number of months ago, it appears I underpaid. I have never been notified of a change in payment.\nWe need a full audit of this account. I asked for this in XXXX, directly to Ms. XXXX, and got no response regarding this. This absolutely must happen, as according to the statements online, we are going to be hitting just principal after this coming months payments, and I can only foresee having problems with this. There is some kind of nefarious behavior happening here, and without an audit, perhaps a forensic audit, this can not be found out.\nI want six separate account numbers, one for each loan. This will remove XXXX ability to mismanage funds or perhaps steal them from us. This will be especially true if we are indeed hitting principal, as they will not be able to tinker with interest payments as a way to divert our payments. If it sounds like I am suggesting that they are stealing from us, believe it, I am. There is something very suspicious going on here.\nI want verification from Navient regarding what I am seeing on the online statement, regarding what is left for interest and principal for each of these loans. I do not and can not trust what is posted online, and perhaps can not trust what Ms. XXXX says either but more documentation is better than less.\nI want a plan in place for her coverage when she is away from work, so someone is responsible for watching these accounts. I want the name and title of that person, as well as their employee ID number.\nSince filing my first XX/XX/2020 complaint, I have downloaded statements and have an email from Ms. XXXX, detailing what I am saying here and showing her admission that the misapplication of funds happened in the loans that my husband and I pay, with more than the required amount of money. Because this remains unresolved, in any way and not at all in accordance to my above wishes, I am filing another complaint with your agency in order to address the lack of a response despite all the pretty words she uses, and continue to pursue an end to this. I look forward to hearing from you.\nRespectfully, XXXX XXXX", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "lender_or_servicer", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3676200", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/7a132ac69964206e1e40", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6318, "company": "Navient Solutions, LLC.", "date_received": "2020-05-30", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "sub_issue_raw": "Trouble with how payments are being handled", "text_sha256": "7a132ac69964206e1e404bacf5a8e1498e6e604a78cb1b3b87bdd85a71d7941c", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "First, I will start with XXXX XXXX .

I have never had an account with this company nor any record of any type of first notice of debt including rights to dispute from this company. And if I, by chance, even though I have no recollection nor tangible record, naively spoke with a representative of this company over the phone about this debt, I was not informed by that representative that I had a right to dispute this debt nor a specific timeframe to do so.\n\n15 USC 1692g 809. Validation of debts ( a ) Notice of debt ; contents states that within five days after the initial communication with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt, a debt collector shall, unless the following information is contained in the initial communication or the consumer has paid the debt, send the consumer a written notice containing ( 3 ) a statement that unless the consumer, within thirty days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector. XXXX XXXX XXXX definition of the word receipt is- a writing acknowledging the receiving of goods or money ; proof, evidence. I never signed nor received any type of acknowledgement receipt from a mailing service for any mail from this company. I am familiar with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). Had I signed a receipt of notice for the proper and legal documentation from this company, I wouldve immediately responded asking for lawful verification of debt or copy of court ordered judgement well within the lawful 30 days allotted. After receiving my response letter with receipt, this company would have to legally cease from collection attempts and remove the account from my credit reports until their proof of verification is sent back to me. This company has reported to my credit reports without observing the FDCPA laws. My credit has been impacted adversely because of this companys irresponsibility.\n\nMy credit reports also show that CARTER-YOUNG INC has provided this alleged account with inaccurate information. The FCRA requires that all data reported from the credit reporting agencies, creditors, or furnishers on a consumer 's report be 100 % ACCURATE, 100 % VERIFIABLE, and 100 % TIMELY. This means no data can be reported that can't be legally PROVEN to be 100 % accurate. I also understand that medical collections under {$500.00}, a paid medical collection, a collection less than a year old, or having a past due balance found on a collection account should not be listed on consumer credit reports. My XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX credit reports all show different and inaccurate open dates, balances, first date of delinquency, balance due, and/or last date of activities for this same exact account.\n\nThis is erroneous and flawed reporting that is listed on my credit reports. Not only did this company not follow lawful FDCPA communications protocol, but it has also broken FDCPA False or Misleading Representations protocol as well. A debt collector, in collecting a debt, may not use any false, deceptive, or misleading representation. Specifically, a debt collector may not falsely represent the character, amount, or legal status of the debt, or of any services rendered, or compensation he or she may receive for collecting the debt. A debt collector may not communicate, or threaten to communicate, false credit information or information that should be known to be false, including not identifying disputed debts as such. Each of my 3 credit reports show different information instead of them all showing the exact same information. This is considered a false and misleading representation that this company has submitted to the credit reporting agencies.\n\nPlease remove this account from my credit reports immediately. It is not my duty to provide evidence that this alleged debt is not mine. It is the obligation of the debt collector to provide evidence that they can lawfully collect on any alleged debt, accurately report to the credit agencies, and follow all FCRA and FDCPA laws.

I am writing to urgently bring to your attention a matter of concern related to a registered security issued to Goldman Sachs for the Apple Card on XX/XX/2024. I had anticipated a prompt and secure handling of associated processes but have encountered issues that require immediate resolution.\n\nIn reviewing the situation, I find it crucial to draw attention to the applicable sections of the Uniform Commercial Code ( UCC ), specifically 3-309, 3-312, and 4-302, outlining the obligations and responsibilities concerning negotiable instruments and payment processing.\n\nAdding to these concerns, 3-603 of the UCC states that if tender of payment of an obligation to pay an instrument is made to a person entitled to enforce the instrument, the effect of tender is governed by principles of law applicable to tender of payment under a simple contract.\n\nFurthermore, if tender of payment is made and refused, 3-603 ( b ) specifies that there is discharge, to the extent of the amount of the tender, of the obligation of an indorser or accommodation party having a right of recourse with respect to the obligation to which the tender relates.\n\nAdditionally, 3-603 ( c ) notes that if tender of payment of an amount due on an instrument is made to a person entitled to enforce the instrument, the obligation of the obligor to pay interest after the due date on the amount tendered is discharged. If presentment is required with respect to an instrument and the obligor is able and ready to pay on the due date at every place of payment stated in the instrument, the obligor is deemed to have made a tender of payment on the due date to the person entitled to enforce the instrument.\n\nRegrettably, the current situation has prompted concerns that may be indicative of a potential securities fraud matter. In the best interest of all parties involved, I urge you to address this issue promptly and rectify any discrepancies. ( b ) Notice of defaults The indenture trustee shall give to the indenture security holders, in the manner and to the extent provided in subsection ( c ) of section 77mmm of this title, notice of all defaults known to the trustee, within ninety days after the occurrence thereof : Provided, That such indenture shall automatically be deemed ( unless it is expressly provided therein that such provision is excluded ) to provide that, except in the case of default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any indenture security, or in the payment of any sinking or purchase fund installment, the trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee, or a trust committee of directors and/or responsible officers, of the trustee in good faith determine that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the indenture security holders.\n\n( c ) Duties of the trustee in case of default The indenture trustee shall exercise in case of default ( as such term is defined in such indenture ) such of the rights and powers vested in it by such indenture, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.\n\n( d ) Responsibility of the trustee The indenture to be qualified shall not contain any provisions relieving the indenture trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that ( 1 ) such indenture shall automatically be deemed ( unless it is expressly provided therein that any such provision is excluded ) to contain the provisions authorized by paragraphs ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) of subsection ( a ) of this section ; ( 2 ) such indenture shall automatically be deemed ( unless it is expressly provided therein that any such provision is excluded ) to contain provisions protecting the indenture trustee from liability for any error of judgment made in good faith by a responsible officer or officers of such trustee, unless it shall be proved that such trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts ; and ( 3 ) such indenture shall automatically be deemed ( unless it is expressly provided therein that any such provision is excluded ) to contain provisions protecting the indenture trustee with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the indenture securities at the time outstanding ( determined as provided in subsection ( a ) of section 77ppp of this title ) relating to the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to such trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon such trustee, under such indenture.\n\nIf this matter is not handled in a timely and satisfactory manner, I may be compelled to escalate this concern to the Securities and Exchange Commission ( SEC ) and FTC. I am hopeful that we can resolve this matter amicably and promptly to avoid any further escalation.\n\nYour immediate attention to this issue is greatly appreciated.\n\nSincerely,", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "card", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"purchase_on_statement": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "fees_or_interest": "Fees or interest", "getting_a_card": "Getting a credit card", "making_payments": "Problem when making payments", "closing_the_account": "Closing your account"}, "label": "making_payments", "src": "cfpb_issue_card"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/8172397", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/3e441c85e3005cec22b6", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5175, "company": "GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA", "date_received": "2024-01-15", "product_raw": "Credit card", "issue_raw": "Problem when making payments", "sub_issue_raw": "Problem during payment process", "text_sha256": "3e441c85e3005cec22b6f0150bfa080752f361b1bf3a34ac298c1a5cfd559295", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Repayment of mXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX loans has been very difficult.

There are no unauthorized third parties in this new complaint. Please see my new personal statement below about the series of events that have led to this unfortunate complaint.\n\nI have several personal student loans that were initially dispersed through Sallie Mae but are now billed with Navient. I have made payments toward lowering my debt as income has allowed me for the past several years. As of XX/XX/XXXX, last year, I was laid off from my position as a XXXX XXXX XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Georgia. I have sought many jobs, unfortunately with no avail on any of them. My passion has always been to become a lawyer and I have been fortunate enough to secure a spot in an entering class this fall. However, in XX/XX/XXXX, after months of unemployment my finances finally began to thin out. I made the last payment I could afford with Navient and have not had many finances available to pay the minimum they were asking for.\n\nIn XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, I called and inquired about paying a lower payment until I could get back on my feet and was told, that wasn't possible as the amount I was paying was already the lowest they were willing to accommodate. Fast forward to XX/XX/XXXX, and I received a call from XXXX, who I have worked with several times before to rectify billing issues with Navient. I explained to her that I would be enrolling into law school in XX/XX/XXXX, at which time she informed me that I in fact had some in school deferment that could be used as long as I was enrolled full time. Furthermore, she explained that there was nothing that could be done until I could receive enrollment information from the school. At this time, I agreed that I would call her upon receiving that information. She agreed, and we ended the call.\n\nNow on XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXX XXXX I missed a called from someone only identified as XXXX. XXXX left a voicemail in which he stated that he \" had an uncanny way of helping everyone '' and that it was imperative that he speak to me as soon as possible. I woke up from my nap and gave him a call back at ( XXXX ) XXXX on a recorded line, initially he seemed like a decent customer service representative, as I explained to him my circumstance and how the situation with the loan had gotten to this current point. He asked me If there was anyone who would be willing to help me and if anyone was helping with any other bills of mine. He went on to see if there was a consigner on my account, which there is not. When I stated no there wasn't anyone willing to help me, he then became confrontational. He obviously somehow has access to my credit report because he started talking about how I had excessive amounts of medical bills that were also unpaid. He went on to further state that he didn't see any car payments, so he assumed I didn't have a car note. He asked if I had a card with XXXX, which is my credit union and that the bill was {$15000.00} and stated that he noticed that it got paid on time every month. He went on to ask why was it that I could pay my credit card bill and not Navient. At this point of conversation, I felt harassed and violated.\n\nI should not have to deal with someone reprimanding me, making assumptions and accusations about my personal finances, if they are calling about a matter that has nothing to do with said finances. My liberties as a consumer were not upheld with Navient and I want action taken immediately. Someone calling from Navient for student loan billing, should NOT have access to my credit report for the purposes of harassing me about what I do and don't pay to other creditors. I feel that my rights as a consumer have been violated, whether I have an outstanding debt with this company or not. It is illegal for anyone to have reoccurring access to my credit, more so my credit profile without my permission. If it were up to me I would have my debt transferred to a different servicer or completely forgiven, as I do not feel secure in knowing Navient has access to my personal information for the purposes of harassment yet are able to mask it as debt collection. I would like the immediate termination of XXXX, whose alleged work ID is XXXX and his manager, XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), who saw no problem with his employee 's behavior and was just as unprofessional on our follow up phone call. I would like a response from a board member of Navient after they review the call or else I will seek legal representation in remedying this matter.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "lender_or_servicer", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/2985581", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/b171b23c75208f0b1e3e", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4646, "company": "Navient Solutions, LLC.", "date_received": "2018-08-08", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "sub_issue_raw": "Problem with customer service", "text_sha256": "b171b23c75208f0b1e3e5e916da02a4e5e4b4dcd3b36f1e2fbe2bcf872e867b2", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I had two checking accounts with Wells Fargo Bank. Starting in XXXX and carrying over into XXXX I had several fraudulent charges and/or ATM debit card withdrawals from one or both of my checking accounts. The accounts are XXXX and XXXX. The majority of fraudulent transactions occurred on the account ending in XXXX. I started reporting and seeking reimbursement in XX/XX/XXXX. The reason I didnt report within 24-48 hours was because of the abusive situation I was in. There were several factors : I didnt know the fraud was happening, I didnt have access to online banking at the time, my mental and physical health was compromised and I was unable to act in a rational or timely manner, and I didnt know how to handle all of the fraud of credit cards, bank accounts, and fraud with ISP, mobile carriers etc. I was overwhelmed and had to address each component separately and thoroughly. I got approximately 50 % of the money returned from Wells Fargo. I have had to deal with rude and condescending people on the phone who would ask me questions like why did so much fraud happen? How can you be telling the truth this is too much fraud? I have had Wells Fargo deny many claims saying a PIN number was used therefore it is not fraud. I would like to ask the following question : if my PIN number was used without my knowledge or consent, and money was taken from my account, isnt that fraud? My PIN number was the same on every single card I owned. Secondly, the man who did the fraud told me that he used my fingerprint to open my I Phone when I was asleep, to access PIN numbers and personal information in order to access cards and bank accounts. He is a criminal and should be punished for these crimes. However, Wells Fargo holds me accountable and refused to reimburse me for transactions that were done by someone else. They called me in the summer and said I was a fraud risk and they were closing both of my accounts. I said thats great, this should have been done months ago. In addition the XXXX account was opened in XX/XX/XXXX. At that time I wanted to close XXXX but Wells Fargo said I could not or they would not refund the fraud transactions. Why? If we had closed that account we could have stopped some of the fraud. Yesterday I received a packet in the mail stating that XXXX was still open. Why am I receiving contradictory information? In the summer I was told it was closed, now I find out it was open. I am in the negative for this account, I anticipated a claim being reimbursed for fraud and withdrew money. I accidentally overdrew my account. Once the claim was denied my account was in the negative. I complained to the FDIC and To Wells Fargo many times. If I am insured by FDIC, why is Wells Fargo not reimbursing the funds that were taken fraudulently? Why are they assuming that a PIN number used denotes no fraud? Why have they consistently denied claims? Have they ever talked to law enforcement or the states attorney to understand that what I am saying is true? They rely on a fraud department that has a limited scope of the situation and makes determinations based on a few parameters. They find ways to deny helping a customer. Prior to XXXX, I never had fraud. I never came to Wells Fargo and requested anything.i do not have a history of these claims. The bank manager XXXX and XXXX XXXX at the branch on XXXX XXXX know me and can vouch for me. I came to Wells Fargo with a problem, they gave me additional stress, anguish, frustration, pain and compounded the problem. I have spent upwards of 3 hours at a time on the phone with their agents solving one or two claims. I finally gave up. I lost 50 pounds and my health deteriorated further from the interaction with Wells Fargo. I am deeply disappointed and frustrated with the way they have handled my claims.they sent me a packet of information in XXXX detailing why they dont see fraud on the checking account ending inXXXX. They said they had an investigation done by an independent third party service. What do they want me to do? I have submitted paperwork of identity theft, police reports, court cases. I cant submit anything else. If a customer is willing to submit any paperwork, proof, details to get court transcripts, etc, they are being transparent and honest. Wells Fargo just refuses to do the right thing. I am not Surprised. They have a history of fraudulent practices. They have been fined before and within three years did the same thing again. They sent me a check for {$270.00} as appreciation. That doesnt cover the majority of fraudulent transactions that they denied.

I went to view the account online via USCB America on XX/XX/year>. I was asked to provide the reference / record ID, Date of Birth and ZIP Code. Upon entering this information 2 records were pulled up to view. Both had the same account #. However, there were 2 different patients names. Mine and another name I was unaware of. It listed a total due for me of {$870.00} on the top line and a total due for the other person on the next line of {$1800.00}. The bottom line showed the Total Payment of {$2700.00} which was the total of both amounts due. Once I saw this I decided to call USCB America.\nI called USCB America and spoke with a Collection Specialist. I immediately advised the collector that Im aware of the {$870.00}, however, the {$1800.00} thats listed is not mine. She said ok and placed me on hold. A few minutes later she came back on the line and asked if I wanted to pay the full balance or make payments. She didnt advise me that the accounts were being separated and I only owed the {$870.00}. Instead she asked for the balance or payments.\nAt this point she is attempting to collect a balance she knows I dont owe. I said I was calling to discuss a XXXX or payment arrangements. I advised her that I believe they have violated the FDCPA. I advised her that I was able to view the other patients protected health information ( PHI ) simply by clicking on the account number that he and I share. I at that point did a Screen capture of their online system. It shows both accounts with same account # tied together and a total payment amount of the 2 accounts combined. I then clicked on both account # s and saved each to my phone. I went as far as telling the collector the other patients name, address, original client and amount owed to prove that I was able to see that information. I then told her that if Im able to see his information he is able too see my information. Im not sure if he has seen my information but Im certain that I saw his. Thats a FDCPA violation. Collectors are unable to release my information to anyone other than myself, my spouse, my attorney, etc. At that time she placed me on hold again.\nA few minutes later a man, I believe is a Supervisor, added on to the call. He immediately advised me of the mini-miranda. He then stated he was made aware of the situation on the account and will be forwarding the account to the Legal Department. He did not explain why the account was being forwarded to the Legal Department, nor did he advise me the accounts will be separated and did not advise me of the balance that I owe. So, I assumed I was going to be sued for the total payment of {$2700.00}. When I heard this, I told the Supervisor that I would like him to inform the Legal Department what I would like to happen. I would like my account and the other patients account taken care of in full, I would like a letter sent to myself and the other patient with an explanation of how this happened and how they plan to handle the matter and I would like myself and the other patient given a fair and reasonable monetary compensation for the FDCPA violations their company committed. I asked for a reply from them by the following Friday, XX/XX/year> at XXXX. I also advised if I dont hear from them I will be filing this complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and contacting a Lawyer that handles FDCPA Violations. He said he will note the account and make the Legal Department aware of my requests and ended the call.\nAbout 20 minutes later, the same Supervisor/ man contacted me back and said the Legal Department wanted to know if he could get my email address. After asking for my email he advised me of the mini-miranda. I gave him my email and he ended the call.\nAs of XX/XX/year>, at XXXX, I had not received any correspondence from USBC America or their Legal Department . Therefore, on Monday I began taking the steps I had advised the Supervisor/man I would be taking if I had not heard from them. Today I consulted a Attorneys office that deals with FDCPA Violations. I have not retained their services at this time. I am filing this complaint with the CFPB. I may also be filing a complaint with the Attornys Generals Office of Kentucky, the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) in Kentucky and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ).

Both amounts were on hold pending my verification. As soon as I would confirm that I was not the sender, CITI would return ( via wire ) the amounts back to my account He also indicated that he needed to deactivate my online banking and reinstate it.

It never occurred to me that both the call and the SMS were fake. In addition, I dont use CITI much and in my account was only {$300.00}. I simply forgot that I have a {$10000.00} line of credit ( overdraft ) Next, I received a new SMS asking me whether I was trying to send a wire of {$7500.00}.\nI told the agent that I wasnt sending any wire, but he assured me that it was CITI sending the money back to me. As such, I responded XXXX ( yes ) When we were done, he asked me not to log in into online banking for XXXX hours After I hung up, I became suspicious and did logged in to my account. At that time, I realized he used my overdraft line of credit of {$10000.00} to transfer {$2500.00} and {$7500.00} to my account and then wire them out. My account had the same balance but now I owed {$10000.00}.\nI called immediately CITI FRAUD and explained the whole story. The agent ( LIA ) explained that XXXX wire ( {$2500.00} ) was not processed but the other wire ( {$7500.00} ) was processed to a recipient named XXXX XXXX She confirmed from me the wire was fraudulent. She also said that I should call CITI Wires to make a recall I immediately called CITI WIRES. The agent ( XXXX ) put a recall request but mentioned that the recall depended on the beneficiary bank.

institution that I found several violations in our retail installment agreement from the consumer credit transaction that took place at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX dealership on ( XX/XX/XXXX ), where I obtained my vehicle ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). Due to the violations I found, I included in my notice sent that I am exercising my right to rescind our agreement pursuant to 15USC1635. This section of the law states I have 3 days from the date of the transaction and 3 years after the transaction to exercise my right to rescind. After I sent you my notice of rescission, I tendered the property obtained during this credit transaction to Ally Financial from the dates of ( XX/XX/XXXX ) - ( XX/XX/XXXX ) at my physical address located at ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX ). Ally Financial never provided my rescission disclosures that are mandatory under Truth In Lending or came to pick up the property tendered.Today, ( XX/XX/XXXX ), a third party company, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX, took nonjudicial action and stole my property without a court order, which is a violation of 15USC1692f. In my notice, I also exercised my nondisclosure option pursuant to 15USC6802 ( B ) that was not provided to me by your financial institution at the date of this consumer credit transaction. Ally Financial had no right to disclose my personal information to anyone. Under Article 8 of the UCC, The vehicle obtained through this consumer credit transaction was paid for in full with my finance application, which you also failed disclose before the retail installment agreement was initially signed. The total cost of the property obtained, shown in our agreement is {$33000.00} that I never received from Ally Financial. Since ( XX/XX/XXXX ), I paid Ally Financial a total of {$3400.00} in cash transactions under advertisement of false information by your company when my signature and social security paid off the full amount. According to 15USC1611 Criminal Liability for willful and knowing violation ; Whoever willfully and knowingly ( 1 ) gives false or inaccurate information or fails to provide information which he is required to disclose under the provisions of this subchapter or any regulation issued thereunder, ( 2 ) uses any chart or table authorized by the Bureau under section 1606 of this title in such a manner as to consistently understate theannual percentage rate determined under section 1606 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) of this title, or ( 3 ) otherwise fails to comply with any requirement imposed under this subchapter, shall be fined not more than {$5000.00} or imprisoned not more than one year, or both. Pursuant to this section, Ally Financial failed to disclose that your financial institution made me a third party to an investment contract on the date of this transaction ( XX/XX/XXXX ). Ally Financial also failed to disclose my right to rescission pursuant to 15USC1635 at the date of this transaction and the interest your company profited off my security instrument without my knowledge or authorization.I am the original creditor in this credit transaction and according to Congress, Ally Financial or any financial institution shall not breach written agreements, use false and misleading advertisement and act without written authorization or the alleged borrowers knowledge, to transfer actual cash value from the alleged borrower to the bank, and then return it back as a loan while collecting interest. As shown in our original agreement, the cash transaction or downpayment of {$1000.00} was required by the car dealership XXXX in this consumer credit transaction which is a violation of 15USC 1662 ( 2 ) ; 15USC1605 ( c ) and 15USC1611 for advertising false information to a consumer when a finance charge does not include any cash transactions, but the sum of all charges for the property. According to 15USC1692 F - A debt collector may not use unfair or unconscionable means to collect or attempt to collect any debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct is a violation of this section : ( 6 ) Taking or threatening to take any nonjudicial action to effect dispossession or disablement of property if ( A ) there is no present right to possession of the property claimed as collateral through an enforceable security interest ; ( B ) there is no present intention to take possession of the property ; or ( C ) the property is exempt by law from such dispossession or disablement. My property obtained in this transaction, that my signature paid for in full on ( XX/XX/XXXX ), was stolen from me by a third party company named XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX due to the actions your financial institution took to violate my rights. Pursuant to 15USC 1635 ( B ) RETURN OF MONEY OR PROPERTY FOLLOWING RESCISSION Ally Financial was given 20 days from my Rescission Notice sent on ( XX/XX/XXXX ) to pick up the tendered property from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and failed to get the property. The law clearly states that ownership of the property now vests in the obligor without any obligation on my part to pay for it. Your violations listed in my original rescission notice sent on ( XX/XX/XXXX ), with the laws referenced, void our agreement and I revoked my signature on agreement your company may have on file. Since my property was stolen from me by a third party, I am hereby, demanding the title of the vehicle and the original instrument of indebtedness from Ally Financial, as I am the rightful holder.

How it assesses that risk is a mystery. In its User Agreement under \" Holds, Limitations, and Reserves '', PayPal states : \" We may place a hold on payments sent to your PayPal account if, in our sole discretion, we believe that there may be a high level of risk associated with you, your PayPal account, or your transactions .... We make decisions about whether to place a payment hold based on a number of factors, including information available to us from both internal sources and third parties. '' Here is how it is done : Based on its risk assessment, PayPal decides on a maximum amount that may be paid into an account by an account-owner 's customer. Any amount over this maximum is seized and impounded for 21 days. While it is impounded, Paypal uses the money for its own account, as it admits in its User Agreement : \" PayPal ... combines your PayPal funds with the PayPal funds of other PayPal users and invests those funds in liquid investments .... PayPal owns the interest or other earnings on these investments. '' How is the risk determined? We don't know. PayPal indicates three factors it considers : - New sellers or sellers who have limited selling activity.\n\n- Payments for higher-risk categories like electronics or tickets.\n\n- Sellers who have performance issues, or a high rate of buyer dissatisfaction or disputes.\n\nBut other factors play a part. PayPal identifies these factors only as \" ... confidential criteria that are essential to our management of risk and the protection of PayPal, our customers and/or service providers. We may use proprietary fraud and risk modeling when assessing the risk associated with your PayPal account. '' I am a XXXX XXXX, not a high risk seller of electronics or tickets. I have been with PayPal for XXXX decades, so I am not a new seller with \" limited selling activity. '' I have never had a dispute with a customer that affected PayPal in any way in my entire history of dealing with PayPal.\n\nSo, if PayPal identified the complainant as involved in a \" high risk '' transaction, they there is an obvious problem with the criteria by which PayPal assesses risk, whatever that secret criteria may be.\n\nPayPal places the funds limit restriction of a user 's account without notice to the user or an opportunity to appeal the limit. The first time a user finds out that a funds limits has been imposed is when his funds have already been impounded. Then and only then does PayPal reveal that there is a funds limit and the amount of that limit.\n\nIn my case, the funds limit was {$5000.00} received in any one month. ( The term \" month '' is not defined or explained. I don't know if it measn a calendar month, an arbitrary 30-day period or some other period. ) I found out about it only after PayPal had seized and impounded nearly {$1000.00}.\n\nI use that money to pay subcontractors and vendors, so not having access to the sequestered funds can be a real burden, virtually ensuring that at least some of my payments will be late.\n\nHad I known about the {$5000.00} funds limit in advance, I would have made arrangements for payment other than PayPal. My bank uses XXXX which is cheaper than PayPal although a little more trouble to use.\n\nThe only option that PayPal gives me now is to go back to my customer and ask him to confirm to PayPal that the work he paid for is done and done satisfactorily. If I do this, PayPal says it will release the Impounded funds.\n\nOf course this request would immediately suggest to my customer that sometimes my work is not done or not done satisfactorily, otherwise why would PayPal be asking for such confirmation? This is not the sort of notion I wish to suggest to my customer, so I will not do anything so incredibly stupid.\n\nI respect the fact that PayPal needs to protect itself from unscrupulous users whose actions may costs PayPal money, but the company should do it the right way.\n\nFirst, it should notify users when a funds limit is placed on the user 's account and explain why it is being imposed. Not some general statement like \" we have determined that you may be a risk '', but the specific risk factors that lead to its decision.\n\nSecond, PayPal should institute an appeals process that permits a user to dispute the funds limit and provide information possibly unknown to PayPal that would suggest there is no substantial risk. No such process now exists.\n\nThe only option PayPal now offers is requesting that the funds limit be raised -- not removed -- just raised. I tried that and it does not work. I never heard back from PayPal regarding my request for a raise.\n\nThird, if PayPal is going to impound and use my money for its own account, it should be paying me interest on the impounded funds.\n\nWhen I asked for specifics about why a limitation was placed on my account since I have none of the risk factors identified by PayPal, a spokesperson for the company informed me that despite the absence of such factors, there was still the \" possibility '' of a problem with the transaction.\n\nOf course, there is a possibility. There is always a \" possibility. '' And if the true criteria is that there is may be \" possibility '' of a risk, then all PayPal user accounts should be funds-limited. They all have the \" possibility '' of risk.\n\nI will keep my PayPal account. It's handy for buying stuff from XXXX and the like, but I will NEVER AGAIN take a customer payment through the company. I get a better deal from XXXX with no possibility of a funds impoundment without prior notice.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "money_transfer", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/5657639", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/77d0ae6fc5f3bf965a8a", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6258, "company": "Paypal Holdings, Inc", "date_received": "2022-06-10", "product_raw": "Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service", "issue_raw": "Managing, opening, or closing your mobile wallet account", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "77d0ae6fc5f3bf965a8a70c9b79f09f14803233eed1274c33c02131ced43f8f5", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "PER 15 US CODE 1681 ( b ) ( 2 ), 15 US CODE 1681 ( a ) ( 1 ), 15 USE CODE 1681 ( C-2 ), 15 US CODE 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( a ) ( i ) these accounts need to be removed asap.\n\nOnce again per statues above this account needs to be removed asap THIS ACCOUNT DOES BELONG ON MY CREDIT REPORT REMOVE FROM ALL CREDIT REPORTING ASAP THIS ACCOUNT WAS ONCE REMOVED BEFORE AND NOW APPEARS UNDER A NEW COMPANY NAME BUT FROM SAME COMPANY THIS IS A CFPB VIOLATIONA AND THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO PAY {$100.00} FINE PER MONTH THIS ACCOUNT HAS BEEN REPORTED SINCE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE REMOVED.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "credit_reporting", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"incorrect_information": "Incorrect information on your report", "improper_use": "Improper use of your report", "investigation": "Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem", "unable_to_get_report": "Unable to get your credit report or credit score", "fraud_alerts_or_freezes": "Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes"}, "label": "incorrect_information", "src": "cfpb_issue_credit_reporting"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/8765318", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/6aa3a4659726b2d575f5", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "short", "chars": 570, "company": "Experian Information Solutions Inc.", "date_received": "2024-04-14", "product_raw": "Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports", "issue_raw": "Incorrect information on your report", "sub_issue_raw": "Information belongs to someone else", "text_sha256": "6aa3a4659726b2d575f56375d3c107ecefee194812837662f7a8c3d21e98d615", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Dear XXXX XXXX, ( CC : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, IL Attorney General, XXXX, Department of Justice ) This letter is being sent to you in response to your XX/XX/XXXX Debt Collection attempt on the debt I purportedly owe to XXXX. Be advised that this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) that your claim is disputed and validation is requested.\n\nThis is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above named Title and Section. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you.\n\nPlease provide me with the following : What the money you say I owe is for ; Explain and show me how you calculated what you say I owe ; Provide me with copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay what you say I owe ; provide me a proof of purchase of my debt, if any, as required under UCC 203 Art. 9 ; or explain based on which authority you can collect from me. Please provide me a copy of retainer and a confirmation sale of my purported debt to MB & W by XXXX. Show me that you are licensed to collect in my state Provide me with your license numbers and Registered Agent.\n\nPlease be further advised that on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I demanded XXXX to validate this debt due to my concerns of identity theft and unjust enrichment by XXXX.\n\nBased on recent report from the Senate, XXXX is engaged in the wide-crime spree which caused reasonable concerns how XXXX uses my personal information ; who collects the debt IF this debt exists. I also suspect that XXXX uses my identity to back their bogus derivatives/credit default swaps to obtain unjust enrichment in the amount of 15-20 times more that my debt. It is not a secret that Big Banks sell securitized borrowers personal information without borrowers knowledge and consent to receive enormous profits in average 12-15 times more than the amount XXXX PAYS to obtain an intangible license to sell derivatives masqueraded as a credit card debt. It creates a contract for SERVICES provided by ME to XXXX ( such as issue a Promissory Note ) which XXXX used in their securitization scheme where I am entitled for royalties from all trades as XXXX XXXX.\n\nPlease note that only a creditor or a lawful assignee of the creditor can collect a debt. The creditor is by definition the party who claims to own the debt. If they own the debt then they are reporting the debt as an asset receivable on their accounting records. Since investors do NOT buy debts, but merely buy certificates backed by information about the debt, there is no party anywhere that is a creditor. If there is no creditor, there can be no debt, because there is nobody entitled to receive payment.\n\nPlease explain based on which evidence you concluded that I owe anything to XXXX and not XXXX owes to me a part of profits they received from trading my personal data on the open market without my knowledge and consent, no need without fair compensation. Based on my estimate, XXXX received at least {$22000.00} revenue by selling my securitized data to investors who are NOT my creditors ; while only retuned me {$1500.00} as a one-time payment for issuing a Promissory Note based on which XXXX sells their derivatives and other unregulated securities. Please be informed that I demand royalties, no less than 20 %, from ALL sales of profits from securities backed by my name and signature, no less than {$4500.00} ( minus {$1500.00} would be {$3000.00} owed to me by XXXX ).\nPlease provide me evidence if my Promissory Note as Appeared on the Application for the Credit was processed by XXXX in accordance with GAAP. Was it placed as a receivable to XXXX account to generate profits? If yes, please state how much profits were generated by using my signature on the Application as an ASSET on XXXX balance sheets. Please explain me how the cash earlier credited is now deposited. Is this a debit to cash and a credit to a bank liability like a checking account or demand deposit account or savings account. Is it treated as a new ASSET on the XXXX balance sheets? Is this new ASSET came from me, as a borrower, thus XXXX owes me a liability related to this new asset? Please provide me the proof where was my Promissory Note ( application to buy a credit card ) recorded by XXXX Please state if my promissory Note was securitized and sold to investors for cash and how much profits XXXX received by trading on my name, signature and reputation on the open markets. Please send me a document where it said that I allowed XXXX to use my name, signature and reputation to trade on the open market as a security to generate profits. XXXX got my Promissory Note/Application for Credit for free and I suspect that is was used as an asset to generate massive profits by trading on my name, which equates to identity theft ; swindling and counterfeiting.\n\nI respectfully request to validate for me this debt and provide me adequate assurance that my promissory Note was properly recorded in XXXX bookkeeping ; disclose if my application was used as a guarantee for any trades ; the amount of profits received from trades ; and a copy of the document where these transactions were explained to me and I gave my permission to these trades. Once XXXX provide me a full validation of Debt and Adequate Assurance, I will send you the next payment. This is not a refusal to pay but the request to validate the Debt At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have reported invalidated information to any of the 3 major Credit Bureaus ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) this action might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found on any of my credit reports by your company or the company that you represent I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you for the following : Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ; Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ; Defamation of Character.\n\nIf your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following Declaration, I will require at least 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist.\n\nAlso during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing any information to a credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated or verifying an account as accurate when in fact there is no provided proof that it is.\n\nIf your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately.\n\nI would also like to request, in writing, that no telephone contact be made by your offices to my home or to my place of employment. If your offices attempt telephone communication with me, including but not limited to computer generated calls and calls or correspondence sent to or with any third parties, it will be considered harassment and I will have no choice but to file suit. All future communications with me MUST be done in writing and sent to the address noted in this letter by USPS.\n\nIt would be advisable that you assure that your records are in order before I am forced to take legal action. This is an attempt to correct your records, any information obtained shall be used for that purpose.\n\nBest Regards, XXXX XXXX", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "debt_collection", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3716853", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/abdd63d284d897fa4baa", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 7720, "company": "McCarthy, Burgess & Wolff, Inc.", "date_received": "2020-06-25", "product_raw": "Debt collection", "issue_raw": "Attempts to collect debt not owed", "sub_issue_raw": "Debt was result of identity theft", "text_sha256": "abdd63d284d897fa4baa132869a75471441f97ab881d9e29becd4a4157ec6c3e", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Recently, I researched my credit report, which resulted in tremendous despair.

XXXX XXXX, The creditor, has failed to give me proper notice of this billing error several times. I have noticed every account statement is in invoice of indebtedness, also having a coupon/check attached to it. On this invoice the creditor is attempting to collect a debt that has already been paid. They claim that this is a debt that I owe. How is that possible if the amount that theyre asking for isnt a negative balance? And how is it possible that this debt is still owed when my signature on my application is payment of the debt? They have took negative action furnishing this negative account on my consumer report with the credit bureaus without my permission and consent. I have asked multiple time nicely for them to fix this issue and they claim the bureaus were working on it. However its has been way longer than expected and every time I call them they act delirious and ignorant to what I have been asking them I, XXXX XXXX ( the obligor and consumer ) I am giving proper notice of this billing error. This is my final attempt to clear and dismiss of any debt that the creditor claims that I owe. According to 15 USC 1666b timing of payments states A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.\n\nThe creditor has failed several times to provide me ( the consumer/obligor ) with each periodic statement and information required by section 1637 ( b ) of title 15 USC 1666b . The creditor has not gave me proper notice within 21 days of the payment due date as required by 15 USC 1666b.\n\nWhat is a late payment? And how can that payment be late or past due if it is not a negative balance? How can a late, missed, or past due balance exist if my signature on my application for credit is payment of the debt? According to 15 USC 1666d Treatment of credit balances States Whenever a credit balance in excess of {$1.00} is created in connection with a consumer credit transaction through ( 1 ) transmittal of funds to a creditorin excess of the total balance due on an account, ( 2 ) rebates of unearned finance charges or insurance premiums, or ( 3 ) amounts otherwise owed to or held for the benefit of an obligor, the creditor shall ( A ) credit the amount of the credit balance to the consumers account ; ( B ) refund any part of the amount of the remaining credit balance, upon request of the consumer ; and ( C ) make a good faith effort to refund to the consumer by cash, check, or money order any part of the amount of the credit balance remaining in the account for more than six months, except that no further action is required in any case in which the consumers current location is not known by the creditor and can not be traced through the consumers last known address or telephone number.\nEvery account statement has failed to demonstrate indebtedness. For example if I borrow {$20000.00} shouldnt my account statement show a negative XXXX XXXXXXXX? And every time I make a payment it would reduce that amount bringing the negative balance closer to {$0.00}?\nNone of the account statements show a negative balance, only a positive balance. According to the law a positive balance means that there is a surplus. This debt that the creditor claims I owe does not belong to me. According to 18 USC section 8 Obligation or other security of the United States defined States The term obligation or other security of the United States includes all bonds, certificates of indebtedness, national bank currency , Federal Reserve notes, Federal Reserve bank notes, coupons, United States notes, Treasury notes, gold certificates, silver certificates, fractional notes, certificates of deposit, bills, checks, or drafts for money, drawn by or upon authorized officers of the United States, stamps and other representatives of value, of whatever denomination, issued under any Act of Congress, and canceledUnited States stamps.\n\nAll debts public and private are the obligation of the United States. The creditor claims that I owe/owed this debt but what exactly am I paying for if the debt has already been paid for with my signature? The obligation has already been paid for. So why are they claiming that I owe/owed this debt? This billing error notice is also a notice of request for refund by I, XXXX XXXX ( the consumer/obligor ) .According to 15 USC 1666d section A, section B, section C, States A ) credit the amount of the credit balance to the consumers account ; ( B ) refund any part of the amount of the remaining credit balance, upon request of the consumer ; and ( C ) make a good faith effort to refund to the consumer by cash, check, or money order any part of the amount of the credit balance remaining in the account for more than six months, except that no further action is required in any case in which the consumers current location is not known by the creditor and can not be traced through the consumers last known address or telephone number.\nI am now requesting a refund of ALL payment paid AND dismissal and discharge of this debt. I XXXX XXXX ( the consumer/obligor ) I am also requesting that the accounts be ceased and desist IMMEDIATELY. I have blindly paid this debt twice. The creditor has fraudulently and illegally double dipped on payment of this debt. The creditor has furnished I, XXXX XXXX ( the consumer/obligor ) with deceptive forms several times ( See attachment A ) creating a false belief that I owe this debt. According to 15 USC 1692J Furnishing certain deceptive forms States The creditor has been racketeering and extorting money out of I, XXXX XXXX the consumer/obligor ) several times. This is totally illegal and they could go to jail for this. According to 18 USC 1961 Definitions States However, I am willing to overlook this matter AS LONG AS ALL of my request are resolved AND completed within 10 days of receiving this notice. If my request or not resolved AND completed within the given time frame above, I will take this to higher authorities. The creditor now has 10 days within receiving this notice to refund me, clear/dismiss the debt, and cease and desist of the account.\n\nKind Regards, XXXX XXXX", "questions": {"issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"debt_not_owed": "Attempts to collect debt not owed", "written_notification": "Written notification about debt", "false_statements": "False statements or representation", "communication_tactics": "Communication tactics", "negative_or_legal_action": "Took or threatened to take negative or legal action"}, "label": "debt_not_owed", "src": "cfpb_issue_debt_collection"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/5989675", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/089ae27651f55bbdc276", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6555, "company": "CCS Financial Services, Inc.", "date_received": "2022-09-16", "product_raw": "Debt collection", "issue_raw": "Took or threatened to take negative or legal action", "sub_issue_raw": "Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged", "text_sha256": "089ae27651f55bbdc276df9a8031cfc88fadc7df9f9814e345d2150b698d2526", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "To whom It May Concern - I have used Venmo to transfer money to family and friends - only three individuals.\n\nLast Tuesday on XX/XX/2022, a old friend was without funds while waiting for a reverse mortgage was in need of money, so I attempted to transfer {$200.00} to her email address. Her email address is \" XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ''. I sent it to \" XXXX ''.\nwhen I realized my mistake, I searched online for a Customer Support phone number to rectify the situation. The number I called was XXXX XXXX.\nOn this call, I first got the same preliminary recorded message that I got when I called them back yesterday when I noticed all the debits from my account.\n\nthe person on the other end of the conversation asked to remotely join me on my phone. They first said they needed to verify who I was. They asked for me to send someone I knew some money and then have them return it.\nOf the three individuals that I have used Venmo with before ( two are my offspring and one is my daughter 's boyfriend ), my daughter and son both work during the day and my daughter 's boyfriend works at night and was sleeping.\nThey insisted that I text my son and wait for a response. then they asked me to try the others. I said that I did not want to do that and disturb them while they were working or sleeping. but they told me to try anyway.\nI finally got a response from my son and I transferred money to him. He texted me that he saw the transfer, and transferred it back.\nThey individual on the phone asked me to try someone else in order to further verify who I was. So I tried my daughter 's boyfriend but he did not respond.\nSo the next request was to send money to addresses of people I did not know and to type in the message the word \" Verify ''. I did this. Then they requested that I try several other addresses of people that I did not know.\nAfter a while, all the money in my account was depleted and the requests were refused by the bank.\nAfter that, they asked me if I had other accounts I could use. I have credit cards with several large banks such as XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX, but no bank accounts. They tried to get funds from those accounts but were refused.\nthen I was transferred to the \" business department ''. this guy said that they were going to give me a Business credit card. and again he tried my credit cards. I told him I was not interested in a credit card, so he gave me what was supposed to be his name - XXXX XXXX and said he would call me back at XXXX XXXX since I needed to get back to work.\n\nBecause they were remotely viewing my actions, I could also see the responses on my phone. They were directing me as to what symbols, words, etc... to write or tap, but all this was directed move be move be them. I was doing this from my car because I was working in the field that day, and could see the phone number on my digital read out screen.\n\nAt one point, we were disconnected. I got a call back from a phone number in XXXX XXXX. That number is XXXX.\n\nMy call must have been hacked or transferred to someone within their company who is taking advantage of the supposed support that customers are supposed to receive. I called the same phone number that is shown on Venmo 's website, After I saw that none of the people whom I did not know were not yet showing on my Venmo account, I called Venmo again at the same number and the response was that I should have emailed them. I asked to speak to a supervisor of the agent I was talking to and at first, he said that was impossible. when I insisted, he finally put me through to another individual who said something to the effect of \" You know how it is these days, everything can get hacked! '' He could see all the transfers and named them off to me.\n\nI have lodged a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and gave them all this information. I mentioned that if they called the New York phone number right away, they might catch these people. I did receive an email back form them that I had lodged this complain.\n\nI am contacting you because I myself and other friends have gotten satisfaction through your efforts.\n\nVenmo is owned by Pay Pal and they have protection for this kind of fraud.

I then informed the representative that I have a direct deposit coming from the IRS for my text refund and I wanted to know if that deposit will be rejected or it would be deposited they informed me that deposit will not be rejected. She then stated that I may call back on the XXXX and they will unrestricted count as a one time courtesy for me to withdraw funds because my ATM debit card is still active. I then proceeded to ask how much am I able to withdraw she then told me that she does not know the ATM withdrawal limit so she put me on a brief hold and she then told me that I am able to take up to {$2000.00} out at the ATM On XX/XX/2023 I called the account security department for them to on in restrict the account for me to withdraw funds The representative XXXX proceeded to tell me that I am unable to withdraw funds for up to {$2000.00} because there are pending claims on my account. He didnt put me on a brief hold for about 20 minutes and came back to tell me that I am only allowed to withdraw up to {$270.00} because the Claims I mailed it to {$3300.00}, I told him that I do not owe Capital One money because those claims have not yet been settled. He then told me that he can not unrestricted the account for me to withdraw any of those funds because of the claims on the account now from my understanding unless you owe money to Capital One, they can not restrict you from getting your funds out of the account. Yes, I received temporary credits for the Claims, but the claims are still pending research so I do not. oh, any money to them which they stated they will not close my account they just have my account restricted. I then proceeded to state their policy to XXXX, but he will not listen to me, and will not on restrict my account for me to withdraw funds in their policy. If my account is closed or theyre ending the banking relationship, they have to mail any remaining funds to me as a check or transfer those funds to my external account. If I do not owe any money if I do owe money, they will take the money from those claims that have been settled and then mail me a check of the remaining funds or send it to my external bank account. As of right now I do not owe Capital One any money and they are holding my funds and not closing my account out until the Claims have been resolved none of the Claims have been resolved they are all pending. I then stated to XXXX while Im in distress crying to the representative XXXX that please do not take all of my money. I even stated the policy and I also stated in the email I received when I filed the claim it states If your account is closed during the investigation, we reserve the right to reopen it to remove the temporary credit depending on the result of our investigation. If your account balance becomes negative because of this action, you'll be responsible for the balance.\nWe may contact you if we need additional info and we'll be in touch with the outcome of our investigation. when I read that back to XXXX, he did not acknowledge that he proceeded to then tell me that he is not unrestricting the account for the full amount. I am only allowed to unrestricted for {$270.00} and that is it so he then unrestricted the account I took out XXXX Ive been proceeded to call back to speak with someone different. because the previous representative XXXX upset me to the point where he had me crying over the phone. I even filed a complaint with Capital One about that representative. XXXX Then also unrestricted the account for me to take out {$400.00} which I did and then they put the restriction back on there. I also stated their policy and the email I received when I filed a claim and they still ignored it. I then proceeded to ask for a manager so they put me through to a manager. Her name was XXXX. She then was very biased against me.

I have my social security check directly deposited monthy since XXXX. In early XX/XX/XXXX bank of america sent me a text regarding suspicious activity on my account. There was fraud being committed.by a person in XXXX Georgia. I advised the representative that this was not me making this transaction. There was 3 or 4 more faudulant transactions during XX/XX/XXXX and the bank locked me out of online banking until I called them to discuss these attempted transactions. I spoke with the rep in the fraud department and advised that these additional attempted charges and XXXX were not mine. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from bank of america stating that there was suspious activity on my account and my online banking was locked until I called the number on the letter. I called the number on the letter at approximately XXXX XXXX. PST. I was put on hold for several minutes until a rep answered I was then transfered to another rep and then another. I literally spent 28 min on the call. The last man I spoke was very polite and apologized for me being transferred 3 times and stated he would unlock my online banking, cancel my old compromised debit card and send me a new debit card. He also said me could reactivate my online banking. I went online later that day and my online banking still was not letting me log in. I called the bank again, the phone number the other agent gave me earlier in the day and reached another representative. This woman was rude would not listen to me. From her tone it appeared that she believed I was being deceptive and was giving other people my bank log in passwords. She stated that she was closing my account. I told her NOT to close the account that I have my social security check being directly deposited the next day on XX/XX/XXXX. She advised I could go into the branch on the XXXX and get my money. On XX/XX/XXXX I went to the XXXX XXXX and spoke with XXXX. XXXX XXXX advised me my account was closed and that I would not get my social security money on the XXXX. XXXX advised for me to come back on Friday the XXXX. On Friday the XXXX, I went into the bank and XXXX XXXX again assisted me. She called the fraud dept and after speaking with then she again said my account was frozen closed and I could not have my funds.She XXXX put the rep on speaker phone who told me that Bank of America closed my account and that their banking relationship with me was over and they would never do business with me again. The same rep on the phone also told me if the bank were to give me my funds they would mail me a check in 5 days. I told them I needed my social security money becuse that was my only source of income and I had rent and bills to pay..The branch manager, XXXX then came into the room and said unfortunantly there is nothing she could do as far as releasing my {$1900.00}. I was sickened to the point i came down with a terrible headache. I went home and went to bed suffering severe emotional distress. I had paid a credit card payment online that was going through on the XXXX and 2 other bills as well. On that day later in the afternoon, I called the XXXX number I had been called regarding the fraud. I spoke with \" XXXX ''. XXXX advised that my funds were available and that I could go to the branch and withdraw them. XXXX said if I had any issues to have the bank give them a call. I went to the bank again a 10 mile one way drive for me. The teller advised that my account was frozen closed and I could not withdraw them. I called the fraud dept as I was standing there at the teller window and spoke with someone other than XXXX. This person advised that I could NOT withdraw my money. I then called again as I was standing in the bank before the teller and this representative stated I could withdraw my money. The teller then told the rep on the phone that on her end my account was frozen and I could not get my money. The rep told this teller that she needed to go to a different screen and push the override button. The teller followed her instructions and the teller then was able to give me my money. The experience caused me to get sick. I have health issues with my XXXX and I was worried I would have to go to the hospital. My credit card payment was rejected which caused my payment to show late and I was charged a {$25.00} late fee. 2 more bills bounced from my XXXX XXXX account and I was charged two {$35.00} NSF fees totaling {$70.00}. I pay some bill from my XXXX XXXX account becuse I deposit money on the XXXX of each month when my social sercurity is depostied.

Can't get straight answers from anyone of them. One company says one thing and the next says the total opposite. When I had filed first complaint I had asked for documentation when I I was supposedly told that when I had my other vehicle bought back from them that I wasn't't able to get the 6 plus months of payments back because I had been driving the vehicle and it was for the time I had driven the vehicle and I would only be able to use my original {$600.00} down payment to get into another vehicle. At the time I was fine with that because it was my understanding that the 6 plus months of statements would be reported to the credit bureaus so it wasn't like the 6 months never happened. Come to fine out after signing for my new vehicle I wasn't entitled to the 6 months of payments and that I wasn't going to get my 6 plus months of payment history suited to the credit bureaus hense me getting a higher interest rate on my new vehicle. They dod give me documentation that I agree is my signature that state that they wouldn't report my 6 months of on time payments to the credit bureau but doesn't have any document and they can't produce one that states I was aware of not getting my 6 months of payments either back or put towards my new vehicle. When asking for this document I was told that it was a verbal agreement hence they didn't need a document for this. SO next issue is they said they had audio of me agree to this verbal agreement and upon asking for it said I couldn't get it. So Getting royally screwed. I didn't sell myself a lemon they did. It has been an ongoing fight for the past 6 plus months. I was offered a reimbursement check form DriveTime ( I know now ) for Tint to be reapplied to my new Vehicle and for floor mats not given to me on my new vehicle. I had declined the Floor Mat reimbursement because was a waste of time for something I had already purchased while fighting them over my other issues. When I was sent my reimbursement check I was promised it was to be delivered before I had to leave out of town on business and I would really need it so I would have money for my business trip. It happened to fall on the week I had to make a payment to them and had threatened them I wouldn't pay it until I had my check in hand. Lucky I did pay it but at a cost to me on my business trip. I have never missed a payment and that one included but my check didn't arrive until Monday after I had already left out of town on business. When I contacted them back after getting back on business, that is when I had found out the reason it was late was because DriveTime had been dragging their feet. I had given them the allotted time of two weeks but to me it was done out of embarrassment and so things be done on their terms not mine. I am fed up with how they are doing business and are doing nothing but hurting me and future business with them. I am a customer of good standing and I am being treated like this? Same company that was fined by you all couple of years back for over {$6.00} XXXX dollars you would thing they would have learned there lesson but apparently not. They also ended up contacting me at the end of business day last Friday to let me know there isn't anything else they could possibly do to help me out any further. The person I had spoken to last in the DriveTime customer relations department after telling me we had a verbal agreement and I had asked for a copy of set conversation which Im not denying was said but needed for my records so If I was to get a lawyer involved would do it for me. So this is how its going to be I guess. I have 6 years of payments to them to pay my vehicle off and will complain until my voice is heard and get whats mine. I want my 6 months of payments back because like I had stated I didn't sell myself a lemon they did. I have also filed a complaint with the Maryland State Police Safety Enforcement Division to have there license revoked for selling a lemon vehicle and basically having a vehicle pencil whipped for an inspection which in any state is a big no no. Upon my own research because at the moment I can't afford an attorney in the State of Maryland, it is called Statue of Frauds where a verbal agreement of over {$500.00} is to be in written format not just formal so I believe I'm entitled to my money back now.

I have done all I can over the last eight months with both XXXX and your team. XXXX has continued to refuse to take any responsibility in this matter or show ANY ounce of understanding. It has been extremely frustrating.\n\nI will re-explain the circumstances here surrounding this situation in case you dont show the full details in the disputes Ive submitted with you-all. I respectfully ask for you to remove this late payment from my report, or alternatively, to remove the entire account if that is the most viable option.\n\nI was exposed by a friend to XXXX XXXX XXXX ' designed by-in-large to help clients like myself build their credit. I already had a strong credit profile with you & each of the bureaus at XXXX, but saw this as an opportunity to continue to grow. It has been a DISASTER now winding up in the position I have, and I could not regret more having started this with XXXX.\nThis SINGLE late payment on my credit profile, the ONE & ONLY negative/derogatory entry on my credit history PERIOD, is now costing my wife and I the ability to achieve a huge life XXXX, purchasing our first home.\n\nI called in on XX/XX/XXXX to process my monthly payment with XXXX and made an attempt to set up autopay so that I no longer had to worry about manually processing my payments of {$83.00} each month. The gentleman I spoke with helped me submit my payment and informed me that I needed to set up autopay online, as he was not able to on my behalf. I believed the payment was successfully processed through their system so I moved on with my life, but unfortunately it was not. It was submitted, but not actually processed.\n\nAs it turns out, XXXX does not accept payments from BUSINESS ACCOUNTS, which is what I attempted to pay with. I was not aware of this because XXXX rep failed to communicate this to me. XXXX says that this is NOT something they are required to communicate in their questioning or disclosures when processing payments. I must be the XXXX person this has happened to who has tried to utilize a business account with XXXX to make a payment, so I can not understand why they would let such a common and important stone go unturned. This SIMPLE communication not being part of such a large bank 's policy/disclaimer doesn't make any sense, as business accounts are estimated to make up 10-20 % of ALL bank accounts in the US.\n\nThe reality is this : I take the bulk of the responsibility for this late payment as XXXX later emailed informing me that my payment had not been processed successfully. If we are just being honest though, it is pretty understandable that some of us may become desensitized to XXXX emails as they have sent me XXXX EMAILS since XXXX of XXXX. That is absurd!\n\nMy payment was submitted but not successfully processed on time, so it is easy to say that the buck stops with me. This late payment would have been EASILY AVOIDED though if XXXX did not fail to communicate such an essential part of processing a payment- that they DO NOT accept business accounts.\n\nI have now been completely SCREWED due to this situation and have been fighting it all year, as I can not close on the home my wife and I are trying so hard to buy right now. This ONE late payment on my credit profile for the next SEVEN YEARS, the ONLY late payment, collection, derogatory entry PERIOD is costing me the ability to achieve such an important life achievement in purchasing our first home.\n\nHere is the other piece to this which is why XXXX asking for mercy and great customer service from your organization here : I obviously believed my payment was successfully processed with XXXX ( as seen in XXXX of the screenshots provided ), but due to my wife & Is health condition and the stress we were under at the time, we were unaware that the payment did not go through as expected. As soon as we realized the error because you guys notified me that my credit score had dropped by NEARLY XXXX XXXX we took IMMEDIATE steps to rectify the situation and paid the account in FULL.\n\nThis XXXX late payment is an isolated incident in what has otherwise been a history of TIMELY & RESPONSIBLE financial management. I take my financial obligations seriously, and my payment history reflects this commitment, with the exception of this XXXX unfortunate event.\n\nMy wife and I were XXXX XXXX during the time this payment was missed, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Our health deteriorated SIGNIFICANTLY to the point where we both XXXX XXXX. We were having multiple XXXX XXXX daily for nearly all of XXXX and into XXXX, and had lost an estimated XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and we believe its by the grace of God that we are alive & well today.\n\nWe saw many doctors and specialists throughout XXXX, and you would think we were speaking a foreign language to these people with how little was understood about our issue. XXXX XXXX can be DEADLY if you are heavily exposed, and it is sad that we as well as many others have had to suffer as much as we have, as mold is VERY common here in the state of Florida with such high humidity.\n\nWe were overwhelmed with managing our daily lives and responsibilities, which unfortunately resulted in falling behind on some things including this payment. Despite our best efforts to manage our finances during this difficult period, this payment was inadvertently missed and it has been ever so costly.\n\nAgain, my wife and I are currently in the process of trying to qualify for a home loan, and this single late payment is severely impacting our ability to move forward with this critical step in our lives. We are asking for a ONE-TIME exception to remove the XXXX late payment from my credit report, or alternatively, to remove the entire account if that is the most viable option.\n\nWe understand that the bank has reported this late payment as part of their standard procedures, but given the extenuating circumstances, we kindly request your assistance in removing this negative mark from my credit report, as the bank is not willing to take any responsibility or further action themselves. I have exhausted all options as my disputes show. I have followed proper rules & procedures to resolve this matter and am now making my LAST-DITCH effort XXXX\n\nYour understanding and consideration in this matter would make a significant difference in our ability to purchase a home and improve our overall financial situation. Thank you for taking the time to review our request.

This payment book cover and slip provides all of the information necessary to verify that I am who I day I am. Because my statements are XXXXXXXX, I made a video of me logging into my account and scrolling to every Self debit/payment in the account.

I have called, the message I receive simply says, 'if I'm calling because I have to verify my account, they will only respond via email, and it will take three days from the time I submit my documents for my account to be reviewed [ Paraphrased ]. After that, it just hangs up. Self has not responded to any of my emails or requests for a representative to call me.\n\nSelf has stated in its email : \" Verifying your identity and payment information helps us keep your account secure and is required by law. '' It would seem to me that Self did not follow the law when it established my account by appropriately verifying my identity as the other financial institutions that I bank with have. To make matters worse, after making ON-TIME payments for months, informing them that their credit builder services did not work in my case and rather severely hurt my credit, hence the reason I decide to payoff the balance and end the relationship with Self. In response, Self is now treating me like I have committed a crime. They have limited my access to the account. They will not respond to my emails or calls. They have taken my money and by their actions seem to be attempting to punish me possibly for raising awareness that their system of building credit did not work for me. Their actions seem quite retaliatory. If Self had verified my identity as required by law for me to establish an account, why now, after I have paid them that they are doing this. They have not offered any explanation, they have simply taken my money and shut me out. I have done nothing to deserve this treatment. If Self violated the law that they themselves supposedly enforce, I believe they should be held account to the standard and an infraction imposed on them for violating the publics trust by not fully verifying ones identity when first establishing an account.\n\n-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Included in Self Lender 's computer generated emails : All XXXX XXXX Accounts made by XXXX XXXX Member FDIC, Equal Housing Lender, XXXX XXXX, XXXX.

She was told it was approved. She was told we wouldn't need to make mortgage payments due to hardships encountered as a result of the pandemic. She was told that we would receive paperwork outlining the terms of the forbearance. After several months, Crosscountry still hadn't provided any documentation regarding the forbearance. My wife telephoned several times. When she was able to get through, she was informed that due to overwhelming demand, Crosscountry was behind on processing forbearance requests, but that we were not in any danger -- and to please be patient. We decided to resume mortgage payments, because Crosscountry never sent us any terms, conditions, or paperwork for the forbearance. Shortly thereafter, Crosscountry began reporting our mortgage as \" late ''. My wife 's credit reports reflected different status than mine. For example, her 's reflected a 120 day late at one point, while mine reflected 60 days late for the same month.\n\nIn XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Crosscountry to determine if there was a way forward that would be beneficial to both parties. I was informed by \" XXXX '' ( customer service representative ) that I had already been qualified for their \" Loss Mitigation '' loan modification program, effective XX/XX/XXXX. According to XXXX, the mortgage would be modified, the late payments removed, a new interest rate assigned, and an updated loan maturity date of XXXX assigned. The first payment of the loan modification was XX/XX/XXXX. I was instructed that I'd need to make three on-time payments, the first on XX/XX/XXXX, the second on XX/XX/XXXX, and the third on XX/XX/XXXX in order for the modification to become permanent. Once it was permanent, then paperwork would be sent to me outlining the terms and conditions of the modification -- not before.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Crosscountry Mortgage -- because I still hadn't received any documentation regarding the loan modification. I spoke with \" XXXX ''. He informed me that he'd just \" pinged '' the \" tech team '' responsible to mail out paperwork. He said it takes 24-48 hours for them to do their thing. I asked if I'd need to telephone back on Monday, XX/XX/XXXX and check back. He said, \" Yes. '' On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a payment to Crosscountry Mortgage in the amount of {$3000.00} per the Loss Mitigation loan modification agreement.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Crosscountry Mortgage, and spoke with \" XXXX XXXX ( she/her ). She verified the paperwork still hadn't been mailed.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, I received the Loss Mitigation paperwork from Crosscountry Mortgage. The letter was dated XX/XX/XXXX, and the envelope was post dated XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted Crosscountry Mortgage and spoke with \" XXXX '', because the Loss Mitigation paperwork I recieved did not align with the verbally agreed upon terms. We were told the \" trial period '' payments were to be remitted on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX, in the amount of {$3000.00}. The Loss Mitigation paperwork I received stated the \" trial period '' payments were changed to XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XXXX in the amount of {$3000.00}. XXXX could see it all on her system, but explained that it was confusing. She put me on hold and spoke with her supervisor. XXXX explained that \" XXXX '' no longer worked for Crosscountry Mortgage, and that although my case should have been reassigned, it looked like it hadn't been. The supervisor spoke briefly with me. She explained that what she saw in the system didn't make sense. She placed me on hold, \" To get to the bottom of this. '' When she came back, she explained that what she sees on screen is \" confusing ''. She informed me I didn't need to have paid my XX/XX/XXXX payment. She said Crosscountry would have refused the payment, because the three trial payments must be \" certified check '' sent through terrestrial mail -- not via automated banking systems.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Crosscountry Mortgage and spoke with \" XXXX '' to see if Crosscountry could update my credit reports. There were multiple 30-day lates, as well as many 60-day lates that I wanted reversed. XXXX instructed me to contact the team who reviews requests of this nature : \" XXXX ''. She instructed me to let them know the exact months affected, and how its being reported.\n\nI successfully ensured certified checks were printed and mailed to Crosscountry Mortgage, on time, per their instructions on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, I received the promised loan modification paperwork, with instructions to sign, date, notarize, and return to Crosscountry. My wife and I signed, notarized, and returned the paperwork via FedEx as instructed.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, we received a second set of paperwork, again instructing us to sign, notarize, and return. Again, we did as instructed -- and on XX/XX/XXXX we signed, notarized, and returned the required paperwork via XXXX\n\nIn XXXX, XXXX we received a third set of paperwork, again instructing us to sign, notarize, and return.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX am, I received a phone call from Crosscountry Mortgage. I did not answer that call. I was asleep in bed.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX I called Crosscountry to inquire why we were being made to submit the same paperwork a third time. I was informed that the first two sets of documents contained an illegible notary stamp and signature. I informed Crosscountry that I'd photographed the notary stamp, and that it was indeed legible -- and that I'd had a contracts attorney review the legibility of the stamp and signature, and that I'd be happy to submit a statement along with photographic proof if needed. Crosscountry informed me that the only notes in the system regarding the illegibility of the stamp and signature had something to do with \" water damage ''. My wife and I again signed and notarized the documentation as instructed, and this time I enclosed the packet in a zip-lock bag before dropping in the mail. I expressed concern that our loan modification 's first payment was due on XX/XX/XXXX, but since Crosscountry hadn't accepted our signatures and notary stamps yet, we may no longer be qualified at the interest rate laid out in the agreement. The representative said the loan modification was fine, and that our payment due on XX/XX/XXXX could be made via automated bank payment, money order, cashiers check, mail it in, or call and speak to a representative for an over-the-phone payment ( which has an associated \" convenience fee '' ).\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, we signed, notarized, and returned the required paperwork via FedEx -- this time sealing the documents in a zip-lock bag before placing into the XXXX envelope.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, my wife XXXX XXXX called Crosscountry Mortgage and made a payment over-the-phone. Crosscountry waived the \" convenience fee ''.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Crosscountry Mortgage and spoke with \" XXXX ''. Our XX/XX/XXXX payment had been cleared our bank account, however Crosscountry 's website showed we hadn't made our XXXX payment. I was concerned we might be hit with a \" late '' penalty. XXXX informed me that on XX/XX/XXXX, Crosscountry received \" something '', and that everything looked up to date. She explained that my account was undergoing an \" update '' -- and that once it's updated, everything will be fine. I asked about the XX/XX/XXXX payment. She said she could see it in the system as having been received, and that once my account update is completed, my payment will be reflected correctly. She said there will be no late fee, and no late payment. XXXX instructed me to call back and check on XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX to verify.\n\nIn XXXX, XXXX my wife XXXX logged on to the Crosscountry website, and configured auto-payments, so mortgage payments will always be on time. Since XXXX, XXXX, every mortgage payment has been paid on time, via Crosscountry 's automated service.\n\nIn XXXX, XXXX, I lodged credit file disputes with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, in an effort to remove the \" late '' payment history from my credit report. I'd followed every instruction from Crosscountry since XXXX, XXXX, and still don't understand why it isn't reflected on my credit report.

I inquired why a customer should have to \" prove '' that the lender received on-time payments. I asked to speak with a supervisor. The supervisor told XXXX to tell me that I'm no longer in their \" Loss Mitigation '' program, and that I should contact the \" Research Department '' or customer service. I contacted customer service. I spoke with \" XXXX ''. I explained the history. XXXX made an effort to escalate, but was told the same thing.

The letter indicated if I wanted a different repayment schedule, I simply had to call Navient. I called the next day ( approx XXXX XXXX ), and tried to get the repayment schedule back to my previous schedule. This proved extremely difficult- the first call I could not reach a representative through any of the automated choices, and when I finally did reach a rep, she had to transfer me to a different section. I proceeded to wait on hold for approx 10 minutes and then instead of speaking to someone to assist me, I was instead connected to a satisfaction survey which asked about my experience. Considering I received absolutely no assistance, I would say the experience was pretty unsatisfying. So, I tried again, and reached a human fairly quickly, one who assured my the change request had been added to the account and that my next monthly payment would remain the same and not revert to the lower payment/longer payment schedule. I assumed this would be the case and I did not request verification in writing. Unfortunately, this month 's monthly payment just came out and I see that the lower amount ( corresponding to the longer repayment schedule ) was made and not back to my normal payment amount.\n\nI understand that the XXXX repayment schedules may not have matched up within the consolidation loan, and this may be a requirement, but I do n't see why it 's necessary for Navient to revert the consumer automatically to the longer repayment schedule since this inevitably costs the borrower more in interest. And what I really do n't understand is why it 's so difficult for a borrower to contact Navient and have the payment changed back to what the borrower originally wanted ( and had been paying without incident for over 10 years. ) I think it 's disingenuous to change a borrower 's repayment schedule without their consent- but it 's even more egregious to make it difficult, if not impossible, for the consumer to change it back to the option that will ultimately save the consumer thousands in interest.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "lender_or_servicer", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/1883317", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/256547ae8a45c245a392", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "medium", "chars": 2311, "company": "Navient Solutions, LLC.", "date_received": "2016-04-16", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Dealing with my lender or servicer", "sub_issue_raw": "Trouble with how payments are handled", "text_sha256": "256547ae8a45c245a392a5f9256771a1577dac77e2613d3d80480cd1df7d6d11", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Salutations, Over the past three years I have experienced considerable frustration with Navient student loans.\nI took out student loans, through XXXX XXXX , in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX , with payments beginning in XX/XX/XXXX . I set auto pay for this account, in order to take advantage of an offer for an immediate loan reduction of .125 % ; bringing my initial APR to 3.375 % - Due to three-years of uninterrupted on-time loan payments my interest rate was subsequently reduced to 2.125 %.\nJust prior to the XXXX XXXX transfer to Navient I went online to see what my current loan balance was ; which came to a little over one-thousand dollars. Immediately following the change to Navient I decided to review my current balance ; which had now ballooned to nearly four-thousand dollars. I know that I had never missed a payment, due to the auto deduction I set up back when I first took out the loans, so I rushed to the phone to find out what the XXXX happened.\nWhen I finally reached Navient their agent explained that my current balance was the product of a consolidation I made in XX/XX/XXXX , of {$12000.00}. I tried to explain to the agent that I had never requested a consolidation of my student loan, I had never missed a payment, and my original loan amount was for {$12000.00}. The agent insisted that my information was incorrect and that my current balance was now just under four-thousand dollars. The agent agreed to send me a copy of my loan agreement ; which arrived three weeks later, and was based on the XX/XX/XXXX consolidation agreement I never made.\nI decided to wait until the term of my loan had ended before reaching out to Navient again ; hoping their misunderstanding was a glitch in their newly established system. When I finally reached out to Navient, at the end of my original loan agreement, I was informed that not only where the standing by their original assessment, but my percentage rate was 3.375 %, compounded daily ; I dropped the phone, called Navient back, and a new agent calmed me down by explaining that the previous agent was mistaken about the interest rate, but was correct about the terms of my loan ; she volunteered to send me out another copy of the loan agreement, which was a carbon copy of the one sent out the year before.\nDue to lifes twists and turns the time had finally come for me to address this issue head on. I reviewed my records, performed a simple equation on XXXX , and came up with a current loan amount of - {$2100.00} ; which I assumed would get Navients attention considering they where now guilty of grand-theft.\nI emailed Navient the following : Good day, Per my request, Navient provided a copy of my current loan agreement ; said agreement correctly notes original loan amount, of {$12000.00}, a payment of {$90.00}, and an original APR of 3.375 %, with a total principal and interest of {$16000.00} ; but for some reason said document notes Date Interest Begins to Accrue of XX/XX/XXXX - account XXXX .\nI began making payments to this loan in XX/XX/XXXX and have now paid a total of {$16000.00} ; which is substantially more than the {$16000.00} noted in the \" Principal and Interest You Will Have Paid '' section, of the XXXX Disclosure Agreement. My APR was reduced to 2.125 %, in XX/XX/XXXX , due to my three years of uninterrupted payments ; which means that I have now been overcharged {$1500.00} - based on my calculations.\nI believe the disconnect happened after Navient spun off from XXXX ; somehow accounting my automatic interest rate reduction as a consolidation of an existing loan - my loans still show as two separate loans on the Navient Website.\nNow, if you could be so kind as to please show me when my original loan of {$12000.00} transformed into a loan amount of {$15000.00} I could stop thinking about how a multi-billion dollar corporation was holding my credit rating hostage - when did my fifteen year loan transform into an eighteen year loan?\nIm trying to be calm here ; but I see nothing that tells me why my payments from XX/XX/XXXX thru XX/XX/XXXX count for nothing.\nThank you for your time and consideration.\nNote : this my third attempt to reach out to Navient regarding this issue XX/XX/XXXX Navient responded via the attached pdf.doc ; maintaining their previously stated position, and asserting their right to an additional {$1600.00} bringing their potential theft to about {$5000.00}.\nI contacted Navient when I got home from work that evening and after having to endured the same explanations I had received the previous attempts I asked if the agent would be so kind as to tell me what my original loan amount was back in XX/XX/XXXX . The agent was kind enough to review my records, of the past sixteen years, and informed me that my original loan amount was in deed {$12000.00}. I then asked the agent how my original loan could balloon to {$12000.00}, after three years of payments, to which the agent began to explain that there was a disbursement made in XX/XX/XXXX to your schoolwaitoh my The agent assured me that a form would be sent out in the few weeks explaining why Navient did what they did.\nAt this point I want more than just the money Navient has stolen from me, more than interest and penalties they would have charged me, and more than a simple slap on the wrist from one executive to another I still do not know if Navient plans on making good on their obvious and deliberate mishandling of our contractual agreement.\nThank you for your time and consideration,", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "lender_or_servicer", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/2592168", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/e4d2503e5c39af117226", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5537, "company": "Navient Solutions, LLC.", "date_received": "2017-08-02", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "sub_issue_raw": "Received bad information about your loan", "text_sha256": "e4d2503e5c39af1172268b5f7c4dcab6a81195e76a07ba94224a14d0e8bafc27", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Our home was owned by my mother XXXX and XXXX we purchase our home in XX/XX/XXXX we refi a couple of times then my mother who had been retired since the purchase was convince to get a Reverse Mortgage and we were told that it would not effect us and that after she passed that I could keep the home no questions.

This is backed up by clear photographic evidence, which has been sent to Chase, per their instructions via hard copy twice, and yet continues to go unaddressed. After multiple phone calls there is no clear path offered by Chase to resolve this issue.\n\nThe vehicle leased was a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX Acct # XXXX XXXX.\n\nThis complaint is regarding JPMorgan Chase Bank XXXX Chase XXXX, which operates XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX : XXXX. The end of lease group in Texas has been the source of the frustration. Key factors are their inability to work with electronic files OR receive hard copy mail, mixed with their general apathy and attitude, which, after several phone calls, offers no real help or suggested path to resolution. An issue that could have been resolved in a matter of minutes continues to drag out over a month with no clear path to resolution in sight.\n\nAdditional detail, organized in date order and with reference to supporting documents are as follows : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Report identifies limited damage totalling {$200.00}.\n\nXXXX - XXXX XXXX father enters hospice and passes away from terminal XXXX. I asked to extend my lease during this period. However my driving was severely limited, and no subsequent damage occurred.\n\nXXXX I take photos in various conditions of the vehicle prior to turning it in. These six photos are included in the subsequent correspondence to Chase - these indicate no damage to the XXXX Door Panel prior to the vehicle being surrendered to the transport truck driver.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX XXXX truck sent by Chase picks up the vehicle from my home in downtown XXXX XXXX there is no dealership involved - pickup arranged with Chase due to Covid ).\n\nXX/XX/XXXX Date of first letter from Chase, identifying a variety of small damage items, including those identified in the pre-inspection report, which I do not dispute. However a significant and unexpected line item is introduced, which is described as XXXX Door Panel Heavy Scratch and has a cost assigned of {$2200.00}. This is the disputed charge that has yet to be addressed.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX After catching up with mail and reading the letter, I call Chase - the lease end group in Texas at XXXX - to inquire about how the inspection occurred, and ultimately to dispute the XXXX Door Panel Heavy Scratch line item. I am told a separate research department will review the photos from the inspection. They will drop any charges for which they do not find photos. I can also request to have the photos sent, which I do.\n\nI found the nature of this call to be unsettling. I was told that this stays with this department 100 days, and I dont want to know what happens after that. I found the tone to be generally aggressive and threatening, as if I had been sent to a debt collector vs a customer service department with any kind of curiosity as to my situation.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX Document Attached : Correspondence from Chase Date of letter from Chase with grainy photos printed on ordinary copy paper. Only one of these images identifies the supposed XXXX Door Panel Heavy Scratch. If it is in fact on the XXXX Door Panel ( difficult to validate via this one picture ), it was certainly not there when I surrendered the vehicle to the transport driver.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX I call Chase to explain the situation all over again, this time to XXXX. I was told to mail my photos to a very specific address, which was provided by XXXX as follows : Chase XXXX XXXX : XXXX Department XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX I asked XXXX to repeat as some elements seemed strange like the PO Box number with a comma, etc. She acknowledged it was strange but this was the address. It will turn out later this was an incorrect address.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX I mail a letter with my photos and the pre-inspection report via XXXX Priority Mail - the tracking indicates it was not delivered.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX I call Chase and ask to speak to a supervisor. I speak with XXXX, ID # XXXX. XXXX is not initially curious or helpful. I have to ask him to look up the address for me and verify what XXXX provided was correct. When he finally does, it turns out to be a different zip code. The address is provided as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX Mail XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX Attn : Research XX/XX/XXXX Document Attached : Damage Dispute Letters to Chase I print out all my hard copies again - revised letter/address, photos, pre-inspection report, and sent by Priority Express Mail. This time the tracking indicates it was delivered early on XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX After seeing the letter and photos have been delivered for over a week, and I have not heard anything from Chase, despite the fact they said they would call. I call the following numbers : XXXX XXXX XXXX Customer Service at XXXX - they listen but say they can not help with anything regarding Chase. They suggest I find out if Chase has a complaint department. No such department for dealing with this issue can be found online or on the phone. No matter who I call I am always redirected to the same end of lease group in Texas that has been so difficult to work with.\nXXXX XXXX XXXX Customer Service at XXXX - after asking for a supervisor and explaining the situation - they simply reconnect me to XXXX in Texas and the same group that again has not been helpful this whole time When I am redirected to XXXX ID # XXXX, I provide the tracking number for the second mailing, which he looks up to see it was in fact delivered. However XXXX says they dont have the photos. I ask how is that possible? - I have mailed them twice and reconfirmed the address with XXXX himself. The XXXX says its delivered. XXXX says, I dont know what to tell you. If were not getting anything, we cant waive it. XXXX says the only next step is arbitration. I ask if he has a supervisor. He says yes but it takes XXXX XXXX for that individual to call me back. He will mail me the lease contract, which describes arbitration as the only option left.\n\nObviously this has taken a lot of my time and resources, with multiple phone calls, mailings, printing out of photos, documenting, etc. A reasonable customer service agent would be able to determine in about XXXX XXXX that the XXXX Panel Heavy Scratch occurred after I turned in the vehicle. Yet the Chase lease end office in Texas feels more like a debt collector than a customer service office. This group is at best apathetic, sometimes threatening, and surely not helpful. I have spent my own resources printing photos and putting together hard copies and mailed them TWICE per their direction, and yet they dont know what to say about it, using the excuse they have not received what XXXX confirmed was delivered.\n\nIt is shocking to me that in the year XXXX Chase Bank can not receive photos or correspondence electronically. Having said that, if they claim to deal with hard copy only, they do not have a reliable way to receive hard copies either, so they leave consumers with no viable options to resolve simple issues. The fact that the XXXX XXXX name is attached to this group also is not helpful - XXXX XXXX will not act as Chase holds the lease and only uses their name apparently for branding/marketing. And the internal customer service at XXXX XXXX XXXX is powerless to act - they simply steer me back to the office in Texas, which again leaves no resolution. In the meantime, this drains my resources, and ultimately puts my credit at risk, as it seems their only strategy is to drag their feet until their threat of 100 days, when it turns over to collections.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "vehicle_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing the loan or lease", "end_of_loan": "Problems at the end of the loan or lease", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan or lease", "repossession": "Repossession"}, "label": "end_of_loan", "src": "cfpb_issue_vehicle_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/4343120", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/47b22b3bdc8eaffcc604", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 7744, "company": "JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.", "date_received": "2021-05-02", "product_raw": "Vehicle loan or lease", "issue_raw": "Problems at the end of the loan or lease", "sub_issue_raw": "Excess mileage, damage, or wear fees, or other problem after the lease is finished", "text_sha256": "47b22b3bdc8eaffcc604b76d43514f095fc8c6975bae34dbc1630622bb0924f6", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "CONTINUOS AND PERSISTENCE HARRASTMENT I had already asked this compny not to contact me on XX/XX/2022 Today XXXX Once again.\nVeritas Funding LLC -NMLS # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX AZ, XXXX XXXX This time with XXXX File ID Number XXXX.

