Not changing my address through the XXXX XXXX, I month after month contacted B.B. directly to change my address, given their C.S. reps. my inform, yet it never changed. Each time I called I would ask them to verify the new address and give it again. In the 5th month of calling, I asked to speak with manager and was told by him it was " a courtesy to receive a statement '', I said they were incompetent. After the assault I moved from the address they had on file. B. B. raised my minimum pay. and I did n't know that with out receiving the statements so it was sent to collections. In moving back to XXXX. after the man was in jail, I spoke with collections, wrote out everything sending documentation. I know the man that tried to kill me purchased the laptop on my account. I received a letter from B.B. stating I won my case, they would remove the purchase, all fees and penalties and repair my credit in 3 months.

I was told they sold it to them and now want me to press charges against the man for identity theft ; I refused. He will soon be released and when he does I will not run for my life again over a {$650.00}. laptop. How can this be? The letter states that after investigation they removed disputed charges and any related fees and interest. I am uploading the document sent on XX/XX/XXXX. I have spent two years recouping from this ordeal and they have added undue stress to my life and ruined my credit. Please I need your help.

Consumer complaint: I was trying to make 1/2 a mortgage payment each time I got paid ( bi-weekly payments ) starting XXXX 2016. This was paying early, but I wanted to even out my bi-weekly budget and wanted the payment to come out early in the period. For payment due XX/XX/XXXX and late XX/XX/XXXX, I was paying 1/2 after XX/XX/XXXX the previous month, with the 2nd half paid after XX/XX/XXXX - so that the second payment would be received by the mortgage co. shortly after the XXXX. 

XX/XX/XXXX I got a call about being past due. I explained the situation and was told it would be fixed. I made an effort to pay 5 days later than I had been doing thinking that might help, but then I got a call XX/XX/XXXX saying I was past due. I agreed at that time I would not pay 1/2 payments anymore, and was told it would be resolved by XX/XX/XXXX. As of a late notice dated XX/XX/XXXX, I am late a full payment ( not just 1/2 ) as well as having late charges in the amount of {$99.00}.

Consumer complaint: I have been dealing with debilitating medical issues since six months after graduating from college. I applied for XXXX clearance of my loans through SallieMae and was denied the first time around. I filed a complaint and within a week was asked by SallieMae to send in a new XXXX application. As frustrating as it was to have to ask the doctor to again fill out paperwork that she had already filled out I complied. My account was apparently placed on an administrated forbearance while the application was processed. However, I was not notified that this was the case ( and my elderly grandmother, who is the cosigner, kept receiving calls and mailings asking for payments, which she made ). After waiting for months for information on the application I received a bill for a very random amount. I called to inquire and after being put on hold for almost an hour and being transferred four times I was finally informed that my XXXX application had been approved. They told me to ignore the bill that everything would be cleared by the following week. After speaking to my grandmother I found out that she had made a payment of several hundred dollars just a few days before and the money was taken despite the XXXX application having been approved!!! It has been a few weeks now and I just received a statement that my monthly payment of more than {$500.00} is due in XXXX! I just called and was informed that I should just ignore it and that it should be cleared before the payment is due. I will try to explain this to my grandmother ( who is nearly deaf ) and hope that she does n't pay the bill again. The customer service and communication of SallieMae has been both manipulative ( in taking advantage of my Grandmother ) and lacking ( as no one informed me even when my XXXX was approved )!!!

