Consumer complaint: I have asked the collection company for verification of debt multiple times. I have asked for signed documentation by me, XXXX XXXX, that the debt is in fact mine. The collection company has refused to send me any documentation showing that the debt is in fact mine. The collection company has refused to speak with me because they believe I have an attorney. I have spoke with my bankruptcy attorney to get documentation for the bankruptcy and the listing of PFC on the bankruptcy and that is the only contact I have had with an attorney. I was making monthly payments on the account until I realized I am already paying the debt with another collection company. I believe that the debt is not my debt and can not prove that it is or is not because PFC refuses to give me any documentation that the debt is in fact my debt. I would like a statement of account, and admission agreement or authorization of service on my account, proving that the account is in fact my account. 

Company response: Company believes it acted appropriately as authorized by contract or law
Consumer complaint: I was pre qualified for a loan through Wells Fargo & submitted all the documentation needed and myself, the listing agent, my real estate agent & the seller were told everything looked great. This went way past the due diligence period, I put down my earnest money, had the home inspected & had the appraisal completed. The closing date was scheduled for XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX I received a call that the property taxes were more than they anticipated, & to keep the debt ratio down, they needed me to put down another {$25000.00} and also told me I 'd need to switch my Homeowners Insurance to Option B, which was a higher deductible of {$2500.00} with poor coverage & no full replacement value to reduce my premium. My insurance agent refused to do this to protect my interest. As a result of these XXXX requests at the last minute, I had to back out of the loan. I lost the house, & now I 'm out all the money I put down because of their negligence in informing me of needing this additional money right before closing. They had all my information & knew the taxes for an entire month. What can I do to get Wells Fargo to reimburse me for my earnest money, inspection fee & appraisal fee. I 'm out {$2700.00}. That 's a lot of money for me when they are a Federal Bank & should take responsibility for their incompetence.

Consumer complaint: I have been a Macy 's customer for about 40 years. In XXXX 2015 I paid the account in full. In XXXX I received a statement stating I owed {$2.00} with no explanation. I tried calling but was left on hold or the call was dropped. In frustration, I went to the Macy 's store in XXXX, CA. 
They no longer have a credit office. One of the clerks called their credit department and it was explained the {$2.00} was for maintaining the account open!!! I was never noticed that if I have a XXXX balance I would be billed {$2.00} per month. The person agreed to waive the {$2.00}. charge and I told them I would be closing the account. I cut up our cards and sent them a letter telling them to close the account. Then I received a statement from Macy 's adding another {$2.00}. charge plus the {$2.00}. from the previous month for a total of {$4.00}. and giving me a credit on the account of {$33.00} stating it was a refund for a late fee. I did not pay any statements late. The are continuing to bill me {$2.00}. month for maintaining account that I closed in XXXX. I believe the {$2.00} a month fee is illegal. I want them to stop billing me and if they think I have {$33.00} credit, I want it mailed to me. If they are billing {$2.00} a month to XXXX of credit customers who have no balance due, they are billing the public XXXX of dollars a month for nothing.

Consumer complaint: I recently had debt to settle had no problems with that. I been trying to restore my history so if I owe I was pay. But XXXX capital management had a representative call my phone. When I ask for verification of the debt thats where it got out of hand. I was told they he was a lawyer which is a lie and that he did n't need to send me any info about the debt at all. Which scared me I recently had my bank info stolen. So i was a little unsure about just giving out my info. I wanted some simple paperwork to prove this person is legit. He got highly upset and ask if I had a lawyer because if not I will need one. I think it was a scar tactic. My I repeat he said he was with a law firm and not a collector. And that I wanted simple paperwork to be mail to me that is all. But no he hung up in my face. That after me threaten me to get a lawyer. I had no problems paying. I did a little resource may I add they called from a local number so I was scar at that. I try to google the number no businesses came up at all. I got even more scared. I thought somebody was trying to get into my bank info again. So I called the same number from another phone. It sent me to a operator. She told me it was alliant and they was trying to collect a debt. She ask who I was talk to. I could n't remember his name. She went me or I ask to be sent to a different person. I also google they and found a New York address and phone number. I called and got in touch with somebody. I told me it was alliant and ask for my name and that they was contacted to collect on a debt. I and to do all of that to verify the source was right. When the person who contacted me could have told me this. So I spoke to a rep. He insured that they are a debt collector and not a lawyer office. I told him that another rep said he was a lawyer. I guess he thought I was lying or he was trying to cover for his co-worker. I came to a settlement. I had no problem in doing so. I issue is the first rep misrepresented himself. I guess trying to scar me into paying. He was aggressive and hot tempted. And not willing to listen to he and trying to degrade me over the phone. I want the taped conversation of the first rep so I can pursue legal matters. He did n't have to lie about who he was I was at work and could n't talk I got confused and scared. I just had my bank info hacked. And some random number called and say do you have a lawyer well get one. If you do n't pay you need a lawyer. Like I was supposed to say well here is all my bank info. All I wanted was some simple paperwork. Or somebody that had a nicer and more calm attitude so we could resolve the issue. He stated I do n't need to give you any info at all I am a lawyer. I called the local non-emergency number because I was scared. I thought somebody was trying to steal my info. I did n't know what to do.