I am writing to formally demand a refund pertaining to in my name with Navient. I have carefully reviewed the loan agreement and believe that I am entitled to a refund based on the following grounds : 1098-E : According to my records which I have reviewed all my tax documents which have been completed by a licensed accountant per IRS standards with over 30 years of experience. I obtained copies of tax returns submitted to the IRS along my originals to ensure any discrepancies that may have been submitted on my end which no discrepancies found. However multiple discrepancies that were found on Navient 's part. I requested copies of all 1098-E forms from Navient which I received XX/XX/XXXX. I was not provided copies of the 1098-Es. The amounts on the document from Navient pertaining to the loan in question are inaccurate which is of concern and validates my payments were processed to a loan that is not mine.\n\nI spoke with XXXX XXXX XXXX who works in your consumer advocate department in reference to all the aboveXXXX XXXX also provided me an EIN that does not reflect the 1098-Es that I have and are not listed on the documents I obtained from the IRS. The EIN numbers on the 1098-Es all pertain to Federal Student loans. This is very concerning which validates that Navient listed this private loan under my federal loan account number and attached another account number to represent a private loan which would be beneficial for Navient upon tax filing.\n\nMisrepresentation : I requested copies of all loan documents. I was provided documents that are concerning. I was provided two disclosures with different dates which I have questioned multiple times and not been provided an answer as to why the dates are different, a loan application that has a signature that is not mine along with no date. I was provided loan information that validates Navient consolidated a private and federal loan under the account number XXXX although uses XXXX and continued to accept payment. Interchanging loan numbers/account numbers/grouping has been an issue for many with Navient as mentioned in XXXX of the lawsuits. I expect Navient to rectify this by refunding the full loan amount, payments and interest.\nTransaction history varies from paper work I was provided in XX/XX/XXXX from the Navient website. Upon reviewing the Navient transaction list on the website a payment of {$1.00} is noted. A payment made that month was allocated to XXXX XXXX for {$100.00}. Navient transferred loans to XXXX that also do not reflect correct amount.\n\nNavient has had multiple lawsuits pertaining to unfair, deceptive practice and violating consumer protection laws.\nXXXX of the lawsuits was filed by The Massachusetts Attorney General along with other state XXXX XXXX. The lawsuits filed was pertaining to Navient violated consumer protection laws by engaging in unfair and deceptive servicing and collection practices and, as XXXX XXXX, originating predatory subprime private student loans.\nAnother lawsuit filed by the CFPB because Navient XXXX XXXX at Every Stage of Repayment. Navient, Formerly Part of XXXX XXXX, Illegally Cheated Borrowers Out of Repayment Rights Through Shortcuts and Deception The settlement included conduct reforms, including prohibitions on unfair and deceptive conduct and terms designed to ensure that Navient improves its servicing and debt collection operations which Navient has not done.\n\nI have attached copies of relevant documents, including payment records and correspondence with Navient, to support my claim. I have also made attempts to resolve this matter through your customer service department, but have not received a satisfactory response.\n\nI demand that Navient rectify this situation within 30 days. Rectification is to include a full refund with in the 30 days from the date on this letter in the form of a check and remove this trade line from my credit report. Navient is to inform XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX along XXXX any other CRA that Navient reports XXXX.\n\nFailure to address this matter satisfactorily I will take further legal.

The King mattress, the All-In-One Foundation specifically designed for this mattress and free pillows were delivered on XX/XX/2021.\n\nI was given a 101 day free trial. I returned the order after 33 days since the bed was stiff. XXXX, a vendor that works for XXXX that picks up returned products, picked up the King mattress and All-in-One Foundation on XX/XX/2021.\n\nXXXX states in various emails that product returns are processed within 30 days. I have not been issued a credit for this return 2.5 months later. Moreover, the tentative amount of the refund is not correct.\n\nThis is a simple issue. I purchased a King bed. A bed includes a mattress and a foundation and XXXX via their vendor picked-up the King mattress and the foundation on XX/XX/XXXX. I should receive a credit or refund for the original amount paid for the mattress and foundation of {$1800.00}.\n\nXXXX has calculated a tentative credit but has not processed the credit. The tentative credit is for {$1500.00}. The tentative credit is incorrect for three reasons : - It excludes sales taxes of {$120.00}. I should receive a full credit for all sales taxes on returned products.\n- They did not issue a credit for the All-In-One Foundation of {$340.00} less the promotional discount of {$110.00} or {$240.00}. They claim that they disclose on their website that they do not offer a credit for returned foundations. I spoke to a representative from the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau about this issue to get his thoughts before filing this complaint. My thinking was that I purchased an expensive bed and if it comes with an All-in-One foundation specifically designed for their mattress, then it is reasonable to assume that the foundation is part of the bed. The representative from the CFPB agreed with me and recommended that I also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission. In addition, XXXX picked up both the mattress and the foundation. If their vendor picked up a product I had purchased they should provide me with a credit for a product that I do not own. Alternatively, XXXX should instruct XXXX, their vendor, not to pick-up foundations.\n- They attempt to charge me {$90.00} for \" Free '' pillows even though I did not order them. They miscalculated the amount, but XXXX should not be charging me for \" Free '' pillows simply because a customer returns a bed. Notice how they refer to \" Free '' pillows twice in their order confirmation e-mail.\n\nIn the meantime, over the last three months Affirm, the financial institution that finances XXXX sales, has been sending me past due notices. I purchased a product and I returned it. I should receive a full credit for the return. Before I returned the product I made two {$77.00} payments to Affirm. I should receive a refund of {$150.00} from Affirm since I returned the product. I have spoken to a half dozen individuals from Affirm, including supervisors over the last three months. They refuse to address the issue.\n\nPlease see email from XXXX, XXXX Finance Manager, on her calculation of the tentative credit that has the issues described above. After the number 4, the Finance Manager states that the timing of the refunds depends on the financial institution leading me to think that Affirm has not processed this credit promptly.\n\nPlease also email of order confirmation email received from XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX : To summarize, the amount of the credit for the return of the mattress and foundation should be {$1800.00} and the refund amount should be processed immediately since we are way past the 30 days maximum it takes to process a return. Affirm needs to refund {$150.00} to me as soon as possible.\n\nPlease call me at XXXX XXXX XXXX if you have any questions or need further clarification.\n\nXXXX XXXX Finance Manager e-mail : Good Afternoon XXXX, Thank you for your prompt response.\n\nI also see that you are keeping your 2 XXXX for a special rate of {$85.00}. Terrific. We hope you are enjoying them.

I enrolled in autopay on or about XX/XX/XXXX. My lease term was to XX/XX/XXXX. After turning in my vehicle at lease end, I checked my CC account online at www.Chryslercapital.com to see if there were any charges related to my lease end - such as wear and tear, damages, etc. this was XX/XX/XXXX I believe. The website indicated that a payment was past due. I immediately called CC customer service at XXXX as I was sure it was a mistake. I was told by the rep that no payment was made in XX/XX/XXXX representing the final payment. I indicated I was enrolled in auto pay so the payment shouldve been taken out. She said CC does not deduct final lease payment automatically. This was news to me. Its not in the auto pay agreement and I did not receive correspondence alerting me to this. I even spoke with a lease-end specialist who reached out to me XX/XX/XXXX - she did not mention this. So I paid the full balance immediately. I asked the rep would the late payment be reporting on my credit as she indicated it was 34 days past due. This was very important to me as I would be in the market for a home soon and I worked very hard to get my credit to a good score where I would not only qualify, but also position myself to get the best rates. She said she could not be sure whether or not it would be reported.\n\nNo late payments reported on credit XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX. In the meantime, I received a refund from CC for overpayment.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX I began the mortgage application process. First step was to get quotes from different lenders and brokers. I do actively monitor my credit, but obviously I dont have access to what exactly the tri-merge would show. XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX was one of the lenders. I received a Loan Estimate and I considered the terms great and put XXXX near the top. The loan officer informed me that CC was still showing as an open account meaning the monthly payment was being included in my DTI. This along with other errors on my credit factored in to her review of the file. I told her this was incorrect and sent her documentation but she basically told me whats on credit when they pull it is final and that was that. I disputed this with all credit bureaus. This incorrect information impacted my scores and loan products I was able to qualify for. I spoke with other lenders who were more understanding and I closed on my home XXXX.\n\nLater that same month I get updated on the dispute. CC reported the account as closed/full term. However they also reported the payment that they didnt deduct! This was pretty infuriating as the only reason I disputed the trade line was because they didnt accurately report it as closed in the first place. I didnt really know what to do. I felt it was completely unfair. But I told myself that technically it was late and there was nothing that could be done.\n\nFrom then until XX/XX/XXXX the trade line stood. I inquired about credit limit increases with my credit card companies and none were approved. Before, either they increased them automatically or I was approved consistently when I inquired. I was fed up as my credit scores were not moving back up quickly. I also wanted to apply for higher tier cards, but knew my scores were not high enough. So I called CC again for help. I believe this was XX/XX/XXXX. The rep was very nice, but told me that there was no one to discuss this with and that I would need to dispute with bureaus again. I felt defeated once more. I finally disputed with XXXX on XXXX and that same day the dispute was closed with no changes. I submitted to them my bank statements from XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX showing I had more than enough funds to pay and the transaction history showing all other payments made on time.\n\nBut this is completely unacceptable. I enrolled in auto pay so my payments would be deducted when due. To this day CC website literally says When you sign up for Auto Pay you never have to worry about late or missing payments. I also sent this statement in a screenshot as it appeared on the website with my most recent dispute. I relied on this as being accurate and it has cost me irreparable harm. I worked so hard to repair my credit and it has been tarnished because of a technicality. I did not receive a call or voicemail letting me know the final payment would not be deducted. I do not have my auto pay agreement, but the one on CC website as of XXXX says nothing about last payment needing to be paid manually.\n\nI do not understand this practice of theirs. The first time I called in XX/XX/XXXX, the rep told me they did this because they wanted to avoid taking multiple payments accidentally? I would rather them take more payments than the alternative that has happened to me! This practice is unethical as the only benefit lies with CC as they can and did collect a late fee. In no way does the consumer benefit. At best they would come out neutral as the payment is due whether made automatically or manually. I was given no sufficient notice. CC to this day represents auto pay as a set it and forget it payment option. This should not be allowed to continue to harm consumers.\n\nPlease help.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "vehicle_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/4507078", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/b08f1191f8ea2925617d", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5204, "company": "Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc.", "date_received": "2021-06-30", "product_raw": "Vehicle loan or lease", "issue_raw": "Managing the loan or lease", "sub_issue_raw": "Billing problem", "text_sha256": "b08f1191f8ea2925617dddb8c5782ce6d4c1d07dac165025fab4affd63cdffbc", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "On XXXX my card and phone was lost or stolen.

This is no different than me paying for a service and not receiving what I paid for and filing a fraud claim. Which I have done in the past and they went after my funds. I believe their reluctance is due in large part to their partnership with XXXX.\n\nMy name is XXXX XXXX and I have been a Bank of America customer since XXXX. I am writing today to file a complaint against Bank of American and the XXXX Fraud Department. In XXXX of this year I sent money to a merchant, using XXXX, from my personal banking app. At that time Bank of America failed to list any warnings about the possible scams that could be associated with using XXXX nor did Bank of America mention that funds may not be able to be recovered if using XXXX. That verbiage and warning signs were only recently added. I believe that this was done in an attempt to cover your end and not protect your customers. Bank of America even lists on their website that XXXX is a safe way to send money, however you now have verbiage saying that people can be scammed when using XXXX. I find that to be a bit contradictory. During the course of the investigation, no one ever reached out to me for any documentation that I had supporting my claims of fraud against the merchant. This is the first time since Ive been a customer of Bank of America that this was not done. I have filed complaints in the past for fraud and I was always asked to submit any information that I had in the document center. This was not the case this time. And once the investigation was complete I was told that Bank of America was unable to retrieve my funds and that I needed to contact the merchant. I find your findings to be insufficient and unacceptable. I was told during the course of the investigation, by a Bank of America associate, that a police report was filed and I was also told that a decision had been reached and I would be receiving my funds soon. I recently requested that all information involved in the alleged investigation be sent to me ; I am still waiting. That information is essential, should litigation become necessary. Since all calls are monitored and recorded, that conversation should be able to be retrieved without any issues. The conversation then changed to, were still investigating and dont have an answer yet, to the investigation being complete with no resolution on my end. I trusted this institution to protect not only me but my money and you have failed and it appears that customers being scammed through a platform that you offer and promote on your website is of no concern to you. If something is deemed financially unsafe and you can not guarantee the protection of your customers funds, then why would you offer a platform such as this through your financial institution? And it is my firm belief that Bank of America is able to retrieve my funds and go after the merchant, but you are simply choosing not to. You are choosing to do what is in your best interest and not the best interest of your customer. I do know that a class action lawsuit was filed against Bank of America in XXXX of this year for the same exact matter and it wasnt until the media began promoting the story that the XXXX customers involved were refunded. That lets me know that you do have the power to rectify these types of situations on behalf of your customers, but you choose not to. I have been without my car since XXXX due to the fact that I have been failed by my financial institution. I am a mother, a XXXX student, and a full time employee. This has cost me more than the {$1700.00} that was stolen from me by using Bank of America and XXXX. Had I been properly informed of the risks involved before making the transaction, I would NOT have used XXXX as that is not a sensible risk to take. After all, were not talking about {$17.00} here. By not having any warnings posted I was led to believe that I was making a secure transaction. I used XXXX through my mobile banking app under false pretenses. I will speak to as many news outlets and file as many complaints as I need to in order to have this resolved.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that you, the credit-reporting agency report accurate and/or correct account information within my credit file. My credit issues are very specific, these accounts and/or items do not belong to me. This means that you are reporting incorrect account information within my credit report. It is this in mind that I request that these listed accounts and items be Blocked and Deleted. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act FCRA, Section 1681c ( 2 ) Block of information resulting from identity theft. 1.Block. Except as otherwise provided in this section, a consumer reporting shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than four ( 4 ) business days after the date receipt by such agency of 1.

We purchased our home on no doc through Washington Mutual. Chase took over the loan in XX/XX/XXXX and we refinanced from a 30 year fixed to a 15 year fixed mortgage Chase in XX/XX/XXXX. At the closing, Chase asked if we wanted a $ XXXX line of credit. We elected to accept only $ XXXX at the time, which was not accessed until XX/XX/XXXX. In late XX/XX/XXXX, Chase invited us to increase our HELOC line from the $ XXXX to $ XXXX, but at an increase of 2 % on the entire balance. Going through the financial crisis causing negative Government effect on my FCC Broadcast ownership, XXXX and XXXX children in college, we accepted going forward with the new terms. Chase then delayed for months stating our home value decreased and despite adequate funds in the bank and questioned amount of money I was taking from my owned radio station XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, MA. In XX/XX/XXXX, Chase finally dictated to us that our only option was modification but we had to skip two payments to be considered.\n\nChase then reported us to the credit bureaus and the modification approval for the stated 60 months finally came in XX/XX/XXXX, but extended only 42 months with a balloon payment for the full mortgage due XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX, Chase miscoded a bank routing number on a payment and then took months to determine it was their error. Then, Chase interrupted our applications for new financing by starting foreclosure notices. Chase further delayed and hindered our efforts to change lenders.\n\nFinally, after finally being put in touch with the Chase Executive Office in XX/XX/XXXX, Chase agreed, in XX/XX/XXXX to a second modification at our out of pocket cost of {$36000.00}. Chase refused to spread that amount over the ensuing 200 payments in the second modification.\n\nIn both XX/XX/XXXX and upon our XX/XX/XXXX approval of the second modification, Chase promised to A ) adjust late fees, interest charges and legal fees, B ) make sure the credit bureaus knew we were up to date on the mortgage & HELOC, C ) correct Chases superficial appraisal of our home which is at least $ XXXX too low - $ XXXX compared to a complete modification performed by XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX at $ XXXX - and D ) make arrangements to finally add to our line of credit. E ) The rate of interest on the new modification is quite high, 4.87 %.\n\nWe continue to get lip service, run around, rude correspondence and phone conversation from Chase. The letters they have sent to me and your offices have no credibility as they do not address Chase mistakes and the horrible, inappropriate manner of customer service from Chase. The Chase letters repeat their old decisions that were incorrect in the first place.\n\nWe are seniors, never bankrupt, with a Chase debt of less than $ XXXX on our primary/only residence HUD and the CPB valued several months ago at over {$1.00} million. Chase is disregarding the importance of our Senior Financial Health and discriminating against seniors ability to have simple access to less than 49 % of their home equity for medical, improvement, college and living expenses. Further, Chase has been rude and tremendously challenged in delaying proceedings. Chase representatives stall, take months to say its not this department and have told us to find another lender, get a reverse mortgage or move!\n\nWith a tremendous amount of phone, email, letter, fax correspondence shared with your offices and Chase, I must ask that you now step in and hold Chase accountable for this harmful, stressful, prolonged and costly behavior negatively affecting us, and other senior customers. We ask for all fee and interest adjustments and for a favorable arrangement to have access to up to 49 % of our home FMV, without further delay.\n\nPlease respond and thank you for protecting senior citizens who need and deserve your intervention.\n\nWith our sincere appreciation, XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, MA.

I live in XXXX and could really use someones help and guidance with my bank or be a mediator with my issue at hand here.\nMy account was hacked and taken over on XXXX XXXX after I received a call by someone at approximately XXXX by someone posing to be a spark representative. To give a little backstory before I go into what happened, this person hit my FOUND account first and then moved to my other accounts. First ill explain my three banks so no confusion, FOUND is a business account I get paid through from my job as a house cleaner. XXXX XXXX XXXX is the bank my XXXX XXXX payments go into from my XXXX delivery job and BRANCH is the bank XXXX \"used\" to use as a bank to pay us our drivers payments.I had been going back and forth from Branch and XXXX recently before this all happened and was having my payments go into there because I like how the app showed us our balance after each transaction purchased. I also had a job as a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which I don't have anymore but was also having those check deposits go into my XXXX XXXX so I could keep track of the majority of my funds in one place. I also recently moved some funds around as I set up a few savings accounts with XXXX and pockets with FOUND to make things a little more organized for to my personal liking which is why this timing of this type of hack and scam is very odd to me and almost seemed to me as if this person had prior access or authorization on me, has been spying on me, hacked my phone a while ago or used to work for XXXX or XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I bank through because I couldn't understand how he knew all the information he did. To begin On XXXX XXXX all 3 of my bank accounts, email and XXXX driver portal were all hacked into by this hackster. Nearly XXXX was taken from my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX from my XXXX XXXX and XXXX from the FOUND account, all stolen via online money transfers.\nThe call came in as XXXX delivery on my phone at the time and he posed as a XXXX customer care specialist. This man took everything I had in my account with FOUND and my other two banks while hacking into my email and accessing my emails. He saw my personal emails, work emails, bank emails and somehow knew about my three banks even from the start of the conversation not to mention restricting my internet access while during the call. This call also came at an unusual time period considering just a month or so ago I reported to XXXX that something odd was happening to my XXXX XXXX account because I wasnt getting any orders day in and day out for several months and wondered if there was a possibility of someone either remote accessing my phone, using my account, acting as me or using my app and taking my orders. I didnt know what to come if it and had all kinds of suspicions and theories as to what was happening to my XXXX XXXX account. They said it wasnt probable but they would look into it since my ratings were going down without me taking any orders. They said they would follow up with me and not to worry they would get to the bottom of it. Its odd timing only because this man made it sound like thats what he called about and made threatening suspension a likely outcome of my drivers account if I did. Also told me I needed to do a return order on the order I was currently doing because it was canceled and picked up by another driver. He knew of my location telling me to drive to the customers house to attempt order delivery. During the drive he tells me that my XXXX XXXX XXXX that I used that XXXX paid me through was going to be closed and that I needed to stick to using my XXXX XXXX account from now on to be paid from XXXX. He read me my balance that was in there, a total of XXXXXXXX and said he would transfer that to my XXXX account and it should arrive in there by the end of the day. Not processing how he had that information or how he could get into my accounts he proceeded to guide me on how to return this order which I would be compensated for.\nAnother thing is he knew about my FOUND business account. He tried asking me for my FOUND password which I couldn't remember anyways so couldn't give him anything to go off. Once I got to Walmart to return the two items, I told him I was there, since he told me to do so the call disconnected or he hung up . I called back with no answer all it did was ring. Immediately then I knew I was scammed because the call was not answered by a XXXX customer care specialist nor did it have the XXXX recording at the beginning like they do. I thought well there's no way he could of gotten very far since I didn't give him any valuable information but for some reason I had a bad feeling about the whole thing and instantly I had feared the worst. Called frantically someone I knew that worked at XXXX to ask them if they thought I had gotten scammed since I wasn't quite able to look at my account since my internet was down and they had said \"yes that sounds scammy hopefully you didn't give them your SSN\" and I just said \"all I gave them was my DOB, email and last four of SSN and never thought they could use that\" . Only banks, work places, healthcare of that nature have your information like that and can verify that with you I thought. I checked into my account with my FOUND account once I was able to get online and he took over XXXX from my account immediately following the call and then proceeded to XXXX taking out XXXX and then hacked into my email address later on that night around XXXX locking me out so any correspondence from either bank and would go to him. Also Later on that night around same time He changed my personal info in the bank accounts while also hitting my XXXX XXXX around which was the majority of where my money was and left me negative XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX labeled this an account takeover which was my first hearing of such a thing.\nXXXX XXXX and my FOUND BUSINESS account has been nothing but difficult with communication at retrieving anything back in correspondence and I have had to do triple the work to get anywhere and having to re-explain everything to everyone each time has been nothing but a timely fiasco taking me away from most everything else in my life. Ive went to supervisors, managers, and then I went directly to the bank they are either partnered with or who they bank through and spoke to their manager and XXXX CEO . Finally I was able to get somewhere with XXXX as they finally figured out what was going on after multiple escalations to dispute four big transactions to later resolve three of them. They still have yet to dispute another XXXX transaction that they forgot about. They've had to re issue another account takeover and hold my account up for two days while they do a dispute on this charge they should have done months ago but failed to do so or understand. Ive had to countlessly provide lengthy details because there is a lot that is involved but also because they would not understand nor relay information to anyone. This has also been a problem with FOUND and even worse with correspondence or actions to inform me or do what needs to be done to investigate or ask any questions even which is extremely odd almost as if they had their minds made up from the get go and nothing changes even with more information on the case. Ive gotten the same three emails and same three answers regarding their decision in the dispute each time even after more evidence and more explaining as they do not seem to understand either. Ive gotten multiple emails from different people asking to verify my info and then saying \"we haven't heard from you in over two days we will go ahead and close this case then and mark resolved\" after I emailed them more than ample times, also telling them all my points of contact when they would email me from all the different emails I had to make. This just shows how unorganized they are while not communicating with one another. No one gets back to questions I have or comments I make about their email. I had explained on multiple accounts that \"I had to change my email, this is my knew XXXX\" and its as if they never see what comes through from me. The emails Ive gotten always say the same thing too at the end after all my work I put in to gathering my evidence and sending it to each individual person, even XXXX from the bank they bank through XXXX XXXX),I had sent all my evidence to on. First contact with her was on XXXX XXXX . Then a supervisor by the name of XXXX XXXX asked for the decision on the dispute be reconsidered on XXXX and that's when I sent the really pertinent information over that showed XXXX database of that specific order I was doing at the time this all happened and the name of the customer (as he (the hacker) has placed many of these two item orders before) all of which get canceled. How he uses the same fake name with multiple cards. I tried explaining that the customer shown is the person that called me and hacked me. That he is creating these fake orders to get drivers contact info and tries to trick them to do this return all while threatening suspension and then sending a code to their phone to be verified by the driver. That this has not only happened to me, that XXXX has had complaints from multiple drivers of this happening to them. This was on the news, on XXXX posts, all over online, XXXX forums and he does this all over the country. I fell victim to it and they wont even reconsider me or my plea, the only email I get from this XXXX XXXX XXXX explains, \"the nature of the payment in question is an instant withdrawal via a linked debit card, in order for payments of this nature to process they must be initiated from directly within your FOUND account while verifying the pin associated with you account (which is not true because I have never come across this in the past) and that there is no indication that it was compromised prior to these transactions\".\" There were no new devices that gained access to your account therefore ruling out your account was compromised\". I feel like there is something hindering FOUND from giving the money back to me that either they dont understand what has happened STILL and why it is that they wont even credit me during the process of the investigation nor give timelines or act on their word or follow through with follow ups, and have it go way past timelines or they frankly dont want to pay the money. They have not done anything they are supposed to do as a bank should do. From my understanding they are a pretty new online banking system.\nAll I can say is theyve been nothing but resistant and shut me down each time. Im at a point in which I dont know where else to turn or who to turn to since they have made it impossible to communicate anything at all. I am to the point of wanting to file a lawsuit against their company or organization and thought it would be in my best interest to start here first if anything. I cant let this go without trying everything I can to retrieve what was stolen. That was all my hard earned money and for them to deny my tireless attempts as if I have nothing better to do feels as though my words are falling on deaf ears as my plight to recover the stolen funds go unresolved . I am a busy person and this has taken all of my time apart from work since this whole thing happened.\nA total of all funds from all the banks was well over XXXX on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in all accounts from transactions I did not allow and no one was given access to by me and somehow this person hacked into them, transferred money somehow and left me penniless without a way to pay for anything. This was the last I ever spoke to this fraudster/ hacker criminal. The number that came up was an XXXX number (XXXX) when the call ended but said Spark delivery on it when it came through. So I was assuming that is where the call came from. I have all the evidence you could need all I need is someone willing to hear me out, take my statements and evidence into consideration, and take the time to do the work as I have been.Someone that will have my back and protect my finances and losses as I have read their are certain protections in place for consumers and bank customers like me from banks that are not out to protect their own customers and frankly don't care. That I have rights too all I need is someone to go up to bat for me. _W_H_A_T_ The bank I want to file a complaint with while also reporting this hack/scam is now with _W_H_O_ FOUND Date of transactions needing to dispute are on:\n_W_H_E_N_ XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX withdrawal XXXX XXXX from taxes pocket in the amount of XXXX XXXX XXXX withdrawal from primary to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX then a withdrawal to visa debitXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX\nThere was an Attempted transaction oXXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXhat did not go through placed in XXXX XXXX then a:\nTransaction of : XXXX pocket transfer to primary on XXXX @ XXXX and then:\nanother pocket transfer of: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and then a:\nTransaction of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX location New York\nthen a : instant transfer of XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX\n\n_W_H_E_R_E_ scam/hack happened in Missouri : FOUND - no location /online bank - Bank through: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX\n\n_H_O_W_ By scam/hack/fraudster/impersonator/ IdentityTheft/ cyber crime\n_W_H_Y_Stolen funds/account takeover/unauthorized transactions/bank being uncooperative in retrieval, not investigating further of transactions and their destination\n\nFOUND bank was made aware as soon as I could talk to them the following business day XXXX since this all happened at night. I immediately froze the account on XXXX because This person gained full access to it and they were and are still unwilling to listen to anything I had to say nor would look at my emails or attend my calls.\nThey didnt provide me with any information on what to do or what will happen, just froze my account to then later find out that I wasnt able to reach them over the phone with an automated message stating that because of the freeze they are unwilling to take my call. This went on for some period of time to then later still being unable to talk to anyone even after the account was unfrozen. They set a new recording up following that stated that all disputes will be handled through email and that they don't take calls regarding disputes, which was not in place before this incident happened. I needed to promptly speak to them as I had to make them aware that this hacker was changing my account info to a different phone number and email address (XXXX XXXX XXXX) and that I needed it changed back to mine so I can access my account again and regain some form of control back. The day of XXXX XXXX I made sure that they knew that if they got any call or email not from these said contacts of mine that they were not me since I didn't have control over my account anymore and didn't want them not believing me or not knowing who was the right owner of the account. Another thing is they hadn't set any further measures in place to verify my identity for that matter to know they were speaking to the right person. Who was to know if this person would call and contact FOUND reversing any measures I had put in place.\nIt almost feels as if they are the ones at fault here as I didn't receive any alert or notification of transactions or even fraud alert and the destination of where these transactions were sent was in New York. I find it kind of funny and a major coincidence that FOUNDS bank (XXXX) is located in New York. What are the odds? Again Ive sent them numerous documentation and photos, screenshots , evidence upon evidence. Ive never made transactions of this nature with this bank of mine nor with any of my other banks and FOUND doesn't even consider that odd or fishy?\nI have police report that I filled immediately stating the facts and have multiple evidence based reports of this crime and the incident this man is posing on innocent people. I am not the only one. So case in point I got scammed had only verified with the man my DOB and last four of my social and name and email.This scam has shown to wreak havoc on peoples lives and the money they take from people. I have been trying to work with FOUND since XXXX and they continue to turn a blind eye on the situation as I am shedding light on it. I am just as puzzled about this whole thing as anyone and certainly don't understand how something like this can happen and feel like its partly the banks negligence, lack of security, verification set up and protocols put in place when things like this happen. Proper verification processes and means of protecting my funds could have possibly prevented such from happening. By the next day though it was already too late at that time for the freeze to even have made a difference. I changed my account number too but again too late. If I was alerted at first when these occurred I could have saved more transactions from happening.Them not following protocol or following up right away could have made a big difference but no they allowed so much time to pass by and for it to be forgotten about and the matter to have not been dealt with a sense of urgency and time sensitive things could have resulted different but Found only gets back to me when its most convenient for them after multiple attempts of communication and reaching out. I have more than enough evidence and have a full on case in which the police are trying to catch these people who are still doing this.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "bank_account", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/9193310", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/f6ee0d4b015b3d8ad2a9", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 17773, "company": "Indie Technology DBA Found", "date_received": "2024-06-07", "product_raw": "Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service", "issue_raw": "Fraud or scam", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "f6ee0d4b015b3d8ad2a92a2eddb7010797f3c79bbd6ec91e9312b5f10adcf043", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I had tied automatic payment to a savings account and failed to timely transfer funds.

I picked out a vehicle for purchase and contacted State Employees Credit Union to complete the loan process. I spoke with XXXX in the loan servicing center. She said I must fax over proof of insurance on the vehicle, my drivers license, pay stubs, and bill of sale on the vehicle. I sent over all that information and XXXX kept us on hold for over 2 hours coming back to the phone every fifteen minutes asking a question about income and address. At the end of this call at XXXX when the dealership closed at XXXX, XXXX says the application has to be sent to risk management. The salesman stayed over to close the deal, but at the end of the call we where left to wait. XXXX said a member of risk management would reach out to me in the XXXX.\nI took another day off to close this an get my vehicle, but no one called my so I went to my local branch which is number 25. At that time XXXX XXXX comes out because you cant speak to representatives inside due to COVID-19. He then lets me know that the problem with my loan is my drivers license is they are Florida, but I live in North Carolina. No mention of income verification that was mentioned the evening before by XXXX. I explained to them that I tried every day for 2 months to get into a North Carolina DMV, but was not successful. They said I had 120 to take the loan before it expires. Due to not being able to get into the DMV here in North Carolina I took further action and went to go stay with my mother for a few days to get my drivers license in Florida. I verified with State Employees credit union by phone that this would be ok before doing so. They said as long as I have a valid drivers license they dont care what state I get them in. My grandpa passed away two years ago and I came to live with my grandma in NC. Even though I live with my grandma I frequent Florida a lot to visit my mom. I let the bank employee know this. XXXX say he cant do anything further and he then gives me information for XXXX at another branch. I call XXXX and he says he would check with risk management about guidelines. XXXX comes back on the phone after several minutes and says guidelines say as long as my car is insured, titled, and my address is all North Carolina I can get an auto loan. He said he would notate the account and for me to head back over to branch number 25 to pick up my loan check and sign promissory notes. I then head back over to the branch and XXXX calls back out and says there is still a problem, we cant verify your income. XXXX nor XXXX mentioned anything about that. I was told to go pick up my check and now Im given the runaround again. She also proceeds to say she has no income information to verify. Remind you XXXX kept us on the phone phone over two hours the night before discussing my income. Now they dont have it, but they have everything else the dealer sent over. I say to her that I will go get them. I go to a local print store and have the dealer fax me all paperwork sent to the bank the night before and pick up papers. I go back to the bank and give her the paperwork again. She goes back in and comes back out half an hour later and says a family member owns the corporation you work for and we cant extend you the auto loan for that reason. I explained to her that I may be young, but I know that at this point Im being profiled and singled out because I am a young XXXX female. It is now XXXX and Im still getting the runaround. I ask for the number to XXXX to have this matter escalated and she says let me go get it. She returns with the name and number for someone in her branch. Not the corporate information she promised.\nMy mom then call that number even though it was not what I ask for or was promised and spoke to XXXX XXXX. She gets on the phone all nonchalant and says Im district manager and you have to speak to me before you can speak to someone in XXXX. She explains again that this is not fair practices or proper protocol. I want to nip this in the bud now. She puts her on hold and connects her to risk management. XXXX in risk management says all we need to do is verify the income because her check does not come to this bank. My mom offered to print out my bank statement and send. She says no need. If you can open your banking app and show us where you receive a deposit each week that matches the amount on your check stub we can proceed. I then return to the XXXX branch on XXXX XXXX and wait for another hour. An employee not XXXX who was supposed to come out looks at the banking app and verifies the deposits in the same amount of my check stubs for the past four weeks. We wait another thirty minutes and XXXX calls back and says we cant accept because all the deposits didnt go ACH transfer. I ask XXXX if I could bring in the statement because the employee said he didnt see the deposits. He says no bank statements are not good enough we need tax returns now. I ask if it wasnt good enough why did you have me wait an hour for someone to look at my banking app? He has no answer except unfortunately we cant move forward without tax returns. I explained I have none. Im XXXX and have never filed taxes. Although, I have been working for years I have only been working full time since 2020 and I have no tax returns. He says Ol well unfortunately there is nothing he can do. He then connects me with XXXX and she says the same. I ask her why are they being unfair and racially profiling me? She says no its not that. I says yes it is. You ask for proof, I provide what you ask for and you say well that aint good enough. They had me purchase insurance on a car and give me the runaround for two days. I did my research and I know this is not how it goes. I ask XXXX XXXX for her bosses name and she says I cant give you their name, but I can have them call you on Monday or transfer you to their voicemail. She says hold on and hangs up the phone.

Nothing for {$250.00}, {$500.00}, or {$560.00} seems to be related to me in any way.\n\nWhile XXXX is on the phone a representative tells XXXX I made this transaction at The XXXX XXXX XXXX. I try to find out where that branch is and it seems to be in XXXX XXXX, CA. XXXX says to the representative, XXXX was not in Colorado that day she was in XXXX XXXX. I'm totally confused by the comments about XXXX Branch.\n\nAfter an hour or hour and a half or so, XXXX tells me they will let him know something in 24hrs. He never hears back from anyone. On Thursday morning he checks into the matter himself and sees a credit for {$250.00} in my account ; he called me with the update that morning. He says they just made an error in the back office. Im relieved and think the situation is over.\n\nAnd a month and a half later..\n\nXX/XX/2021 : I make a deposit at the branch ATM for {$200.00}. I come home to make sure the deposit shows as pending ( I no longer trust Chase ) and I see they have removed {$250.00} again from my business account and a service fee of {$15.00} for droppingbelow their minimum.\n\nXX/XX/2021 : Once again, I call Chase. For some reason I get XXXX in technical support when I call the number. I then get another representative that says there is nothing they can do for me. I request a supervisor. Supervisor just tells me the same thing - nothing can be done.\n\nXX/XX/2021 : I call Chase and talk to a representative that can do nothing so I request a supervisor. Im place on the line with XXXX ( Supervisor ) and he tells me he will escalate my situation. He tells me to call back Monday morning and ask for the Research & Adjustment Dept. He assures me its an error and they will give me a credit/adjustment. He gives me Ref. # XXXX.\n\nI make copies of all of my documents and drop to teller, XXXX XXXX for XXXX at the branch ( he was with someone in his cubicle ). She says shell give it to him.\n\nXX/XX/2021 I go to follow up with XXXX at the branch and they give me to the bank mgr, XXXX XXXX instead. I can tell no one has bothered to look at my documents. We spend an hour approx. calling 800 # s and they tell him they wont handle this over the phone. He is told I/we need to email my story to them. He types up the details and emails them while Im at his desk. Later that afternoon, he calls me to tell me Ill get some answers within 5 days. I never hear from XXXX ever again as of today XX/XX/2021.\n\nXX/XX/2021 I receive the official letter from XXXX XXXX that says to call XXXX if Id like to see the documentation showing why they have deducted the money from my account. At XXXX I call and get XXXX and she tells me she has no idea what the Ref. # on the letter is referring to. My nail client, XXXX, who used to work for a bank gets involved in my conversation and can not believe how illusive and rude the representative is being to us. We accomplish nothing and hang up in about 30 mins.\n\nXX/XX/2021 I call Chase and talk to XXXX and she tells me there are no notes in my file. I get hysterical and tell her I have called dozens of times, what is she talking about. When I press her hard she tells me she doesnt have access to the notes in my account. At this point we get in a screaming match. She talks over me and refuses to listen. I am irate at this point, ask for a supervisor. I am placed on hold for approx. 15 mins, no one ever returned to the line.\n\nXX/XX/2021 : XXXX Im venting to my client, XXXX XXXX about howd Im being treated by Chase bank. She says lets look on your statement for another XXXX #. We call the number around XXXX. ( We call : XXXX ) I get XXXX, I believe he said he was in Texas. He says I have 6 sets of notes ( cases XXXX in my file. He tells me after placing me on hold on and off for 30-45 mins that they are going to get back to me within 24hrs to reverse the {$250.00} deduction/error. I ask him is this still about the {$250.00} check they say I deposited in XXXX. He says yes, its about that check but now they are claiming I cashed the check but all of the correspondence said I made a \" deposit '' of {$250.00} twice. I'm totally confused! They don't seem to know what happened and they want to just take the money from me without a bit of proof that I am the one who needs to have the {$250.00} deducted from my account.\n\nHow could I possibly cash a check from XXXX XXXX # XXXX for {$250.00}, a XXXX XXXX check made payable to XXXX XXXX. Remember .... that check is stamped for deposit only to named payee and that is XXXX XXXX.\n\nXXXX assures me that I will be contacted about getting my money back in 24hrs. But I never hear from anyone. Not XXXX or his back office or the bank mgr XXXXr - NO ONE! It has been an additional 7-8 days they are refusing to respond to my inquiries ( at the time of this complaint ).\n\nXX/XX/2021 : The bank has now charged me a {$15.00} service fee becauseI I do not trust them to have any money in the account but I want to get this handled before I completely close the account. I decided I can not do this any longer. I drive down to the bank a deal with XXXX XXXX at the teller window. I ask to close my account. She says I may have to wait for a banker to close the account. I told her they havent helped me with anything thus far, please just close the account. She knows about my situation and tells me something to the effect, none of us can help what the back office does, as she rolls her eyes. So apparently everyone in the bank knows the situation. This has cost me months of frustration and dozens of hours. It is embarrassing knowing the whole bank staff has talked about my financial situation and refuses to help me. I can not ever walk in there again, they have demoralized me completely!\n\nWhen I leave I say, See you guys in court.\n\nShe laughs and says, I wont there. The rudeness I've endured should not take place when they are the ones who can not do their jobs.\n\nXX/XX/2021 : I try to follow up on the conversation I had with XXXX last Wednesday @ XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX opt. XXXX. I get ahold of XXXX ; after being put on hold I am disconnected. I call back and get XXXX. He tells me I should hear back about my claim either today or tomorrow. I ask him if I will get notification in writing he says yes. I ask him if the notification will come from XXXX XXXX XXXX, just like all of the others, he tells me she doesnt have anything to do with my claim. I ask if she ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has a phone number I can call, as all of the previous letters have come from her. He tells me she is in the back office and they dont have a phone number. I can tell he cant or won't give me anymore info. I thank him and we hang up.\n\nXX/XX/2021 : Still no response from Chase. Ive consulted an investigator from XXXX XXXX XXXX friend of a friend ) he says they must respond by law and because they refuse to do so, my only recourse is to file written complaints about JP Morgan Chase.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "bank_account", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing an account", "closing": "Closing an account", "opening": "Opening an account", "charged_by_another_company": "Problem with a lender or other company charging your account", "low_funds": "Problem caused by your funds being low"}, "label": "managing", "src": "cfpb_issue_bank_account"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/4298490", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/9ae474f57b1343d08799", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 9185, "company": "JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.", "date_received": "2021-04-15", "product_raw": "Checking or savings account", "issue_raw": "Managing an account", "sub_issue_raw": "Banking errors", "text_sha256": "9ae474f57b1343d087990134dfd7afb8cf4023335d16aa5caa581e2a9a4ef516", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I am a spouse of a XXXX XXXX member.

Despite 11 prior disputes, including Complaint ID XXXX the CFPB has failed to address clear evidence of fraud and AmShers systemic abuses.\n\nUnder 15 U.S.C. 1681n, my client is entitled to {$1000.00} in statutory damages for the CFPBs failure to properly investigate and enforce their rights. The CFPBs inaction has allowed AmSher to continue reporting false information, causing significant financial harm to my client.\n\nKey Issues 1. False and Contradictory Claims In their response to Complaint ID XXXX, AmSher claimed : \" XXXX XXXX does not need to have a contract with AmSher. She does, however, have a binding contract with XXXX XXXX, and they have assigned the account to our office for collection. '' This statement is legally incorrect. Under the FDCPA ( 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ) ), AmSher is required to provide proper validation of the debt upon request, including : A signed legal instrument or contract bearing my clients wet signature, as required under Florida law for a legally binding agreement.\nEvidence proving that my client authorized the account.\nTo date, AmSher has failed to provide any such documentation. Their claim that billing statements suffice as validation is incorrect under federal law, which explicitly prohibits unverified claims from being treated as evidence.\n\n2. Misrepresentation About Fraud Responsibility AmSher further stated : \" If XXXX XXXX XXXX feels the account may have been activated fraudulently, the consumer will need to fill out the Charter ID Theft Form. '' This assertion violates consumer protection laws by unlawfully shifting the burden of proof onto my client. Under the FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ), it is the duty of the data furnisherin this case, AmSherto investigate disputes and validate the accuracy of the information they report. My client is under no legal obligation to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX department, especially when AmSher has failed to provide sufficient validation of the debt.\n\n3. Fraudulent Use of My Clients Credit Report AmSher has engaged in fraudulent use of my clients credit report by reporting inaccurate and contradictory information : Creditor Name : My clients credit report lists T-Mobile as the original creditor for {$460.00}, but AmSher claims the debt is with Charter Communications for {$76.00}.\n\nAccount Status : The account is falsely reported as open on my clients credit report, despite being in collections. This misrepresentation violates the FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ), which mandates accurate reporting of consumer data.\n\nAccount Timeline : AmSher references billing from XXXX 2021, while my clients credit report lists the account as opened on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXXa physical impossibility.\n\n4. False Claim Regarding the XXXX AmSher stated : \" We have forwarded the last billing statements for the months of XXXX XXXX, to validate the remaining amount owed, to the XXXX site. '' This is demonstrably false. A search of the BBB database reveals no listing for XXXX Collections, nor any validation materials available. This misrepresentation further demonstrates AmShers lack of transparency and intent to mislead both my client and regulatory agencies.\n\nLegal Violations Federal Violations FDCPA ( 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ) ) : Failure to provide sufficient validation of the debt upon request.\n\nFDCPA ( 15 U.S.C. 1692e ) : False representation of the creditor, timeline, and account details.\n\nFCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ) : Reporting false and unverifiable information to credit bureaus.\n\nFCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ) : Failure to investigate disputes and validate reported information.\n\nFCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n ) : Willful misrepresentation of information on a consumer report.\n\nFlorida State Violations Identity Theft ( 817.568, Florida Statutes ) : Fraudulent use of my clients personal information constitutes a felony under Florida law.\n\nFraudulent Practices ( 817.03, Florida Statutes ) : Falsifying account information to collect a debt is criminal fraud.\n\nXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. ) : Misleading claims and failure to validate the debt violate Floridas consumer protection laws.\n\nAccountability of the CFPB Under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, the CFPB is liable for statutory damages of {$1000.00} due to its failure to properly investigate and enforce my clients rights. This lack of action has allowed AmSher to continue their harmful practices, causing ongoing harm to my client.\n\nHow AmShers Practices Have Harmed My Client Denial of Credit : My client has been repeatedly denied credit, including the inability to secure a mortgage, due solely to this fraudulent account.\n\nEmotional Distress : The ongoing stress and frustration caused by disputing this matter for over a year have significantly impacted my clients well-being.\n\nDamage to Creditworthiness : The continued prese\nnce of this fraudulent account negatively impacts my clients credit score and financial reputation.\n\nDemands for Immediate Action My client demands the following actions, to be completed within XXXX hours : Permanent Deletion of the Fraudulent Account AmSher must immediately delete this account from all three credit reporting agencies ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ).\nCessation of All Collection Activities AmSher must cease all collection efforts tied to this account.\nCompensation for Damages My client is entitled to {$1000.00} in statutory damages under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, due to both AmShers violations and the CFPBs failure to act effectively on prior complaints.\n\nFormal Investigation of AmSher The CFPB must investigate AmShers systemic violations, including their failure to provide validation, false reporting, and fraudulent claims regarding the BBB and contract validation.\n\nFinal Warning Before Filing With The Courts If these demands are not met within 72 hours, my client will : Pursue legal action under FDCPA, FCRA, and Florida state law.\n\nSeek daily damages for every day this fraudulent account remains on their report.\nEscalate this case to federal oversight agencies to ensure accountability for systemic violations.\n\nConclusion The CFPBs inaction, coupled with AmShers continued violations, constitutes a severe breach of my clients consumer rights. Immediate intervention is required to resolve this matter and prevent further harm.\n\nMy client expects full compliance within the stated timeframe.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "debt_collection", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"debt_not_owed": "Attempts to collect debt not owed", "written_notification": "Written notification about debt", "false_statements": "False statements or representation", "communication_tactics": "Communication tactics", "negative_or_legal_action": "Took or threatened to take negative or legal action"}, "label": "debt_not_owed", "src": "cfpb_issue_debt_collection"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/11024288", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/de181092ca2d3b37ca8e", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6691, "company": "Amsher Collection Services, Inc.", "date_received": "2024-12-04", "product_raw": "Debt collection", "issue_raw": "Attempts to collect debt not owed", "sub_issue_raw": "Debt was result of identity theft", "text_sha256": "de181092ca2d3b37ca8e2a12a27024e3635338e8ab36a6cd7da18006befe8e6a", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I pursued getting product, XXXX mislabeled product poorly packaged without a portion of order.

I was a victim of fraud and my information ( debit card ) was skimmed and copied including my PIN number.\nI initially opened the claim over the phone on XX/XX/2018 the instant I received the alert of my checking account with Chase being below the threshold alert set. I then logged onto my account and saw that my account had various fraudulent transactions of funds being withdrawn at a local Chase Branch in XXXX, CA where I reside. After totaling up the amounts I was at a loss of {$1000.00} and overdraft protection transfer from my savings account. Once the claim department opened my claim, I was advised to go in person to the nearest branch, to have some paperwork sent to them and for them to fax over to them. I was out of town at the time of the incident, nearly 300 miles away from home, where these withdrawals were made on XX/XX/2018 on XXXX XXXX XXXX Chase branch. I went to the Branch in XXXX, Ca and I have proof of my whereabouts as I have receipt of the XXXX ride I used to transport me to the Branch located on XXXX XXXX XXXX.\nI have complied with all the documents, and closely have been monitoring this claim. To my surprise it was denied and closed and was told over the phone there was nothing else I could about it at this point. I find it unfair that the FDIC is not covering my loss over fraudulent activity, and I am hoping I get my money reimbursed into my account as quickly as possible. It has been 5 business days since the incident, and nothing has been done in my favor but rather I am getting the run-around all over within the branches and over the phone.\nAs a customer, I hope something is done to resolve my problem and find a resolution. I have filed a police report, as I am not the only customer who this has happened to this past weekend. Numerous complaints/claims have been opened as there is a fraudulent skimming ring happening in my city, and I am sure that Chase is aware of this situation. If this is not resolved in a timely manner, I will then have to find an alternative route to have this matter resolved.\nI can not be waiting around for long, as I do have bills and cost of living expenses that need to be taken care of and it is unfair I am not getting a provisional credit while the investigation is being made. I do understand that these things take time to investigate, but at this point I am seeking immediate help to get this case taken care of and have the money placed back into my account.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "bank_account", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/2918121", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/442df306c8898b7ce2d2", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "medium", "chars": 2516, "company": "JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.", "date_received": "2018-05-25", "product_raw": "Checking or savings account", "issue_raw": "Managing an account", "sub_issue_raw": "Problem using a debit or ATM card", "text_sha256": "442df306c8898b7ce2d2dc6905ef44fe32ccf6511563b00c56ae518dad858c9f", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I took out a payday loan with 605 Lending ( FSST Management Services , LLC, d/b/a 605 Lending ( referred hereinafter as 605 Lending, LLC ) ) for the amount of {$500.00} after experiencing an emergency. At the time, I was asked to call to complete the loan process where they say their script on the contract, outlining that the agreement I was to be spent should be signed online to complete the process. All this time, the person who is handling my case is providing me with an overview about the interest minimally -- as in the rates are stated on the agreement that they then asked me to sign and submit while they were on the phone with me. I did not have a chance to go through the exact fine print or terms, but was able to see the percentages at the top and the amount owed. They also said that I was to make payments for the next 12 months bi weekly as per my pay schedule, and I went through and logged each upcoming pay date. They also showed via the page I was provided that the loan would be charging an AYP of what at the time I thought was 440 %. Very expensive but being desperate and pressured I signed and received the funds. Later, I was able to log into the account and reread the loan terms but noticed there was a higher interest rate than I previously saw at over 775.96 % and each payment would be {$150.00}, making the loan well over the originally borrowed {$500.00}. I paid as the terms were outlined though unhappily, especially since no one covered nor is it stated how the principal amount would be payed using my payments. As time moved forward and a few payments were made I had a few issues with early payment processing and subsequent overdrafts on my end and asked the company to switch from ACH debit via writing/ email. They agreed, but sent a LONG email with a gist of \" Remember to follow the terms YOU signed and pay this loan, etc. '' which I understood and said thank you for. In this same email I saw that they were then asking that I send my payment or call in for payment 3 DAYS PRIOR to my original due date and that if i did not I was by proxy allowing for them to sign a check in my name for the amounts owed. I declined and called them asking to make sure they knew not only was this not acceptable but unwelcome. I also said that I would not pay until my due date which is my right as the consumer but was met with the same \" Follow your agreement '' line. I again stated this was not acceptable and again tried to reach out where I was again met with opposition. Upon further reading the agreement, they have a section labeled under the ACH/ Debit section stating that as the signee I \" may not revoke the authorization to prepare and submit drafts on my behalf until such times as the loan is paid in full ''. Under thisclause is then another clause stating another payment option called a \" REMOTELY CREATED CHECK ( RCC ) AUTHORIZATION '' and is outlined as such : \" If you elect to make your payments by remotely created check ( otherwise known as a demand, draft, XXXX, preauthorized draft or paper draft ), then by electronically signing this Payment Authorization Agreement you authorize Lender to create checks bearing your name and other information as may be required under applicable law, rather than your handwritten signature, drawn on your bank account below, and to submit each check for payment to your bank or financial institution ( Remotely Created Check ) in the amount of each payment due, under the payment schedule or otherwise to Lender under this Agreement or any amount on any dates on which you and Lender later agree.\nIf a remotely Created Check is returned unpaid by your bank or financial institution, then you authorize Lender to create and submit a Remotely Created Check for any late fees or other amounts accrued pursuant to this Agreement. You agree that your typed name or other designation mandated by applicable law will constitute your authorized signature fully reflecting your intent to authenticate any such Remotely Created Check. If you believe the Lender charged your bank in a manner not contemplated by this Payment Authorization Agreement, then please contact Lender. '' After speaking with my bank the tellers both through the online service and at the physical locations ( separate occasions ) said that an ACH and an echeck are basically the same and by revoking one I revoke the other concurrently. Also, If i do not personally authorize each check it is considered fraudulent.\n\nAt this point I have tried to with no success ask that the lender kindly stop auto drafting from my account but to no success. to date, I have paid {$1200.00} with a remaining balance of {$480.00} -- all of which I am totally unsure as to how I will repay without these drafts. I have contacted the company multiple times and have even attempted to facilitate the issue through the XXXX XXXX XXXX of whom the company did not respond. I am seriously unsure how to proceed and worry this lender will use their means to further hinder my ability to pay off this loan and escape this predatory financial situation.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "personal_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3542692", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/d27d886984e316cd9615", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5093, "company": "Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe", "date_received": "2020-02-24", "product_raw": "Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan", "issue_raw": "Can't stop withdrawals from your bank account", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "d27d886984e316cd9615881d1dfbe8d833b212d4736d6869e73a0e47411c08f6", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I was placed into administrative forebearance XXXX XXXX, and requested a refund for my payment made in XXXX of XXXX.

She is XXXX and due to XXXX XXXX of her XXXX is in a XXXX. A former caregiver is being investigated for physical abuse and neglect as well as theft of her car, money and personal property. She also had possession of my mother 's car. We discovered approximately {$42000.00} in debt had been taken out in my mother 's name. I am her only living daughter and have durable power of attorney. I first began trying to resolve the claim that Chase Credit Department had on XX/XX/XXXX. I went in person with my mother to a Chase bank branch. The branch manager requested Chase bank statements and credit card statements from their corporate office for me to review. I received the bank statements. I never received the credit card statements. It was the opinion of the Adult Protective Services Investigator, the Chase bank manager and myself that the Chase credit card was fraudulently obtained and that the charges were not my mother 's. My mother received a credit card statement on XX/XX/XXXX showing current charges and a past balance. I contacted Chase credit card division and was told I needed to again send them a copy of the Durable Power of Attorney. ( I had previously given one to the bank ) On XX/XX/XXXX, I was contacted by ( NAME OMITTED ) at Chase who told me that this would all be considered identity theft. There would be no further action taken against my mother. My mother received statements showing write-offs. I assumed that everything had been written off. I never received a final accounting or any detail on the charges other than the list that had been written off. On XX/XX/XXXX a year later, I received a letter from ( NAME OMITTED ), a debt collection company who said they were attempting to collect the debt. I responded with the details of my previous conversations with Chase and copies of the previous correspondence regarding the write-offs. My mother received a letter from Chase dated XX/XX/XXXXsaying that I was not authorized to talk on her behalf and that she would have to communicate directly with them. This is not possible and I have a valid Durable Power of Attorney. I again sent the Power of Attorney and again requested detailed information on what comprised the debt. I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX that stated that NAME OMITTED at Chase needed to talk to my mother regarding the fraud claim. I left 6 messages for her and she did not call me back. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called the general Chase credit card line and at XXXX XXXX PDT I spoke to NAME OMITTE. She is in Collections. She said there was a hold on the account and so there was no way to give me the detail for the charge. She did confirm that I was shown as POA for my mother. She transferred me to NAME OMITTED in Fraud. He said that the charges had not been removed as I was told in XXXX and instead the debt was sold XX/XX/XXXX. He confirmed that I was listed as POA but he could not give me any detail and that I had to talk to the person who I had left messages for ( above ). He also said that the notes showed that the person said she had called me back multiple times and I had not returned the call. This is not true. The number I gave her was my cell phone number and there are no records of messages left for me from her or from Chase. He said she probably called a wrong number. He said a letter had been sent to my mother saying the investigation was now closed. They would get a judgment against my mother and then a lien and take her money. He said they would likely use the wrong contact information to notify us of the judgment and lien so we would n't know about it until the money was taken out of her accounts. Additionally, Chase has now opened another new credit card in my mother 's name. She not authorized this card. I have not authorized this card. My mother does not have this or any other credit card in her possession. She is very frail and in a XXXX XXXX.

A 25yrs lease with about 8 yrs used, which requires an annual maintenance fee billed in advance for the up coming year. They have assigned the collection of these fees to a service agent naming them on their Website For Accounts & Financial Services \" Conrad Acceptance Corporation ''. We have never been delinquent since we purchased the timeshare and have always paid on time until now.
\nEnclosed is the XX/XX/XXXX '' s assessment notice of the first Dues Statement dated XX/XX/XXXX describing an itemized list of fees due in total of {$930.00} with a partial payment due XX/XX/XXXX of {$280.00}. No where on this document is there a notice of possible or probable additional collection action after any prescribe dates or time limits. I have also enclosed a second Dues Statement ... dated XX/XX/XXXX, with one line which notes a due date of XX/XX/XXXX, the billing amount of {$600.00}, Past/due, {$930.00}, Late Charge Due, {$0.00}, Vat Tax 7.5 % of {$45.00} and Total Due {$930.00}. Again no where on this document is there a notice of possible or probable additional collection action after any prescribe dates or time limits. Consequently, as a result of financial difficulty and a lack of any written penalty warnings we choose to delayed our payment. I was contacted by phone in XX/XX/XXXX by the Conrad Acceptance Corporation and a message left on my phone requested I call a number. I did at which time I was informed that my account had been referred to their collection department, whom I was speaking to at that moment and informed I had been assessed a collection fees of ~ 1/3 the total amount due, which they were entitled to do, this amounted to {$310.00} additional. The reason given was because I was more than 90 days over due on my maintenance fee assessment. The Service does not, I repeat, does not advance the fee for me. I insisted there was no written notice of any of these now verbalized policies. I was told, what she was now verbalizing to me was the companies long standing policy. Reluctantly I agreed to send partial pay of {$960.00} before XX/XX/XXXX.\nDuring this phone communication with Conrad Acceptance Corporation 's collection department I was given the option by the agent \" only because our time share was 'Paid in Full '' and they had been moved it to their collection department, we were eligible to be offered a walkway deal, to with, we would relinquish our time share rights for a forgiveness of the collection fee, while paying the original dues with late fees off and henceforth have no more obligation nor claim with this ( our ) time share and NO other compensation was offered. This alerted me to a possible fraudulent situation. I asked again \" without written notice how is that possible and why would I be obligated to that policy? I am late in fulfilling my obligation to the RESORT that is no reason to without injury to the Conrad Acceptance Corporation to be assessed an injury fee. Who is being injured here? XX/XX/XXXX I called the Resort, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' in the XXXX XXXX, and complained about the lack of written information from there agents about these policies from them to their customers and they told me after an account goes to there agents collection proceedings they have no more control and would not be able to help us, she went on to say, had we called the resort before their agent put our account into this status they could have done something. I am confused how does any company get to Willie Nellie assess an unwritten, verbally announced, after the fact penalty, when the only injury to them is for them to move an account from one draw to another with a reassignment of an account number. ( They are already the collection agent. ) I thought Late fees assessments after a date were to be noted on a request for payment along with any collection actions to be taken after a certain date. In this case the last late fee noted on the XX/XX/XXXX Statement was {$0.00} with no written warning about collection proceedings.

Due to the importance of timely recertification I submitted my recertification application and proof of income on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX prior to completing my taxes. My husband and I were not yet sure if we were going to file together or separately. I submitted the required income documentation and paperwork stating that we were filing together which of course results in a higher loan payment but my priority at that time was recertifying my loan on time to avoid interest capitalization and I would deal with changing the loan payment later if our filing status changed.\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, I called Nelnet to explain that I would like to change my filing status to filing separately because that is how we ended up filing. Nelnet sent me a prefilled out form upon my request so that I could resubmit my paperwork since my husband and I had ended up deciding to file separately. NOTE : I was instructed PER ONE OF THEIR EMPLOYESS that this was the correct way to submit this documentation and the application was actually PREFILLED BY ONE OF THEIR EMPLOYEES. I am attaching the prefilled application.\nI received a letter XX/XX/XXXX stating that my loan payment would be {$1100.00}. Nothing was wrong at this time as that is the appropriate payment for if my husband and I filed together. I called Nelnet on XX/XX/XXXX to let them know I ended up filing separately and would be resubmitting the paperwork needed for filing separately.\nI submitted the required documentation on XX/XX/XXXX via fax which included the prefilled PAYE recertification paperwork stating that we had filed separately. I included a self-certified letter of my income as well as a copy of my husbands tax return which stated that we filed separately. Although not necessary I even submitted my paystubs to ensure they would have everything they could need to recalculate my payment.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX XXXX pm called Nelnet because I got an email that said action was needed. I Spoke to XXXX she said no further action needed and I would not be overdue for re certification, they have all papers needed. I I was led to believe that I had now submitted everything properly to have my loan recalculated in time for the XX/XX/XXXX payment which was when the new payment was to start.\nXX/XX/XXXX: - I called Nelnet to follow up and make sure the paperwork was in and that my loan payment had been recalculated to the correct amount ( the amount it should be based on my income and filing separately since all paperwork was in ). The woman I spoke to REPEATEDLY assured me everything was in, it looked good and my loan payment would be about {$410.00}. I told her this sounded incorrect as that was my current payment and due to an increase in my income I should be going up by about a couple hundred dollars. She again assured me everything was good and not to worry.\nSince I had been told several times everything was in order and I was very busy with work, caring for my sick mother, and XXXX XXXX obligations, I did not call daily and check my loan status daily as I dont feel that should be necessary.\nXX/XX/XXXX : I received an email stating my loan payment would be {$1100.00}. I called Nelnet and told them this was incorrect as my husband and I had ended up filing separately and I had resubmitted the paperwork as I was instructed to to recalculate based on filing separately. The man I spoke with said it looks like the problem was that on the previous application the box for recertification not recalculation had been checked ( NOTE THIS IS THE BOX THAT WAS PREFILLED OUT BY THEIR EMPLOYEE WHO SAID THAT WAS THE CORRECT ONE ). He said just correct that and it would be no big deal, recalculations are done quickly and it may even be done prior to the XX/XX/XXXX payment. He also told me that I DID NOT need to send in my husbands tax information since we filed separately.\nWhen refilling out the paperwork I felt concerned based on the wording that I DID need to send my husbands information so I called Nelnet to check. The person I spoke with said YES, it will not be used in the calculation but it needs to be sent. Somewhere in this conversation it came up that my interest on my loan may capitalize if I submit a payment RECALCULATION request. I said that sounded wrong to me it is not one of the reasons interest capitalized on the PAYE plan and that I have a right to have my payment recalculated to the proper amount without penalty.\nI was put through to someone higher who said she just didnt know for sure if my interest would capitalize or not if my payment was recalculated so basically I would just have to wait and see after submitting my request. I said that was unacceptable when I have a nearly {$300000.00} loan and those are not thing I can just wait and see about as it would greatly affect my loan and my finances and future. She put me on hold and checked with someone and came back and said I was correct and a recalculation would definitely NOT cause any interest to capitalize.\nI resent all of the paperwork that day, XX/XX/XXXX via email.\nI heard nothing so assumed everything was good and thought there was a chance my new payment would be recalculated by XX/XX/XXXX but if not, definitely by XX/XX/XXXX and I was ok with making one month of the higher payment.\nAs my XX/XX/XXXX payment date approached I had received nothing about a new payment so I called to check in on everything. I was first told that the reason it was wrong was that I was supposed to check the box in the application that said I am married but do not have access to my husbands income information. I said no, that would be lying on a federal form, I check the married box and then later check a box that says we file our taxes separately. She said oh yea, you are right. Then she said the problem was that I had submitted my husbands pre amended taxes that said we filed separately. I took ownership for that mistake and said I would resubmit everything including the correct taxes On this same phone call I asked about the recalculation and interest capitalization because I did not feel confident with the answer previously. This woman then said also your whole loan is to recertify in 2 days so ALL of your interest is going to capitalize. I was nearly in tears at this point and said my account says its due XX/XX/XXXX. She said thats not what she was seeing there and I asked to speak to higher management.\nShe put me through and that woman said it was ok my loan was ot recertify XX/XX/XXXX. She said she just couldnt say for sure however if my interest would capitalize if my loan payment was recalculated.\n\nI submitted all of the correct paperwork ( at least what I was told was correct ) at that time and told the woman I felt very disappointed in the different information I get every time I speak to someone at Nelnet.\nToday, XX/XX/XXXX, I called to check in on the resent information. At first I was told it was wrong because it was turbo tax which was not accepted but then he said actually what I sent was ok.\nHe then told me that just so I am aware, this would unlikely be recalculated by the XX/XX/XXXX payment. When I was previously told it would be done if I had information in a month early. This would mean another month of making a higher payment that I should based on my income and filing status.\nEach time I talk to these people I am told completely different information, some of it causing EXTREME distress- such as saying that my loan is to recertify in 2 days and all of my interest will capitalize when in reality it is not due for another 10 months. Also, going back and forth on telling my that by reCALCULATING my payment to the correct one my interest would capitalize. I have spoken to several upper management who apologize yet do nothing.\nI would like my loan recalculating prior to the XX/XX/XXXX payment if possible. This is not and should not be a complicated process and I have spent countless hours trying to deal with a company that truly seems like they have no idea what they are doing and has no appreciation for what it means to have student loan numbers of this magnitude and how small mistakes can contribute to great amount of money in the life on my loan.\nI have tried very hard to get the correct information to them in a timely manner but it is not possible when I am consistently told incorrect information. I have been severely mislead several times leading to making 2 months of higher payments than I should be. I feel they have no consequences for providing poor and incorrect information and I, the consumer have to pay the consequences.\n\nThese are emails I sent to myself when I realized I should start documenting my conversations with them. Im sorry they are not great, I will from here on out be keeping detailed records of all conversations.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX : spoke to man that said my loan was not recalculated yet because i sent in my husbands tax information which is not needed because we filed separately. I asked to speak to a supervisor. I got on line with __________ she said the problem is that i filled out my application wrong and said I put that I filed jointly. I pulled up my application which is checked that I filed separately from my spouse.She said no you needed to check the bx that says you are married but can not access spouse info. I said that would be lying and I checked the box that said \" married ''. She said, oh yea, actually that is ok but the problem is your tax return says you filed together. I agreed that was wrong and said I will send in the correct one.\n\nThen she said my loan re certification date is in 2 days and my interest would capitalize. I said no my recert date is XXXX and i need to talk to a supervisor. I talked to XXXX who said she can not promise my interest would not capitalize with a repayment. I would need to speak with the department of education and that the other person was wrong and my recertification is XX/XX/XXXX, as I said.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX : I talked to someone and he said the reason my payment is high is it was calculated off of my original recert which said filing together so the following paperwork I sent was ignored because it should have been filed as recalculation paperwork. I was told at this time I do not need to submit my spouse 's tax returns Spoke to XXXX Called back to confirm I Do not need to send marks tax returns because the paperwork makes it seem like I do even thought it would be used. The man I checked with said he would check on it and if I don't get paperwork in by XX/XX/XXXX my interest would capitalize. I said my re certification date was XX/XX/XXXX, and I was told by numerous people at nelnet over the last month that my paperwork was complete and in on time and re-certification was ok.\n\nI was put on hold while he followed up on this. He came back and said to send in my spouse 's income. And become I am applying for a lower payment my interested may capitalize. I asked to speak to someone about this.\n\nTransfered.\nI recorded this part of the call I have an audio recording that is too large to upload but I can find a way to so do if needed.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX : Talked to lady at XXXX who repeatedly confirmed I am up to date they have everything tHey need and it looks like my payment will be about XXXX. I told her that is my current payment and I thought It should Be going up. I confirmed again all paperwork needed is in and account was up to date and there are no issues XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX pm called nelnet because i got an email that said action was needed. Spoke to XXXX she said no further action needed and I would not be overdue for re certification, they have all papers needed.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "lender_or_servicer", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/2952834", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/e7cf1cb685fbeeb456b7", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 11973, "company": "Nelnet, Inc.", "date_received": "2018-07-03", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "sub_issue_raw": "Received bad information about your loan", "text_sha256": "e7cf1cb685fbeeb456b7f13534b48f15baf31711511b051740f4bc5be2f129ee", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I admit that I owe something but the loan amount itself should not be more than {$10000.00} then whatever interest it would have accrued over time.\n\nAlso, the student loan company has taken my tax refund on a couple of occasions.

Now mind you they have yet to send me any paperwork in the mail or anything to tell me when where or how they were going to get sell it so I can have the opportunity to put in offers for my car. They have no communication with me whatsoever it is like trying to pull nails just to get the information so I could at least try to get my things out they kept pulling me around. So the toe company tells me I need to call my finance company I call my finance company to see what was going on they tell me that the company that I had to call in order to get the number to the tow company is the ones that handles all of that and I needed to get in contact with them so I had to call back that number They tell me that they don't understand why the toe company is telling me that because they have no records of it being taken off To auction. The finance company also told me that that company was the ones that cleaned out my car and should have my things if it was taken to auction. So none of this Makes no sense to me whatsoever so nobody knows where my car is so I'm calling and calling and trying to get somebody to give me information because all I want is my things out of it because it's got my son 's birth certificate and a couple of other things to me So then the police department calls me and tells me that they found my car in a different county and this has been months after I've called and called that they would not answer my phone calls they always sent me to voicemail no matter what time it was and when I'd leave a message they would not return my phone calls so this is months later after I've given up I get a piece of paper in the mail stating that I owed them {$10000.00} for the car the car was loaned to me it was only XXXX so then I just found out from my insurance company That they have went and put a claim down on the car to repair the damages after they repossessed it and my insurance company submitted a check to them for over {$3000.00}. In finance company is still saying that I was in {$7000.00} because of what they didn't make from the auction to pay the whole amount and a bunch of toe fees and stuff like of this makes sense to me nobody gave me any information I was trying to just get my things out and they wouldn't even do that for me they have subcharged me they had not given me a chance to be able to do anything with the car I had even got a check from a claim that was different than the one that I'm talking about they did and tried to put {$3000.00} on my car and they wouldn't take it I guess because it had already been in repossession I'm not quite sure why I don't think it's right that they were able to go through my insurance company and file a claim to get payment for it to repair it After repossession and still charge me the amount that they're charging me", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "vehicle_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing the loan or lease", "end_of_loan": "Problems at the end of the loan or lease", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan or lease", "repossession": "Repossession"}, "label": "repossession", "src": "cfpb_issue_vehicle_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/6896318", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/793adffb671a969f73fa", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4395, "company": "Exeter Finance, LLC.", "date_received": "2023-04-27", "product_raw": "Vehicle loan or lease", "issue_raw": "Struggling to pay your loan", "sub_issue_raw": "Loan balance remaining after the vehicle is repossessed and sold", "text_sha256": "793adffb671a969f73faaab9145c37de2d4e7a60191c03691e0c72c943262500", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "XX/XX/XXXX I used my XXXX/debit card from XXXX XXXX XXXX to wire {$2500.00} to a man in XXXX.

I was told in my private messages another ten vague answers. I was told they were sorry. They were working on it. I was told they themselves were customer care and then three times I was given contact email for customer care. Nothing made sense. All evasive. At this point, a week and some hours past my payment to them with no service received, I have no answers other than those listed. \" We are working on it. '' More than one person, when I pressed for specifics, told me that once the process began, it would be 7-10 bank days but the process has not even begun. The irony is that their fee is for being a wire service yet it will take them nearly two weeks to process my refund, once they begin that process, which has yet to be determined. It 's an endless stream of vaguery and passing the buck within their system. An intensely frustrating part of this is that they make it close to impossible to contact a human and when I have been able to, I am told that human ca n't do anything but contact another human, only by email. There seem to be no actual humans available for help. I have paid for a service I did not receive. They have had a significant sum of my money and given me no concrete indication as to why they cancelled my transaction or when I 'll get my money back. I went to a XXXX XXXX XXXX yesterday after I was paid and spent {$25.00} to have them wire funds to the man who has been waiting a week to be paid. This money was from my account, so I 've doubled my out of pocket expenses until I am refunded. I need to pay my mortgage and can not without my money back. My complaint includes money out, time out, late charge pending for mortgage, total disregard for humans on the part of this big business. In my supporting documents I will include screenshots of my email confirmation from them, my email to the \" back office, '' where I was told to log my complaint internally, and the automated response back. I have received no other emails from them other than the automated response after receiving my complaint. I will also include screenshots of my XXXX correspondence with them. I could also screenshot my phone calls to them and the length of phone calls totaled. I have a document from XXXX XXXX confirming the wire transfer I made yesterday to pay the gentleman I owed. I am happy to provide whatever is needed. My frustration is that these big entities seem to be able to do whatever they want to do without having to be held accountable. And I truly need my money back.

The CFPB 's page : https : //www.consumerfinance.gov/ask-cfpb/how-do-i-stop-automatic-payments-from-my-bank-account-en-2023/ explains that \" You have the right to stop a company from taking automatic payments from your account, even if you previously allowed them '' as we would expect. The supporting ( linked ) suggested letters for the company and for the bank which are provided on that CFPB page ALSO make it plain that we have the right to request that any and all auto debits from a previously authorized company cease. Also, one form on the Union Bank website, here : https : //bankingsso.unionbank.com/web/customerservice.do under the \" Automatic Payments '' choice, where a form is given called \" Automatic Payment Authorization '' states \" This authorization will remain in effect until you ( meaning the bank ) receive a written notice of termination from me. '' Same story. And yet, not one of the six people I've spoken to at the bank ( actually there was one who thought I could do this but who could only suggest that I go into the branch to do this ) has told me that this is even possible, let alone provided a form to revoke an authorization or said \" Yes you can come into the branch and do this '' - quite the contrary, i.e. they've all said, no, you can't do this. I have explained numerous times now that this power of the account holder is required under federal law, yet the bank is simply incapable of honoring this obvious and gigantic security loophole closure which defends against fraudulent and incompetent debiting, both. The Union Bank web page is only accessible to account holders for you to get the form, but I can provide you with a PDF copy of their Auto. Pmt. Auth. form if your site allows me to after this point in the process of filing a complaint. This issue arose because an honest company with an incompetent bookkeeper debited our checking account for {$15000.00}, when the debit should have been XXXX or at most a few XXXX dollars, owing to two errors. I was forced to put a stop payment on the debit, which was an option for me only on account of sheer luck as this debit triggered a low balance warning text message to my phone. I would have had to rely on the good faith AND good sense of the company to refund the money had I not placed the stop payment successfully. And having placed a stop payment, I could expect that they might again debit the account for the same errant amount or a different errant amount.\n\nThe bank has said instead that I can : 1 ) Place a stop payment on any given debit, should I notice it in time, for a {$30.00} fee 2 ) Close the account after opening a new one, and transfer over all of the other auto debits and deposits by informing each of those entities of the change 3 ) Place the account into a deposits and credits only mode, so that no checks will be honored and no EFT debits will be honored 4 ) Contact the company making the debit and tell them not to do it ( which would obviously not work in the case of fraud or dispute over an owed amount, which could result from incompetent bookkeeping as in my recent experience ) None of these remedies is acceptable as a proper solution to the need to terminate a given entity 's right to withdraw funds from an account. Who will see to it that every bank in America provides us with this obviously-needed capability? Please see to it that Union Bank and every other bank provides customers with : A ) The unfettered right to terminate any and all EFT withdrawals from your account by any given previously authorized entity, regardless of changing dollar amounts or changing dates or changing frequencies -- no if 's, and 's or but 's and no uncertainty about it working, via a reasonably straightforward procedure, indeed by the procedure outlined on the CFPB 's own website as mentioned above.\nB ) The right to limit EFT withdrawals to a certain range of dollar amounts and a certain range of dates of each month and a certain number of times each month or on some similar schedule. These items may not currently exist as rights, but obviously should, as basic protections against fraud and financial errors made by third parties ( who do not own our money ). Duh.\n\nAlso please make sure that there are no loopholes which any entity can use to take funds from our accounts, aside from state and federal agencies carrying out their duties according to the law, after we have chosen to terminate their right to take money from our accounts, having previously authorized them to do so.\n\nThank you!

