Consumer complaint: XX/XX/XXXX. This loan modification process has been going on since XXXX I have paid my trial payments in full, on time and have continued to pay. At least {$20000.00} in fees remain indecipherable. Both you, CFPB, and Bank of America ( BOA ) claim to have resolved or solved this mystery of these indecipherable, erroneous fees. You have not cleared the way for any professional to understand BOA 's documentation of monies. This may be BOA 's SOP, but again, unreasonable, indiscernible, and cryptic. Fair resolution : remove these thousands of dollars of fees and let us press on to modification in full.

Consumer complaint: Tried to get free credit report, was unknowingly signed up for their monthly service ; was charged {$1.00}, which they claim they can not refund in spite of the fact that I called them immediately ( no more than 5 mins ) after I created an account on their site. The charge is only {$1.00}, which is small enough that most people will ignore. However, thousands of people do this and thus the credit company makes a lot of money by cheating you out of a buck. They also offer no way to delete an account, I was told I can only " deactivate '' an account and they would not absolutely confirm that my account and associated information ( including credit card info ) would be deleted.

Consumer complaint: Experian, XXXX and XXXX will post a a collection Agency 's 'collection ' on a consumers credit report without validating whether or not the Debt is valid. an assumption is made the Consumer is guilty and getting invalid debt collections off a report takes repeated efforts. Also, All XXXX credit reporting agencies, will allow a collection record that has been sold to another debt collection company to remain on the record even after dispute they generally will not remove the old record so the report contains XXXX records of the same debt allowing the scoring to be even more impacted. Our legal system maintains innocence until proven guilty given the priority given to credit scores and reports the above need to be fixed. Collection agencies have their place, however due diligence should be completed prior to any account showing up on a credit report. XXXX items just showed up on my credit report From XXXX XXXX and associates with XXXX different amounts that do not even look familiar to me. 
Legislation should be changed to give the presumed debtor the 30 day window to either validate or pay the debt prior to it hitting someones report. Assumptions are being made that the consumer was given that opportunity to question the debt and in many cases this is not correct. XXXX XXXX is notorious for placing things into collections 10 days after the XXXX was due and the entry is immediately placed on the the report has been hit and and mail arrives from the collection agency after the bill was paid.

The line was closed and the the amount of the money borrowed from the line was created into a new loan when the house the line was associated with was sold. I have made the agreed upon monthly payments since the terms of the new loan was established. This loan is reflected as being " charged off '' and " delinquent '' on my credit report.

Consumer complaint: We purchased a home with high interest rate due to that I had a id theft in the past and it hindered my rates etc. We got the home in 2007 and we wanted a fixed rate, but rather gave us a var. rate loan. The whole time they never had our balance correct and the monthly fees were different each time. We could not set our budget due to the performance and actions of the lender. They kept telling us oh if we send this much then the amount would go down. Well there were times we sent XXXX or XXXX or less etc. and they never did what they said. They traded our loan from one company to XXXX whom did the same thing, they cheated us and then went to XXXX XXXX XXXX they pulled the same stunt. Now we are with SPS and they have only applied our money toward interest and no principal so therefore our balance has been the same since then. This is cheated us of hard money. Now this company has had a lawyer threat to forclose and added XXXX to it etc. We should no loose our home due to dishonest and fraud companies. I want help for use, I have dealt with stress related issues and vomiting due to this. I am tired of us being taking advantage of us.

Consumer complaint: A few years ago I filed a complaint with FCC and fraudulent billing from XXXX XXXX. They were caught XXXX billing my account more then XXXX times. XXXX XXXX closed my account and issued me a refund and refunded all deposits. A XXXX later I started to receive bills from other companies over a {$99.00} charge. This charge was not accurate. I should never have been charged additional months when the account was closed and I was with another company. In addition, if I owned them money, why would n't they deduct the charges from the XXXX dollars that they over billed for. 

I filed complaints and I thought the issue was resolved, until 3 weeks ago. I found the " charge-off '' from XXXX XXXX on my credit report. Today, I was surprised by a letter from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC stating they are taking over my XXXX XXXX account. There is XXXX reference to the amount on the account numbered : XXXX. 

