Consumer complaint: A fraudulent marketing firm asked me to be a mystery shopper. They gave me a check to deposit in my account to cover my activities on their behalf. I deposited the check and waited for the check to clear. I checked with Suntrust on whether the check had cleared on the XXXX of XXXX in person. At that time they up sold me on a credit card and did not recommend any action on my part. Then I called a week later, the marketing firm was asking me to complete the store evaluation, suntrust 's person on the phone told me my account was being closed. At the time I had {$1300.00} in the account. I did not understand. I recieved a form letter that said the check was being held pending investigation and my account was frozen because the amount of the check was greater than the amount in the account. I tried accessing my account online and it did not exist according to the Web site. On the XXXX they sent the check back and charged me a retuned check fee and an overdraft fee. I had not removed any money from the account. XXXX XXXX I received a check in the mail for $ XXXX {$48.00} I went into the branch to find out what was happening and they cut up my debit card and said they were severing their relationship with me. This is while I have a credit card with them and an unreleased mortgage. They foreclosed on my house after refusing to refinance and refusing to modify after I paid the mortgage for a year and a half while unemployed and under employed and maintainted the mortgage on another home. I was homeless and living in my car while paying them. I was working and earning {$3300.00} per month while the mortgage was {$2600.00} and condo fee {$460.00}. that is a whole other story. It is just to say that my relationship with suntrust has been too long and they have made my life more difficult and I just feel like they messed with me again and stole {$36.00} dollars from me. They sold my house out from under me and have not released the debt because the worth of the house was more than my remaining mortgage and $ XXXX more than they sold it for. I have no idea how to get rid of this albatross. I would like to sever my relationship with them but I do not know how to do it. Really from this interaction all I want is my overdraft fee back and the credit card request off of my credit report

Consumer complaint: When paying rent for a shared household, my roommate accidentally wrote a check for rent for the entire house on a check from my checkbook instead of his own and sent it in. When the check was cashed, it overdrew my account by a large amount, and I was charged {$93.00} in overdraft fees. I called the bank and asked that the overdraft fees be removed. I did not think that the check should have been cashed since it did not have my signature on it. XXXX My roommate signed his name ). I spoke with a few people at the bank, and they refused to remove or reimburse the overdraft fees. When I explained that my roommate wrote on my check on accident and that it did n't have my signature, I was told " who 's fault is that? '' and that they go through XXXX of checks and ca n't check all of the signatures. I felt that just because they ca n't look at all the signatures, does n't mean that the signature does not matter. I gave up arguing with them after this and closed the account a couple weeks later. I would like to be reimbursed for the overdraft fees.

Consumer complaint: Sallie Mae has lied to me, back stabbed me as many ways as possible. They have taken money from me, they have over-drafted my bank account, they have harassed my co-signer that is a XXXX veteran battling XXXX. All I tried to do was get my payments down just a little until I found a job, and nothing. I either make too less, or my co-signer makes too much. I recently was accepted to a program on XX/XX/XXXX to bring my payments down to {$190.00} a month if I paid of one of my loans, and I did. All I had to do was call back and set it up, and they said I was n't qualified for the loan payment I was told I was qualified for! This first started on XX/XX/XXXX where I paid {$150.00} loan forbearance, and two months later, they said I never paid {$150.00} but it is in my bank statement stating I did! So they never gave me the loan forbearance, literally stole money from me, then continued to harass my co-signer who is very ill. Next, I paid {$140.00} to pay off a loan, then they authorized it 2 times in my bank instead of 1 time, which put my bank in the negative leaving me with XXXX overdraft fees ( This was the loan I was told to pay off before I can get the $ XXXX monthly payment that I qualified for ) I had my bank fax them 3 times to show it was Sallie Mae that caused the overdraft, they still refused to acknowledge it was. I am a military veteran, and I have never been treated in such a manner in my entire life. Every time I call, no one knows what is going on, it is always different information. Please, for the love of God, can someone help me out?

I have requested that they mail me a copy of my signed authorization form that gave them the right to view my credit within five ( 5 ) business days so that I can verify its validity and advised them that if they can not provide me with proof that I authorized them to view my credit report then I am demanding that they contact the credit bureaus immediately and have them remove the unauthorized and fraudulent hard inquiry immediately.

It has been three months since we submitted the form, and we have received no response, despite a promise for a response in less than 30 days.

Consumer complaint: I was issued a checked by my employer that was drawn off a Wells Fargo bank account. I went to the bank to cash it at the Wells Fargo location on XXXX in XXXX, IL. The personal banker left me sitting for over an hour to come back and tell me they have never seen a check And the check was fraudulent. I said how can you say that? He said we are confiscating this check for further review but as it stands it 's not real. I was treated like a common thief. I was made to feel because I was XXXX XXXX that I could n't possibly be cashing a XXXX check. He gave me his card I emailed my employer and the company that is our payroll processor and included him on the email to them about the incident. They all replied the check was a valid check and not sure why Wells Fargo treated me the way they did. All week I never heard from WF even though they were on the emails regarding the chk. My employer went ahead and stopped pay on the check to get the funds to me and reissued as a direct deposit. I get an email today from a manager telling me in an email that they reviewed the check and that the check had a stopped pay on the check. He was implying I brought the check in when I knew it had a stop pay on it. That just was n't the case the check did not get stopped until after I notified my employer of the foul treatment and WF keeping the check and still a week later still implying I am a common thief.