CARVANT FNCL Account XXXX Please correct this inaccurate information on my credit report. I recently pulled my credit report from your Bureau and my attorneys and I had a chance to go over my credit report and in amazement, that you have decided to report me 30 days late on this account in XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nI immediately disputed this information with CARVANT FNCL and the results of the investigation came back \" verified ''. Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously \" verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of \" records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. ( 6 ) Failure to transmit the statement required under section 1637 ( b ) of this title to the last address of the obligor which has been disclosed to the creditor, unless that address was furnished less than twenty days before the end of the billing cycle for which the statement is required. ( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the Bureau. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts. ( b ) Reports by creditor on delinquent amounts in dispute ; notification of obligor of parties notified of delinquency If a creditor receives a further written notice from an obligor that an amount is still in dispute within the time allowed for payment under subsection ( a ) of this section, a creditor may not report to any third party that the amount of the obligor is delinquent because the obligor has failed to pay an amount which he has indicated under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, unless the creditor also reports that the amount is in dispute and, at the same time, notifies the obligor of the name and address of each party to whom the creditor is reporting information concerning the delinquency. ( c ) Reports by creditor of subsequent resolution of delinquent amounts A creditor shall report any subsequent resolution of any delinquencies reported pursuant to subsection ( b ) to the parties to whom such delinquencies were initially reported. 1666b. Timing of payments ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Because I take my credit very seriously, I contacted every name and account that was listed on the report. I was again very shocked by the multiple names, account numbers and figures. Included with this letter, is every letter written to those who have hampered my ability to obtain credit. I believe that any judge that looks over the report would agree that it is a violation of both the FCRA, CCPA and FACTA. The following accounts were listed on your report and I have demanded from them a full accounting and five years worth of records to see if their accounts were in violation of the FAIR CREDIT BILLING ACT ( FCBA ). We also demanded signed contracts, agreements or any legal paperwork that would tie us to the following accounts. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct an investigation on this account if I request it. I DEMAND to see all 100 % verifiable proof that I was indeed Verifiably late on these accounts and the creditor fulfilled its obligations under ( FCBA 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) ), As I was never notified of a billing delinquency on my accounts, which the creditor must do under section ( FCBA1666 ( b ) ( 6 ). I DEMAND to see proof that I was mailed my statement to the correct address notifying me of both payment due date and delinquency of payment on the account. If you can not provide 100 % Verifiable proof and proper documentation that the CREDITOR fulfilled its obligations under the ( FCBA ) and ( FCRA ), I therefore demand these late payments be removed from my account or I will be forced to be in contact with the Attorney General of my State and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Cash Central duped me into loans for which Cash Central charged outrageous fees. Cash Central lured me into this trap and collected thousands of dollars. As recently as today, Cash Central has tried to claim it did me a favor by waiving more than {$3400.00} in additional fees it could have charged. Cash Central is trying to appear as the consumer hero with this action. Cash Central did waive ~ {$3400.00} but only when I filed a complaint. There are two different ways to look at what Cash Central did as wrong. The first is to consider the loans I took as payday loans. In California, the limit on a payday loan is 15 % of {$100.00} borrowedor {$15.00} for every {$100.00} borrowed. Payments were due on my paydays. Therefore, these loans were payday loans. No if, ands, or buts about it. By definition, payments were due on paydays making these payday loans. I have filed repeated complaints with the XXXX XXXX XXXX, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Federal Trade Commission, and California Office of Business Oversight and will continue to do so. I have repeatedly attempted to resolve this directly with Cash Central and its parent company, Community Choice Financial. I have now been told three times to call XXXX to speak to a loan agent to resolve this matter. The first time I did, I clearly was connected to a call center not located within the United States. The next two times, the loan agent had no idea what I was calling about. I am being sent in circles as a way to deter me from pursuing my claims. I have done extensive research into this issue. In late XXXX, early XXXX, the state of California finalized a settlement against Community Choice Financial. Like I am now doing, California accused Community Choice Financial ( Cash Central ) of overcharging borrowers. As an article I found stated, Community Choice Financials recent government action over unscrupulous lending practices is more than a little disconcerting. I am a victim of this unscrupulous lending and am fighting for justice. Another article states A California payday lender is refunding about {$800000.00} to consumers to settle allegations that it steered borrowers into high-interest loans and engaged in other illegal practices, state officials said. Again, I am one of these borrowers steered into a high-interest loan! The article continues to state that Californias settlement against Community Choice Financial involves alleged violations regarding administration of payday loans, which are capped at {$300.00}, and the steering of borrowers into consumer loans of more than {$2500.00} to avoid rate caps. California law limits interest on loans of up to {$2400.00} at between 20 percent and 30 percent, but there is no cap for loans of {$2500.00} and larger. Steering consumers into higher-cost loans to circumvent statutory interest rate caps is abusive, said XXXX XXXX XXXX, commissioner of the Department of Business Oversight. Consumers deserve protection and access to lending markets that are fair, transparent and comply with the law, she said. Every single aspect of my situation is a direct example of what California settled against Community Choice Financial. On XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, I borrowed {$200.00}. With the payday loan limit of 15 % per {$100.00} borrowed, I should have only paid back {$230.00}. I paid back {$230.00}. On XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, I borrowed {$250.00}. With the payday loan limit of 15 % per {$100.00} borrowed, I should have only paid back {$290.00}. I repaid {$290.00}. This is when the unscrupulous steering of me into a high interest loan happened. I stupidly contacted Cash Central again and was steered into borrowing {$2500.00}. As stated above, California law limits interest on loans of up to {$2400.00} at between 20 percent and 30 percent, but there is no cap for loans of {$2500.00} and larger. Cash Central purposely steered me into this higher-cost loan to be able to circumvent statutory interest rate caps. Had Cash Central kept the loan below {$2500.00}, the rate would have been capped at 20-30 %. In the interest of Cash Centrals profits, I will use 30 % as the amount. On a loan of {$2400.00}, 30 % is {$740.00}. Had I borrowed {$2400.00}, I would have had to repay {$3200.00}. Instead of this honest form of lending, Cash Central steered me into borrowing $ XXXXin fact, I was told that was the only option. If Cash Central could lend me {$2500.00}, it could lend me {$2400.00}. This is deceptive, predatory lending. I made two payments of {$190.00} each ( total {$380.00} XXXX. At the rate of 30 %, this would reduce my owed balance from {$3200.00} to {$2800.00}. Cash Central, however, took advantage of knowing I was in a financial crisis. I would never be doing business with them if I was not. Cash Central enticed me into refinancing and getting an additional {$1200.00}. I foolishly agreed. I had now borrowed {$2500.00} plus {$1200.00} and repaid {$380.00}. At a fair rate of 30 %, my fee should have been {$1100.00} for the {$3700.00} borrowed. To be free of my debt to Cash Central, at the fair rate of 30 %, I should have only had to pay a total of {$4800.00}. Again, at this point, I had repaid {$380.00}, so my balance due should have been {$4400.00} if Cash Central acted in a fair, just non-predatory manner. I continued making payments. I continued to struggle financially due to the trap Cash Central had put me in with the high cost of the loan. By XX/XX/XXXX, I had paid a total of {$4900.00} for the {$3700.00} I had borrowed. I had paid {$94.00} more than I should have for a fair 30 % loan. I kept paying and paying. By XX/XX/XXXX, I had paid an additional {$1400.00}. By XX/XX/XXXX, I had paid a total of {$6300.00} for the {$3700.00} I borrowed. I paid {$2600.00} in fees72 %!!!!! This was {$1500.00} more than the {$1100.00} had the loan been issued at the fair and just rate of 30 %. At this point, I was financially drowning and did not know how to break the cycle. Cash Central enticed me with another refinance saying my payments would be lowered. Of course, I needed lower payments so I accepted the offer. As a result, Cash Central deposited {$100.00} in my checking account and my payments dropped to {$200.00}. To keep up with the math, I had now borrowed {$3800.00} and repaid {$6300.00}. On a fair and just 30 % loan of {$3800.00}, the fee would be {$1100.00} meaning once I repaid {$4900.00}, I would be paid in full. Remember, I had paid {$6300.00} at this point. I should have been more than paid in full but no. I kept paying. I made two payments of {$200.00} adding an additional {$410.00} to the {$6300.00} I had already paid bringing my total to {$6700.00} for {$3800.00} borrowed. I paid {$2900.00} in fees78 %!!!!!!! At this time, I filed a complaintand yes, Cash Central waived the remaining due. Can you imagine? Had I paid another {$3400.00}, my total would have been {$9700.00} for {$3800.00} borrowed!!!! {$5900.00} in fees!!! 157 %!!!!!!! The 78 % I paid is disgustingI have no words for 157 %! Community Choice Financial ( Cash Central ) is not the hero for waiving the {$3400.00}. Community Choice Financial ( Cash Central ) steered me into this high cost loan cycle. Had they been willing to lend no more than {$2400.00} with the 30 % cap, it would have been a completely different story. I stand by my assertion that I am one of Community Choice Financial ( Cash Central ) s victims. As the California settlement against Community Choice Financial ( Cash Central ) dictates, I am due a refund of the excess fees I paid. I paid {$2900.00} when 30 % of what I borrowed is {$1100.00}. I am due a refund of the excess paid in the amount of {$1800.00}. I stumbled upon this settlement when showing a friend why she should not do business with companies like Community Choice Financial ( Cash Central ). I demand resolution in the form of the refund I am owed based on the settlement California entered into against Community Choice Financial ( Cash Central ).", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "personal_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"unexpected_fees": "Charged fees or interest you didn't expect", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay your loan", "making_payments": "Problem when making payments", "payoff": "Problem with the payoff process at the end of the loan", "getting_the_loan": "Getting the loan"}, "label": "unexpected_fees", "src": "cfpb_issue_personal_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3359613", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/51f3fad0eb9200ad5588", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 8089, "company": "COMMUNITY CHOICE FINANCIAL, INC.", "date_received": "2019-08-30", "product_raw": "Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan", "issue_raw": "Charged fees or interest you didn't expect", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "51f3fad0eb9200ad55880190ea6a4f2e63fe76343bbfa81b0af474ff49e5bb87", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I filed a report with cfpb on XX/XX/XXXX # XXXX.

The inaccuracies and incorrections found on a consumer report can have an adverse effect on my buying power and prove how a consumers information can be mistaken by the credit agencys use of mixed or merged information with someone with same/similar name.\n\nI reviewed my consumer report and found a collection account with partial numbers XXXX @ {$290.00} with CREDIT CONTROL SERVICE. I do not know where this account came from, who this company is, nor have any record of any type of first notice of debt including rights to dispute from this company. And if I, by chance, even though I have no recollection nor tangible record, naively spoke with a representative of this company over the phone about this debt or made any type of payment to this company, I was not informed by any representative that I had a right to dispute this debt nor a specific timeframe to do so. My consumer report also shows different opening dates, balances, first date of delinquency, balance due, and/or last date of activities for this same exact account number, which is illegal.\n\n15 USC 1692g 809. Validation of debts ( a ) Notice of debt ; contents states that within five days after the initial communication with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt, a debt collector shall, unless the following information is contained in the initial communication or the consumer has paid the debt, send the consumer a written notice containing ( 3 ) a statement that unless the consumer, within thirty days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector. XXXX XXXX XXXX definition of the word receipt is- a writing acknowledging the receiving of goods or money ; proof, evidence. I never signed nor received any type of acknowledgement receipt from a postal service for mail from this company. I am aware of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). I am now aware that a company has to communicate and send me proper documentation, I wouldve immediately responded asking for lawful verification of debt or copy of court ordered judgement well within the lawful 30 days allotted. After receiving my response letter with receipt, this company would have to legally cease from collection attempts and remove the account from my credit reports until their proof of verification is sent back to me. This company has reported to my credit reports without observing the FDCPA laws. My credit has been impacted adversely because of this companys irresponsibility.\n\nMy credit reports also show that CREDIT CONTROL SERVICE has provided this alleged account with inaccurate information. The FCRA requires that all data reported from the credit reporting agencies, creditors, or furnishers on a consumer 's report be 100 % ACCURATE, 100 % VERIFIABLE, and 100 % TIMELY. This means no data can be reported that can't be legally PROVEN to be 100 % accurate. I also understand that medical collections under {$500.00}, a paid medical collection, a collection less than a year old, or having a past due balance found on a collection account should not be listed on consumer credit reports. My XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX credit reports all show different and inaccurate open dates, balances, first date of delinquency, balance due, and/or last date of activities for this same exact account.\n\nThis is erroneous and flawed reporting that is listed on my credit reports. Not only did CREDIT CONTROL SERVICE not follow lawful FDCPA communications protocol, but it has also broken FDCPA False or Misleading Representations protocol as well. A debt collector, in collecting a debt, may not use any false, deceptive, or misleading representation. Specifically, a debt collector may not falsely represent the character, amount, or legal status of the debt, or of any services rendered, or compensation he or she may receive for collecting the debt. A debt collector may not communicate, or threaten to communicate, false credit information or information that should be known to be false, including not identifying disputed debts as such. Each of my 3 credit reports show different information instead of them all showing the exact same information. This is considered a false and misleading representation that this company has submitted to the credit reporting agencies.\n\nPlease remove this account from my credit reports immediately. It is not my duty to provide evidence that this alleged debt is not mine. It is the obligation of the debt collector to provide evidence that they can lawfully collect on any alleged debt, accurately report to the credit agencies, and follow all FCRA and FDCPA laws.

Unfortunately, due to an error in the provided account number, the funds were not directed to me as the intended recipient.

However, it's crucial to note that the letter did not address or correct the account number error but instead informed XXXX XXXX that they havent received a response from Chase Bank.\nI am perplexed by the discrepancy in the handling of wire transfers versus checks with differing names. Chase bank accepted and deposited the transfer despite a discrepancy in names, whereas conventional banking practice restricts cashing checks with differing names. This inconsistency raises concerns about the handling of such transactions and the protocols followed by banking institutions.\nMoreover, I contacted Chase bank regarding the accidental recipient of the wire transfer. They informed me that the individual who mistakenly received the {$20000.00} has already spent the entirety of the funds. Chase mentioned they are working on the matter, but their inability to guarantee the recovery of such a significant amount is deeply troubling. As a financial institution, ensuring the accuracy and security of transactions is fundamental, and the inability to ensure the recovery of substantial funds is concerning and unsettling.\nAs the intended recipient, this situation has caused considerable inconvenience and financial hardship. Despite efforts to rectify the error and clarify the correct account details, the funds have not been redirected to my Chase bank account. Over the phone Chase bank said that there is nothing they could do because it wasn't their fault and that they just \" hope '' that the person who accidently received the transfer returns it but there isn't anything that they can do.

We never had any issues while with XXXX, which we had for years, and used the card in the exact same manner. As soon as Ally took over, my card started getting shut down approximately once every other month with no notification to me other than finding it denied when going to make a purchase. Each time, I had to contact the card company, waiting on extensive hold times. They informed me each time that it was shut off due to potential fraud because I was making multiple payments each month, paying off the card. Yes I make multiple payments each month, as I do not want to carry a balance and accrue interest. I have never had this issue with any other card. Each time I spoke with Ally, they guaranteed they were noting on my account to shut off that fraud prevention trigger. And each time my card has continued to be shut off. After performing some searches and reviews on the Ally bank, I found this issue is very widespread. At this point, based on the bank 's continued fraud trigger excuse, I allege that the card company is purposefully trying to dissuade consumers from paying off their card, forcing consumers to carry balances, in order to accrue interest. I do not know if this is illegal, but it certainly should be. I would have already switched cards, but I had so much set up on autopay, it would have been very difficult.\nThen sometime XXXX XXXX, my card was shut off yet again. I called and they claimed the same reason. However, this time they told me in order to get my card active again, I had to get them a letter from my bank. I spoke to the bank who firmly stated they would never give such a letter to a credit card company, nor should the card company request such a letter. I called Ally back, explained this, and they were miraculously able to get the card turned back on without a letter from my bank on XX/XX/XXXX.\nXX/XX/XXXX, the card was shut off yet again! For the same reason. I had made maybe a few purchases that had to go through due to autopay, and paid off the card, which apparently triggered it being shut off again. When I called back this time, they said it was on a 5 day hold required by their bank ( is Ally not the bank? ) due to the fraud trigger with which no employee of Ally could do anything about. This 5 day hold has never been required before. Waited 5 days and called back, still on the 5 day hold. Waited a few more days and called back, still on a 5 day hold. This 5 day hold lasted for several weeks with me calling every few days, until I finally gave up and filed a complaint through the XXXX. Ally responded to the complaint saying they were waiting on the same letter from my bank they had requested the previous time they had shut off my card, which turned out they did not need. I responded with the same response I had given previously, that their response was not satisfactory, that the bank will not provide this letter. I have not received another response from the XXXX complaint. However, when I called Ally back, they are no longer saying they are waiting on this letter, they are saying my account is under review, and there is nothing anyone can do about anything. So now my account has been under review since XX/XX/XXXX with repeated attempts to contact and many hours wasted on hold. Throughout this time, I have received NSF charges from various accounts who have tried and failed to be able to charge this card on file for autopay. I have now redirected all accounts away from this card. I have contacted Ally and advised them, i no longer desire the card to be reactivated, as you would think that is the problem. No reactivation, no problem, right? Nope. I just want to apply the many, many points I have accrued to the remaining balance, pay it off, get my statements, and close the account. Should not be difficult, right? Nope. They will not apply the points, they will let me pay off the card, but nothing else. I need my statements in order to file taxes. I do not have access to my online account, nor will they email me the statements. Why will they not even email me my statements? Those are mine which I would have if I had not enrolled in paperless statements. Those are my records; refusing my access to my records has got to be illegal.

I sent an email to their executive relations department explaining that I did NOT exceed purchase limits of 3 copies of each title per platform, per year, per member. I received a call from XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to which he confirmed that my points were removed from my account because of gross abuse of their XXXX XXXX XXXX program. He confirmed that I was very careful in that I purchased the up to 3 copies limit on most if not all of my purchases. Based on that conversation, Best Buy has confirmed that I did NOT violate the terms and conditions of their program, which again is 3 copies of each title per platform, per year, per member.\n\nBest Buy 's statement in that I exceeded their limits of 3 copies of each title per platform, per year, per member on more than one occasion over the last 12 months is false. \" The over the last 12 months '' is a condition that was never added to their published terms and conditions nor was I ever made aware of it. I have purchased more than the limit of 3 copies of each title per platform, but they were in different years ( i.e. XXXX and XXXX ). Therefore, I did NOT exceed purchase limits of 3 copies of each title per platform, per year, per member.\n\nThere was no merit in claiming that I exceeded limits of 3 copies of each title per platform, per year, per member. Therefore, Best Buy claimed that there was gross abuse of their XXXX XXXX XXXX program. What is considered gross abuse of their program? There is no mention of the terms \" gross abuse '' in their terms and conditions. What activities or behaviors qualify as gross abuse? Best Buy could not fault me for exceeding purchase limits so they decided to come up with this \" gross abuse '' claim, which is absolutely subjective and basically allows them to cancel my membership and reward points as they see fit.\n\nThe XXXX worth of My Best Buy reward points ( which has a value of {$410.00} ) were earned not only from using the XXXX XXXX XXXX membership to purchase games with their Best Buy credit card, but from using my Best Buy credit card to make purchases outside of Best Buy. The removal of my entire point balance is clearly theft. The points had a cash value even though the points can only be converted to reward certificates ( in {$5.00} denominations ) to be spent only at Best Buy. My points were removed from my account for reasons that can not be supported.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, Best Buy decided to cancel their XXXX XXXX program and not allow any new membership signups, but allowed existing paid memberships to continue their benefits until expiration. My paid XXXX XXXX XXXX membership expires in XX/XX/XXXX. Isn't it convenient that shortly after Best Buy decided to end the program that they claimed that I was in violation of their program 's terms and conditions and therefore allows them to cancel it? I've been a member of their XXXX XXXX XXXX program since inception. I've not once violated their program terms.\n\nEven though I've kept track of my purchases so as to NOT exceed limits of 3 copies of each title per platform, per year, per member, why would a company of Best Buy 's size NOT have a system in place to prevent purchases over the established limits? The terms and conditions are in tiny fine print, which are NOT communicated to customers upon signup and purchase of the paid XXXX XXXX XXXX membership. There are NO warnings that remind a customer about the limits both in store and online. Both in store registers and the online system allow customers to purchase over and above the limits, which is a HUGE flaw in their efforts to ensure limits are followed by customers.

If not intentional, it shows that Bank of America’s compliance program for handling of a stolen credit card and subsequent credit dispute is insufficient, resulting in abusive treatment of customers. I am only one person, and given my repeated attempts to resolve this, I expect that Bank of America is doing the same thing to trick other customers. Background:On XX/XX/XXXX, my wallet was stolen while I was on vacation, and the thief charged $XXXX to my Bank of America credit card for XXXX gift cards at XXXX in XXXX, CA. Minutes later, when the thief tried to buy more gift cards, Bank of America’s fraud alert program identified the problem, declined the charge and sent me a fraud alert, which is how I realized my wallet had been stolen. The police were called and a police report made. I closed all my credit cards and bank accounts and placed a freeze with the credit bureaus. Bank of America immediately re-credited the $XXXX charge by the thief. Strangely, since they were the ones who identified that the card had been stolen, Bank of America then declined the fraud dispute, re-charging the $XXXX back to my account, but after several phone calls and an in-person meeting at my Bank of America branch, they again reversed that charge. Then, when reviewing my April credit card statement, I saw that Bank of America (not a merchant) had made two charges on my credit card on XX/XX/XXXX, for $26.18 and $XXXX, labelled “Fraud Dispute.”. When I called to ask what this was, the customer service agent said they were related to merchandise returns I had made in XXXX XXXX, New York – on XX/XX/XXXX for $XXXX and on XX/XX/XXXX for $XXXX. These transactions had nothing to do with the theft! The amounts are different, obviously not the $XXXX in gift cards that the thief had charged across the country in California. And Bank of America never contacted me before making the very strange decision to just add it to my bill. It can’t possibly be legal to add charges to my bill without any documentation or contact – they are just stealing from me. Also, since the legitimate merchandise returns to XXXX had occurred months earlier and had been properly credited, I woudln’t even be looking for them. If I hadn’t carefully reviewed the statement, Bank of America would have gotten away with the fraud. Current:But actually, so far Bank of America is getting away with defrauding me because they still haven’t corrected their error! I always pay my credit card bill balance in full, so have paid the false charges because I want to keep my high credit score. Here are my attempts to resolve the situation and the unacceptable response of Bank of America.On approximately XX/XX/XXXX, when I discovered the unauthorized charges by Bank of America, I called the customer service department. The agent explained to me that they were recharging me part of the $XXXX that was charged by the thief – inaccurately believing that my merchandise returns to XXXX were somehow related to that. (Again, without any documentation or outreach to me this is deceptive and fraudulent!) However, the agent apologized and said the false charges would be reversed immediately. I paid the full bill, expecting that the credit would appear on the next statement.A couple weeks later, the charges had still not been reverse and I called back. This customer service agent again explained that they believed that both Bank of America and XXXX were refunding me for the same $XXXX theft (though how they thought $XXXX and $XXXX that XXXX identified as “merchandise return” were related to the $XXXX purchase of XXXX gift cards is something that no one can explain.) I explained, again, was put on hold for a long time, and eventually told that it would take 45 days to do an investigation. So, 45 days later, I called back again, went through the same song and dance, but this time, after a long hold, was told that the agent had spoken “with the back office” and there was nothing they could do about it! I was very angry.Finally, earlier this week I called again, hoping to get a competent agent. This time, the agent was knowledgeable, read the notes in the file, filed an official dispute of the charges (which none of the prior calls had produced) and suggested that I provide receipts from the merchandise returns. Unfortunately, since it is now XXXX and the merchandise was returned (and properly credited by XXXX) in XXXX, I no longer have receipts. So I spent an hour on the phone with a lovely customer service agent at XXXX who has found a copy of the receipt for $XXXX. We have not yet been able to find the $XXXX documentation. Please keep in mind that I have dozens of transaction at the XXXX near my home and often return part of the purchase. Since XXXX ties the merchandise returns to the original purchase, I need to figure out what day I purchased items that were then returned.) I have spent HOURS working on this. I don’t understand why I am having to prove this, when Bank of America is the one who placed an unauthorized charge on my account. They are committing fraud. Their customer complaint process is a mess – and their compliance department that should be preventing this or at least correcting the mistake when a customer contacts them and informs them of their violation, is broken. For a long time, I was angry that Bank of America is placing illegal charges on customer’s credit cards bills, but thought the bank would at least correct this mistake, but now I’m even worried about whether they will ever refund my money. Please help with this particular case and make sure that Bank of America stops doing this any of its customers.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "card", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"purchase_on_statement": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "fees_or_interest": "Fees or interest", "getting_a_card": "Getting a credit card", "making_payments": "Problem when making payments", "closing_the_account": "Closing your account"}, "label": "purchase_on_statement", "src": "cfpb_issue_card"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3350436", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/ff45db77b1303841eb72", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5838, "company": "BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION", "date_received": "2019-08-22", "product_raw": "Credit card or prepaid card", "issue_raw": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "sub_issue_raw": "Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement", "text_sha256": "ff45db77b1303841eb72a6c7c34d308d89d3a5476588e1faadf588ffd955ef9f", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "We filed a fraud case in 2018, for two checks that were stolen from the post office.

My first and second mortgage were serviced by XXXX XXXX XXXX. I agreed to retain and pay on both mortgages.\nIn XXXX, I opted for a Home Retention Loan Modification through XXXX XXXX XXXX. I requested and put on the application that both mortgages be combined and put on this modification. I was told they would do that.\nIt was 9 months of XXXX to go through this process, as XXXX XXXX XXXX lost paperwork I sent to them numerous times, I had to talk to numerous people and go through the issues with them every time as it never was in the 'notes ' of what I called about previously.. Every time they requested paperwork- I immediately put it together and faxed it- only to have them say they lost or never received it even though I sent it to the number they told me to with a cover sheet of all my loan information. I called them every two to three days, waited on hold for long periods of time, every time to confirm the papers I had faxed in were received and the progress of the modification. Finally in XXXX of XXXX, the modification was approved and signed. I have faithfully paid my mortgage every month since then, had I known I had a second elsewhere with a different company, I would have paid that too. XXXX XXXX XXXX said they were combined. Why should I think otherwise .... Twice my mortgage has changed companies and BOTH times I was notified by the company who held the mortgage and the company to purchased the mortgage that I was to send payments to them- I was sent MONTHLY payment statements and payment coupons.\n\nIn XXXX of XXXX, 4 years after my bankruptcy and 2 years after my modification- a company called XXXX , sent me a letter saying they were servicing my second mortgage- I sent them a letter back stating I didn't know who they were- ( letter A ) that XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX gave me a home modification in XXXX and my second was under that. Never heard another word from them. I never received payment coupons or any correspondence from them- I checked my credit report and nothing was on my report, I also went down to the county courthouse to see who had a lien on my property and nothing came up-so I though it was a scam.\n\nFour more years go by and I hear from a company SLS saying they had my second mortgage- Since I never heard again from XXXX and was sure both mortgages were under my modification- I received nothing saying that they had my loan. I again checked my credit report and at the county courthouse and nothing again came up- I wrote it off as another attempted scam. In XXXX of XXXX, now 10 years after my bankruptcy, I got a letter from SLS saying they were going to foreclose on my property due to non payment. My attorney had me check my credit report and go down the the courthouse - again nothing. My attorneys assistant found something in her search on the internet, however, the lien holder was XXXX XXXX XXXX NOT SLS. My attorney sent a letter on XX/XX/XXXX requesting documentation ( letter B ) - SLS sent me a letter stating they got the letter and would send the requested documentation, I got that paperwork XX/XX/XXXX.\nIn the meantime, I got another letter from SLS that my retention person was XXXX I called her on XX/XX/XXXX and told her this story- she told me I needed to pay what was in arrears by XX/XX/XXXX or short sale my house those were my only two options. She refused to work with me. I requested the documentation that they had this loan as well as the total balance in arrears including late fees, interest etc, as well as the total pay off amount. I still have not received these financial documents and it has been 3 weeks since I requested it. XXXX said when SLS took over the loan, there was a certified letter that was sent to my house in XXXX of XXXX- no signature required- so somehow, that proved I got this letter. I live on a XXXX XXXX and get the neighbors mail all the time- I protested I never got that letter. It wasn't until XXXX, SLS started sending me correspondence via mail, with no instruction as to what I was supposed to do with it. If someone owed you XXXX, wouldn't you make sure they signed verification of receiving the documents? I never got a transfer letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX or SLS on my 2nd mortgage- but I got every single transfer letter from the companies holding my first mortgage. I find that quite odd. When XXXX XXXX XXXX sold my modified 1st mortgage to XXXX I got that letter of notification. Never got a notification about XXXX XXXX XXXX selling my second to anyone.\n\nThe companies that held my first mortgage had no issues getting me payment coupons or notifying me of changes in companies, however, XXXX and SLS couldn't seem to get it together over a 10 year span. I have had the same phone number for 20 years- same address since XXXX, no messages nothing, but now they expect me to pay in full on a loan they still haven't verified they hold or told me HOW much I owe. I need some serious help here as this is just wrong on so many levels. There has to be laws to protect consumers, NO customer should ever be treated this way- My bankruptcy was XXXX in XXXX and they wait 10 years, send NO payment coupons, now tell me I am in delinquent on my payments and they are going to foreclose on me? I can't pay on something I have no idea that I owe.\nAs a customer, I indicated in my Bankruptcy papers I would pay my first and second mortgage. XXXX XXXX XXXX sent me payment coupons every month and I reaffirmed my commitment by paying my first and second mortgage to XXXX XXXX XXXX after the discharge and up to the point where my modification was approved. Yet, after 10 years, I am the one who has to pay the consequences of added stress, sleepless nights and added aggravation because of the irresponsible, reckless incompetence of businesses that did not do their jobs?! I understand there are laws that companies have to follow after bankruptcies- but there is only so much that I can do - I did my part in being responsible- what are the consequences for businesses that don't do their part? Please, please help me! There are pages and pages of complaints about this company- not only in your data base- but several others. I can't make payments on a loan without a statement and monthly payment coupon!\nI have also filed my complaint with my State Attorney general and my 2 senators and I will continue to write every consumer watch agency until SLS does the right thing.

While discussing the pending sale, the owners/managers of the store offered that they had a financing option that would allow us to purchase the mattress set with 90 days same as cash. When asked about what would happen after the 90 days we were told that the bi-monthly payments of {$58.00} would continue until the bed was paid off. What they did not disclose is the fact that after that 90 days, financing the purchase with ACIMA/XXXX XXXX would double the price of the bed from {$730.00} to a total financed amount of {$1500.00} as the financing agreement called for the {$58.00} per month to be paid for 27 months. More calculating is the way this whole process worked. The \" manager '' of the store had me provide the information necessary to determine if we would be \" approved '' for the financing. Once they got the approval, a code was sent to my cell number to verify that I was who I said I was and it would be my way of electronically signing the finance documents.

I have kept this card with me all the time.\nI received a suspicious charge activity notification from the company ( see below ), and it was {$5600.00} charge \" DECLINED '' by a merchant in XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. They asked me whether I am aware of this, Yes or No, So immediately clicked \" NO '' button. I thought it was resolved since \" DECLINED ''. On the next day, a Citi Card Security called me and asked me about confirmation questions. I told him I never authorized this charge and kept the card in my possession all the time. He said not to worry and they would issue a new card replacing my old card associated with this scam activity. A few days later, I received a new card and thought everything was resolved.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, I went into my account trying to make a payment but found this declined charge was on my bill. I immediately reached out to the company ( billing, security, fraud depts. at Citi Card, but no one was able to help me and said that this charge has been in a dispute process. Since it was Sunday, I couldn't get a hold of the proper people so I had to call again and spent the whole on Monday with several people. I asked them why this was charged to my account. They told me different stories from different departments. 1 ) After the declined charge, another charge was submitted and went through their system. 2 ) They did a investigation and concluded that it was a valid charge so they put it on my bill. Their reasoning is someone used the chip to charge.\n\nIt didn't make any sense and I had a strong feeling that someone was trying to hid their mistake. I managed to get email contacts of Citi Executive Response Unit and sent my letter challenging the following.\n\n1. How did a declined charge become a valid charge and billed to my account?\n2. I clearly communicated to them that this was not authorized charge, and thought that everything was settled with a new replacement card issued ( the old card cancelled ) The citi card clearly states the following policy ( copied and pasted ) about their protection to their customers. But they did totally opposite to support the scammer.\n\n\" We've got you covered '' We monitor your account for suspicious activity.

If you think any unauthorized transactions have been made, call us right away. '' I just received their genetic reply saying that they will investigate this matter and return to me within 15 days. I also tried to call them but the only answering service was available.\n\nMy immediate problems are my payment due date is close and I don't want deliquent charges. Therefore, I even asked them at least to give a temporary credit until they complete their investigation. However, no positive response has been received.\n\nIn conclusion, it is a very strange way for a major credit card company to handle a unauthorized charge. I have had some similar problems before, and they have always cooperated with me by issuing a temporary credit and resolve all for me. In this case, they didn't want to give such credit and make a conclusion within a few days without even discussing with me. However, the most suspicious one is what they moved a declined charge to a valid charge against my will. I think this a customer deceptive and criminal activity.\n\nPlease help me in resolving this ASAP.

XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX have an agreement in place which provides them with loans, cars, tracking devices, legal representation, along with anything else a dealership would need to keep its operation running other then its employees but they may even provide training to teach XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX employees how to identify new customers ( victoms ) for XXXX XXXX which fit a specific profile that they are looking for such as minorities, people who are struggling financially and has a credit rating below the national average, customers who are not educated regarding the true cost of financing, and any customer who is unable to secure their own financing. I should have been able to secure financing through a bank which was not subprime based on my XXXX XXXX XXXX and thought that XXXX XXXX XXXX would approach various lenders to find me my best option. At no time was it ever stated to me that they were acting as an agent of XXXX XXXX, that they would be the sole lender whom they would be approaching \" on my behalf '', or that the Underwriting priniciples used to determine the cost of my financing were different then those used by other major lenders which would have given me a loan with more favorable terms that could all be viewed in the contract both oarties agreed to rather then including language which I still have not seen until this day by reference in the contract signed. Before entering into the agreement the required disclosures were never made- cost of financing, actual interest rate applied, all of the fees or the paymeny schedule that I would need to follow. These details were not provided to me until after I electronically signed the installment agreement at which time i was not given an opportunity to review the contract 's full terms and conditions ( which completly favor the lender ) or provided with the required disclosures in violation of New Jersey and Federal Law - Truth in Lending Act. This was not as a result of an honest mistake meaning they forgot but rather the actions of XXXX XXXX XXXX agent for the principle Westlake Financial Services who jointly and systematically prey on people who are vulnerable, ignorant and in need which have limited funds which would include myself. I just as the countless others who have had to deal with the scrupulous practices of Westlake Financial which has the benefit of the experience and financial resources not available to me or there other victoms whose only chance at rescinding the agreement or otherwise altering same I believe is legally justified but just as the countless other victoms I too can not afford the benefit of legal counsell which is the only remedy available in this circumstance. If the failure to disclose the true cost of financing wasnt bad enough, I was tricked into obtaining additional financing when I requested thst my monthly payment date be moved to accommodate my pay day, that now leaves me with s baloon payment whose terms were briefly advised without disclosing any details of my true cost of financing or how this new debt could be paid back to avoid the interest that I can only guess accrues monthly. Ive lesrned from reading the 100 's of complaints that this may be one of the tools used by Westlake Financial to retain ownership of the csr and its title which is all done in an effort to sell each vehicle more then once because they have no intention of ever releasing the cars they finance.

If I chose to request prepayment that basically I would owe the principal balance of the loan plus all interest payments due to the end of the 84 month term! They sent me an amortization schedule by email. In reviewing the amortization schedule for a loan that was $ XXXX It shows that I will pay them $ XXXX in 84 months.\n\nWhen you call it is hard to get an actual person on the phone. When I first took the loan it was very pushy, the filled in the information, I explained I was using funds to consolidate credit debt. The person I was speaking with said it was a business loan. I explained that I didn't have a business necessarily and they said it was ok. To just say I did when asked on the recording because I could use the loan for whatever I like. It was not clearly explained that I would have to pay in full $ XXXX for a $ XXXX loan and no option to pay off earlier without requesting prepayment. The interest rate is high and the monthly payment is high and I am in a position where I would like to reorganize the funds to have a lower payment and lower interest rate.\n\nThey will do that if I pay all the principal and interest and roll everything into one loan which is even more.\n\nI feel trapped and like I was mislead and that the firm used predatory lending practices to secure the loan and preyed upon my desperate need at the time making assurances that were not true.\n\nThey filled out the docs and sent them for docusign. I questioned a few things and was told not to worry about them just sign the documents.\n\nAfter the first loan, I had a phone call 6 mos later, during covid where they checked my credit report and urged me to take a second consolidation loan to \" lock in the interest rate '' because they were going to go way up and they would offer me a lower rate.\n\nIn desperation and much coaxing I agreed.

I applied because I was offered XXXX bonus points once I spent {$2000.00} on the card. I also applied because the Cardmember agreement indicated that I would be able to directly place any charge that was over {$100.00} in a XXXX XXXX XXXX account. I also applied because one of thecardmember benefits was a {$100.00} annual airline add on fee ( such as luggage ) redemption credit offered.\nDuring my first month of card membership I specifically made purchases anticipating American Express would stand behind the promises it asserted in the agreement. American Express proved not to stand behind its promises, which caused me to default, which caused me to lose all of my points, caused a great amount of unexpected and unjustified fees, caused American Express to close my account and report derogatory remarks on my credit report ( credit report has already been disputed ) 1 ) I attempted numerous times to manage my XXXX XXXX XXXX account. To my dismay, each and every time I tried to access the XXXX XXXX XXXX feature on both the mobile and regular sites, a system error appeared. It turns out i was not not eligible. This was deceptive because the agreement did not explain to me that there would be a chance that I could potentially be ineligible for XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX is described as a feature of the card, not some special side program for separately qualified individuals. Several items were planned to be moved into XXXX XXXX XXXX, including several XXXX, XXXX, and Airline Ticket charges. At no time would any system allow me to pay any item over time, even though the user agreement clearly describes this feature.\n2 ) American Express never honored its promise to apply a {$100.00} credit for airline Add-ons. I specifically put this type of charge on this account anticipating a credit that was not received.\n3 ) The bonus points did appear on my statement after spending {$2000.00}, but were unfairly deleted before I could redeem them. Unfortunately, I was not able to pay the entire amount of the first or second bill because I was expecting to be able to pay all of the purchases I made for over {$100.00} Over an extended period of time as promised by American Express. Because I was unable to pay 100 % of my total balance, American Express charged a late fee, defaulted my account, reported derogatory remarks on my credit score, deleted all points before I could redeem anything, and worst of all, cancelled my account.\nVery upset with American Express, I requested a payment plan, and matters got even worse. I spoke to a representative on XX/XX/2018 and inquired about a payment program. She was very nice and explained how it worked. She signed me up and told me that Amex would consider reopening my account and reinstating the deleted points after I completed the payment plan. I had to make the first payment on that plan by midnight the same day or else my plan would be canceled. I agreed and called them back at around XXXX XXXX to make the payment. The representative informed me that the Payment Plan department has already closed. Totally agitated, I asked to make a regular payment anyway in order to preserve my rights in consideration of the promise I made earlier that day to make a payment before midnight. The next day, despite the fact that I made the payment of {$100.00} as specifically instructed by the first representative, American Express decided not to apply it to my payment plan and instead cancel the payment plan, pretend I never had one in the first place, and worst of all, send a bad report to the credit bureau. A couple weeks later I had the money to pay off the entire balance. I called and made a payment on a XX/XX/XXXX for the full balance. Later that week I decided to call Amex to inquire about the huge amount of lost points and possible reinstatement if my account. Once I called, Amex refused to talk to me at all because my account had apparently gone to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and they informed me that Amex had placed my account in collections even though it had a XXXX balance. XXXX then informed me that they could not tell me anything about my account before it was sent over to them, even though Amex refused to talk to me at all. Finally I got in touch with a department in Amex I. Florida that could answer my questions. The representative very rudely informed me that I never had a payment plan and that it was my fault for making the {$100.00} payment as they informed me it would cause the payment plan to cancel. But I apparently never had a payment plan ... Anyway, I am thinking about suing American Express for false advertising, misrepresentations to consumer, theft, I dont know. Can CFPB help?

They are denying my claim for fraudulent charges on my Wells Fargo Business Credit Card. I was alerted to this issue on XX/XX/2019, almost two full weeks after the card was reported stolen, was closed, and I was told not to worry about the charges by the representative.\n\nMy complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has many components which I have outlined below, but first and foremost it is regarding the denial of claim for fraudulent charges made on XX/XX/2019 totaling {$22000.00} USD that now I am being held responsible for.\n\nHelpful people from almost every other department and branch in Wells Fargo outside of the fraud the Wells Fargo Fraud Department, have expressed disgust, surprise, and utter disappointment that I am being held responsible for these charges.\n\nGiven the evidence supplied in the Credit Card Fraud Evidence document attached to this complaint, as well as the simple fact that their own team approved the fraud claims on my Wells Fargo Business Debit card, there is no reason to close and deny my claim. The only acceptable resolution is that all of these charges be permanently removed from my account for the Wells Fargo Business Credit Card in dispute.\n\nI have further complaints in the matter regarding the manipulative, unhelpful, untimely, strong-arm tactics that that fraud team resorted to when the denial was issued. I was immediately made out to be the criminal, despite being the innocent party who has been a long a valued customer. Im asking for a full review and investigation of practices used to deliver or address customers who have had a denial of fraud claims and an apology for the conduct of the fraud team. It is my opinion and the opinion of those I have spoken to within Wells Fargo at various levels that this specifically due to the dollar value of the fraud and that my claim has been denied without a proper investigation of the facts before denying the claim.\n\nAdditionally, in the case of fraud and a police investigation into the charges, time matters. After repeated questions to the representatives who handled my case on XX/XX/XXXX, I was repeatedly told that I didnt need to worry about anything and that the charges were obvious fraud and that Wells Fargo would take care of everything. Nearly two weeks later, after I called to inquire why the fraudulent charges were placed back on my card, they suggested that I would need to potentially provide unlimited and unspecified amounts of evidence to support my case. I was also told that no matter what evidence I supplied, there would be no guarantee of any results that would positively affect the decision in my favor. This is a tactic that I believe was used to stall and make the task seem insurmountable, demeaning, and potentially fruitless in order to scare and intimidate the customer from pursuing further action. However, I immediately supplied the evidence I could gather as a civilian and launched additional police reports beyond the initial XXXX XXXX Sheriff 's report for the theft of my wallet, cards, and phone from my vehicle on XX/XX/2019. There are currently several police departments across various locations where the charges occurred investigation the matter. The fraud team repeated claims theyre unable to supply the transaction times necessary to the ongoing investigation, hampering the multiple active and ongoing police investigations. Yet the fraud supervisor read off several transaction times to me on the phone when we originally spoke. I still have yet to receive a call back from the original supervisor I had called regarding the issue, nearly a week after leaving a message with him.\n\nOn XX/XX/2019 I spoke to two representatives in the resolution department related to my case, who promised that it would be escalated and the team would be actively working to get the denial reversed and the investigation reopened. Yet, on Monday, XX/XX/2019 when I called again, the case had yet to be assigned. When I spoke with the new representative, she took on the case, but made no promises and was sorry someone told me incorrectly that they had the power to do what the previous representative had stated. After supplying all of the evidence, I called back two hours later, only to find the representative had still failed to contact the internal fraud department, and therefore I opted to begin contacting federal authorities and watchdog groups about the case.\n\nRESOLUTION : Again, the only acceptable resolution is that all of the fraudulent charges filed be permanently removed from my account for the Wells Fargo Business Credit Card in dispute and that any negative marks on my business or personal credit or accounts be removed.\n\nA resolution does not mean that I will not continue to pursue action against Wells Fargo for the losses and harm this has caused to my business, my family, and my health. Additionally, it does not mean that I will not also pursue action to stop the abhorrent practices of Wells Fargo related to denial of claims without proper investigation. What has happened to me should never happen to anyone again.\n\nI have attached the list of fraudulent charges, Credit Card Fraud Evidence supplied to Wells Fargo, and additional Well Fargo complaint documentation with notes I have been keeping to build the case against Wells Fargo and support my claim.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "card", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"purchase_on_statement": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "fees_or_interest": "Fees or interest", "getting_a_card": "Getting a credit card", "making_payments": "Problem when making payments", "closing_the_account": "Closing your account"}, "label": "purchase_on_statement", "src": "cfpb_issue_card"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3169871", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/53de86e56d0d91737075", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5457, "company": "WELLS FARGO & COMPANY", "date_received": "2019-03-05", "product_raw": "Credit card or prepaid card", "issue_raw": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "sub_issue_raw": "Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card", "text_sha256": "53de86e56d0d917370753aa7a69d8e2d50351f0e319708417cfe872b482800d0", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Please see comments from my previous complaint which was closed. Case # XXXX Upon reviewing flagships documents that they attached with their response to this complaint, I found multiple errors. They made it look as if they corrected the issues ( not posting payments properly, holding payments making them late, applying my payment to another account, repossessing my car when I had made the payments every month leading up to the repossession but due to their terrible business practices they were not applying my payments which led to the repossession ) There are so many errors in everything that they have done it is hard to keep track. I am going to attach all of the documentation once again including their documents that they responded with. They have in fact failed to correct my account ( they made it appear as if they did however if you look into the documents they provided there are multiple mistakes ), after multiple failed attempts at contacting them I am now seeking further action against this company. I am hoping you will help me. I am going to attach comments from others about this company, as it is not just me that has this problem. This company is fraudulent, has no integrity, and should not be allowed to continue to do this.\n\nThey have robbed me of my money, inflicted emotional distress, lost time and wages, and countless hours researching and digging into what they claim they fixed. I am asking you CFPB to protect not only myself, but many many others who are victims of fraud. I feel as though I have been robbed, mistreated, and so much more. Also, the company continues to drown my credit report with derogatory statements. I want the repossession and every single \" missed '' \" Late '' payment that the company stole from me to be corrected on my credit report.\n\nFor the company : I am giving you one more chance to CORRECT this, and I mean fine tune every single line of my payment history as well as your horrible accounting practices before I seek an attorney. I will not continue to allow you to do this to me.\n\nErrors found in the documents they provided in the last complaint : XXXX/XXXX/XXXX payment not accurately applied ( applied, reversed ) XXXX/XXXX/XXXX Payment not accurately applied ( applied, reversed ) XXXX/XXXX/XXXX Repossession fees and lump sum payment not applied correctly look at how many times they applied and reversed, it does n't add up.\nXXXX/XXXX/XXXX {$200.00} payment made, after this is when they \" fixed '' everything and responded to the complaint ( and lied ) if I made a {$200.00} payment, and they supposedly applied a {$500.00} payment where is the extra money? Technically they only applied {$300.00} out of what they claimed to have fixed. On the website as of now, it is n't correct and still shows a payment due. The problem is, the \" late '' payment was from XXXX when I have a statement from the company showing I had a zero balance and next payment due was XXXX XXXX, XXXX.

I went on XXXX in XXXX to XXXX with the United States XXXX. While I was gone XXXX XXXX sold my contract to Innovate Auto. When I got back from my XXXX the counselor from the Veterans Administration in Virginia told us while we were on XXXX that our interest rate on our credit cards and our cars should be at 6 % and to let our finance companies know so they could adjust accordingly.\n\nI got back in XXXX XXXX and I got in touch with XXXX XXXX who informed me of the sell to Innovate Auto so I contacted Innovate Auto. Innovate Auto told me I need to send them my orders from my XXXX and they gave me the email address to send them to. I sent the orders over to them. I called soon after and spoke with someone who said the orders were never received and asked me to resend them over, which I did. I called again and spoke with someone different who said they see the orders were received and they had been sent over to the team that would handle them and get me taken care of.\n\nI never heard anything from them so I called again, only to speak to someone who said they never received anything from me and I would need to send it over to them. I asked for a supervisor whom I was told is not available just to send over the paperwork and they gave me the email address again. I asked them if they could please look through all the notes on my account and see if they see anything about my orders. They finally looked and then said well we received some information, but it is not what we needed from what I am reading, please resend the information. I have sent over my orders several times and never received a follow up email from anyone to say there were received and every time I call they say we have nothing please resend them.\n\nI dont understand what the run around is about because like clockwork they call me every month for a payment and as soon as I ask about my 6 % interest that I should have gotten from XXXX they say they know nothing about that and have received no paperwork. It is very inconsistent and very unprofessional on their part and I dont understand what kind of business they are running where they can be comfortable giving faithful customers who help them stay in business the run around.\n\nFinally one day I was able to speak with a supervisor named XXXX who took the time to look through my account after going back and forth and him saying they have nothing and I need to send paperwork confirming what I am talking about. He saw the orders and said he is printing them and getting them over to the right department so that I can get taken care of. I really appreciated speaking to someone who took the time to look at everything and understand where I was coming from, and actually see that I had sent in that information over a year ago.\n\nMonths went by and I did not speak to XXXX again so I called asking for him only to get that he is not in and I was transferred to his voicemail and left several messages that were never returned. Finally, one day I was transferred over and he accidentally answered and stuttered at his surprise in speaking to me. I said XXXX I am following up with you on my 6 % that I should be receiving from my orders to XXXX. He said let me look and see what they said. He said they said you had to be on XXXX while we had the car and you were on XXXX in XXXX and we cant go back that far. They were actually looking at the instructions and policies and procedures. I was very confused because the information on my orders are very clear. I went through the orders with XXXX and showed him where the actual dates are. I then questioned the specialist they have in charge of military information because if they do not know how to read the orders or understand them, what help are they to their faithful customers. He agreed they need to get a better process in order to help faithful customers better.\n\nAt that time XXXX said he was going to highlight the information to show the specialist my actual XXXX dates so they can go ahead and take care of my 6 %. XXXX apologized for the confusion and thanked me for my service and promised to get it all taken care of and said he would give me a call within a week. I have not heard from XXXX since and this was way back in XXXX or XXXX. I call often trying to speak to him and everyone says they are taking a message and giving it to him. I have even left several messages on his voicemail that they have transferred me to. I asked is he still employed there and they say yes, but I guess he just does not want to speak to me.\n\nThey call me monthly several times to ask me about my payment and I always ask them is XXXX available and they say no so I ask have they fixed my account yet for my 6 % according to my orders from my XXXX and everyone I have spoken to says we dont have any record of any orders you have to send them to ; and they give me the email address to send my information to.\n\nI was making my payment slowly because I know they owe me the 6 % and I was hoping and praying they would do the honorable thing, their job, and look over my account and see that I was on XXXX from XXXX XXXX until XXXX XXXX.\n\nI would like a resolve to this situation. I believe I have done everything I could have done to try to get things handled in a professional way, but I have not had any cooperation, from this company. I do not understand how such a company can be comfortable presenting themselves in this manner and taking peoples hard earned money without first caring about them as a faithful customer. I dont believe this company, Innovate Auto realizes, it is the faithful customer that allows each and everyone of them to come into a job each day and the faithful customer can bring all of that to a hault.\n\nI was holding off paying my car off because I did not want them to say well her care is paid off now we should not have to give her anything and being the kind of company they are which in my eyes is sneaky, uncaring, and trifling, this is the only thing I expect from them because this is all theyve shown me. However, waiting to make payments and being late with my payments is only making my credit get worse.\n\nThis is a serious cry for help to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to help me with this company. I have exhausted all efforts to get these things handled, and because I am just a little faithful customer with a car payment they treat me like trash with no appreciation that I am a part of the reason why Innovate Auto still exists.\n\nI have attached emails that I have sent to the company with my orders that were sent to them.\n\nI sincerely thank you and appreciate your help in this serious matter.

The next screen popped up asked for confirmation of my debit card and it already displayed the last 4 of the card, the next screen asked for confirmation of my email. After I answered the questions it then took me directly to my account - I ensured my direct deposit was there - it was so I logged out.

She asked if I would object to contacting XXXX to see if they could provide some assistance so she called XXXX and we did a 3 way call but XXXX offered no help ; she then stated she knew how to contact XXXX to see if they could help and of course I agreed so we conducted a 3 way call with XXXX - and we spoke with XXXX who opened a claim # XXXX - with all 3 of us on the phone he then logged into my computer and pulled up the XXXX XXXX XXXX and confirmed with XXXX that there is no report that can be produced - he did some searches on my computer and he told XXXX he totally believed me that the scan was run as the computer was totally clean at this point. XXXX then said she was going to resubmit the claim for reconsideration - we were on the phone for almost 4 hours!\nOn XX/XX/XXXX I called BofA and spoke with XXXX who advised that XXXX was off but that she did put the file in for reconsideration. I asked for a fax number so I could fax over the police report I had filed and I faxed over the police report to XXXX. On XX/XX/19 I called and spoke with XXXX and she stated it was still be reviewed and to give it until XX/XX/2019. On XX/XX/19 I called and spoke with XXXX and then with XXXX - XXXX advised that the claim was denied at which time I broke down again crying and re-reviewed EVERYTHING - he put it back in for reconsideration.\n\nOn XX/XX/19 I actually went into the BofA in XXXX and spoke with the Branch Manager, XXXX. I reviewed AGAIN everything. He indicated that he has been successful in other attempts when fraud has been denied and that he hoped by the end of the week I would have my funds returned. On XX/XX/2019 and XX/XX/2019 I left XXXX messages and as of today I have not heard from anyone. I have tried to contact him because I found something under Action Center that I wanted to submit but as of today 's date no one has gotten back to me and I still do NOT have my {$2400.00} back!\n\nI just do not know what else to do - BofA contacted me due to \" fraud '' on my account - I have done everything they have asked - they refuse to give me back my money that was stolen from my account. I just do not know what else to do - I simply can not just let {$2400.00} be stolen from me from a federally insured institution where I have banked for 30 years!

I have been a Bank of America client for 20 years, and have come to trust the bank 's marketing of consumer fraud protection. I was told by my bank that XXXX was a safe tool for money transfers. I was scammed by a fraudster who took advantage of this trust, and who knew that both Bank of America and XXXX ( a product of XXXX XXXX XXXX ) would have opportunities to prevent or reverse the scam but would repeatedly fail to do so. Specifically : 1. Bank of America as a whole bank brand advertises fraud protection constantly. As a customer, my expectation has been repeatedly set that Bank of America products come with fraud protection, and yet they have built a service ( XXXX ) into their online banking and mobile banking apps that comes with XXXX protection for consumers.\n2. Bank of America and XXXX XXXX XXXX make insufficient effort to warn account holders of this lack of protection. It wasn't clear to me until I was scammed that I would have absolutely no recourse, yet Bank of America customer service all but laughed in my face when I asked if they could help recover my funds.\n3. Bank of America and XXXX XXXX XXXX apparently make no use of their data to detect what should have been clearly fraudulent activity on my account : First, multiple declined transfer requests should have prompted an account lockdown. Second, a third-party link should not have the ability to directly confirm a transfer. Third, it should have been obvious from my account history and/or from the activity of the fraudster 's account that this was a suspicious transfer, yet no special authorization was required to drain my account of nearly its entire balance.\n\nMy expectation as a customer of the bank is that I will be protected from fraudulent activity. The bank advertises and promotes fraud protection constantly, but now that I have been a victim of fraud, consumer protections are nowhere to be found from either Bank of America or XXXX XXXX XXXX. This deception and failure of responsibility from my bank feels in many ways like an even worse violation than the scam itself.\n\nOn Monday evening XX/XX/XXXX I received a call which showed as \" BOA '' on my caller ID. I then received a text and then another phone call from the same party. Believing I was being contacted by my bank, I answered the call. The caller addressed himself as \" XXXX XXXX, ID number XXXX. '' He informed me that someone had made a fraudulent {$3500.00} XXXX transfer from my Bank of America personal checking account. He kept saying he was checking a few things out because there was a high volume of fraudulent attempts - I was seeing these transfer requests and declining them on my end, which corroborated his story. He then said, \" let 's try one more thing, '' texted me a link, and instructed me on the phone call to click the link to complete a \" test '' on my account. I clicked the link, which was in fact a link to confirm the transfer request. This was the first violation, where Bank of America and XXXX XXXX XXXX inexplicably have allowed a link sent by a third party to point customers to confirm a transfer request. It seems obvious to me that I should have to go directly to my online banking account or app to do something like this.\n\nI received a text message saying thank you for your confirmation on this transfer. I immediately panicked ; the fraudster on the other end of the phone actually giggled. He told me that because it was after bank hours I would have to wait until morning for the \" test '' to be reversed. When I awoke, I called Bank of America directly and told a customer service agent what had happened. I was clearly in a state of panic but the agent lacked any empathy, saying only that I had been scammed and that I need to make a claim with the fraud department. The fraud department was so busy that they had to call me back - and when they did, I was already at a local Bank of America branch seeking any assistance they might be able to provide. All Bank of America 's representatives could tell me is that they would \" not likely '' be able to protect me or reclaim my lost funds.\n\nHaving been abandoned by Bank of America, and knowing the fraudulent transfer was completed via XXXX, I decided to contact XXXX directly. Of course Bank of America and the XXXX user interface intentionally obfuscate the fact that XXXX is run by a company called \" XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, '' something I would not learn until much later. All I could do to find XXXX contact information was to search XXXX. I called the phone number that I found, and I was pleased to reach a live person, who identified himself as \" XXXX. '' I explained the situation and he told me not to worry - he had the power to help, and that there would be a few steps to begin the process. First, he had me install XXXX ( a screen sharing app ) so that he could record our interaction for his management to review. With my screen being shared to XXXX, he had me sign into my checking account and go to XXXX to do a test transfer for {$220.00}. At this point I have already exceeded my max in XXXX transfers from the prior scam. Seeing this, XXXX sent me a text and said he will be in touch once he is able to review my case with his superiors. He collected my email address, had me log out of Bank of America and all social media accounts while he watched my screen, and told me that my device had been hacked and that I was being monitored from multiple locations before we ended the call.\n\nFeeling suspicious and beginning to sense that something was wrong, I used a family member 's phone to try contacting XXXX again - this time, finding a different phone number, I reached an automated system. It became apparent that this was the actual contact for the XXXX operators, and that the human I had reached earlier was in fact another fraudster. I was sick to my stomach, realizing that Bank of America had yet again failed to give me the information I needed to know who operates XXXX or how to get in contact with them. When I learned about XXXX XXXX XXXX I was even more disappointed- why was I able to reach a FRAUDULENT customer service agent so easily, yet calling the real XXXX provider only got me to a brick wall of an automated system?\n\nI have closed my accounts, changed all of my passwords, enrolled in personal credit monitoring services at my own expense, and updated billing information at all the places I had my Bank of America card on file. The process has only begun for me to earn back the money I've lost. What may take even longer is the process for me to heal the psychological wound that this has left behind. I hope that this letter helps to inform other consumers, the regulatory authorities, banks offering XXXX to their customers, and XXXX XXXX XXXX of the very real fraud risk being willfully left open right now. I only feel fortunate that I am young enough to recover financially ; I can't imagine how this wide-open fraud opportunity is impacting the elderly and other vulnerable individuals who have been deceived into trusting their bank.\n\nBest, XXXX XXXX", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "money_transfer", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"fraud_or_scam": "Fraud or scam", "money_not_available": "Money was not available when promised", "mobile_wallet_account": "Managing, opening, or closing your mobile wallet account", "unauthorized_transactions": "Unauthorized transactions or other transaction problem"}, "label": "fraud_or_scam", "src": "cfpb_issue_money_transfer"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/5810397", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/e26e7439a57a36e3a1c7", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 7151, "company": "BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION", "date_received": "2022-07-26", "product_raw": "Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service", "issue_raw": "Fraud or scam", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "e26e7439a57a36e3a1c7eeee5386feaf0c75a0dae2cd4af32fd6563846ea2971", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I am writing regarding my account with GM Financial. This account was opened XX/XX/XXXX. The account was for the lease of a XXXX XXXX XXXX which was returned in XX/XX/XXXX. Currently I have attempted to resolve the matter, but GM Financial maintains they want paid for a disposition fee. I maintain that money paid to them for XXXX taxes was misallocated, therefore I should have been on target to receive a refund for taxes paid ( prorated from XX/XX/XXXX, and the full months of XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX ). Also, I maintain that I, in good faith, tried to get information for any and all costs associated with ending this lease in order to limit my liability to only excess wear and tear and excess mileage. My intention with ending the lease was that the dealership to which I would buy/lease my next car would pay all final payments in full to GM Financial with the exception of the excess wear/tear/mileage if applicable.\n\nPrior to searching for a car for lease/purchase I called GM Financial to get final numbers : buyout price or lease pay off, and any final costs that would be associated in order to close the account. I called ( approximate date XXXX XXXX ) and I used the online chat option to get this information. I also checked in multiple places in my account ( on their website, app, and paper statements ) and was unable to get this information from any of those options. I was told a buyout number and lease payoff during the call and the chat session. I was told that sometimes XXXX offers to forgive the remainder of the lease if I bought another XXXX product, and I received letters in XX/XX/XXXX stating as much ( early lease turn in ). I asked specifically and in multiple conversations via telephone and online chat if there were any other costs that might be associated/incurred with returning the vehicle. I was told no. I asked again if there would be anything else that would need paid other than a buyout or completion of the lease payments. Again, I was told no. I asked if there was anywhere on their website in my account information or statements to confirm what they were telling me, and I was told no, but was also told the information they were giving me was accurate.\n\nIn XXXX of XXXX I started the process of looking for financing and searching for my next XXXX car. I spoke to salespersons at three dealerships ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX ) about an early lease turn in. XXXX XXXX is closest to me, and I test drove a car that I was interested in. When it came time to discuss purchasing the car I was told by the sales manager, XXXX, that I should take a smaller car. I told him and the salesperson, XXXX, that I was looking to purchase a larger car to accommodate my family ; that I needed something larger to accommodate a car seat and enough leg room for myself because I have a XXXX that affects my XXXX and XXXX, and with the current car, I was in pain from not having enough room due to the car seat. XXXX was abrupt in telling me he could not sell me the car I wished to purchase, that I should accept a smaller car, that I would have to roll over the remainder of my lease, and if I was unwilling to accept that there was nothing else he could do for me. He ended the discussion by walking away. In weeks following I was emailed by XXXX XXXX even after unsubscribing and called multiple times a week and sometimes multiple times a day even after requesting the calls cease. It took more than a month for the calls to stop, and representatives from XXXX XXXX only stopped when I threatened to file a complaint of harassment with the Attorney General and Federal Trade Commission. After that the calls were less frequent, but they did not cease entirely even with me blocking the numbers that were previously used. It was because of the interactions at XXXX XXXX that I decided to purchase from a different car company.\n\nIt was around that time that I paid the year XXXX taxes on the XXXX XXXX because I believed I would have the car until XX/XX/XXXX when the lease ended. Taxes are paid directly to the Leaser, as requested in a bill from GM Financial, by the Leasee which are then paid to the county tax assessor where the car is located. I sent the check through my banks online payment system including a memo for the check to be directed to the payment of taxes. The payment was made on XX/XX/XXXX for the amount of {$260.00}, the amount listed for the cost of XXXX taxes. I have obtained proof from my bank that this payment was made. On XX/XX/XXXX I purchased a car and returned my XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, VA.\n\nI received the final bill sometime around the end of XX/XX/XXXX or the beginning of XX/XX/XXXX. When I called to find out why I was receiving a bill, and especially one this high, I was told it was a disposition fee. I asked what a disposition fee was and was told that it was for disposal of the car. I knew the car had been sold from XXXX XXXX in XXXX because I watched for the listing and sale of the car. I asked why this had not been disclosed as part of the final pay out. They said that a final pay out came when they knew if there had been excess miles or excess wear and tear. I told them I had expected to pay that if that were found to be necessary, but that I had specifically asked if there were any hidden costs, anything that would need paid besides the last of the lease payments, and anything else other than a final bill for excess wear and tear or miles. I also told them I knew that excess wear and tear or excess mileage charges were possible, but with how I took care of the car it would not be probable. I told them everyone I had spoke with had told me no, that there were no hidden charges. The wear/tear and miles would be the only things I needed to worry about if I had a dealership willing to either buy the car or pay off the lease even if I went with a different company. I knew that I was under mileage for the car and that wear and tear would not be a problem because I always kept it clean.\n\nI asked for the balance for pay off of the lease and for buyout of lease. I asked specifically for any and all costs, hidden or known, and was given an amount that was not accurate. The dealership from which I purchased my new car paid off my lease. The sales manager also called and asked for a full pay out. I was standing there as they were on speaker with the representative from GM Financial. The representative gave a number that was not a complete pay off. The disposition fee was not included in the final amount. The taxes I paid in XX/XX/XXXX had been applied towards the car payment and not the tax payment which gave the dealership willing to pay off my lease an inaccurate amount to pay to GM Financial. Had GM Financial applied the money correctly for the taxes and included the disposition fee they would have received full payment from XXXX for the balance of the lease, and I would have received a refund for XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX taxes as well as a refund for all of XXXX taxes paid.\n\nTaxes paid for XXXX were returned to GM Financial for the months of XXXX and XXXX. I have email from XXXX XXXX XXXX stating a refund was given back to GM Financial for the car being returned. That refund was not applied to my account. The tax assessor also explained in the email that in order for the refund to begin on XX/XX/XXXX they would need to be contacted from GM Financial or have something to reflect that I no longer had the car on or after XX/XX/XXXX. Only then would a refund be given for XXXX tax payment, that it would be prorated, and that the refund would be sent to GM Financial.\n\nI asked GM Financial in XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX to not report this to credit agencies until the dispute had been resolved, and I was told that it would still be reported to credit agencies as late/nonpayment. I said that in the few times I have had a dispute about a bill that the company had always agreed to hold reporting to any credit agency as long as the dispute was in process and resolution had yet to be found. The representative refused to hold reporting to the credit agencies. At this point by credit score dropped 80 points within two days. In looking at my credit report, GM Financial not only reported negatively to the credit agency once, but they reported negatively three times in two days ( XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX, XXXX ) for 30 days late. During the time I had the car in my possession I had not one late payment. Now in disputing these charges I receive 3 late/negative reports in a matter of two days.\n\nI requested a statement from GM Financial in XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX, and I received it in XX/XX/XXXX. The statement reflected what I had told their representatives in previous discussions : I made a payment of {$260.00} to be applied to XXXX XXXX County Tax Assessment. It shows the payment was directed towards the monthly car note, not applied to the property tax as I had designated in writing on the check sent from my bank. This check was received XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nAs of XX/XX/XXXX I have notified GM Financial that I would be in contact with an outside official because I am disputing the final balance. I have spoken to multiple representatives from GM Financial both before and after returning the car on XX/XX/XXXX. I have asked for transcripts of these conversations from the online chat, chat in the app, and the monitoring of the phone conversations. I have not yet been provided with that information, and I was told on XX/XX/XXXX that I could not be provided that information.\n\nPlease note, if this is not the correct agency to seek relief, please let me know who to direct my request in order to resolve this issue.

A customer calls XXXX XXXX XXXX for a service request. The consumer is then offered a special promotion that they are running. In this case Air Duct and Dryer Duct Cleaning for {$180.00}.\n2. On the day of the service, a Searss sales representative shows up unannounced prior to the scheduled service time posing as the supervising technician. He then begins to evaluate the problem and writes up a quote for additional work that he believes you might need.\n3. He then tells the consumer that they will get a 50 % discount on the work quoted ; plus no interest for 18 months, if they do the work today. Right now.\n4. He then turns the quote into an inflated service contract with written-in language that appears to be what he verbally promised. But that the customer needs to do it now since the actual technicians are on their way and he needs to call it in before they get there. They promises that the back office will work out the details later to ensure that you get 50 % off the invoice plus no interest for 18 months.\n5. He then gets your credit card information and quickly leaves. ( Another variation of this scheme is that they take a credit application and approve the consumer on the spot for credit terms that are never fully disclosed at the time. ) 6. A short time later, after they pre-charge your credit card for the full invoice, the actual technicians show up to do to work against the misrepresented contract.\n7. The SOP and MO that these companies operate under is to devise a scheme to coerce consumers into misrepresented contracts and credit agreements and then start the work immediately to circumvent consumer protection laws that allow a customer to cancel a contract within three ( 3 ) days. By starting the work on-the-spot, they are taking advantage of a loop-hole in the law to victimize consumers by locking them into a deceptive ( service performed ) contract before the consumer can detect that they have been scammed. This is especially harmful elderly citizens and unsavvy consumers.\n8. The technicians go through the motion of providing the service. Once they believe that the consumer is on the nook, then XXXX XXXX XXXX precedes to charge for the work that was not completed or completely poorly ( as if it was services performed ) hoping that the consumer can not dispute it otherwise. XXXX XXXX XXXX then collaborates with Sears Citibank to modify the terms of the contract to a 20 % -26 % deferred interest arrangement which was never disclosed on the original contract. The consumer is misled and deceived into believing the terms are no interest only to find out later that they have been a victim of a predatory credit card scam. The scheme benefits the credit card companies that participate since it brings them larger credit card transactions with the opportunity to charge outrageous interest charges to unsuspecting victims using other loop-holes in the credit card agreement.\n9. Multiple calls to XXXX XXXX XXXX and Sears CitiBank Card Services about the issue results in both entities insisting that the work was done and that the service contract can not be cancelled or disputed. Hence attempting to defraud me out $ 1300+ and using the credit card transaction and credit reporting apparatus to extort money from me and other vulnerable consumers including the elderly.\nBackground information about the specific incident that sparked the filing of this compliant : 1. The incident occurred on XX/XX/XXXX in XXXX County, MD.\n2. In my case, I knew about the deferred interest practice. So I had the salesman add a statement on the agreement that is also including no deferred interest. He was very unwilling to do that. However, he did since he needed to leave.\n3. Once the salesman was gone, we detected additional misleading and deceptive issues with the contract and immediately called XXXX XXXX XXXX to cancel the contract which they agreed to do and re-issue a service order for the original work for {$180.00}. This all got finalized just after the technicians arrived but before any work was ever started ; and within hours of when the salesman left.\n4. The customer service representative on the phone said that they would cancel the additional work contract and reissue a service order to the technicians already onsite for the original service order of {$180.00} instead of the $ 1300+.\n5. The technicians did the service ( that would have cost {$180.00} ) poorly and left without providing a service completion sheet that describes the work that they actually did.\n6. The technician phoned in the service order as being completed including the additional work that was never done. By not providing a completion work order acknowledged by the consumer, they can then make the false claim that they did the additional work.\n7. The next day, on XX/XX/XXXX I sent XXXX XXXX XXXX a certified letter at their VA office cancelling the contract and reiterating the fact that the additional work was never performed and demanded a refund of the {$1300.00} charge on the Sears CitiBank Credit Card.\n8. XXXX XXXX XXXX received the letter and called me to get some information about the problem. We reiterated that the additional work was never done and that the original work was done incompletely. The dry air duct remained clogged after XX/XX/XXXX\n9. They agreed to send me the forms to initiate the refund. They also wanted to send a technician out to reassess the dry vent situation which we agreed to. We also reiterated that no additional work was under consideration and that the cancelation of the contract stands. We agreed to allow a technician to come back out to assess the dryer vent only and they agreed to make the refund for the additional charges.\n10. The other technician came out on XX/XX/XXXX to revisit the dryer vent issue. He determined that he could not unclog it due to some unknown reason. He then left. A few minutes later he returned stating that his office wanted him to inspect the areas where the additional work ( AC Coil and AC Blowers ) was located. We refused. We considered this a deceptive attempt by XXXX XXXX XXXX to make a false assertion that they did work that was clearly not done. Or to make it appear that this technician came to do the additional work.\n11. When we refused the technician access to the area and reiterated there was no agreement to anything other than the dryer vent, they then refused to honor the refund promised ; citing that they stand by their original technicians claim that he did the additional work.\n12. A dispute was filed with Sears CitiBank Card Services. The results to-date of this complaint filing is that the charge would stand until XXXX XXXX XXXX decides to refund it ; which implies that Sears CitiBank Card Services is acting as a co-conspirator to this scam by aiding and abetting XXXX XXXX XXXX deceptive practices that victimize consumers.\n13. We have phone logs to document the phone calls made to XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding the cancelation of the contract and the dispute about the {$1300.00} credit card charge.\n14. We also have security surveillance footage from multiple cameras that clearly show what occurred on XX/XX/XXXX It clearly shows that they did not do the additional work that they are attempting the charge for. This footage can be made available to assist in your investigation. XXXX XXXX XXXX has been informed that this evidence exists that definitively shows the work was never done.\nThere are potentially 100s if not 1000s of other consumers that may have been victimized by these deceptive practices. We are asking CFPB to assist us in seek restitution for the financial lost, harm and mental stress this incident has cause us. We are asking CFPB to assist in seeking monetary restitution for other victims of this scam and take appropriate action to protection consumers from these type predatory companies and their deceptive practices.\nWe are also asking the Attorney Generals/District Attorneys in both Maryland and Virginia to consider legal action to protection their citizen from these two entities and other entities that perpetrate these type deceptive practices in their respective States.\nCC : Maryland Attorney General Office of Consumer Protection Virginia Attorney General Office BBB Serving Metro Washington DC and Eastern PA BBB of Greater Maryland", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "card", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"purchase_on_statement": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "fees_or_interest": "Fees or interest", "getting_a_card": "Getting a credit card", "making_payments": "Problem when making payments", "closing_the_account": "Closing your account"}, "label": "purchase_on_statement", "src": "cfpb_issue_card"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/2713009", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/896408783abac727da85", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 9162, "company": "CITIBANK, N.A.", "date_received": "2017-10-26", "product_raw": "Credit card or prepaid card", "issue_raw": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "sub_issue_raw": "Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement", "text_sha256": "896408783abac727da85d55ca1f63375659e6fc8a06bd151b7ba0312158e794a", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I do n't know how many times I have to explain this.

XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX.\nXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NH XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX I am appealing to you for help regarding repayment of a student loan and the impossible situation that I find myself in.\n\nMy background ; I have been an XXXX my entire life with a majority of time spent in XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX. At the age of XXXX, I combined my XXXX expertise with my spiritual beliefs and entered XXXX, earning a XXXX Degree in XXXX and being XXXX as a XXXX XXXX XXXX. During my XXXX career I found that basic XXXX XXXX in XXXX was lacking. I watched people not only suffer physically, but emotionally as well. I knew that this decision was to profoundly change the rest of my life but the XXXX XXXX XXXX has been life long.\n\nI now work with the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX as a XXXX XXXX helping people and their families navigate the end of life transition. My personal experiences as well as my broad course of studied has prepared me to provide XXXX support ; XXXX care across multiple faith traditions from indigenous cultures to XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. Because of my background I have been able to support the diverse cultures now living in the greater XXXX area : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, to name just a few.\n\nOf course all of this came at a personal and financial cost. I have student loan debt that is serviced through the XXXX program. Because the XXXX is a 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) non-profit I qualify for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program ( PSLF ). Even though the payments are income driven, the amount is based on discretionary income. The federal poverty guideline for location and family size is multiplied by 1.5, This figure is subtracted from your adjusted gross income. The resulting number is then multiplied by 10 % ; then divided by twelve. My initial payment was determined to be {$290.00} based on my 2015 income. After a one time salary increase ( 24 % ) the payments were increased to {$390.00} ( 36 % ) which I can not afford. In the same time interval my mortgage payments increased due to an increase in property tax, my health insurance premiums increased 3 %, utilities increased and I had to replace a vehicle and take on a car payment.\n\nI attempted to renegotiate the payment amount several times. I can manage the {$290.00} a month and emphasized this to multiple loan representatives. Each time the result was the same. The agency would not recalculate my payment. I was told that my only option was forbearance. During a forbearance I could pay the interest on the loan-however, at the end I would in the same situation. If the interest is capitalized the resulting payment is even higher. The loan servicer-XXXX told me even if I kept sending payments in good faith-unless they were the specified amount the money would not be put toward the loan and they would put me into default. If I do not continue monthly payments I will be ineligible for the program. My employer also tried to intervene on my behalf ; however they are limited in what they can do. At this point I know that I will be capped to a 2 % salary increase each year due to the nature of non-profit work. I am now in a truly impossible situation.\n\nWhat I am deeply troubled by is the refusal of the servicer to take any kind of payment. Despite the fact that I could continue to pay my current amount I was informed that it would not be processed and that I would end up in default of the loan. I truly believe this is extortion. I have paid several debts-all XXXX related-by making good faith payments monthly that were agreed upon by both parties. I ask you to help me in this situation.

Firstmark Services initiated repayment status of this loan in XX/XX/XXXX however I did not receive notice of this until I started getting phone calls on XX/XX/XXXX at which point the payments were already 90 days overdue for a balance of {$300.00}. I discussed with Firstmark that I had not received any of their paper mail correspondence and had not received any phone calls or electronic communication until this point, so I had no way of knowing this change in status. I also explained that since I completed my degree in XX/XX/XXXX I should still be in a 6 month grace period until XX/XX/XXXX. I was told varying conflicting information from Firstmark representatives such as I had gaps in my enrollment ( no rep could consistently tell me when the gap was ) and that the 6 month grace period had been used prior to XX/XX/XXXX. They instructed me to contact the XXXX XXXX XXXX to verify my enrollment history and in the meantime I was placed in Return to Grace status on XX/XX/XXXX and told I did not need to worry about the payments or any adverse credit actions. I also provided Firstmark with documentation of my other private loans that were in the 6 month deferment status post degree completion to confirm that other lenders had not reported usage of this deferment status prior to XX/XX/XXXX. After the XXXX XXXX XXXX confirmed there were no gaps in my enrollment Firstmark changed their reasoning of why I was ineligible for 6 month deferment stating it was related to the terms of my loan and unrelated to my enrollment status.\n\nHad I had knowledge of and then failed to pay the balance then I would agree with their action of reporting to the credit bureau however, that is not the case. I am disputing their negative reporting on the basis that it is impossible for a borrower to pay a bill they never received and even more impossible for them to pay it on time. In addition to not receiving the bill I was never notified of the change in loan status and was under the impression I was still in my 6 month grace period that would have initiated upon graduation in XX/XX/XXXX. Firstmark is acting unfairly by reporting late payments despite their knowledge that I did not receive their correspondence and consistently has tried to create loop holes to justify their actions. As a lender they have the responsibility to provide me with accurate and timely information about my loan however every time I call I am told conflicting information regarding this 6 month grace period. When I request documentation of the information they are referencing they can't provide it. My current address has been listed on my Credit Report since XXXX as well as the mailing address I gave them for billing both which Firstmark would have had access to when they ran my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX. Instead they billed an old address from XXXX and made no other efforts to contact me until XXXX. I also have call logs to confirm Firstmark did not call prior to when the bill was already 120 days past due. This company didn't even give me the courtesy of calling me during the time frame when I could have made the payments and prevented negative credit history marks. Even if XXXX XXXX did not pass along that updated information at the time the loan was transferred in XX/XX/XXXX Firstmark made no efforts to verify the address they were billing or make sure it was up to date based on the records and Credit report they had available. For all I know those letters could have ended up at the North pole with Santa. To have my credit affected by a company who knows I did not receive their bills is unfair and frankly unethical. This loan company if nothing else has lost their ability to treat humans as humans and refuses to admit when they make mistakes even at the expense of their customers. If knowingly sending bills to the wrong address and then consistently changing your story about it, is the \" best '' a company can do then they shouldn't be a company.", "questions": {"issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"incorrect_information": "Incorrect information on your report", "improper_use": "Improper use of your report", "investigation": "Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem", "unable_to_get_report": "Unable to get your credit report or credit score", "fraud_alerts_or_freezes": "Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes"}, "label": "incorrect_information", "src": "cfpb_issue_credit_reporting"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/4883422", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/185fbc0545617135a78a", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4103, "company": "Nelnet, Inc.", "date_received": "2021-11-05", "product_raw": "Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports", "issue_raw": "Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem", "sub_issue_raw": "Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone", "text_sha256": "185fbc0545617135a78af88cc0c99759f0be9234b7c9f33684b09f537efef2f8", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "On Sunday XX/XX/XXXX I began a backpacking trip in XXXX California about an hour out of XXXX XXXX where I live.