Consumer complaint: RE : Wells Fargo Home Loans XXXX and XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX NJ XXXX Loan # XXXX TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN : This serves as a Notice of Error as enacted by Consumer Financial Protection Bureau effective XX/XX/XXXX. 
We applied for a modification with our Servicer, Wells Fargo XX/XX/XXXX. We worked with a certified HUD Housing Counselor named XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, NJ. We worked with XXXX XXXX to provide Wells Fargo with a hardship letter, and all our documents that provide evidence we have the income to support modification mortgage payments. 
Despite our eligibility for a modification, Wells Fargo denied our loan modification request. Wells Fargo sent us a letter, dated XX/XX/XXXX, that stated we were denied, but they failed to provide a reason for the denial, as specified in the CFPB Modification Rules : 1. ) Denial of a loan modification option : A servicer that denies a borrower for any loan modification option must provide a written notice to a borrower stating the basis for the servicer 's denial. 
2. ) Net Present Value ( NPV ) Test : If an NPV test is the basis for a denial, a servicer must provide the borrower the inputs used in the NPV test. 
3. ) Investor Requirements : If an investor requirement is the basis for a denial, a servicer must describe the investor requirements ( simply stating that an investor requirement exists is insufficient ). 
4. ) Waterfalls : Servicers may follow investor " waterfalls '' to determine eligibility for particular loss mitigation options but must explain the existence of the waterfall as the basis for the denial of any loan modification option. 
We filed an appeal within the 30 days which was prepared and submitted by XXXX XXXX to Wells Fargo. Wells Faro denied our appeal, and once again we did not receive a detailed reason for the denial, pursuant to the CFPB regulations. 
We are disappointed that Wells Fargo continues to violate the CFPB Servicer Modification Rules. 
This is our family home and we have the income to support reduced mortgage payments. Please provide us with the level of detail required pursuant to the Rules so that we can address any perceived deficiencies. 
Thank you. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Consumer complaint: I have a U.S. bank XXXX XXXX credit card. I signed up for the card solely for the " Bonus Award Night '' benefit. I renewed my card and paid the {$75.00} annual fee on XXXX XXXX, 2015. I called on XXXX XXXX, 2015, to express my extreme disappointment about the loss of this benefit ( on XXXX XXXX, 2015 ) and asked for compensation in order to remain a cardholder. They promised XXXX bonus points and said that was the maximum. I was only awarded XXXX bonus points to my account. A friend was offered XXXX points and a {$75.00} credit for the annual fee. We both received our cards at the same time. Not only did U.S. Bank XXXX XXXX not provide me the points I was offered, they " short-changed '' me considerably in comparison to others. And if you read their terms for new cardholders, the Bonus Award Night is still listed, even though it ends on XXXX XXXX, 2015 ( https : //www.usbank.com/credit-cards/club-carlson-premier-rewards-visa-signature-credit-card.html )! I 'm now concerned about the ethical nature of this company.

Consumer complaint: XXXX XXXX XXXX has reported my account information incorrectly for many years. Despite repeated disputes, Experian always verifies the incorrect information. This has been disputed with Experian at least 10 times in the last 3 years Experian reports XXXX 2009 30days XXXX 2009 30 days XXXX 2009 120 Days XXXX 2009 90 Days XXXX 2009 Repossession XXXX 2009 30 Days This report is obviously incorrect and it should be noted that Equifax has completely different numbers that are also incorrect ( complaint filed also on XXXX ) Correct reporting is the account went 30 days late XXXX or XXXX of 2009, no payments were made ever again and the vehicle was repossessed in XXXX XXXX 2009 Both Experian and XXXX claimed to fully investigate and state these are the numbers provided by XXXX XXXX XXXX. Since both have different numbers someone has failed in fully investigating. There have been numerous phone calls with Experian supervisors who agree the reporting has to be incorrect but they never change it and any dispute comes back as verified My belief is that the credit bureaus have failed to investigate and XXXX XXXX XXXX has deliberately reported incorrectly to punatively keep this item on my credit reports beyond the mandated 7 year reporting period. ( complaint also filed on XXXX XXXX XXXX )

Consumer complaint: Macy 's did not ever notify me that Citi Bank was taking over management of their credit card. Had I known Citi Bank was managing the card I would have stopped using it and made arrangements to close it.

Consumer complaint: I have once again been locked out of my citi bank credit card access. This is the second example of this happening to me in the last six months. I previously had to cancel my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX due to the poor design on citibank 's web portal. The first instance was on XXXX XXXX of 2015. I was kept on the phone for over an hour and was refused assistance which resulted in me cancelling the card. 

