Consumer complaint: On XX/XX/2015 my son XXXX received a check from Social Security for a settlement on his XXXX claim, since he has no income he does not have a checking account.The plan was to deposit his check in my account and start a new account at another bank. He endorsed the check and i did too, i then deposited the check in the atm at the bank. This procedure take until the next day for the check to clear.I was aware of this and when i looked at my account on XX/XX/2015 there was no deposit and a note was attached to the deposit.I then called the banks help line, where i was given XXXX different excuses why they did n't deposit the check. the first excuse was that my son was not on my account, the second was a teller did not witness him signing the check! This flies in the face of the banks trying the customer to use as many electronic devices as possible. I 'm XXXX years old as of today a veteran who served his country and that was how i was taught how you deal with checks that was before the internet and to big to fail! the lack of this money has caused severe hardship on my family, we are out of food and need to pay our bills! It is my contention that wells fargo acted in bad faith and should be justly punished!

Consumer complaint: XXXX. XXXX XXXX number : XXXXXXXXAs I was checking on my case Wells Fargo 's Response says : We have established contact with XXXX. XXXX XXXX legal representation XXXX XXXX to discuss this correspondence. We require additional time to complete our research regarding XXXX. XXXX XXXX loan concerning payment assistance. 
However, I called my attorney and he said they have never contacted him. 
So as usual they are n't doing anything. I got a letter from the VP of Wells Fargo saying they are checking in to it, but so far nothing is going on. 
Again, I had to file a new modification this month and the appraisals are going up and now they will be upping the value of my home. This is not fair and it is nothing but a run-around for homeowners who are trying to get things straight. 
They also keep sending me statements that I owe back interest of XXXX and I am in Bankruptcy court. How is that legal? Thank you for looking into this.

Consumer complaint: I was cheated by BB & T and the BBB could not handle the case and I am asking your help. 
My XXXX savings account was from XXXX opened in 1996. The bank was taken over by BB & T. I decided to let go of my high pay job and went to School. I wanted to close my savings account and I had plenty of Money in the checking account. The teller told me not to close it because if I had sufficient fund in the checking account there will not be any fees. I did not have that in writing, because I was banking with BB & T for many years. After XXXX months I found out that there is a monthly service charge of {$7.00} on a dormant account. I questioned the charges and they refuse to refund the money. When I went to close the account, they asked me to bring lots of ID to reactivate the account in person. Later I got a mail notice saying my account is active and please call to deactivate the account. I asked the manager saying if I was dead, would the money be depleted through service charges without letting my relatives know about the account and she said yes. She could not find any means to refund the money. I contacted XXXX, and their complain office for BB & T is in North Carolina, the same office of the BB & T head quarters. They did not intervene on my case, but acted as a medium for communication. When I tried to contact XXXX by writing I did not get any response. So please help. I have all documents and proofs. BB & T only refunded XXXX of the service charges and refused to refund the other half. 
Few things : If a customer dies, there is no written notice to the client or relatives regarding the balance in the bank. 
Second, The meaning of " BANK '' for savings is no longer applicable in BB & T because their business practices does not allow written notification regarding dormant accounts. 
Third the term " dormant '' is unfairly XXXX way. I can not as an account holder withdraw the money without ID, but the bank can enjoy deducting money till it is empty. When I went to activate it. they need all the ID and they wanted me in person. 
Please help.

Consumer complaint: I originally disputed with Experian on XXXX/XXXX/15, I received a response dated XXXX/XXXX/15 stating that my dispute was " suspicious '' and was not sent by me. I 'm not sure how they verified this information when I even included my drive'r 's license, a current utility bill, my signature, social security number on the letter. What more do they need from me? You will see all of this in the documents that I am attaching with my complaint.

Consumer complaint: The new servicing company did not send out their notice no less than 15 days PRIOR to them receiving the transfer. They are now telling me the Federal law states they have up to 60days AFTER transfer to send me a letter. They are refusing to take my payment ( s ), give me date when they will start accepting my payment ( s ). They said I would just have to wait till they sent me a letter and called with the info, but would take aporx 60 days! I should just " hold on '' to my payment till then ... There is something fishy about them, it 's like they are wanting you to get behind or something. 60 days would cause it to show late on my credit report and I 've NEVER been late with my mortgage before and do n't plan on it either!!!