I cosigned those loans. Citizens Bank had the loans serviced by XXXX . XX/XX/XXXX , C itizens Bank stripped my accounts ( about {$24000.00} ) without contacting me in any way prior to doing so. I believe that this occurred due to an error on the part of the bank, but the bank will not discuss this with me nor send me any statements of the loan accou nt. XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX XXXX graduated, but was unable to find work in her field, and although she was working, was not able to meet the demands of her student loans including the loans with Citizens. She had no difficulty working with the other loan originators, only XXXX and Citizens.\nShe communicated with XXXX regularly but subsequently we renegotiated the loans with the Access Center at Citizens Bank. That arrangement was $ XXXX /month for each loan totaling {$50.00} monthly without interest. We could not receive written documentation of this.\nXXXX Citizens refused to send statements or give me access to the account because I was not the primary borrower, but I was assured that Citizens would be servicing the loan going forward. I wrote to the President of Citizens bank informing him that the service XXXX provided was less than stellar since I had not received telephone calls that the loan was behind or in default and I would have made payments for my daughter ; and that I was concerned that I would have no access to the account information going forward. I did not receive a reply ; thus, I relied on my daughter to notify me if she was having difficulty, but expected Citizens to notify me of any issues as they had stated during our conversation.\nI subsequently learned that XXXX also had no access to statements or on-line activity and could only make payments by telephone or check. She chose to make monthly payments initially by check but primarily by telephone, but the process was tedious. It generally took her hour each time to provide all the required information for the loan and make her payment from her XXXX XXXX XXXX account since they did not keep her information from payment to payment.\nXXXX to XXXX She made all her payments in full and in a timely fashion. She did this until they offered her an opportunity for automatic deductions from her account duri ng the Fall of XXXX . At that time, she filled in the appropriate paperwork and was happy t o be able to do so. The payments were to begin on XX/XX/XXXX . At the end of that month, o n XX/XX/XXXX Citizens called her as they had not received a payment and told her that sometimes it takes a while to go through. She therefore paid for XXXX and XXXX as per her usual routine ( she was a month ahead in payments ). At that time her balance on one loan was approximately {$7000.00} and the other was {$9000.00}, at least, per what she was told over the phone from the representative. Remember we had no access to see any accountings or statements. On XX/XX/XXXX , XXXX deductions were made from her XXXX XXXX XXXX account, each in the amount of XXXX to Citizens Bank. XXXX noted that the automatic payments were now in effect and was happy.\nXX/XX/XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX , I began my usual routine of paying my bills, when I noticed that my checking account was short approximately {$3000.00}. I queried Citizens bank and learned that a deduction had been made for {$3000.00} from the bank itself! I couldnt imagine how this could happen and was incensed that the bank would take XXXX XXXX dollars without speaking with me. I was livid and proceeded to the bank to investigate the situation. I learned that not only had they taken XXXX XXXX from my checking account, but ~ {$20000.00} from my savings. They had stripped my accounts to XXXX ! The XXXX and money that I had in checking was from my paycheck deposit the prior day. This means that they took the following : Checking : {$2900.00} Savings : {$20000.00} Subsequently, on the same day, we received certified letters. One letter noted that {$2900.00} had been deducted from my checking accou nt on XX/XX/XXXX . T he second letter noted that {$10000.00} had been deducted from my savings account on the same day, and the third letter was to my daughter XXXX , stating that it had set off a loan # XXXX which satisfied all or part of the outstanding debt in the amount of {$10000.00}. Since this was Saturday we could not pursue it further. I was unable to pay my bills. XX/XX/XXXX XXXX and I went to the Access Center in XXXX , RI to discuss this with them. Although we could reach XXXX on the telephone who was in the building we were not able to see him in person, nor were we able to see a statement of the account. He directed us to another telephone number. That person directed us to send a letter, but could not tell us where to send it. All telephone numbers given to us ( there were many ) led to no information.\nWe went to a branch of Citizens and spoke with the Branch Manager, XXXX XXXX . XXXX tried to be helpful, but after many telephone calls, and two pages of notes, she was unable to tell us if the loan is now satisfied, nor provide us with a statement of activity on the loans. She opened case # XXXX , and told us the only thing we could do to see the loan was go to XXXX XXXX . Again, I was enraged to learn that XXXX had been servicing this loan for the second time and inappropriately managed the situation. We tried to access the loan at XXXX but we were unable to do so, although after arguing with them, several days later we could access through a secured site, but were only able to see the activity between XXXX and XXXX when the loan was returned to Citizens Access Center. That information, by the way is inaccurate according to our accountings.\nXXXX also told us that we should send a letter to get a statement, but did not know who to send the letter to.\nOn the same day, my brother wrote a letter on my behalf to XXXX XXXX XXXX , CEO of Citizens bank, stating the situation and requesting an explanation of the actions and contact within 48 hours. I received a call from XXXX XXXX from the Office of the XXXX stating that this was being investigated. I requested a rendering of the account from XXXX to present.\nXX/XX/XXXX I c alled XXXX and left a message requesting an updat e. XX/XX/XXXX I cal led XXXX and left a message requesting an update. Later that afternoon XXXX called me and stated that the bank would not return the money. She would not state that they had even explored the problem, but just that the head of the Debit Management Department had said no. I inquired as to what my next step could be with the bank, and she told me to write a letter ; however, she was unwilling to give me the name of the head of the Debit Management Department who had just said no, nor any other head of department. She could not provide a statement of the loan accounts. I have written a letter to Citizens Band, but Im highly doubtful that I will receive a response.\nTo date I have not received a rendering of the loan, documentation of its discharge, nor any documentation of the remaining {$9900.00} that has been evacuated from my account or the approximately {$3000.00} unexplained disappearance. I also am named on my fathers accounts and fear that they will attach his money. He is XXXX years old. Together, we have been customers in very good standing of Citizens Bank since XXXX .\nThis whole situation is reprehensible! Also, I am sure I am not the only one that this has happened to if one can infer from the comments that have been made during telephone calls. I wish that this matter be resolved in an efficient and satisfactory manner. I have been a customer of Citizens Bank since XXXX , having had mortgages, equity loans, car loans and the like and have never been late with any payment. They never contacted me by any means. I truly do not understand this.

Today XX/XX/XXXX I received a notification that the complaint submitted by the CFPB to US bank was rejected because apparently the person who submitted the complaint is an unauthorized party. Given I am the owner of the account and I submitted the complaint via the CFPB, this is not true. From the time I submitted the 1st complaint to now, US bank has returned the {$4500.00} removed from my account. They however have not adhered to their policies of notifying me of status by corresponding with me in 10 business days. They continue to not provide information surrounding the incident and are unable to provide any level of explanation as to whether accounts held with US bank are safe. They continue to refuse to deal with me as the account owner even through a complaint lodged through the CFPB.\n\nOriginal incident reported XX/XX/XXXX : On XX/XX/XXXX while reviewing my checking account on line, I noticed a transaction to the amount of {$4500.00} processed for payment using XXXX money transfer service to an unknown person - XXXX XXXX. I immediately called US bank customer service and reported this was an unknown transaction and while on the line I was advised that the transaction had just occurred within past 40 minutes and that it is possible it could be stopped. While on the call with the representative, I was informed that she was contacting the XXXX department to advise. After a short delay, she returned saying that it was not possible to stop the transaction. She advised that a XXXX incident would be submitted and that she would place an immediate freeze on my account. When pressing for more information, I was advised that since this transaction appeared to have been made using my wife 's login credentials, she would need to call in to get more details. Despite advising that my wife did not have login credentials for this account which is a business account, they insisted that these credentials were in existence and consequently she needed to contact US bank directly. That once she called in they would release the information which she could not share with me. I was also advised to call on my branch and have a new account set up as the current account was frozen. I immediately contacted my wife and asked her to call the customer service number I was provided and provide them whatever information was needed and request further details of what transpired. She called immediately only to be told that they could not verify her identity over the phone and that she should visit a branch. She then within less than an hour called on a US Bank branch located on XXXX XXXX, XXXX Colorado and explained the situation and was referred to a personal who then called US bank XXXX department in her presence. The banker at the branch verified my wife 's identity and she then spoke with a representative in the XXXX Department. She requested more information but was unable to have the person she was speaking to provide any further information. It was revealed at that time that the date of birth which US bank had on file was incorrect and this was what prevented them being able to initially verify identity. She was advised that a XXXX investigation would need to be conducted and a response would be provided by mail in 10 business days. No further information could be provided. She then in the presence of the personal banker at the branch, called me to advise that they would not release further information. She asked the banker at that point to speak with me. At that point the banker said to me she had spoken to their XXXX department and that there was no additional information to share. She advised that once the investigation was concluded in 10 days, they would send a letter with findings. At this point, I was again advised to call on a branch and have my account closed and a new account opened. On XX/XX/XXXX, I with my wife, called on my local branch of US bank located In XXXX on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Colorado. I spoke with a member of the banking staff - XXXX XXXX and explained the situation advising that there were 2 issues that needed addressing. The 1st confirming my original account was indeed frozen and that a new account needed to be established, the 2nd being addressing the absence of any intelligible information around the XXXX incident reported. XXXX XXXX immediately contacted US Bank XXXX department and spoke to a party there, and attempted to ascertain what had transpired. He was unable to provide any additional information except to say that it was my wife 's credentials that were used to commit the XXXX. When I explained to him that my wife did not have any login credentials for the business account, he advised that these were credentials established when we had a joint personal Home Owner Line of Credit, checking and savings account. I advised him that that account had been closed some time ago and that these credentials, while not known to my wife at the time the account was active, should nevertheless have been cancelled anyway as the account was closed and in addition never associated with my company account. He advised that there was little he could do and that the issue was being investigated, and we would be informed of the outcome in 10 days. At this time, I expressed concern that other login credentials may exist on my account and requested that the account be checked in the presence of my wife and I. During the process we advised of the incorrect birth date on US banks systems, to which he offered to correct. At this point we were shown the computer screen of her personal details and were shocked to see that they had unknown email, and mobile phone number on my wifes profile. A photo of this screen was taken for my records. At this point we requested that no changes be made, and this be preserved in to ensure it would interfere with their XXXX investigation. We asked that all login credentials for the account apart from 3 be locked or cancelled. Several stale/old/unknown Login IDs were identified and removed. XXXX confirmed that all was in order and that we would hear from US bank in 10 business days.We subsequently set about opening a new bank account, transferring most of the cash from the old account into the new. We also cancelled credit cards and debit cards and initiated process for reissuing new ones as a precautionary measure. On XX/XX/XXXX I submitted an online query on status of the XXXX incident reported, and as of XX/XX/XXXX had not received a response. I consequently called into the XXXX department number ( phone recording available ) only to be advised that there was no open XXXX incident. The the incident reported was closed on XX/XX/XXXX as the incident occurred with my wifes credentials and she need to report it. That no further details could be provided given to me given this was for my wife to address. I explained that we had been through all this and that my wife had been communicated with earlier, in the physical presence of a banker while talking to XXXX department. I further explained that this account, in any case was owned by me and that my wife should not have login credentials associated with it. The agent again said that since this was a XXXX incident involving her that she would need to call in. I advised my wife was with me and she could speak to him now and do whatever he now felt necessary. My wife went through his verification process after 1st informing him that her birth date details on their system are likely incorrect. He requested telephone number we were calling from and for her to login in get last transaction details. She advised she has no login credentials but that I was logged in, and we provided him the details of the last transaction as requested. He successfully verified her and went about informing her that there was no XXXX incident opened and that all he could do was open one now. Exasperated she provided details requested and disconnected without further dialog. Shortly after this call, ( approx. XXXX ) I contacted my US Bank branch from my cell phone ( no recording ) and explained the situation to XXXX XXXX XXXX the banker who had assisted us on XX/XX/XXXX at our branch. I expressed my totla amazement at the response and my dissatisfaction to how this was being handled. He confirmed that when he helped us in person on XX/XX/XXXX, all was in order and that the matter was being addressed. He expressed that he felt the representative my wife and I had spoken to did not have complete details and he would call to find out what the status is and get back to me. XXXX later called back XXXX recording available ) and advised he had escalated the situation, and it was now back on track. He was not able to provide any further details apart from advising that the amount of {$4500.00} will provisionally be returned to my account. I asked him whether the incident had in fact fallen through the cracks and incorrectly closed out. He was not able to confirm but did say that it had been impacted by this being my wifes credentials and they were waiting for a contact from her? I asked explicitly whether they had no record of my wife 1st calling in on her own and then later in the presence of 2 bankers ( 1 being him ). He was not able to provide any explanation or detail of this. I again stated that I believe no action is being taken and stated as the owner of the account they are obliged to communicate with me. I expressed my dissatisfaction that they had likely compromised my account through a breach on their side and were now evading taking action to rectify. I reminded him that I had discovered this XXXX transfer within 40 minutes of it occurring, and that XXXX being a person to person transfer service, it should have been exceedingly easy to identify who the amount was transferred to ( or at least the bank account ), and to reverse or cancel the transaction. Their procrastination and incompetent handling in acting on this is was unacceptable. He advised that we should wait for the {$4500.00} to be reversed into my account and the official notification letter to be sent. A week or so later on XX/XX/XXXX at approx XXXX, My wife received a voicemail to call XXXX XXXX at US bank. When she called approx 20 minutes later she was asked a series of questions surrounding the incident. ( Recording Available ). The questions XXXX set about asking sounded very much like questions asked when reporting a XXXX Incident. She answered the questions and disconnected at approx XXXX. Later on the same day I saw that XXXX called and left VM for me as well to call him. Called and talked through a series of questions and scenarios. ( Recording Available ) On XX/XX/XXXX after still having not been contacted by anyone at US bank for 12 days with missing funds still not being returned and no letter received, I called my Branch and left a VM for XXXX XXXX the banker who has been assisting us. XXXX returned my call at approx. XXXX to advise he had heard nothing and also confirmed that funds had still not been returned to my account. He advised he will contact the responsible person in their XXXX Department to solicit status. While XXXX has been exceedingly helpful this situation is clearly not being adequately addressed despite his efforts. I feel that US bank is mishandling this incident for going on 1 month and evading acceptance of responsibility. They initially closed out the XXXX incident 1st reported despite all efforts to conform with their requests. They have failed to provide a information, reversal of funds or a letter after 10 days of reporting despite this being their policy. It is clear that while we have attempted to report this matter on multiple occasions they are not addressing the situation at all.

I immediately called Chase Bank about the error. They were not able to tell me if the XXXX received {$5.00} or the correct amount of {$500.00} and told me to contact the XXXX XXXXo find out. Upon contacting them, I found that they had only been paid out {$5.00} to their account. I called Chase back and was told that they would transfer the remaining {$490.00} owed to the XXXX and that the XXXX should have that money in their account in XXXX hours. On XXXX, {$490.00} was deducted from my account. On XXXX, I again reached out to the XXXX to see if they had received the {$490.00} and was told that they had not. So I again made a call to Chase bank and was transferred to claims/disputes. After several transfers, I was finally connected to a supervisor named XXXX in Claims. She contacted the Claims Department for Checks and was told that the money had not yet transferred to the XXXX as I had been promised and would not be transferred for another day or XXXX. Having been told XXXX false dates regarding this transfer, I asked if we could stop this transfer from happening so that I could take care of this on my own using a different means of payment to the wedding couple. I was already humiliated that I had had to bother the newly married couple about my gift XXXX times asking them to research this deposit. The supervisor XXXX talked to the Claims ( check ) person again and was told we could stop the transfer to the XXXX. I asked for proof of this transfer stop payment and was given # XXXX. I was told the {$490.00} would be back in my account in XXXX hours. On XXXX, I noticed the {$490.00} was not back in my account as promised and called Chase Claims again ( XXXX. ) I spent XXXX XXXX hours on the phone with Claims being disconnected twice, put on hold indefinitely, and transferred. I spoke with XXXX, Supervisor XXXX who hung up on me, XXXX, XXXX who hung up and XXXX ( a supervisor I was incorrectly transferred to who was in retail. ) On XXXX after being frustrated with the misinformation and disconnections, I called the branch where I opened my checking account in XXXX Ohio and XXXX with XXXX. She started a XXXX way conversation with a supervisor in Claims/Disputes for checks, named XXXX. XXXX said the money was in the XXXX account and that the transfer was not stopped as I had been told. She said she would start an escalation to reverse this and return the money to my account. XXXX said she would talk to her XXXX to start an additional escalation through their branch escalations and get back to me. Not hearing back from XXXX, I called the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX. She told me to give it XXXX more days and I would for sure here from someone regarding these escalations. On XXXX after still hearing nothing, I called back to the XXXX Ohio XXXX and spoke to XXXX. She told me she was even frustrated with this. She also blamed me for not having Private Banking which she assured me that it would have all been handled better. I also was told it was my fault for even investigating the error and that I should have waited for the recipient of my {$500.00} check to notice they were not paid the proper amount. On XXXX, I again reached out to the XXXX for the third time and learned that the {$490.00} was still not in their account despite being told by multiple Chase employees that it was there. On XX/XX/14, I called Claims/Checks again and was connected to a supervisor in Chase Claims escalation named XXXX told her the {$490.00} deducted from my account was missing and not in the XXXX account as I was told. She told me there was nothing more they would do. I asked for some type of proof that the money had been transferred to the XXXX Bank so that the XXXX could call their bank and look for this misplaced money. She said she would not do that .How and why would the bank not be able to show me proof that this money they took from me was actually transferred as they said. I asked to speak with her supervisor and she hung up on me. When I contacted the XXXX XXXX, she said she would not do anything more to help and I need to talk to Claims. Throughout all of these conversations and escalations, I kept asking for something in writing such as an email to confirm what they had told me, but they said that is not their policy. I was told wrong information by Chase employees on phone calls multiple times which has resulted in me losing {$490.00}.

That information consisted of a state-issued ID, copy of the front and back of social security card, and utility bill in their name. Those authorized users that I added were my XXXX sons and aunt. I called and spoke with a rep, it was advised that without the requested documents the account would remain restricted. I expressed my concerns with them.\n\n1. This information was not requested from me to enter the contract with Capital One credit card.\n\n2. As the account holder, I am held responsible for all charges that are made by those I add to my account, their personal information should not be required.\n\n3. XXXX of my sons that were added were under XXXX, do not have utilities in their name as they live at home, and do not have state-issued IDs. Neither of them has jobs nor driver licenses.

My wife also has an account with them and her account was restricted for the same reason and was able to call and provide verbal details to have her account reinstated.\n\nWhen I advised that I was not comfortable providing those details, I ask for them to be removed from the account as authorized users. At that time it was advised that they would not be able to remove them since they were added the requested information is required or the account would remain restricted. After trying to compromise by just removing them or providing the requested information for myself alone. Again, I was told that was also not an option as this is their policy.\nMy wife was able to call in and provide verbal details for each of the authorized users to have her account restricted. Also, she and I have been authorized users on a family friend 's card for over 2 years and have never been requested to provide the \" required '' information, nor has her account ever been restricted by adding us.\n\nI received a letter from Capital One on mid-XXXX XXXX, that stated if this issue was not resolved then both of my accounts would be closed. I again, called on XX/XX/XXXX to try to resolve this issue by reexpressing my concerns and to have the authorized users removed from the account. The last rep that I spoke with was XXXX ( rep ID # XXXX ) he stated that they couldn't be removed. At this point, my wife and I were both speaking to him on speakerphone. She stated that she added the same three people to her account on the same date and her account was also restricted. However, she was able to call, speak to a rep, provide the socials, date of birth, and address. Once she gave that information her account was reinstated on XX/XX/XXXX and has been active since.\nXXXX stated he would look over the account and see what he could do. In the background, there was what sounded like a child speaking and an adult voice. I expressed concern regarding the privacy of my financial information and was place on hold for him to research what could be done to resolve this issue.\nUpon his return, he stated that the requested information is still requested as that is the policy. XXXX also advised that my wife 's account was now restricted again as it was reinstated incorrectly. For 10 months her account was unrestricted, they have collected interest from her on a monthly basis and did not suspect fraud on the card at any other time, even when used out of state for the first time. XXXX was not provided identifying information from my wife to access her account only her name. When we ask to speak to a manager he stated that he was as high up that we could speak to and if we wanted to talk to someone else we would have to call back in.

Please treat this letter as a \" qualified written request '' under the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, 12 U.S.C. Section 2605 ( e ).\n\nI am writing to you to complain about the accounting and servicing of my mortgage and my need for understanding and clarification of various charges, credits, debits, transactions, reversals, actions, payments, analyses and records related to the servicing of my loan from its origination to the present date. To date, the documents and information I have, that you have sent me, and the conversations with your service representatives can not answer my many questions.\n\nIt is my understanding that your company has been accused as engaging in one or more predatory lending and servicing schemes. As a citizen, I am extremely concerned about such practices by anyone, let alone my own mortgage company or anyone who has held a beneficial interest in my QUALIFIED WRITTEN REQUEST COMPLAINT DISPUTE OF DEBT/ VALIDATION OF DEBT TILA REQUEST Page 2 of 8 loan. I am concerned that such abuses are targeting the uneducated and uninformed consumer and disadvantaged, poor, elderly and minorities.\n\nNeedless to say, I am more concerned as an alleged borrower. I am worried that potential fraudulent and deceptive practices by unscrupulous mortgage brokers ; sales and transfers of mortgage servicing rights ; deceptive and fraudulent servicing practices to enhance balance sheets ; deceptive, abusive and fraudulent accounting tricks and practices may have negatively affected my credit rating, mortgage account and/or the debt or payments to which I am legally obligated.\n\nBecause of this and other reasons that leave me to believe that I may be a victim of predatory lending, I am disputing the validity of the current debt you claim I owe. By debt I am referring to : 1. The principal balance claimed owed ; 2. My calculated monthly payment, 3. Calculated escrow payment 4. And any fees claimed to be owed by you or any trust or entity you may represent.\n\nI have reason to believe that the loan terms were misrepresented to me at the time of application and further obscured and/or modified prior to signing. I believe that my income may have been inflated on the application. I also have reason to believe that certain statements were not provided for my approval prior to closing, and that signatures may have been forged on various documents. It is also my belief that certain documents may have not been presented at all. Additionally, I believe that a notary was not physically present to witness my signatures on several pertinent documents and that I was ill advised at the time of closing.\n\nTo independently validate my debt, I need to conduct a complete exam, audit, review and accounting of my mortgage loan from its inception through the present date. Upon receipt of this letter, please refrain from reporting ANY negative credit information [ if any ] to any credit-reporting agency until you respond to each of my requests.\n\nQUALIFIED WRITTEN REQUEST COMPLAINT DISPUTE OF DEBT/ VALIDATION OF DEBT TILA REQUEST Page 3 of 8 I also request that you kindly conduct your own investigation and audit of my account since its inception to validate the debt you currently claim I owe. I would like you to validate this debt so that it is accurate to the penny!\nPlease do not rely on previous or current servicers or originators records, assurances or indemnity agreements and refuse to conduct a full audit and investigation of my account.\n\nI understand that potential abuses by you or a previous servicer could have deceptively, wrongfully, unlawfully and/or illegally : 1. Increased the amounts of my monthly payments 2. Increased the principal balance I owe ; 3. Increased my escrow payments ; 4. Increased the amounts applied and attributed toward interest on my account ; 5. Decreased the proper amounts applied and attributed toward principal on my account ; and/or 6. Assessed, charged and/or collected fees, expenses and misc. charges I am not legally obligated to pay under my mortgage, note and/or deed of trust. 7.\nI am thinking about contracting the Home Owners Foreclosure Hotline and/or one of their affiliates to perform a forensic document review of your investigation and audit of my account. To help me decide if I am going to move forward with a third party auditing company, I need : ( 1 ) copies of all documents pertaining to the origination of the alleged mortgage and note including my loan application ( s ), Right to cancel, deed of trust, note, adjustable rate note, addendum to the note for the interest only payment period, truth in lending statements, good faith estimate ( GFE ), HUD 1, appraisal, and all required disclosures and rate sheets QUALIFIED WRITTEN REQUEST COMPLAINT DISPUTE OF DEBT/ VALIDATION OF DEBT TILA REQUEST Page 4 of 8 associated with this transaction for the above referenced loan. The copies should be legible and all documents shall be copied in their entirety.\n\n( 2 ) A copy of the loan history including all payments made, all fees incurred, what has been paid out of the escrow account, and how all payments were applied. This information should cover the ENTIRE life of the loan.\n\nI want to insure that I have not been the victim of such predatory practices.\nTo insure this, I will be authorizing a thorough review, examination, accounting and audit of my mortgage LOAN # XXXX by a team of mortgage auditors predatory lending experts, consumer advocates, local non-profit agencies, compliance consultants and if needed LEGAL ADVOCATES.

Then I received a letter in the mail on XX/XX/XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX stating that they did not receive my insurance renewal notice. On XX/XX/XXXX I brought to XXXX XXXX attention that they underestimated my insurance by {$1500.00}. That is when they stated that per Fl.

I called them numerous times up til today XX/XX/XXXX. I have recorded conversations with TruHome that I asked permission to record them which they said yes everytime. On XXXX I mailed out a check for {$900.00} which they did not apply to my escrow account until XX/XX/XXXX.

It would take both my income and my spouse 's income to make the mortgage payment let alone living period.

Upon investigation, it was determined that I had mistakenly selected \" savings account '' instead of \" checking account '' while setting up autopay, even though I provided the correct account and routing numbers for my checking account. Their website is difficult to navigate, making setting up automatic payments difficult. I had to phone Regions for help setting up this feature. They walked me through the process and when I mentioned that I couldn't remember if the account and routing I was adding were for my checking or savings account, I was told that the most important thing was to be certain I was entering the correct numbers for the account and routing, making me believe it didn't matter if I checked the XXXX XXXX marked \" checking account '' or \" savings account ''.\n\nRegions Bank 's system did not detect this error, leading to a failed payment attempt.\nDespite having ample funds in my Regions checking account to cover the payment, I was not alerted to the issue until XXXX days had passed. This delay in notification could have been prevented if Regions Bank had a proper alert system in place, similar to other credit card companies. The lack of such an alert system directly contributed to the late payment being reported to the credit bureaus.\n\nOver several phone calls with various Regions Bank departments, I encountered numerous challenges and received conflicting information. Here are the details of some of my interactions : XX/XX/XXXX : I received a call from a Regions agent informing me that my credit card payment was XXXX days past due. I was directed to a different department to investigate the issue, as it was confirmed by the agent that I had properly linked an external account for auto-payments with the correct account and routing numbers. It was eventually determined that the error occurred due to a checkmark being placed next to savings account rather than checking account. This was immediately corrected by me and the balance was made current.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX : XXXX in Customer Service created a ticket ( XXXX XXXX ) to address my request to prevent the late payment from being reported to the credit bureaus, given that the error stemmed from Regions Bank 's inadequate system and poor instructions when activating auto-pay.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX : I called Regions again to discuss how to prevent such an error from occurring in the future and to inquire about alerts that other credit card companies offer, which were not available on my Regions online account. XXXX informed me that the solutions group needed to be contacted to set up notifications for late payments, and she then transferred me to that department.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX : XXXX informed me that Regions can not set up alerts for customers, she didn't know why late payment alerts weren't available to me on my online account, and advised me to contact the credit card department.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX : I spoke with XXXX in the XXXX XXXX department. She initially stated that alerts for late payments were available online, but after further research, informed me that a late or missed payment alert is only available to customers who are not using the autopay feature. This explains why the alert was unavailable to me on my online account.\n\nThe conflicting information and lack of support from Regions Bank exacerbated the issue. Notably, when setting up autopay for a XXXX credit card and deliberately selecting \" savings account '' instead of \" checking account, '' the XXXX system immediately flagged the error and prompted me to correct it, preventing any potential payment issues. They also offer late/missed payment alerts for all credit card holders -- not just those who have opted out of auto-pay. This is the level of service I expected from Regions Bank, but did not receive.\n\nFurthermore, Regions Bank 's refusal to provide missed or late payment alerts to autopay users suggests they believe their autopay feature is infallible. My experience proves otherwise. It's unjust to deny autopay users this essential alert when payments fail, unlike non-autopay customers who can manage this alert as they choose. Not providing autopay users with this alert suggests unwarranted confidence in this feature and neglects the real-world possibility of errors.\n\nThis situation was caused by a combination of Regions Bank 's system flaw, their inadequate instructions on setting up autopay, and the lack of appropriate and timely alerts -- not by any financial irresponsibility on my part. I have worked diligently to recover from the financial devastation that followed a XXXX diagnosis in 2015. Since then, I have maintained a perfect payment history, and this incident is not reflective of my typical financial behavior.\n\nThank you for your time and attention to this matter.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "card", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/9849082", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/987ad43276faeab2fc89", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5138, "company": "REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION", "date_received": "2024-08-19", "product_raw": "Credit card", "issue_raw": "Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem", "sub_issue_raw": "Their investigation did not fix an error on your report", "text_sha256": "987ad43276faeab2fc894846d7fd7ea76117c7a65832a1e9acf3409e731acd71", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I hope this message finds you well.

On XX/XX/XXXX I was again charged {$19.00}, which was credited to XXXX and XXXX XXXX, this lead to my being charged an additional {$25.00} overdraft fee. I contested this charge also and on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX and/or Nationstar issued me a Permanent Credit refunding me both the unauthorized {$19.00} and the {$25.00} overdraft fee. Then on XX/XX/XXXX I received another unauthorized {$19.00} charge credited to XXXX and XXXX XXXX. Again, I disputed this unauthorized charge and asked XXXX to block all future charges made by XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX issued me a full credit, but on XX/XX/XXXX I was again charged {$19.00} by XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I again dispute the charges. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX issued me a Provisional Credit and asked that I sign and return a prewritten form affidavit to dispute the charges. The prewritten form provided only five options to choose from on why I believed the charges were unauthorized none of which fit my situation. I could not in good conscience sign or return the affidavit. XX/XX/XXXX I received my XXXX unauthorized {$19.00} charge from XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I had contacted XXXX several times about the status of the account but was unable to get through to anyone and never received a response from XXXX at that time. It is my belief that I am not the only person being subjected to these repeated unauthorized charges. Since the first monthly charge hit, I removed all money from my old checking account and opened a new checking account. XXXX and/or Nationstar refused to permit me to close my old account. I believe that XXXX and/or Nationstar can continue to charge me {$19.00} monthly. Due to this situation, XXXX and/or Nationstar will only allow me to make minimum payments on my mortgage using my new checking account. This restriction stops me from paying off my mortgage early and/or faster because I can not pay into my escrow account. This situation with XXXX and Nationstar is stressful. I am fearful that I will not be able to pay my mortgage without incurring additional monthly fees that will greatly increase my mortgage.

XXXX XXXX managed the servicing of this and the loan/account number provided was XXXX. I had been making payments through the designated online portal until XX/XX/XXXX when my access to this appeared to be blocked. I was presented with an error message stating my login details were invalid. Believing this was a website issue I gave it a day or two before trying again, but was met with the same error message. I attempted to re-register the account online, however when I entered my account number and last four digits of my social security number the system said it was unable to locate an account. I called XXXX customer care and explained issue and inquired if my note had been sold and/or if it was now being serviced by someone else. The customer care representative stated the note had not been sold, that XXXX were still the servicers and while they had no answer as to why the portal was not working they suggested I mail payment instead. Thinking this would be a one off payment I went into my bank and got a cashiers check ( at my own expense ) and sent this to the address listed the my XXXX payment envelope supplied with the statements. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN, XXXX Through the month of XX/XX/XXXX I made several attempts to login to the XXXX payment portal to see if the access issue had been resolved, but was still getting the same error message. Not wishing to miss a payment I decided to initiate paying my monthly loan payment via the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) bill payment system. I set this up to automatically send out a bill payment check on the XXXX of each month, to the above listed address. The last attempt I made to access the online payment portal was in late XX/XX/XXXX and it was still denying me access ( see Exhibit A ). On or around the XX/XX/XXXX I received via mail, a servicing transfer letter stating my note had indeed been sold to Pentagon Federal Credit Union ( PFCU ) effective XX/XX/XXXX. In this letter it stated that while the note had been transferred, that PFCU does not itself service the loan. The servicer was to remain XXXX Bank and I was provided a new address below for all correspondence ( see Exhibit B ) : XXXX Mail Code XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX As per the new instructions I made XXXX payment via the XXXX bill payment system to above XXXX address. It is worth noting that by the time I was informed of this change I had already made XXXX and XXXX payments. However I had not received any correspondence stating there were issues with the manner in which these payments had been made. In XXXX, out of the blue, I received a letter from XXXX Bank explaining that as per my request they would no longer be contacting me using automated phone messaging services ( see Exhibit C ). I had made no such request and thought this to be highly irregular. I called XXXX customer service and re-confirmed the contact details of my account and at no point during this call was informed of any issue with the account. XXXX 's payment was sent the same way as XXXX and having not heard anything different I believed all was well with the account. In XXXX upon receiving and reviewing the statement I saw the payments for XXXX, XXXX and XXXX had not been applied to my account. Shocked to see this I called XXXX customer service and was told the reason for this was due to an account number discrepancy as a consequence of the loan transfer. More specifically, and contrary to what was referenced in the transfer letter, the representative indicated that PFCU had its own account numbers. The customer service representative assured me that they would be able to apply the payments and correct this issue on their end, but at that time was not able to provide me with an alternative account number. Prior to sending XXXX payment I once again called XXXX to inquire as to what my new account number was. I was told the only account number on file was XXXX ; the same account number listed on the XXXX statement and the same one I have had all along. Not wanting to be late with a payment I sent XXXX check in the same manner as before hoping that the issue would be rectified on the servicers end. In XXXX, as feared, the statement revealed that this issue had not been resolved. I called up XXXX customer service and explained how serious of an issue this was and asked to speak to a supervisor. I was told there was no one available at that time to take my call. Feeling desperate and that I could not leave the issue unresolved for any longer, I called the main telephone number to XXXXs corporate office and explained the issue to the operator who then transferred me to the customer advocacy department. I was assigned a customer advocate by the name of XXXX who I was told would become my point of contact. XXXX explained that her role was to ; audit previous payments on my account ; rectify the current non-application of payments to this and to monitor the account moving forward to ensure this was fully resolved. XXXX also explained that the reason the payments were not being applied was that the loan number used by the new note holder is different from the loan number originally issued when XXXX Bank originated your loan. I asked for this alternative account number but XXXX was unable to provide me with this. I had also noticed that XXXX were now reporting XXXX, XXXX and XXXX payments as unpaid to the credit bureaus. This angered me as I had been told by customer service representatives that my check payments had been received, but not applied to due a supposed account number discrepancy and therefore this was not an issue of non-payment. I spoke to XXXX and explained the situation and asked for this to be corrected and be provided with a letter confirming this so I may use to reverse this on my credit report. I was provided a letter that stated that XXXX was in possession of my payments for the months of XXXX, XXXX and XXXX but these could not be applied due to a different loan number being noted in the check memo line ( see Exhibit D ). However it is worth pointing out that the transfer letter I received from PFCU referenced the same loan number I was originally provided by XXXX ( see Exhibit B ), which is the same account number cited in my monthly statements. Believing that from here the customer advocate would work diligently to resolve the issue I gave XXXX some time to do some research. We touched base a few times through the months of XXXX and XXXX where I was told that she was working with the servicing department and PFCU to fix the problem. In XXXX I received a new statement still showing a growing past due balance indicating that XXXX had still not resolved this issue ( see Exhibit E ). I also received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX notifying me that they had filed a notice of default. In this letter they cite the name of the creditor as PFCU, the servicer as XXXX and the loan number as XXXX ( see Exhibit F ). As of XXXX my credit report shows that XXXX is reporting XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX as unpaid, but XXXX as paid ( see Exhibit G ). This is not what is reflected in the account statements sent by XXXX. It appears that in addition to not applying payments received and withholding my checks, that XXXX is not accurately reporting to the credit bureaus. To this day I am yet to receive any correspondence from XXXX or PFCU regards any new account number to cite when making payments. I hold both XXXX and PFCU responsible for why my payments are not being applied. It is clear I have made all reasonable attempts not only to pay my monthly loan payment to XXXX, but also in contacting XXXX to try and resolve this issue. Please find attached as Exhibit H copies of all the checks sent to XXXX for XX/XX/XXXXto XX/XX/XXXX. This left me feeling helpless as without being provided the correct account number my payments are not being applied and if I do not send the payments I would be defaulting on the loan ; it is a no win situation. Adding to this misery is the fact that these bill payment checks are cleared funds, so I am still out of pocket the loan payments. This issue has had an enormous negative impact on my life. As a consequence of notice of default I am being contacted daily, by phone, email and mail by individuals and companies offering services to help me avoid foreclosure. Additionally my Solar panel provider, XXXX, sent me a letter stating that under the terms and conditions of the Solar contract, XXXX can come to the home and remove these panels believing their assets are at risk. They have also suggested that they would pursue legal action against me to protect their assets. This is all very distressing indeed with me needing to take time off work to try to resolve this and it is starting to take a toll on my health leaving me very anxious. I have had to seek medical intervention and counseling as I struggle to come to terms with the situation. Despite spending many hours trying to resolve this with XXXX, I fear this has gotten out of control and I am requesting that the CFPB investigate XXXXs servicing practices.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "mortgage", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"payment_process": "Trouble during payment process", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay mortgage", "applying": "Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage", "closing": "Closing on a mortgage"}, "label": "payment_process", "src": "cfpb_issue_mortgage"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/2493427", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/2789d1245f7b40ec5224", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 9230, "company": "PENTAGON FEDERAL CREDIT UNION", "date_received": "2017-05-24", "product_raw": "Mortgage", "issue_raw": "Trouble during payment process", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "2789d1245f7b40ec52243d5e3fa5592b932c23c5924d45ffbbdedec5a6f38a86", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I recently reviewed my credit profile and noticed inaccuracies and false accusations and accounts.

I picked up three matching brand items even going for a more expensive item so I could recieve the 10 % discount. I was told to sit and wait which I did. After 30 minutes I was told I was not approved and would have to go through another company. I told them I had a pre approval letter and an hour later the manager approved it. I sat down and waited another 30 minutes and had other customers go ahead of me. I finally stood at the counter to see what was going on and the manager assistant came up to the front desk and told me to sign at the bottom of an ipad and I could go and when I asked what I was signing I was told I would recieve an email stating everything.

The 2 auto loans combined total more than my income. I was forced to purchase both an extended warranty for over 4000.00 plus gap insurance. In addition, I believe I am a victim of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXXXXXX KS whereas Ally Auto Loan is the lender. I requested a loan rescission due to the amount of issues the vehicle I purchased started having after driving it off the lot. I returned it the next day for repairs. The opportunity to earn my business has faded over the past few weeks. My trust in the dealership has depreciated and my desire to purchase a reliable vehicle from this establishment has become nonexistent. These feelings do not come without reason. My initial purchase of the XXXX XXXX was thwarted when the check engine light came on after driving it for a period not greater than two weeks. After the service department stated they had taken it to a local XXXX dealer for a firmware update the light came back on after a day or two of driving and the 12v outlets did not work. My husband and I thought to upgrade to the XXXX since we liked driving it as a loaner. We were able to get into a frost grey version which came with a list of acceptable problems. Those problems were acceptable until the risk of overheating entered the picture because it sprang an antifreeze leak due to a cracked hose in the coolant system. After a bit of research, I found out that there were over XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX recalled. The recall message from XXXX stated, if the coolant leak goes undetected, it could lead to an accumulation of coolant in ( or on ) the catalytic converter heat shield insulation and then catch on fire. To top it all off, the warning light appeared stating the vehicle is due for regular maintenance which is priced at $ XXXX {$350.00}. This is the second vehicle that I have attempted to purchase that has had both minor and major issues that were not addressed prior to me taking ownership. Everyone at the dealership has been friendly, cordial, and inviting. There have been multiple examples of someone stating something that was not exactly truthful. In fact, I began to lose faith when someone told my husband that the TPM light is on because it is set that way prior to selling a vehicle. To disprove this myth, we put air in the tire and the TPM light went off. Encountering all the small situations where a vehicle is not in proper running order, dishonesty, and not speaking openly about the known flaws of a vehicle has prevented me from developing relationships, trust, or confidence to purchase a vehicle that does not have the potential to experience a breakdown in the near future. I trusted the sales and finance teams to provide me with a reliable vehicle where my husband, children, grandchildren, friends, and I can reach our destinations safely, this has not been the case. Instead I have received 2 vehicles that fall under the Kansas Lemon Laws. However the finance manager has violated the Truth in Lending and the Kansas Lemon Laws because they are forcing me to purchase the car and none of the problems have been fixed and now I am without a vehicle and have been without the vehicle I purchased the past 2 weeks. I contacted Ally and to my surprise they show 2 auto loans for the vehicles I returned to the dealership. I was shocked and now I feel stuck and wish I would have done my research. Lessons Learned from this nightmare in buying a new vehicle to pick up my grandchildren in and spend time with them. The finance manager told me they would return the loan financed to the lender Ally Financial and therefore I trusted they sent the funds back and now I am stuck with 2 auto loans with no vehicle. Both loans total more than my income alone. I reached out to Ally Auto Financial and they referred me back to the dealership with no intention to resolve the issue. This has been extremely stressful for me, I am a grandmother and the only thing I wanted to do was find a affordable reliable vehicle and now I have lost all trust in both the auto industry and auto lending industry.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "vehicle_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing the loan or lease", "end_of_loan": "Problems at the end of the loan or lease", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan or lease", "repossession": "Repossession"}, "label": "getting_a_loan", "src": "cfpb_issue_vehicle_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/5808562", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/b2c0b6a39a190b662d07", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4201, "company": "ALLY FINANCIAL INC.", "date_received": "2022-07-25", "product_raw": "Vehicle loan or lease", "issue_raw": "Getting a loan or lease", "sub_issue_raw": "Fraudulent loan", "text_sha256": "b2c0b6a39a190b662d07f7550a4589ced2dc05f2932b4c3873bf345718c25c6f", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I was promised and verbally agreed if I return the vehicle back that it would not be put in my credit report.

There were 13 checks totaling {$31000.00} written in seven weeks between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. Wells Fargo did not detect the fraud on my account despite the following red flags that should have alerted the bank : 1. The signature on the fake checks bore absolutely NO resemblance to mine. It wasnt even close.\n2. All the fraudulent checks had check numbers that had already been used by me, most within 6 months previous.\n3. Most of the check amounts were abnormally high for my banking history. Seven of them were over {$2500.00} with two being for {$6000.00}. My house payment is usually my highest expense and it isnt even {$2500.00}.\n4. Several of the fraudulent checks were deposited on the same day and some were within one day of each other. This should have been a red flag. Within 7 weeks they had withdrawn {$31000.00} all written to the same person. To say this is an abnormally high amount of money to be withdrawn from my account in such a short period of time for the same person is a major understatement.\n5. The fraudulent checks all bore the same persons name, XXXX XXXX. I use checks for paying the same monthly utility and credit card bills, not people. This was a major abnormality in my 30 years of using this account.\n6. The fraudulent checks increased the volume of checks closing against my account in XX/XX/2020 by 100 %. This was highly unusual.\n7. The fraudulent checks were on paper stock that doesnt look like mine which I have been using for over 20 years.\n8. The thief used my checking account as a back door to my credit card. They stole money I didnt even have by overdrawing my checking account and activating my Wells Fargo credit card overdraft protection. Yet even the checks repeatedly overdrawing my account didnt get Wells Fargos attention. ( Wells Fargo did not send an alert text to my husbands phone for the overdrafts. His last text alert from them was on XX/XX/2020, 2.5 months before the fraud began. Neither did they email or call to alert me that my account overdrafted {$9000.00} onto my credit card ) All of the points above should have alerted the bank to fraud on my account as it is their business to daily oversee my financial transactions and they were in the best position to do so. Wells Fargo advertises its checking account by stating, Your account comes with 24/7 fraud monitoring and secure options to make purchases, send money, and pay bills. As the manager of our account, Wells Fargo had the best opportunity to catch the fraud and stop it, but they did not. A Wells Fargo representative from the Wells Fargo Executive Office told me that the bank has no obligation to site examine items that close against a customers account. When asked what protection the bank provides for my checking account, she told me that they rely on me to check my account every 30 days.\n\nI did identify and report the fraud within 30 days of the statement which had 11 of the thirteen fraudulent checks. However it was 40 days from the first two fraudulent charges so the bank is using that as an excuse not to refund my money.\n\nAccording to 7 American Jurisprudence, page 371, section 516 : \" A bank is under an obligation to its depositor to use care in scrutinizing checks paid in order to detect forgeries, and to render its accounts to prevent the perpetration of frauds upon its depositor. Therefore, if a bank, in the exercise of proper care, could have discovered the alteration or forgery of a customer 's checks, it can not throw the loss caused by paying them upon the depositor merely because he failed to examine his account. Or, stating the rule in terms of negligence, a bank which is guilty of negligence in failing to discover an alteration or forgery can not avoid liability on the ground that the depositor was negligent in failing to examine his balanced passbook, statement of account, or returned checks. ( Sommer v. Bank of Italy, supra ; Frankini v. Bank of America, supra ; National Dredging Co. v. President, etc., Farmers ' Bank, supra ; Leather Manufacturers ' Bank v. Morgan, 117 U.S. 96 [ 6 S. Ct. 657, 29 L. Ed . 811 ]. ) I contacted Wells Fargo several days after filing the fraud claim and learned that they hadnt even looked at the case yet. The Wells Fargo representative I spoke with stated that she would put an urgent note on the case to get it looked at more quickly. This delay of one week gave the thief ample time to realize my account had been closed and remove their money from the XXXX XXXX XXXX account they were depositing the fraudulent checks into. The Wells Fargo fraud department later reported to me that there was no money recovered so they were not obligated to return any funds to me. Wells Fargo has also denied my request to dispute or remove the overdraft charges the thief caused on my credit card of over {$9000.00}.\n\nIt is shocking to me that somebody can create counterfeits with a fake signature that bears absolutely no resemblance to mine and repeatedly use them to deposit unusually large sums of money totaling over {$31000.00} into their account over seven weeks without my bank noticing this gross abnormality. In my 30 years of banking history with this Wells Fargo checking account, Ive never written checks for 30 percent of my annual income in seven weeks.\n\nContrary to Wells Fargos claim that the loss is my fault for not notifying them within 30 days of the first fraudulent charges on my checking account, 7 American Jurisprudence, page 371, section 516 clearly states that it is the banks responsibility to scrutinize checks to detect forgeries on its depositors account. Wells Fargo did not do this and stated so. In fact, they did not appear to have any fraud monitoring measures in place at all. Therefore, the burden of the loss should be born completely by the bank because of their negligence.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "bank_account", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/4227428", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/1c990bc80fad9aaf2bc7", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5995, "company": "WELLS FARGO & COMPANY", "date_received": "2021-03-18", "product_raw": "Checking or savings account", "issue_raw": "Problem with a lender or other company charging your account", "sub_issue_raw": "Transaction was not authorized", "text_sha256": "1c990bc80fad9aaf2bc732eb4c109653424287aa6317671a608786261a526dea", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Texas XXXX Date of Birth : XX/XX/XXXX SS # : XXXX TransUnion LLC Consumer Dispute Center po box XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX Dear, Transunion Re : This is not a regular dispute.

I wanted to send a wire and check my balances. I was asked if I needed to update my information, which I did ( address and tel numbers ) on XXXX of my accounts. I was told that \" I have to sign the change forms '', which I did. Afterward, I asked to get a copy of all the documents that I signed, and I was told that I could not have the copies. It was explained by more than XXXX employee, including the manger of the branch, that the policy forbids that they release those \" internal '' forms to me. I explained that as soon as my signature was required, and I signed the form, that whether they considered them \" internal '' or not, I was entitled to copies of my own documents that contained my signature. 3+hours later, I was told that the district manager would contact me, which she did. In the meantime, and since that time I still do not have copies of the forms that I signed, even though I requested them at each step.\n1. I have asked or a copy of the policy or policies that explain ( s ) the bank 's position on refusing to provide copies of forms signed by a customer of Capital One to said customer after he signs them.\n2. Though I was repeatedly told at the branch that this is \" the policy '' I have been given no straight, unequivocal answer as to whether such a policy exists ; nor have I been told that the bank will provide me with that or any other explanation as to why their address forms or any other documents which contain my signature may not be provided to me.\n3. I have been told that, according to the \" office of the President '' of Capital One bank, and \" XXXX '' who works in that department, that \" there are no disclosures '' that delineate the policy regarding the bank 's refusal to provide copies to the client of forms he just signed, but that any details about such policies as well as whether they exist is an \" internal '' issue.\n4. The answer in # XXXX is an example of the doublespeak and equivocation that I am describing : \" no disclosures '' in my understanding means no approved public material that the bank will release to explain their policy. That does NOT answer the question as to whether the bank is taking the position that they flatly refuse to make copies of a client 's signature and give it to him as part of ANY FORM that he signed.\n5. Another example is when I was told that \" if I want help from '' the office of the president that I 'm going to have to be specific about the \" documents that I am requesting. '' I told them that \" any form that has my signature on it '' are the forms that I am requesting in my particular case, but also:6. Because apparently the bank has a POLICY to refuse copies of client-signed documents to the client who signed them / this is a larger issue than just my particular case : The POLICIES as Well.\n7. I repeatedly suggested that if the bank would simply provide me their policy which explains how and when they refuse copies to clients, or the REGULATIONS from the OCC or the FED that creates an exception to the obvious logical position that any responsible company or person would provide such copies, I would happily go on about my business.\n8. In the meantime, I have no answers, nor do I have copies of the policies that I requested nor copies of paperwork with my signature, which I requested over 24 hours ago.

I am currently not able to provide for my children, I have XXXX and I also help my elderly parents which I have been providing assistance to. They are garnishing close to {$500.00} per month. I am not able to pay my rent in XXXX. I received a copy of the letter today from my employer thinking it was a court order which gives consumers the right to respond and settle the debt. It is not a court order, but a letter which I have attached. I am unable to survive with this kind of money being deducted from my account without sufficient notification to settle this dispute.\n\nThe letter is attached which was obtained today. I contacted them with the number retrieved from the letter trying to find validity.\n\nBased on the law they quoted, the following did not occur. : ( 2 ) the individual shall be provided written notice, sent by mail to the individuals last known address, a minimum of 30 days prior to the initiation of proceedings, from the guaranty agency or the Secretary, as appropriate, informing such individual of the nature and amount of the loan obligation to be collected, the intention of the guaranty agency or the Secretary, as appropriate, to initiate proceedings to collect the debt through deductions from pay, and an explanation of the rights of the individual under this section ; ( 3 ) the individual shall be provided an opportunity to inspect and copy records relating to the debt ; ( 4 ) the individual shall be provided an opportunity to enter into a written agreement with the guaranty agency or the Secretary, under terms agreeable to the Secretary, or the head of the guaranty agency or his designee, as appropriate, to establish a schedule for the repayment of the debt ; ( 5 ) the individual shall be provided an opportunity for a hearing in accordance with subsection ( b ) on the determination of the Secretary or the guaranty agency, as appropriate, concerning the existence or the amount of the debt, and, in the case of an individual whose repayment schedule is established other than by a written agreement pursuant to paragraph ( 4 ), concerning the terms of the repayment schedule ; ( 6 ) the employer shall pay to the Secretary or the guaranty agency as directed in the withholding order issued in this action, and shall be liable for, and the Secretary or the guaranty agency, as appropriate, may sue the employer in a State or Federal court of competent jurisdiction to recover, any amount that such employer fails to withhold from wages due an employee following receipt of such employer of notice of the withholding order, plus attorneys fees, costs, and, in the courts discretion, punitive damages, but such employer shall not be required to vary the normal pay and disbursement cycles in order to comply with this paragraph ; ( 7 ) if an individual has been reemployed within 12 months after having been involuntarily separated from employment, no amount may be deducted from the disposable pay of such individual until such individual has been reemployed continuously for at least 12 months ; and ( 8 ) an employer may not discharge from employment, refuse to employ, or take disciplinary action against an individual subject to wage withholding in accordance with this section by reason of the fact that the individuals wages have been subject to garnishment under this section, and such individual may sue in a State or Federal court of competent jurisdiction any employer who takes such action. The court shall award attorneys fees to a prevailing employee and, in its discretion, may order reinstatement of the individual, award punitive damages and back pay to the employee, or order such other remedy as may be reasonably necessary. Based on the law provided in their letter, not court order the following information is stated : I was never contacted via phone, mail, email or any other entity. If they were able to acquire my employment information, surely they could have contacted me if they had no way of contacting me. None of this occurred. I am not able to pay basic bills with this wage garnishment. I 'm am behind on basic needs after 3 garnishment deductions. Help is desperately needed in this matter.\n\n( b ) Hearing requirements A hearing described in subsection ( a ) ( 5 ) shall be provided prior to issuance of a garnishment order if the individual, on or before the 15th day following the mailing of the notice described in subsection ( a ) ( 2 ), and in accordance with such procedures as the Secretary or the head of the guaranty agency, as appropriate, may prescribe, files a petition requesting such a hearing. If the individual does not file a petition requesting a hearing prior to such date, the Secretary or the guaranty agency, as appropriate, shall provide the individual a hearing under subsection ( a ) ( 5 ) upon request, but such hearing need not be provided prior to issuance of a garnishment order. A hearing under subsection ( a ) ( 5 ) may not be conducted by an individual under the supervision or control of the head of the guaranty agency, except that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to prohibit the appointment of an administrative law judge. The hearing official shall issue a final decision at the earliest practicable date, but not later than 60 days after the filing of the petition requesting the hearing.", "questions": {"issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "lender_or_servicer", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/2542777", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/df5b83c59db96a217a2c", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6028, "company": "National Enterprise Systems, Inc.", "date_received": "2017-06-14", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "sub_issue_raw": "Trouble with how payments are being handled", "text_sha256": "df5b83c59db96a217a2c67f24f202ca4c8c0f5101d3713118f81dde9f5fe0d96", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "On the XXXX of XXXX, Barclay Loan received a cashiers check from XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$18000.00} to pay off the Barclay Loan.

Every two weeks for years Ditech has been sent {$500.00} every two weeks. Their policy is they have an account called unapplied funds that partial payments when received would stay until full payment is received. However what I was noticing is that Ditech was not adhering to that practice and allowing the money intended for payment to accumulate in unapplied funds. Every month I called explained how I wanted the payment to be applied with the overage to principle and each time I called I was told the matter would be resolved and it continued for 9 months continuously. PLEASE NOTE : I record all calls with Ditech and can substantiate each call/ contact with them regarding my account and validate each time I was told the matter would be fixed.\nDue to the practice of Ditech I accumulated multiple late fees erroneously with no notifications In receiving my XXXX , the calculation was noted erroneously by my accountant and I noted a late fee I involved XXXX XXXX the owner of my loan and involved them also of the practice of Ditech in XXXX . They have been no help in attempting to resolve matters and have even absolved themselves of all responsibility for the practice of Ditech In XXXX XXXX I spoke with a director and a loan process personnel and was told that due to an upgrade their system was incapable of recognizing how to address my partial payments and a reallocation of my entire loan was made. However in a review of the allocation of the funds allegedly being applied appropriately my principal balance increased instead of decreasing. I have written Ditech multiple times requesting a review and received an email from their AVP XXXX XXXX stating that the allocation was correct and they will not address my concerns. In XXXX XXXX I received an escrow shortage statement stating that my payments would increase because my escrow analysis was low .In calling Ditech I was first told my property taxes had increased and that contributed to the increase. This was a lie, the city treasurer confirmed my taxes remained the same. Then I was told that city had sent them my storm water bill and they would pay that on my behalf. However, I was paying my stormwater bill on my own via web bill through my bank and there were no delinquencies. This prompted an inquiry to why now would the stormwater bill be sent to the company and confirmed by the city treasurer again the practice is not to send duplicate billings to the owner and the mortgage company. the only time they would if its requested which they confirmed it was, but it was already paid by me. This prompted a complaint with the BBB and now I have received another analysis indicating that I am in NOW in a surplus and my monthly payment has decreased {$120.00}. I have ceased sending the overage amount and have complied with only sending the intended amount due for the month of {$880.00} and my funds still continue to be transferred to their unapplied funds sitting there with multiple calls and emails sent to them demanding to apply to the intended payment even with the direction indicated on the memo.\nDue to this companies continued errors it has placed my account in default when in fact I have been paid ahead on my loan by one month and they have sent a collector to my home, sent multiple collection letters. I have filed a protective order against the company and a cease and desist regarding being in collections when my account is well within in compliance This company is in violation of the fair collection act because I was never in default, never have been late with payments THEIR practice of mishandling payments has caused multiple errors. I have given them 1 year to fix this and as of today, their AVP has responded after 45 days of no response that they are still working on matters.

I have sent proof in XXXX or XXXX of different police reports of identity theft and not sure why it's still not there. I have also been cleared of collections after direct contact with a consumer with proof of identity theft and one of the collectors is the same collection agency contacting me again after I received a letter they would not contact me again. And now that they have my actual address and phone number, I'm being harassed I also know of a law that once was present that if a company keeps selling off a debt not paid that their insurance pays for it. How many years and times are they allowed to collect from their insurance? Wouldn't it be fraud to keep collecting from their insurance as many times I have disputed this? I also know of a distant cousin I've never met in person but know of with the same name as me, as many others in our family line named after a great great Aunt but born a year early than I was in XXXX, that I have had an issue with pharmacies trying to give me her medication and I would half to argue isn't mine. And they would ask if I was born in XXXX, and half to state no I was born in XXXX! That lives in XXXX XXXX, mo.

How can they reopen that if a judge signed it off in bankruptcy, if this is the card they are referring to?? I can't remember the lawyers name that I had, but they were across the street from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX. Isn't that against the law also? To reopen a debt that was signed off by a bankruptcy judge??? I think a lot of these collection agencies need investigated and some of these credit card companies when there is proof of identity theft, and apparently after a year the person and group of people that stole my purse XXXX XXXX has decided to commit fraud again. And XXXX of those people even called in stating she owned the shoe department that I never got my money back from when they decided to buy shoes to return and because I went to the store and made them check their cameras if I was in their store when the theft was done using my card to purchase the shoes. In the man who sold them said he thought it was odd she had XXXX purses and dumped it in the floor to find a card she could use before the bank had the chance to close my card while I was on the phone with the bank when they used it and I was getting the text alerts everywhere they went to use my cards. As they went to XXXX to use my XXXX card for {$1.00} at gas station and realized they weren't able to use it. But managed a year later somehow to open a new card in another name I would not ever use, while I had my card, until I noticed it. Called XXXX XXXXXXXX and when they realized it was fraud they closed that card where they couldn't keep using it. Social security number on my credit file and phone numbers that weren't mine. I'm also getting a XXXX XXXX collection now from this same collection agency that I'm unaware of! I am a prepaid customer until I signed on with XXXX and now that XXXX XXXX XXXX im with XXXX. I tried XXXX XXXX but paid the phone off and returned the router because they kept letting someone else use my identity to buy some kind of devices I have never received ever at an address I never lived at before, also in a whole different county in a different state all that this was taken place. I can't be in four or five different places at once. The XXXX said that this would take time to resolve, but this has gotten ridiculous. And I have seen my score of XXXX plunge to XXXX after asking the credit score place to speak on my behalf because I was tired of repeating myself and getting nowhere. I have asked to be repaid for the identity theft and how it has affected our life. Even with my children 's identity. And that's when it starts to get silent for a very short period. I'm asking for help to get paid for the identity theft and the mix ups of someone else as how it has effected us. I also have noticed when I went to get title to my XXXX that they said I had another XXXX?? Since when do I own two vehicles at same time? And I have noticed other issues.. And most of this revolves around this collection agency and two cellphone companies I have never had, except for a month with XXXX XXXX and then paid it off and we t back to prepaid, and the main reason of trying them, is to see where these devices I never received was opened up at. In which they said they couldn't tell me anything but that it was bought in or near XXXX XXXX, mo and that I would half to talk to them in person since I couldn't verify the security check with that account.

After a lengthy process, including a 6-month trial period of paying what would be my modified mortgage payment on time, I was able to qualify for a loan modification under the Federal Housing Administrations Home Affordable Modification Program ( FHA-HAMP ) with my original home loan servicer XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ).\nAs evident by Home Loan Modification Documents ( see attachment ) this loan modification went into effect on XX/XX/XXXX. The first check to cover this first payment ( {$1900.00} ) was sent on XX/XX/XXXX ( attachment First Payment XXXX ). Two things happened to this payment. First, it arrived at XXXX BEFORE the modification went into effect. Because of this ( according to XXXX ) the check could not be applied to the loan modification. The refund check was drafted by XXXX XXXX XXXX and a check in the same amount reissued on XX/XX/XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. # XXXX ) through the US Postal Service ( Affidavit for Arrest attachment ). This check was stolen from the mailbox at my current residence by my ex-husband, signatures were forged on the check, and the check was unlawfully deposited by my ex-husband into his bank account on XX/XX/XXXX ( see Affidavit for Arrest and Forged Check and Signature Card attachments ).\nFrom the outset of the loan modification the FIRST payment was obviously missing, a case of theft, my next payment in XXXX of XXXX and EVERY payment since has been on time for both XXXX ( thru XX/XX/XXXX ) and for Carrington Home Mortgages ( who assumed the loan in XX/XX/XXXX ).\nThe initial issues with this loan arose with XXXX XXXX XXXX when the first missing payment began showing as an overdue payment on my monthly statements in late XXXX/earlyXXXX. I did not know at this time of the theft of the first payment check. Then the phone calls started ( several a week ) warning of foreclosure if I didnt come current on my payments. Then the monthly letters started also warning of foreclosure if I didnt come current on my payments. Then my credit was ruined with running 30 day late assessed to my credit history since late XXXX. According to my bank records every payment had been cashed by XXXX so the question was how was I missing a payment? I then spent tens of hours on the phone with multiple different with XXXX representatives over the next year and a half asking a simple question. What payment is missing? Every time I would explain my bank statements showed everything went through. Every time I would have the representative investigate my file and say something along the lines of I cant really tell from here that theres anything wrong, you just need to pay to get current. This was not an answer to my question and I wasnt going to pay nearly {$1900.00} for a missing payment that wasnt missing. Occasionally these conversations would get bumped up to supervisor, same results, no answers, just pay the money or face the consequences.\nBecause of the running 30-day delinquency on my credit history I was also unable to refinance my house when interest rates first dropped in the mid XXXX. Refinancing would have not only saved me thousands of dollars but I had to do it by court mandate in order to get my ex-husbands name off of the mortgage.\nIt was not until XXXX/XXXX/XXXX that someone finally said Send us ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) your checking statements and we will investigate it ( XXXX Customer Service XXXX attachment ). I sent the same bank statements that are attached to this complaint to XXXX XXXX XXXX showing every payment on this account being accounted for. Thirty days for our research department to investigate this I was told. Never got a response, and when I did inquire to XXXX by phone about 60 days later the representative could tell me nothing. No notes in her computer, no verification of the documents Id sent, nothing.\nThen, in late XXXX a XXXX representative, who apparently was much brighter than the dozen I had talked with over the last 2 years, was looking though my files and noted that Your first payment was returned to you because we ( XXXX ) had received it prior to you loan modification being finalized. It took 2 YEARS for someone at XXXX to tell me my first payment never happened and why it never was applied to my mortgage. Once I had this critical piece of information I went back, pulled the check, realized what had happened and filed a criminal complaint. I also notified XXXX what I suspected had happened, sent in the preliminary arrest affidavit, and was told well fix things once the case is settled. I first attempted to reclaim the {$1900.00} directly from my ex-husband without involving the court system. This lasted about 12 months with no resolution. I then turned the case over to local law enforcement around XX/XX/XXXX. From the time of the initial discovery of the theft until final prosecution was approximately 18 months ( attachments Affidavit for Arrest, DA letter, FinaXXXX Sentencing, forged check signature card ).\nAt some point in XXXX my monthly statements changed again. Now it was behind by TWO payments ( attachment XXXX statement XXXX ). Another series of phone calls to XXXX, tens of wasted hours asking multiple representatives and supervisors the question What payment is missing? again resulted in the same responses Were not sure.but you have to pay or were going to foreclose.\nIn XXXX of XXXX I was notified that my loan was being purchased by and would be serviced by Carrington Home Mortgage ( CHM ) effective XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX I called CHM to explain both the status of the theft case and my disputing of a second missing payment on my account to. I was told to 1 ) submit a theft affidavit ( see attached ) and to call back in one month since we dont have your entire file from XXXX and they have xx days to get it to us.\nWhen it was clear the case was going to be successful I made two payments to CHM in XX/XX/XXXX. One payment on XX/XX/XXXX for {$2000.00} was to cover the first ( stolen ) payment ( including late fees ) of this loan. I did this 3 months ahead of the actual restitution payment as a show of good faith to CHM. The second payment of {$1900.00} on XX/XX/XXXX was my regular monthly payment to XXXX. At this point I was still behind one payment, CHM still could not account for it, and I still had a running 30 day late on my credit report.\nAt this point I should have been 1 ) Fully current on my modified loan and 2 ) Should have had all the running 30 day late payments from XXXX on my credit history expunged. But since XXXX added a 2nd missing payment to my account, again with no explanation as to what payment was missing even in the face of bank records to show otherwise, this saga continued.\nMuch as I had done with XXXX, in XXXX of XXXX ( Carrington Research XXXX ) I forwarded the same documents attached to this letter to the research department of CHM. The response to this inquiry was CHM only looking at the loan for the past 3 months since they assumed it and claiming they had not yet received the full file from XXXX. Same process repeated in XXXX of XXXX. Talked to a CHM representative early XX/XX/XXXX, was told that she would look into it, got a fax number, heard nothing, tried to contact via fax ( Carrington Letter XXXX ), no response. Resent the documents from this letter to CHM research department ( Carrington Document Receipt XXXX ). Again, no response.\n\nIve have gone to great lengths to resolve this issue of a bogus delinquent payment and still am unable to have an adequate resolution. XXXX is primarily responsible for this issue. My bank records show my only missed payment was my first payment and that was due to a theft case. XXXX was made aware of the theft, was kept up to date on the status of the case, still added a 2nd mystery missing payment to my account. Carrington Home Mortgages has inherited this mess but has proven equally incompetent in resolving this situation despite receiving adequate documentation on multiple occasions.\nI am tired of receiving multiple calls per week for 5 years over a bogus missing payment. Im tired of receiving monthly notices of threatened foreclosure over a bogus missing payment. I have been prevented from attempting to refinancing my house multiple times at a significantly lower rate over the past 4 years and still have my ex-husband listed on mortgage over a missing bogus payment. My credit has been wrecked for 5 years with running 30/60 day late payments over a bogus missing payment ( s ).

Congress said I have the right to decide what I deem private. I deem my hard inquiry and THESE NEGATIVE ACCOUNTS account to be private and I DO NOT WANT THIS INFORMATION SHARED ON MY CREDIT REPORT. FDCPA 807 misleading false reporting THE INFORMATION YOU ARE REPORTING WOULD LEAD A FUTURE CREDITOR TO BELIEVE I APPLIED FOR ALL THESE ACCOUNTS & INQUIRIES, when in reality it wasn't me, it was a scammer. Reporting these false things is very misleading. You are in violation because you did not witness me sign for these inquiries or accounts, so you can't actually verify that they are accurate, but yet you still reported these things to my credit report which goes against the FCRA laws for FAIRNESS. 15 USC 1681 n Civil liability for willful noncompliance You willfully accepted this credit information about me without verifying with your own two eyes that it was me who applied for this credit. Willful compliance is punishable up to { {$1000.00} } per violation. 18 U.S. Code 1028A - Aggravated identity theft You shared my information with numerous creditors without getting my consent first. you are criminally liable for aggravated identity theft which is punishable for up to 2 years. 15 U.S. Code 6802 ( b ) 1 ( ) ( a ) ( A ) ( B ) ( C ) - Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information DIDN'T DISCLOSE TO ME THAT I HAD THE RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THIS INFORMATION BEING SHARED. THAT WAS VERY deceptive OF YOU. You never explained to me that I can exercise a nondisclosure option. I feel like my consumer rights have been violated, and I have been taken advantage of. FDCPA 8012 furnishing deceptive forms You furnished these inaccurate inquiries and accounts as if they were accurate when they were never validated according to GAAP, so you don't even know if these accounts are accurate, but yet you still took it upon yourself to report this inaccurate information. Also, you reported that I owe a 'debt ', but nowhere on my credit report do I see a Negative balance, ( I don't see a negative sign in front of any numbers, only positive ). By you telling me I owe a \" debt '', but reporting positive balances to my credit report is very deceptive. 15 U.S. Code 1692f. Unfair practices A debt collector may not use unfair or unconscionable means to collect or attempt to collect any debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct a violation of this section : ( 1 ) The collection of any amount ( including any interest, fee, charge, or expense incidental to the principal obligation ) unless such amount is expressly authorized by the agreement creating the debt or permitted by law. There is no law that says I have to pay a bill. ( 8 ) Using any language or symbol, other than the debt collector 's address, on any envelope when communicating with a consumer by use of the mails or by XXXX, except that a debt collector may use his business name if such name does not indicate that he is in the debt collection business. This company sent letters to me with a LOGO on it instead of their address. That is a SYMBOL that they are a debt Collection business. 15 U.S. Code 1602 - Definitions and rules of construction ( e ) The term \" person '' means a natural person or an organization. ( f ) The term \" credit '' means the right granted by a creditor to a debtor to defer payment of debt or to incur debt and defer its payment. Under 15 USC 1681s-2 this agency is in violation because they furnished information relating to me to the consumer that was inaccurate. I told them that this was inaccurate and they still reported it to my credit report. I AM THE ORIGINAL CREDITOR AND I DO NOT GRANT YOU THE RIGHT TO DEFER ANY PAYMENTS TO ME. 15 U.S Code 1681 a ( 4 ) Consumer Right to privacy You are reporting very private matters on my credit report. The FCRA says that the consumer has sole say so over matters I deem to be private to me. I happen to find matters about where I APPLIED TO, AND WHO I \" OWE '' MONEY TO, to be very private. By you sharing this information, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. You are liable for all damages that I suffered because of your illegal activities. FDCPA 806 harassment in abuse I feel very harassed and abused by your actions. I already contacted the creditors AND THE CFPB AND XXXX AND ATTORNEY GENERAL OFFICE AS WELL and told them that these accounts were inaccurate, but they still reported negatively to my credit report without my consent. Every time I log in and check my credit report and see these inaccurate items on my credit report, I feel much abused. Creditors keep calling and sending letters to me about these mysterious \" debts ' that are not validated by the original creditor, which makes me feel very harassed AND SAD. Section 1581a ( 3 ) defines Identity Theft as fraud committed using identifying information of another person. These creditors illegally obtained my information without my true consent and they obtained credit from other financial institutions using my information. This is identity theft. 15 U.S. Code 1692b ( 2 ). Acquisition of location information Any debt collector communicating with any person other than the consumer for the purpose of acquiring location information about the consumer shall- ( 2 ) Not state that such a consumer owes any debt ; but yet these debt collectors contacted these third-party credit reporting agencies with my information including my address ( location ) and they told them I owed a \" debt '' that they reported to my credit report illegally. 15 U.S. Code 1666b. Timing of payments Nowhere in the TILA, FCRA, FDCPA does it define a Late Payment, but yet you are reporting \" late payments '' to my credit report. that is very inaccurate and deceptive.

I request the return of those payments to be mailed to me by check. 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of debts 1 am the original creditor, ONLY I CAN VALIDATE ANY DEBTS. I do not validate these debts or accounts. You tried to trick me into thinking you are the original creditor when in reality, ONLY I CAN EXTEND CREDIT so therefore I am the original creditor.

Account number XXXX b. Original balance {$22000.00} c. Date opened XX/XX/XXXX d. Original creditor a hospital The debt collector, Wakefield, and Associates, LLC, obtained this debt for collection. I received letters from the debt collector stating I owed a hospital and a hospital the following amounts over three letters. The letters regarding the debt ; XX/XX/XXXX with reference number XXXX and account number XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX with reference number XXXX and account number XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX with reference number XXXX and account number XXXX. I replied to each one of these collection letters requesting debt validation via certified letter.\n\nThey replied to my validation request in one letter on XX/XX/XXXX which included an account details statement with four amounts which included the three amounts they sent letters regarding and an additional one they added at this time and that I had not received in a collection letter or any other form of communication until this letter. Also included were invoices that do not appear to be originals from hospital but invoices created by Wakefield & Associates ; I believe this because I receive invoices from hospital and they look nothing like those. I can not comment on hospital invoices as I never received one. These invoices had amounts throughout XXXX that do not correlate to any visits with hospital or hospital. I replied via certified letter on XX/XX/XXXX that this debt is not mine and how I came to this conclusion. I also requested that if they still believe the debt to be mine to provide tangible proof that would make me believe it.\n\nEnclosed is the following documentation supporting my complaint ; my credit report ( redacted ) with the mistakes I want to be fixed enclosed in red boxes, proof of my insurance status via my Medical Member ID card, medical claims exported from my XXXX XXXX accounts page dating back to XX/XX/XXXX, scanned copies of the collection letters, scanned copy of the validation letter, copies of my request for validation letters, copy of my reply to the validation letter, and discharge documentation from a hospital ( redacted ).\n\nBased on my out-of-pocket max alone, it would not be possible to owe what they believe I owe.

Over the years I have used it now and then always paying payments on time.\nI moved to XXXX approx. 4 years ago. I had some accounts needing to be transferred to Wells Fargo. My personal banker pointed out the Line of Credit I had with a XXXX balance at that time and advised me to never let the account close. That Wells Fargo will never offer anything like them again.\nIn XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from Wells Fargo stating in order to keep this LOC open I would need to keep a minimum of {$1400.00} in account. I Spoke to my banker. He could not advise me but stressed I would never have a LOC like this again. So I transferred the {$1400.00} from the LOC and paid interest on this amount from that point on.\nIn XXXX of XXXX I had been unemployed for all most 3 years. My family of XXXX, myself and XXXX XXXX could no longer keep up with all their commitments and we had to have another vehicle. I used this LOC and took out {$13000.00} with the goal of having this paid off within 6 months.\nXX/XX/XXXX I received notification that Wells Fargo was closing this account and the loan needed to be paid off in full by XX/XX/XXXX.\nUnemployed with no way to pay this back I was forced to sell a small inheritance from my grandfather that consisted of oil mineral rights. Because I needed the funds immediately I was unable to take the time to negotiate a price I felt they were worth and settled for what I could get at that moment. In addition I had to sell them all which was more money than the loan, but the company would not buy them from me unless I sold them all. In doing this I not only lost an inheritance that should have been passed down to my children but also lost the monthly income I had been receiving on these shares since the date in which I inherited them.\nAt this point I viewed this as just something I had to do and sadly tried to forget the whole thing yet knowing losing this line of credit would effect my credit score poorly.\n\nBut then on XX/XX/XXXX I receive a letter from Wells Fargo stating they had changed their minds and my LOC would stay open with the same terms as before. It took a few minutes for it to sink in that their initial notification forcing me to sell the mineral rights and lose my income was not being enforced and although I had my LOC back there was no way this could make up for my having to sell this inheritance that I clearly could in no way get back. The income was gone when it didn't have to be and the mineral rights that should have been left to my children were gone forever.\n\nI believe Wells Fargo was advised to keep these LOC 's open only after all the Press and complaints from customers that they would close their accounts and take their money elsewhere became an issue.\nIn addition I can only imagine the amount of cash Wells Fargo brought in from all the customers like myself who followed their instructions to pay off their LOC 's and did. Including now leaving these accounts open giving Wells Fargo the opportunity to make even more money off its customers with now empty LOC 's to run up again.\n\nI imagine I am not the only one who was forced to go to great lengths to pay off these line of credits. I believe Wells Fargo did this all in bad faith and owes me some kind of restitution after choosing to leave these accounts open.\n\nI filed a formal complaint with Wells Fargo on XXXX. I then received a letter asking for 10 days to come up with a solution. On XXXX I received a letter stating that they acknowledged my concerns and appreciated the chance to respond. Then the remaining letter was nothing more than telling me the LOC is still open for me to use, that they appreciate my business and apologize for any confusion that all this may have cause. That was it! The person who wrote this letter included her number for me to call her back if I had any other questions or concerns.