Consumer complaint: I filed an Qualified Written RESPA request for information with my servicer on XXXX XXXX, 2015. They completely ignored it. Then, after waiting for a while and receiving no acknowledgment, I filed an complaint with you and re-send the RESPA request to BSI Financials on XXXX XXXX, 2015. This time, because i file a complaint with you, I did get a response. However, the response was not complete and did not contain important information material to the review of my loan. In their response, XXXX XXXX, a BSI financial complaint resolution specialties, writes that she finds my request " overboard or unduly burdensome ''. Interesting choice of words since, the RESPA GUIDELINES are quite clear about what information can be requested and that the Servicer must comply with the request. The RESPA guideline do not say that a Loan servicer or Lender can pick and choose what information to provide and what is burdensome and therefore can be skipped. I strongly demand that they compl with RESPA guidelines and provide complete information as per my qualified written request. If they do not have proper documentation for this loan they should forfeit the rights to foreclose on the property. 

In addition, They have been using wrong name on all correspondence, notice of default and notice of sale. My name Is XXXX XXXX XXXX not XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Law requires that all notices including but not limited to Notice of default and notice of sale must be corrected and issued again. Or, please provide documents showing how any why it was necessary to issue notices to wrong name and thus wrong person. According to the California 's NON-JUDICIAL foreclosure law, all information contained in the foreclosure communication or notice is must me truthful and correct. Notices containing untruthful information such as wrong name and addressed to the wrong person are null and void. 

Please understand they are trying to foreclose on my family home without proper documents, process and with untruthful information. Their assertion that my request causes unduly burden on their institution, is insensitive, disrespectful and most importantly points to a fraud. I respectfully demand that they Immidialaty dismiss all foreclosure activities. follow the California 's NON-JUDICIAL foreclosure law and comply with the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, 12 U.S.C. Section 2605 ( e ).

Consumer complaint: There are XXXX debts originally owed to XXXX ; the first with a last known balance of approximately {$5000.00} and the other with a last known balance of approximately {$2800.00}. Over the course of 16 months we 've seen the balances of these debts increase by over 150 % each. As of this writing, XXXX hired collections servicer, ACCTCORP OF SOUTHERN NEVADA, has filed a suit against us alleging that the balance of the aforementioned debts are now {$14000.00} and {$7500.00}, respectively. This is an absolute outrage! Especially since these new amounts which equate to over 160 % appreciation are well in excess of the 24 % penalty rate that XXXX has in their own documentation. Furthermore, in doing the math in the summons that we received, we found that ACCTCORP, again, miscalculated the total amounts i.e. the itemized amounts in the summons do NOT add up to the total amount for which they are suing both my husband and I. We strongly feel that ACCTCORP numbers are highly dubious and that the final amount being sought is comprised of exorbitant interest fees! 

REFERENCE INFORMATION : ACCTCORP OF SOUTHERN NEVADA Account No. XXXX

Consumer complaint: My father died in XXXX, 2015 leaving his assets in a trust. As successor trustee I am liquidating all of the assets and distributing the proceeds to the beneficiaries of the trust. I have had trouble doing so with XXXX asset, a certificate of deposit with e-loan bank. I first sent the required information to what turned out to be the wrong address for the bank on XXXX XXXX, 2015. I resent all of the information ( death certificates, trust information, instructions ) to the correct address on XXXX XXXX. When I had not heard anything, I called e-loan bank around XXXX/XXXX/2015. I was told that the letter of instruction had to be notarized. In my previous conversations, I was not told this requirement and none of the other banks I worked with required this. 

I sent the notarized letter of instruction to E-Loan bank on XXXX/XXXX/2015. On approximately XXXX/XXXX/2015 I called e-loan bank and was told that my letter of instructions had not been received. It turns out that all of the offices of e-loan bank are located in XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX even though their mailing address is in XXXX XXXX, XXXX. The representative told me they were having trouble getting mail from the XXXX XXXX office. I had another letter notarized and tried sending it directly to the XXXX XXXX office at the address I was given but it was return undeliverable. 

On approximately XXXX/XXXX/2015 I again called e-loan bank and was told that my letter had been received and had been sent to the legal department for research. When no check had been received on XXXX/XXXX/2015, I called once again and was told the check had been mailed on XXXX/XXXX/2015. It is now XXXX/XXXX/2015 and the check has not arrived. It is not possible to speak with anyone at e-loan bank who has any authority. There is apparently no one in the United States I can communicate with. When the account was opened, there was no indication that this bank was anything but a bank operated totally within the United States.

Consumer complaint: I originally submitted a complaint based on denial of the short sale because of affordability, they agreed they were wrong because I am in the military XXXX VA. Now mt problem is with the counter offer price they asked for on XXXX XXXX. The comps for the fair market value are around XXXX. They originally countered at XXXX back in XXXX 2015. This time they countered with the same buyer for XXXX. I am attaching the comps that were requested when we first disputed the counter offer. Nobody has returned my calls from Wells Fargo, and I have called several times as well as left messages. I would like to know what basis they are coming up with this sale price, especially when the buyer 's bank goes for an appraisal it will not be anywhere near XXXX. They have come down XXXX from XXXX, but are still extremely high on their asking price. Why would anyone purchase a home for more than it is worth, and what bank would loan them money for a home that was n't worth the asking price? I truly do n't understand and feel XXXX XXXX is taking advantage of the situation. I have a buyer, ready to purchase the condo for fair market value, why would they intentionally sabotage the deal with such an absurd counter offer? Would they rather I let it foreclose? I would like an answer to the ultimate question and what their appraisal found the fair price should be, based on the comps I am including.