Consumer complaint: XX/XX/XXXX, Home Depot gave us an estimate to have our kitchen cabinets refaced with a guarantee that they would match any lower price. In our research we found that XXXX could give us a brand new kitchen for XXXX less. When we asked Home Depot to price match they refused. I therefore cancelled the contract for the cabinet refacing and supposedly Home Depot removed from my account the {$15000.00} charge from my Home Depot credit card. XX/XX/XXXX, I was notified that I still owed interest on the {$15000.00}. I have made several attempted to get Home Depot Credit Services to remove the {$3800.00} in interest charges from my account, but they keep telling me that will only do that if I pay {$4800.00}. This does not make any sense to me as a consumer. No work was done by Home Depot at my except for the measuring of my existing cabinets for the task that was never completed. For two years my statements from Home Depot never showed a balance over {$8000.00}. Then all of a sudden a balance that was at {$5000.00} jumped to {$8800.00} without any explanation. Home Depot Credit Services and Home Depot have refused to answer questions from my legal assistance lawyers or respond back to me in writing as to how they came up with the {$3800.00} in interest charges on {$15000.00} charge that was removed from my account.

Consumer complaint: I started receiving collection notices from a collection agency that were connected to an apartment building that I had never heard of prior. I contacted them and they asked about my relationship to some person I had never heard of. They asked for the last XXXX digits of my social security number and then told me that the numbers did not match what they had on file. I explained that we owned our home and that we had never rented from this agency and I asked them to stop contacting me. I checked my credit report and found that they had reported the bad debt to the credit bureau so I then filed a report with the credit bureau stating that I was being targeted for a debt that was not mine. The credit bureau investigated the claim and reported back to me that they found my complaint to be valid and they removed the debt from my credit report. When my husband and I started the process of obtaining a mortgage loan to purchase another property, I found out that the collection agency was still reporting the debt to XXXX other credit bureaus. I then contacted them again, stating that we had already cleared this up once but they refused to remove it without " the proper paperwork '' which they promised to mail to me, again, stating that the information they had on file did not match my information. The paperwork they mailed to me was a form to report identity theft, which had not occurred. Nothing on the form was relevant and the only people identifying me as the debtor was this agency. I then contacted the XXXX additional credit reporting agencies and had them investigate the report. Both of them responded the same as the first. They told me that it would be removed from my credit report. 
That was 6 months ago. I thought that the problem was resolved but today I received another letter stating they are still attempting to collect this debt. I have checked my credit report and find no reports of collections from this company but I feel it is only a matter of time before they report it again.

Consumer complaint: I just received a new loan through LoanDepot. I 'm having trouble setting up an online account, as I want to pay beyond my minimum but i want to make sure I can set it up as additional principle. 

The web site wo n't let me register for an online account, and there is no phone number to talk to anyone directly. I emailed, and I got a response they needed more information - I do n't feel very comfortable sending my loan # and last XXXX of a social over email, but they wo n't communicate with me unless I do so. I 'm told 24 hour turn around. 

1 week later, I get an apology email for +24 hours to communicate, and then a " You can talk to us better if you click on email account rep in your loan account. '' But I ca n't get online. How do I communicate with a bank that communicates only online if I can not get online? 

I 'd love for mortgages to be like ANY other industry, where I can take my business elsewhere, if they 'll have me. I have perfect credit, I pay on time, and now I 'm stuck with this loan company? I do n't even know how to move forward with them. I obviously paid my first month through checking, but I like being sure my payments were received well before my payment date.

Consumer complaint: BSI Financial Services purchased our loan from XXXX XXXX XXXX. We were and are in an active Bankruptcy. For over a year, BSI Financial did not apply payments made to the loan, they put them in the escrow account. Since they did not apply payment correctly, they are charging interest and penalties on the loan that was paid. For 6 months we have been trying to work with the bank to get an accurate balance. We have had a lender that was willing to pay off the loan but BSI has been unable to get the payoff amount or balance due in 6 months. They are also continually reporting the loan incorrectly to the credit bureaus since they have not applied payments correctly. we have had a few discussions with our representatives and they always say they are working on it. Recently we have had update calls scheduled but they do not call. The person at BSI who says he is going to resolve the issues is XXXX XXXX. I believe the loan is now paid off, but they have fraudulently added more than is owed to the loan and are fraudulently collecting on a mortgage debt we no longer owe.