Consequently, I believe this to be the primary reason for the unlawful and predatory treatment that I have received from these companies. I am and have been illegally garnished by Navient Post Claims Assistance ; they have attacked me and my wages, using criminal, intimidating and unethical tactics, they are supposed to be one of the governments guardian companies, a gateway to building a better life ; but instead this company is using illegal means, to keep my student loans in default. I have tried many times to get out of default, but Navient keeps finding new and innovative ways to stop me from attaining this goal every time. Navient has used numerous means of keeping me out of the government aided programs that have been placed for poverty level citizens, like me. I think that you should know that I work for a non-profit company, and I have been employed by them for the last seven years ; this means that I qualify for student loan forgiveness. I work to better our community.\n\nIn the XX/XX/XXXXI received about 8,000 dollars in unsubsidized student loans ; I was slightly above the level of poverty needed to get subsidized loans or grants for college. Over the years I have been in numerous programs to pay back my student loans, but they are always too expensive : I have XXXX kids to support! I have been in and out of garnishment since XX/XX/XXXX, the original garnishment was for 15 % of my pay ; Im now paying about 33 % of my pay in garnishment, plus family insurance, and taxes : I cant survive, and these companies knowingly keep dealing the punishment. I have been exceedingly and unlawfully bullied by this company and its affiliates, for far too long ; they have used unethical and illegal ways to continuously inflict punishment on me. These companies have pursued me unrelentlessly, which has consequently caused me a lot of public persecution and mental anguish. I have nightmares worrying about what they will do to me next, what other laws they will break so that they can to inflict more punishment ; this company has punished me in every way that they can find. Criminals continuously find new ways to break the laws, they have to stay ahead of the authorities to avoid jail, thats how they stay in business ; deceitfulness is the key. There are millions of Americans that get away with never having to pay back student loans, why do they consistently pursue me? I borrowed XXXX XXXX dollars, more than twenty-five years ago. They are charging me more than forty thousand dollars, counting the interest that they have added on ; with all the payments ( through the years ) that I have made toward rectifying this account ; they arent taking anything off of the principle, I am paying for all the people that have let slip through their hands. I will never get out of their debt ; I am paying on a bill that will never get paid off. I feel like I am being pimped, I go to work and they get paid for the work that I do. Its like they own me, every time I get paid, they get paid. I cant make a dollar, without these companies getting some of it! I think its modern day slavery, oh thats right ; slavery was abolished ; wasnt it? It doesnt feel like it, I have chains around my neck, hands, and ankles ; I truly understand what it feels like to be owned.\n\nI have entered and been kicked out of the once in a lifetime program for student loan rehabilitation, twice ( Ha! Ha! Ha! ) And recently they offered it to me again, to me that am the same as admitting guilt. Every time that I get close to finishing it, there company makes up new ways of kicking me out of the program which was designed to help me get out of default. Default for lower income citizen means no credit, no loans, and garnishment on top of that, which means no spare money, its not fair. I work hard for what little money that I make. Navient keeps finding new ways to impose newer and harsher punishment, they are standing on my neck, how I can get up with that type of weight on me ; they are a corporation of bullies. Not anymore, its time I stand up to my bullies! Bullying can only be done behind the scenes ; when a bully is exposed, it takes away their power ; well, if no one else is brave enough to shine a light on them, than I am. In America, Navient is one of this nations biggest and cruelest corporations, of our history ; that's why this company and Sallie Mae have so many class action suits against them. I put this statement in the letter, so that you would know that Im not in a line by myself. I enrolled in one of the newer rehabilitation programs, which was set by our United States Government, to help people get out from under disabling companies, like these Sallie Mae and Navient are the two biggest student loan companies in America. To enter this program you had to be of low or inadequate income, to meet the eligibility requirements ; I meet the required income level to participate in this program. The program stated that if you made ten months, consecutively ; of five dollar a month payments, you would be eligible to get your student loans out of default. I accepted the terms and signed up to enter the program. After the first five payments of five dollars a month, your garnishment would be lifted, and then you would be able to enter another part of the program that allows you to rehabilitate the student loans, at an affordable rate. In this part of the program you would no longer be in default, and you would actually be paying off the student loans. I was quoted about forty-five dollars a month for ten years, in that part, but there branches cant touch you until you are declared out of default. I want to pay off my student loans, the government finally made it possible for a person ( such as myself ), to be able to afford to pay them off, and not have to live in a cardboard box on the streets, to do so.\n\nUnfortunately, there is an oversized bully blocking my path to rehabilitation, this company wants to be a part of the problem ; they dont want to be a part of the solution, they are enablers. I want to be in good standings with my student loans and the government, I want the American dream which is to have good credit, so that you can do anything that you can afford, and have the things you want. Naviant is stopping me from attaining my dream : I didnt break any laws, this has happened because I sought higher education. This company is getting very rich punishing people, American citizens, with a microscopic lens on the XXXX XXXX borrowers. If I had known what problems these loans were going to cause, I would have never applied for them, higher education would have had to happen another way, which is the way that most Americans operate today, under educated, and self-taught people ; that wont take out student loans because they dont want to become enslaved to the banking industry. These three companies have targeted many of its XXXX consumers, they havent moved into the twentieth century, yet. XXXX people should have equal rights ; statistically, the banking industry imposes stiffer penalties and higher interest rates on its XXXX consumer : Navient, Sallie Mae, and XXXX XXXX each have reputations for these types of practices. The student loans that are given out to XXXX students, statistically, have much higher interest rates than that of Caucasian students. Why? There is no logical explanation for this type of treatment today ; the constitution says, That all men are created equal. XXXX XXXX consumers have the right to an education, of equal cost, and the opportunity to be educated wherever you can afford to attend. We fought long and hard to get these rights, lots of lives have been lost, so that, I would have these rights : Society has accepted this, why cant they? I thought this country was passed the old Jim Crow laws ; this is another angle towards slavery, if you never get out of debt, you cant be free of the burden. Maybe these companies didnt get the memo ; slavery is over people, let it go!\n\nNavient started garnishment of my pay in XX/XX/XXXX, I called them to find out how I could stop the garnishment, and they quickly passed me on to XXXX XXXX. I called and spoke with a representative of the XXXX XXXX collections team XX/XX/XXXX, they were the ones in charge of collection of the garnishment. I made my first XXXX dollar payment on XX/XX/XXXX, and my second XXXX dollar payment on XX/XX/XXXX ; I had to make two XXXX dollar payments in order to start the process of setting me up on a plan, so that I could start the rehabilitation process. These were the first payments, I thought that I was on my way to a bettering my situation and my life. The woman I had spoken with at XXXX XXXX, told me to get a XXXX dollar pre-paid XXXX card and have all the payments come off of that automatically ( she said this was what all of her other clients did ). I went out and got the card as soon as I got paid, and I made my first XXXX dollar payment on the account. Unfortunately, I had been misinformed she misquoted some of the schematics of the program during our conversation ; I was mislead which caused confusion. She told me after the first five payments I would be taken out of garnishment, and that they would contact me ( via US mail ), to let me know what the next steps in the process of the program would be. Our conversation mislead me, it also got me kicked out of their program : I complained, I told them to listen to our conversation ( it was a recorded call ) so they would hear where I had been misinformed by their representative. They agreed I was told that the conversation was miss leading, so the company allowed me to start the once in a lifetime program, again. I was supposed to make ten consecutive payments to complete their part of the program, but she had told me to get a XXXX dollar card, which only covered the first five months of the program, it wasnt enough to cover the whole program. I waited for them to contact me, but they never did : I soon found out why, the garnishment started all over again. Navient let me back in the program again, but I had to start it all over. Ground zero, a new garnishment, the start of the program ( at the beginning ), all over again ; it was unethical, but I was happy they gave me another opportunity, a second chance to do this program over.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX I made my first payment, and the second on XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX dollars. I was determined not to let this sinerial happen to me again. I bought an XXXX dollar pre-paid XXXX ( non-reloadable ). I made sure, I had more than enough money to cover the cost for this program ; I knew that what Navient had done the first time was illegal, and I was determined not to give them the opportunity to do that to me again. I set the payments up to be automatically deducted ( as I had done previously ) ; there was exceedingly more money on the card, I only needed to cover the cost of the ten monthly payments of XXXX dollars a month, I wanted to make sure that I would not have any problem making these payments. I kept making payments and getting garnished, I was quickly approaching month five, thats when the garnishment would be lifted. I was told to call Navient on XX/XX/XXXX, to make sure they would stop the garnishment. I made the call, but they didnt stop the garnishment as they were supposed to. This company continued to garnish me more than {$990.00} to much ; this is how much the refund check they sent me was for, I was overcharged. I was a happy camper I had a refund from the company that has been taking most of my earnings and garnishment stopped, yeah!\n\nWhat happened from here was like a scene out of some kind of espionage/ spy movie ; I couldnt have written this. I did everything that I was supposed to ; my payments were being made on the XXXX of every month, as they were supposed to be : I was on time and on track to finish ; I was almost out of default. I had four payments of XXXX dollar left. In the beginning of XX/XX/XXXX, I called Navient to make sure that everything was going according to plan ( I was compliant, I dotted my Is and crossed my Ts ) : I talked to XXXX a customer service agent ; he assured me that I was on track, I was set to have another automatic payment getting ready to come off of the XXXX on the XX/XX/XXXX. The XX/XX/XXXXpayment came off of the card, as it was supposed to, on XX/XX/XXXX. I called XXXX XXXX in the beginning of XX/XX/XXXX to make sure that I was on track ( I didnt want them finding any issues ). They dont send receipts, this company doesnt let you know anything, you have no idea what was going on with your payments, or your account ; except for the garnishments, they consistently took the garnishments : They dont have to answer to anyone, they are above the law ; at least this is the way they act. The representative told me, I was on track everything was going good ; In the beginning of XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX XXXX again, I wanted to make sure that I would have another payment coming out on XX/XX/XXXX ( automatically ), just relax sir ; you are on track to finish. On XX/XX/XXXX Navient pulled my account from XXXX XXXX, there was no notification ; I didnt know it had happened. It was an intentional ploy to put me back in garnishment, an illegal technique that worked. There lawyers filed for the garnishment to start again, before I even found out that my automatic payment had been missed. You can tell this company has done this to other people, the crime was premeditated. During slavery days the master cut off the foot of the resistant slaves ; this was to keep them from running away, I think this was their intention. I will never be free master is keeping me chained up.\n\nNavient supposedly fired XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), and XXXX XXXX XXXX took over my account on XX/XX/XXXX. I didnt know that my account had been switched to another company ; by law XXXX cant continue take my automatic payment, and they cant give my card information to XXXX ( which I bet is an affiliate company ), I didnt know that either. Navient blatantly played with the law, and because of this I was kicked out of the program again. There was no way that they could notify me by mail in the time necessary, so that I could change my account ( XXXX- automatic payments ) from one debt collector to the other in the time necessary to make that XX/XX/XXXX payment. I was sabotaged, this company boldly manipulated my rights, and the laws of the land : Navient also tried to make me look like the guilty party, and it worked, my garnishment started over again. I operate by the laws of this United States, why shouldnt they? I have included a copy of the Non-reloadable XXXX that was on file with XXXX XXXX you will see that it still has a {$44.00} balance on it. There was no reason for me to miss that payment, or any of the other payments necessary to finish this program. When I called to find out what had happened there representatives were super mean to me, almost indignant, very, very unprofessional, disrespectful, and degrading. This was an intentional and fraudulent action, and I am the victim of the crime committed. I want restitution, I want a resolution, and I want my money back! I want to be done with this company and the persecuting and unethical ways they do business. I would love to be able to deal with an honest company that operates within the laws of the land : I do! Im not trying to run from my debt, Im just tired of dealing with a governmental loan shark. This company and its affiliates have imprisoned me, life without parole! If I dont say anything, theyll garnish me until the whole loan is paid off : Oh thats right I am only paying on the interest, I will never get to the principal. They have no right to the money that they are taking from me ; they committed fraud to get it, in fact, offering the opportunity for me to do the program again is an admission of guilt. During this process, I had conversations with the representative of their companies ; the conversations were recorded, I had to talk to two and sometimes three people. I have the records of these calls ; the names, times, representatives, and dates of all conversations. Please notify me if you need any of this information, I am willing to be a part and or active participant in this investigation. I say investigation, because laws of this land say, that if you are the victim of a crime, you have a right for that crime to be investigated, I want an investigation. They started garnishing me again ; I called Navient to find out what was going on. I was informed that I had missed a payment. The way that they changed companies, all of a sudden, it was an intentional act. I am paying for their indiscretions ; I complained ( research ticket # XXXX ). I talked to XXXX, Escalations team representative on XX/XX/XXXX she was very nice ( I had dealt with her on the first ticket ), but her boss was very nasty and argumentative, it was XXXX manager, she wouldnt give me her name. These representatives felt as though a call from a new collections company, that I had no idea was involved in this process, was all the notification that I needed.\n\nNavient kept the garnishment in place ; I am garnished about {$340.00} dollars every two weeks. I have been garnished unfairly for the last year XX/XX/XXXX to the current date XX/XX/XXXX. I could understand this punishment, if I had not been compliant, but I was. I followed the plan exactly ; I did what I was supposed too! It was a predatory act ; I have more than paid this company what I owe them. They arent even taking any of the money that is being taken from me, off of the principle of this loan ; I have already paid back more than I borrowed its as though I am paying nothing, what a nightmare! I am a firm believer, that crime doesnt pay ; but after what this company has done to me and allot of other American consumers, its truly hard to keep believing this. This company has a tremendous amount of class action suits against it ; I wonder how many of them are because of ethnicity, I bet more than half statistically. I truly believe if I wasnt XXXX XXXX XXXX that they wouldnt have taken the same approach with my account that they have taken. It is my firm belief that I have been discriminated against based on my race ( color ). I am a XXXX XXXX, and very proud of it, I have endured the racism and bigotry of this country throughout my life, some of that will always be there. I am immune to most of it, history has harden me, but what these companies have done ( Sally Mae included ), has bought our past ; very blatantly to our present! I feel like they are treating me, as master would treat a smart XXXX XXXX, they took me out to the shed and gave me a good beating. Please check the statistics, I guarantee many other XXXX consumers have claims against them, very similar to the reasons that I have given, just like mines. These people have endured the same journey that I am enduring ; Im sure that I am just one person, in long line of people with skin just like mine.\n\nXXXX XXXX and Navient have used the ambulance chasing lawyers and unethical collections officers that they employ ; to create very specific gray areas in between the XXXX and white writings of the laws of our land. They have done this to commit very calculated, illegal and predatory crimes ; I am one of the victims of these crimes. I was unlawfully kick out of a payment program that I would have successfully finished ( I didnt fail to make the payment on time ; they changed the company that I had to make the payment too ). I had three more automatic payments to make, I had already made six consecutive ( on time ) payments of XXXX dollars a month ; this is the criteria for the program. The new collections company, referred me to Navient, which referred me to XXXX XXXX ; we were trying to get to the bottom of the new garnishment. Once I explained to them that I was set up on automatic payments, plus I still had the card to prove that I was being honest : I still have the non-reloadable Pre Paid XXXX, this card still has about forty-four dollars left on it. XXXX representative told me that Navient would probably just let me finish out the program, without punishment, after I explained the details of the crime that they had committed ( check the recorded conversation ). I called and tried to explain the situation to the Navient representatives, they didnt agree ; their representatives took a very hard and unprofessional stance during the conversation we were having. I have been garnished for the last year ; more than six thousand and five hundred dollars, wrongfully : and over ten thousand dollars, over the last three years. I have paid more than I ever borrowed, this last year was an evil attempt at no good ; the money was illegally, and wrongfully taken from me. I want my money back, I deserve my money back ( especially the XXXX XXXX from the last year ), I am asking for my money back! These companies blatantly broke and rewrote the laws to put more money in their pockets. Its not fair ; I have suffered for their self righteous ways, they are not doing right by the American public. I dont know how many people that they have done this too and gotten away with it ; but I pray that you wont let them get away with it. I hope not to be one of the people that have let this company get away with it again! I am a hard working, honest man, I live by the saying : An honest days pay, for an honest days work. These companies are taking my hard earned money ; they used sneaky, replicated, and rotten techniques to do it. Its robbery, they are robbing me every payday! Whether its done with a gun, or a pen ; robbery is robbery, and thats illegal, its against the law. Please help me fight for my rights ; no one should have to endure the punishment that I have from this company. I have had to sacrifice a lot, I have lost a lot.

FEDLOAN Account Number:XXXX Please correct this inaccurate information on my credit report. I recently pulled my credit report from your Bureau and my attorneys and I had a chance to go over my credit report and in amazement, that you have decided to report me 90 days late on this account in XX/XX/XXXX and 120 days late in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX as well as 150 days late in XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nI immediately disputed this information with FEDLOAN and the results of the investigation came back \" verified ''. Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously \" verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of \" records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. ( 6 ) Failure to transmit the statement required under section 1637 ( b ) of this title to the last address of the obligor which has been disclosed to the creditor, unless that address was furnished less than twenty days before the end of the billing cycle for which the statement is required. ( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the Bureau. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts. ( b ) Reports by creditor on delinquent amounts in dispute ; notification of obligor of parties notified of delinquency If a creditor receives a further written notice from an obligor that an amount is still in dispute within the time allowed for payment under subsection ( a ) of this section, a creditor may not report to any third party that the amount of the obligor is delinquent because the obligor has failed to pay an amount which he has indicated under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, unless the creditor also reports that the amount is in dispute and, at the same time, notifies the obligor of the name and address of each party to whom the creditor is reporting information concerning the delinquency. ( c ) Reports by creditor of subsequent resolution of delinquent amounts A creditor shall report any subsequent resolution of any delinquencies reported pursuant to subsection ( b ) to the parties to whom such delinquencies were initially reported. 1666b. Timing of payments ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Because I take my credit very seriously, I contacted every name and account that was listed on the report. I was again very shocked by the multiple names, account numbers and figures. Included with this letter, is every letter written to those who have hampered my ability to obtain credit. I believe that any judge that looks over the report would agree that it is a violation of both the FCRA, CCPA and FACTA. The following accounts were listed on your report and I have demanded from them a full accounting and five years worth of records to see if their accounts were in violation of the FAIR CREDIT BILLING ACT ( FCBA ). We also demanded signed contracts, agreements or any legal paperwork that would tie us to the following accounts. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct an investigation on this account if I request it. I DEMAND to see all 100 % verifiable proof that I was indeed Verifiably late on these accounts and the creditor fulfilled its obligations under ( FCBA 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) ), As I was never notified of a billing delinquency on my accounts, which the creditor must do under section ( FCBA1666 ( b ) ( 6 ). I DEMAND to see proof that I was mailed my statement to the correct address notifying me of both payment due date and delinquency of payment on the account. If you can not provide 100 % Verifiable proof and proper documentation that the CREDITOR fulfilled its obligations under the ( FCBA ) and ( FCRA ), I therefore demand these late payments be removed from my account or I will be forced to be in contact with the Attorney General of my State and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I therefore am submitting my written request to you to conduct an investigation. Per the FCRA, you have 30 days to conduct this investigation and respond to my request. If you do not respond within this time period, per the FCRA, you must remove this negative information.

On this date I specifically and expressly opted-out of automatically renewing membership charges by expressing this to the Costco clerk and providing alternative payment. I received assurance that no charges would be posted on the account for membership fees. I obtained this card as an emergency line of credit due to a personal injury, and never used it. Additionally, during this time, I continued to receive promotional material from Costco and Citibank, which was typically unwanted and discarded.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, without my knowledge or consent, and in violation of our agreement, Costco charged me {$120.00} for membership. Because of my status as a XXXX XXXX and Citibank and Costco 's practice of sending useless and unsolicited promotional materials, I stopped opening mail from them sometime before this unauthorized transaction.\n\nEventually, this unauthorized charge accumulated interest and late fees. At this point, Citibank apparently attempted to contact me via a phone number that is identified by XXXX or XXXX as originating from a spam number. The number left voicemails in the form via an automated system that uses a robotic voice and is commonly associated with scammers. Citi began sending billing statements that in no way indicated any importance or difference from promotional materials.\n\nIn XX/XX/XXXX, Citi began calling from a different phone number that was not identified as spam - again using a robotic voice. When I spoke with their representative, I discovered that they were attempting to collect payment on the unauthorized transaction and fees and interest on that transaction. I requested that they send me copies of my billing statement.\n\nAfter receiving the copies and verifying that they were real, I called Costco to have the unauthorized charge removed on XX/XX/XXXX. The representative indicated that the unauthorized charge was removed and directed my call to Citibank to dispute the fees and interest. Upon talking with a Citibank representative, she informed me that the charges were \" too old '' to remove over the phone, and that I would have to write a letter to a PO Box controlled by their disputes department in order to have the charges removed. I wrote the letter according to the instructions I was given and waited.\n\nI received no response to this letter from Citibank. Figuring they had long turnaround times, I continued to wait. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, a real person from Citibank called me for the first time. They informed me that I would be required to pay the full amount of the initial unauthorized charge plus interest and fees, totaling {$340.00}. I began calling their billing disputes department, which automatically disconnects your call after 2-3 minutes of waiting. After several failed attempts, I called customer service and demanded to speak to a billing disputes representative. Puzzlingly, they were in possession of the letter I was instructed to write, but had chosen not to provide a response.\n\nThe representative informed me that the representative I spoke to on XX/XX/XXXX was actually incorrect, and that the charges were never eligible to be removed by their disputes process - not just interest and fees, but also the initial unauthorized transaction processed by Costco. In the time between these calls, Citibank attempted to add several more interest charges and late fees, while I expected that my dispute was following some formal procedure for processing. The manager of the disputes department that I spoke to indicated that the charges could never be removed on XX/XX/XXXX in the first place, however he simultaneously offered to remove charges that accumulated after XX/XX/XXXX. The manager stated that the actual purpose of my letter was to create a formal record of the fact that Citibank was not required to remove the charges ; however, I was never informed about this. Citibank is sending a 'corrected ' bill that rewinds back to XX/XX/XXXX, and is still likely to exceed {$250.00} for a transaction that was never authorized.\n\nOverall, Citibank is attempting to collect the full amount of this unauthorized charge veiled behind a non-transparent billing and collection process. The problem was further exacerbated by Citibank 's provision of inaccurate or outright false information about disputing charges. Citibank is using a complex web of bureaucracy to obscure the billing dispute process, leading to significant consumer harm in what amounts to strong-arm tactics. Citibank obscured their collection attempts for a duration long enough that I could not ever dispute the charges despite their unauthorized nature.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "card", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"purchase_on_statement": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "fees_or_interest": "Fees or interest", "getting_a_card": "Getting a credit card", "making_payments": "Problem when making payments", "closing_the_account": "Closing your account"}, "label": "purchase_on_statement", "src": "cfpb_issue_card"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3780911", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/8741ff09f2009bd9c5c0", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4676, "company": "CITIBANK, N.A.", "date_received": "2020-08-05", "product_raw": "Credit card or prepaid card", "issue_raw": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "sub_issue_raw": "Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement", "text_sha256": "8741ff09f2009bd9c5c0460522d00da5bc9840555d9b41424673dea3eb7d869a", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I recently paid my mortgage company the amount they said I owed in arrearages to stop a foreclosure sale.

If my principle balance is at XXXX then I am not a risk to them, I should not be charged lender placed insurance. I was totally paid off until in XX/XX/XXXXthey placed lender placed insurance and then when i called them they told me not to make any payments until they worked on a resolution, I have been waiting for that resolution since XX/XX/XXXX and its now XX/XX/XXXX.They are trying to place another policy effective XX/XX/XXXX. When I am at a XX/XX/XXXX balance on my principle. I can not get anyone to insure my home because of the Hurricane Irma Damaging my roof. The damage is not was not large enough for Fema to cover, but bad enough for no one to want to cover me. I didnt want to make a claim against the insurance because, I have never made a claim on my home and I was going to try to take care of this. But because they continue to place the lender placed its making the balance of insurance fees that I owe larger and larger, not allowing me to receive the title to my home. I need your Influence to go to bat for me. What the bank Wells Fargo is doing to me after I paid off my principal is totally unfair. They are mis-handling my account in 5 different ways.\n\n1. They are placing lender-placed insurance after my principal was already paid off. If I am at XXXX principle, I pose no risk to them. ( Please see Exhibit C- letters from them stating they are continuing to put this on ) 2. The second thing they are doing incorrectly is after I've been with the deceased department for over 10 years when I finally paid the principal balance off ... they are now switching my account to a new Department ( please see Exhibit D ) and this department is changing the whole rules of the game therefore what I was told and promised by the old apartment is void compared to the new Department. Just to elaborate the old apartment told me to fax them a letter stating that since I paid my principal balance off I could have these fees removed and I did and they remove the fees now the new Department put the fees right back on. When I'm trying to pay this off. Furthermore that new department has me waiting over 4 months for an answer and they also after the old Department said that my principal balance was XXXX the new Department is saying that I owe a XX/XX/XXXX payment.\n\n3. The third thing they're doing incorrectly it's sending me letters telling me that I'm going into foreclosure telling me that they're placing lender-placed Insurance again which I don't understand because my principal balance is paid!!! These letters make me lose sleep. And they placed it in XX/XX/XXXX after I paid off my principle and they plan on placing it again in XX/XX/XXXX.\n\n4. The fourth thing is I've totally lost trust in this bank because about five years ago they were purposely losing my payments I would walk into a Wells Fargo and make a payment and XXXX hope that I kept my receipt because if I didn't they would say I didn't make my payments. About 5 years ago I requested help from Congress and they assisted me and they audited them and they changed their tune real quickly and found all my payments. The fact that they lost by payments when I was so close to being paid off made me think that they were purposely trying to take my house and foreclose on me.\n\n5. The fifth thing that they're doing incorrectly is they have their representative XXXX XXXX whose phone number is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX extension XXXX XXXX XXXX this person has had me waiting for resolution for over 3 months. He called me yesterday only to say that they are continuing to place Lender placed insurance and he still has no resolution that the anticipated resolution date was XX/XX/XXXX. ( Mind you I put my formal complaint with him Since XX/XX/XXXX ) Since then, I've called him every other Monday and what he tells me is he'll give me an answer in 10 days that they're waiting to drop the paperwork. He has told me this over four times/ for 3 months ... I believe that's a bit much. He told me not to make any payments until they come up with a solution. But they have dragged it out 3 months.\n\nI can't even sleep at night thinking that these guys are going to pull some kind of scheme and try to foreclose on me for fees I don't understand why they continue to put lender-placed insurance I don't understand why they moved my account to another department after I've been with the deceased department for 10 years now this new Department doesn't know that I dropped {$7000.00} at one time they don't know my payment history they're just trying to collect and these fees but their fees they're not principle. So as a company Wells Fargo I know they're huge but the deceased department has helped me and telling me one thing and then they the new Department is changing the rules as if it were a new ball game, when I'm clearly at the end. The deceased Department told me : that I could pay off my principle balance and any fees once I paid off my principal balance those fees I could pay off at my own terms ... once paid off I can receive the paperwork. Furthermore the deceased Department invited me to fax them over a request to take off these fees and I did, I dont have that paperwork but it was faxed in XX/XX/XXXX to the insurance department and they took off the fees! yet the new department put them back on.\n\nYet this new Department put the fees right back on. They often send me letters that they're placing new lender-placed insurance. They just sent one on XX/XX/XXXX when in actuality they already placed lender-placed Insurance in XX/XX/XXXX but they can't because I paid off my principal in XX/XX/XXXX. I can't even sleep at night I stay up worrying about being so close to pay my house off and these people pulling a fast one on a normal citizen like me. To the old department I'm totally paid off on principal and they took off fees the new Department said that I still owe one more payment and they put on a whole new set of lender-placed insurance on me..My concern is that I was totally paid off in XX/XX/XXXX and I have the receipt that says XXXX balance ( attached to this email ) on the principle but they transferred my account to this new department they said I still owe one more payment in XX/XX/XXXX ( where that came from count be explained ) they're incorrect they keep making me wait ... I've been waiting for 4 months, for a resolution ... I've been waiting for an answer on this and every time I call which I call every other week on a Monday they tell me they don't have an answer, but they will in 10 days and it's been since XX/XX/XXXXthat I've been calling and now we're going into XX/XX/XXXX so what are they trying to do they said I only order payment for XX/XX/XXXX but I don't want to think that they're making me try to go to foreclosure for fees I don't trust this bank I need XXXX XXXX strength I need your help. I know that her influence will get their attention and get them to do what they should be doing. They've been having me hanging on for 4 months without an answer and it's not fair I need her to intervene but I need to fully explain to her while my case is relevant.\n\nAttached you will find.\n\nExhibit A letter from Wells Fargo ... that proves my principle balance is paid off. As of XX/XX/XXXX and then it also shows the small fees for about XXXX Exhibit B Attached you also find a letter where they are stating that they can help if I'm going into foreclosure ... that's the letter that makes me not get sleep. How can I go to forclosure when i was told by the deceased department that if I paid off the principal, I could pay off the fees on my own terms.\n\nExhibit C in the last attachment you'll find a letter where they're telling me on XX/XX/XXXX that they're placing lender-placed insurance I don't understand how when I made my last payment in XX/XX/XXXXon principal and my bill / ( Exhibit A ) reflex that I was totally paid off on principal.\n\nExhibit D And the final attachment is the letter that says they're changing my account from one Department to a new department they even change my account number they changed everything this far the ball game.\n\nI feel that Wells Fargo has totally mismanaged this account I feel that since they're so big they have different departments executed to try to get their money 's however if you're in the deceased department and they tell you one thing it's still Wells Fargo they can't just change the game on you when you've almost won the game they can't change the rules at the end I need your help because this is my family 's future this is my patrimony this is the home that I paid off that my mother when she passed away left to me and this will be my children 's home and my grandchildren please help me!!!

Each month I paid a consolidator {$700.00} and they distributed it to my creditors each month. The program has been ongoing since XXXX 2013 until present. One of the creditors was Capital One ( account number ending in XXXX ). During that time period My credit reports show XXXX payments 30 or more days past due for this account while there is no problem with the other credit accounts. The due date for the Capital One account is the XXXX of each month. I obtained electronic records from my credit management company showing that each month funds were always transferred to Capital One electronically within 30 days of the due date. In XXXX cases a double payment was made the following month when a payment was missed, but in these cases the double payment was still within 30 days of the due date the month before and so no payments were 30 or more days past due. I discussed with Capital One representatives 4 times by phone and they refused to fix it. I sent them the electronic records ( attached ), but they still refused to do anything even with the undisputable evidence. I do not think they have anything to gain from this. They are just too lazy to make any effort to fix their mistake. I think this is all electronic and it is not easy to fix and so they just ignore me. This account corresponds to 80 % of my late payments in this period and I have been denied credit due to these incorrect records. My position is that as a reporter of credit information to the bureas the law requires them to correct information when they have clear evidence it is incorrect. By not honoring their obligations as a credit information reporter they are causing financial damage to me.

The agency has engaged in practices that directly contravene the regulations set forth by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and other relevant statutes.\n\n1. Midland Cred Collection Agency has failed to provide validation information as required by 12 CFR 1006.34 ( b ) ( 5 ), yet they have proceeded to place a collection account on my consumer report. This omission denies me the opportunity to verify the accuracy of the debt they claim I owe.\n\n2. I have not been afforded the opportunity to dispute the account in accordance with 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ) ( 4 ) ( I ). This denial of the dispute process deprives me of my right to challenge any inaccuracies or discrepancies regarding the alleged debt.\n\n3. Midland Cred Collection Agency has resorted to false, misleading, and deceptive means in their collection efforts, thereby violating my consumer rights. Such unethical practices undermine the integrity of the debt collection process and cause undue distress to consumers.\n\n4. Furthermore, the agency lacks the authority to furnish any account to consumer reporting agencies without adhering to the necessary disclosures mandated by law. By neglecting to fulfill their obligations under 12 CFR 1006.34 ( d ) and 15 USC 1681-S 2 ( 7 ) ( A ), Midland Cred Collection Agency is flagrantly disregarding consumer protection statutes.\n\nI demand that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate these egregious violations committed by Midland Cred Collection Agency and take appropriate action to rectify the situation. Additionally, I request that the agency cease all collection activities until these matters are fully resolved.\n\nThank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will diligently pursue this complaint and ensure that my rights as a consumer are upheld.\n\nSincerely, [ XXXX XXXX ]", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "debt_collection", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"debt_not_owed": "Attempts to collect debt not owed", "written_notification": "Written notification about debt", "false_statements": "False statements or representation", "communication_tactics": "Communication tactics", "negative_or_legal_action": "Took or threatened to take negative or legal action"}, "label": "written_notification", "src": "cfpb_issue_debt_collection"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/8662653", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/63677f21047a037959fc", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "medium", "chars": 2216, "company": "ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.", "date_received": "2024-03-31", "product_raw": "Debt collection", "issue_raw": "Written notification about debt", "sub_issue_raw": "Didn't receive notice of right to dispute", "text_sha256": "63677f21047a037959fcc09a1cf4973d98095da9498789cdd22b89d4b5779c72", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Dispute to Navient answer ( recent case : XXXX ) since I feel the dispute still have not been properly answered and the reporting CRA is still inaccurate. According to Navient, they stated your student loans are GENERALLY not subject to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) Using the terminology generally, I need to understand does it or does it not? Repeatedly I have to ask Navient to validate ( Fair Debt Collection Practices Act Sec. 1692g. - Validation of debts ) the loans payable to NAVIENT. Since my first inquiry dated XX/XX/XXXX, Required to Validate a DebtAll documents, including electronic records or images, which bear the SIGNATURE of the debtor and which concern the debt being collected ; A ledger, account card, account statement copy, or similar record, whether paper or electronic, which reflects the date and amount of payments, credits, balances, and charges concerning the debt, including but not limited to interest, fees, charges or expenses incidental to the principal obligation which the creditor is expressly authorized to collect by the agreement creating the debt or permitted to collect by law ; Navient replied. By signing the Promissory Notes, you have agreed to pay the principal and valid interest that accrues on the account in full. Navient provided me with XXXX XXXX Promissory Note, however, none of those documents have my SIGNATURE on them. As my follow up response to Navient ( Letter dated XX/XX/XXXX ) I stated that my disputes were not a request for verification but again for \" VALIDATION '' which Navient again failed to provide. I specifically outlined what I have requested as validation again with documentation bearing my SIGNATURE which now Navient has failed to do so three ( 3 ) times in a time frame of sixty ( 60 ) days. As you can see for yourself the attachment Navient provided did not have my signatures on them. Under FDCPA Section 809 ( b ), Navient is not allowed to pursue collection activity until the debt is validated. I again have sent three ( 3 ) request for debt validation my first request, sent within 60 days of receipt of Navients initial contact, has gone unanswered. To refresh your memory on what constitutes legal validation, I am giving a list of the required documentation that I have failed to receive from Navient on all accounts : Complete payment history, the requirement of which has been established via XXXX v XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ; XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX and Agreement that bears the SIGNATURE of the alleged debtor wherein he agreed to pay the original creditor.\nLetter of sale or assignment from the original creditor to Navient. ( Agreement with your client that grants you the authority to collect on this alleged debt. ) ( original complaint case XXXX ) Student loans transferred from one company to the next to the next. I am attempting to Validate loans via Navient as I have attempted to clear this matter since XX/XX/XXXX. It appears that the amount is increasing during each transfer. I am sending this request now because I am disputing the validity of the amount and am requesting validation. Attempt # 1 I sent the first letter dated XX/XX/XXXX To Whom It May Concern : This letter is regarding account # # # # # # # # # # #, which you claim I owe $ $ $ $ $ $ . This is a formal notice that your claim is disputed. I am requesting validation, made pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act, along with the corresponding local state laws. I am requesting validation ; that is competent evidence bearing my signature, showing that I have ( or ever had ) some contractual obligation to Navient. Please also be aware that any negative mark found on my credit reports ( including XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ) from your company-Navient, for a debt that I dont owe, is a violation of the FCRA & FDCPA ; therefore if you can not validate the debt, you must request that all credit reporting agencies delete the entry. In the absence of any such documentation bearing my signature, I formally request that this information is immediately deleted from the credit file filed under my Social Security number. I do not consent to any means of automated verification. Pending the outcome of my investigation of any evidence that you submit, you are instructed to take no action that could be detrimental to any of my credit reports. Failure to respond within 30 days of receipt of this certified letter may result in small claims legal action against your company at my local venue.

Yet again, you have failed to provide me with a copy of any viable evidence, bearing my signature, showing the account is being reported accurately. Be advised that the description of the procedure used to determine the accuracy and completeness of the information is hereby requested.

I am again formally requesting a copy of any documents, bearing my signature, showing that I have a legally binding contractual obligation to pay NAVIENT the alleged amount.

The purpose of this document is to notify you that your claim is disputed and validation is requested. This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above-named Title and Section. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you/Navient. Please provide me with the following : What the money you say I owe is for. Explain and show me how you calculated what you say I owe. Provide me with copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay you/Navient what you say I owe. Please attach a copy of any signed agreement debtor has made or other verifiable proof that debtor has a contractual obligation to pay Navient. Please attach a copy of any agreement that bears the signature of the debtor, wherein he/she agreed to pay Navient. In the absence of any such documentation bearing my signature, I formally request that this information is immediately deleted from the credit file filed under my Social Security number XXXX. I do not consent to any means of automated verification. Now, I will also inform you that if your offices have reported invalidated information to any of the 3 major Credit Bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX or XXXX ) this action might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found on any of my credit reports by your company, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you for the following : Defamation Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( including but not limited to Section 807-8 ) Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( including but not limited to Section 623-b ) Pursuant to my rights under federal debt collection laws, I am requesting that you cease and desist calls to XXXX and XXXX in relation to the alleged account. You are hereby notified that if you do not comply with this request, I will immediately file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and the Georgia Attorney Generals office. Civil and criminal claims will be pursued. If your office provides validation with proper documentation as requested, I will require at least 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must CEASE AND DESIST. Also during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This includes listing any information to a credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalid. If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately. I would also like to request, in writing, that no telephone contact be made by your offices to my home or to my place of employment. Do not call my relatives or my friends. If your offices attempt telephone communication with me, including but not limited to computer generated calls, or calls to third parties, it will be considered harassment and I will have no choice but to file suit. All future communications with me MUST be done in writing and sent to the address noted in this letter through the USPS. It would be advisable that you assure that your records are in order. This is an attempt to correct your records. Any information obtained may be used for that purpose.

I, unfortunately, was diagnosed with several medical issue s ( i ncluding XXXX XXXX ) a nd have had an increasingly difficult time making the loan payments. XXXX apparently bought the loans from XXXX and started calling me several times. When I explained to the customer service representatives that I was unable to make payments, they reassured me that they were sensitive to my circumstance and they suggested I go into loan forbearance as it would not adversely impact me but would give me ample time to repay my loan when my circumstances hopefully improved. After it was agreed to loan forbearance, I noticed a few months later that my principal balance was increasing despite the fact that I was assured the forbearance plan would simply delay my payments until I can pay them. I was not aware that I was being charged interest or fees during this period and that my principal balance would be increasing. The customer service representative made it sound like they were doing me a favor by forbearing the loan given my circumstance. Instead, I learned that they duped me and were instead charging me over {$400.00} per month in additional principal. I was literally duped by XXXX . When I finally realized what was going on ( because I had my son try to help explain the matter ), I reached back out to Navient and spoke to a gentleman named XXXX on XXXX / XXXX / XXXX . He, unfortunately, confirmed that I am being charged these fees that I was unaware of. Unfortunately, I still dont have the ability to make the monthly payments. The company should be fined for misleading me. I would be surprised if they have n't done the same thing to countless other customers. They literally try to take advantage of people like me who have been ill or can not make the payments by encouraging us to go into loan forbearance without properly explaining that we are going to have to pay a huge amount of interest or fees.

We spoke and dealt with XXXX XXXX, branches manager. about doing a wire transfer to XXXX XXXX XXXX. She stated that she has done buissness with them and that they bank with XXXX. We explained that we couldn't reach them and, major part of why we went in person, that we would like her to verify that it was in fact XXXX XXXX and to verify the info, address, phone # that was on the wire instructions to what was on file. She stated that she couldn't provide it to me, i said thats ok i just want you to verify it matches. And according to Federal law with wires over {$10000.00} it is an obligation of hers nontheless. She left to go get it approved, came back and wanted us to verify the routing and account number was entered correctly, if so to sign. it was, we did. she left again, came back and said that it had been approved and gave us a copy. we left. under the assumption she verified and all was good. We later on XX/XX/23 got a call from XXXX XXXX telling us that she would be sending us wire instructions from XXXX XXXX. We said we already got them and completed it, confusedly. She told us to immediately call the bank and to file a fraud claim as her emails were hacked and that email was not from her. So we did. We filed a claim at fraud and wire dept. And told them that we would supply them with names or phone numbers or whatever they needed. They never wanted a single one. They have denied us for the fraud saying that we profitted from it somehow. We have requested the documentation as to how they came to that conclusion and of the investigation and havent recieved anything. As far as the reversal of the wire it is still awaiting a response from the recipients bank, Being Chase Bank, so pretty much they are waiting for a response from themselves. That is the only thing they have done. I myself called the recipients bank Chase bank in XXXX, NY. Talked to the manager about trying to look it up and that he needs to check his messages. His ONLY concern is to how i got his direct phone number. And he told me he couldnt do anything to help me and asked very defensively and paranoid of how i got his direct line and stated he doesn't know what im talking about and cant help and he doesn't have any messages. We found out later that the money went to XXXX XXXX XXXX. and that they have absolutely no relation to XXXX XXXX. And that is one of the things i wanted XXXX to verify and we made that very clear to her. We finally got ahold of XXXX and told her what happened and reminded her that we had verbally told her who we were wiring the money to. XXXX told us all she did was enter the info exactly to what the instructions stated and that was it. And reminded us that we approved it. We reminded her that we can't see what she sees on her computer screen and that we signed because we trusted in good faith that she verified everything that we verbally expressed and everything on the instructions to what she had access to on file. All she said that she could do is try to esculate the claim for reversal. And everytime we call to check status or to exercise our rights, they transfer us to a different department when they can't answer our question or if we question their answer. Around and around in circles and nobody can answer a simple question as to why they are waiting for a response from themselves. The Wire Agreement states the recipients bank, not the recipeints bank branch approval to do a reversal. I believe and know had XXXX XXXX taken the steps to verify like requested and like the Federal requirements mandate her to do for domestic wires over {$10000.00}, that we wouldn't be in this situation and we would've been able to close on our purchase on the XXXX. But now our dream of owning a house is gone and we are financially not able to afford it. I just dont understand why she led us to believe that she has dealt with this company and that she verified it when clearly she did not or we would be in our new home.

I initially filed with the XXXX but they were unable to assist me and they have closed the complaint due to Ally not responding timely.\nIn XX/XX/XXXX I had a total loss from a vehicle accident. I had insurance as well as GAP insurance.\nIn XX/XX/XXXX I received statement requesting a payment of {$460.00} ( this amount was previously my monthly payment ). I was confused as Ally had received payment from both my insurance company XXXX XXXX and my GAP insurance. I tried to look my account up online but they disabled it. I was not able to find it even by searching by the account number. I contacted customer service and he advised me to go online and I told him the account was no longer available to me. He told me well sometimes it takes a minute for them to catch up just wait and everything should be caught up in a month or two.\nI next received statement from Ally dated XX/XX/XXXX with an amount due of {$100.00} but with a due date of XX/XX/XXXX. Underneath that is listed an amount paid of {$4000.00} with a due date of XX/XX/XXXX and scheduled payment {$460.00}. It further has listed in the comments section that {$1600.00} is still due on the vehicle. Yet I owe {$100.00} on XX/XX/XXXX? It appears they are charging my account as an installment account even though they know the vehicle totaled and the payments were made for the pay off amount. I have no idea where they came up with the amount still owed. I am unable to determine from the documents and statements received what the true actual numbers are and how they applied it against the total payoff.\nIn XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I received statements that showed I owed zero amount and on the XXXX statement it has a payment of {$1200.00} being paid but yet it still shows in that comment section the amount of {$1600.00} to pay off vehicle. Then in XXXX I receive a statement again stating I need to pay {$100.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I called Ally he stated he was sending account to be investigated and instead of it being investigated I immediately began receiving collection calls.\nI explained the situation to the collection person. She then indicated that I was 3 or4 payments behind when I just received an email a week prior that I was 2 months behind apparently their time goes much quicker than the rest of the world. I said I did not understand how I could owe so much still towards the vehicle. She advised that I did an extension agreement in XXXX and XXXX of XXXX and I still owed for that. I stated so -when my insurance was provided the payoff amount they did not include the total pay off amount? I said that does not make sense you should send the total pay off amount of the vehicle as that is what was requested.\nAlly did finally respond to me from the XXXX complaint, I received about week late. It did not explain what I asked of them about the statements and the inaccuracies. They send me a letter and an account sheet that shows different information than what was on the GAP pay history. In the letter they also stated that as soon as a vehicle is totaled they immediately disable the account. I find that interesting since every employee I spoke with told me to look at my online account and even an emails I received in XXXX and XXXX advised me to look at or make my payment through my online account the same one they XXXX.\nAlso, they know this was payoff for the vehicle why were they still charging me interest, late charges and applying the payoff amounts they received to principal and interest? The amount that was to be refunded back to the dealership which was around {$1200.00} for the maintenance agreement instead of simply taking out of the amount owed on the vehicle they made it appear like a payment on my account and split that across principal and interest. That should have been taken out of the principal or total owed period. The persons argument that the GAP insurance did not pay about {$1200.00} was because the information that I sent them provided by Ally showed an amount of {$1200.00} being applied as a payment to principal and interest - it did not show the amount as a refund back to the dealer so GAP insurance took the amount owed to the dealership out of the payment owed to Ally.\nFinally, where did that payment amount of {$1200.00} come from that is listed on the invoice? perhaps from GAP once it was realized? But the comments always said I owed over {$1600.00} for the vehicle. Something is definitely wrong with this entire situation. They have affected my credit when I was finally making headway after about five years of diligently working on past debts and ensuring timely payments. Now they have me owing over {$1900.00}. They are treating the account like a monthly payment agreement even though it is a total loss and if in fact I did owe anything I would think they would contact me and try to work out how the rest was be paid.\nThey are costing me money because my car insurance looks at my credit report and I am not able to obtain low interest on anything because whatever they are doing ruined what I have been working towards for over 5 years. Because of this my credit dropped over 30 points when it should have went up after Ally account was shown as paid and no late payments. It is not right, if anything I think I should be owed money due to the confusing billing practices that I do not think are above board and forcing me to lose a lot of hard work I have put into fixing my credit. They are causing me a great deal of stress, lost time to deal with this issue that should not be this difficult.\nI should not owe any money Ally financial. They were paid by my insurance and my GAP insurance. I would like real explanations of the statements I received. As stated in XXXX and XXXX I received statements that showed I owed XXXX amount and then in XXXX I again owed the XXXX. I want to know all payments received, how they were applied, if they were applied correctly and how they came up with the amounts that I owe.

XX/XX/XXXX I purchased a XXXX XXXX HUD property for $ XXXX in the XXXX neighborhood. We tore the property down to the studs and did an extensive rehab. I thought this property would increase in value and help pay for my daughters college tuition 15 years later. In the sub-prime mortgage crisis of XXXX - overnight - I was underwater on the building. The property value plummeted from XXXX to less than a XXXX. From XXXX, every good faith effort I made to sell or refinance the property was rebuffed by Wells Fargo XXXX We attempted a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, short sale and had several cash offers which for a variety of reasons/excuses were denied by Wells Fargo. The property gradually slipped into crushing debt when my tenants stopped paying rent- when I put the property up for sale -and refused to vacate the property. My wife and I were left with few options other than to file a XXXX XXXX to consolidate and pay off all our debts.\nFor a period of five years my wage was garnished $ XXXX. Recently, we made 100 % restitution and paid off all our debts. XXXX For the past 30 months we have been seeking to come to terms with Wells Fargo to close on a short sale or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure on this property. We have presented six contracts that for a variety of reasons we have been unable to get to the table.\nMost recently, we presented a cash offer ( XXXX ) on the Home Path portal in the amount of $ XXXX which was under review. This year, I have spent over $ XXXX to correct building code violations ( replace rear porch, reconvert basement ) because Wells Fargo wont close on a deed-in-lieu with a dirty tittle.\nMonday XX/XX/XXXX, I met XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) at the property to review his work on the basement deconversion. To our surprise, the property was padlocked and my keys no longer worked. I called Wells Fargo and was informed the property had been actively foreclosed on XX/XX/XXXX and all further questions should be referred to your law office.\nFriday XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with XXXX from your firm. I explained that myself, my Realtor and my Attorney had not been notified of an active foreclosure date on the property. In the past, foreclosure sale dates had been postponed pending review of all contracts. She informed me that all communication from your office was being sent to my Attorney, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Il. XXXX ).

XXXX encouraged me to fax documentation that XXXX XXXX XXXX was currently the attorney of record and a copy of the pending contract. She said that she would discuss it with XXXX XXXX 's at her firm and encouraged me to have my Attorney, XXXX XXXX XXXX call the law office directly. I grant permission for XXXX XXXX to speak with attorneys at XXXX XXXX XXXX.\nThese are the numbers that have been provided to me : XXXX XXXX XXXX ( O ) XXXX. ( F ) XXXX Wells Fargo ( O ) XXXX I have enclosed the pending contract and documentation that Wells Fargo authorized XXXX XXXX as the attorney of record. Also, in the past, I have received correspondence from XXXX XXXX XXXX that was sent to my home address. I have spent XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX making improvements on this property since XX/XX/XXXX. Like many other investors, I suffered greatly when the property value plummeted 50 % in XXXX. I have been in constant communication with my home preservation specialist - XXXX XXXX XXXX - from Wells Fargo on a monthly basis. We have cooperated to the best of our ability to provide documentation that would move these transactions forward. I am not sure why no-one from my team was informed ( in writing ) of this active foreclosure date until XX/XX/XXXX. I am desperately trying to avoid the devastating impact a foreclosure will have on my credit report and taxes. What can be done to resurrect this deal and get this cash offer to the table.\nThank you for your help and cooperation with this matter.\n\nOver the past 36 months, I have spoken to countless individuals at Wells Fargo ; everyone has been pleasant but no one has taken ownership to get a deal to the table. Wells Fargo has demanded an insatiable amount of redundant paper work, inspections, appraisals and documentation without results. I am trying to avoid a foreclosure or having to file a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The chronic stress of this process has taken an enormous toll on my finances, marriage and health. I want to move on and close this chapter in my life. Wont you please help me accomplish that goal?\nAn anonymous Wells Fargo employee informed me that my account had been tagged as a \" strategic default ''. Therefore, Wells Fargo had no intention of allowing me to sell the property. Wells Fargo knew that my income was high enough that it was more lucrative to allow the property to slide into foreclosure. Foreclosure allowed Wells Fargo to claw back the entire amount of the property along with interest and attorney 's fees. Wells Fargo was NEVER negotiating with me in good faith. The judgement value was {$190000.00}.\nThis foreclosure was devastating and almost cost me my job, marriage, health and credit. It was mentally, physically and emotionally draining.

I own an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that is my sole source of income and I started this business while I was in XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Once the business started making regular money, I set up a new XXXX, a business checking account and a savings account with Capital One as well as a XXXX business credit card. I later applied for a XXXX loan in XXXX when XXXX had announced a window for small business applicants because I thought my business was a good candidate and I really needed the loan for my business ' survival. ( Application number : XXXX ). I get a call from an investigator named XXXX at Capital One who says he's supposed to help in the process but he then drags my application out for weeks ( and ultimately months ) with no communication and no contact number to get him on the phone for an update. At one point he calls me and tells me that he thinks I'm lying and he doesn't think I have a valid business prior to XX/XX/XXXX. I'm shocked to be called a liar and I tell him that my business underwent a name change between XXXX and XXXX and I sent him multiple invoice documents to show that I had a qualifying business for a XXXX loan and I had just sent the application under the newest business name since that's the name on my bank account. He then did not respond to any of my emails or outreach following me providing clear evidence of my business qualifying. ( I've attached some of those emails and documents in this complaint ). XXXX responses over months of me emailing him, not a single acknowledgment of my supporting follow up documents so my loan application is completely stalled. I set up the business checking account in the first place with my business documents so I don't understand why I'm being treated like I don't have a valid and active business. XXXX was fishing for reasons to deny me the loan and I'm not sure he ever even looked at my documents that I sent over to him proving I have a valid business. He delayed my application process by about XXXX months! So now during the wait, I can't even go to another institution to apply for the loan because I don't want to have XXXX active applications because I don't want to be flagged for fraud. ( I mentioned earlier that I was in XXXX XXXX XXXX because a fraud flag could be an issue in me applying for XXXX XXXX so I wouldn't even take a parking violation risk. ) Well, after the application deadline when the funds are already depleted and I've given up on any hopes of receiving a XXXX loan, XXXX finally gives me an update that he decided to flag my account and deny my application and permanently terminate my banking relationship with Capital One. I'm livid at this point and I file a formal complaint with Capital One for suspected race discrimination ( because XXXX knew what I looked like from my profile picture on my emails to him sending my documents ). I did not receive adequate information about the status of my loan during a period in which I could've gone to another banking institution with my business documents. Later that summer or early Fall, I call Capital One 's credit card division about an issue and they call the business checking team and they tell the agent that my account is closed. That agent gets upset and says that's a mistake and the business checking employee then verifies that they misspoke and there is no issue with the account and that it has not been closed. I continue to use the account from summer of XXXX ( when XXXX initially says he was closing the account ) until XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX when suddenly I notice that I do not have access to my funds to pay my Capital One business credit card. I call thinking there's fraud on the account and I'm told that my account was closed in XXXX of XXXX pending investigation and I can not have any other information nor access my funds. They basically threaten me over the phone by telling me the funds may never be released if the investigator makes a determination not to release my funds and that I won't receive any further information or explanation, nor can I contact the investigator. I ask for the investigator 's name because I have no clue what this is about and to my surprise, it's XXXX. Now I'm extremely distraught because I was told my account was never closed and it was an error and now I'm told that my account has been closed for XXXX years and they don't know why I was even able to use it that whole time. Now I'm accruing interest on a credit card that I can not pay and I have ceased business operations because I have no money. So for XXXX months now, I've been going back and forth with Capital One as they claim XXXX is still \" investigating '' and I can't get any further information. I go to a physical branch and they tell me there's no hold on the account and the funds can be released but they get an error message in trying to get the check sent out. They tell me to call back because they said it would definitely be resolved over the phone. I call and then I'm told it can't be over the phone and I have to just go to the branch with my ID and business documents. I do that and now I'm told once again that my account is \" under investigation '', even though I'd already been told twice now that it was cleared and there was no hold for the close out check. I desperately need help because I'm getting nowhere. I was told today by my local Congresswoman 's office that this treatment of my loan and my account is against the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau guidelines for creditors so now I'm looking for assistance as soon as possible. Last week an \" investigation '' that I never knew about ended on my business savings account ( which had {$0.00} in it ) and it was released but the hold remains on the account that has all my funds in it. This has cost me so much money and I don't have access to the only assets I have. I can't buy groceries, I can't travel to help my brother who just had a XXXX, I can't run ads for business operations to earn more money. I feel so wronged by this whole situation. I never received a dollar in XXXX funds and now years later, I'm having my account shut down and my funds frozen with no clarity from Capital One. This is not right. I go on XXXX and I see other small businesses have experienced similar nightmares with Capital One freezing their assets with no explanation and claiming some XXXX issue but in my case, I never received any federal funding or assistance. Not a XXXX. Even the branch I'm speaking to now is really upset and confused about this situation and suggesting I talk to a lawyer because of how bizarre this all is. My local Congresswoman 's office has agreed to help work with CFPB once I submit this complaint to you guys. This is giving me literal panic attacks. And there have been severe damages caused as a direct result of what I highly suspect is misconduct on Capital One 's part.

PHEAA ( Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency ), the co mpany that assumes responsibility for loan collection, use an array of tactics to ensure that a flow of money continues to be received from me. There is absolutely no regard for modifications to their mission due to mistakes or possible illegal maneuvers on their behalf. For several years, company representatives have not responded to any of my concerns, written or via telephone. Representatives have shown me that they are trained to ask for money, not to respond to questions and concerns. Middle management and beyond dont respond. I have tried for several years to get answers to questions concerning how the alleged debt quoted by the company has taken its present day form. Im talking about a deconstructive breakdown in its totality. PHEAAs framework is about crunching numbers supported by the loan document. Anything outside of that framework has no relevance to them. The numbers they crunch could be fraught with error, and there might well be other circumstances that should have and should be considered, but this has never been the case. They obviously dont believe that a consumer could muster up the courage or energy to take the company to court. I am reaching out to see if a third party oversight agency can burst the bubble that PHEAA lives in. This is for the purpose of receiving full answers, and not pat responses. I have, and I will continue to have important questions and concerns to be brought to PHEAA for full disclosure. 1. I returned to graduate school as a XXXX student. As required at institutions that administer these kinds of loans, a student receives counseling in order to understand the full scope of the loan obligation. The college I attended did not follow this protocol. This was an important omission. The college subsequently lost its accreditation. This was due to several egregious acts, which included financial improprieties. 2. I never defaulted on the student loan obligation. I qualified for a deferment. I also qualified to apply for a loan discharge due to a XXXX . Though I had applied for a deferment, I began to receive harassing phone calls from XXXX representatives pushing me to set up a repayment plan. These calls were received throughout the week. I filed more than one complaint regarding the calls, but they continued. XXXX day I was engaged in a heated conversation with a XXXX representative. He was pushing for me to set up a repayment plan though I had filed for a deferment. At one point during the conversation, the representative told me that he was going to default me. Within weeks after the aforementioned call, I received notice that I had defaulted on the loan. I immediately contacted XXXX and explained that I qualified and had applied for a deferment. I was told that the deferment document submitted to XXXX was never received. At this juncture the focus from XXXX was not the deferment, but to push through the default. I wrote letters and did my very best to challenge their assertion that I defaulted on the loan. If a deferment opportunity or an opportunity to ask for a loan discharge due to XXXX was available, why would I not take it? I later received a notice from XXXX stating that I requested a forbearance of the loan package. This was instantly enacted by XXXX . I submitted paperwork for a deferment. I later requested to have the loan s discharged du e to a XXXX . XXXX set up the 8 month forbearance so that the company could impose an instant repayment plan. There is no document, signed by me, that consented to this. The alleged default of the student loan moved seamlessly to a wage garnishment threat. XXXX being a locked system, I had no choice but to appeal this garnishment. I was told that I could fly to Pennsylvania to appear at a hearing. Those who do this for a living obviously knew that I would not be able to afford such a trip from California. This so called hearing was an insult to any judicial system that attempts to uphold a just and honest system. Firstly, those involved were too close to XXXX to be neutral. Given the distance between us and my inability to hire legal representation, those involved in the hearing were given free rein to exploit my written statements while making it seem that I was given due process. They allowed me to move through the hearing process while knowing fully that my appeal would be rejected. This was disturbing to me at the time and continues to disturb me today. A garnishment was imposed. The garnishment was for a percentage of the net income, though XXXX changed this to a percentage of gross income. XXXX later responded to this by stating that net and gross are the same. XXXX has been allowed to ride roughshod all over my legal rights because the company feels that its wall of disclosure is impenetrable. They have enforced the kinds of interest rates and penalties that will insure that the loan will never be paid in full. I believe there is enough information to warrant an outside and unbiased agency to ask XXXX for a legitimate response to my concerns. I would like to start with the question Why was there a default when I never defaulted on the loan? I know that XXXX set me up. There are a chain of events that support my belief. My loan package was sold several times and finally reached XXXX . XXXX positioned itself to put up its impenetrable wall. This allowed the company representative to tell me that he would default me if I did not set up a repayment plan. This was followed with XXXX assertion that my deferment document was never received, and so a default was warranted. This lead to a garnishment appeal that all parties within that particular system knew I would not win. This concluded with XXXX having full rein to solidify the erosion of any legal rights afforded me.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "lender_or_servicer", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/2468241", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/5ae72419a1027b4a5924", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6008, "company": "AES/PHEAA", "date_received": "2017-04-27", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "sub_issue_raw": "Received bad information about your loan", "text_sha256": "5ae72419a1027b4a5924b34768378a7c66726ce529d63e5e8b5f4929b2921700", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I filed a dispute with Capital One and sent a rebuttal regarding the merchants responses with evidence the merchant XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX did not observe local and federal laws in addition I am entitled to reimbursement.

After further consideration of the laws afforded to me as a federally protected person, PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) and XXXX XXXX XXXX owe me remedies, as afforded to me through federal and state law, for improperly reporting my credit account to the three Credit Reporting Agencies ( XXXX ), XXXX ( a non-affiliate ), XXXX ( a non-affiliate ), and XXXX ( a non-affiliate ) ; sharing my personal information between XXXX XXXX XXXX, the XXXX ( non-affiliates ) and PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) without my expressed written consent ; selling my personal information without my written consent to a non-affiliate ( i.e. PYOD LLC ) ; misrepresentation of facts by alleging and communicating to me that a debt was owed to PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX when PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) willingly and knowingly \" purchased the debt '' from XXXX XXXX XXXX thus nullifying any alleged debt to XXXX XXXX XXXX ; and, damaging my credit report and credit reporting history by reporting this alleged debt to the XXXX which misrepresented my creditworthiness and caused me financial and material damages as it prevented me from obtaining a more favorable credit rating ultimately resulting in me being denied credit, having a lower available credit line, and/or having a higher interest rate on certain lines of credit. The specific violations of law committed by PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) and XXXX XXXX XXXX are, but are not limited to : The Privacy Act of 1974 and 15 USC 1681 ( 4 ) which states that I have the right to privacy.\n\n15 USC 1681 which states that there must be a permissible purpose for this information to be shared 15 USC 1681a which provides for the definitions and rules of construction where specifically subsection ( d ) Consumer Report.\n( XXXX ) In general.The term consumer report means any written, oral, or other communication of any information by a consumer reporting agency bearing on a consumers credit worthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living which is used or expected to be used or collected in whole or in part for the purpose of serving as a factor in establishing the consumers eligibility for ( A ) credit or insurance to be used primarily for personal, family, or household purposes ; ( B ) employment purposes ; or ( C ) any other purpose authorized under section 1681b of this title.\n( XXXX ) Exclusions.Except as provided in paragraph ( XXXX ), the term consumer report does not include ( A ) subject to section 1681s3 of this title, any ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report ; ( ii ) communication of that information among persons related by common ownership or affiliated by corporate control ; or ( iii ) communication of other information among persons related by common ownership or affiliated by corporate control, if it is clearly and conspicuously disclosed to the consumer that the information may be communicated among such persons and the consumer is given the opportunity, before the time that the information is initially communicated, to direct that such information not be communicated among such persons ; ( B ) any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device ; ( C ) any report in which a person who has been requested by a third party to make a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly to a consumer conveys his or her decision with respect to such request, if the third party advises the consumer of the name and address of the person to whom the request was made, and such person makes the disclosures to the consumer required under section 1681m of this title... Both XXXX XXXX XXXX and PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) failed to meet and/or adhere to any of these definitions and violated my federally protected rights when they engaged in a monetary transaction to buy and sell my personal and financial information.\n\n15 USC 1681b which states that there must exist a permissible purpose and that ( a ) In general, subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( XXXX ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. Neither XXXX XXXX XXXX nor PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) obtained my written instructions.\n\n15 U.S. Code 1681q - Obtaining information under false pretenses - In the attached letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX, it states that XXXX XXXX had no knowledge of how PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) obtained my information nor that they were attempting to collect any alleged debt from me. However, in PYOD LLC 's ( a non-affiliate ) response letter to the complaint filed with the CFPB on or about XX/XX/XXXX, PYOD LLC asserts that they \" purchased '' the \" debt '' from \" XXXX XXXX XXXX ''. Thus, the two ( 2 ) letters conflict in how PYOD LLC obtained my personal information which was under XXXX XXXX 's fiduciary and material care from approximately XXXX to XXXX. This also means that PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) may have obtained my personal information under false pretenses and/or stole my information from XXXX XXXX XXXX , and/or XXXX XXXX XXXX was negligent in protecting my personal information. This also means that either XXXX XXXX Bank and/or PYOD LLC is in violation of 15 USC 1681r , which is punishable by a fine under title 18 and/or no more than 2 years in XXXX.\n\n! 5 USC 1681 s-3 affiliate sharing.

PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) did violate this code by committing these acts.\n\nPYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) also violated 15 USC 1692c ( a ) Communication with the consumer which states that generally, Without the prior consent of the consumer given directly to the debt collector or the express permission of a court of competent jurisdiction, a debt collector may not communicate with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt ( b ) Communication with third parties which states ; Except as provided in section 1692b of this title, without the prior consent of the consumer given directly to the debt collector, or the express permission of a court of competent jurisdiction, or as reasonably necessary to effectuate a postjudgment judicial remedy, a debt collector may not communicate, in connection with the collection of any debt, with any person other than the consumer, his attorney, a consumer reporting agency if otherwise permitted by law, the creditor, the attorney of the creditor, or the attorney of the debt collector. PYOD LLC ( a non-affiliate ) violated this code when it reported to the CRAs, my alleged debt with XXXX XXXX XXXX negatively affecting my credit score and overall creditworthiness.\n\nPYOD LLC violated 15 U.S. Code 1692e and 15 USC 1681q- False or misleading representations by communicating that they had the legal right to collect any alleged debt on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX PYOD LLC also violated this code by asserting that a debt was still owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX, when in fact PYOD LLC had purchased the debt making the debt owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX \" void '', \" cancelled '', \" redeemed '', and/or otherwise \" paid in full ''.

I am filing this complaint because Chrysler keeps trying to state that this loan was not predatory and so on. First and foremost I was completely taken advantage of a the XXXX dealership and not only that I was overcharged about XXXX on what I should have paid on this. As a single mom and under duress since I needed a new car and was in a bad place after divorce I took this loan and it has been the biggest regret of my life. XXXXSANTANDER/ Chrysler Capital should be ashamed and they have been investigated multiple times and have had to pay fines. But I am attaching the letter from them after XXXX. They claim that the loan was not predatory but it clearly was and they actually prove that in their letter since it clearly shows how much I have struggled to even pay this loan. Not only that the car I have had to spend over XXXX on repairs on from the head gasket to the transmission and cat converter non of which was covered in warranty. I also cancelled the extended warranty and gap insurance 2 months after purchase which was supposed to be credited on my account. in XXXX which seems they never did either. Also when they claim this loan was not predatory then why has it been so difficult for me to make payments which is clearly proven in the letter they sent to me. I can barely pay for this and as a single mother of 2 this loan has drained the life of me and been a constant stress. Chrysler has been nothing but horrible and dismissive. To date I have paid them over XXXX for a XXXX car ( owing another XXXX ) and still all my money just lines their pocket with interest. I could never refinance since the car has always been underwater as well. I do not want this to happen to any other person and that is why I am sending this and that is why I am showing where the issues are. If this was an easy non predatory loan then I would not have 32 late payments. All of my other bills are paid on time. Honestly I should have never been approved for a XXXX payment. There is no way I could make it. XXXX is what I should have been approved up to. While Chrysler Capital tries to place blame on everyone but them it is quite clear they also hold liability here and are preying on struggling people. Also they sent me an email on XX/XX/XXXX stating they had options to help me on my loan and when I called them they just stated they have nothing to help with and they just email that out to have you call in. False advertising Dear XXXX, Chrysler Capital is pleased to service your vehicle account. Our goal is to make your experience with us a positive one.\n\nBased upon a review of your account it appears that we may have assistance for you. We are here to help you but need to speak with you to discuss these options.\n\nPlease contact us at XXXX, Monday through Friday, between the hours of XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX., CT, or Saturday, from XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX., CT, to speak with a customer service representative regarding your account.\n\nWe appreciate your business and look forward to assisting you with your auto finance needs.\n\nSincerely, Chrysler Capital I want the CFPB to use this information to educate people and investigate into these practices that Chrysler denies. I have already started a private XXXX page for people to share their stories about this and I am in discussions with an attorney. For either working on my case about predatory and discriminatory actions towards women specifically. I have learned a valuable lesson and I am smarter on this now and see how I was taken advantage of. Chrysler Capital needs to pay for how horrible of a company they truly are. Their reviews are the same all BAD. I am not alone in this and this company has the worst customer service and values I have ever dealt with. I will be posting all over the internet the letter they sent me. No one likes to show that have struggled to pay a car loan but this loan has destroyed my life and one I still can't get away from because how under water it is. I am sick to my stomach how this company has taken my happiness and ability to give my kids things to pay for it and at that point barely pay it. I took a huge pay cut in XXXX but this company will never refinance or do anything to help customers. They just offer XXXX extensions which gives them more money in interest. It does not help the customer. I will never buy a XXXX XXXX ever again and I am working with people to expose that I am not the only one this company has destroyed.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "vehicle_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/5239049", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/09c77c738af99772e90f", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4525, "company": "Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc.", "date_received": "2022-02-18", "product_raw": "Vehicle loan or lease", "issue_raw": "Struggling to pay your loan", "sub_issue_raw": "Denied request to lower payments", "text_sha256": "09c77c738af99772e90f81b38913deebf7a8a0366c6d21b28ff092ea253adf55", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "On XXXX i had made a purchase for two stainless steel automatic watches.

These violations contradict House Joint Resolution XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ), Public Law XXXX ( Emergency Banking Act ), the Uniform Commercial Code ( UCC ), the U.S. Constitution, and various federal laws and regulations.\nDetailed Summary of Violations : Failure to Honor Securities and Lawful Payment Instruments : I tendered lawful payments using securities and negotiable instruments provided by CHASE CARD SERVICES, such as bills, statements, equity checks, bearer bonds, and coupons attached to the statements. According to XXXX XXXX ( a ) and UCC XXXX XXXX a ) ( XXXX ), these instruments are valid as negotiable instruments, and I accepted these securities \" for value, '' issuing a restrictive endorsement as outlined in UCC XXXX. Additionally, I affixed postage stamps ( lawful money ) to these securities under XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX ( b ) ( XXXX ), reinforcing my payments.\nDespite receiving these securities through registered and certified mail, CHASE CARD SERVICES failed to discharge the debt, return the securities, or properly credit my account, in violation of XXXX XXXX ( b ). This provision mandates that any obligation is discharged to the extent of a payment made by a negotiable instrument unless that instrument is returned or dishonored. Their retention of the securities without action violates my rights as both a creditor and holder of the instruments.\nUnlawful Closure of Accounts and Definition of \" Accounts '' : It is important to clarify that the term account inherently means a place for deposits and withdrawals, not a static or limited financial agreement. As such, CHASE CARD SERVICES unlawfully closed my accounts even after I had discharged the related debts through the lawful tender of securities. These accounts, by their nature, should be considered open-ended credit plans, which should not have a predetermined limit. Under my unlimited right to contract, as protected by the U.S. Constitution, I am entitled to maintain these accounts without arbitrary closure, particularly after meeting my financial obligations through lawful payments.\nThe attempt to impose artificial credit limits or close my accounts after the debt was discharged is unlawful. Showing limits on an open-ended credit plan, as CHASE CARD SERVICES has done, is illegal and contrary to both the terms of open-ended credit and contract law principles. Their action constitutes a breach of XXXX XXXX concerning the resolution of debts through accord and satisfaction and violates my constitutional right to contract freely without interference.\nPotential Fraud, Theft, and Securities Fraud : In addition to their mishandling of the securities and failure to honor my lawful payments, I am concerned that CHASE CARD SERVICES may be engaging in fraudulent activities. By retaining the securities I sent, continuing to demand payment for already discharged debts, and unlawfully closing accounts, they may be guilty of theft, securities fraud, and other forms of financial fraud. Their refusal to properly process the negotiable instruments and their subsequent closure of the accounts indicate potential securities fraud under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and related provisions under federal securities laws.\nLanguage fraud may also be present in the manner in which the terms of my accounts, securities, and payments have been communicated. CHASE CARD SERVICES has used deceptive or unclear language that obscures the nature of my rights and obligations, particularly in regard to the use of lawful money and the nature of the securities provided. By misleading me about the status of the accounts and payments, they are potentially engaging in fraudulent misrepresentation under 18 U.S. Code 1341 ( Mail Fraud ) and 18 U.S. Code 1343 ( Wire Fraud ).\nViolation of Holder-in-Due-Course Laws : As the holder of the securities and negotiable instruments I tendered, I am entitled to the protections and rights outlined in UCC XXXX. A holder in due course has the right to enforce the payment of the instrument free from most claims and defenses. CHASE CARD SERVICES, by refusing to honor my position as the holder of these instruments, has violated my holder-in-due-course rights. They retained the securities without processing them, have continued to unlawfully demand further payments, and have denied my rightful claim to the value of these instruments, in violation of XXXX XXXX ( concerning defenses and claims to an instrument ).\nViolation of U.S. Codes and Federal Regulations : By refusing to process the private instruments I provided, unlawfully retaining my securities, and denying my right to claim them, CHASE CARD SERVICES has violated various U.S. codes, including 12 U.S. Code 411, which governs the issuance and use of lawful money. Additionally, they have breached multiple provisions of the Code of Federal Regulations ( CFR ), particularly those governing the handling of negotiable instruments and securities. The improper handling of these private instruments suggests potential violations of 15 U.S. Code Chapter 41- Consumer Credit Protection.\nFailure to Discharge Debt Under the Emergency Banking Act and Gold Clause : According to Public Law XXXX ( Emergency Banking Act ) and HJR XXXX, all debts must be discharged upon the tender of lawful money. My payment, which consisted of securities and lawful money ( postage stamps ), fully satisfied the obligation.

I opened the account online. I was only able to enter my first and last name on the Citibank application for a new Savings Account. On XX/XX/XXXX Citibank initiated a small/test amount of money to verify the account was set up. Then on XX/XX/XXXX, Citibank initiated {$10000.00} from my XXXX XXXX account and {$1000.00} from my XXXX account on XX/XX/XXXX. It took a few days, but that money was accepted. Then on XX/XX/XXXX, Citibank initiated another {$10000.00} transfer, and on XX/XX/XXXX another {$10000.00}, and XX/XX/XXXX another {$10000.00} transfer. These XXXX transfers were first labeled as pending, then rejected. I called Citibank on XX/XX/XXXX to ask why they had not deposited my money yet. They took my first two deposits of {$10000.00} and {$1000.00}, but then stopped accepting my deposits.\n\nOn approximately XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX I was locked out of my account on two separate occasions and had to call to have it unlocked to be able to see my account. This took over a week each time I had to contact them. They told me the names didn't match exactly, so the deposits were not accepted. I found it odd that the first {$10000.00} and {$1000.00} deposits were accepted. The name on the Citibank account was XXXX XXXX only because this is all I could enter on the online application, so I learned they were investigating this as possible fraud. My name was indicated as XXXX XXXX on the CitiBank account, but XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was on the XXXX 's account. My name is XXXX XXXX on my XXXX account. I go by XXXX XXXX, but my legal name is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.\n\nI was transferred to the security fraud department. I participated in a 3-way call with Citibank and XXXX and we discussed that my name, my address, my birthdate, phone number and social security numbers matched, everything about me was verified. My name did not match exactly and this is why my account was locked! I was calling Citibank regularly, multiple times a day, to inquire about when my account was going to be unlocked and my {$30000.00} deposited into my Citibank account. As suggested, I drove to XXXX, VA the closest branch to where I live, which was over 250 miles each way, to meet with XXXX XXXX XXXX ID XXXX, a personal banker at Citibank. She changed my name to match exactly what was on the XXXX account - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, which is my legal name. This was supposed to unlock my account. It got my account unlocked, HOWEVER, my {$30000.00} has still not been deposited back into either of my accounts and Citibank tells me that it has been rejected and XXXX has not received it back.\n\nI have tracing numbers from XXXX that shows the 3 transactions were completed on XX/XX/XXXX. My money was taken from the XXXX account and sent to Citibank.\n\nI obtained the Tracing Numbers by XXXX that the money was sent to CitiBank. They are as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX One of these {$10000.00} transactions was accepted, but I do not know which one it is.\n\nThese are Reference Numbers ( Not tracing numbers ) from CitiBank, showing the money was rejected.\nXXXX XXXX XXXX This is the Reference Number for the {$10000.00} they did accept, XXXX.\n\nCitiBank did accept one of these transactions for {$10000.00}, but rejected the other three {$10000.00} deposits. Now, they tell me they do not have my additional {$30000.00}, nor do they know where the money is.\n\nI perceive that the ACH back bank people are either hiding something or have deposited my money into someone else 's account. They are not admitting they know where my money went or where it is now. All of this has resulted from CitiBank investigating my account for fraud that was never the case to start with. It was a simple difference in my name which the CitiBank application caused by limiting how my name could be entered. It should have been something as simple as verifying me by my social security number to clear up any doubt about my identity.\n\nI have been contacting CitiBank time after time and they still keep giving me the run around about where my money is. They blame each other for the issue. This has been going on for months now. This is {$30000.00} of my money that has disappeared! It is not at my origination bank - XXXX, nor is it at the destination bank - CitiBank. Citibank did recently reference their ACH. I was told that XXXX was the company responsible as a third party for them who supposedly handled the transfer back to my XXXX account. Citibank says they never took possession of the money and it was sent back, so they have no way of tracing it. They told me that XXXX is responsible for recalling the money/transaction from XXXX. XXXX says since they do not use a third party vendor to perform their transfer, because they do all of these types of transfers in house, they don't know anything about XXXX or how to contact them. Citibank will not provide me with a phone number or any way to contact XXXX. What am I to do?\n\nXXXX, with the assistance of XXXX, tried to contact XXXX and they told us they don't even have a contract with Citibank to do anything, so we were told. However, Citibank says they do. Citibank is now attempting to contact XXXX by using a form that is supposed to have them find out where the money is. This form is used only after money is missing for over two months, I was told by Citibank today, XX/XX/XXXX. I'm sure you can understand why I don't feel very confident in this attempt.\n\nNo other people are involved at this point other than myself. I did contact the FDIC and they referred me back to you. You XXXX have received a letter from : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Division of Depositor and Consumer Protection Telephone : ( XXXX ) ASK-FDIC Fax : ( XXXX ) XXXX At this point, I am at a loss about what my next step should be. I have been contacting Citibank almost daily. I am afraid that my concerns are being ignored by this international entity.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that you, the credit-reporting agency report accurate and/or correct account information within my credit file. My credit issues are very specific, these accounts and/or items do not belong to me. This means that you are reporting incorrect account information within my credit report. It is this in mind that I request that these listed accounts and items be Blocked and Deleted. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act FCRA, Section 1681c ( 2 ) Block of information resulting from identity theft. 1.Block. Except as otherwise provided in this section, a consumer reporting shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than four ( 4 ) business days after the date receipt by such agency of 1.

Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously \" verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of \" records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. ( 6 ) Failure to transmit the statement required under section 1637 ( b ) of this title to the last address of the obligor which has been disclosed to the creditor, unless that address was furnished less than twenty days before the end of the billing cycle for which the statement is required. ( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the Bureau. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts. ( b ) Reports by creditor on delinquent amounts in dispute ; notification of obligor of parties notified of delinquency If a creditor receives a further written notice from an obligor that an amount is still in dispute within the time allowed for payment under subsection ( a ) of this section, a creditor may not report to any third party that the amount of the obligor is delinquent because the obligor has failed to pay an amount which he has indicated under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, unless the creditor also reports that the amount is in dispute and, at the same time, notifies the obligor of the name and address of each party to whom the creditor is reporting information concerning the delinquency. ( c ) Reports by creditor of subsequent resolution of delinquent amounts A creditor shall report any subsequent resolution of any delinquencies reported pursuant to subsection ( b ) to the parties to whom such delinquencies were initially reported. 1666b. Timing of payments ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Because I take my credit very seriously, I contacted every name and account that was listed on the report. I was again very shocked by the multiple names, account numbers and figures. Included with this letter, is every letter written to those who have hampered my ability to obtain credit. I believe that any judge that looks over the report would agree that it is a violation of both the FCRA, CCPA and FACTA. The following accounts were listed on your report and I have demanded from them a full accounting and five years worth of records to see if their accounts were in violation of the FAIR CREDIT BILLING ACT ( FCBA ). We also demanded signed contracts, agreements or any legal paperwork that would tie us to the following accounts. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct an investigation on this account if I request it. I DEMAND to see all 100 % verifiable proof that I was indeed Verifiably late on these accounts and the creditor fulfilled its obligations under ( FCBA 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) ), As I was never notified of a billing delinquency on my accounts, which the creditor must do under section ( FCBA1666 ( b ) ( 6 ). I DEMAND to see proof that I was mailed my statement to the correct address notifying me of both payment due date and delinquency of payment on the account. If you can not provide 100 % Verifiable proof and proper documentation that the CREDITOR fulfilled its obligations under the ( FCBA ) and ( FCRA ), I therefore demand these late payments be removed from my account or I will be forced to be in contact with the Attorney General of my State and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

For background I am a 5th year Biology Ph.D. candidate with the timeline to graduate in XX/XX/XXXX. I came from an extremely low-income background and therefore my parents did not have the credit to co-sign federal student loans. For that reason I had to get private student loans with variable interest rates co-signed with my grandmother to attend XXXX.\n\nI therefore unfortunately have student loans with Sallie Mae. For the student loans they only allow 48 months of graduate in-school deferment. Therefore this summer I worked throughout the months on XXXX and XXXX to get them to approve a temporary extension of the deferment through XXXX such that I could finish my Ph.D. and not drop out. With the caveat that if I can not get the deferment I would not be able to afford to finish my degree and would have to drop out 8 months before finishing. During this time 3 separate agents told me the deferment would be approved as long as my institution provided the documentation that I was fully enrolled ( they did ). The final agent told me they could see the deferment in my account and to not worry because it had already been applied. From talking the customer advocates today they reiterated that that was in my account for XXXX and XXXX, but was removed in XXXX once the 48 months lapsed.\n\nI tried to work with them on two more occasions once with a customer service rep and once with a customer advocate to determine any other options to help lower my payments to pay just interest or to get that 8 month extension on my deferment. I was told by both customer service and customer advocates that my only option would be forbearance and I could only use that for 4 of the 8 months I had left in my graduate program. This is because after XXXX I used 8 months of forbearance to do a year of service helping children living in extreme poverty in the XXXX XXXX.\n\nI also asked if we could refinance them to get a lower or fixed interest rate and they said they do not provide that service, but I could go elsewhere. I am looking into that but that has been difficult because I am still enrolled in school even though the loans I have are from XXXX ( XXXX ). I also disclosed to Sallie Mae that I am also publicly crowd source funding my last year of my Ph.D. due to this circumstance, which is true and has been successful so far. Though unfortunately only successful enough to get me through XXXX not through the rest of the year, so unfortunately I will probably still have to dropout. As a XXXX XXXX XXXX student from a family still living in poverty this is heartbreaking and disgusting.\n\nMy principal on the loan was only ~ {$67000.00} but now I owe more than {$120000.00} due to interest alone and it is disgusting. I am working on my Ph.D. such that I can get the best paying job possible to not only pay off my student loans, but also help my family get out of poverty and have a house of their own one day. I can't pay {$1500.00} a month in student loans as a grad student only makes {$1900.00} a month, but I offered to pay any lesser amount, but they were not willing to work with me it was everything or forbearance or delinquency.\n\nI also brought up the fact that 3 customer service reps told me on the phone in front of witnesses that my loans would be deferred and not to worry as long as I stayed enrolled in school full-time to then go back on that once XXXX hit.\n\nI have also been reading a lot about the law suit against XXXXSallie Mae due to forbearance steering of low-income students, and I am heartbroken that my loans were current and not delinquent at the time. Though I wanted to submit this complaint because I would say after speaking to at least 5 agents in XXXX and XXXX of XXXX they have changed none of their practices when it comes to forbearance steering of low-income students and should 100 % be fined or sued again. I am not saying that such that my loan could be forgiven or removed from them, but such that they could not do this ever again. They also gave me an extremely predatory loan and as a low-income student with 0 other options for a student loan for XXXX I had no other option that was it, but that doesn't make it okay.\n\nAlso, they do not offer the interest only graduated repayment option to graduate students because you have to apply for that during the first 18 months after you graduate from XXXX and as graduate students the issue isn't until 48 months after you graduate from XXXX.\n\nAll in all I hope that Sallie Mae gets re-sanctioned because their treatment of me and my student loan in this circumstance has been both inhumane and disgusting. I had said a million times that me finishing my Ph.D. would put me in the best place to pay back the loan without undue financial difficulty, but they just didn't care. To them I am no more than a poor person who was XXXX enough to get a loan with them when I was XXXX to try and better the life of myself and my family.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "struggling_to_repay", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/5965322", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/01e4fa649c126f146f13", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5090, "company": "SLM CORPORATION", "date_received": "2022-09-09", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Struggling to repay your loan", "sub_issue_raw": "Can't get other flexible options for repaying your loan", "text_sha256": "01e4fa649c126f146f133f50ce7421d15283bee43347109fd1d15179358108b0", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "On XX/XX/XXXX, I was approved for {$3500.00} credit with Conn 's. On XX/XX/XXXX, I visited the Conn 's located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, TX XXXX, ( XXXX ) XXXX to select a bedroom set and grill. During the finalization of the transaction, I was asked to sign the agreement on what appeared to be an XXXX housed in a protective cover. The screen made reading the information obscure, so asked if a copy could be sent to my email. A copy was never sent. I was then told how much I would pay, and I left. The next day, XX/XX/XXXX, I called that Conn 's to cancel the bedroom furniture, but keep the grill. I was told someone would return my call, but after not hearing back from anyone there, I visited the store in person to cancel the bedroom furniture. I asked if I needed to sign anything because of the change and was told no. I was also told that it was not a problem and the grill would be delivered as scheduled. At the time of agreement, I requested that the grill be assembled, which was a {$30.00} fee. The entire purchase was predicated on a 12 month interest free with free delivery agreement, which was advertised throughout the Conn 's showroom. The grill was delivered assembled as scheduled. A month later when I attempted to make my first payment online, I encountered a problem setting up the online account. I contacted the store where I purchased the grill and was told that I had to make the payments at that store 's location. This was difficult because of my work schedule at the time. No one was able to assist me with accessing the account online. When I finally gained access, the website showed that I owed more than XXXX XXXX dollars for the grill. I was finally able to go into the store in XXXX and make the very first payment. When I questioned them about the amount that was displayed on that login, they could not explain. I then asked for a copy of the agreement again, but never received it. I returned to the store in XXXX to make another payment. This is when I learned that the balance for a {$430.00} grill was now almost {$1000.00}. I was also told that it was a loan and not Conn 's credit as I originally thought. I was also told that there was interest and insurance involved that total. I requested to speak with manager after manager, and was told that everything was being done to resolve this issue. Nothing was ever done to help resolve this issue, so in XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a complaint with the XXXX XXXX XXXX siting the same issues I'm siting here. A representative responded that they would change the contract to fix the issue. The contract that was sent showed the same over priced balance. When I pointed this out in a response on the XXXX claim, I was then told that a new contract would be created to resolve the issue. This time, Conn 's waited until after the deadline for my response to move forward or close the matter with them before sending a second contract which didn't change the terms. After that, I received multiple contracts that were back dated and included the same high balance as before. I attempted to XXXX arrangements to settle this account, but they continued to demand that I pay over {$900.00}, even after already paying {$230.00}, which is half of what I actually owed. I never made another payment, and they never attempted to resolve this issue until recently I received mail stating that the balance would be charged off on XX/XX/XXXX if the balance wasn't paid. I called again in hopes of settling the account, but was still being quoted a high amount. On XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a complaint the FTC and I informed the rep with whom I had been communicating that I had file this complaint. A XXXX XXXX responded that day. I requested from him to provide me with a copy of charges and fees and the final payoff amount so that I could put this behind me. He responds two days after they charged it off to inform me that it was charged off for less than any of the agreements ever stated. Now I'm receiving several emails a day asking if I wish to settle the account. I believe that Conn 's is purposefully practicing deceptive trade practices, and decided to ignore my attempt to pay the balance in an attempt to further damage my credit with a charge off.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "personal_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"unexpected_fees": "Charged fees or interest you didn't expect", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay your loan", "making_payments": "Problem when making payments", "payoff": "Problem with the payoff process at the end of the loan", "getting_the_loan": "Getting the loan"}, "label": "unexpected_fees", "src": "cfpb_issue_personal_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/4008027", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/7ce498adc2c1eac8e564", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4237, "company": "Conn's, Inc.", "date_received": "2020-12-12", "product_raw": "Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan", "issue_raw": "Charged fees or interest you didn't expect", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "7ce498adc2c1eac8e56404e53d075f281fc89a88cfe9ee32f8900d85e93da2d1", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Loan Care Servicing Center has reported to XXXX that the mortgage they serviced for me was discharged in Chapter XXXX bankruptcy.

Still I could not log in to my account.\n\nFinally, when the seller of the car ( the car for which I obtained the PenFed auto loan that expired because I could not login ) threatened to sue me ( again ) for breach of contract, I contacted you again.\n\nThis time I was told I had not submitted the ID documents, so I gave your customer representative the reference numbers I received from your software at the time I had uploaded the ID documents.\n\nAfter asking me to hold, your customer service representative returned to the call, and verified that I had indeed uploaded all the ID documents requested, and that all the ID had been verified, and accepted.\n\nThen your customer representative told me that the ( real ) problem was that I had conflicting email addresses on my account ( different spellings of what seemed to be the same email address ). After some minutes, he and I figured out that my email address was not transferred correctly by the PenFed software ( copied from one location in your records, to another location in your records ).\n\nThe correct spelling of my email address is : XXXX ( my last name has a space in it, so I use a period to represent the space in XXXX XXXX ). However, your software copied this email address to another location in your records as : XXXX ( ie, without the period following my title, and also without the period that represents the space in my last name ).\n\nI explained to the customer service representative that the presence of the periods in my email address should not matter, because all email software ignores punctuation marks in email addresses ( ie, XXXX is the same as XXXX ).\n\nThe representative agreed that my it is true that all email software protocols ignore punctuation marks in email addresses, but that the PenFed software does not ignore punctuation in email addresses ( ie, the PenFed software sees XXXX and XXXX as two different addresses ).\n\nHowever, ( illogically ), the PenFed software does not transfer any punctuation in email addresses when copying addresses from one location in your records to another location ( in your records ).\n\nThese conflicting software rules alerted your Fraud department that there was a problem with my account. The original customer representatives I spoke with ( in the first months of my account lockout ) were not skilled enough to determine the nature of the problem, so they forwarded the situation to your technical department to solve.\n\nEvidently, your technical department ( also ) could not figure why I was locked out of my PenFed account, since they never fixed the problem. Perhaps they tried to solve the problem however, they never communicated with me, or with your customer service department. Therefore, your customer service representatives continued to give me an inaccurate answer the many times I called XXXX to say I still could not login ( that the technical department must still be working on the problem ).\n\nThe inaction of the technical department left me hung in the same position for months ( ie, waiting for someone at PenFed to fix the problem, or at least give me an explanation as to why the problem could not be fixed ).\n\nInstead, my inability to login was always in the hands of your Fraud department. Months have gone by without an explanation ( or with an incorrect explanation ), causing all the damage to me that I described above.\n\nYour customer representative had the grace to agree with these conclusions, and promised earnestly that he would get the problem corrected by the Fraud department. He assured me that I would be able to login in two more days.\n\nWell, two days ( and more ) have passed.\n\nCan you guess what I am going to say next?\nI still can not login!\n\nTherefore, I am : 1 ) still being sued for breach of contract because I can not purchase the car for which I obtained the now expired auto loan from you, and 2 ) I still can not pay the last two + months bills ( nor pay all the bounced payment charges ) because you reversed the transfers you gave me permission to make ( from my PenFed account to my XXXX account ), and because I could not complete my PenFed personal loan documents ( due to the fact I could not login to my account to do so ).\n\nSo what would like me to do now?\n\nSincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX, MPH, PhD P.S. I should also say that I am seriously ( perhaps terminally ) ill, XXXX for a decade, almost XXXX XXXX XXXX, and this whole debacle is killing me.\n\nI expect my login to be activated, and my personal loan and my auto loan applications to be reinstated so that I can pay my bills ( and so that I can sign the acceptance forms on both the personal loan and the auto loan, resolve the breach of contract suit, and pay my all the overdrafts as well as the overdraft charges on my XXXX account.\n\nI will certainly be most appreciative of your prompt action in this matter.\n\nCC : consumerfinance.gov ; www./ncua.gov ; www.dobs.pa.gov In case you need the reference numbers for each piece of ID I uploaded : Identity Authentication - XXXX Government Issued ID Identity Authentication - XXXX Government Issued ID Identity Authentication - XXXX Social Security Card Identity Authentication - XXXX Utility Bill Identity Authentication - XXXX Other ( ID )", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "vehicle_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing the loan or lease", "end_of_loan": "Problems at the end of the loan or lease", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan or lease", "repossession": "Repossession"}, "label": "getting_a_loan", "src": "cfpb_issue_vehicle_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/5434997", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/ea01de6218aec1887796", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 8143, "company": "PENTAGON FEDERAL CREDIT UNION", "date_received": "2022-04-11", "product_raw": "Vehicle loan or lease", "issue_raw": "Managing the loan or lease", "sub_issue_raw": "Billing problem", "text_sha256": "ea01de6218aec1887796033f5cb3f3b799be12204e3fa45cb16259953a9ed158", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I received an offer from this card and it advised you pay a one time program fee with access to a {$300.00} limit.

On XX/XX/2023, at approximately XXXX XXXX, I discovered that an individual or group, likely using a [ n ] fictitious, similar, or exact names and/or one or more of them has changed their legal name to match mine, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX had intentionally, knowingly, and willfully gained unauthorized access to my online Experian credit file account. This intentionally and repeatedly unauthorized access occurred on several occasions, specifically dated on XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, and XX/XX/2023. The fictitious, similar, or exact name individuals has obtained my login Personal Identifiable Information ( PII ), including my email address, password, and cellular phone two-steps authentication codes ( received via SMS text messages ), and subsequently deleted these text messages from my XXXX XXXX Messages App, leaving no trace my online Experian credit file account had been compromised. Please refer to Exhibit A for evidence.\n\nTo substantiate my claims, I have maintained a written logbook of my online Experian credit file account activities. Although, I had accessed my online Experian credit file account dated on XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, and XX/XX/2023, for the sole purpose of printing out my Experian credit reports, I had noticed one discrepancy. The Experian credit report generated on XX/XX/2023, is missing from the list displayed dropdown menu within my online Experian credit file account which is particularly notable. However, I possess a printed copy of the missing Experian credit report unlisted from that date ( XX/XX/2023 ). Please refer to Exhibit B for evidence. This discrepancy confirms that the fictitious, similar, or exact name individuals had unlawful accesses to my online Experian credit file account and generated my online Experian credit reports dated on XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, XX/XX/2023, and XX/XX/2023, without my lawful authorities. Therefore, I have conclusive evidence of the fictitious, similar, or exact name individuals unauthorized and intentional nature of their actions against my online Experian credit file account.\n\nI want to emphasize that I have taken extensive precautions to safeguard my online Experian credit file account. I have regularly cleared my browser data daily in order to prevent unauthorized tampering, refrain from sharing my files with anyone, and abstain from signing any official notarized instruments, including power of attorney, affidavits, or waivers of rights, with anyone person even family members. Despite these measures, the fictitious, similar, or exact name individuals have deliberately targeted, threatened, harassed, and hacked into my computer devices, asserting their ownership and property rights over my personal identification documents, authentication features, identification cards and online Experian credit file account.\n\nThe fictitious, similar, or exact name individuals who have assumed my full legal name, XXXX XXXX XXXX, unlawfully obtained, accessed, allocated, allowed, assigned, advocated, granted, permitted, and disseminated my online Experian credit reports through an enabler ( s ) who, in turn, believed the psychological gaslighting tactics employed by the fictitious, similar, or exact name individuals. These enablers have employed backdoor identity theft methods or schemes, with the intention of controlling my life by using my online Experian credit reports for fraudulent activities, without any legal proof, evidence, or due process of the law. Their actions resemble those of vigilantes, denying me the protection of the law and suggesting that I have stolen my own identity from individuals of XXXX or XXXX descent or from a XX/XX/XXXX individuals, all without due process of the law.\n\nIt is evident that the fictitious, similar, or exact name individuals purpose behind these unauthorized accesses actions were to obtain hard copies of my online Experian credit reports, which the fictitious, similar, or exact name individuals intended to use for their own benefit without my consent, acknowledgement, and lawful authority. This constitutes consumer fraud, as the fictitious, similar, or exact name individuals have fraudulently presented my Experian credit reports to various governmental and non-governmental entities, such as for : apartment rental opportunities, employment opportunities, vehicle purchases opportunities, banking institutions ( in order to open bank accounts ), post educational institutions ( for applicability of admission acceptance into colleges and universities ), and contractual lease agreements.\n\nBy providing these various governmental and non-governmental entities with my online Experian credit reports without my lawful authorities, the fictitious, similar, or exact name individuals have committed acts that violates my Constitutional or Civil Rights.\n\nThese actions have violated my fundamental rights in several ways : 1.

I paid some payments through the years but finally defaulted after some financial difficulties. In XXXX, XXXX XXXX ( I think ) contacted me about rehabilitating my loan. They said if I paid {$150.00} per month for a year then my credit would be cleared and I could just keeping making payments. Nothing was ever mentioned about higher payments in the future.\n\nAfter the year of full payments on time, they said I had to make {$400.00} a month payments. I said I couldn't, so they said they would garnish my wages. I let that go through since at the time they could only garnish 10 %, which was less than the {$400.00} a month. I figured they would just take it out of my paycheck & it would be paid off. They never mentioned that they were required to negotiate a monthly amount with me, as I have since found they were required to. They said pay the {$400.00} or be garnished.\n\nLater the garnishment went up to 15 % due to a change in Florida law. I was garnished for 12 years. When I called to get a status after the 12 years, they said I still owed about {$30000.00} ( the original loan was {$18000.00} ). When I tried to contact the servicer at that time, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I think run under XXXX XXXX, their website was gone & the phone number directed me to Sallie Mae, who had no information on any outstanding loans. I checked with my employer & got the name of the collection agent, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I contacted them & now they said I owe about {$40000.00}! If I'm making payments, then how could my balance have gone up in 1 year.? They sent me paperwork & pushed me to reconsolidate. All of this is not 100 % since Im going from memory and I have been confused between who holds the loan and who services the loan, and then it gets sold so Im confused again.\n\nI have included Navients documentation of my loan payments. I also printed the payment history from XXXX XXXX website. It shows I have paid {$92000.00} on what was originally an $ XXXX loan!\n\nIn addition, Navient said back then that they had no record of payments from me except for the garnishment payments. I found the history of my payments on I think the XXXX XXXX or Sallie Mae site & sent it to them.\n\nI submitted a complaint to the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau. Navient denied to the CFPB that I had made any payments other than the garnishments, but you can see from both their list and the XXXX XXXX list that I have. I told the CFPB that Navient was wrong or lying, and the next thing I know, they cancelled my garnishment. I thought maybe they had agreed that I had more than paid for this loan, but apparently they just sold it to XXXX XXXX XXXX since it had become a problem account.\n\nI asked for a hearing, as was my right. I never got one. Most of the above information I sent to the hearing officer. One the date & time of my hearing appointment, no one called. I called Navient & they said the officer suspended my payments & there would be no hearing. This went for a couple of years. Now every year or so I get another letter from another collector. I send them the information preceding this, including the CFPB complaint, and ask for a hearing. I get nothing. They are not garnishing my wages right now, but they are still taking my tax refunds. I recently heard again from XXXX again & sent them the previous information & asked for a hearing. Instead of a hearing, I received a history of my payments & a letter from Navient mostly talking about my credit report. I don't know if they are seeking garnishment again.\n\nI am so confused & don't understand how I can pay so much & have my balance go up. I don't even understand the relationship between all the parties involved. I am XXXX years old & coming up on retirement & can't afford to pay {$400.00} a month again, especially if the principal goes up instead of down. That's insane. I feel that since I have paid more than 4 times what I owed, even with penalties and interest, that this loan should be considered paid off.\n\nPlease help.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "lender_or_servicer", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/4277740", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/5a05f5e6f16537317ed7", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4158, "company": "Navient Solutions, LLC.", "date_received": "2021-04-06", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "sub_issue_raw": "Don't agree with the fees charged", "text_sha256": "5a05f5e6f16537317ed76ef55a9778af91572f4c2a564af77fdb04189e78762b", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I attended 2 Universities, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I am in the process of paying XXXX monthly under the IDR program, no problems with that Loan Processor.

However, they are processing loan # XXXX under the SAVE Program. In my emails which have been a total of 7 of them, I have addressed several issues, one being the letters of my account being past due and the threat of sending delinquent information to the credit bureau but most importantly why are you not processing my loan under the SAVE Program? Nelnet has not worked this account under the SAVE Program and on the Federal Student Loan website where I applied for the SAVE Program both loans # XXXX and # XXXX are listed together and I applied for the program on both loans. I called Nelnet on several occasions and was on hold for over an hour. I decided to stay on hold for one occasion and was on hold for over an hour. I finally got a customer service representative who I was on the phone with for another hour because she couldn't figure out along with a supervisor why their system is not capturing loan # XXXX. At this time, they state that I owe {$700.00} monthly on the XXXX ( impossible for me to pay but at least they are still working on this one and repayment has not been initiated ). However, loan # XXXX has been in repayment since XXXX, and is now at a total of {$700.00} due by XX/XX/XXXX.

I have never received any responses to the 7 emails sent and the representative who tried to correct this erroneous mistake deferred the payments but somehow it was removed and back in repayment stating 90 days past due. Nelnet isn't compliant with responding to emails or correcting their mistakes. I am living in fear every day that they are going to report me to the correct bureau. I applied for the SAVE Program because I can not pay 3 loans ( 2 with Nelnet and one with XXXX ) at the payments established without an Income-Driven Repayment Plan/SAVE Program allowing me to pay payments according to my income. My payments with XXXX are on my income and I received notice to resubmit my income documentation so that my payments can continue under the current amount. This is the way it should be handled. I don't understand what Nelnet is doing and why they have selected which loans to process under the SAVE Program.

I have never missed a payment and my account has always been in excellent standing ( as reflected on my credit report ). I tried to purchase some meds that I get by mail order and my payment would not go through. On XX/XX/XXXX I called the customer service line and was informed that my account was closed on XX/XX/XXXX and a letter mailed to me ( which I have still not received to date ). On XXXX and XXXX I made three extra payments, with nothing due at that time. This year I was able to pay off all credit card debt and now pay purchases as they post or at least pay off the card in full every cycle. I did not realize that Chases online system auto-populates the payment funding account to the last account you used so the payments tried to pull from savings that I dont often use. As soon as I realized what happened ( before even receiving notices ) I paid the card from my checking account with I had originally intended.\nChase has used the returned payments as a reason to close my credit card. There was no warning or communication that these returns could cause negative account consequences. The returned item notices gave no indication of closure and even thanked me for my business. They also did not charge me any, so it seems that it was not even serious enough to warrant a fee. Clearly, the decision to close my account was not made at the time of the returns but almost two months later. The timing is suspicious. I had an {$18000.00} credit line which closing could affect my credit score. The only reason I can see that they would review my account and close it almost two months later is that they are using it as an excuse to close my account because I dont carry a balance ( they dont make interest off of me ) and I redeem about $ XXXX {$60.00} of points in statement credits per month ( which there is nothing against in the account agreement and the whole reason I opened this card ). The reason provided to me over the phone on XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX a supervisor ( who refused to let me speak with anyone higher ) was that my account was closed because of the returned payments. However, according to my account agreement, there is no clause that states returned payments could result in account closure. The only clause that deals with returns state We may charge this fee if the payment you offer to us is not honored, is returned unpaid, or can not be processed which has nothing about closing an account ( and was not charged ). The only other clause that allows them to close an account is We are not obligated to honor every transaction, and we may close or suspend your account. Sometimes we close accounts based not on your actions or inactions, but on our business needs. however the reason given to me was based on my action and not a business need. It is clear in their agreement that my contract/account was not terminated in a legally allowable manner ( see attached account agreement ).\nI called on XX/XX/XXXX and requested to speak with a manager. I was transferred to XXXX a supervisor who kept telling me what dont you understand, you had a returned payment. XXXX stated they dont have an external email so could not send me my account agreement, he told me it is not available online, and they could also not send me it via the online messaging system. He also would not cite to me the clause that gives them the right to close it. Seemingly he did not want me to look at it. Also, he stated that a loan is not a contract, which is grossly incorrect. On XXXX I messaged chase that I had a right to obtain my account agreement to which they sent me a direct online link. Why was this not supplied immediately the first time I called on XX/XX/XXXX.\nThis closure appears to be a deceptive way to get out of their relationship with me since they dont see my account as profitable, with complete disregard for their effect on my credit and overall financial health. I also have all my automatic I have to switch, not to mention the fees I would have incurred from other companies if those payments bounce since I did not receive any notice it was closed. They say they sent me a closure letter the same day the account was closed XX/XX/XXXX, but then why does it not show up in the Notice and Letters section of online banking ( See screenshots attached ) like the returned payments notices do, which suggests a closure notice was not actually sent. To date, I have not received any closure notice. This to me appears to be a violation of Reg Z closure notice requirements, a breach of contract/account agreement, and the whole issue is a possible UDAAP violation.\n\nI have worked in the financial sector for over a decade and we would not dream of closing someones account who 1 ) for a reason not legally supported by the account agreement, 2 ) when the client had over a decade of excellent account history, and posed no threat to the financial institution, 3 ) for one mistake, that was an extra payment, 4 ) that did not negatively impact our financial institution, and 5 ) that was the fault of the online system auto-populating the wrong payment account. Their actions are unconscionable and I am being retaliated against for not being a profitable client who is financial responsibility and does not regularly pay interest anymore.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "card", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"purchase_on_statement": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "fees_or_interest": "Fees or interest", "getting_a_card": "Getting a credit card", "making_payments": "Problem when making payments", "closing_the_account": "Closing your account"}, "label": "closing_the_account", "src": "cfpb_issue_card"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3884645", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/b99d3f52be8249db4f72", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5334, "company": "JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.", "date_received": "2020-10-06", "product_raw": "Credit card or prepaid card", "issue_raw": "Closing your account", "sub_issue_raw": "Company closed your account", "text_sha256": "b99d3f52be8249db4f72b9cbc4ac20803c9da87a426de2f19de729b0183d8210", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Re : Request for Removal of Inaccurate Credit Reporting Account Numbers : XXXX & XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute and request the immediate removal of inaccurate information being reported to the credit bureaus regarding my private loan accounts, referenced above. Despite my efforts to resolve these issues, I have discovered that Sallie Mae continues to report negative and misleading information related to these loans.\n\nLoan Account # XXXX : Original Balance : {$20000.00} Settled Amount : {$10000.00}, paid in full to XXXX XXXX ( collection agency ).\nTaxable Settlement : I paid taxes on the settlement amount as required by law.\nLoan Account # XXXX : Original Balance : {$4000.00} Settled Amount : {$1500.00}, paid in full to XXXX XXXX ( collection agency ).\nTaxable Settlement : I also paid taxes on this settlement amount.\nI was under the understanding that these loans were settled in full with the collection agency, XXXX XXXX, and that Sallie Mae would no longer be involved in reporting these accounts. However, despite the full settlement and the fact that I have complied with all necessary steps ( including paying taxes on the settlement amounts ), Sallie Mae continues to inaccurately report a balance due and/or negative information related to these loans.\n\nThis ongoing mismanagement is causing harm to my credit profile and financial well-being. I am requesting that Sallie Mae immediately : Correct the inaccurate information being reported to all three major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ) to reflect that these accounts were settled in full with XXXX XXXX.\nDelete any erroneous balances or derogatory marks that are currently affecting my credit history.\nProvide written confirmation to me that these corrections have been made and that all information has been updated accordingly with the credit bureaus.\nPlease be aware that under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to have accurate and up-to-date information reflected in my credit reports. I trust that Sallie Mae will take the necessary steps to rectify this situation promptly and avoid further damage to my credit.\n\nShould you need any documentation to support my claim, including settlement agreements, tax records, or correspondence with XXXX XXXX, please do not hesitate to contact me at the above address or phone number.\n\nFCRA Violations by Sallie Mae The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is designed to ensure that consumers credit reports are accurate, fair, and private. It also holds credit reporting agencies ( and data furnishers like Sallie Mae ) accountable for providing accurate information. In this case, it appears that Sallie Mae has potentially violated several sections of the FCRA : Section 1681s-2 ( a ) : Duty of Furnishers of Information to Provide Accurate Information Under this section, creditors ( like Sallie Mae ) are required to provide accurate information to the credit reporting agencies. If they are aware that the information being reported is inaccurate, they must correct it. Given that you settled your loans with XXXX XXXX and the debt was paid, Sallie Mae is obligated to report this accurately. Reporting incorrect balance information or an unresolved debt after a settlement is a violation of this provision.\n\nSection 1681i : Procedure in Case of Disputed Information This section gives consumers the right to dispute inaccurate information on their credit reports. Once a dispute is filed, the credit reporting agencies are required to investigate and resolve the dispute within a reasonable timeframe, typically 30 days. If you have already disputed the inaccurate information, and it has not been corrected, Sallie Mae may be in violation of this provision by failing to investigate and correct the inaccuracies.\n\nSection 1681e ( b ) : Accuracy of Information Under this section, the FCRA mandates that credit reports must be accurate and not misleading. If Sallie Mae is continuing to report a balance after the loan was settled, they are violating the FCRAs requirement that information must be accurate and not misleading.\n\nSection 1681s-2 ( b ) : Duty to Investigate Disputes If a dispute is raised by the consumer, the furnisher ( Sallie Mae ) is required to investigate the issue with the credit reporting agencies. If youve already raised this issue directly with Sallie Mae and they have not investigated or corrected the errors, they would be violating this provision.\n\nI look forward to your prompt resolution of this matter.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "credit_reporting", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/10960700", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/dcfdff0733ffe4c69828", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4538, "company": "SLM CORPORATION", "date_received": "2024-11-28", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Incorrect information on your report", "sub_issue_raw": "Public record information inaccurate", "text_sha256": "dcfdff0733ffe4c698286c88ef089c0698f91e81b780ebe7735b7c2ee9305b57", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "On XXXX I initiated an international wire transfer to XXXX XXXX in XXXX, XXXX for {$3700.00} to pay for my daughters wedding.

Bayview Loan Servicing lacks the contractual authority under the Deed of Trust and the statutory authority under Civil Code 2924 to conduct a nonjudicial foreclosure sale.\n\nBayview is obligated not to foreclose absent certain conditions precedent as stated in Section 22 of the Deed of Trust and Bayview breached that obligation by initiating a foreclosure sale although the conditions precedent were absent. The alleged default exists only by virtue of misconduct on the part of Bayview and XXXX XXXX XXXX and their own breach of its terms. ( See Civ. Code, 1511, ( 1 ) [ performance excused when such performance is prevented or delayed by the act of the creditor ]. ) Their actions do not conform sufficiently with the DOT as to allow Bayview to invoke the power of sale.\n\nUnder California contract law, \" hindrance of the other party 's performance operates to excuse that party 's nonperformance. '' ( Erich v. Granoff ( 1980 ) 109 Cal.App.3d 920, 93 ; \" A foreclosure sale in which performance has been prevented could be considered illegal and even willfully oppressive, Citrus El Dorado , LLC v. Stearns Bank NA , No. E067610 ( Cal. Ct. App. Apr. 11, 2019 ). This supported an action for wrongful foreclosure.\n\nAn obligor may not prevent the performance of an obligee and then demand a tender of performance that the obligor itself frustrated. See Cal. Civ. Code 1511-12 ; Harris v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Case No. 12-cv-05629-JST ( N.D. Cal. Apr. 30, 2013 ) ; \" By force of the provisions of section 1511 of the Civil Code, prevention by one party will excuse want of performance or delay on the part of the other. '' ( 6 Cal.Jur., p. 436, sec . 261. ) 1 \" A party to a contract can not take advantage of his own act or omission to escape liability therefrom, and performance of a contract is excused when prevented by the acts of the opposite party, or is rendered impossible by him. '' ( Ray Thomas, Inc., v. Cowan, 99 Cal.App. 140 [ 277 P. 1086 ]. ) Taylor v. Sapritch, 38 Cal. App. 2d 478, 101 P.2d 539 ( Ct. App. 1940. ) The sale is fraudulent as the \" default '' was induced by XXXX 's as part of a scheme to increase profitability at the homeowner 's expense by offering improved loan terms if payments were skipped then refusing payments and initiating foreclosure. The homeowner is kept in default as long as possible while they earn special servicing fees and allow payments to accrue at the note rate. Bayview can then either modify and add the arrears to the principal and earn interest on interest. Or they may choose to foreclose despite having induced default and being themselves the party in breach.\n\nThis is only the latest in the systematic pattern of unlawful conduct that began with a predatory loan that was procedurally and substantively unconscionable with deception at origination and monthly payments in excess of my income. As a result, I ended up in Chapter XXXX where the payments were 89 % of my income not including overcharged escrow.\n\nThroughout the life of the loan XXXX and Bayview have exploited their position of authority and control by deceptive and fraudulent means in an effort to benefit at my expense.This is a willfully oppressive abuse of power.\n\nThe disparity of economics requires a homeowner to either accept the loss of their home or divert funds that could have made loan payments into a Quixotic effort in the legal system against an opponent with comparatively limitless resources.\n\nIt is outrageous for financial institutions to deliberately harm consumers for profit. It is foreseeable that homeowners subjected to these practices, having their homes wrongfully taken from then will experience extreme emotional distress. Prolonged states of XXXX XXXX, it is well known, can lead to physical ailments. After years of fighting for my home I've suffered a XXXX related XXXX injury that impedes my XXXX XXXX XXXX and appears to be a XXXX condition.

This application was apparently then backdated and added me as the primary borrower with him listed as secondary. That application was subsequently approved. I have/had no knowledge of participating in this process and did not attend any closing or other meeting on this issue. I also found a notation in his writing on one letter authorizing auto-deduction from my personal checking account.\nFollowing my husbands death in XX/XX/XXXX, I had to take over handling bill payment for the first time and to begin work on identifying accounts that I had no previous knowledge of. It took me a little time to gather what information I could and to pursue gaining closure on those accounts. I contacted Wells Fargo in XXXX of XXXX asking how I became listed on this Line of Credit account and also who had authorized auto-deduction from my personal checking account. I was told that I was listed as the primary borrower and that my spouse had authorized auto deductions. I explained at that time that I had no knowledge of the account and that I had not approved it. I was informed that since I was primary, it was my responsibility. They did agree to discontinue auto deductions and to begin billing me.\nI was referred to a different customer service department to further explore the account information. A Mr. XXXX XXXX was the assigned representative. I asked to have a copy of the application signature page sent to me so that I could verify my signature. I also asked how it was possible that a Line of Credit for {$5000.00} now had a ceiling of {$15000.00}. No information was offered. XXXX XXXX informed me that they had no copy of the application signature page available, nor proof that I was in the office, but that since I was listed as primary the debt was my responsibility. He further stated that the fact transfers had been made and payments had been made that also indicated it was my responsibility. I told him that of course I had made payments as I didnt want my credit impacted while attempting to sort this out. I asked him to look at the records because there was never any transfer made to my account and provided him with the number. It took several weeks to get this information which was of no significance. He refused to speak with me further, saying he had explained all he was going to. I spoke with an attorney to ask how to proceed with the lack of information and the poor communication. She contacted the department on my behalf, was given a new case number and a representative named XXXX on XXXX. She advised me to give this person a call to introduce myself and to see what further information could be provided. I did so. XXXX was pleasant and told me that it could take up to 10 business days to get the information and to get back to me. When she did contact me on XX/XX/XXXX, the information was basically the same : They had not located the signature page but there was a letter mailed from the branch. She maintained that there was enough research to say that both my husband and I were responsible. I was then referred to the hardship department.\nI passed this information via summary to my attorney and asked what next steps I should take. She recommended that I get in touch with the hardship department and inform them that since apparently the bank can not provide : 1. That I applied for or signed for the loan, either in person or on paper 2. That I ever requested the loan increase 3. That I personally ever received any funds from this account 4. That I ever authorized auto payments from my personal account I should ask the hardship department to confirm in writing that my name would be removed from the loan.\n\nI contacted XXXX on the hardship team and he referred me to an XXXX on the hardship team. I conveyed the above information as stated. He informed me that I needed to speak with the Executive Team regarding the situation and connected me by conference call to XXXX on that team. I spoke with XXXX for a few minutes and reiterated the entire experience, and he nicely let me know that I had been connected to the right people as the Executive Team was the only level that would be authorized to make changes as they were the final level of investigation. He then gave me the name of a XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, along with her direct dial number and yet another case number. On XX/XX/XXXX I was told that XXXX XXXX would contact me within 10 business days. I heard nothing from her, so on XX/XX/XXXX, I called and had to leave a message as she was out until XX/XX/XXXX. Again, I heard nothing so I called on XX/XX/XXXX and again left a message.\n\nWhen I had a conversation with XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, she informed me that per the letter she had sent, a Wells Fargo Card and a NOTR had been used as my ID. I told her that was interesting as Id never had a Wells Fargo Credit Card, she quickly said well it could have been a debit card. I then asked her what a NOTR was, since I had no idea. She told me she didnt know what that was. On the form that was included with the letter ( received the same day as the phone call ), it said no drivers license was provided. Again, I asked her how that could be since I use my drivers license as my ID all the time, and would never be without it. She couldnt answer that either, but said that the form didnt allow her to add any information (? ). Her bottom line was that theres nothing they can do because the evidence points to me being responsible. Again, what evidence?\n\nShe advised me to speak with the Hardship Team to discuss lowering the monthly payment. I did place a call to them but it was never returned.\n\nI dont believe this account is my responsibility. I have absolutely no recollection of any meeting or closing appointment. They can not offer any signature proof or any proof that I was ever in the office for this application. They can not or chose not to explain how a {$5000.00} credit limit was raised to a {$15000.00} limit while my deceased spouse was handling financial arrangements. They can not demonstrate that I benefited in any way from this account by virtue of the fact there is no record of any transfer or cash advancement ever made to my personal checking account. You will also note that on the form provided by XXXX XXXX, my spouse is shown as employed at the time when in reality he had been retired for several years. Nothing about this situation is accurate or my responsibility.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "personal_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3322282", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/5e0d2cab8d51e2210510", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6618, "company": "WELLS FARGO & COMPANY", "date_received": "2019-07-29", "product_raw": "Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan", "issue_raw": "Credit limit changed", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "5e0d2cab8d51e22105103b19a9fc150279bec1f0d5d4ca2129204f65b64db37b", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "So recently I had numerous of charges that were on my credit card that were fraudulent.

Since the origination of the loan in XX/XX/XXXX I have never had a missed or late payment. My last statement from Santander USA dated XX/XX/XXXX listed the total amount outstanding as {$13000.00}, the status of my account was current, {$0.00} past due.\n\nOn inquiring via the Santander website XXXX if the insurance check had been applied to my account I instantly noted that my account shows past due in the amount of {$1200.00} which includes late and interest charges and shows the last payment being received/posted to my account on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX. My Account transaction history clearly shows payments of {$440.00} made and posted on XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. The transaction history also shows 2 seperate transactions dated XX/XX/XXXX removing/reversing 2 payments of {$440.00} and the balance owed on my account as of XXXX is {$13000.00} Santander USA 's explanation is that both payments have been removed so that the insurance check can be backdated to XX/XX/XXXX ( date of total loss ) and the payments will be reapplied. I have never heard of an accounting practice that would require payments physically posted to an account to be removed to retroactively apply {$10000.00} insurance check. This action has effectively places my account into a delinquent status until some future date when Santander USA decides to post the insurance check. Addtionally, Satanders action falsely records my account as delinquent and I am truely concerned this will have a derogatory impact on my credit status with credit bureaus. I strongly believe this action is unethical at best and fraudlent at worst.

I received two letters from Southwest Credit today. Both letters are dated XX/XX/XXXX. Both letters state SWC is attempting to collect a debt for XXXX XXXX and include billing statements from XXXX. Since my first complaint has been closed, I'm going to have to include what the SWC employee wrote in response to my first complaint : the XXXX XXXX account for which SWC is attempting to collect the debt went delinquent in XX/XX/XXXX and was passed to SWC to collect the debt on XX/XX/XXXX. The first XXXX XXXX letter I received a week ago has the street address XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, TX, XXXX, and a XXXX, TX XXXX XXXX XXXX I was supposed to send payment to. The 2 letters I received today don't have the SWC address, only have a XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, TX I'm supposed to send payment to. Though all 3 XXXX XXXX XXXX are in XXXX, TX, the XXXX XXXX number in the first SWC letter I received last week is different than the XXXX XXXX XXXX in both letters I received today. The phone number in the first letter I received last week is XXXX. The phone number I received in the two letters I received today is XXXX. The first letter I received last week had only an account summary stating XXXX XXXX was the current creditor, the same {$78.00} equipment cost as the two letters I received today, but a different balance than the 2 letters I received today. The total amount in all 3 letters SWC is attempting to collect is the same in all 3 letters : {$190.00}. The one-page letter from Southwest Credit in both letters I received today contain the same XXXX XXXX Client Account Number, Southwest Credit Reference Number , Placement Date, Charge Off Amount, Total Adjustments made since Charge Off, Equipment/Client Admin Fee and Collection Fee, Total Payments received since Charge Off, and Current Balance. However, the XXXX billing statements in each letter I received today have different XXXX XXXX Client Account Numbers, Security Codes, names on the billing statements, addresses, dates of service, and a breakdown of amounts due and other charges. In total, there are 3 billing statements : 2 billing statements in one letter and 1 billing statement in the other, but only one billing statement states the service provided by XXXX was for internet service. Neither letter contains a NY Department of Consumer Affairs Account XXXX, a name of a SWC employee, or a XXXX email print-out of when I supposedly opened the account at either street address. I'm going to upload both letters, but I'm also going to write what each billing statement reads. SWC also hasn't emailed me after I emailed them on their website on XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nThe letter with the XXXX billing statements with an XXXX XXXX XXXX address has my name on it, and includes 2 billing statements. The first billing statement is dated XX/XX/XXXX, service from XXXX, previous balance : {$200.00}, payments recieved : XXXX, adjustments : XXXX, past due balance due now : XXXX, one-time charges, XXXX, partial month charges : XXXX, taxes, fees, and charges : XXXX, current charges : XXXX, total due : XXXX. The 2nd billing statement is dated XX/XX/XXXX, service from XXXX, previous balance : {$120.00}, payments received : XXXX, past due balance due now : XXXX, XXXX XXXX : XXXX, one-time charges : XXXX, taxes, fees and charges : XXXX, current charges due by XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, and total amount due : XXXX. Note that the billing cycles overlap : two separate XXXX bills, but the first billing statement is dated XX/XX/XXXX for service from XXXX and the second billing statement is dated XX/XX/XXXX for service from XXXX. Going by the billing statements SWC mailed me, not only did XXXX attempt to charge me twice from XXXX, there was no specified service for which they charged me.\n\nThe letter with the XXXX bill addressed to XXXX XXXX has a XXXX XXXX address on it and 1 billing statement. The billing statement is dated XX/XX/XXXX, service from XXXX, previous balance : {$130.00}, payments received : XXXX, adjustments : XXXX, past due balance due now : XXXX, past due balance due by XX/XX/XXXX : XXXX, and total amount due : XXXX. Remember that the Southwest Credit employee clearly stated in their response to my first complaint that XXXX XXXX not only placed the debt with SWC on XX/XX/XXXX, but also claimed that XXXX XXXX said the debt was valid a few days ago. Also remember each of the 3 letters mailed to me by SWC clearly states that the placement date was XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX is attempting to make me pay for a debt for a different person XXXX provided internet service to at a different address. No utility company is going to give a debt collection agency billing statements for 2 different people living at different addresses. No utility company is going to give a debt collection agency one person 's account number for a different person, a fact SWC is well aware of because the billing statements included in both letters have different XXXX account numbers, security codes, and dates of service. I find it impossible to believe 2 different people living at different addresses have not only the same total debt amount, {$190.00}, but also for unreturned equipment and outstanding balance owed to XXXX XXXX.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "debt_collection", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"debt_not_owed": "Attempts to collect debt not owed", "written_notification": "Written notification about debt", "false_statements": "False statements or representation", "communication_tactics": "Communication tactics", "negative_or_legal_action": "Took or threatened to take negative or legal action"}, "label": "debt_not_owed", "src": "cfpb_issue_debt_collection"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/5020269", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/80a6de17338742d7036a", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5252, "company": "Southwest Credit Systems, L.P.", "date_received": "2021-12-17", "product_raw": "Debt collection", "issue_raw": "False statements or representation", "sub_issue_raw": "Attempted to collect wrong amount", "text_sha256": "80a6de17338742d7036aad90eddcfe92aab90eadf959d2059137430d5db16760", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I am 7 days late paying my car loan.

I went thru this with them everyday about 3 or 4 times a day for 5 days straight.

In a matter to violate my civil rights and retaliate PayPal sent an email to me on Fri, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX STATING BELOW : You can no longer use our services Because you have continually filed cases that do not align with the intent of the PayPal Purchase Protection Program and are contrary to the terms outlined in our User Agreement, weve determined you can no longer use PayPals services. Weve limited your account so you can no longer send or receive funds. Your ability to file PayPal Purchase Protection cases has also been removed. Any existing PayPal Purchase Protection cases you've filed will be denied.\nFor information on account limitations, please refer to the PayPal User Agreement. To find out what to do next, log in to your PayPal account and visit the Resolution Center.\n\nAt Fri, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX- PayPal sent a duplicate message as stated above and Fri, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX -- PayPal sent me another message regarding the complaint I filed with CFPB on Dispute Case ID : XXXX for {$38.00} stating : We have received a response from the merchant and we've also reviewed all the details of your case. Based on the merchants response and the information we have to date, we have to deny your case. This decision was made because our records show that the item or service associated with this transaction was delivered to you.\n\nTransaction Information : Dispute Case ID : XXXX Transaction Amount : {$38.00} USD Dispute Amount : {$38.00} XXXX Transaction ID : XXXX Transaction Date : XX/XX/XXXX PAYPAL will has abused their powers! I have called the resolution ( limitation ) department only to be told. \" Your disputes are costing us money with the merchants and we have cant make money like this with the dispute and charge backs from customers. At PAYPAL, customers don't pay a fee but the merchants do as stated in the review. Per XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX at XXXX review after 177 complaints was filed on PayPal-writes, \" PayPal Transaction Fees Regardless of which plan you are on ( Standard or Pro ), your transactions fees will be as follows : For all online sales, you pay 2.9 % + {$0.00} per transaction.\nFor all swiped/dipped/tapped mobile and in-store transactions, you pay 2.7 %.\nFor all keyed-in mobile and in-store transactions, you pay 3.5 % + {$0.00}.\nFor virtual terminal transactions, you pay 3.1 % + {$0.00} per transaction.\nFor mass payouts, youll pay 2 % using the online form, or {$0.00} per payout using the API.\nIts also worth noting a few other charges apply to transactions as well : For any chargebacks, PayPal assesses a {$20.00} fee.\nAny transactions that originate from outside the US incur a 1.5 % cross-border fee.\nWhen you issue a refund, PayPal charges a small refund fee, equal to the per-transaction fee amount. For online transactions, that means PayPal charges {$0.00} for refunds ; for keyed transactions, it would be {$0.00}.\nIf you initiate an instant transfer, PayPal will charge you 1 % of the transfer amount.\nAlternative Payment Processing Rates While PayPals payment processing costs are very predictable, theyre not suitable for every type of business. You cant negotiate with PayPal for a different rate unless you are essentially a very large corporation, but you can take advantage of a couple of alternative rate offerings : PayPals microtransactions plan and nonprofit discounts.\nMicropayments Rate : 5 % + {$0.00} PayPals micropayments plan is open to all merchants, but it only benefits you if the vast majority of your transactions are under {$10.00}. PayPal wont automatically switch between the two rates based on transaction size, so if you opt for the micropayments plan, you really need to make sure its the best option based on your individual processing history. Generally speaking, if you sell digital goods online ( single songs or digital albums, or other low-value items ), this is the plan you should look for.\nIn addition, qualified 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) organizations who go through the verification process are eligible for a discount for online transactions : Nonprofit Discount Rate : 2.2 % + {$0.00} Sadly, PayPal doesnt offer a discounted rate for in-person transactions processed through its mPOS or a partner POS system, so the discounted rate would apply only to online sales or donations. However, keep in mind that some software providers also offer nonprofit discounts, so if youve integrated PayPal with accounting software, a POS app, or another third party, you should also check whether that company offers a discount.\nPayPal Monthly Fees Remember, there are two options for accepting PayPal on your site that charge nothing beyond transaction fees : PayPal Checkout and PayPal Payments Standard. Both allow you to accept payments on your website but will redirect to the PayPal site to complete the transaction. If you prefer to keep customers on your own page, or if youd like a virtual terminal to take payments over the phone, youll need PayPal Payments Pro : Paypal Payments Pro : {$30.00} per month The biggest advantage, as I said, is that the Pro account lets you keep customers on your page to finish the checkout process. You can completely design your own checkout page. In addition, Pro subscribers get access to the Virtual Terminal to accept payments by phone, mail, and fax.\nUnfortunately, PayPal Payments Pro doesnt include an option for Recurring Billing. Subscription services are hugely popular and if you want to offer them with PayPal, that will run you an extra {$10.00} per month on top of the Pro plan. If you dig a little deeper, youll also see that PayPal offers free recurring billing for users who have implemented PayPal Express Checkout, but not PayPal Standard.\nFinally, its worth noting that PayPal offers its own gateway, the PayFlow gateway, to process payments. It has a high degree of compatibility, so it works with most payment processors. So if you want to sell online but dont want to use PayPal as your primary payment processor, and your chosen processor doesnt offer a gateway, this could be an option. PayFlow supports two plans : PayFlow Link : This pay-as-you-go option costs {$0.00} per transaction, and PayPal charges nothing for setup or monthly fees. Using Link, you can embed a checkout form on your website that will redirect to the PayPal site to complete the transaction. Link also adds PayPal and PayPal Credit buttons.\nPayflow Pro : At $ XXXX/month for the Pro Plan, theres no questioning the value. You wont pay setup fees or per-transaction fees. PayPal doesnt even put a limit on the volume. With the Pro option, you get a completely customizable checkout page thats hosted on your own website, with the options to add PayPal and PayPal Credit options.\nAs I said, PayPal really has something for everyone. I dont know that I can say it has everything everyone would need, but itll definitely tick most of the boxes for most people. While PayPal still is dominating the online space, it definitely has moved beyond to encompass multiple sales channels. Being able to manage in-person and online sales from a single platform is a major point of convenience.\nSeveral cites have complaints against paypal for the same issues related to money and Poor Customer Service. In the findings, Paypal does not care about the Customers because the customers don't paypal for the transactions or for the use of the services. Paypal don't care if the company SCAMS or Fraud the Customer because it quite easy to get rid of the trouble causing customer that don't contribute to the revenue of the company. In comparison with other customers that have filed complaint with CFPB, according to Customer Affairs a total of 2,316 complaints was filed against PayPal has abused their powers in a matter that was very unprofessional by not responding to demands of customer getting their money back to setting limitations on their account so, customer can never use their service again. SEE ATTACHMENTS. IT appears that Paypal allows merchants to take money from Customers then, when fraud it detected by your bank or self awareness PayPal will not protect you as Mission statement indicates. NO CUSTOMER PROTECTION. Customer Protection by the show of complaints will not be given if you have PayPal Credit service or disputing directly with PayPal because, this would be a great lose to Paypal. Paypal however, threaten me also with their ATTORNEY because I filed this Complaint with the CFPB to see them in COURT ... CFPB how many customers have to lose money because of Paypals greed!. Paypal is no different then XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX with stealing from Customer but, Paypal just sides with the merchant. Paypal credit will not refund any money because, it a lose of revenue for paypal no matter if the money was stolen or you was Scam because, you're dealing directly with Paypal. When the merchant responds, no documents are produced to the customer and Paypal states, \" It came from your IP address which, anyone can steal in cyberspace.

I feel like this company knew the were selling faulty cars because after we started having problems the dealership we went to just up and closed no heads up or anything. After I explained everything to the rep about our financial hardships they declined to work with us and lower the payments so we could get back on track. We understand that we missed some paymentsort but after explain our hardships and even breaking down out bills they still were n't willing to work with us.

The roof was completed and solar panels installed by XX/XX/XXXX. However the payments are processed by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I purchased the roof and solar panels XXXX explained that I could apply for a federal residential tax credit using a form XXXX. The federal tax credit or residential energy credit, would be XXXX and if I voluntarily gave that money to Sunlight Financial my monthly payments of XXXX would remain the same after the XXXX payment. However if I kept the XXXX my payment would increase to XXXX after the XXXX paymentthe following is the wording in the contract ( full contract attached ). This section of the contract is my issue : Monthly Payment : {$150.00} for the first XXXX payments, increasing to approximately {$210.00} if the 26 % voluntary payment of {$11000.00} is not paid by the XXXX payment. There are no prepayment penalties.\nHowever, when filing my taxes, form XXXX took into account all my improvements ; the new doors, roof, and solar panels. My residential energy credit was only XXXX not the XXXX strictly for the solar panels. When I first contacted Sunlight regarding my concerns with this payment of XXXX in XXXX of XXXX I was told to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The credit union stated that it didnt matter that I didn't receive the XXXX from the energy credit I will still have an increase in my payment if I don't pay them the XXXX by the XXXX payment. I told the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX representative that this XXXX seems more like a balloon payment although it is not being referred to as one. All In told me to contact Sunlight because they have nothing to do with the contract terms.\n\nI contacted Sunlight again ; per their website it directed customers to text them which I did twice in XX/XX/XXXX but did not receive a call back. I posted the following XXXX review of the company on XX/XX/XXXX : \" I contacted sunlight via text 3 times ( for some reason they don't take direct calls ) and received a generic message that someone would contact me... .a week later still no response! I am a new customer and have questions regarding my contract but clearly customer service is not a priority ; I would never recommend this company to anyone! '' On XX/XX/XXXX I received the following email from Sunlight : \" Thank you for providing your feedback and letting us know about this issue, XXXX. We set a high standard for ourselves and are truly sorry to hear that standard was not met in your interaction with us. Please get in touch with us on ( XXXX ) XXXX and we'd be happy to help you out. Regards, Sunlight Financial '' I called on XX/XX/XXXX, but was put on hold for an extended period of time and finally hung up. I sent them the following email instead on XX/XX/XXXX : I am writing this letter to express my serious concerns and dissatisfaction with the terms and conditions of the XXXX XXXX purchase agreement ( hereinafter, the \" Agreement '' ) that I entered into with Sunlight Financial on XX/XX/XXXX. As per the Agreement, I agreed to make payments for the first 17 months in the amount of {$150.00}, with the payment increasing to {$210.00} from the XXXX month onwards, unless a \" voluntary payment '' of {$11000.00} was paid by the expiration of the XXXX payment.\nUpon careful examination of the Agreement, I have identified two primary issues that require immediate attention and resolution : 1. Breach of Guarantee : During the negotiation of the Agreement, it was explicitly represented to me that the \" voluntary payment '' of {$11000.00} would be based on the amount of residential energy credit I was entitled to receive from the IRS. XXXX from XXXX XXXX ( I can't locate his last name but his email is XXXX ) was the sales representative who told me about the credit and assured me the credit was assured to be no less than {$11000.00}, forming the basis of my decision to proceed with the solar panel installation. However, to my disappointment, the total amount of residential credit I received from the IRS for the installed solar panels only amounted to {$7800.00}, significantly less than the guaranteed amount.\nThis significant discrepancy has put me in a financially compromising position, as the \" voluntary payment '' was contingent on receiving a specific amount of tax credit. I firmly believe that Sunlight Financial has failed to honor the guarantee, resulting in a breach of contract.\n\n2. Potential Illegality of Balloon Payment : I have become aware that the \" voluntary payment '' clause in the Agreement may constitute a balloon payment arrangement. This type of payment structure is governed by specific regulations under California statutory and case law. However, the contractual terms do not expressly refer to this as a balloon payment or provide the necessary disclosures as required by law. This raises concerns about the legality and transparency of the payment arrangement.\nI have been advised to seek legal counsel to verify the legality of this clause, and it is essential for Sunlight Financial to provide clarification and justification for the inclusion of such a payment provision in the Agreement.\n\nIn light of the above issues, I request that Sunlight Financial take the following actions to address and resolve the dispute : 1. Conduct an immediate investigation into the misrepresentation of the \" voluntary payment '' guarantee and provide a detailed explanation for the discrepancy between the assured amount and the actual residential energy credit received.\n2. Provide a written response confirming that the \" voluntary payment '' clause in the Agreement complies with all relevant laws and regulations pertaining to balloon payments in California. Include references to applicable stat\nutory and case law supporting the legality of the clause.\n\n3. Offer a fair and equitable resolution to this matter, considering the financial strain caused by the misrepresentation and potential illegality of the \" voluntary payment '' clause.\nI expect a prompt response within a reasonable timeframe from the date of receipt of this letter. Failure to address these issues satisfactorily may result in further legal action to protect my rights as a consumer under the laws of California.\n\nPlease acknowledge receipt of this dispute letter at your earliest convenience. You may reach me at XXXX or XXXX if you require any additional information or documentation.\nI trust that Sunlight Financial will treat this matter with the utmost seriousness and work towards an amicable resolution. Thank you for your attention to this matter.\nI received the following generic replay from Sunlight XXXX XX/XX/XXXX : Hello, Thank you for contacting Sunlight Financial 's Customer Support Team. We have created your case, Case Number : XXXX.

Their negligence in handling my case offered no fair resolution stating, We understand that you werent satisfied with the outcome of the service the merchant provided, but they have the right to receive payment for any services that were rendered. What are my rights as a consumer under the XXXX guidelines for not receiving the services that was promised and resulting in a medical condition?\nDid Bank of America even contact XXXX XXXX XXXX on behalf?\n\nAccording to Bank of America response, Based on the information above, there has been no error in the handling of your account.\n\nFrom the beginning, this dispute was mishandled professionally until the end. There was nominal communication from Bank of America even after I made my compliant with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The dispute was about quality of service I received during my stay at XXXX XXXX XXXX.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX I received a call from XXXX a representative from the BANK OF AMERICA executive office stating that they were working on the dispute. She gave me her office number XXXX. I explained my frustrations of agents dropping the ball. I never received a provisional credit upon the submission of my dispute. She responded any fees incurred we will be returned to you. It was the last time I had spoken to her until XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX no answer.\nXX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX no answer.\nXX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX and left a message to return my call to update me on the dispute.\nXX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX and was finally able to get her on the phone after many attempts. She informed me that Bank of American denied my dispute because I did not leave the resort. In addition, she stated, The lack of Wi-Fi and the bed bug situation was outside of the XXXX guidelines to dispute the quality of goods or services.\n\nAccording to XXXX XXXX Bank of America, recommendation was I should have left the resort. I was out of the country. My reservation was made a year in advance for this wedding. Who leaves a resort out of the country? Bank of America stated in their response Consumers should inquire about the merchants written refund or cancellation policy before making a purchase to ensure that the merchant will offer the flexibility he or she needs to dispute the quality of goods or services insinuating I am to blame for not inquiring about refund policies.\n\nFrom the beginning, Bank of America representative. Upon my initial call to Bank of America on XX/XX/XXXX, I made it clear to the representative that I was disputing the {$1500.00} that was not refunded. I explained I initially reserved two rooms and I canceled on which is why XXXX XXXX refunded {$1500.00}. However, even after explaining the two transactions after their research they denied the claim because of the merchant issued me a credit for the canceled room but the canceled room was in dispute. This was an error on behalf of Bank of America. Please note I never received any documentation or communication from Bank of America that the claim was denied. I never received Bank of America denial letter dated on XX/XX/XXXX. If there was in fact, an actual denial letter created why did Bank of America make their final decision on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus website. Ironically, their final decision posted on XX/XX/XXXX, the day I finally was able to get XXXX on the phone. I called XXXX multiple times after the dated letter ( this is the first time I am seeing this letter ) and left a message with no return calls which she apologized for her lack of communication. I had to call XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to learn my claim was denied. How was my claim was conducted without error?\n\nThe information enclosed by Bank of America is incorrect. I called back on XX/XX/XXXX not XX/XX/XXXX as mentioned in Bank of Americas response to check the status of the claim was informed it was denied and the reconsideration was submitted.\n\nThis is unfair. I utilize my card at this resort and they did not deliver on their services as promise. My credit for the canceled room was never relevant to my dispute and Bank of America continued to make it related. I lack communication while there and additionally suffered a medical issue after returning home. I will not believe my claim does not fall under XXXX dispute guidelines of quality of services delivered. According to Bank of America response, they closed this dispute on XX/XX/XXXX and it was opened two more times for reconsideration due to the credit that was issued for a canceled room which was not relevant to the dispute. This is been going on since XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nBank of America customer service agents and the executive level staff have proven they are an incompetent institution to serve my personal and my business financial needs. Bank of America leave me no option to but to seek legal services to address this matter and close my personal and business accounts.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX Re : Bank of America Dispute ( XX/XX/XXXX ) Account Number : XXXX ( XXXX XXXX by XXXX XXXX Account ) To Whom It May Concern : I am writing to convey my concerns for the lack of service I have endured regarding a transaction dispute that was submitted last month. I was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for wedding in XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX which payment was due a month before arrival. Originally, I had booked two rooms. I was taking an assistant with me but they could no longer accommodate so I canceled the room on XX/XX/XXXX, which left me one room that I was occupying. I received a refund for the cancelled room on XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nI arrived at the resort on XX/XX/XXXX a day before the scheduled wedding without the physical card due to me paying prior to my arrival. My Wi-Fi in my room was unsteady upon my arrival. The Wi-Fi controlled the camera equipment, TV, my cell phone, and the in-room phone. I called the front desk several times and complained. The next day I was unable to use my camera fully due to the lack of Wi-Fi.\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, several calls were made to the front desk with no resolution.\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, we could not call because the Wi-Fi controlled the in-room phone. I was not even able to call for room service for food.\n\nUpon leaving the resort on XX/XX/XXXX, I called the front desk and asked for a manager to be available upon my check-out. Magically, a technician arrived to my room to identify the problem. He removed the TV from the wall and went into the closet and I heard him say, XXXX XXXX I asked what the problem was and he responded, Its a faulty switch you would have never got the proper Wi-Fi.\n\nI went to check out and XXXX came to assist and informed me that he was manager in training. I expressed to him my frustrations of the Wi-Fi being corrected upon my discharge but corrected for the one checking in was unfair. He left and came back and offered me to waive my ground transportation fee of {$70.00}. I refused to take that offer. He came back with another offer of refunding {$270.00} I refused. I told him I was here for work and I could not properly deliver to my client due to the lack of Wi-Fi. He came back with XXXX the supervisor and the offer dropped to {$150.00} ( which was 10 % off the stay ) and that was her final offer. I refused and she stated someone from management would contact me to resolve this issue. No one from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) contacted me after I left XXXX.\n\nUpon my arrival back in the states, I started XXXX XXXX So much that I had to seek medical attention on XX/XX/XXXX ( day after leaving the resort ). I was diagnosed and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( pictures were uploaded of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ).\n\nI called Bank of America immediately to dispute the transaction. I informed the representative of all the information in this letter. I was clear on the dispute was for the {$1500.00} for the transaction that was not refunded because the representative informed me that there was refund. The claim was opened. I submitted all the documents on-line through the Bank of America email . There was no status anywhere of the dispute.\nI called on XX/XX/XXXX and informed the claim was closed because I did receive the {$1500.00} refund from the business. I had to explain the refunded transaction was not what was in dispute. She submitted a reconsideration during that phone call.\n\nAs of today XX/XX/XXXX, I still have not received any update on the dispute. I called Bank of America on XX/XX/XXXX for an update after trying since Friday, XX/XX/XXXX ( systems were down is what I was told ). The representative informed me that again the dispute was closed due to me getting the refund on XX/XX/XXXX. I asked for a XXXX and she told me the managers were all out and I should call tomorrow.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX spoke to XXXX and he assured me that the dispute was not closed and the reconsideration actually went through today. He documented the account thoroughly and I should submit the actual cancellation to Bank of America.\nI need a resolution as soon as possible. The lack of customer service and the inability to resolve my issue is very unprofessional. I need to hear from someone soon or I will be filing a complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau immediately.\nXX/XX/XXXX I spoke to XXXX ( Tennessee ) again to check the status of the dispute and was informed that it is still in review.

Chase Case Number : XXXX I am XXXX XXXX XXXX, and a XXXX in the University XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX College XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX and a long time resident in Texas.\n\nI.- The Incident : On XX/XX/2022 while on my summer XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX GA, for the XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX , and after collecting payments from customers, I drove to the Chase Branch in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX GA where I made a deposit to my checking account # XXXX, through the drive-through ATM, at around XXXXXXXX XXXX\n\nI inserted {$3600.00} USD in XXXX bills of different denominations, but the ATM stalled, gave me an error message and did not issue a receipt, nor returned my money. I panicked and immediately called My father via XXXX XXXX He told me to attempt another deposit of XXXX dlls to make sure there was a record I was there, and make sure the ATM would take it. I did and the deposit went through and provided a receipt. I also got out of my car and walked around so that the cameras would be able to see me and record me being there, so it would be easier for the bank to track the issue, timing and camera records.\nI went back the next morning of XX/XX/2022 to the Branch before they opened, and immediately spoke to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, Relationship Banker, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was very helpful, opened the case of the situation and reassured me that within 2-3 days Chase will contact me via e-mail with a resolution to my case, as they took this matters very seriously.\n\nII.- The Case Follow Up : On XX/XX/XXXX I boarded a cruise with my family and by then Chase had not provided any answer to my situation. By XX/XX/XXXX, when we returned to port, I had no e-mails about my case, so I called Chase Claims Department to enquire about my case, to find out to my surprise and shock that the claim had been denied, claiming that the money had not been found.\n\nI immediately called the branch with XXXX XXXX, who told me she couldnt help me more and that I had to follow through again with XXXXhase Customer Claims Department. I asked what would be the process in which Chase could check the security cameras, and I was advised that to do that, a Police Report needed to be opened.\n\nIII.- The In-Person Branch visit and Police Report : I decided to fly to XXXX with my father XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX to meet with the executives at the branch to follow up again on this case. We met with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, the branch manager, was not in town ). XXXX XXXX called again the Claims Department and requested to escalate it and open it again. She indicated that the ATM on the drive-thru, although is branded as Chase ATM , is serviced and managed by XXXX She advised us to file a police report in the county to aid the process.\nWe did under such advise and opened a Police Incident Report at the XXXX XXXX Police Department, on XX/XX/2022 under case number XXXX with XXXX XXXX, badge XXXX.\n\nIV.-The Appeal to the denied Case and contacts with Chase Executives XXXX We proceeded to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Marketing Director at Chase to request his support to better understand how to proceed with this case to recover the money I entrusted to Chases ATM. I have not been able to speak to XXXX XXXX, but only with his assistant, XXXX XXXX, nor he has replied to our emails.\nI have also tried to get the contact information of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, VP of multi branch, but the branch has declined to give me his contact information.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, I received a call from Chases Claims department indicating that the case had been re-opened and that they would be in touch via phone with us. I asked where could we communicate about this case via e-mail, but were told that this cases are only handled via phone, not e-mail.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX I called again to the claims department to enquire about my case as was told that it had been closed again and that to reopen it, I need to provide more details or evidence about my deposit.\nI have evidence of videos and pictures but they told me that they can only receive faxes and not emails. I have enquired about them checking the security footage but again they told me they can do it only if requested by the police which shocks me.\n\nV.- The Concern about deleted camera Footage I have a major concern about the length of time which camera footage is kept. In this case, since there is an Incident Claim, I want to make sure the cameras footage from XX/XX/2022 between XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX are NOT deleted, so they can serve to proof that I was there, inserted the money into the ATM but it failed to deposit it into my account and did not return it to me. I have been told that in order to have the footage reviewed, I have to have the Police department request it ( or be subpoenaed ) Why would we need to subpoenaed the cameras footage to have it reviewed?, shouldnt this be Chases standard procedure when a case like this is raised?\n\nVI.- Concern about closed case, again.\nOn XXXX XXXX, 2022 I called again for an update and was told that after elevating the case to an executive review, the case was closed and indicated that if we have additional information, CHASE may consider re-opening the case. I have already sent this information as a request to re-open the case and check with XXXX, who is the provider of the drive-through ATM at the XXXX branch XXXX for the missing money. We were shocked to find out from the branch today, after talking to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, that she is still waiting for the XXXX report, yet the case has been closed already twice.\n\nVII.- Request to re-open the case- XX/XX/2022 On XX/XX/2022, under the advise of Chases Claims department, my father went to a Chase Branch and requested them to send a fax to the Claims Department requesting to re-consider the case and open it again. I sent a very similar letter like this, requesting the case to be re-considered and XXXX to be requested to provide the deposit records of the drive-thru ATM, plus check camera footage of my deposit.\n\nI am deeply concerned with the way CHASE has handled the communication of this case The lack of written ( email ) communication is very concerning to me.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, I called XXXXhase claims department and was told that the company had made a mistake not crediting my account immediately after placing my complaint and that they would credit me and continue the investigation. This same day, another person from the claims department called me to tell me that the case had be closed again denying it. I recorded the conversation where they indicated the mistake they made and will attach it in this complaint.\nTo this day we have only received a regular mailed letter from XX/XX/XXXX when they initially denied the claim and no other written communication", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "bank_account", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing an account", "closing": "Closing an account", "opening": "Opening an account", "charged_by_another_company": "Problem with a lender or other company charging your account", "low_funds": "Problem caused by your funds being low"}, "label": "managing", "src": "cfpb_issue_bank_account"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/5919312", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/ddd02b24178ced51e4ad", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6964, "company": "JPMORGAN CHASE & CO.", "date_received": "2022-08-26", "product_raw": "Checking or savings account", "issue_raw": "Managing an account", "sub_issue_raw": "Problem using a debit or ATM card", "text_sha256": "ddd02b24178ced51e4ad4d22204b15dffaade005bff57334877a7075c6c27c83", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Back in XXXX XXXX XXXX I entered into a purchase agreement to buy a new home from XXXX XXXX . At the time they were offering to pay XXXX towards my closing cost but I had to use there preferred lender which turns out is XXXX Mortgage XXXX ( which is a front for Loan Depot XXXX ). When I inquired about the rate I was quoted XXXX %. At the same time I called my brother in law who also does mortgages and he said that was about the same rate he could get for me. Since they were offering to pay XXXX toward my closing cost I thought It would be a good idea to stay with who they recommended. As the house was being built I did not think too much about the financing since we had already discussed it and at the time they were offering a good program. At the beginning of XXXX I was contacted by XXXX Mortgage to finalize the mortgage part of my home purchase. They asked me to provide some documentation to finalize everything, which I did promptly, and then they said I should lock in the rate. I told them to lock in the rate assuming it was going to be close to where we were before, or at least competitive. This was not the case. They locked me in at XXXXX % which was much higher than what we were talking about back in XXXX . I understand the rates got a little worse but I did not think it was that much higher. It took me a couple days to inquire about rates with my brother in law and he told me he could get me XXXX %. I felt that I was locked in because if I would use a different lender I would not get the XXXX credit, but then I worked the numbers and even without XXXX it would be a much better deal for me to go with a different lender. So on XXXX I contacted XXXX and XXXX Mortgage and told her that my brother in law could do XXXX and I wanted to know if they could match the rate. XXXX said she would need to check with a XXXX . I checked back with her the next day on the XXXX and she said she is still checking, on the XXXX she said she is waiting with baited breath. Then on the XXXX I got an email from XXXX from XXXX homes threatening me that if we dont close on time they will charge me XXXX day if we go past the closing date. At the same time I got an email from XXXX XXXX with XXXX homes ( subject line : Potential Default ) taking it one step further and telling me my earnest money of XXXX will be forfeited and it is too late in the process to change lenders! All this without even knowing if there preferred lender will match the rate. On XXXX I received an email from XXXX with XXXX Mortgage saying that she still does not know if they can change the rate but if they can not change the rate I could take the XXXX that they were giving me and buy the rate down to XXXX ( which is still higher than I could get with my brother in law ). After continued follow up it was not until the XXXX that I was notified that XXXX Mortgage could not match the XXXX going rate. About the same time I was notified by XXXX from XXXX homes that if my brother in law could still meet the XXXX closing date that they would let me switch lenders. I talked to my brother in law and with the XXXX earnest money and XXXX day fee on the line he did not want to commit to a 15 day closing, he said that was an unrealistic time frame. Bottom line I feel they lured me in with a good rate and the XXXX closing cost then they wait until late in the process to spring on me the above market interest rate and then threaten me with keeping my XXXX plus charge me XXXX per day. I know for a fact this is not ethical and I can not see how this can be legal! Now I have been notified that the XXXX they are giving me has been reduced to XXXX . They told me they are moved XXXX of their fees ( title settlement fee XXXX to a fee paid by the seller to get around at TRID compliance issue. I told them that is not my issue and I want to see the XXXX seller credit that I was told I would get if I used there preferred lender ( and that was disclosed to me on my loan estimate. ) I then received a XXXX XXXX statement from their closing agent ( Carefree title ) showing the XXXX seller credit. I told them that I wanted the closing disclosure statement to reflect the XXXX seller credit and the closing agent told me they can not do that. I am assuming the reason they can not do that is because its not legal!

The application was sent back by Hyundai because it was missing my co-signer 's signature, which we procured and sent the app back in XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nSince XX/XX/XXXX, my account status has read : \" We've started the process and are currently waiting to receive the vehicle 's title from your previous state. Please allow 3-4 weeks for the title to be received. Upon receipt of the title, we will send the required documentation to your new state within ten ( 10 ) business days. This entire process can take 4-6 weeks to complete. '' It has now been over 7 months with no changes or updates to the situation. 7 months.\n\nI have called Hyundai Motor Finance every week for the last 5 months, sometimes 2-3 times a week, and Hyundai reps have not been able to : 1 ) identify the issue in the delay 2 ) have not ever, EVER gotten back to me with updated information even though every supervisor says they will, and 3 ) Have not done their due diligence with XXXX XXXXXXXX to find out what is going on Every rep is surprised to hear the story, tells me they don't know how to help, and sends me to a supervisor. The supervisors then tell me they will either 1 ) look into this further and get back to me or 2 ) escalate the case. Neither has happened or done anything for my situation even if it has happened internally.\n\nI have nothing on my end I am able to do to fix the process, it is out of my hands and Hyundai is refusing responsibility for this even though every supervisor has admitted that they have never seen a case like this before.\n\nOnly last month, XX/XX/XXXX, after I spoke to several reps and supervisors for three days in a row, did someone finally admit to me there was a mistake made by Hyundai on their application and that is why it was rejected. He made sure it resent. This phone call took place on XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, my driving pass with the state of XXXX expired and the XXXX XXXX informed me I am not eligible for anymore, there are no exceptions.

However, they have yet to XXXX ) contact me, 2 ) inform me who my case manager is.

And I can not get a hold of anyone without starting from the beginning with reps who then transfer me to supervisors who then tell me they will solve it and hang up leaving me with nothing.\n\nI am XXXX- I have work, I have doctor 's appointments, I am a XXXX I can not function without my car. I explained this to a supervisor last week ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and yesterday ( XX/XX/XXXX ). Yesterday, XXXX, the supervisor, assured me he would find out why it has been 8 months and nothing has happened. He said 8 months is way too long and that he will be sure to escalate the case, that he would try and help me get a car rental. He told me 3 different times on our phone call he will solve the issue by end of day and get back to me. I never heard back.\n\nToday ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I called again and the supervisor made me start from the beginning. He kept saying \" The XXXX has not explained anything to us, they just keep rejecting our application so we keep re-submitting.

I informed him that he was, at that point, the XXXX or XXXX supervisor I have spoken to in the last three months and that I just need help getting a car to use while Hyundai sorts this out. I told him what XXXX had told me yesterday about getting a rental.\n\nHe ignored what I was told and said they can not do anything to help me and it is my job to contact the DMV. When I told him that only yesterday HMF said it was an internal mistake they needed to rectify AND that I can not contact XXXX XXXX as a customer because they closed their phone lines over a year ago, he dismissed me and transferred to customer affairs.

Paypal denied my first claim just XXXX minutes after I submitted it, saying that I authorized the payments.\n\nI spent the next several days going back and forth, and I had to battle each charge separately and file everything twice, as paypal considered it as XXXX separate purchases.\n\nI got the tracking info from the post office on XX/XX/XXXX, including an email from the local postmaster, and a pic of the package, and submitted it immediately to paypal.\n\nPaypal informed me that they would review the info and issue a decision is just a few days. later extended to XX/XX/XXXX, and said they would give the seller a chance to submit info. The website I bought from is still active, but the website that billed me is no longer active, so the scammers likely switched to another account. Paypal hasn't replied to my requests that they refund the money.\n\nAnd now I have learned that paypal does this regularly, as part of their business model, and instead of honoring their money back protection guarantee, they force consumers to go into small claims court to receice money back. I'm XXXX XXXX XXXX, in poor health, unable to walk long distances, and because they have added a prohibition against class actions, and insist on either arbitration or small claims court to acheive satisfaction, there consumer protections are essentially a fraud. It will be an excessive burden for me, and likely most consumers. They profit from every transaction, and don't want to return even the {$150.00} total they have charged me. They also told me that the charges would be removed until this was settled, but the charges remain.\n\nSince paypal profitted, they are actually aiding and abetting the criminals by letting the seller submit fake tracking info, and having paypal willfully, knowlingly accept it without checking. They forced XXXX to spend hours trying to get the info from the post office. Paypal is detrimentally relying on the fact that the post office doesn't generally give out tracking info to anyone but the adressee.But I was able to show the postmaster that paypal had me listed as the recipient, so showed that fraud was occurring", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "money_transfer", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/8689901", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/53d482b529f052061489", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4291, "company": "Paypal Holdings, Inc", "date_received": "2024-04-03", "product_raw": "Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service", "issue_raw": "Unauthorized transactions or other transaction problem", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "53d482b529f05206148963251e208c418c033347dfd8b0414cef722adb397a4a", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I applied for a Personal Unsecured Loan with First Tech Federal Credit Union on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$5000.00} under installment of {$130.00} per month for forty-eight ( 48 ) months, due date on the XXXX of the month before the closing date of the XXXX of the following month per approval by First Tech Federal CU Representative Customer Service agreement to avoid a late fee and past due on installment payments.