1. I do not owe XXXX XXXX any money because my account was settled in full and I was issued a reimbursement for their XXXX billing. 
2. If this bill has already been listed as a " charge-off '' how can another company take ownership over the account? 
3. I have already had my credit destroyed because I had the mistake of working with XXXX XXXX. They retaliated against me because I filed several complaints. 

XXXX XXXX has violeted my Fair Credit Report Act protection.

Consumer complaint: I was charged an overdraft fee of {$35.00} on XX/XX/2015. The payment that caused my account to be " overdrawn '' did not post to my account on XXXX/XXXX/2015, after a cash deposit cleared the account. My account never had a negative balance. When I called the bank, they refused to credit me the NSF fee stating that the payment was processing. I was only able to speak with the bank via chat session. I have a copy of the transcript of the chat session.

Consumer complaint: I received notice of a hearing from the attorney for a motion to renew judgment on a very old debt. 

The attorney is : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MI XXXX Phone XXXX Fax XXXX. 

I ca n't recall why this amount was owed, etc. and it was never explained to me. I knew from ten years ago that a judgment was made and unfortunately I was unable to attend the hearing because I was moving from my original address in XXXX, MI at the time. I am now living in XXXX County and the hearing is in XXXX County. I received notice from the State of Michigan that she seized my Michigan State tax return in XXXX. 

The upcoming hearing is XXXX miles away from my home residence, of which Mary Jane Elliot et. al is well aware. The notice is dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX and I did n't receive it until XXXX XXXX, XXXX, so I have n't been given adequate time to prepare a legal defense. 

They are also charging me {$960.00} in interest on a {$690.00} balance for a total of {$1600.00}. I feel this amount is ridiculous, especially since I never acknowledged this debt and the statute of limitations has run out long ago. 

I feel that ten years of having my credit report ruined and fear of the unjust actions of this firm for a false debt is more than adequate a price to pay. They have done nothing to provide proof of the debt or get my voluntary acceptance of it. This is the first I have heard from them in years. The original judgment was in XXXX. 

As Mary Jane Elliot et. al must be aware, I have limited resources to respond to her lawsuit. At the very least she should be suing me in a court near my residence not somewhere I have n't lived in a decade. 

The case number is XXXX in the XXXX District Court before the Honorable XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. 

In closing, I would like to comment about the importance of protections to safeguard the rights of consumers from the unethical actions of creditors such as Mary Jane Elliot et. al. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Consumer complaint: I am a XXXX required to use my Government XXXX Card for travel. I was erroneously charged {$130.00} on XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX XXXX XXXX which provides hotel services on XXXX XXXX. I have stayed at their facility in the past, but I was in XXXX on orders on XX/XX/XXXX and had no plans or travel to XXXX XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, I went on official travel and paid my bill including the erroneous {$130.00}. When I noticed the erroneous charge I called Citibank to have it reversed. I saw a credit on bill and waited for a check. When I followed up I was told that my credit was reversed because I did not submit a form. They said they sent me a letter telling me about the form. I never received the letter. While I was on the phone they said they would email me the form, the form never arrived. Then the representative directed me to a website where I was able to download the form. I submitted it and my claim was denied because too much time had passed. I called customer service who referred me to the appeals department where I explained that my claim had been opened for months. Eventually she credited me the {$130.00} and that money was direct deposited to my bank. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a bill from Citibank saying I now owed them {$130.00}!!! They said they reversed my credit because they have been able to get a hold of XXXX XXXX XXXX. They said it was my responsibility to get the erroneous charge reversed! I did not make the charge. I am being scammed.

