Consumer complaint: The following is related to U.S. Bank. On XXXX/XXXX/2015 I used my checking account-linked debit card to make several purchases. I made these purchases knowing that my checking account was low on funds. I monitored my account throughout the day, frequently checking the balance. I was diligent about not overdrawing the account. At the end of the day, a {$25.00} automatic monthly transfer was made to my savings account even though these funds did not exist. US Bank manipulated the payment processing order so that the {$25.00} automatic transfer was the FIRST payment processed on XXXX, thus a guaranteed overdraft charge. Several days later I was notified of a {$36.00} overdraft fee via mail. Additionally, I was charged a {$25.00} extended overdraft fee, meaning the account was overdrawn for a five day period. I contacted my home branch to explain why the charges were unfair and the branch manager said she could only remove the {$25.00} extended fee. I told her that I would be banking with a different institution so she changed her mind and said she would remove the original {$36.00} fee in an effort to " help me out '' but not the {$25.00} extended fee that was a result of the original fee. 
All of these events occurred despite the fact that I am " opted out '' of overdrafts. This option, however, does n't apply if the charge is a recurring monthly charge for gym memberships, XXXX, etc. The charge that put me into overdraft was conveniently my $ 8 monthly XXXX subscription that went through on the same day. I called XXXX to see what time the charge went through on XXXX. It went through at XXXX XXXX. US Bank manipulated the payment processing order so that the automatic recurring XXXX payment was the payment that went through when there were not enough funds to cover it. 
U.S. Bank 's manipulative payment processing resulted in my account being overdrawn by around {$4.00}, leading to {$61.00} in fees.

Consumer complaint: I am including documents showing my current credit scores, according to XXXX XXXX credit bureaus credit reports and scores, this is simply unfair, that XXXX XXXX still reports my Gold Card I still have with them as a negative account, and there is also another problem at my job they simply do n't care, and having all the evidence showing this is unfair, as the complaint number shown above here at C.F.P.B. shows, there is no need to write a lot here, just to show how this looks at the credit bureaus today, Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX Complaint submitted at Trans Union today, evidence included here. No matter it appears written that consumer disputes the account, that does not change the fact, the credit reports are not showing any evidence about why the dispute still exists, and the negative account is just as negative, and unfair in this case, that the credit report still appears affected, and, I am not able to pay now for the F.I.C.O version of Trans Union, the one used by banks most of the time, next XXXX XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, the investigator at the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission said they should receive the first response from the local Department of Education, where I am suppose to be working and I am not, complaint at the E.E.O.C. is number XXXX, and there was no response from the local Dept. of Education since last XX/XX/XXXX, when this complaint at the E.E.O.C. was submitted, so is not only XXXX XXXX the problem. Trans Union complaint evidence, added in order to show this is reported at all XXXX main credit bureaus, including Experian also. XXXX XXXX canceled the pay over time, also called extended payment option the account, because of a negative report shown at XXXX according to their representatives over the phone, but the error only appears at the F.I.C.O. version of Trans Union as I detected and it is shown here. But no matter all the evidence included here, showing that XXXX recognized the error in writing, as the included e-mail clearly shows, and it is dated XX/XX/XXXX, and the dates shown at F.I.C.O. Trans Union match with this date, but someone has to take the time to verify all this, this ca n't be done automatically, because of this error, XXXX XXXX suspended the extended option called also pay over time feature of this gold card, no matter it is needed by so many of us as clients and they know it, they have experience with me of more than 24 years already. The student loan in question, that is the center of this error, was transferred to the US Dept. of Education, and it was reported as delinquent by mistake during this process according to XXXX, why this is not recognized, as it clearly shown by XXXX?

Consumer complaint: I applied online for a Home Depot Home Improvement Project Loan in the amount of {$20000.00} on XX/XX/XXXX which was approved for {$10000.00}. At that time I accepted the loan and electronically acknowledged the loan approval and was provided a loan number with my loan approval amount. The system notification also stated that I could request an increase through the company 's XXXX number. On XX/XX/XXXX when I received my kitchen project final quote from Home Depot, I attempted to increase my loan to {$20000.00} but was told by the rep that an increase could not be approved but that the original approved amount of {$10000.00} would be available. On XX/XX/XXXX I presented the loan document and a cashier check for the project difference to the store and the loan was blocked. I spent over 90 minutes in the store at the register talking to the loan customer service department Account Supervisor who stated that the previously approved loan was loan was blocked for " income verification '' and that I would have to provide proof of income. The options offered were check stubs for the last thirty days and income statements. I am self employed and happened to have with me copies of XXXX checks paid to me by the consulting company that I work. I was told that those checks were unacceptable because they could not see any taxes being withheld from the payments, and that if I was self employed I would need to provide my XXXX or tax returns for XX/XX/XXXX. I asked the loan customer service rep repeatedly ( more than three times ) why I was approved for the loan but never informed that it was contingent upon " income verification '' until I came to the store to make a purchase, only to be denied credit at the time ( 5 days later ) of my purchase. I received no phone call, email or regular mail to notify me of this situation. Ironically, when I returned home from the store the home improvement project loan card had arrived via fedex to my home. The following day I had to provide copies of my tax returns to the loan customer service department, and only then was I granted access to the credit for which I was originally approved on XX/XX/XXXX. I still was not given a reason for the block on the original approval. I am deeply concern that there was no notification policy or real approval process for actually obtaining credit offered.