The dispute was reverse despite having submitted evidence that supports my claim. I helped my brother and partner, XXXX XXXX, with his home improvement renovations at his rental property by submitting a {$4000.00} payment to a XXXX using my Apple credit card, but XXXX XXXX was victim of fraud.\nI provided expert testimony, the contract, inspection report, and an inspection letter giving a direct comparison to the sales contract, it explains in detail line-by-line what the merchant did not finish or complete correctly, emails, lawsuit, counterclaim, third-party complaint, police report, litigation files explaining all the violations and the fraudulent service to the courts, pictures, and a XXXX XXXX link showing video recordings XXXX a background that XXXX XXXX got from public sources right after he found out everything after the facts, it shows that XXXX XXXX the contractor has a long history of criminal record for fencing and stealing, and any other documentation supporting.\nRegarding the merchants response, I can say that the cancellation and refund policy was not disclosed at the time of sale. Not knowing any better my brother entered a contract that did not comply with New Jersey Home Improvement contract regulations NJAC13:45A-16. The merchant falsely proclaimed a breach of contract and tried to induce XXXX XXXX to remove the disputes. Otherwise stated in the supposed breach of contract he would put a lien on the property which did not happen since work was not completed or performed. The merchant keeps insisting my brother breached the contract when the detailed description of events document in the litigation document sent by my brothers attorney explained XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX failed to properly complete the home improvements pursuant to industry standards ; failed to provide services as required by the contract ; made false representations to my brother ; and violated the Consumer Fraud Act and Home Improvement Act as more fully detailed in the document. Merchant estates my brother received the expected goods/services or encountered. As shown in the inspection report and as stated in the inspector letter drafted by a licensed home inspector, he did not receive such goods/services. As a result, he requested full reimbursement of the amount paid. As stated by my brothers attorney, \" By engaging in the above conduct, XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX unconscionable commercial practice of deception, fraud, and falsity or misrepresentation in connection with the sale of the service and goods in that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX made misrepresentations of the facts, concealed facts, suppressed facts, and excluded facts to effectuate the sale of the service and goods to my brother. '' In the emails you can see that as soon as my brother questioned the merchant about the progress of the work ( email response sent XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and advised the merchant that he would not have to pay him in full when the work was not yet completed ( email response sent on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ), the merchant realized that the scam was over. The merchant tried to have my brother into a mutual release and settlement agreement and wanted my brother to pay him an additional {$8500.00} under the guise that he would forgive a remaining balance of {$22000.00} ( email sent from merchant on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ). Here is when my brother was convinced, he was the victim of fraud. My brother, not knowing any better, believed he owed him money but when he visited the property on XX/XX/XXXX, and confirmed the merchant did not have anything completed and did damages. He immediately took all steps necessary to mitigate his damages and report his unlawful activity to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Consumer Affairs which I am also attaching to the email showing he is not licensed. XXXX, the contractor, is well aware that the home improvements were not fully completed. Despite this, he demanded payment from my brother and as my brothers attorney mentioned, Said demands are in violation. My brother have already contacted XXXX XXXX Co regarding this matter, but he is not reimbursing any funds, you can see this in the email, the evidence was sent to XXXX and is going to be included in this complaint, the reimbursement is a fair and reasonable course of action in this situation. You can also read the tenant 's letters ; they are witnesses to what occurred. Once my brother refuted the merchant about not paying him more money when he demanded the merchant himself stated he did not wish to work with him anymore ( email response sent on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and that he would move forward with what he needed to do for the situation. Merchant mentioned that \" a breach entitles him to the full contract amount. '' when no job was completed. The merchant failed to provide the service when he left the job unfinished and unsafe. He did not know how to orchestrate the job. He proclaimed maliciously to having completed the job. The merchant contacted my brother by email on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and he responded on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, requesting him to resolve the claim and asking for reimbursement. My brother also solicited specific information regarding what was purchased, and copies of all documentation about these transactions including invoices and the warranties. My brother officially terminated him from the job and let him know about the damage he caused and that he left the work project incomplete. The merchant responded dishonestly by attaching a breach of contract that he drafted himself and falsely claiming he was going to put a lien on the property and suggesting my brother to release the disputes otherwise he will have to assume the consequences. My brother did not receive any credit slip or chargeback approval letter from the merchant to prove they agree he is due credit for this {$4000.00} charge. Documentation that supports my position has already been submitted to the email address XXXX Please, note that Apple Credit Card was utilized as part of a more significant payment made to XXXX XXXX XXXX My brother paid the total cost upfront as per the balance of the contract. The job the merchant started is not finished, and he did not provide the service they agreed upon in the contract. XXXX did nothing correctly at my XXXX house and didn't repair things.\n\nI am going to include XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX dispute results in which the provisional credit issued to the account is now permanent.

Specifically, I would like to highlight their inability to share information with accuracy and communicating in an expeditious and factual manner that enables the mortgagee to make informed decisions. Please see the timeline of events below : XX/XX/XXXX Contacted CMG to enroll in the COVID-19 Mortgage Forbearance Program due to significantly reduced income as a result of the pandemic. Over the phone we were advised that we could enroll without any paperwork over the phone for a period of 12 months with the option to put the years payments on the back of the loan with a partial claim.\n\nXXXX XXXX With this assurance we were able to breathe a bit and checked back in to confirm if there was anything needed of us in preparation with the year ending in Q3/Q4. It was our plan to avoid any surprises and plan ahead since this was unchartered territory. A representative advised us that we would automatically be eligible for the partial claim option as it is on the Servicer to comply with FHA in what is offered to the mortgagee.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX XXXX auto and homeowners insurance from XXXX to XXXX, due to better rates. Provided XXXX with mailing address for CMG in order to facilitate payment of annual homeowners premium.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX Called CMG to confirm expiration of existing forbearance and was advised we needed to complete the loan modification to be considered for the partial claim and nothing else was available to extend the forbearance even with the new pending legislation under the new Biden Administration. Therefore we proceeded accordingly with completing the loan modification package.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX Learned from a third party, XXXX XXXX XXXX that our homeowners policy expired on Friday, XX/XX/XXXX due to none payment of the policy premium. We immediately contacted CMG and XXXX for clarity. XXXX indicated they sent correspondence to CMG in XXXX and throughout Q1 XXXX to avoid a lapse and never received any response back. CMG indicated they never received any information at the XXXX XXXX address which is what was provided in XX/XX/XXXX to the mortgagee. At this time, the CMG representative provided me with an email address to send the new homeowners policy ( as though it would be easy to get new insurance given the lapse and having a recent claim on file ). It was extremely troubling having learned we were without homeowners insurance following the extreme freeze which had recently occurred in the XXXX area.\n\nThere were subsequent calls to CMG to share our disdain and disappointment for placing us in this position. XXXX with CMG, ID # XXXX handled the bulk of the call, took notes and called back to advise us there was nothing to be done to recover the expired homeowners policy with XXXX.\n\nOur quest began to shop for homeowners insurance, now with two negatives : Lapsed coverage, Potential increased/higher premium, and Current/recent homeowners claim In desperation we were only able to obtain a policy which nearly doubled our annual premium with our last insurer from {$1600.00} to {$3300.00} with XXXX XXXX. There were several nos before we got this latest coverage. In fear this policy would also lapse from non-payment by CMG, I made sure to email XXXX as advised from my last call with a CMG representative on XX/XX/XXXX. Confirmation was received on XX/XX/XXXX via email that the new policy information had been received and would be processed.\n\nAs a follow-up measure, I contacted CMG once more on XX/XX/XXXX to see what the status was on processing the new policy premium with XXXX Insurance. Upon calling, I was advised to submit the bill for the new policy to a third-party website as a surefire way that payment would be prompt. I was puzzled since I was under the impression the email and confirmation would be sufficient. As advised, I uploaded the documentation as requested to this new site. It is the inconsistencies with information that is shared with mortgagees that contributes to the continued frustration with CMG.\n\nOn a separate issue surrounding the COVID-19 Mortgage Forbearance Program, we called on XX/XX/XXXX and was advised at this time that CMG was now offering the option to extend our existing forbearance an additional 6-months which would total the allowed 18-months and expire on XX/XX/XXXX at which time the first mortgage payment would be due. The CMG representative indicated this option only opened up as of XX/XX/XXXX. Since our financial situation hadnt yet improved we requested for the CMG representative to proceed with this setup over the phone and to disregard the loan modification process which was recently initiated.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX we inquired on another issue regarding the handling of the shortage on the account but continued to be routed to the loss mitigation group. While in this maze of calls, we inquired about the status of the 6-month extension for the existing forbearance. At this time, we learned that in fact the additional 6-months hadnt been added as confirmed earlier that month. In fact, the CMG representative indicated that the 6-month forbearance could not be added until the loan modification was cleared/removed from the account. We were under the impression that these things had been addressed in their systems internally. Following a lengthy phone call and extended wait times, we were assured that all had been updated as the other CMG representative was not correct in how the forbearance was entered on XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nOn the morning of XX/XX/XXXX in the 9 oclock hour we contacted CMG once again to gain more clarity as to what exactly was taking place with our mortgage account. After speaking with XXXX XXXX for over an hour in a half, we further learned the following : Mortgagees are not allowed a term of an additional 6-months forbearance, only 3 months ; Again it appears the additional extended forbearance was still not placed correctly on the mortgage account ; It was no guarantee that we would be eligible for the partial claim since their records showed we were 13 months outstanding and it was up to underwriting to review ; and We needed to check back on XX/XX/XXXX to be sure the disaster template was updated on the mortgage account by loss mitigation to the COVID-19 Mortgage Forbearance Program With an anxious feeling we had been given the run around with CMG and the level of incompetence with the many representatives and inconsistencies with the information provided, we requested to have a supervisor call us. As of the writing of this complaint the supposed request which is standard 24-48 hours timeframe to hear back from a supervisor has yet to happen.\n\nOur next steps for reprisal and accuracy of the information provided to us as FHA mortgagees prompted a call to FHA. On the two occasions we called, XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, FHA advised us differently than what CMG advised. Attached are the concerns which were raised and the information from FHA. We have no other choice at this point but to seek help in ensuring our home is secure and sound as our primary residence following the end of the COVID-19 Forbearance Mortgage Program.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "mortgage", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"payment_process": "Trouble during payment process", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay mortgage", "applying": "Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage", "closing": "Closing on a mortgage"}, "label": "struggling_to_pay", "src": "cfpb_issue_mortgage"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/4262036", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/afd83a79ef94d608bb39", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 7366, "company": "CMG MORTGAGE, INC", "date_received": "2021-04-01", "product_raw": "Mortgage", "issue_raw": "Struggling to pay mortgage", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "afd83a79ef94d608bb39581b547db988fbce416af6ea7fcfab4de01c3612d424", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "This morning, I saw unauthorized inquiries on my credit report, and I dont understand why theyre there.

I replied with \" I am not sure what that all means but can you now confirm you have all of the details you need? As I mentioned, I have sent all of the information 4 times now. I did not reach out till XX/XX/XXXX originally with this information, then again on XX/XX/XXXX, followed by the same request on XX/XX/XXXX and yet again this morning. '' XX/XX/XXXX : I called HSBC USA to follow up on this matter. I was on the phone with them for an hour and ended up talking to a virtual assistant in another country who was chatting with XXXX XXXX XXXX about all of the emails she or no one else had looked at where I provided all of the requested information. XXXX then replies to my email with \" I have responded to the representative you speak with last time. Please see attached email and request. '' Although, nothing was attached to the email. After speaking to a manger of the call center, we finally got XXXX to figure out how to attach a letter to an email ( attached ). I took the letter to the DMV and was told it will work if it is notarized and an original is submitted.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX : Sent email to XXXX stating that the DMV needs a notarized document and that the year of the vehicle was wrong ( XXXX instead of XXXX ). I received a reply from XXXX XXXX XXXX stating \" Our No interest letter does not require signature or notarization. '' I took this to the DMV and was given form REG 166 and told that HSBC will need to fill out, notarize and send me the original document. I pre-filled out REG 166 with my information and the vehicle information and sent it to XXXX. 2 hours later, I receive an email from XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) stating : \" HSBC is required by law to retain account records for 7-years. I understand your concerns were addressed with our Customer Service team on XX/XX/XXXX. Enclosed is a copy of the letter sent to you on XX/XX/XXXX in response to your request for a lien release. Im sorry for any inconvenience you may have experienced. Since there is no record of bank error, we respectfully decline your request for compensation. '' I replied : \" My concerns have not been addressed and I am not sure exactly what prompted your email as I sent the below message to your titles team 2 hours ago. No letter was sent to me on XX/XX/XXXX, rather this letter was pre-dated, the titles team doesnt know how to attach a file to an email or you have the wrong information. It is my understanding that HSBC US and HSBC BANK XXXX XXXX are one of the same origination at this point and HSBC BANK XXXX XXXX is still a lien holder on my title. I continue to be talked to and sent messages that are only circular arguments that make no sense. The DMV will only accept a notarized document ; your no interest letter may not require notarization but the DMV has their own, which coincidently, needs to be notarized. Please see attached for REG 166 ( that I have pre-filed with the correct vehicle information ), fill out section 3 on behalf of HSBC BK XXXX XXXX have the form notarized and mail me the original. If you can not view the pdf attachment, you can find the form here : XXXX XXXX XXXX '' I am getting nowhere with this and need someone above HSBC and their internal teams to get a resolution here. At this point I feel that HSBC is abusing their power over the situation to the point of harassment ( a behavior which is intended to trouble or annoy someone, for example repeated attacks on them or attempts to cause them problems ) and insanity ( doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results ). Along with all of the email exchanges, I have had multiple phone calls ( that all went nowhere ) and made multiple trips to the DMV to try to get this taken care of. I am not sure what else I can do as XXXX DMV is requiring a notarized document and HSBC is refusing to release the title or notarize the document.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "vehicle_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing the loan or lease", "end_of_loan": "Problems at the end of the loan or lease", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan or lease", "repossession": "Repossession"}, "label": "end_of_loan", "src": "cfpb_issue_vehicle_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/7142368", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/b62fef6500021634413f", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6386, "company": "HSBC NORTH AMERICA HOLDINGS INC.", "date_received": "2023-06-20", "product_raw": "Vehicle loan or lease", "issue_raw": "Problems at the end of the loan or lease", "sub_issue_raw": "Unable to receive car title or other problem after the loan is paid off", "text_sha256": "b62fef6500021634413feb34ecb12712fcc5f2786fb818dab98d051c00f583f3", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "For some back story, when on vacation in XXXX in XX/XX/, I was XXXX and had my phone stolen.

Then my father had a bad side effect of the vaccine which added additional costs medication {$2000.00} out of pocket every month health for an XXXX man and XXXX wife my mother and father. So I had 90 days to find a mortgage apply qualify approve and close all before the XXXX stay on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX Sheriff sale. With no time to spare we settled on Monday, XXXX the XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX I was referred to Movement Mortgage, by XXXX XXXX I believe he is the owner of the franchise Movement is a bank, broker, and lender. XXXX started the process immediately however I was well prepared with my documents so in no time we progressed quickly. By the third of XXXX, a woman by the name of XXXX had called me introducing herself as the Title company and what she said was textbook straightforward, she said she was going to pull the title Check for liens, then prepare a pre-title report. and distribute one to me as the buyer and one to my parents as the seller. XXXX said that she would call me back as so as the report was done so we could review then make decisions on it validation and correctness. A month passed and the mortgage loan assistant XXXX called me and said that we would have to raise the mortgage amount because of tax liens and let it as that. So I request a copy of the pre-title report promised to the seller and buyer a month prior. I did not receive the report nor did my parents and no call came either from XXXX. XXXX called me and asked if I knew anything about a second mortgage so I told her I would look into it and I asked for a list of all the liens that were changing the purchase price from {$300.00} to {$390000.00}. XXXX came and went still my request to know what I was paying for was denied. I asked XXXX XXXX XXXX while I was totally burdened with work to finish I started to complain about a {$4100.00} Price tag for Title and she has not delivered as promised, The owner XXXX was no help he would yell, and raise his voice if I didn't produce documents fast enough yet my only request was for the title company and mortgage company to full disclose important information regarding the loan amount that now jumped to {$390.00} plus {$18000.00} due at closing. Well, XXXX finished out and underwriting gave the green to close on Thursday Monday was the day to settle. On Friday I spoke with the loan Assistant XXXX and I said I demand that you give me the pre-title report I want to see what's going on The amount was {$73000.00} that I had requested and taken out on loan to pay back and still had no idea what I was paying for! XXXX the loan assistant told me that she would send the liens to my email address on Friday afternoon which she lied to me about. Still Monday morning now the day of settlement The title agent emails and states that if the liens are not paid we will Lose the house to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX state the same and tell me not to worry about the liens I can come back to them later. Now it's XXXX the XXXX 2 months 3 weeks had passed from the original conversation that I had when XXXX called from Clear to close the Settlement company in XXXX Pa when she informed me of the procedure and protocols it's the law to disclose the findings of the titile company that I had to Pay {$4100.00} because no matter how many times I said I didn't want the additional owner insurance they refused to take that off the settlement sheet after numerous request. {$1200.00} The corporate office in South Carolina did my underwritten and XXXX was the processor. Movement Mortgage had already charged me a percentage for the loan amount underwritten was include however I was billed {$990.00} regardless of how many times I asked to have that removed, I finally received the liens 5 of them via email at XXXX ; XXXX just XXXX minutes before the title clerk arrived. The last lien for XXXX XXXX of {$48000.00} was received XXXX hours after the settlement had ended Via email. Monday afternoon I asked XXXX if my attorney had picked XXXX for the title because he was the only one I gave permission to hire a title company complaining that she fail it disclose {$78000.00} in Liens to myself and both my parents we were held hostage we had no rights what so ever. and we did not receive due and timely notice The {$48000.00} second and all the liens would have come off if we had the opportunity to address them with the bankruptcy attorney because in XXXX my parents sold a commercial building that had sold with a larger surplus! At The XXXX XXXX sheriff 's office in XX/XX/XXXX Im also complain that the surplus was taken no monies were given to my parents I was the under bidder it sold for {$330000.00} with {$210000.00} covering all the liens secured and seconds the {$48000.00} XXXX XXXX is mentioned in XXXX XXXX as {$000.00} on line XXXX and line XXXX of XXXX XXXX my parents are in.

XXXX XXXX said and I quote '' we were worried that your parents and you were going to lose the house by sheriff sale if we would have given you the lien information. You can address that later. That is a poor justifcation for these 3 working together all the time and they have abused 2 elderly adults and have refused us our rite to disclose information and give us the due process of the law acted discriminatly.I believe since the ability to address {$71000.00} in liens was never given to use myself and parent 's I believe the three who worked together and held us up giving us no choice but to pay or lose the house, they should be made responsible to pay all the liens for taking part in something so unethical.

The payments were set up to be paid with his credit card. Everything was going along fine. His last payment was made in XX/XX/XXXX. At that time Naveint changed their terms and no longer take credit cards to be set up as automatic form of payment, but we were never informed of this. Also at that time my son had been diagnosed with a debilitating medical situation and has not been able to work. He lost his job and still is unemployed and in therapy. We called Navient in XX/XX/XXXX to see if we could postpone payments until he is able to get back to normal life. We were told they can not do anything until the loans have fallen three months behind. That being said, since he now feels better, he called on Friday XX/XX/XXXX to try to work something out, since he received a letter that Navient will start litigation process. He was told that they could n't help in any way. He had a financial savvy friend with him who was speaking to Navient with my son.

He asked for a postponement till XX/XX/XXXX. They would not budge. They demanded his banking information and said that they will need a payment of the {$110.00} by XX/XX/XXXX. Given our past experience with them, my son and I do not trust them to have any sort of banking info. If you look at the previous complaint from XX/XX/XXXX you will see where they outright lied about an agreement they made then raised the monthly payment.

Who in their right mind would agree to that??!!! I believe it 's unethical. His sister who co-signed the loan with her brother way back when, is willing to send in one month payment but will not do so without a written agreement as proof. She has also received a notice for litigation. All we are asking for is proof that they will follow thru with what they say, and possibly postpone till XX/XX/XXXX.

This was my first house and I was not aware of all the things that went into purchasing a home. A friend of mine had a realtor they recommended and so from that suggestion, I gave her a call. I found her to be pleasant and she seemed very helpful. She works often with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and that is who she chose to handle my loan.\nXXXX began to collect bank statements, run my credit, the works. What I didnt know, was they would have me pay off credit cards in order to get approved for the loan, money I was looking to put down on my house. There were so many things I had to pay off before I could qualify. Now this is fine, but this is the start of information they did not disclose to me. XXXX disclosed information in parts, to where it would seem I had no choice but to move forward with their recommendation. They prepared my loan and shipped it off to the highest bidder. I know this is now part of the business now, but I feel someone should have disclosed to me that I had more options than what they presented. I was approved for the loan and I have been the happy homeowner of my house for the past year and 6 months.\nSince then, Dovenmuehle has picked up my loan from XXXX and I have continued making my regular monthly payments, never late I might add. On XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX, I received a letter from Dovenmuehle staying they have not received proof of hazard insurance and they have purchased a policy to protect their interest on the property. It also advised that if I had purchased a hazard insurance policy that they would cancel the policy they obtained. This letter came as a surprise to me. During the process of getting approval for the initial loan, I was required to provide a quote to XXXX of the homeowners insurance that I was wanting to use for my home. I provided such quote from XXXX and was under the impression that the policy was purchased and was in effect for the past year and six months. Still confused, I contacted Dovenmuehle, the rep I spoke with stated that there was no hazard insurance on the property. I asked how this could be possible as I provided XXXX information when I had closed on the loan and they stated that a policy was never purchased. I asked how it was possible that a year has gone by without anyone noticing and the rep was speechless at this point. She disclosed that audits get done every XXXX and advised that one was never done on this account and stated, we forgot about you. Now, to my understanding, they are required by law to audits. Furthermore, I am not sure how I was able to close on the loan when a homeowners policy was never purchased, also a requirement to my knowledge. I never once received one email, one phone call, or letter from Dovenmuehle advising me of not having hazard insurance until XXXX of XXXX, more than 1 year later.\nThis began the process of me searching for answers. I pulled out my closing documents and saw that it spells out word for word in the breakdown I was being charged {$560.00} for Homeowners Insurance Premium ( 12 mo. ) to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and the next line indicates {$140.00} also for Homeowners Insurance {$47.00} per month for 3 mo. Where did this money go if it did not go to a homeowners insurance policy? I also pulled all my monthly mortgage statements to review. Every month for the past year, according to my statements, {$230.00} has been allotted for Escrow ( taxes and insurance ) but I am not sure where that money has gone if no insurance policy was ever purchased.\nSince this homeowners policy was purchased by Dovenmuehle, as of XX/XX/XXXX, I am being required to pay an additional $ 200+ a month of back-payment because they advised I must pay for not having insurance on my home for 14 months. What happened to the money that was allotted for Escrow over that past 14 months? Where did that money go?\nI have been told by XXXX as well as Dovenmuehle, which this almost never happens. Ok great, but I am still stuck with paying extra each month until I meet the forced insurance, which is around {$1500.00} and some change. Either way I am still confused on how I got into this position. I have never missed a payment I have never been late on anything. Why did I not have insurance? How did my account get out of underwriting with no insurance? What would have happened if something catastrophic would have happened to the house?\nAround XXXX or XXXX, I received a call from XXXX XXXX from XXXX about refinancing my loan. I was familiar with XXXX, as he was the one who handled all the documents and closing when I initially received my loan from XXXX.\nNow this is where things get interesting with XXXX In one of the calls I received from XXXX, I asked him what happened to my homeowners insurance, he advised he had no idea but would investigate the matter and get back to me with some answers. This would go on for about three weeks of him getting answers. XXXX never explained what had happened but advised that he would get my money reimbursed. He told me that he would send me a check in the amount of {$560.00}. I mentioned to XXXX how I had to pay more now for my mortgage because there was no hazard insurance on the house for the last year, but he still seemed more interested in still having me refinancing with XXXX. He then continued to call me every other day to get me to refinance my home, I quit answering my phone and to date, I never received that promised check.\nI was still confused as to where my money had gone and decided to contact the title company, XXXX XXXX. I spoke with XXXX XXXX and she said she would look at the information for me. Right off the bat, she noticed that XXXX never sent my check for {$560.00} anywhere and it sat. She investigated things a little further and noticed that the original breakdown of my mortgage was off. States that whoever put the numbers together for me did not have enough coming out for a few things.\nNow this may explain why I am in the hole, but I am just not sure anymore. I dont know who is telling me the truth about what happened. Did XXXX notice this and just not tell me? I dont know, but he never brought this to my attention. I dont find any of this to be fair, I got the short end of the stick. I turned in every document they asked me for, I paid off debt they asked to pay before closing, I took XXXXs and Dovenmuehles advice, and it has not been in my best interest. I did my part ; I have never missed and payment and still have not missed a payment despite having to pay {$200.00} more each month because of XXXX/Dovenmuehle mistake. I can honestly say is has been a struggle to come up with the extra {$200.00} a month. Its XXXX near been impossible with the COVID-19 going around. I am down XXXX jobs, but still holding up my end of the deal. I do not feel XXXX and Dovenmuehle treated me fairly in this matter and frankly, no one seems to care.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "mortgage", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"payment_process": "Trouble during payment process", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay mortgage", "applying": "Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage", "closing": "Closing on a mortgage"}, "label": "payment_process", "src": "cfpb_issue_mortgage"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3663192", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/b87de57447e15e3a86a1", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6934, "company": "Dovenmuehle Mortgage, Inc.", "date_received": "2020-05-21", "product_raw": "Mortgage", "issue_raw": "Trouble during payment process", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "b87de57447e15e3a86a192bea72f518866ac1e6cc9f62340b752df7a3792236e", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "XXXX XXXX from Recovery Solutions Groups LLC. is trying to collect for a debt, which # 1.

The XXXX had an extended warranty that we had purchased along with the vehicle in XXXX of the previous year. On XX/XX/2020, I contacted the dealership, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, to inquire about how we would receive a refund for this extended warranty. I was sent the required paperwork, filled it out and returned it on the same day. I was informed at that time that the refund would take approximately 60-90 days to reach us.\n\nAfter 90 days had come and gone, I first called the issuer of the warranty to inquire about the status of the refund. They informed me that they had sent the refund to Hyundai Motor Finance at the beginning of XXXX, before I had ever even requested it. I then called the dealership back to ask if they had any information for me regarding the refund. They informed me that the refund would be issued by Hyundai Motor Finance directly, and that I would need to contact them to discuss the matter.\n\nBefore contacting Hyundai Motor Finance directly, I first logged into our account on their website and could see that there was a pending credit in the amount of {$3100.00} that began pending on XX/XX/2020. I then called Hyundai Motor Finance to inquire about this. The first call that I made regarding this refund was on XX/XX/2020. On this day, the first person I spoke with told me that an attempt to refund the money via direct deposit had been made, but that there was a problem with our bank. She told me to call my bank and see what the issue was and to call back once that issue had been resolved. I did this and called them back within the hour to make them aware that the issue had been resolved. I was informed by the person on the second phone call that the refund would be issued to our bank within 2-3 business days. I was satisfied with that.\n\nAfter that time had passed, and there was still no deposit into our bank from Hyundai Motor Finance, I called again to try and understand what the hold up was. This call was made on XX/XX/2020. On this call, I was informed that the first two people I had spoken with were incorrect and that they do not issue refund by direct deposit. The person I spoke with on this call informed me that there had been 2 emails sent to the payment processing department already, and that he was sending another regarding my issue. He told me to call back in 2-3 business days. I asked to speak with a supervisor and was informed that I was more than welcome to, but they could do nothing more for me than he did. I spoke with a supervisor anyway, and they informed me they were sending yet another email to payment processing.\n\nI called again on XX/XX/2020 and received the same responses : \" I don't know what is taking so long. '' \" There is no reason this should be taking so long. '' \" We are sending an email to payment processing. '' There had, to date, been not one response from payment processing regarding the issue.\n\nI called again on XX/XX/2020. Again, I was met with the same responses. I again asked to speak with a supervisor. This supervisor informed me that there had still been no response from payment processing and she would send an email to them herself. She also informed me that not only is there a pending refund of {$3100.00} that has been with them since XX/XX/2020, but also, another refund in the amount of {$24.00} that has been with them since XXXX of 2020 that has also not been paid out. She sent an email to her higher up regarding this issue. She told me that it would be up to 5 business days until she received a response from payment processing, but to call back the next day anyway to see if any of the previous emails had been responded to.\n\nXX/XX/2020, I called, as instructed to try and get an update. The first person I spoke with told me that there has still been no response and no check number has been issued whatsoever in either amount. I asked if there was someone that I could speak with to issue a complaint. She transferred me to a supervisor. The supervisor at first informed me of the same thing. That nothing has changed. He then placed me on a brief hold to go through the account notes and told me that in the approximately 2 minutes that I was on hold, he had emailed and received a response from payment processing. He said they issued a check number yesterday ( XX/XX/2020 ) and that it was in an envelope, ready to send out. I asked him why the first person was unable to see this in my account, and why he wasn't able to see it when he looked the first time, either. He informed me that he didn't see it because he had to \" dig ''. He could not give me a straight answer on when it would be mailed, or when we could expect to receive it. Instead, he told me to call back on Monday or Tuesday for another status report. I do not believe that the check has been issued, nor do I believe it is ready to mail.\n\nNo other person had gotten a response from payment processing from XX/XX/2020 up until today XXXX XX/XX/2020 XXXX, but he was somehow able to get one in such a short amount of time. Every person I have spoken with at Hyundai Motor Finance has informed me that the payment processing department does not have phones, and there is no way to contact them other than by email, and it takes them a minimum of 2 days to respond.\n\nIf this matter is in fact resolved before a response to this complaint, I would be happy to mark it as such, but I do want this out there, because they are a huge company and it would be ignorant of me to believe that we are the only people something like this has happened to.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "vehicle_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing the loan or lease", "end_of_loan": "Problems at the end of the loan or lease", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan or lease", "repossession": "Repossession"}, "label": "end_of_loan", "src": "cfpb_issue_vehicle_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3989561", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/9b2f44505eabd67a391d", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5661, "company": "HYUNDAI CAPITAL AMERICA", "date_received": "2020-12-03", "product_raw": "Vehicle loan or lease", "issue_raw": "Problems at the end of the loan or lease", "sub_issue_raw": "Unable to receive car title or other problem after the loan is paid off", "text_sha256": "9b2f44505eabd67a391d1db1aea0f217e62dc999c4ecb55e249a9417c3e79ba7", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "To Whom It May Concern : I received a copy of my credit report with the intention of trying to improve my credit and take care of my responsibilities and noticed a few accounts that I wanted a little more explanation on.

There was no additional charges until I purchased a ring from XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX {$1200.00}. Several days later my wife called to have the ring ( XXXX $ ) transferred to our XXXX card for the purpose of getting 21 months of 0 % interest on payments ( the ring was for our sons engagement and we wanted him to benefit financially with 21 months to pay and 0 % interest. On the XXXX my wife online was confirming that the transfer was made as arranged. Instead we were terrified to see a transfer that appeared in the amount of XXXX and a second transfer of a second XXXX!!! Immediately reported that to XXXX XXXX as fraud and there wasnt a XXXX $ transfer ( as the sole transferred amount ( we immediately reported that to XXXX XXXX as 2 additions of fraudulent transfers that we immediately wanted reported ) the woman XXXX gave me a employee # XXXX ) she was in the fraud division and said that she would send the report to investigators to investigate ( as were on hold I went to our mobile account and saw another charge of {$1100.00} ) when XXXX returned we told her the additional charge and assumed that the amount was about XXXX $ less than the amount authorized as the sole authorized amount but wasnt the exact amounts ( she seemed annoyed at the news we were again financially harmed ) but we figured that they didnt transfer the tax or something else because the amount was not the XXXX amount ) we told her that the XXXX transfer was probably the ring ( the remaining amount was around XXXX ish and all that was remaining on the balance after the XXXX ( again she was of little use for any reason for this not being the correct amount purchased from the jewelry store ) we had to pay the XXXX transfer because that was the plan. But she was told that the XXXX separate charges of XXXX ( total XXXX was fraud and we didnt understand how they were able to transfer money that wasnt charged on any card of ours ( again she seemed very annoyed we were financially injured for charges XXXX was not able to explain why the fraudulent charges were possible and how they could even applied the money ( transferred to us at all ) she was obviously annoyed and I didnt feel that she cared about the money fraudulently applied to my XXXX card ) I asked for a email or confirmation of my claim to be investigated. XXXX said no they were unable to do anything to help in regards to evidence of the theft her company so causally attached to my XXXX card ( I asked her permission to record the claim as her company was also recording as well ) ( XXXX agreed to me recording our conversation as record for myself to have as evidence that I reported the charges immediately upon becoming aware that they existed ) as I was on hold again with XXXX I looked at my Mobile personal checking account and was shocked to see a ( pending charge of {$830.00} to be withdrawn from my checking account and heading to XXXX XXXX??????? I asked for the reason for this and explained that they had a major issue with the handling of my credit card balance ; again she seemed very annoyed with another fraudulent transaction that I was reporting ) at this time anger was the feeling that I was feeling along with the lack of any kind of reason how this could be possible ( instead of a complete transfer of XXXX to be payed ( the only actual complete and total amount we had charged ) they were putting a balance amount of over {$4500.00} of fraudulent charges XXXX transferred over to my XXXX card ( the {$830.00} was pending and not applied yet but I saw it pending to be applied to my XXXX card!!!!!!! ) she again was obviously frustrated with my concern and angry with her company for over XXXX $ ( all fraudulent put as if I was responsible for the companys failure to protect me a customer and she said that she would had the report to investigators to investigate!!!!!!! XXXX said the company was going to contact me with the results in 6-7 weeks!!! I couldnt believe the womans words and lack of empathy her company had caused me!!! In addition she refused to give me any explanation of why the would be taking another fraud charge ( XXXX pending to be a payment to XXXX XXXX and told me she couldnt give me any information on the charges because investigators were going to do this ) I was relieved I recorded her and my conversation because I had nothing from XXXX except a fraudulent charge of almost {$5000.00} that was recklessly being my fault as she refused to even acknowledge anything about amounts of the fraud her company so causally applied for me to deal with!!!!!! Again this is recorded as evidence of the criminal activity committed against me and XXXX was annoyed that she was having to report the crimes her company committed against me!!!! I told her I didnt have a single late payment ever on any of my 7 + credit cards that I never used except to charge and immediately pay the full amount every month to have a XXXX balance!!!!! My credit report will reflect the exact same thing I just explained including XXXX late payments EVER!!!!! Now my great and exceptional credit score I so carefully protected against any negative impact was potentially affected along with the fraudulent amount of almost {$5000.00} dollars of unexplained transfers to my XXXX card. And on the as of XX/XX/XXXX was only XXXX $ with the XXXX amount that was authorized and lawful.i went from XXXX dollars of credit card debt to almost {$5000.00} within a couple days as my credit report will reflect exactly as Im currently stating. Im seriously considering civil charges against XXXX financial crimes against me and my credit that until the fraud allowed by XXXX company I was a victim and XXXX could care less of the grossly irresponsible conduct by XXXX XXXX committed against me!!!!!!! I am hoping for the investigation will again prove my innocence of all the things that I have just reported as criminal activity against me personally. And depending upon any negative impact of even 1 XXXX point will determine whether I will sue in addition to the financial crimes against me that XXXX XXXX failed to prevent or even concerned about the impact of their own negligence actions that have been unlawfully placed on my credit card ( they recklessly attached to my name!!!!!! ) I will send screenshots to backup the statements Ive made in this case today!!!! I will hold XXXX liable for this grossly negligible conduct that now has been committed to me and XXXX when she attempted to send replacement cards to mail me I ( on audio recording stated to her I did not want replacement cards of any type and also explained the financial burden her company had grossly negligible allowed to impact me a consumer!!!!! I repeated to XXXX do not send any replacement cards to me because they already had committed enough harm to me and I refused to allow XXXX XXXX to potentially expose me to being financially harmed again by sending me any further cards and furthermore explained I wanted the account closed immediately to prevent any possible additional harm as a result of there negligence and reckless conduct!!!!!! I then called and reported this activity over the phone to the inspector general and then today to the consumer finance division.,. And at this time was not surprised when earlier today my wife received an email from XXXX XXXX telling us that my replacement cards were being mailed!!!! I feel this will almost certainly be litigated in superior court because of the lack of faith I have that XXXX will correct the situation as lawfully required. XXXX XXXX ( a victim of XXXX XXXX and the negligence that theyve shown to be grossly irresponsible of repairing!!!! ) I will hold them accountable in court if not correctly in a reasonable manner I will be seeking all legal attorneys fees to be repaid to myself and ask the court to XXXX accordingly a judgment that will be an example to other companies that conduct their customers similar as I have been financially and mentally harmed by their actions and lack of action to prevent their consumers from being taken advantage as I was thank you for your time reading this and all action you take to hold XXXX XXXX liable for.. again thank you again.

He phoned another employee ( XXXX XXXX ) whom ran my credit and determined that GoodLeap was a good match. XXXX filled out the electronic application. It took many requests for this documentation to be provided to us to verify what was keyed in. Pressured sales tactics made us feel rushed without being given the option to do some research before making a decision. We were told \" this offer is only good for today ''. Long story short, we found out that the solar equipment XXXX XXXX installed was not anywhere near capable of doing as the sales rep had stated. We learned this approximately a month after the install when we lost power for the first time. Hardly anything was backed up! We immediately began reaching out to the installation company regarding this issue. Meanwhile, GoodLeap started calling when we cancelled the very first auto draft. My husband ( XXXX XXXX ) and I both explained many times to many different goodleap employees that called the situation at hand. We made known we would not be paying for something that we didn't get. GoodLeap paid XXXX XXXX {$69000.00} for solar installation. I recall on one of the phone conversations I said \" You've paid for services rendered yet those services have not been provided ''. I was informed that goodleap didn't pay for services rendered. They funded the install company for the equipment only. I found this quite interesting considering another attachment sent by goodleap to me via email showed a price for trenching .... trenching isn't done on a roof mounted system to my knowledge nor did our yard show any evidence of this been done... I have a roof mounted system... odd?? One woman I spoke with requested a case be opened to investigate the situation. We later found out the man 's name was XXXX XXXX who never got in touch with myself or my husband regarding his \" Investigation ''. Without any form of communication with the exception of one anonymous text which offered no contact information, the case was closed, and the collection calls started right back up. Each time I spent roughly 20 minutes on average explaining the situation over and over nearly each morning for quite some time. My husband saw another victim of this same situation post contact information for XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) on a XXXX XXXX. This person claimed they felt like this employee was listening and genuinely trying to help. XXXX reached out and explained the situation again to this man. He then requested a second investigation be opened. This one was headed by XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX Manager. We spoke many times and exchanged numerous emails. Sadly, she more or less said the case was being closed due to not finding any fraud. This is all after I have sent her many screenshots, screenscrolls, etc to back up what I was telling her. I even provided her with screenshots of attachments sent to me by GoodLeap that the values were even different in the breakdown chart! I explained that I was very suspicious of the electronic signatures and the apparent ability to change documents signed after the fact! She could not provide me with a statement from the sales rep that had supposedly claimed he did not tell us these things we had accused him of as part of his misrepresenting sales pitch. I questioned if she actually spoke with the rep because at this point, she was closing the case and claiming she had to go off the electronic documents, not what we were showing and apparently, not off all the documentation I spent so much time providing her through the course of several weeks. Ironically, she had never updated me before this to let me know they had responded to her initial request for contact. It took me prompting by my frustration of time being wasted with no action happening. I have asked several times to be absolved of this fraudulent loan. The loan was \" cured '' pushing a payment due date out to XX/XX/2022. The installation company has since closed its doors and filed bankruptcy. I reached back out to XXXX via email on XX/XX/XXXX and again asked about cancellation as I reminded her that in her email dated XX/XX/2022 she made the comment that GoodLeap was the lender and that they could not cancel their contract unless XXXX XXXX agreed to cancel theirs first. She responded the following day ( XX/XX/XXXX ) by stating that \" Unfortunately we are not able to cancel out the contract. However, a XXXX manager will be in touch regarding turning your system on ''. Notably, it would seem she got a promotion between the XXXX and the XXXX as her title was changed to reflect XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX Manager. I will say I think I had all I could handle by this point. Months of stress caused my tolerance and patience to disappear. I responded to her email quite sarcastically and asked if the lender would also be taking over sending me an electrician for my flickering lights? Would they be sending me the check I signed a document to receive for lost pay due to the installation company standing my husband up the day he had taken off work to allow them to fix our leaking roof they caused? etc many more questions but I ended off by stating that this was supposed to be a lender. Lenders do not take on installation obligations when the company shuts down. That is not their position in this XXXX triangle and that I would not accept a replacement solar installation company to finish this set up. This was the last I had contact with her. Monday XX/XX/XXXX I received a call from GoodLeap at XXXX. This man was explaining basically the same thing she had said. He stated the name of the installation company that would be taking over getting the system going. I told him the same thing. I do not consent. I decline. I do not accept these services. He asked why and I explained it to him as briefly as I could that we had been trying to have these bogus \" contracts '' cancelled since a month after install upons realization that we had been scammed. I told him that goodleap had paid this company to install and yet they closed and filed bankruptcy. I told them it would be in their best interest to file with the bankruptcy court and request those funds back from them. He said he had made notes of this and wished me luck. I have not heard anything from that company since. I have an inoperable system which we were lied to from the very beginning. We have been pushed through this process of continuing to get it going by XXXX XXXX amidst them having multiple appointments for damages they had to repair from their XXXX install crew. XXXX XXXX is not new to this situation. There are many out here just like us that have eerily similar stories. XXXX is quite well known to many as well. I'm happy to provide any evidence you would need to look into this matter. I'm not looking for anything for free. I work and I pay my bills. But I will NOT be paying this one and pray they don't wreck my credit. This has been a nightmare. I filed a complaint with the XXXX Attorney General 's office as well. I'll be doing the same for the Attorney General 's office in XXXX as this is their headquarter state. I will not keep quiet and be taken advantage of. This is wrong on so many levels. Every single employee I've dealt with has heard my story. I don't know how people can be in these types of jobs and sleep well at night.

XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Account XXXX Please correct this inaccurate information on my credit report. I recently pulled my credit report from your Bureau and my attorneys and I had a chance to go over my credit report and in amazement, that you have decided to report me 30 days late on this account in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX as wells 60 days late on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nI immediately disputed this information with XXXX XXXX XXXX and the results of the investigation came back \" verified ''. Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously \" verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of \" records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. ( 6 ) Failure to transmit the statement required under section 1637 ( b ) of this title to the last address of the obligor which has been disclosed to the creditor, unless that address was furnished less than twenty days before the end of the billing cycle for which the statement is required. ( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the Bureau. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts. ( b ) Reports by creditor on delinquent amounts in dispute ; notification of obligor of parties notified of delinquency If a creditor receives a further written notice from an obligor that an amount is still in dispute within the time allowed for payment under subsection ( a ) of this section, a creditor may not report to any third party that the amount of the obligor is delinquent because the obligor has failed to pay an amount which he has indicated under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, unless the creditor also reports that the amount is in dispute and, at the same time, notifies the obligor of the name and address of each party to whom the creditor is reporting information concerning the delinquency. ( c ) Reports by creditor of subsequent resolution of delinquent amounts A creditor shall report any subsequent resolution of any delinquencies reported pursuant to subsection ( b ) to the parties to whom such delinquencies were initially reported. 1666b. Timing of payments ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Because I take my credit very seriously, I contacted every name and account that was listed on the report. I was again very shocked by the multiple names, account numbers and figures. Included with this letter, is every letter written to those who have hampered my ability to obtain credit. I believe that any judge that looks over the report would agree that it is a violation of both the FCRA, CCPA and FACTA. The following accounts were listed on your report and I have demanded from them a full accounting and five years worth of records to see if their accounts were in violation of the FAIR CREDIT BILLING ACT ( FCBA ). We also demanded signed contracts, agreements or any legal paperwork that would tie us to the following accounts. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct an investigation on this account if I request it. I DEMAND to see all 100 % verifiable proof that I was indeed Verifiably late on these accounts and the creditor fulfilled its obligations under ( FCBA 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) ), As I was never notified of a billing delinquency on my accounts, which the creditor must do under section ( FCBA1666 ( b ) ( 6 ). I DEMAND to see proof that I was mailed my statement to the correct address notifying me of both payment due date and delinquency of payment on the account. If you can not provide 100 % Verifiable proof and proper documentation that the CREDITOR fulfilled its obligations under the ( FCBA ) and ( FCRA ), I therefore demand these late payments be removed from my account or I will be forced to be in contact with the Attorney General of my State and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I therefore am submitting my written request to you to conduct an investigation. Per the FCRA, you have 30 days to conduct this investigation and respond to my request. If you do not respond within this time period, per the FCRA, you must remove this negative information.

Then they give me a {$4500.00} offer that I cant afford, telling me its a Covid-19 Streamline Loan. My mortgage before my wife died and monthly statement up until today was {$2800.00}. Why are they telling me I have to pay {$4500.00} now, thats not a relief. They told me that if I get a modification that the debt would be cleared because there are still programs out there and that I would get the mortgage lowered from {$2800.00}. In all my denial letters it says nothing about the Probate Decree Carrington was telling me I needed. The title issue, the person has never lived here and is not a borrower on the loan. I told Carrington this.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX my wife died. I sent Carrington her death certificate, on XX/XX/XXXX they sent me an offer for {$1900.00} for first three months. I called them on XX/XX/XXXX and they told me that the offer was no good. Im on the deed of the house and married to XXXX XXXX, Im also one of the borrowers. For a year Carrington told me that I had a lien on the house title and that I needed a Probate Decree to receive a loan modification or a loan mitigation to stay in my home. I went to the county clerk to see about the title and they told me that there was no lien. The county clerk told me to tell Carrington to give me a copy of the lien. Carrington told me that they can not give me a copy of the lien. At the same time every conversation I had with Carrington they always tell me that I need a Probate Decree to stay in my home and avoid foreclosure. I go to the Surrogate Court and they tell me that theres no need for a Probate Decree because I live in New York, there was no Will left by XXXX XXXX, Im married to XXXX XXXX, and Im on the deed. I tell Carrington this and they still tell me that I need a XXXX XXXX. I also called a real estate attorney and they told me that theres no need for a XXXX XXXX. I also reached out to a bankruptcy attorney XXXX XXXX, who contacted Carrington on my behalf with me sitting right beside her in XX/XX/XXXX. She asked why I was being told I needed a Probate Decree and the man that she was speaking to asked her who in the office told XXXX XXXX he needed a Probate Decree and that XXXX XXXX has no put in for a loss mitigation or a modification. XXXX XXXX said if that was the case then why does he have XXXX denial letters. The man who works for Carrington stayed quiet for over two minutes and then tells XXXX XXXX to tell me to put in for another loan modification. Why is Carrington lying to me and telling me I have liens on my title and that I need a Probate Decree to stay in my home and avoid foreclosure? Carrington employees from XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX and a couple of other employees told me if I clear the lien from the title and get the Probate Decree that I would have the back debt wiped clean and the mortgage lowered. None of these things pertain to my situation with my wife XXXX and me being a co-borrower. Why isnt Carrington giving me a fair monthly payment? Then out of the blue after XXXX XXXX put in the complaint for me, Carrington sent me an offer paying {$4500.00} a month. I also told them in XXXX that XXXX XXXX had died, he was also a co-signer. Then they sent me paperwork that needed to be notarized and signed by XXXX ( my daughter ), XXXX XXXX ( who is dead ) and myself. I called Carrington and told them I was still waiting for the death certificate and how can XXXX XXXX sign if he is dead. They told me not to pay the {$4500.00} because the offer had to be rewritten ( I have the email from the employee ). I was also told that they were mailing me the new offer, which I never received in the mail. I later spoke to another employee and they told me that another offer was being mailed so that I can make a payment before XX/XX/XXXX, I never received that one either. It seems like Carrington didnt want me to make a payment before XX/XX/XXXX. Im also told that there is a sale date on my house for XX/XX/XXXX, but Im getting mail and texts from realtors saying that the sale date is XXXX, XXXX. So why is Carrington lying to me again? My court case started in XXXX with Carrington. The court sent me a letter saying that all court cases were being cancelled due to XXXX. I hired a lawyer who stole my money and didnt represent me. I reached out to their lawyer XXXX XXXX ( I have emails as proof ) who gave me time to hire another lawyer ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). I reached out to the XXXX XXXX XXXX to let them know what happened and why I didnt have a lawyer representing me.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted One Main Financial for loan but was told the Underwriter stated I needed to use my car for collateral. Since the payday Loan had my title, I borrowed the money from my brother to pay it off to get my title. Once I received my title back, it was used on the One Main Loan.I wanted to add Disability and Unemployment Insurance to the loan but was denied.

I called again about my account and offered an approved {$500.00} of course I accepted it. Later I wanted to consolidate my bills and they were very anxious to loan it to but wanted my other vehicle as collateral. I did not stop to weigh my options and banked on that so I asked again about adding the Disability and Unemployment Insurance and was denied.

Despite XXXX and XXXXXXXX XXXX assurance that it would allow me to at least within 24-48 hours. However, it never has and still remains in the same spinning icons status.\n\nXXXX had also said that I was not allowed to email my supporting documents to the Discover Executive Office at XXXX. Early this morning, instead of doing time-sensitive work that is going to rapidly be due to be completed, I called Discover Executive Office Representative XXXX at XXXX, who said that she opened a complaint. She said she would call me by the end of the day to give me the complaint number though never did.\n\nShe said I had to attempt yet again to speak to a Billing Disputes Supervisor to resolve the above. She transferred me to Billing Disputes Supervisor XXXX in XXXX XXXX, Delaware, during Call Memo # XXXX. Despite my repeatedly telling him that almost all, and indeed 11, out of my 14 disputed XXXX charges are for unauthorized, fraudulent charges I was not even aware of and had no access to my XXXX account to be aware of, and 1 charge is for a defective product I had no account access with which to attempt return or exchange for almost 10 months, as the remaining 2 charges are for a defective product that was eventually replaced after delay though I need account access to confirm that after I repeatedly asked XXXX for an invoice though received none even before account access was denied me and the last for a similar product I might have ordered though need account access to confirm, he repeatedly contradicted me as he insisted these charges were for defective products. Then, he transferred my call to a department that could not even access or see any of my disputes at all. XXXX XXXX, in XXXX, in that department transferred me back to XXXX, who said that he had falsely changed ALL my disputes to state that ALL 14 disputes are for defective merchandise I had knowingly purchased then received. I requested that he render accurate his false statements and that he put the stop payment XXXX had promised to put then assured me she had placed on the XXXX XXXX XXXX ID #, the 3rd Merchant ID # Discover said was on my credit card account during the relevant time frame, as I had no access to my account to monitor XXXX 's continuous fraudulent, unauthorized charges.\n\nXXXX refused to block the XXXX XXXX XXXX ID # despite XXXXXXXX XXXX earlier promise to then assurance that she had. After I asked why, which I said made no sense given the dire situation and that the other 2 had been blocked due to the ongoing constant, extreme fraud coupled with denial by XXXX of access by me to my account, he said that he was going to reverse the stop payment on the 2nd XXXX Merchant ID # and unblock it so that that XXXX Merchant ID #, which had charged 4 unauthorized charges of almost {$1000.00} each in 2 days, on about XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, right after XXXX was aware by my notification attempts that it was denying me access to my own XXXX account in order to monitor it, could resume fraudulently charging me. XXXX deliberately, after two entire days ' equivalent of lost work for which I am not paid of speaking to Discover about its deliberate repeated endangerment of my account as it hung up on me repeatedly instead of disputing then allowing me to upload supporting documentation about all these charges and my requests to block all XXXX Merchant ID # XXXX used on my account, now allows the XXXX Merchant ID # that fraudulently charged me almost {$4000.00} to charge me again repeatedly, fraudulently.\n\nI called the Executive Office for the third time just today, asked for XXXX, was told by XXXX that XXXX had gone for the day without ever calling me with my Complaint #, and asked that Executive Office Supervisor XXXX resolve the entire situation, then contact me confirming that he has and write me a snail mail letter in confirmation and answering all my complaints. XXXX then said I can email documents supporting my disputes, after all, to XXXX, after Billing Disputes Representative XXXX had said on Saturday just 2 days ago I could not and XXXX had repeatedly said neither she nor the Executive Office could do anything at all about Discover 's Disputes site not allowing me to upload supporting documentation.\n\nThese are the Disputed charges : 1 ) Post Date : XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX XXXX Amount {$16.00} 2 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX XXXX Amount {$16.00} 3 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX XXXX Amount {$16.00} 4 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX XXXX Amount {$16.00} 5 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX XXXX Amount {$16.00} 6 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX Amount {$820.00} 7 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Amount {$950.00} 8 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX Amount {$960.00} 9 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX Amount {$960.00} 10 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Amount {$37.00XXXX XXXX ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX Amount {$31.00} 12 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX Amount {$0.00} Dispute # XXXX XXXX*13 ) Post Date XX/XX/XXXX Description XXXX XXXX Amount {$28.00} I am asking that Discover right away permanently refund me the sum of the {$82.00} total of the 5 fraudulent XXXX XXXX recurring charges and the {$3700.00} in XXXX fraudulent, unauthorized charges for a total refund of {$3800.00}.\n\nI also on Saturday night telephoned the XXXX XXXX and Unauthorized Charges Line Supervisor at XXXX. I spoke to Supervisor XXXX XXXX in XXXX, XXXX, though have not received access to my account yet, do not ever receive emails from XXXX, which XXXX said it sent today and each time I called about denial of access to my account over the last about half a year ( yet I receive emails from everyone else ) and have not received any credit yet. He said that, despite how the XXXX supervisor during my late XX/XX/XXXX call confirmed that XXXX had made an error causing me not to have access to my account and that XXXX error was the proven and only cause, XXXX now suddenly stated XXXX has added 2-step verification on my account and refused to assist. I obviously did not add 2-step verification on my account, after these earlier 2023 calls, as I had been told by the XXXX supervisor XXXXhat it was XXXXXXXX XXXX error causing denial of access to my account and causing my non-receipt of any XXXX emails XXXX Since I had no access to my account, to do so would be impossible.\n\nI spoke to XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX supervisor, a manager who said XXXX can easily remove the 2-step verification now on my XXXX account under XXXX alone 's access to it, restore my access to my account and credit all the above charges. However, he refused to do any of these at all during that call and said he was going to call me back then hung up on me and never called me back.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "card", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"purchase_on_statement": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "fees_or_interest": "Fees or interest", "getting_a_card": "Getting a credit card", "making_payments": "Problem when making payments", "closing_the_account": "Closing your account"}, "label": "purchase_on_statement", "src": "cfpb_issue_card"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/7072863", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/f651b6f82ffb68fc0b0e", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 11932, "company": "DISCOVER BANK", "date_received": "2023-06-05", "product_raw": "Credit card or prepaid card", "issue_raw": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "sub_issue_raw": "Card was charged for something you did not purchase with the card", "text_sha256": "f651b6f82ffb68fc0b0eef69611e8417f06844a3e44e7d5acf144a77003a751c", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I already have an account with one main.

During a rough patch, I lived off the credit from that card, and although it was difficult I paid a huge price by way of interest. I never have made a late payment and have been fully accountable for what I owe Chase.\n\nSometime around mid-XX/XX/2018, I received an offer from my Chase United MileagePlus Credit Card. The offer stated that, for a 3 % transaction fee, I would be given a year to pay off any balance transfers at 0 % interest, and after a year if the total of the transfers was not paid in full, I would pay all the accrued interest starting from the balance transfer authorization date. The offer claimed to be good for transfers through XX/XX/XXXX. Chase even sent me checks that I could use to make payments or, they suggested, I could write one to myself and deposit it into my checking account. I took Chase up on their offer and wrote myself a {$2000.00} check and deposited it via mobile deposit, to my XXXX XXXX checking account, on XX/XX/2018.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, just as I was leaving for a few days, I received a mobile fraud alert, from Chase, stating that an XXXX transaction for a {$0.00} authorization was made on the afternoon before, ( XX/XX/XXXX, at around XXXX XXXX ), to the aforementioned, Chase United Mileage Plus, that had offered me the promotion. Concerned, as I did not make an XXXX transaction, I immediately called the customer service number on the back of my card, to follow up on the alert.\n\nAlthough the card had not incurred charges, when I called to speak with the Chase Rep, on XX/XX/XXXX, she asked if I would like to cancel the card, as the authorization raised suspension that the card may be jeopardized. The Chase rep specifically asked about the {$2000.00} check that I had deposited to my XXXX XXXX checking account on the XXXX. I made it clear that the check for {$2000.00} was a valid transaction, and that I was depending on it, as I had already made transactions against the amount. I was told it would probably be best to cancel the card and get a new one, because my card had been jeopardized ; assured that the {$2000.00} in my XXXX XXXX checking account was secure, I agreed to cancel the card.\n\nWhen I returned home, on Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX, upon checking my email and noticing XXXX XXXX messages regarding overdraft and a returned check fees, because on XX/XX/XXXX, the very next day after being assured the {$2000.00} check was safely in my XXXX XXXX checking account, the {$2000.00} check did not clear.\n\nAfter a phone call to XXXX XXXX on, Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX, I discovered the reason that the check had not cleared was because Chase denied authorization. On XX/XX/XXXX, I made a call to Chase and spoke for 43 minutes, with a man who identified himself as XXXX, from XXXX, Missouri. For the next 43 minutes I explained that although a Chase Rep confirmed with me, on XX/XX/XXXX, that the check was legitimate and that she had assured me that the {$2000.00} would be transferred into my XXXX XXXX bank account, and did not tell me that a new credit card number would jeopardize the very vital {$2000.00} transaction, that it did not get transferred to my account. Further, I informed XXXX about the bounced rent check, the fees which, at the time, I thought totaled {$100.00}, and that it was urgent that Chase correct the situation in a timely manner, because their error had elevated my situation to crisis status. Additionally, I made a request at that time, for Chase to notify XXXX XXXX about what had taken place, on Chases end.\n\nXXXX explained that he had to release the {$2000.00} XXXX XXXX hold Chase had on my account before the transfer could be made. This confused me, as I am not sure why the hold remained if Chase would not authorize the transaction. He continued by saying that the release would be processed by, Monday, XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX asked and I confirmed that the XXXX XXXX account where I had attempted to deposit the {$2000.00} check, was the same account registered with Chase.com, and the account that I have used for all but a few payments to Chase, for over two years.\n\nBecause XXXX XXXX and Chase accounts had already established a connection, XXXX explained that if I would call on Monday, XX/XX/XXXX, the {$2000.00} transfer to the XXXX XXXX account could easily be done over the phone with any Chase representative. Regarding the fees charged to my XXXX XXXX Checking account, when I offered to send proof of the charges, XXXX said it would not be necessary to send proof and the only thing he could do is credit my Chase account {$100.00}. I did not think this was acceptable, as the fees were from my checking account, and if I tried to access the fees Chase had caused, now I would have to pay at least 3 percent to do so.\n\nXXXX made it clear that crediting my Chase account {$100.00}, was the only way I would see any kind of reimbursement of the fees I suffered because of Chases poor customer service and misleading information. Further, although XXXX said he would see what he could do about notifying XXXX XXXX, he never made good on fulfilling my request. Still XXXX XXXX has heard nothing from Chase, nor has Chase offered me any documentation to give XXXX XXXX.\n\nWith increasing anxiety, I could not wait to handle this on Monday, XX/XX/XXXX. Before I called Chase to make the transaction, I logged into my account. On XX/XX/XXXX, after logging into my account, I found that there was 1 external bank fee credit added to my Chase account, in the amount of {$5.00}. I called Chase and the first person I spoke with was XXXX.\n\nXXXX had XXXX notes and when she explained that it would take 3 -7 business days for the {$2000.00} transfer to show up at XXXX XXXX, I became frustrated and explained that I was told because the two accounts had already established a connection, that it would facilitate an easy transfer, just as I had been told, by XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I begged and pleaded for her to figure out a way to make this transfer happen that same day, as it was now dire and I was suffering from a financial domino effect.\n\nBefore demanding to speak with her supervisor, I told her about the {$100.00} credit that XXXX had said he would make to my account, and that only one credit for {$5.00}, showed on my account activity. XXXX insisted that the {$100.00} had been credited to my account, on XX/XX/XXXX, she even went as far to tell me that two different transactions had taken place one for {$100.00} and one for {$5.00}. I told her she was not correct, as I was, at that very moment looking at my account activity online and the {$100.00} credit was not there. She swore that the money had been credited to my account. I also made the plea that Chase notify XXXX XXXX of the situation and she flat out refused to do so, saying that it would not be necessary. After arguing back and forth for a while, I finally asked to speak with another supervisor, hoping that someone would see that, because of this uniquely urgent situation, Chase might want to do the right thing after causing such overwhelming stress and financial jeopardy. I was transferred to XXXX XXXX.\n\nXXXX admitted that I had been given false or at least less than thorough information, by multiple Chasse representatives. Further he told me he could understand why I was so upset but made no effort to figure out a helpful way to expedite the {$2000.00} transfer in an urgent manner, and again told me it would take 3 to 7 business days before the money would be transferred into my XXXX XXXX account. Before ending the 1 hour and 35 minute phone call, XXXX said no reimbursement would be made until I offered proof that the fees had been deducted from my account, even after XXXX had told me that the money had been credited to my account.\n\nI was more than happy to supply XXXX with the information he requested and he said that after I supplied the information to verify my fees, he would have the money deposited to my XXXX XXXX checking account. I was more pleased with this, as I had felt disrespected when XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX, told me the only way I could receive reimbursement was to be forced to apply the funds to my credit card. Furious, I asked XXXX to check the phone calls from XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, to validate that over and over Chase had manipulated and misinformed me after jeopardizing my financial security. He said that he believed me, that the calls were recorded for training purposes to support future customer service practice, but would not be used to support my issues.\n\nThrough tears, I pleaded with XXXX to tell me why it was ok to allow all of this to happen to mewhy had the Chase reps all lied to me. XXXX said he was sorry and that, it was not our intention to lie to you.\n\nYesterday, XX/XX/XXXX, I logged on to Chase to find that a {$100.00} credit had been added to my Chase credit card account. I believe that Chase acted fraudulently by backdating this credit, as the activity states the account was credited on XX/XX/XXXX, it was not. Not only do I have a copy of the activity proving so, when I spoke with XXXX, today XX/XX/XXXX to let her know I planned on taking further action regarding the manner, she said that the {$100.00} was credited on XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nThat Chase would do NOTHING to assist helping a customer in crisis made at their hand, but went to the trouble to commit fraud by backdating a {$100.00} credit to cover a lie that was told to me by their customer service representative, XXXX, that wouldnt have mattered anyway because XXXX XXXX gave his word that after sending the documents, proving the charged fees, the money would be transferred back over to my XXXX XXXX account.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, I sent in the XXXX XXXX documents that showed fee charges to prove where Chase had cost me significant damage, along with a lengthy letter describing the details of this matter, much like this letter I am sending you. A reply saying that they would respond within 14 business days is beyond borderlines abuse, in my opinion.\n\nAlso, on XX/XX/XXXX, I checked the status of my balance transfer, it is not expected to take place until XX/XX/XXXX, which makes me wonder why on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX went out of his way to explain the ease of getting the funds to XXXX XXXX, given the established connection between the two accounts. I dont believe anyone from Chase anymore. I would be foolish to do so. I believe that Chase should be guilty of fraud, regarding the backdated credit adjustment to my account. Their malicious behavior is a threat to all of their clients, as if they are willing to lie about something so insignificant, there is no telling how much people have truly suffered at their hand.\nI intend to follow through with legal action, if there is any that can be taken.\n\nA strange turn of events this morning, XX/XX/XXXX, where my wallet was stolen sometime after I had bought groceries at XXXX, with cash, and I was forced to cancel all of my credit cards. A fraudulent charge had been made to XXXX from the aforementioned Chase account. I called and reported the abuse. When XXXX XXXX said she would cancel my card and be sending me a new one I sobbed in terror, and told her that the {$2000.00} transfer would be jeopardized and I had basically already spent the money, and told her about the trauma I suffered, she assured me that she could make an adjustment to be sure that the transfer would go through. Of all the people I spoke to with Chase, she seemed to be the most understanding, thorough and accurate professional. She gave me her full name, told me that she would make an adjustment allowing the transfer to process and follow up, in the next 6 hours, via email.\n\nYou would think this would give me peace, but it reveals that Chase could have made an adjustment to the original {$2000.00} transfer, which shows neglect, or incompetence, in addition to falsifying their statements on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, that because the credit card number had been changed, there was no way to make good on the {$2000.00} deposited to the XXXX XXXX XXXX account, XXXX said someone could have made an adjustment, but no one had.\n\nWhere things are, at XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX 1. As of this morning, I had been charged {$150.00} in overdraft and NSF, as well as $ 300+ overdrawn with my XXXX XXXX bank account.\n2. A visit to Chases website revealed that my transfer will take another 11 days, far more than 3 to 7, which both XXXX and XXXX had estimated 3. My {$1200.00} rent check written on the XXXX was denied, $ XXXX/day late fee every day after the XXXX ; and maybe NSF charge from my landlord 4. I Have been on a financial and emotional roller coaster due to misinformation from Chase customer service representatives who have not done anything to go out of their way to compensate or make up for their error, ( although I believe XXXX XXXX might have corrected this had I spoke to her on XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX ) 5. After desperate pleas of urgency and over 3 hours of phone conversations with reps, I asked that, and am awaiting : a. The {$2000.00} transfer be quickly expedited b. Someone from Chase contact XXXX XXXX to explain misunderstanding c. Concern for fees that might incur due to a - {$300.00} checking account balance 6. Wait overwhelmed with stress and fear that a reoccurring payment from my checking account may happen before Chase transfers the funds, thus resulting in further charges. ( This has already happened twice ) Chase Ethics 1. On XX/XX/XXXX, after I okd the {$2000.00} transfer with Chase, they still failed to authorize the transaction. As a financial institution, I would expect Chase to be able to meet their promotional promise. That Chase cant manage a transaction made on an established two year account, simply because there was a change on the credit card number brings into question either a. Competence, or b. unwillingness to go the extra mile after inconveniencing a customer that has shown good faith, with a has consistent payment history 2. On the XXXX, XXXX assured me that because the XXXX XXXX XXXX account had been established with Chase, via XXXX, and been a source for my Chase cc payments, the transfer could easily be completed and swiftly expedited, over the phone on Monday XX/XX/XXXX this was not accurate.\n7. Chase has offered no documentation or attempt to call XXXX XXXX on my behalf, after I asked at least two of their reps to please do so 8. On Monday XX/XX/XXXX,, both XXXX and then XXXX said I had to wait 3 to 7 business days for the transfers eligibility to be confirmed, and that there was no possible way to get the funds to my account that day, on in an urgent manner.\n9.

I utilized the Federal Student Aid PLSF platform to submit the form ( https : //studentaid.gov/ ) At the time of submission, I was informed that it would take approximately 30 days to process.\n\nOn XX/XX/year> I scheduled my XXXX student loan payment via Mohela 's website to pay on XX/XX/year> and received an email payment confirmation reflecting both dates ( date payment was scheduled, date it was expected to pay which was XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nOn XX/XX/year> I received notification letter from Federal Student Aid that my PSLF form had been processed ( submitted on XX/XX/year> ). The letter indicated that I had made XXXX payments for PSLF eligibility although I have made several more ( XXXX XXXX ) which should have reflected XXXX at the time the form had been processed. XXXX XXXX hand, I understand that at the time of form submission that they may have only reviewed the payments through that time period. However, this is not how payments were previously managed and no updates have been communicated regarding the change that I am aware of. Typically the payments are accounted for although you are required to submit another PSLF form to verify employment eligibility for those timeframes ( Qualifying payment vs. Certified payment ).\n\nOn XX/XX/year> I checked the status of my XX/XX/XXXX payment via Mohela 's website and it was indicated as processing.\n\nOn XX/XX/year> I checked my bank account and the Mohela XX/XX/XXXX payment status. It was listed as pending on both XXXX XXXX and Mohela 's website. I also discovered that second payment for XXXX was processing of which I did not authorize and was not indicated on the website when I reviewed on XX/XX/XXXX. Again, I scheduled the XXXX payment on XX/XX/XXXX to pay on XX/XX/XXXX and for some reason on XX/XX/XXXX a second payment of the same amount was listed as processing. I contacted Mohela via phone and was prompted that the wait time was over XXXX minutes and elected for a return call. While waiting I sent a message via the XXXX platform on Mohela 's website to express concern about the XXXX payment I did not authorize. I received a return call from Mohela and was informed that because the payment was processing that there was nothing they could do. They could not provide rationale for the second payment even after informing that I did not schedule or authorize a second payment and did not receive confirmation email regarding a XXXX payment. I was advised to contact my bank- XXXX XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX and explained the situation and they assisted with a stop future payment request on XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nOn XX/XX/year> I discovered that XXXX XXXX inadvertently stopped the original payment scheduled on XX/XX/XXXX for XX/XX/XXXX ( although is was pending with the bank ) and the XXXX payment I did not authorize. After this discovery, I submitted another payment for XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX via Mohela 's website to ensure I received credit for XXXX.\n\nThe above describes a series of events that result in confusion and mistrust. My complaint is that Mohela should not process payments that you do not authorize and should be able to provide supporting documentation when this occurs ( when was the payment submitted, how, email confirmation documenting the payment, etc ) all of which they could not provide. I feel that this is attempt to cause confusion and not provide payment credit within a reasonable time for individuals who are near loan forgiveness and deduct additional payments that are not authorized. My loans have been in good standing and I have a systematic process to ensure my payments are made before the due date. A review of my payments via Mohela 's new platform reflects that all my payments are made on the XXXX of the month.\n\nIn addition, it is not clear why Mohela does not update payments monthly with Federal Student Aid when every other merchant ( credit cards vendors, utility providers, etc. ) are expected to provide updates on accounts on a monthly basis via monthly account statements that reflect payments made to-date and the amount owed. Further, there is also the practice of duplicating the amount owed for student loans on your credit report. Last month my student loan amount was duplicated on my XXXX credit report ( I owe ~ $ XXXX and the loan was listed twice indicating that I was XXXX in debt more than I am ) I submitted a dispute and received a \" no change/update '' response but the issue seemed to have resolved on its on but the fact that it happened is gravely concerning as these practices require diligent observation, recording and record keeping on behalf of the consumer when organizations such as Mohela should be practicing ethically.\n\nAs I prepared to submit this complaint today I have also noticed that the XXXX messages I sent via the Mohela 's Inbox Message feature on XX/XX/XXXX are no longer showing on the website. One email was sent to request cancellation of the XXXX payment I noticed and did not authorize and requested an explanation regarding while I awaited a return call from Mohela ( sent just in case they did not call me back ). The second email was sent after I utilized the chat feature on Federal Student Aid website to inquire about how my payments could be update. The chat transcripts reflects that I was advised to to contact my loan servicer, Mohela to request that they \" push '' my most up-to-date payments to Federal Student Aid as it is the loan servicer 's responsibility to provide updates. I have documentation from XX/XX/year> that reflect that I received credit for my XXXX payment in XXXX so it is uncertain why the reporting has changed. I have noted the lag time reflected in the XXXX transcript but this is unacceptable.\n\nMy regret is that I did not take screenshots of all activities specifically the emails sent via Mohela 's Inbox Email messaging platform - I never would have thought the organization would go so low by deleting documentation but here we are.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "lender_or_servicer", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/10334598", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/3219df3227f43070bc19", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6119, "company": "MOHELA", "date_received": "2024-10-03", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "sub_issue_raw": "Trouble with how payments are being handled", "text_sha256": "3219df3227f43070bc1998acdddaeb6fe709bf036cbc9cad717247d5fb0f7a15", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Consolidated my loans, ALL of them but they excluded one which they claim was not included but have repeatedly ask them to review as I believe it was included.

The dealership was Toyota of XXXX, and salesman XXXX XXXX. The interest rate at the time was a little higher than I'd paid for vehicles in prior years. XXXX told me the loan was a lease, but ended up not being a lease ( I later learned ) and to come back after a year to 18 months they would put me in a different Toyota with a better interest rate.\n\nI had purchased other vehicles from XXXX in previous years, starting at Toyota on XXXX XXXX with a XXXX XXXX, then a lease XXXX from XXXX Toyota in XXXX Texas, then a purchased XXXX XXXX and finally a XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I called and emailed the dealership attempting to acquire another Toyota as he had instructed, after several weeks and multiple emails and phone calls I was told he was no longer at the company, which didn't make sense because I knew from past dealings he'd been with them for many years and had no intention of going to another dealership. Finally someone told me that he had passed away, and that the XXXX XXXX I was in was not a lease as had been explained, but instead a purchase at a high interest rate. I am on a fixed income as a 100 % XXXX vet and recently ran into some financial difficulties.\n\nFrom the inception of the last agreement with Toyota I paid anywhere from $ XXXX a month extra toward the loan included in the autodraft payment to reduce the principal on the loan. When I tried to get another vehicle I was told that stock wasn't available at the time due to a chip shortage, even in XXXX and throughout XXXX.\n\nI was attempting to get something at a lower interest rate, thinking it was ending the lease to purchase a new XXXX at a better interest rate than what I had been paying since roughly XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nThe vehicle was repossessed in late XXXX or XXXX of XXXX. I was fortunate, that the vehicle wasn't sold at auction prior to XX/XX/XXXX and through Toyota representatives and XXXX XXXX I paid in urgency fees and money orders for repossession, storage and past due payments, an approximate total of {$3500.00} While attempting to recover my personal belongings, through XXXX XXXX, a third party repossession and recovery service that I would have to pay money to recover clothing, paperwork or other personal items from my vehicle. This occurred over the phone, and was told to me by a woman that answered the phone for that business.\n\nI then told her that the toyota representative informed me less than XXXX hours prior to my call with her, that I was not to pay any fees for acquiring my personal belongings.\n\nI also had contacted TDLR ( Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation ) to determine whether or not recovery and repossession companies fell under the same regulatory guidelines as towing vehicle companies do. TDLR told me they don't regulate recovery and repossession businesses.\n\nI was at a loss, because seemingly so, these companies charge consumers whatever they want, and are not available during normal business hours of XXXX Monday through Friday or even after hours in which consumers XXXX acquire their belongings from recovered vehicles.\n\nAfter navigating the website, from XXXX XXXX, unsuccessfully, and speaking to the same woman, I was told which buttons to press onscreen that seemingly had no connection to my situation or vehicle, but was a necessary part of their convoluted process to acquire my belongings.\n\nThe appointment was made and upon arrival I noticed that the property didn't appear to be a business in the operation of anything, and seemingly just a location with a XXXX foot fence surrounding interior portions of the property. XXXX sign on an exterior corner wall had faded out words, and was missing the standard verbiage on display at towing facilities in Texas.\n\nI was only able to make the appointment on the phone and avoid fees to recover my property because I told the woman on the phone that Toyota told me to tell them they weren't supposed to charge me to acquire my belongings. It seemed as if, since Toyota told me that at the onset, that they are aware consumers are routinely charged erroneous fees by XXXX XXXX services located at the edge of XXXX and XXXX XXXX Texas ; otherwise why would they mention it and why would the receptionist or admin staff at XXXX tell me I had to pay those fees, and then change their mind after I as a consumer tell them the lending company, Toyota said I was not obligated to do so.\n\nAfter numerous attempts on XX/XX/XXXX using XXXX XXXX and paying over {$3500.00} in payments, consisting of XXXX separate transactions Toyota told me my loan was reinstated and they'd sent a hold to XXXX XXXX, to prevent the auction of my XXXX XXXX XXXX. This occured prior to XXXX on that date. That amount included the repossession fee, storage and transportation from XXXX to XXXX XXXX ( auction facility ). After paying that, I was then told that I would also need to pay additional storage, in the amount of roughly {$10.00} a day plus other fees, perhaps taxes, they were unsure. I spoke to numerous representatives at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, and the XXXX as they and Toyota instructed me to do. They as of yet, XXXX pm, central, have been unable to tell me what that amount is, or even when I can make an appointment to acquire the vehicle, and that they don't make appointments the day of hold received or redemption forms from the lender. It appears this business practice is merely a way of taking more money from consumers, who are likely already struggling financially, via undue delays, and business practices in which lenders and auction service companies don't communicate in any way, that facilitates or enables a modicum of standard business financial services.\n\nSo far today, I've made XXXX phone calls in an attempt to schedule an appointment with XXXX XXXX, who again doesn't allow consumers to acquire redeemed properties the day they receive the paperwork from lenders allowing consumers to acquire their property after reinstating loans. I also made no less than XXXX phone calls between Toyota and XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nI am concerned that during this loan, which was said to be a lease and not to worry about anything, to trade up the year after the acquisition of the XXXX XXXX, was a ploy to entangle me or contractually engage me, in business with toyota motor credit, for not just two to three years, but more like 5 to 8 years if the deal had went through as initially explained and guaranteeing Toyota monies from me through what would have been XX/XX/XXXX, ( date of first lease/loan payment ) and into another loan, with a standard average of 60 months would've been XXXX or XXXX.\n\nI am concerned that there were fees and or un-necessary expenditures embedded in the paperwork for the XXXX XXXX that resulted in longer payment periods, and that perhaps I was victim to the procedures or policies of toyota motor credit, that resulted in the lawsuit from the CFBP against toyota ( and resulted in a judgement of {$60.00} million against Toyota Motor Credit ), because of all the nuances and exceedingly difficult hurdles already mentioned, that I encountered while dealing with Toyota, XXXX, and XXXX.\n\nIt seems as if lending corporations, recovery and repossession services work in concert to extort and entangle consumers in processes that only facilitate the enrichment and financial gains of Americans facing financial hardships. It has been almost impossible thus far to navigate this process no one at any company has been able to provide an actual fact based answer, or solution.\n\nDue to this, I lost the ability to generate income for utilities, food, rent, and other necessity items because it was my only mode of transportation. I was without electricity, water, food and through the grace of my landlord at the last moment was granted a reprieve on the court ordered eviction he'd already submitted.\n\nAfter navigating this process and viewing the court details that were publicly available it seems as if, from an outside perspective looking in through the lens of an affected consumer that their business practices and that of their partners is just a smaller piece of the puzzle that allowed them to generate additional income, while ensuring future financial successes for the corporation, their vendors, and 3rd party service providers.\n\nThank you for your time and consideration, XXXX XXXX", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "vehicle_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing the loan or lease", "end_of_loan": "Problems at the end of the loan or lease", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan or lease", "repossession": "Repossession"}, "label": "repossession", "src": "cfpb_issue_vehicle_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/8599689", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/e738d902b54a6c4126e8", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 8412, "company": "TOYOTA MOTOR CREDIT CORPORATION", "date_received": "2024-03-21", "product_raw": "Vehicle loan or lease", "issue_raw": "Repossession", "sub_issue_raw": "Account reinstatement or redemption after repossession", "text_sha256": "e738d902b54a6c4126e8128b183d2c5cf29095ec7afc299780f1a5f55ad8f9f1", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Im submitting a complaint to you today to inform you I was the victim of identity theft.