Consumer complaint: I have been receiving relentless phone calls from Credit Corp Solutions ( XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX, ( XXXX ) XXXX ) over a XXXX XXXX balance of approximately XXXX. Today they called my ex-husband trying to get information from him about me. we have been divorced since 2002! After I accumulated this debt, I was laid off from my job and took a loss of XXXX per year which significantly lowered my ability to pay as much on my bill as before. I continued to pay XXXX per month ( which is what I could afford at the time ) after my lay off and decrease in income. They started to continuously call me, up to 5 times per day, and tell me to pay more. I responded to their phone calls and told them that the most I could afford to pay on this bill was XXXX per month. They rejected this proposal and refused to negotiate. I then told them that I could not agree to pay more. I did research this type of situation and it is more harmful for me to make small payments without an agreement as it still was been reported to the credit bureaus even with the small payments I had been making all along. I do not want them to call me, my ex-husband or any of my family over this. I would still agree to the XXXX if they would agree to stop making reports to the credit bureaus but they refused to agree to what I could afford to pay.

Consumer complaint: At the beginning of XXXX 2015 I applied to Navy Federal Credit Union for a used auto loan and was approved. I had the vehicle info, the dealership info and all other information that was needed to purchase the vehicle. Before everything was finalized, the vehicle was sold. I cancelled that loan with no problems. Around XX/XX/XXXX I found another vehicle and had all the required info in hand I applied and was approved. That vehicle was also sold before everything was finalized. I called Navy Federal to cancel this loan and spoke to a member service rep and he told me he cancelled the loan and everything was good to go. A couple of days later I am checking my accounts and this loan is now showing up as XXXX of my accounts. I called Navy Federal again and was told the loan was never cancelled by the other member service rep. This rep said they would take care of it. It did n't happen the second time either. The XXXX time I called, emailed through their website and complained on their XXXX page and finally the loan was cancelled but the damage was done. Navy Federal reported this loan to the credit bureaus as if I had received it and given it to the dealership to purchase the car. I called XXXX times to cancel this loan, never went into the bank to pick it up and never purchased a car but this loan is now on my credit report as an open account for {$46.00}, XXXX. I asked Navy Federal to submit something to the credit agencies XX/XX/XXXX and they told me it was not their job to submit anything and pretty much it was all on me dispute it. Even though it was their fault they submitted this fraudulently, it was my job to fix it. I have tried going through dealerships since then to receive financing but no one will give me financing because my credit report is already showing I have this loan for over XXXX already open and it 's making it seem as if I have almost XXXX in debt right now. I do n't, I am only {$22.00}, XXXX. I explained to them what happened and still no luck on getting financing. I still do n't have a car either. I applied again to Navy Federal on XXXX XXXX 2015 and now they are denying me credit. Even though they approved me for a used auto loan all the previous times I applied and XXXX credit cards. I 'm sure they are denying me credit for the same reason everyone else, this open {$46000.00} used auto loan that they submitted to the credit reporting agencies and that 's still showing up on my credit report as open. Now my credit score has dropped a lot because of this and because of all the inquiries by the dealerships trying to get me financing. After all of this, I still have no car, have to rent vehicles or borrow a friend 's car for anything I want to do now. They still have not accepted fault in this and in my honest opinion are not seeing how frustrating and aggravating this is. I am now seeking legal advice and legal action because I need a car and Navy Federal has really left me with no other options.

Consumer complaint: I was alerted by my credit monitoring that a collection account was placed on my XXXX XXXX credit report indicating I owed XXXX XXXX XXXX for XXXX. I have never had any type of service with XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I contacted the collection company, Enhanced Recovery Company ( ERC ), I was told that the address on the account was XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have never lived at that address. ERC never attempted to contact me in order to resolve this situation before it was unlawfully placed on my credit report. My address is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Ga, XXXX. This has been my address since 2003. I attempted to explain this to ERC and the representative was rude and could not provide me any documentation to support their claim. I then contacted XXXX and they stated they had nothing on file with my social security number, and I did not owe them. I again contacted ERC to explain what XXXX XXXX XXXX told me, however once again they did not provide me any documentation to their claim. I asked to speak to ERC 's research department and they stated they would not contact me.This has come at a time when I am in the process of Refinancing my mortgage. ERC has violated my rights and will cost me financially by illegally reporting a collection account which they have fradulently reported to the credit company.

Consumer complaint: I get a Robo call from XXXX at least XXXX times every day for the past month. It concerns a supposedly debt with XXXX, but I called XXXX and that debt does not exist. If I return the call, I 'm just presented with an automatic message about where to send payment and no human ever answers. This harassment has been going on for months.

Consumer complaint: In XX/XX/XXXX our second mortgage line of credit from XXXX Bank was cut off due to none payment of a credit card bill to Bank of America. I had no charges, statements, or activity on that account that I was aware of. I have always had an excellent credit score and I did not realize this thing would be with me for seven years, so I just simply paid it without a dispute. I now know, dispute these things! I contacted Bank of America regarding the {$63.00} they said I owed them. I told them that I had no bank statement saying that I owed them, they had not called me on this matter, ever. In response to this, they told me I went paperless in XX/XX/XXXX. This is not true, I have paper statements dated after XX/XX/XXXX from them. Also, they have no email address from me, how can one go paperless without my email address? They actually tried to trick me into giving it to them, not once, but twice. They said the only way to clear this, was to pay it, so I did. I now know that I could have disputed the charge and it would not have effected my credit rating. First I was never given a bill, then I was lied too, and worse of all my credit rating was effected.