Consumer complaint: I have a home mortgage with Wells Fargo Home Mortgage ( I did not apply for a mortgage with Wells Fargo, they acquired it ). I am paying bi-weekly with additional principle added to each payment in an attempt to pay my mortgage down as much as possible before I retire in approximately 13 years. Recently ( last 6 months ) Wells Fargo has let this additional money accumulate in an " Unapplied Funds Balance '' and does not apply it to my loan balance. In XXXX I called and complained when the Unapplied Funds Balance had reached {$3500.00} ( enough for XXXX full payments ), and they finally applied the funds. Now on my XXXX statement the Unapplied Funds Balance has reached {$2600.00} ( XXXX payments ). I believe this additional money should be applied to my principle and is costing me interest charges. 

I also believe this action by Wells Fargo is intentional as a result of a previous home mortgage that they held ( acquired ) on a previous house of mine that resulted in foreclosure because we were {$80000.00} underwater on the house value after the 2008 crash and my wife 's XXXX diagnosis which resulted in her going on XXXX. We are currently in Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy as a result of this foreclosure.

Consumer complaint: My spouse and I, in conjunction with our legal representation, would like to pursue a Deed In Lieu of Foreclosure with our lender, Wells Fargo. We moved out of the property XX/XX/XXXX due to a change of employment. Since that time we have done our best to find buyers while continuing to pay the mortgage. Some of the ways we attempted to alleviate the financial strain of the mortgage was refinancing XX/XX/XXXX, renting out the property, and living with relatives. Unfortunately the cost of maintaining the property is too much, even with rental tenants. The home currently needs repairs and thus we are unable to find new tenants. When we looked at our finances we knew we would eventually run out of funds to maintain the cost of the mortgage and thus we sought help XX/XX/XXXX. 
We were informed that in order to be considered for a Deed In Lieu we would first have to go through the short sale process. Our initial request for the short sale program began back on XX/XX/XXXX. Wells Fargo confirmed the request on XX/XX/XXXX. After what seemed to be an eternity, Wells Fargo finally informed us that we had gotten approval to participate in the Short Sale Program on XX/XX/XXXX. There were no potential buyers during our entire time in the program, which expired on XX/XX/XXXX. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, I called Wells Fargo to inquire about the Deed In Lieu option, but they refused to speak to me regarding my account. On XX/XX/XXXX, we initiated legal representation as mentioned above. On XX/XX/XXXX, Wells Fargo calls me and I request that they contact my legal representation because I have hired them to assist me in pursuing a Deed In Lieu. A letter, dated XX/XX/XXXX, is sent to Wells Fargo requesting a Deed In Lieu. Wells Fargo acknowledges receipt of this letter on XX/XX/XXXX. This letter states that they will " provide [ us ] with the results on or before XX/XX/XXXX. '' It also states that " In the event additional time is needed [ they ] will contact [ us ]. We have received no such response and our legal representation has also received no such response. 
We recently, XX/XX/XXXX, received notice of a foreclosure date of XX/XX/XXXX. Our legal representation has called in attempt to find out what happened to our Deed In Lieu request, but Wells Fargo is not responding.

Consumer complaint: SLS Loan XXXX XXXX leinXXXX XXXX Loan XXXX XXXX leinXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXXWhile in escrow during an approved short sale we discovered issues with title which brought to light a XXXX. We immediately started negotiating with, all of this was being discussed with SLS, via phone calls and paperwork faxed! Out of the blue SLS decided to deny the short sale and foreclose my house while in escrow!!!!! I have a foreclosure set for tomorrow - my question here is how is that possible that a lender can deny a short sale while in escrow!! How can they do tat when they had approved the short sale while in communication with us - NEVER once mentioning that they would recinde their approval. When called they told us that they needed 37 days to review a new file and that now there is simply no time as they are too busy with other files - 37 days???? How can they review a file that has already been approved and all parties amounts are the same?? We have to live with a foreclosure on our back because SLS is too busy for us when we are trying to do the right thing???

Consumer complaint: I have been trying to have my home loan modified with help from XXXX. Each time they have called the bank to check on the modification they were advised that they did n't have authorization. I have given XXXX authorization which has been sent to the bank on multiple times. The bank advised they had received the authorization on XX/XX/XXXX and then on XX/XX/XXXX they said they did n't have. This has left me in a terrible hardship and I 'm may lose my home. I lost my wife on XX/XX/XXXX. She battled XXXX for five years. Not only have I had to endure watching my wife suffer and leave this world I may now have to leave our home that we shared together. My son and I live in the home and very much want to continue living here. The bank has advised that there is a sale date for my home on XX/XX/XXXX. My son and I have no where to go.

