Consumer complaint: I opened a small loan with this company who takes advantage of consumers having a hard time by giving them loans and charging an insane interest rate almost doubling the payback amount ... ... ... But I was struggling to feed my kids and keep my credit good so i opened a loan with the intention of paying it off and having a positive affect on my credit. 

XXXX into XX/XX/XXXX i defaulted on the loan because i was the sole income in my house and my fiance was a XXXX. He suddenty went back to work causing me to need last minute child care. I had to use my bill money to pay for care for my kids which set me back for months. I tried explaining this to them and they were very rude over the phone using profanity and just all around nasty. I still made a few payments after that trying to catch up but i just couldnt get back on track. This company also caused me alot of grief and stress as they would call my job to my BOSS 'S DESK PHONE ... ..ALL.DAY.LONG! Even after he asked them to stop calling they still called and almost caused me to get fired. The called my MOTHER and scared her as well and she doesnt even live in this state asking her for my wherabouts! They even came in person to my house and were yelling at me in front of my kids. 

This is very rude and unprofessional not to mention against collection laws. Fast forward to XX/XX/XXXX I paid them the balance IN FULL and requested as a coutresy for them to delete the reporting from the credit bureaus and they refused. I requested a call back from Manager XXXX who handles the Georgia offices XXXX times only to be ignored and never receive a call back. These people scared myself, my kids and jeopardized my job! These people should be ashamed and should be taken out of business.

Consumer complaint: Bank of America XXXX BOA XXXX continues to defy the CFPB and other governmental agencies including legislation. 
This is my XXXX separate complaint against BOA, apparently your office is simply a 'Horse and Pony '' show. This time BOA has found a way to manipulate legislation by charging {$65.00} for a returned check they do so by breaking it down into XXXX separate charges XXXX. {$40.00} for " Payment returned unpaid '' XXXX. " returned check fee '' I thought REALLY i mean are you kidding me ...! I had to break down laughing for the boldness and obvious lack of respect towards all governmental agencies. Let me give you a bit of insight on how all banks respond to the CFPB 's investigations. 
the CFPB contacts the bank ( let say BOA ), a representative from BOA emails or calls me apologizing but offers NO solution. I am always stuck filing lawsuits and dealing with this alone. By the way, I have n't lost a lawsuit yet against any financial institution or credit bureau ( XXXX ). However, it is time consuming and invasive. 
So you guys can continue to be ineffective or dig down and do what XXXX XXXX Americans continue to hope for. 
Additionally, although I have filed disputes with the credit bureaus and BOA, BOA continue to deliberately violate Fed. Law XXXX FCRA ) by confirming accuracy of debt DURING the dispute process. ( In other words, they do n't give a XXXX about policy ) In the meantime, XXXX XXXX we launched last year intending to educate voters and expose political XXXX focused in MICHIGAN. However with over XXXX XXXX registered voters in our data base we decided to go national ( website is currently under construction so we can handle the heavier traffic ). But to see our effectiveness you only need to research what happened to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and guess who was responsible to exposing that XXXX!

Consumer complaint: I tried to purchase a condo in XXXX XXXX south Carolina. The bank that I dealt with ( Home Bridge Financial Services ) waited until the day of closing to tell me that I could not rent this unit out so I had to get a different loan for 3 % higher than the XXXX they was already charging me. I had already paid out Earnest Money, Appraisal Fees, and Home inspection Fees. Costing me over {$2000.00} and lots of time. These financial institutions needs to be takin out of business.

Consumer complaint: U.S. Bank allowed an identity thief to obtain a bankcard and checking account in my name 2 1/2 weeks after the bank contacted me and was aware of a fraudulent credit card application attempt. The first credit card application was apparently denied but no further attempt at stopping the application process was in effect two weeks later. The thieves were able to obtain a debit card attached to a new checking account after I specifically advised the U.S. Bank fraud alert department not to allow credit because I did not apply for credit nor did I have any intention of applying for credit. I was told by the U.S. Bank representative that the fraud alert at the credit bureaus was effective in stopping the attempt. Apparently U.S. Bank allowed the credit to go through because the thieves deposited {$1000.00} in a new checking account. The new debit card was used for purchases which triggered an automatic fraud alert telephone call to my house on XXXX XXXX, 2015 so that is how I know it was being used fraudulently. I suspect mail fraud was also involved because the address on the application was not mine.

Consumer complaint: Last year my husband and I bought a house. The loan was done through XXXX. When did applied for the FHA loan we were told by the loan officer XXXX XXXX, that we qualified for a Mortgage Credit Certificate based on being a first time home buyer, credit income and income requirements. A year later as we are doing our taxes we realized we never received the MCC certificate. Later after investigation we find out the loan officer never processed the MCC application with the loan. Therefore, now every year we file we can not claim that tax credit which is 20 % of your annual mortgage interest will be a direct federal tax credit, resulting in a dollar-for-dollar reduction of your annual federal income tax liability. 

Company response: Company believes complaint is the result of an isolated error
Consumer complaint: I would like to put a freeze on my XXXX year old 's SS #, but the current methods make this unbearably difficult. As I understand it, I have to physically send copies of his birth certificate, SS card, and various other forms of ID for him and me, to each of the XXXX credit bureaus to first find out if there is currently any fraudulent activity on his account. Then, once I receive these in the mail, I have to go through the same process again with all the same attachments, to place the freeze for all XXXX agencies. Luckily I live in GA, and I understand there is no fee for a freeze in my state for children under XXXX, but I am amazed that other states charge, ( per agency? ) for this service. I would like to think that our government could help to protect our children by making the credit freeze process easier for parents to initiate. Even to go as far as to have a simple check box on the SS application form for an infant to request an initial freeze on the account until a child reaches XXXX years of age.

I contacted Suntrust and informed them what happened and have been making monthly payments. My credit card was connected to my checking account for overdraft protection. The checks are being invested by XXXX XXXX Fraud department and XXXX XXXX Police. Suntrust has called me XXXX times to collect the debt. They are aware of what happened and I am making payments monthly but they have continued to call me although I have asked them not to call me. I am currently on XXXX with many medical problems and I am not suppose to get stressed. I consider this harassment because there is nothing that I can do because I am not employed. I have paid them {$900.00} within the past 3 weeks and it does n't seem to matter. I banked with Suntrust for 36 years and I expected to be treated better than this. They have treated me like a criminal. My credit card limit was {$6000.00}. The additional {$3900.00} made my account over the limit. I am being harassed for the overage.

Consumer complaint: I have received robo calls off and on for 6 months, sometimes multiple calls in a day. The calls stopped for about a month but have resumed. I do not have caller ID, so do not have a called from number to share. Robo call advises that they are calling from 'AmSher ' regarding a debt collection. Advised to call XXXX. I have no known debts to be collected. Out of curiosity and in an attempt to end the calls, I called the number a few months ago and got a machine ... I was provided with no information so was unable to enter a 'case number ' or agent name ... I just called again, just to check again ... Currently, their answering machine does not identify them as AmSher or any other company. Previously, the answering machine asked the callers to leave a detailed message ( I did not! ) including name and contact number. Now, the answering machine has a robo woman answer without identifying the company name, then it 'clicks ' over to a robo male like it switched lines and he says all agents are currently busy then askes you to leave a message. Very benign yet very alarming considering the company is supposed to be a collection agency and I have no known debt to be collected!