Consumer complaint: I was advised by the Internal Revenue Service that my social security number and other confidential information were compromised. Sometime in XXXX to XXXX my personal details were stolen and have been used up to XXXX XXXX when a security alert had been placed on my credit files. These fraudulent accounts range from medical ; utility accounts and credit card accounts and must be deleted from my history. I forward the details of these accounts in question and a copy of the Identity Theft Affidavit and I have had no response from both the credit bureaus and the creditor/collections agent.

Consumer complaint: Bank of America bought our mortgage many years ago from XXXX. We tried to do a mod. in XXXX and were denied. At a later date we tried to do a Mod. with the Presidents home affordable program. After almost a year of more documents needed, loan rep on vacation, wrong documents, anything to string us along they said the only program we qualified for would save us about {$60.00} a month. In the past year of 2014 we were told we missed a payment. We did a trial mod. and still they are saying we are missing a payment. I can never get the same person to talk to. My account manager is also a C S R. I checked my bank records and all payments were made on time, every month! They charge us {$15.00} for a phone payment, {$15.00} for property inspection, Hazard insurance. Mislead, misinform, drag out every attempt to resolve any issue, and make it almost impossible to refinance anywhere else. I WANT OUT OF THIS COMPANY!!!! I filed a letter of dispute with B O A dispute department and asked to check my payment history and either send me a fax detailing the exact payment we missed or send me a clean record and a letter stating such and to no surprise never received a response from them. I spoke to a C S R who said my dispute was denied and I asked her to fax me the denial. Her response was she was not allowed to. I ca n't get anywhere with the lousy company! This is nothing more than hanging a carrot in front of a horse. Very deceptive and questionable business practices. I would advise anyone potentially doing any business with B O A. DO N'T!!!!

Consumer complaint: I have been receiving letters and calls from XXXX funding about a debt they claimed I owed. A few years ago, I asked them to provide proper validation that it was mine ( a statement from the original creditor or even the signed agreement that I signed up or agreed to the credit ) but they could not do so, so I requested they remove the collection from my credit report and they did. 

Then it looks like they sold that debt to Capital Management Services , LP and they are now claiming I need to pay THEM. When does this end? The alleged debt from what XXXX told me, was from YEARS ago supposedly ... is n't there a Statue of Limitations on how long they can keep contacting me and threatening me to pay them this debt? Please help ... this is not mine to owe.

Consumer complaint: I have a SEARS credit card account with just the SEARS credit card. I keep receiving letters forcing me to call and state i do not want my sears cards automatically updated to a XXXX. 
Twice now I have made this contact and still are receiving the letters. I just received the XXXX XXXX and called again. 
This letter starts out with ( We will be sending you ) there is n't any choice if I do n't call them and they are going to change my credit card because if I do not call that is a confirmation that I want it?????? This is a breach on contract because they are trying to change the terms of my account without approval almost to the point of extortion, because if I do n't react they are forcefully change my card to a XXXX resulting in financial gains to their corporation.

Consumer complaint: My newly re-financed loan was bought and is now handled by Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing. I received a monthly statement that included nearly XXXX the regular amount charged for escrow. When I called to inquire, I was told that the escrow analysis did not exist yet and that the representative did not have information available to answer my questions. I was told that I would soon receive the escrow statement in the mail. This morning - more than a week after my XXXX call - I called again with the same inquiry. XXXX, I was told that the person I spoke with originally had NOT placed a request for an escrow analysis, but that the representative would initiate a request. When I told the representative that I needed information immediately as my payment was due, she told me she could not help. I asked to speak with a supervisor and my call was forwarded to someone 's voicemail. I called back, had a similar conversation with a different representative, and my call was forwarded to another voicemail. 

There has been no increase in my taxes or insurance. While I understand that escrow shortfalls do happen from time-to-time, I am unaware of any legitimate reason why there should be a shortfall that amounts to almost an extra months ' payment. 

I have now researched Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing and see that it is a regular practice of the company to seek additional funds PRIOR TO providing homeowners with information as to why the increase is legal and warranted.

Consumer complaint: I recently opened a bank account at Regions Bank in XXXX Georgia. My initial deposit was a cashier 's check from XXXX XXXX.

No date was given when funds would be available. The manager told me that the fraud monitoring dept. placed the hold and being Saturday nothing could be done.

My card was also cancelled because I have not used it yet and my pin number was changed without my knowledge.