Consumer complaint: I signed up for Experian for a one time credit report. I purposely reviewed the terms to ensure I do not get residual billing. I was satisfied and bought my credit report. Now, since XXXX XXXX, I have been charged for credit monitoring service I never used ( no logins, views ) nor purchased. 

I spoke with Experian on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX at XXXX PT. XXXX answered the phone and he refused to refund my residual billing. I talked to a supervisor, XXXX, and she refused to reverse my resodual billing. I asked XXXX if there is another escalation I could proceed with, she said 'no '. 

The website is grossly deceptive. I previously heard about possible residual billing without permission and I still was charged. 

Please help me get my charges reversed and send corrective action to Experian. They are deceptive.

Consumer complaint: I deposited a check for XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, the check was returned XXXX/XXXX/XXXX therefore the XXXX was debited from my account. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX XXXX was debited from my account again, stating the check deposited on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX was fraud. Hence, my account has been debited a total of XXXX. I immediately called to file a dispute and was told I needed to go to the branch. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I went to the branch and was advised I need to file a claim over the phone. I then filed a claim and was told to wait 7-10 days.. I waited. I called back and was told that claim was closed and another one was opened XXXX I was told to wait 2 weeks.. I waited. Today XXXX/XXXX/XXXX over a month later I called to check the claim and was advised by the claims department that because they only debited the account once and refunded the money to the person that wrote the check, if I wanted my XXXX back that was debited on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I had to contact the branch because there was nothing they could do. I then called the XXXX Fl office where I have my account, I spoke with a XXXX who advised me I needed to come to the branch. I advised XXXX I have since moved to XXXX Oh and there are no branches here. I explained to her what I have been going through, she advised me she would forward to an escalations team to " look at it ''. By simply looking at my account it is plain to see Wells Fargo owes me XXXX. I have been charged a total of XXXX plus fees for a single check that was returned. WF got their money out of my account 4 days after the check was deposited, there was no reason to debit my account the second time.

Consumer complaint: Wells Fargo removed {$3000.00} from my XXXX XXXX account on XXXX/XXXX/2016, unauthorized. I had a payment set up for this amount, but called them on XXXX/XXXX/2016 to change the payment to the amount of {$490.00}. When I called them and told them I had cancelled the payment of {$3000.00} and needed the funds back, they acknowledged it was their mistake and that they payment should have been cancelled, they did n't know what had gone wrong. The next morning, XXXX/XXXX/2016, I had a conference call with Wells Fargo and XXXX XXXX to see if the charges ( there were multiple ) would clear or be returned. Upon figuring out which ones would clear and which would be returned, Wells Fargo said they would refund me $ XXXX which is the amount that cleared my account and covered the XXXX overdraft charges I incurred because of the overdraft of my checking account. Wells Fargo said they would credit the {$870.00} back to my checking account. As of today, XXXX/XXXX/2016, my account is still negative {$770.00}. When I called this morning, the woman I 've been talking to informed me that the funds would be back in today. When I told her this entire process was absolutely unacceptable, seeing as I have been unable to use my checking account for six days, i.e. purchase groceries for six days, she told me that she was sorry, but they were doing me a favor because their usual process of returning funds is via paper check that can take up to 21 days. I do not understand how it is legal for them to remove funds from my account that I did not authorize, acknowledge their mistake, and then have it take this long for them to return the funds without offering me any kind of compensation. I attended the University of XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, MN.

Consumer complaint: On XXXX XXXX, 2015, my coworkers and I were rear ended by another party. I immediately saw a chiropractor XXXX XXXX in XXXX. XXXX XXXX was aware this was an accident and other insurance company was paying for my injuries. During the negotiations, his office was trying to refer to me to an attorney they knew, I declined. XXXX XXXX never told me he was going to send me to collection. The other insurance company paid XXXX XXXX directly. I have had to send his collection company a XXXX paid invoice because XXXX XXXX office would not communicate with them. Now, I get a call from his collection company and spoke with XXXX XXXX there that I owe interest and they would remove the collection from my credit. How can this be if I got a XXXX paid invoice??