When we heard there was a good possibility that our home would now be considered in the flood zone and would be required to purchase flood insurance, we hired XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. to come to the property and take measurements. When he finished measuring my property his exact words to me were, \" It's not even close. '' XXXX created a Letter of Map Amendment ( LOMA ) and filed it with FEMA. It went into effect XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nOur mortgage with XXXX XXXX was sold to PNC Bank XX/XX/XXXX. PNC sent us letters on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX stating that we were in the flood zone and would be required to purchase insurance. When we did not purchase flood insurance on our own they purchased it on our behalf. We faxed the LOMA to PNC Bank XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nI received a certified letter from PNC dated XX/XX/XXXX stating they reviewed our insurance inquiry but flood insurance was still required. I called PNC and talked to XXXX. She said that the map was dated XX/XX/XXXX and the LOMA was dated XX/XX/XXXX. I called FEMA and talked to XXXX. He said that the maps went into effect XX/XX/XXXX and the LOMA was dated XX/XX/XXXX and that the LOMA was valid. I called PNC back and talked to XXXX. I explained that I had talked to FEMA and maybe PNC had the dates backwards.\n\nI received another certified letter from PNC dated XX/XX/XXXX stating that they reviewed our insurance inquiry but the FEMA website has a map with our property in a flood zone. They included a few maps as well as a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Form prepared by XXXX. On this form in section B, box 3 it asks \" Is there a Letter of Map Change ( LOMC )? '' They had selected \" No. '' I called FEMA again and asked him to review the map and LOMA. \" What am I missing? '' I asked. He said, \" Your letter is valid and is a legally binding document. If they ignore it, they are in violation. You should report them to the Lending Institution Regulatory Authority. '' XX/XX/XXXX, I called PNC and talked to XXXX. She assured me that she would personally find out what is going on and call me back in 2-3 days. Frankly, I don't understand what they are researching since they should know why they rejected my paperwork twice. In my opinion this \" research '' should already have been done if they felt they had grounds to reject the LOMA again and it should be noted on my file. I took a picture of my letter from our previous lender ( XXXX XXXX ) stating that they would refund our flood insurance since we were not in the flood zone according to the LOMA and sent it to PNC. I never heard back from XXXX.\n\nI called PNC and talked to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. He said, \" I see your letter. I will forward that on to the flood review department. You should hear back by XX/XX/XXXX. '' XX/XX/XXXX I called PNC to make sure things are progressing. I talked to XXXX who told me that according to her records they have until XX/XX/XXXX to get back to me. I explained my frustrations : I have called them five times. I have called FEMA twice. Our land surveyor says that the LOMA is a matter of public record and should have been reviewed by the PNC underwriters before they even decided to purchase our loan. FEMA suggested that I report them. The land surveyor, FEMA, and our previous lender all determined that we were not in the flood zone and not required to purchase flood insurance. I want to talk to a supervisor.\n\nXXXX said they will need 24-48 hours to get back to me. I told her, \" I have waited long enough. I want to talk to someone today. '' No one contacted me.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX, I called PNC 's customer service department. I talked to XXXX and asked her, \" Who do I talk to about a complaint? '' I explained the situation to her. She said she would review everything, find out what's going on, and call me back that day. I called customer service just before closing to see if XXXX had any answers for me. I talked to XXXX who said that a supervisor from PNC insurance department will be calling me tomorrow.\n\nThis is terrible customer service. If I had a choice I would take my business elsewhere. If there is a problem with the paperwork, a courtesy phone call would have been appreciated. These letters that they sent me don't tell me what the problem is - just that I should talk to FEMA which I have twice. They don't see any problems. I can't get through the front line of telephone operators at PNC to get to a person with any answers. This entire experience has been very frustrating. Most of the employees that answer the phone apologize and sympathize with me but I can't get any results.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX I wait anxiously for the 48 hour deadline to hear from a supervisor. It comes and goes. I call PNC insurance department. I wish I had the name of this employee because she was the most cold and unhelpful person I've encountered during this ordeal. She said in a snarky tone, \" It's not 48 literal hours. We have until the end of business today to contact you. '' So now, yes, I'm angry. I'm beyond frustrated. I raised my voice. While I tried to explain that I was in the process of reporting them because it was getting ridiculous, she talked over me and said she would disconnect the call unless I stopped yelling.\n\n\" Did you hear what I said? I'm going to report your bank because I can't get any answers to this problem, '' I repeated now calmer. \" Well that's your right, '' she said. \" You don't even care. I have called many times and talked to many people and no one has talked to me the way you have, '' I said. \" You were probably respectful to them and you have not been respectful to me, '' she claimed. She ended with, \" I will call you back at XXXX today to make sure that a supervisor has called you. '' I didn't hear back from anyone that day.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX, an executive calls me I think because of my complaint to the customer service department. He apologizes for all the hassle I've been through. I tell him my story. He says, \" We have to do whatever FEMA says. '' I said, \" Good because FEMA says the LOMA is valid and that you are in violation. '' He goes looking through the paperwork and finds the faxed LOMA. He tells me that it's very grainy and he can't read most of it. I offer to email him a picture of the document. He said to give him 2-3 days to get this figured out.\n\nXX/XX/XXXX, the supervisor for the insurance department calls. I give him an abbreviated version of what I've been going through. He apologizes and says that's not what they want to hear from customers. He mentioned the problem with the dates. I explained that the LOMA came after the maps and FEMA says it's valid and that they are in violation. He says he'll do some research to find out why it was rejected. I ask if he is the supervisor I asked to talk to on XX/XX/XXXX. \" I have no idea. I just heard about you an hour ago, '' he said. I asked him if he wanted me to email him the LOMA. He said, \" I think you've done enough. I'll take it from here. You and I will work together. I'll call you Monday. '' Monday XXXX calls back and says he sees that our property is in the flood zone according to the maps on the FEMA website. I say, \" I understand that it looks that way. That is why we have a Letter of Map Amendment. It is amending that map. '' He says that the letter is outdated. I say, \" I have talked to FEMA. They say the map is dated XX/XX/XXXX and the LOMA is dated XX/XX/XXXX. FEMA says that it is valid. Have you talked to FEMA? '' He says no and that he will leave that to the flood research department.\n\nPlease help me. I feel like I'm going in circles having the same conversations over and over again. FEMA, land surveyor, XXXX, and us are all in agreement and on the same page except PNC. PNC claims to side with FEMA, but FEMA sides with me when I call them. I don't understand and am beyond frustrated. I spoke with a loan officer from a local bank who told me that if we do not agree to purchase flood insurance and PNC is requiring it then they should never have purchased our loan. They do not have the right to force it upon us now especially since we already had it worked out with the previous mortgage company.\n\nThis has been a painful, stressful process and it didn't need to be. PNC let every deadline lapse without contacting me until I finally got the attention of an executive and supervisor ( who apparently didn't even know I had asked to talk to a supervisor ). While trying to communicate with PNC I was left with the opinion that this company is either incompetent or malicious. Neither word is appealing when choosing a mortgage company. I do not trust them and still do not have the issue resolved.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "mortgage", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"payment_process": "Trouble during payment process", "struggling_to_pay": "Struggling to pay mortgage", "applying": "Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage", "closing": "Closing on a mortgage"}, "label": "payment_process", "src": "cfpb_issue_mortgage"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/2812050", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/bd2c441ba653d18ec69b", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 8699, "company": "PNC Bank N.A.", "date_received": "2018-02-12", "product_raw": "Mortgage", "issue_raw": "Trouble during payment process", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "bd2c441ba653d18ec69b9ecaa93a204763489fa721ad0ee57b34bda51a02e5be", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "XX/XX/ I singed a contract for the lease of a XXXX XXXX XXXX.

ONEMAIN Account Number:XXXX Please correct this inaccurate information on my credit report. I recently pulled my credit report from your Bureau and my attorneys and I had a chance to go over my credit report and in amazement, that you have decided to report me 30 days late on this account in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX.\nI immediately disputed this information with ONEMAIN and the results of the investigation came back \" verified ''. Not only was I never late on this account, but according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the information furnisher is required to notify me of the insertion of negative listings. Since I have disputed the lates with the creditor, and you obviously \" verified '' them, I am very curious as to what kinds of \" records '' you may have for this alleged account. I am very confident that you are in violation of the ( FCRA ) and ( FCBA ) sections ( 1666, 1666a. 1666b., and 1666c. ) as stated below : 1666. Correction of billing errors ( b ) Billing error ( 4 ) The creditor 's failure to reflect properly on a statement, a payment made by the obligor or a credit issued to the obligor. ( 5 ) A computation error or similar error of an accounting nature of the creditor on a statement. ( 6 ) Failure to transmit the statement required under section 1637 ( b ) of this title to the last address of the obligor which has been disclosed to the creditor, unless that address was furnished less than twenty days before the end of the billing cycle for which the statement is required. ( 7 ) Any other error described in regulations of the Bureau. 1666a. Regulation of credit reports ( a ) Reports by creditor on obligor 's failure to pay amount regarded as billing error After receiving a notice from an obligor as provided in section 1666 ( a ) of this title, a creditor or his agent may not directly or indirectly threaten to report to any person adversely on the obligor 's credit rating or credit standing because of the obligor 's failure to pay the amount indicated by the obligor under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, and such amount may not be reported as delinquent to any third party until the creditor has met the requirements of section 1666 of this title and has allowed the obligor the same number of days ( not less than ten ) thereafter to make payment as is provided under the credit agreement with the obligor for the payment of undisputed amounts. ( b ) Reports by creditor on delinquent amounts in dispute ; notification of obligor of parties notified of delinquency If a creditor receives a further written notice from an obligor that an amount is still in dispute within the time allowed for payment under subsection ( a ) of this section, a creditor may not report to any third party that the amount of the obligor is delinquent because the obligor has failed to pay an amount which he has indicated under section 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) of this title, unless the creditor also reports that the amount is in dispute and, at the same time, notifies the obligor of the name and address of each party to whom the creditor is reporting information concerning the delinquency. ( c ) Reports by creditor of subsequent resolution of delinquent amounts A creditor shall report any subsequent resolution of any delinquencies reported pursuant to subsection ( b ) to the parties to whom such delinquencies were initially reported. 1666b. Timing of payments ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date. Because I take my credit very seriously, I contacted every name and account that was listed on the report. I was again very shocked by the multiple names, account numbers and figures. Included with this letter, is every letter written to those who have hampered my ability to obtain credit. I believe that any judge that looks over the report would agree that it is a violation of both the FCRA, CCPA and FACTA. The following accounts were listed on your report and I have demanded from them a full accounting and five years worth of records to see if their accounts were in violation of the FAIR CREDIT BILLING ACT ( FCBA ). We also demanded signed contracts, agreements or any legal paperwork that would tie us to the following accounts. Under the FCRA, you are required to conduct an investigation on this account if I request it. I DEMAND to see all 100 % verifiable proof that I was indeed Verifiably late on these accounts and the creditor fulfilled its obligations under ( FCBA 1666 ( a ) ( 2 ) ), As I was never notified of a billing delinquency on my accounts, which the creditor must do under section ( FCBA1666 ( b ) ( 6 ). I DEMAND to see proof that I was mailed my statement to the correct address notifying me of both payment due date and delinquency of payment on the account. If you can not provide 100 % Verifiable proof and proper documentation that the CREDITOR fulfilled its obligations under the ( FCBA ) and ( FCRA ), I therefore demand these late payments be removed from my account or I will be forced to be in contact with the Attorney General of my State and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I therefore am submitting my written request to you to conduct an investigation. Per the FCRA, you have 30 days to conduct this investigation and respond to my request. If you do not respond within this time period, per the FCRA, you must remove this negative information.

Here is the chronology of event ( s ). 1. In XX/XX/XXXX, we started a XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX dba XXXX ) with three partners and applied for business card ( s ) for the same. 2. As part of the application process, AMEX asked several questions about the business - nature of legal entity, license number, employees, expected spend, topline revenue etc. 3. Eventually the card ( ending XXXX ) was issued to partners and few of our employees, the most we spent on the card was about $ 15k in a month and always paid our bills on time. 4. In XX/XX/XXXX, the business hit a few snags and the legal entity dissolved and there was {$3400.00} due on the AMEX card at the time of dissolution of LLC. 5. In late XX/XX/XXXX, AMEX customer support team called me and literally threatened me that all the dues will be reported against my personal credit and essentially froze all my personal cards where I was paying bills on time. 6. I asked the customer rep that no personal information ( like SSN ) was asked in step-2 so what gave AMEX rights to attach business card of a LLC to my personal account. The rep had no answer and suggested opening a ticket to inquire with their IT team to get details of application sign up session. I agreed to the recommendation as I wanted to be fair to AMEX as well. 7. In order to avoid further escalation, I paid the dues and clearly told AMEX customer service rep that I am waiting to get details of my explicit consent to attach a business card to my personal account. 8. It has been almost 6 weeks, I have called them twice ( XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ) and the customer service rep answering does not seem to recall any details from the previous conversation and AMEX has not furnished any proof of my explicit consent. This is a predatory practice from AMEX that has harmed me and possibly many other small business owners : 1. AMEX essentially overrode the LLC structure of business by flashing a 15-page PDF with relevant clauses buried somewhere in the fine font. 2. Nowhere during the online application process AMEX explicitly declared prominently that the credit card was issued on a personal guarantee. If personal gurantee was all that AMEX cared for, then the application process should have highlighted this fact prominently instead of burying it in fine print. 3. We even issued cards to partners and other employees thereby exposing myself to a huge financial risk as I was unaware that the credit card is my sole financial responsibility. 4. Even after repeated attempts, AMEX has not been able to provide following information about the card application : a ) Date and time of credit card application b ) IP address of my machine c ) SSN number filled out on the application form.\n\n( B ) : AMEX 's response on XX/XX/XXXX : We have completed our research and have attached a copy of our response for your review.\n\n( C ) : I have sent the form AMEX sent duly filled out and sent back on XX/XX/XXXX Since then it has been over three months and there is not even an acknowledgement from AMEX. So the summary of this whole things is as follows : 1. AMEX waived my right to litigate in their T & Cs 2. AMEX used predartory practices to push a business card and shoved the \" peronal liability '' part somewhere in the fine print.\n3. I never provided any personal information or even agreed to bear the liability of business account on my personal credit.\n\n4. AMEX flexed its muscle and threatened to destroy my personal credit for which I never consented.\n\n5. When I filed complaint with CFPB about AMEX and asked that if AMEX to provide IP address, day, time and SSN number filled out at the time of busiess credit card application.\n\n6. AMEX closed the resolution on pretext of sending me paper forms that essentially requests the same information as ( 5 ) and have not responded for over three months.\n\nAMEX first indulged in predatory practices and now they are indulging in diversionary and delaying tactics.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "card", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3541788", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/6ed282ffc963d31f1fc7", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4244, "company": "AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY", "date_received": "2020-02-23", "product_raw": "Credit card or prepaid card", "issue_raw": "Other features, terms, or problems", "sub_issue_raw": "Other problem", "text_sha256": "6ed282ffc963d31f1fc7bbd15309e99699b6e5312233800b54a3228e138cf796", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "In XX/XX/XXXXI received offers for Tuition Answer loans from XXXX XXXX, ppaid to borrower ( myself ) as a single parent to assist the needs for my son beginning to attend XXXX. These funds were used to purchase a laptop, help buy and maintain an older car, transportation across state, pproperty insurance and various needs that happen.\n\nHe worked hard and attended XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX, didnt complete a degree program and unsure if in the right direction. He stoppped attending and returned home in XX/XX/XXXX, strived to find employment and regroup since.\n\nAfter a 6 months grace period XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX I received a payment booklet that had payment \" coupons '' for $ 300-400 a month. I was shocked and regrettably dont have this booklet anymore. I called and was told this was a 4 year payment plan. I stated I only borrowed what I felt I could afford to pay back averaging $ 50-75.00 a month basing on a federal loan review over a 10 year payment plan.and not a high income. At the time i worked basically part time with the public schools.\n\nMy principal has almost doubled since then, and am now QUESTIONING that my son is/was considered a \" co-signor ''. In no way would I have had him a cosignor-an unemployed full time student striving to create a better way, a career, and some possibilities. He was receiving Stafford Loans, had a couple small scholarships to cover costs of attending and is striving to repay.\n\nI BORROWED TO ASSIST HIM as a PARENT. I included his name as a student on the loan applications as the attending student thinking this was required, not as a co signor or borrower responsible for loans I was asking for to assist his education, and that I had SOME management over as an XXXX year old stepping into a university environment..and all that can happen on campuses ( sadly in many ways, for what is required of somewhat vulnerable young people, a big university, studies, time and money management ) He is striving to pay on Stafford loans and debts, and I do not want him included in this repayment.\n\nI am currently maintaining a 37-40 hour employment, not a high paying position and have had housing cost double when the building was sold and upgraded, am self supporting and dont have extended family sources-nor does my son. This is an expensive area-XXXX- and moving isnt an easy option either.\n\nI have been offered to look at a lump sum settlement (XX/XX/XXXX) possible reduction or forgiveness, have had the multiple robo calls, have had forbearances, and a lower interst program for 1 year ( XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX est ) I made a call on XX/XX/XXXX and was asked \" what could I pay-attempting to avoid default '' - .I replied about {$50.00}. They said by XXXX XXXX tomorrow. I said I could n't do anything until a payday. and what would {$50.00} do or be applied toward?\n\nI have since again contacted onXX/XX/XXXX and paid {$38.00}. I was offered a possible payment plan for 1 year of 1 % interest, {$110.00} per month and that the payments would not apply to principal until 7-8 months into the program. Right now, in all honesty this is what I have every 2 weeks for food, some gas. I am also paying on some small accounts, and see progress over time and to be paid for will improve my situation at some point over the year ahead.\n\nI contacted a legal office to find some support, sent documents I have and this didnt resolve anything at this time. I have searched for other possible solutions and feel in circles right now, along with the many lawsuits taking place, so many questions and vague solutions.\n\nI am frustrated and feel defeated, and that the amount will continue to grow no matter what I do.\n\nThis isnt a huge loan total with XXXX XXXXNavient, though it is doubling. One inquiry states 2 loans have been paid 60 %, 3 loans have been paid 30 %. The beginning principal was {$7800.00}. I strive to live within my means- which is not much.\n\nI DO NOT WANT my son to be involved in this and feel this was misinformed and somewhat deceptive ( attending STUDENT, NOT a CO SIGNOR ), as well as the huge payment question referred to above, the forbearances, the same questions of what is going where and why does the amount just grow.\n\nI have copies of dates and loans, have made payments and have had some forbearance periods, normally {$120.00} a month might be manageable yet to never see progress is very upsetting and feel the same as many other borrowers. I have some of the most recent letters to settle or lower or possible forgiveness.\n\nSo much doesnt make sense and i question accounting and the same questions of other borrowers with private loans. I wish I had never borrowed, somewhat uninformed on the results.\n\nThank you.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "struggling_to_repay", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/2785050", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/1b02ea4e5927a76b6186", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4691, "company": "Navient Solutions, LLC.", "date_received": "2018-01-18", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Struggling to repay your loan", "sub_issue_raw": "Problem lowering your monthly payments", "text_sha256": "1b02ea4e5927a76b6186383efc9102dac4760b6c58381e21bb0eb3eb22b65893", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "On XX/XX/2023, I took out a loan with LoanStar Title company in XXXX, TX for {$2500.00}. Upon receiving the check from LoanStar, I attempted to cash the check at their bank, XXXX XXXX, in which the bank stated that they could not cash the check due to insufficient funds. I then called LoanStar to inform them that I was having difficulty cashing the check, they proceeded to tell me to try a different bank. Upon doing so I received the same result from a different XXXX XXXX. I then proceeded to deposit it into my bank account with XXXX via the mobile app due to it was XXXX XXXX and the banks close at XXXX XXXX, and it was accepted and then later denied and placed on an administrative hold. I called my banks customer service number only to find out that my account was immediately placed on hold and was frozen due to the system could not verify the validity of the check from LoanStar. The customer service rep with XXXX then proceeded to inform me that more than likely the check will be returned and they would not be able to process it. I called LoanStar back and spoke with XXXX and XXXX to explain to them what happened and XXXX suggested that I should just cash the check at a regular check cashing place and that no one has experienced issues with cashing their checks in the past. By this time, 3 banks, including my bank had rejected the check and I needed the funds to cover funeral expenses. I didn't know what to do next, so I decided to wait to see what will process overnight. The next day, XX/XX/XXXX, I attempted to use my debit card and it declined and said invalid account on the POS system. I called my bank to see why my debit card declined and I was informed that my account was still frozen and the rep proceeded to tell me that my account had been closed due a fraudulent check that was deposited the day before. The fraud department was closed and would not open again until Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX due to the XXXX was XXXX 's XXXX. I proceeded to go to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX on XXXX since it was the closest location to where I was at the time and explained to the teller my situation. She asked me if I had already cashed the check at another check cashing location and I answered, no. She proceeded to submit the check to her corporate office and it came back approved to proceed with the cashing process. Fast forward to XX/XX/2023 and I received a called from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX corporate office and XXXX proceeded to inform me that the check that I'd cashed from LoanStar ( Wellshire Financing ) was returned as already being cashed. My account with XXXX was still frozen and the check had not cleared my account and again I was informed that it was on an administrative hold due to the check was not verifiable. XXXX 's is asking for their money back and nothing had cleared with my bank, and it looks as though I would be out of pocket {$2500.00} with a closed account and not able to access any of my payroll or deposited funds. I had kept in touch with LoanStar throughout this ordeal and there wasn't much help provided other than XXXX forwarding me a copy of what appeared to be a cleared check from his bank. I thought the cleared check was from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX due to this was the only place that successfully cashed the check. In mid XXXX, my XXXX account was finally restored and they manually released the {$2500.00} check that was submitted via mobile deposit. I then contacted XXXX on the XXXX to setup with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to set up a time for me to come by and disburse the released funds. She'd informed me that it would be an additional {$30.00} for the returned check. On XX/XX/XXXX, for no reason and without any explanation, LoanStar towed my car away. I thought it had been stolen so I reported it as such. Upon speaking to LoanStar, they towed it because they said I was extremely late on my payment, which the payment was just due on Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX. I called into their office on XX/XX/XXXX and informed XXXX that my payment would be a little late on the XXXX due to I had just recently regained access to my banking account again and she stated that my account would be notated and that there would be a late fee accessed, and I stated that this would not be a problem. By this time, I did not have transportation and I had been in constant communication with LoanStar 's travelling Supervisor in which she proceeded to inform me that their legal office actually towed my vehicle due to the check being cashed at XXXX 's and that they had to pay XXXX 's check themselves. I had been in contact with XXXX at XXXX 's and she informed me that this was not the case. On XX/XX/XXXX, I went into LoanStar and paid the entire balance off and was handed my title to the vehicle and XXXX informed me that her supervisor would contact the towing company with the lien release for me to be able to pick up my vehicle.

I bought product from merchant in installment payment without time limit. The invoice worth {$2700.00} USD. Invoice attached here. For your information, invoice is paypal invoice. I paid in total {$1200.00} months ago and i have no idea that PayPal did not count the invoice as buyer protection but only count each payment made for 180days buyer protection.\n\n2. Before pay the remaining balance of the invoice {$1500.00}. I contacted seller in XXXX. Why XXXX? Because XXXX is the only place we communicate as i dont have her XXXX number nor her mobile number. Seller online but did not response to me. I tried XXXX call as well but ignored. And then, i tried to contact her via XXXX pretend to ask about one of her listings and replied immediately. Attached XXXX inbox and XXXX response from seller. Therefore, it can safely concluded that seller avoid me purposely.\n\n3. Something sounds not right for me so i decided to open case of previous {$1200.00} payments and found out already passed time limit. Because i trust PayPal i paid the remaining balance of {$1500.00} through PayPal invoice in order to open the case despite the fact that seller ran with my {$1200.00}. With a hope that PayPal can investigate this to its roots.\n\n4. As you can see, balance paid by XX/XX/XXXX and i fill a dispute right away. Normally it takes 7 days before i can escalate it to a claim. But because i called PayPal. And told the whole story also provide black on white evidences. PayPal cs escalate for me because i told PayPal cs that in the invoice there is terms and conditions made by seller saying that in any events if buyer change mind there is 5 % restocking fee and the rest of the amount that already paid will be converted to a store credit. I told PayPal cs previously i will honor the terms and conditions made by seller for 5 % restocking fee but i refuse store credit because sellee is not selling anymore for the past half year. So store credit is no point. How to buy from someone who doesnt sell for half year already?\n\n5. Because seller avoid me after took my money i decided to cancel the transaction because i dont want problems. Shipping from usa to XXXX as shown in invoice is {$160.00}. In case items received broken/incomplete PayPal only cover shipping refunds at maximum {$20.00}. And in this pandemic situation, you can also browse news XXXX is the epicenter of covid 19 in XXXX. I wont jeopardize myself to go to post office/shipping carrier with a risk to be exposed in covid.\n\n6. I never fight for 5 % cancellation fee mentioned in terms and condition of PayPal invoice but seller has shown unethical business practice because case escalated to prevent her to ship the items but yet she still ship it.\n\n7. I raised my concern to PayPal and PayPal said i can refuse package from XXXX. Paypal will take care for me. But in this pandemic everyone needs money and i have conscience so i stop the shipment while still in USA. If i refuse the package after arrived in XXXX seller will loss another {$160.00} shipping cost back from XXXX to USA. Im being considerate here and try to save money and trouble for everyone but this is what i get in return.\n8. All calls i made to PayPal usa are recorded. I called PayPal on XXXX XX/XX/2021 to ask why case estimate pushed back to XXXX XX/XX/2021 and PayPal cs keep assuring me to wait until XXXX XX/XX/2021 PayPal promised i will get full refund of {$2700.00} invoice value if seller still not respond. And when i called PayPal XXXX XX/XX/2021 PayPal also assures me if within a day seller still not response to PayPal case will be closed in my favor. But all are empty promises. Fortunately i record all the call as precautions.\n\n9. Paypal emailed me on XXXX 2021 stated that PayPal has credited temporary provision refund to me but it doesnt reflected in my credit card. Therefore, yesterday i called PayPal. PayPal cs admitted its a mistake and never credit any refunds to me. What kind of mistake is this? Is this mistake acceptable for a big company like PayPal? Attached the email from PayPal.\n\n10. PayPal cs asked me to confirm with XXXX. If package confirm returned successfully and received by seller. I already provide statement from XXXX upper management specialist confirmed that seller has received back her package on XXXX XX/XX/2021. If PayPal wants to confirm the legitimate email from XXXX. PayPal is free to call and confirm with XXXX rather than keep me hanging and keep dragging me? Its such a huge amount of money. I would not pay {$1500.00} and makes me sink even deeper risking loosing {$2700.00}.\n\n11. I would like to clarify regarding seller statement on the case. First, seller excuse not to reply me because i change my XXXX name so she doesnt know me. Its total lie. Regardless what ame i changed into, the XXXX has the message logs between me and her. She can scroll and find out who im. Or else, if shes lazy to screenshot she can ask me who im. And if she doesnt reply because she doesnt know me why she replies in XXXX to a stranger who ask for her item availability? Second seller accused me to block her from XXXX. Attached the screenshot of the message in XXXX of seller asked why i block her. My questions are if i block her how come i receive her message? And the funniest thing is, She has thousands dollar of my money why would i block her? Shouldn't be the other way around?\n\n12. Attached here the copy of XXXX label, airway and commercial invoice filled by the seller that i received from XXXX XXXX. As shown the package value written by the seller is {$2700.00}. It match the total value of the PayPal invoice billed to me. Its undeniable evidence prove that i never receive any items in the PayPal invoice before. Therefore as recorded on my call with PayPal. Paypal will refund me total of full amount of the invoice {$2700.00}. Please crosscheck the commercial invoice with XXXX to confirm if the commercial invoice sent to me by XXXX that i attached here is a correct commercial invoice seller provided to XXXX.\n\n13. Paypal change case filled on XXXX XXXX yesterday from item not received to item significantly different. How come PayPal justify its actions? Item returned to seller not even out from USA yet. Merchant can use it against me by saying im a liar. How come i claimed item significantly different if i never see it at all?\n\n14. After that i immediately call PayPal and make a complaint about this. PayPal then change back the case to item not received. But its back to square one. Back to first step of dispute. Exactly the first step at XXXX XX/XX/2021 the first time i filled the case. Its dragging, twisting and just unjustifiable.\n\n15. PAYPAL refuse to be responsible for their merchant invoice issued to me with excuse that its not an invoice eventhough the invoice has PayPal head logo on it. Paypal CS also asked me to provide additional information such as XXXX confirmation stating that seller already received her package back and send it to XXXX but yesterday when i spoke to the dispute specialist she said its wrong information as inbox not monitored but PayPal cs told me kust ignore the auto reply email because they will still add the additional documents. After that the specialist ask me to attach the additional information to paypal.com/il/uploaddoc. I did uploaded but she said she dont see any documents uploaded after that she asked me send to XXXX but then i also receive an auto response asked me to login and leave message.\n\n16. I have reached out to upper management through XXXX but all of them no response and some of them read my message but ignore me. Attached the XXXX messages.\n\n17. Paypal refuses to provide me full refund of the total invoice of {$2700.00}, despite there is a black on white evidence which is commercial invoice seller provided to XXXX for the value of package that match the total invoice of {$2700.00} and cornered me saying that i keep bringing the value of invoice. I would like to ask CFPB which seller in conscious mind will send buyer a package with product valued at {$2700.00} when buyer only paid for {$1500.00}?\n18. Paypal stated that {$1500.00} i paid not through invoice. When in PayPal APP shown clearly its paid through PayPal invoice. I dont know why every PayPal agent even specialist always say different from another and always try to escape from responsibility by asking me who is the agent that provide me such information 19. PayPal cs promised me that PayPal will go through this case and will provide me FULL REFUND OF THE TOTAL INVOICE OF {$2700.00}. Because proven that the value of the package match the value of the total invoice.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "money_transfer", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/4570878", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/92b2981240b4a9a7704d", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 8697, "company": "Paypal Holdings, Inc", "date_received": "2021-07-24", "product_raw": "Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service", "issue_raw": "Fraud or scam", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "92b2981240b4a9a7704d3ebaebdb7fa7e5cac7e5805b83ca7106793f49c65c96", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Hello, my name is XXXX XXXX.

I have been a happy customer of Chase for over 10 years prior to this situation.\n\nOn XX/XX/2018 at approximately XXXX EST, before a new card was received, I was called by the JP Morgan Chase Collections department to discuss a 'Hardship ' arrangement to pay off the outstanding balance on the account. I spoke with the representative regarding the program and its benefits/pitfalls. During her disclosures I specifically asked, \" Will this program 'Suspend ' my account ( meaning I would be able to use the account once it was in good standings ) or 'Close ' my account ( meaning I would have to re-apply for a credit card once my credit score was acceptable ). '' The representative quoted 'Suspend ' and in doing so I agreed to the terms of the 'Hardship ' arrangement.\n\nIn an attempt to purchase my first home I went to get pre-approved for a mortgage loan only to find out my credit score was so low that I couldn't be approved even with a co-signer. I requested more information and was told that my credit score no longer showed a 'JP Morgan Chase Credit Card XXXX ' With the hopes of getting more information, I reached out to Chase directly.\n\nInitially Chase could not pull up my account because the card number I was using for verification had been cancelled and they had no record of the account ( Chase updated my account to show a card number I had yet to receive ). Once I verified my identity I was informed that : 1 ) It is company policy to 'Close ' the account when a customer enters into a 'Hardship ' arrangement EVEN IF a representative falsely claimed the account would be 'Suspended ' 2 ) There was no recourse to my account getting closed without my informed consent.\n\n3 ) Chase does not provide copies of audio recordings or transcripts, they are for 'quality assurance purposes only ' and are 'Chase property, ' despite the fact that customers have to agree to be recorded to begin with.\n\n4 ) Chase does not mail out contract agreement information, documents regarding the 'Hardship ' arrangement, or 'Right of first refusal ' forms.\n\nIn the last two weeks I have been repeatedly turned down when requesting an audio recording or text transcript of the conversation where I was offered the 'Hardship ' arrangement.\n\nDue to a lack of recourse I requested the 'Legal ' department or an address/name of someone I could send a formal request to.

I was not physically present for this as I was serving as a XXXX XXXX XXXX in rural XXXX and BB & T transactions from my personal checking account ending in XXXX confirm that I made a withdrawal in XXXX, XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I did not know of or authorize the opening of the joint account ending in XXXX. The account signature card dates my forged signature as XX/XX/XXXX. I was, again, serving abroad and did not sign this document at any time. Furthermore, as I learned over the phone from BB & T 's Identity Theft unit, BB & T accepted a voided and therefore invalidated Colorado drivers license as proof of my identity. I would like to note that this license literally has holes punched through it spelling \" VOID '' and that I had maintained a Virginia drivers license for years prior to XX/XX/XXXX.\n\nThis is in direct violation of FDIC Law, Regulations, Related Acts mandates in Miscellaneous Statutes and Regulations Part 1020 that banks must have a Consumer Identification Program ( CIP ) that contains procedures for verifying the identity of the customer, using information obtained in accordance with paragraph ( a ) ( 2 ) ( i ) of this section, within a reasonable time after the account is opened. Appropriate documents from an individual may include an unexpired government-issued identification evidencing nationality or residence and bearing a photograph or similar safeguard, such as a driver 's license or passport. As outlined above, BB & T accepted no such document. When a person other than an individual ( such as a corporation, partnership, or trust ) opens an account, the FDIC requires documents showing the existence of the entity, such as certified articles of incorporation, a government-issued business license, a partnership agreement, or trust instrument. At no time did I consent to or issue a trust instrument to another individual.\n\nThe FDIC allots for verification through non-documentary methods and the bank 's non-documentary procedures must address situations where an individual is unable to present an unexpired government-issued identification document that bears a photograph or similar safeguard ; the bank is not familiar with the documents presented ; the account is opened without obtaining documents ; the customer opens the account without appearing in person at the bank ; and where the bank is otherwise presented with circumstances that increase the risk that the bank will be unable to verify the true identity of a customer through documents. I have not been provided with any evidence that BB & T pursued non-documentary verification as it maintained an invalidated drivers license as proof of my identity in relation to the joint account.\n\nThis fraudulently-opened joint account ending in XXXX was used to deposit a check in my name on XX/XX/XXXX. This check, numbered XXXX, was in the amount of {$20000.00}. BB & T records confirm that I received a total of {$4000.00} from check number XXXX through a phone transfer from account ending in XXXX to account ending in XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I was not aware that these funds were from a fraudulent joint account nor that they were from a check reissued under false pretenses in the amount of {$20000.00}.\n\nThe joint account ending in XXXX was closed on XX/XX/XXXX without my awareness of its existence while I remained in XXXX. A closing balance of {$10000.00} was issued to the individual who closed the account. I did not receive this money.\n\nI am demanding an explanation as to how the account ending in XXXX was opened, acknowledgement of fraud, and swift reimbursement of check number XXXX. Additionally, I am demanding to know how many other accounts ( aside from those ending in XXXX and XXXX ) were opened in my name at BB & T and all correlating records. I would not be making these demands if BB & T had adhered to FDIC regulations and believe that the bank should be held accountable to the full extent of the law.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "bank_account", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing an account", "closing": "Closing an account", "opening": "Opening an account", "charged_by_another_company": "Problem with a lender or other company charging your account", "low_funds": "Problem caused by your funds being low"}, "label": "opening", "src": "cfpb_issue_bank_account"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/3007054", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/426b1dde1d80005ab3d6", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4445, "company": "BB&T CORPORATION", "date_received": "2018-08-31", "product_raw": "Checking or savings account", "issue_raw": "Opening an account", "sub_issue_raw": "Account opened as a result of fraud", "text_sha256": "426b1dde1d80005ab3d6c4d652389995da51cd6739e0ed7f4d31dd49795c0d85", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "XXXX XX/XX/2021 : I didn't request this inquiry.

I have recently come across information from the Federal trade commission website more specifically the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX act.\nThe FTC is a government website I take all my information from the source. It's important that you know where you're getting information from why is that important? Because the source is important for credibility. The information that I'm giving you I can cite any of the source and you can go and look up the information yourself that is the power of citing your sources.\n\n15 USD 6802 obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information notice and what requirements so accept as otherwise provided in the subtractor a financial institution may not directly or through any affiliate disclose to a non-affiliated third party.\nBefore your information is disclosed or is given to another affiliated third party things that must be done so the first thing you need to do when you're opting out of having your information reported is the company should have provided your disclosures. In general a financial institution may not disclose non-public personal information to a non-affiliated third party unless they do these three things : If that financial institution have not done these three things they can not disclose your information to no affiliated third party. There are Three disclosures that must be mentioned and or presented before they can share my information. I must receive three disclosures before they report my information they have to give me three disclosures.\n\nDisclosure 1 such financial institution clearly and conspicuously right disclose to the consumer in writing or in electronic form or other form permitted by the regulations prescribed on the section 6804 of this title that such information may be disclosed to such third party.\n\nSo in modern day a large majority of companies aren't mentioning disclosures to their customers and are breaking the law. At no point was I informed and disclosed that my information would be shared to a third party.\n\nThe second thing is the consumer is given the opportunity before the time that such information is initially disclosed to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party.\n\nI repeat The consumer is given the opportunity before the time that such information is initially disclosed to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party. So to clarify they're saying The consumer must be given the opportunity before they report the information that such information is going to be reported and they disclose it to you that you the consumer have the right to know That's basically what they're saying so the consumer is giving the opportunity you are getting the opportunity to say yes or no I want information reported or I don't want it reported before they put it on there that's what it says before the time that's such information is disclosed to the non affiliated third party to direct that to direct means you're going to tell them Yes I wanted it reported or no I don't want it that such information not be disclosed to such third party. At no point does a company inform the consumer that before they disclose it they said hey in 30 days we're going to report your information you right now have an opportunity to say if you want that information reported.\n\nThe consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise the non-disclosure option I didn't say they were supposed to give you one, I didn't say they were supposed to give you two, I said they're supposed to give you three disclosures before your information gets reported who on this live has ever received all three disclosures.\n\nXXXX dealership did not disclose this information to me that is required by law that is true. XXXX dealership knowingly and willfully withheld pertinent information regarding the disclosure of my information to an two affiliated and non-affiliated third party. XXXX auto dealership knowingly and willfully withheld information that explained how I the consumer can exercise that non-disclosure option.\nYou are in violation of several federal laws you have 10 calendar days from the receipt of this letter to delete this account from all credit reporting agencies that you have furnished this information to along with all my consumer report that this information is on should you decide to discriminate against me. Iam aware that discrimination can occur when a person exercises their consumer laws some companies or financial companies they will stop doing business with you like if you have accounts with them they'll shut the accounts down.\nThe equal credit opportunity act : equal credit opportunity act you can not be discriminated against if you exercise your consumer right. If you in good faith exercise any of your consumer rights and you find that after you exercise these rights your credit card got shut down your bank account got frozen you can not apply to get a car anymore even though you're qualified.\n\n15 USC 1691 A3 right activities constitute in discrimination it says this it shall be unlawful for any creditor to discriminate against any applicant with respect to any aspect of a credit transaction number one on the basis of raise color religion national religion XXXX material status age provided at the applicant as the capacity to contract number two says because all are part of the applicants income derived from any public assistance program. Lastly number three says they can not discriminate against you because the applicant in good faith exercise any right under this chapter chapter 41. Chapter 41 covers the FDCPA the truth and lending the FCRA and in short demanding the deletion of this account.\n\nI've a copy of my credit report and realize that my consumer report has things that should not be there. I demand the below account be deleted from my consumer report immediately. ( VIN number ) ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) These accounts are if it's one or if it's more than one is of violation of 15 USC 1681 and the fair credit report a to b. The Exclusion section says this right except as provided in paragraph three the term consumer report does not include keyword is \" does not include '' mean it's not a part of it when we go to the definition of what a consumer report is it's going to give us the definition of what a consumer report is so going off of that definition right now we can say that certain things don't apply or certain things don't belong on your consumer so let me explain under truth in lending 15 USC 1602L credit card is defined as the following the term credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining money property labor or services on credit so for those of you who don't know your driver 's license is a credit card for those of you who don't know your social security card is a credit card based on truth in lending definition because it is a card that is used to get money, labor, or services on credit so by definition your social and your IDs are both credit cards now what the law says is any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or some advice so now you know that your social is a credit card you know that your driver 's license is a credit card so these two definitions fit the exclusion under 15 USC 1681 it fits the category of an authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issue of credit card so that's what that is the auto loan that you got it is a approval or an authorization of a specific extension of credit that you use your credit card I.E your social or your driver 's license and are both. So now that you're aware of what the credit card is and what this law is saying is that we're not saying the term credit card means any card it never specified and say what type of card it didn't say a XXXX card it didn't say a XXXX card it says any card that's what it said it said any card right so now that we noticed the term credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other device existing for the purpose of obtaining money property labor or services on credit.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "vehicle_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/10262627", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/529be3d9bd385f5575cc", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 8299, "company": "American Credit Acceptance, LLC", "date_received": "2024-09-26", "product_raw": "Vehicle loan or lease", "issue_raw": "Repossession", "sub_issue_raw": "Loan balance remaining after the vehicle is repossessed and sold", "text_sha256": "529be3d9bd385f5575ccca44c7efc8f04adf0f9e9c8acc219bad70b1ff009664", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "I have 3 collections that were opened Fraudulently.\n\nXXXX.

They stated they could not open a bank account for me based off of credit information. In XX/XX/XXXX, I had a check from a settlement for a personal injury that had happened and I was told I couldn't cash it at XXXX and I had to take it to the bank. So XX/XX/XXXX I went to Bank of America to cash the check and they told me I couldn't cash it that I needed to deposit it, so I did. It was for {$29000.00}, so I split half to the checking half in savings. Because I had earlier received a small PUA backpayment I was still living fine off of that and I just was going to wait until I needed the BOA money to use it. I went to the atm the same day to try to make sure the money was in it through the atm with the virtual card. It was so i left. So, from XX/XX/XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX, i then called XXXX because I waited for my card in the mail and because the person I live with went to jail, and there was a no contact order in place, i couldn't go and get the mailbox key from him/jail. So I contacted Bank of America and explained my situation, and asked if instead of having a debit card sent to my home, considering the circumstances, if I could come in and pick XXXX up she stated no and stated she would be sending out a different debit card. So by then I'd say it was around XXXX XXXX or so that I finally received the debit card by waiting outside and ahowing the deliverywoman my ID and asked if i could please have the mail and at that moment she did, .and I was excited. I activated it and left it on my dresser drawer in my bedroom. It was going good until a woman asked me to run her to XXXX for gas money and I figured okay and I did. But then when she got of of my vehicle I noticed my little pocket book and phone were missing. And because she was in a motel I wasn't sure what room she was in because she got out of the car so quick and I just drove Away. I XXXX have dropped her off and noticed about XXXX mins after that my things were missing. I hadn't realized she asked me to use the phone, and i let her. I panicked and was furious at the same time because she had taken the phone and my money and because when I went home I realized I had no card, to call in order to get the statements and ask them to freeze the card. So I had to wait until I was around a phone to call and tell them what happened and to put a freeze on the account. I contacted the bank and explained the issue and that there was no way any one can go through {$29000.00} in a matter of a month. So then I looked more into my statements around XXXX XXXX and I noticed alot of \" back to back '' charges that I was concerned about so I went to the Acutral B.O.A location and explained to the woman, XXXX, the situation and she decided to close the account, and open a new one. Because it showed {$3800.00} overdrafted I had no choice but to open the second account, so if I had deposits they would go to the new one. There were a few temporary credits added back to the old account, expect becaue it was overdrafted, i had to fix the balance on the account first and if any money left would go to the new account. I filed the first claim for {$8400.00}, and XXXX asked about a few more transactions that looked to be unauthorized in which they were. It was around {$3400.00}. So she opened that new account told me to wait until I received my new card in mail and someone will be in contact with me reguarding the issues because she, herself could not do anything besides have it looked into. So a few days went by and I went back in to BOA to see what was going on, and I did this for about a month. I still to this day was railroaded and told different things by different employers because if I called BOA employees were almost lost to what I was stating and I still haven't had any luck to this day. The only excuse they gave me was, that the transactions were authorized by me or by someone I know. And I explained why that was incorrect and the banker, XXXX XXXX never returned any of my calls and just sent a packet of statements to my house. I, still to this day, have tried calling and figuring.it out but there was a point that when I did call, it goes straight to her business voice-mail.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "bank_account", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing an account", "closing": "Closing an account", "opening": "Opening an account", "charged_by_another_company": "Problem with a lender or other company charging your account", "low_funds": "Problem caused by your funds being low"}, "label": "managing", "src": "cfpb_issue_bank_account"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/9057569", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/919b550bd43b4af7a93e", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 4259, "company": "BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION", "date_received": "2024-05-20", "product_raw": "Checking or savings account", "issue_raw": "Managing an account", "sub_issue_raw": "Problem using a debit or ATM card", "text_sha256": "919b550bd43b4af7a93e68b0da39a546594b4cc830d353fcdc67d49e267aa83e", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "In XX/XX/XXXX, I was referred to XXXX XXXX XXXX because I wanted to trade-in a car that I was financing.

As a single mother with only my small income to support my family, I struggled tremendously trying to pay two car notes and the insurance. I was placed in extreme financial distress. In addition, I also came to realize that based on my situation at the time it is highly unlikely that someone with my income would even qualify for that particular loan.\n\nThis loan has caused me financial turmoil.

For them to do so, I am required to submit a copy of a current billing statement. One might imagine that this would be a simple request for Aidvantage to fulfill ; but the past month or so that I've spent trying to contact them to secure this document seems to suggest otherwise ( and also seems to reflect a larger, more concerning trend of incompetence and complete lack of ability to effectively service their \" customers '' ). The following paragraphs contain a brief rundown of events : On XX/XX/XXXX I received email correspondence from the U.S. Department of Education with information about preparing for the continuation of student loan payments. In this email, I was advised that I could expect to receive a current billing statement from Aidvantage at least 21 days before my payment is due ( XX/XX/XXXX ). Upon receipt of this message, I registered an account online with Aidvantage, and took care to ensure that all of my personal information was correct and up to date to ensure that there would be no issue in receiving further communication from the lender.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from Aidvantage which indicated that they were to have started sending out billing statements on XX/XX/XXXX. I had not gotten anything in the mail by that point, so I waited for a few days to accommodate mail delivery service times. A week later, on XX/XX/XXXX, I still had not received any correspondence, so I attempted to call Aidvantage customer service during regular business hours in hopes of getting some kind of update. I sat on hold for over an hour before needing to get on with my day, so no contact was made.\n\nLater that day, I logged back on to my account to see whether any of this information was available for me to access electronically. It was not. I did, however, notice that Aidvantage advertised a Live Chat feature built into their website, which presumably would connect me to someone who may be able to assist with my request. But when I tried to use this feature, I was met with an error message which prevented me from making any kind of contact. I figured that there was some kind of technical issue going on, and resolved to give them a couple of days to fix it before trying again.\n\nThe following day, XX/XX/XXXX, I received another email from Aidvantage with the subject line : \" Your monthly billing statement is ready. '' I opened the email and saw that it contained a link that said \" View Statement. '' This was great news -- problem solved, right? But when I clicked on the link, I was directed to a broken webpage that did not allow me locate any useful information ( I've attached a screenshot of the page that I took this evening. It's still broken ). I tried again to call customer service and utilize the non-functional chat feature, neither of which yielded any kind of response. At this point, I'm starting to wonder whether this company actually has anyone working for them On XX/XX/XXXX, I had a bit more time to spare, so I tried to call in again. I waited on hold for nearly 2 hours this time before giving up, and checked the website again to see if the Live Chat function was back online. I repeated this process over the next several days ( with varying hold times ) while keeping a close eye on my physical mailbox in hopes that I would still receive a statement as promised. No success.\n\nFast forward a bit, and it's XX/XX/XXXX, and my payment is due in less than 2 weeks, and I still haven't gotten any information or communication from Aidvantage. Everything is still broken. Incredibly frustrated, I started combing through their website to find any kind of useful information. I finally located a link that would allow me to email their customer service team, so I did. Upon submitting my request, I received an automated email which advised that I could expect a response within 1-2 business days. It's been about 5 business days, and I still have yet to hear back.\n\nToday, XXXX, I found myself stuck in traffic, so I decided to try calling customer service again. I wasn't hopeful, but it's become apparent to me that my options here are pretty limited. After an hour, I was finally connected to a representative.\n\nI spoke with the gentleman on the other line, and repeated my original request for a billing statement. He was a nice guy, but didn't seem to have a clue as to what I was actually looking for. It took me about 15 minutes of explaining, but he was finally able to confirm what I was needing and let me know that a copy of a statement will be mailed to me within the next 5-7 business days. I asked whether he could just send me an email instead, but he advised that would not be possible. Doesn't make a ton of sense to me, but I didn't bother asking why. I was mostly just happy to discover that Aidvantage actually has employees.\n\nNow, assuming that a billing statement has actually been placed in the mail and I can actually expect to receive it this time ; I will not be able to access it or submit it my employer until after my first payment is XXXX XXXX XXXX. My recent interactions ( or attempts thereof ) with Aidvantage have not inspired confidence that they will actually follow through on their commitment, which is why I wanted to ensure that a formal complaint was documented.\n\nI know that this is a relatively minor issue, but if my recent experience is indicative of \" the norm '' in dealing with this company, then I can only imagine what other customers have had to go through while preparing for repayment. The financial stress of repayment is enough of a burden on the consumers, and it's only been magnified by Aidvantage 's utter lack of care or respect for their clients. Frankly, I'm amazed that this firm has been allowed to take on the responsibility of administering something so impactful to the lives of thousands ( millions? ) of people. I'm not sure whether there is a standard of care for these kinds of organizations, but I'm certain that Aidvantage has no interest in establishing or adhering to it.\n\nAlso, the Live Chat is still broken.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "student_loan", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"lender_or_servicer": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "struggling_to_repay": "Struggling to repay your loan", "getting_a_loan": "Getting a loan"}, "label": "lender_or_servicer", "src": "cfpb_issue_student_loan"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/7654980", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/78280a9b9479a12df510", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6154, "company": "Maximus Federal Services, Inc.", "date_received": "2023-10-06", "product_raw": "Student loan", "issue_raw": "Dealing with your lender or servicer", "sub_issue_raw": "Problem with customer service", "text_sha256": "78280a9b9479a12df510de003f0c7fd7d3d6ba8768698599991ff3eabc907837", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "Surge XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX This fraudulent predatory company has disparately affected my life and credit report as an XXXXXXXX XXXX mother of a XXXXXXXX XXXX, ultimately preventing me from moving forward in my path to home ownership because of their inaccurate reporting and discriminatory practices of not communicating or responding to consumers in a reasonable timeframe thus far violating multiple Fair Credit Regulations with False statements, and refusal to notify management when escalation is requested, are just some of the negative occurrences I endured through my time with this card, junk fees, ontop of inaccurate credit reporting, it simply feels like I have been scammed. My child begun having uncontrollable XXXX back in late XXXX of XXXX. Which ultimately, she was diagnosed as XXXX and I had to go on XXXX to care for her because we were spending majority of our months in the hospital while she was under testing repeatedly or recovering from XXXX. I did notify this company of the situation and asked them if they had anything to help offset the payments that would be upcoming because of our current medical emergency in XXXX which at that time I was having pregnant having complications with my XXXX, XXXX and had a sick child mid diagnosis of a XXXX would have.. I called twice begging for help or solutions but was told nothing was avaible. The first charges appear in the first week of XXXX but the site said my first bill wasnt due XX/XX/XXXX on the first date there which means the first actual bill I was responsible for since card only arrived to me in XXXX wouldve been due XXXX and they told me that my account was too new and they had no options to defer/ or hold off the payments, to avoid fees or prevent damage to my credit. I then called back in XXXX after I took a hardship Withdrawal from My XXXX to rectify all of my affairs and requested to speak with a XXXX to pay my bill and to see if, they could possibly remediate the harm the late remarks had done to my report, like my other credit card company just did .. remove some of the fees or reporting of late payments whatever and give me a payment plan so I could pay to get our affairs back on track. I informed the agent that I hadnt heard from them since I called to tell them that I had left my wallet in an XXXX when rushing my sick child to hospital back in XXXX XXXX so I wasnt even sure if all the charges was mines cuz I literally only had the card XXXX before it was lost and when I logged online I seen lots of fees but I had informed them That my child was living in hospital and I was out of work dealing with that, and I too was dealing with sickness wise. First He said that I never called, and called me a liar and begun being extremely combative then said XXXX no I did actually call in to report the card lost/stolen in XXXX once he seen it on the account but he said they never notated my account about the hardship and I said thats fine sir please just get a XXXX obviously u cant assist and I need to get this bill Paid so I can fix my credit and buy a house and this is the only thing holding me back and I do have my documentation from our hardship. He refused to get XXXX and kept saying a XXXX wont return any fees if I was looking to beg or remove the remarks From my credit that it wasnt possible and I could just pay with him and asking why I wanted a XXXX.!? And saying he didnt have to get a XXXX cuz he could assist me or just close my card, I said sir dont touch my card.. please get a manger. He said I had blocked them from calling my phone previously with a very sarcastic tone as to infer my predicament was my problem and I asked, sir why are u being so aggressive and XXXX Like nobody from surge or XXXX Has ever called me, then he said that they say a diff name when they call, XXXX like so how am I supposed to know who you all are if you all Are using a different name when u call?? XXXX I blocked a number I didnt know or company saying a name I have no dealings with. Please sir make it ..make sense He said that they say XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX like how on earth would I know that surge is credit management?, instead of XXXX or the actual Bank lender I entered a contract with?. I then said sir I dont care honestly, my child is in the hospital, XXXX XXXX and sick and I just want to get these bills in order but not until I speak to management .... I need a XXXX so they can fix this account and I can get it paid up to date .. he refused, I asked him over XXXX times to escalate the call and transfer me to a XXXX even to XXXX XXXX I felt like I was physically literally begging and begun crying out loud in the phone because of this hsrrament as my child is in a helpless position I didnt understand why i deserved to be handled this way and XXXX just tryna correct my affairs and this random worker is being rude XXXX, belligerent and difficult. He then begin putting me on holds and acting like he was waiting on a XXXX. He did this for XXXX mins and kept picking up every XXXX Mins .. laughing saying all the managers were in meetings an I could just handle whatever I wanted with him but I insisted it wasnt a problem I would wait please get a XXXX .. he placed me on hold again and I said thats fine Ill wait .. he had me wait another XXXX mins before picking up the phone saying all managers are busy they wilCall u back and hanging up abruptly after me being in phone over XXXX waiting on a XXXX so I could pay my bill and possibly have XXXX of the fees fixed and complain on the guy I was on the phone with treating me so poorly. I waited over a week and a half for someone to return my call. They never did, after XXXX weeks I finally called back very upset and asked to be escalated to a XXXX and to speak with someone .. the woman then finally transferred me -and I told the XXXX what happened .. she apologized and when I told her what happened and that I was literally just tryna pay my bill But request a fee reimbursement she said my account had been closed earlier that week and I was livid because it was in their recorded call that I called to fix my account over XXXX and half weeks prior and their employee refused and lied and kept me on the line and never got a XXXX so I could pay or fix the account and this XXXX said she could see the call they would have to listen to it and investigate and would return my call so I could make payment or rectify .. and reopen once the call is reviewed and claimed they was going to investigate and call me back within XXXX business days. Its been 2 months, I have never heard back from them and they have charged off my account and reported months late where there legally wasnt a bill on the account the I was responsible for and have ultimately caused adverse actions in my life and credit and great harm to come to my XXXX child who depends on my credit and livilhood being intact to keep a roof on our head when shes not facing an medical emergency .. and I find it very offensive that because I was an XXXX American woman reporting a hardship With XXXX I was treated less then fair and like a second rate citizen .. not given the same service as those who find themselves in similar situations with different skin tones. Or even the opportunity to fix this account that they had documented proof of me calling to fix in more then enough time. This company records their calls .. please pull the tapes, I called to fix my bill and was mocked, nitpicked and ridiculed by their representative for our XXXX and hardships who was rude, abrasive, XXXX and refused me the service of getting a XXXX to complete my transaction and now I am the only person suffering. In accordance to regulation Z I had the right to speak with management and dispute or request a few investigation of any late charge, or disrespect encountered while I had this card and they have violated the basics of fair lending by allowing representatives to deny consumers access to management, disputes, and other wise harrowingly refusing to service an already distressed card member is not only sick but predatory when they refused to actually investigate my claims or respond notify me of results in a timely manner. They have written the debt off and claimed it as profit and received a XXXX for it but is now currently reporting negatively on my report and never actually conducted an investigation, or provided proof if investigation or resolution nor rectified the XXXX behavior of their employee or notified me of any of it and have ignored my atrempts to get answers. And now is having another company pursue this debt that shouldnt even exsist if they had competent workers who actually investigated disputes or got the manger when begged to be allowed to speak with management on my then open account, So now despite XXXX getting paid from writting the debt off on their taxes they are looking to be paid twice actually by illegally discharging premature because it was literally bit over 60 days past due, the fees on the card were from junk fees piled on by them of over XXXX and not properly investigating or responding in a timely matter after being notified of the mishaps. On top Of the countless junk fees, a late fee for a bill that wasnt due yet, and countless other they added to the balance and inaccuracies in the payment history.

If this wrong is not rectified I will be seeking legal counsel to sue them in court for the disparate treatment, XXXX antics of the guy who laughed at my childs XXXX and mocked my hardship, XXXX to get a XXXX and seeking monetary reparations for the lack of investigation, correspondence in a timely manner as well as formal acknowledgment of their wrong doing from the harm their negligence has caused to my credit and life to suffer since I was denied the chance to pay or rectify an open active account and subsequently punished for reporting this by a person acting as a representative for them, who closed my account premature without consent. They closed my account and never investigated even after I called back to notify their management and have calls pulled, I have not been contacted back or notified of anything. No one reached out to me with an update to the investigation or dispute and nothing was sent, in regards to the account being prematurely charged off. Please hold this predatory XXXX company responsible for these actions. I saved a screenshot from the halfway through that phonecall when the representative cursed me, laughed, mocked my dire needs situation/ hardship and refused to assist me or get XXXX then kept me on an extended hold pretending to get management just to hang up XXXX mins later despite it already being a XXXX min convo of us going back and forth and me begging for a XXXX. XXXX of the reporting dates on the credit report clearly showing this card was closed premature. The XXXX XXXX XXXX was put in place to prevent these kinds of behaviors. This cant be legal and it feels unfair, predatory, prejudice and discriminatory. XXXX please hold them accountable for their actions and inactions as it regards me a protected class a pregnant XXXX American mother with a XXXX caring for a XXXX child with severe health issues. This complaint is on Surge XXXX, And XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX as the agent called them on the phone. They have not responded to any of my formal written letters that I mailed out either and are gaslighting claiming to have sold the debt to which obviously I already mentioned that they act as an intermediary company to them when the card is open so that is forsure double dipping which should be another crime. I did contact the credit bureaus since it seems to be impossible to reach this company, and they have failed at accurately making them verify the misinformation .. despite the proof being in the report and just been just as incompetent in getting this resolved or having the information on my credit report validated for accuracy to make my file more accurate. This ultimately is my last attempt to mediate before I file civilly for the disparate uncivil treatment and predatory practices this company is inflicting on minority borrowers seeking monetary compensation.\n\nXXXX received XX/XX/XXXX First bill was scheduled to be due XX/XX/XXXX yet it had a XXXX dollar late fee XXXX member fee, and XXXX more in late fees which would have meant the first XXXX late that could be reported would be XXXX how was the card then closed the very next month??? ontop of XXXX dollars in fees in XXXX not including interest And XXXX in fees in XXXX for a card not open more the 4 months and prematurely closed by an overzealous XXXX employee who refused to get the XXXX so I could pay my open card and have some of the fees disputed. Please make it ..make sense .. its predatory lending at its finest A XXXX balance with almost XXXX in fees XXXX months please review this company asap!!! And the only resolve is to have the card/ account completely removed From my credit history at this point if it cant be reopened and everything rectified I want my credit returned to the state it was in before they disparately denied me an m opportunity to service / dispute/ escalate to a manger and pay my bill and failed to investigate or update me at all in a timely manner", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "card", "src": "cfpb_product"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/8784547", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/d668d6f96372acbd9d4d", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 13750, "company": "Continental Finance Company, LLC", "date_received": "2024-04-16", "product_raw": "Credit card", "issue_raw": "Problem with a purchase shown on your statement", "sub_issue_raw": "Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement", "text_sha256": "d668d6f96372acbd9d4d15ca35571c4a14bec97c009cc53521f4d672be952862", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "We have an existing HELOC with TD Bank and they are sending us a lot of paperwork to review our loan. which is secured against our house. The problem is as follows : sending paperwork to the wrong address after we corrected it so we did not receive it. Sending us an email only on the XXXX. stating we have until XXXX XXXX to provide a lot of documents or they will term our loan out. I believe it is a loan they call XXXX, a term used within TD, which does not have an expiration date on it. So the contract was written incorrectly, in my estimation only. They are trying to push clients to terminate these loans and refinance. This is not our fault. XXXX should be looked at as a separate matter. We paid off our corporate loan, our HELOC on our second home, and maintain over {$700000.00} balance cash in the bank from the sale of that home. We were told our credit score was XXXX when in actuality it is XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. Also they said there is a judgement from XXXX XXXX ( which is incorrect ) for {$740.00}, which is a ridiculously small amount to bring up when compared to our timely payments on XXXX different accounts. We are working to have that eradicated. Even with that satisfied judgement my scores were that high. In the last five years we had XXXX late payments to TD on our mortgages, never delinquent. At this point, we owe {$100000.00} on a {$300000.00} credit line ( which we want to keep open ) on our HELOC and {$360000.00} primary mortgage which is secured by a property of {>= $1,000,000} with a {$700000.00} savings account. I want to keep our HELOC and not be forced out by TD. I have asked for a copy of the original contract that says they have the right to review it after 5 years and am yet to receive it.Their suggestion was to take our {$700000.00} of savings, put it with their wealth management team and be charges 1.4 % management fee per anum and then they would give us a {$300000.00} line against our stocks. It seems like a large conflict of interest and somewhat risky. I do not see where we have done anything wrong. I am XXXX, near retirement, and I want to keep that line to start a XXXX in Vermont. Incidentally, if they term us out, it will be a fixed payment over 10 or maybe 20 years but an interest rate of over 5.2 % and we are currently paying 3 %. But it is a fixed payment where we could not pay early or re-borrow again.

The lamps cost {$920.00}. The vendor did not offer any type of insurance for the purchase. This seemed like a very small operation and I was reluctant to order from them until I discovered that payment would be made through PayPal, which I expected would be a fair arbiter should problems arise.\n\nThe lamps were received on XX/XX/year> from an address in XXXX. They were left at in front of my house by the delivery carrier. The package was damaged and the packaging was completely inadequate for shipping such easily damaged items by international carrier. All three lamps were dented, and one had a piece broken off. The lamps were unusable.\n\nOn XX/XX/year> I emailed the vendor asking for a refund and offering to return the items if the vendor supplied a return shipping label.\n\nI did not receive a response to the email so I sent another email on XX/XX/year> with the same information.\n\nI sent a third email on XX/XX/year>.\n\nOn XX/XX/XXXX I was offered replacement items if I paid shipping cost, the amount of which was not disclosed. This was an unsatisfactory offer. As I was not responsible for the inadequate packing that resulted in damage and as the seller did not offer insurance at the time of original purchase, I did not feel that I should bear the cost of the sellers negligence. In addition, given the inadequate packaging, I was reluctant to encounter the same issue a second time.\n\nThere were many email exchanges over the next few days without the seller offering a substantively different resolution.\n\nI filed a complaint with PayPal, who had processed the charge, on XX/XX/year>. Through multiple exchanges the seller began to insist that the only resolution was for me to return the items after which I would get a refund of the amount paid. I was also required to return the items to XXXX rather than XXXX where the seller was ostensibly located. However, after checking with XXXX, the estimated cost of shipping to XXXX was {$1500.00}! The original purchase was {$920.00}. Therefore I was being asked to pay {$1500.00} to get a return of my initial {$920.00}.\n\nOn XX/XX/year>, when it became clear that the seller was not willing to take any responsibility for the negligent packaging that resulted in the damage, I escalated to a claim with PayPal. The seller kept making the same offer, a full refund of {$920.00} after I paid about {$1500.00} to return the items. I continued to respond that this was unacceptable. At XXXX point, PayPal asked me to accept or reject the offer. When I tried to respond, the only option I was given was to complete a form with return shipping information. Without shipping information, the form could not be submitted so there was no way to again indicate that the offer was not acceptable. In the notes section of the form, I explained that I was not accepting the offer and that I put in a tracking number of all zeroes and a carrier ID of No Carrier to be able to submit the form but that, in fact, I was not sending the item back.\n\nI even followed up with another note to the complaint file a few days later reconfirming that I was not accepting the offer and was not returning the items.\n\nPayPal closed the case in the sellers favor because I did not return the items. Not once in the entire string of messages did PayPal ever acknowledge that it made no sense to pay {$1500.00} to get {$920.00} back and, furthermore, this situation was completely the fault of the merchant who was taking no responsibility for the situation.\n\nOn XX/XX/year>, I called PayPal to discuss the case and to have them address the fact that not once did they acknowledge the lunacy of the sellers offer that would have cost me more money than I would have gotten back. When the customer service representative could not help, she transferred me to a supervisor. The supervisor kept repeating that I did not get a refund because I did not return the item. I repeatedly kept asking him to explain to me how it made sense for me to spend an additional {$1500.00} to get {$920.00} back. He never once answered the question. He just kept repeating the need to have returned the item.\n\nAt my request, he promised me a call back from another supervisor that same day. Now, XXXX hours later, I have not received a call back from PayPal.\n\nMy complaint with PayPal is that they did not attempt to adjudicate this situation in good faith. They kept repeating the sellers request that I ship the items back at my expense to receive a refund without acknowledging that the shipping costs, that the seller would not reimburse, were more than the cost of the items that would presumably be returned to me. PayPal never addressed my multiple comments about a proposed resolution that would have cost me more than doing nothing and losing my {$920.00}. Despite multiple requests PayPal did not explain the logic of the proposed resolution which, of course, did not make any sense. They failed in their duty to adjudicate my claim in good faith, siding instead with an unreasonable seller and never responding to an explanation of how the proposed resolution was fair.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "money_transfer", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"fraud_or_scam": "Fraud or scam", "money_not_available": "Money was not available when promised", "mobile_wallet_account": "Managing, opening, or closing your mobile wallet account", "unauthorized_transactions": "Unauthorized transactions or other transaction problem"}, "label": "unauthorized_transactions", "src": "cfpb_issue_money_transfer"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/10261648", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/fe461447c4f8c9b08ebd", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 5225, "company": "Paypal Holdings, Inc", "date_received": "2024-09-26", "product_raw": "Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service", "issue_raw": "Unauthorized transactions or other transaction problem", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "fe461447c4f8c9b08ebdb5195afa3a1bd9019cf1abf15249bcadabc70f88c505", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "*The numbers link to the attached pdf of emails.\n\nOn XX/XX/year>, my XXXX account was suspended due to \" unusual activity '' linked to my account, as mentioned in an email from XXXX ( XXXX # XXXX ) ( 6 ) ( 2 ).

This was my rebuttal to the first denial, and they have now denied me again, saying \" I did not fall under their policy and it will remain denied. '' It truly upsets me that they had all the information to see that this was a fraudulent listing and still refuse to support their members - But gave me back ATM withdrawals ( {$1800.00} ) that I gave them ( the scammers ) when they ( the bank ) said it would most likely not get approved.\n\nTo whom it may concern, I am a victim of an online rental scam from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, when I first reported the issue to the FTC. Over that course of time, I was working on upgrading my living situation from an apartment to a house for my family as our lease was coming to an end, and we provided a 60-day notice that we would be leaving so we could move into this house all while unknowingly being taken advantage of due to my veteran status. After giving our 60-day notice and realizing I was being scammed, the panic set it that there was a real possibility that we would be homeless and out a lot of money.\nTo explain what happened, I will do my best to take you through a very tough situation. To hold the house and take it off the market, I was asked to make three forms of payment first months, last months rent, and a security deposit which was a widespread request to rent a house and is something that is understood nationwide. Additional payments/fees were made per the agreement/contract as it was told that they would be taken off the future rent payments. I was in a very vulnerable state as I was on a new medication that I was prescribed to take due to my diagnosis from my service in the XXXX. This just added to everything that the scammers knew and took advantage of to make it known that I would be an easy target.\nIn addition to the scam against me, the scammers also stole the identity of the valid owner of the house I was going to be renting. I was shown/given documents that the house was owned by the said individual I was supposed to be talking to. The actual person who owns the property, when informed of this matter, said they had never spoken or heard of me and was unaware that their identity had been stolen. I will attach the documents that relate to this and show proof of what I saw.\nI went to the courthouse to go after the individual who scammed us in a civil matter ; they assisted me with figuring out the actual owner of the property. I tried to do the right thing and attempted to contact her work so I could inform her that her identity had been compromised ; they refused to take a message, and I was later reported to the police, quickly ending up on the wrong side of justice all do to a misunderstanding and the fact that I couldnt explain what had been going on. All I wanted to do was inform her of her identity being stolen and what was going on with her property. Later that night, I was contacted by an XXXX who informed me of what was going on as he called to question me and finally heard me out after scolding me about being a victim of a rental scam that should have been reported sooner. I was trying to do the right thing and help someone else out who was getting scammed by the same person I was, and now I just want this all past me so I can continue living my life without this hassle.\nAfter I had been through all these hectic situations and thought maybe this was all past me, the individual contacted me again, asking me to work with him and help scam other people. I informed the police, and they told me that nothing could be done, and my only option and hope left was to contact the bank to get my money back. So, this is where I am asking you for help in clearing up this matter and finally letting me move past it all.\nI have been a proud Navy Federal credit union member for several years and am to this day. This matter requires some additional and deeper investigation, hopefully resulting in a full refund of money. This was US currency stolen from me, not an online format I lost to trading. I ask that this be taken seriously as it is an actual claim of fraud and a legitimate claim of a scam that was reported to the XXXX Police Department ( Report # XXXX ) as well as the FTC ( Report # XXXX ). ( Files attached ) After I contacted the bank to start the fraud claim, I was issued a new checking account due to the fact that we werent sure if my previous information and financials had been compromised ; I received a new card and switched everything over to my new account. I was under the impression that things were being handled, and I was finally getting the help I needed. The bank returned the majority of the money I lost, which was amazing. All evidence and contact information was provided when filing my initial claim, and that is why I am disappointed in the way this claim was handled and the recent outcome. I was recently notified by email that an adjustment was being made to my account without any kind of warning and left me with a negative balance of {$5900.00} without any explanation. I find this very unprofessional and not living up to what the NFCU stands for.\nI was always under the impression that NFCU honored and protected their veteran clients from this kind of danger, especially when it involves the sensitive topic of possible veteran homelessness. As you can imagine, this was a very terrifying time for my family and me as we were not sure where we were going to live and out all this money due to the scam.\nI hope you can understand and see this as a serious matter that has only been causing more problems for me as the days go on.\n\nThe following information is all the contact information I have between the parties at hand.\n\nXXXX Email by the supposed owner of the house phone number is : I believe their name is XXXX XXXX the main person ) ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX Email provided by the supposed owner ; this is the person that was supposed to be delivering me the keys through shipment.\n- XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX Another person that reached out to me being the person brother : - XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Email : XXXX The attorney : XXXX Villa Email : XXXX Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX https : //www.timetasklogs.com/welcome/contact.php The website of the shipping company that was supposed to be delivering the keys and documents to the house I was supposed to be renting.\nhttps : //www.timetasklogs.com/welcome/check.php The tracking number for this is : XXXX The bank information that was shared with me : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Account number XXXX XXXX Routing Number : XXXX", "questions": {"issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"fraud_or_scam": "Fraud or scam", "money_not_available": "Money was not available when promised", "mobile_wallet_account": "Managing, opening, or closing your mobile wallet account", "unauthorized_transactions": "Unauthorized transactions or other transaction problem"}, "label": "fraud_or_scam", "src": "cfpb_issue_money_transfer"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/5790711", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/057cd96325bc2f49463f", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6662, "company": "NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION", "date_received": "2022-07-20", "product_raw": "Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service", "issue_raw": "Fraud or scam", "sub_issue_raw": "", "text_sha256": "057cd96325bc2f49463fb79ed52ec607d61ee786d9ea266f965616ac93890d94", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}} {"state": "First, let me start with a 'Thank You ' for staff at this agency and their previous help to me to try to open this communicae with some positive energies since your agency for the situations you can investigate does actually get results at an Individual level and in quicker time.\n\nI am hearing I must include a note for myself and good spirits that when I was falsely XXXX and XXXX in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX via the us consulate, XXXX XXXX, then XXXX starting XX/XX/XXXX a contrived situation because of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX to force me off the land XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I was trying to help save I had heard a connection from FTC and something went wrong in that pulling on me although/albeit there were other events occurring simultaneously.

She stated I could go and try to use the ATM but I was not allowed to make a cash advance that something was wrong with USBANK side of transactions. They didn't explain how it couldn't work as a cash advance that I previously conducted but that the card would work from the ATM. I didn't want to handle money through the ATM so I admidt I got angry and didn't attempt using the ATM.\n\nAccording to the USBANK FOCUS debit card updates I viewed yesterday dated from XXXX?

It's 28 hours and still no response back.\nI see on the web browser that for two months prior to my search today people have had money stolen from them including federal unemployment money by this bank that the bank is not responding to anyone through any contact method.

After responding to the text, I received another text showing a debit to my checking account, also not authorized by me. I immediately called Wells Fargo and told them that my account had clearly been hacked and to shut down my checking and savings accounts with them.\n\nAfter watching several more transactions being deducted from my account via text alerts on my phone, I was informed from the customer representative to whom I was speaking that your company actually had video footage of a man at a Wells Fargo ATM machine in XXXX XXXX Texas, withdrawing money from my account matching the time stamp of the withdrawal from my account. I live and was in XXXX at this time with the ONLY debit card issued on this account in my possession. Also, I am the ONLY authorized user on my account.\n\nWhen trying to get into my account while on the phone with the bank, I discovered that my password had been changed thereby locking me out of my own account. Upon further discussion with your representative, I was told that someone had called the bank and verbally requested {$4000.00} be transferred from my savings account, which they willingly did without my approval or verification.\n\nWhen asked to see the photos of the man at the Wells Fargo ATM and hear the phone recording of the call when Wells Fargo transferred my money in my savings account to my checking account, I was refused.\n\nOn the Wells Fargo website, it says to Contact us immediately if you suspect fraud on your account ( XXXX ) or you responded to a suspicious email, text message, or phone call. When you call, we will review your accounts, identify all unauthorized transactions, and help keep your accounts secure.\n\nI did so in my call telling them that NONE of the transactions made on XX/XX/2021 were made OR authorized by me, and they failed miserably in keeping my XXXX secure as many transactions continued to be made that day. They actually assisted the thief when your company allowed a phone request of a transfer of {$4000.00} from my savings account into my checking account with NO notification to or verification from me. These large purchase amounts and the location from where they occurred do not match up with my normal daily account activity.\n\nFurthermore, I was also NOT notified by the company when the person changed my password on my account. However, when I did this after this theft, I immediately got an email from Wells Fargo telling me that my password had been changed. On XXXX of my countless phone calls to Wells Fargo, all of my account information was verified as correct. Why did I not receive an email telling me that my password had been changed by the person stealing from me but did when I completed this action?\n\nTheir website says that they protect my data by doing the following : XXXX XXXX XXXX We are helping to keep your money safe by monitoring your accounts and XXXX contact you if we detect unusual activity. If it's not your purchase, we will help you resolve it. We use various methods to contact our customers including email, text, push notification from the mobile app, or phone call. When we contact you, we will not ask for your card PIN, access code, or your online banking password.\nIf your banking behavior differs from your usual activity, we XXXX send you an access code to confirm your identity, prevent certain types of transactions, or restrict account access ( including card declines ). Further proof of identity XXXX be required before we restore online access.\n\nThe website goes on to say that customers are covered with account protections by stating the following : Unauthorized Account Activity Under federal law, Regulation XXXX ( Electronic Fund Transfer Act ) provides certain protections to consumer customers when there is unauthorized account activity. Regulation XXXX covers transfers of funds through electronic methods such as, the use of a debit or credit card, ATM withdrawals, and direct deposit activity through a checking, savings, or other consumer asset account at a financial institution used primarily for personal, family, or household purposes.\n\nXXXX XXXX XXXX Wells Fargo XXXX and XXXX XXXX come with XXXX Liability XXXX at no extra cost. You wont be held responsible for unauthorized transactions, so long as you report them promptly.\n\nBased on the companys promises, they failed to protect my data AND have NOT covered my account protections even though I notified them IMMEDIATELY when debits to my account showed up on my phone.\n\nOnce again, not only did they not protect me, the account holder ; they assisted the person who stole a combined total of {$4600.00} from my checking and savings accounts. I was told that my money would be returned to my accounts in totality within XXXX business days. That deadline passed on XX/XX/XXXX, and I still have not received my money that was taken from my accounts. I have also not been communicated with and have had to initiate communication with your company in order to find if any progress, or lack thereof, has been made regarding my case. And when I do talk with someone, nobody knows the facts of my case, and Ive had to repeat the events multiple times. And at the end of each conversation, nobody has offered any solutions to the problem.\n\nWhen I called the bank on XX/XX/2021, the last day of their own aforementioned timeline, I was told that my claim had been denied because of authorization by me of these transactions. That is complete and utter nonsense based on the proof that I gave in my phone call to you on XX/XX/2021 as well as their own admitted video footage of someone taking money from my account via a Wells Fargo ATM. There is also a phone recording of the person asking for the transfer of {$4000.00} from my savings account to my checking.\n\nIn short, Wells Fargo has failed me at every single turn, and did not upheld their promises to me as a customer nor your protection of my money.", "questions": {"product": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "Which kind of financial product is this complaint about?", "criteria": {"credit_reporting": "Credit reports, credit scores, or credit repair", "debt_collection": "Collection of a debt", "mortgage": "A mortgage or home loan", "bank_account": "A checking or savings account", "card": "A credit card or prepaid card", "student_loan": "A student loan", "money_transfer": "A money transfer, money service, or virtual currency", "vehicle_loan": "A vehicle loan or lease", "personal_loan": "A payday, title, or personal loan"}, "label": "bank_account", "src": "cfpb_product"}, "issue": {"type": "choice", "instructions": "What is the main problem the consumer describes?", "criteria": {"managing": "Managing an account", "closing": "Closing an account", "opening": "Opening an account", "charged_by_another_company": "Problem with a lender or other company charging your account", "low_funds": "Problem caused by your funds being low"}, "label": "managing", "src": "cfpb_issue_bank_account"}}, "_meta": {"id": "cfpb/6465046", "source": "cfpb", "group_id": "cfpb/528aa33fc61b73843b13", "variant": "clean", "length_bucket": "long", "chars": 6057, "company": "WELLS FARGO & COMPANY", "date_received": "2023-01-20", "product_raw": "Checking or savings account", "issue_raw": "Managing an account", "sub_issue_raw": "Funds not handled or disbursed as instructed", "text_sha256": "528aa33fc61b73843b13f1cf462c5dbce10ace78329b2390d5e4c6b0348edb29", "provenance": {"source": "CFPB consumer complaint database", "via": "hf:davidheineman/consumer-finance-complaints-large@44cfa170a402e254407470275ce05d7dcaccde30", "rights": "US government work (public domain)"}}}