Consumer complaint: Approximately two years ago I opened up a secure credit card with Wells Fargo Bank for {$1000.00}. Over the course of this last year in 2014 I have experienced some financial hardships. However, at this time I am trying to repair my credit ; the XXXX step was to deposit into the holders of my credit cards. I have XXXX with XXXX XXXX and a secured card with Wells Fargo. The account with Wells Fargo is a secured XXXX credit card ; I made a {$1000.00} deposit 2 years ago. I was over the credit limit allowed for several months. On XXXX XXXX I made a payment into the Wells Fargo secured card for {$1100.00} to date the money has not yet been available to me. I have made several phone calls over the last 7 days and I was informed that there was a hold placed on the deposit to ensure it was clear from my bank. I informed them the money had posted to my XXXX XXXX XXXX account and was no longer available to me and that it should have been credited to the Wells Fargo account. Finally after one week of a waiting for these funds to be available I have been informed today that the account was closed on XXXX XXXX. After the card underwriter in the credit services department at Wells Fargo reviewed my credit history she informed me that they would not be able to reopen my Wells Fargo secured card a nd then I was tranferred back to the customer services dept of the credit services department I was told I would not be receiving my refund of the {$1000.00} dollars collateral for at least 45 to 60 days. I expressed my profound disappointment and anger as I need these funds for my day to day living. I have bills that desperately need to be paid and my intent was to pay them from the funds deposited to that card. When I asked for a supervisor I was disconnected. When I called back to speak with a supervisor I was told that I did not meet the criteria for a rush of my {$1000.00} back to me. I am a relatively new XXXX and I an a single parent with children in XXXX. I can not afford to have {$1000.00} just sitting somewhere.

I called Genesis on XXXX/XXXX/XX/XX/XXXX after not hearing from them and I was informed that my loan did not qualify for a reduction/foregiveness as it was sold to XXXX at some point. They could not tell me who XXXX was or when my loan was sold. I have XXXX loans with Genesis Lending. The account numbers are # XXXX and # XXXX.

Consumer complaint: Pollack & Rosen began calling me indicating that they were representing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in reference to a debt that I have with Portfolio Recovery. They began calling on XXXX XXXX, 2015, in which they called 4 times in that XXXX day, but they did not leave a message. The debt is for a XXXX XXXX XXXX account with XXXX. I informed the representative from Pollack & Rosen that I had made payment arrangements XXXX XXXX and that I have the paperwork that outlines the payment arrangement. The Representative, XXXX, stated that they did not have any record of this payment arrangement. He implied that he did not believewhat I said. I told XXXX that I would contact XXXX to make sure the arrangements were still in place. He began stating that they would file the necessary paperwork to file a lawsuit in my county if I did not make payment arrangements with them. XXXX made a veiled threat that if I wanted to make this " go away '' I would need to take care of this with their firm immediately. I again stated to him that I had made payment arrangements with Portfolio Recovery, their client, and that XXXX was satisfied with the payment arrangement and that I also have the paperwork detailing the payment arrangement. XXXX then put me on hold and came back to the phone stating that he had spoke with their " Lead Counsel '' and that Lead Counsel said that XXXX had retained them as their attorneys and they are going to proceed with filing a lawsuit. I donot understand how a law firm can go ahead and sue you when their client has already made payment arrangements with me. I have spoken several times with XXXX XXXX XXXX about this situation and they reassured me that they are satisfied with the payment arrangements that they had made with me. Also the representative informed me that XXXX XXXX XXXX had made a mistake in sending my file to this debt collection attorney. I have the paperwork from XXXX that states that they would not send my account to a debt collection attorney until after XXXX XXXX but they sent it on XXXX XXXX. I made payment arrangements with XXXX on XXXX XXXX, 2015. XXXX XXXX admitted their mistake, but this debt collection firm was extremely rude and threatening. XXXX, the representative from Pollack and Rosen also made the statement to me that " I seem to be an Intelligent person '', which I found to be extremely condescending. I feel that I should not be harassed for the mistake that XXXX XXXX XXXX made, and to which they admitted to, by this debt collection firm of Pollack and Rosen.

Consumer complaint: I signed up for the US Bank XXXX XXXX visa credit card, with a key benefit being the inclusion of a free night on award stays : " a bonus award night every time you redeem for XXXX award nights or more, the last night is complimentary ''. This was a key benefit for the card ( which carries an annual fee of {$75.00} ). I signed up for this card due to its benefits, which were clearly stated on the website when I applied and was accepted for the card. A week after receiving my welcome material, it was announced that this benefit would be removed beginning XXXX XXXX, 2015. I called US Bank to request that this benefit continue for my card, as I had applied specifically for this product benefit, but they told me the benefit would be going away for all cardholders. I find it incredibly deceptive to offer a card with certain benefits and then once I have the card and have paid the annual fee, the most valuable benefit then gets removed with no compensation for this loss.