Today I phoned in again as instructed by the web portal to XXXX, I spoke to XXXX, agent ID XXXX. She deleted my login and asked me to re-register. I was then once again unable to re-register the card. She refused to have someone call me back at a later time and gave no other solution.

Consumer complaint: I have XXXX balance transfers with the same credit card that were taken out at XXXX different times. XXXX is a large amount that was taken out first and is now no longer at 0 % -it is 16.99 %. 
The second XXXX is a much smaller amount and is still at 0 %. 
I noticed this month that the principal of my 16.99 % balance had only gone down about {$10.00}, where as my 0 % had gone down {$200.00}. This company is not applying the payment to the highest rate portion of my bill. I do not use this card for purchases and I am not able pay more than the minimum due. This applies to the minimum due and how they are dispersing it. When I called them they said they are allowed to do this and only are obligated to apply any amount above the minimum due to the highest APR.

Consumer complaint: I bought a XXXX inch FROM XXXX FOR XXXX FOR WHICH they then tacked on an extra XXXX. I originally bought a laptop for which I had to return because it was the wrong one. he charged a markup on this device but did not return it when it was credited I ended up being billed XXXX for a XXXX tv originally purchased from XXXX XXXX through XXXX. Then special financing who bought the loan was taking payments from my check at work. I took them off because I was on XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX I was getting sick pay 15 hours per month and the got all of my sick pay money. So I requested the company take them off of direct pay. they then hit my bank about 6 times I ended up payment XXXX in nonsufficient funds fees the bank credited me back XXXX. The company then went to my XXXX card which I did not authorize they only had it when I used it to pay them before. They stated that I gave them a copy of this card when I took out the loan, this was lie because I did not have this card then. I was reissued a card 4 months after I took out the loan. so after I paid them XXXX and agreed to pay the rest of the money the following month. The went into my account and charged XXXX without my permission ( I thought certain types of payments were not subject to collection -- this was XXXX check from ca state XXXX ) I had been on XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX the job paid them all of my sick pay which I requested and when I ran out they could no longer pay them, they got desperate and they took money from wherever they could. After getting the XXXX from my XXXX they stated that they received an additional XXXX check from my job which means they received XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. they billed me a final payment XXXX for the bill from XXXX. They were overpaid and they will not return my money I sent the bank the statement that I sent you because they stated I HAD TO PROVE THAT I DID NOT OWE THEM BEFORE THEY WOULD RETURN ANY MONEY. they gave me XXXX on my card but the company did not give me anything. I called today they stated that they sent it too the bank. I asked her two weeks ago why would you send my money to the bank when you received if from my job. The bank never received the money I never received it because they never sent it. I am of the opinion that since the bank paid me back half the XXXX they want to keep it all. See the attached statement where they billed me XXXX and they include XXXX as " other fees '' I do n't know what that is.

Consumer complaint: XXXX XXXX, Citibank and XXXX are aggressively pushing Citi AAdvantage cards with XXXX, XXXX or XXXX bonus miles if you sign up and meet a certain spending limit within a rapid time period. They actually hand out the applications forms on flights, there are ads all over airports and there are constant pop-ups on their website. What they DO N'T tell you is that if you 've opened another card in the past 18 months, you are ineligible for the bonus miles. Recently, I opened a card over the phone and the agent ASSURED ME I would get XXXX miles if I spent {$3000.00} in a month. I did it but the miles never appeared. I called multiple times and was told they were looking into it. I finally got a supervisor called XXXX in Kentucky who told me I would not be receiving the miles. This is the height of deceptive advertising. The credit card company has no record of the people in their accounts opening department telling me I would receive the miles ( they say they do not record conversations! ). The company is also enticing people to spend money rapidly on a credit card ( for the miles ) and furthermore they will not simply close the card down and transfer the credit limit to another existing card in a seamless way. Closing the card and losing the credit line adversely impacts your FICO score. Consumer BEWARE.

Consumer complaint: I re-financed with loanDepot two months ago. I have always made partial payments with my previous lender ( 2 per month from my banks bill pay service ). loanDeport advised that they do not take partial payments AFTER suckering me into signing closing papers. I informed loanDepot that if they had disclosed their terms in the closing documents I would have stayed with my previous lender or gone with another lender as I had other offers. loanDeport replied that if I continued to send partial payments XXXX things could happen " ( 1 ) returned to you, ( 2 ) applied to your loan, ( 3 ) accepted but held in a non-interest bearing unapplied funds account until you send us additional funds sufficient to equal a full periodic payment due. '' I replied that option 3 was OK with me as this is what my previous lender has done. loanDepot also informed me that the only way they took partial payments was if I signed up for their " Budget Plan ''. In other words they want to force me to give them control of my payments and let them have my bank information. I did review all my closing documents and loanDepot 's only disclosure was the amount of my monthly payment and the date is was due. No disclosure that I had to make the entire amount in one payment. 
I made a partial payment of {$500.00} on XXXX/XXXX/16 and loanDepot choose to apply the payment as additional principal.