Consumer complaint: This complaint is about the fees my bank charged for a wire transfer, not the transfer itself. I did some business with a company XXXX and they pay through wire transfer. I had the money wired to my SunTrust account. The remitting bank XXXX provided a receipt showing that they remitted {$9100.00} XXXX to SunTrust. When I received the deposit, {$30.00} XXXX was missing, but then SunTrust charged me {$15.00} separately for a " domestic '' wire transfer. SunTrust publishes an incoming international wire transfer fee of {$30.00}. When I questioned the double charge XXXX {$30.00} off the top and {$15.00} extra ), SunTrust said they did not charge the {$30.00}. After several emails and phone calls, someone looked at the trail and determined that the incoming wire transfer came through XXXX bank and SunTrust received {$9100.00}. My guess is that SunTrust uses XXXX to process their international wire transfers since they are not an international bank. The Swift code for SunTrust was used but it obviously went through XXXX first, which shaved the published {$30.00} fee off the transaction. My main concern is that in the process of receiving my money, {$30.00} disappeared and I have no receipt or explanation for it. The fact that I was charged {$15.00} for a " domestic '' wire transfer between the bank SunTrust uses for international transfers and SunTrust itself is double-dipping and criminal. These transactions should be transparent and all fees should be disclosed up front. I would have been fine giving SunTrust the published {$30.00} for the international wire transfer, but the fact that another bank ( that I am not a customer of ) got that and then I was charged {$15.00} for a domestic transfer is the issue. It 's dishonest and needs to be stopped.

Consumer complaint: Hello I logged into my Home depot account which is administered by Citibank to check the status of my account. Imagine my surprise when I saw a due date of XX/XX/XXXX when I had just made a payment earlier this month for the original due date of the XXXX of the month. Had I not discovered this it would have sent the account into default and I would have lost the 0 % financing cost which is not due until XX/XX/XXXX for which I will have paid off before then. The only notice I received from Home depot was that the billing website had changed and no change in my due date had happened. I am afraid that many of their customers who are using this option may have their accounts go into default because of this underhanded tactic. Please investigate this issue and force Home depot aka citibank to make amends to any customers that may have been deceived by them.

Consumer complaint: We took out a second mortgage for XXXX for a 15 year loan in 2006 with XXXX XXXX XXXX who sold it to XXXX who sold it to Franklin Credit managment. The initial interest rate was 13.9 %. I made payments for 3 years the Principal stayed at XXXX. I had no contact from this company for 6 years. After 6 years they contacted me 6 months ago saying I had to pay XXXX in back payments or they would foreclose. They then hired The XXXX who put a Notice of Foreclosure on my house. This is a predatory loan. The loan amount never went down. The loan was for 15 years. We will pay them a total so far of the XXXX + the XXXX which will = XXXX.

Consumer complaint: To whom it may concern I just recently purchased a new house this XXXX 2015 and shortly after moving in we began receiving letters regarding a mortgage accelerator program. I called them and I decided that it made sense and paid upfront a sum of one mortgage payment which was XXXX. Now they are sending me emails indicating that they have been shut down. I am upset not to mention out a lot money. Do I have any legal recourse about getting money back thx XXXX 

Company response: Company believes complaint caused principally by actions of third party outside the control or direction of the company
Consumer complaint: I have been asking for several years for an explanation of how the balance of my loan is so high. Frankly, I have another loan I am paying on through XXXX and thought that that was the only loan. Then I got confused when a company called XXXX was asking for money. I do not remember having XXXX loans. The loan was for my daughter to go to what was originally XXXX XXXX XXXX, then it changed to XXXX University. This school is closed. I have never received a breakdown of the total costs. The XXXX loan was about $ XXXX and I have been making payments. The XXXX loan I am disputing as they are saying that the amount now due is over $ XXXX and I have been disputing this for a while now. I have sent letters and only received a note of the original amount which was $ XXXX. I have yet to see a detailed statement of how on earth it has doubled. This seems like loan sharking. And they are now contacting my workplace. If the note can be proven to be accurate, I will assume my debt and pay that balance off. But the fact that I can not even see what the loan was for originally PLUS how it has grown to this substantial and overwhelming balance is more than frustrating.

Consumer complaint: I never received my mortgage statement/bill for XXXX XXXX 2015 from Ditech financial as is required. I attempted to contact them by phone both to find out why I had n't received the statement and to arrange a payment so I would n't be late. After and endless time on hold waiting to speak to a rep I hung up and went on-line to make a payment, again so I would n't be " late ''. I made the e-payment, along with a {$12.00} fee, on XXXX XXXX. Received my statement/bill for XXXX XXXX and it showed I had n't made the XXXX XXXX payment and I now owed them a late fee. This time I was able to reach a rep by phone. She said that the payment I made on XXXX XXXX was slated for XXXX XXXX in their system. Claimed I had set it up that way so that I was in act late. I pointed out that I had n't gotten my statement as required by law, that I 'd used their system to make a payment on the due date, and I wanted the fee dropped and the record to show I 'd done what I was supposed to. She refused. So, they did n't get me my statement, their system screwed up my payment, but I 'm held responsible and getting charged and having a " late '' on my record.
