Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: CA
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I aquired about {$34000.00} in federal student loans with Nel Net, from attending XXXX XXXX and after consulting with a Credit Repair Attorney and Credit Analyst, I learned that I have XXXX accounts with Nel Net. Each account is showing that I have 10 late payments, with a total of 90 late payments combined. They are showing on my credit report as negative accounts and it is heavily impacting me and my credit. I placed my loans on forbearance due to economic hardship and while my loans were on a forbearance status, my student loan company kept on reporting my payments as late payments to the credit bureau in XXXX, XXXX- ( 90 days late ), XXXX- ( 120 days late ), XXXX ( 120 days late ), XXXX ( 120 days late ), XXXX ( 120 days late ), and in XXXX XXXX- ( 120 days late ) and again in XXXX XXXX- ( 90 days late ), XXXX- ( 120 days late ), XXXX- ( 90 days late ), XXXX- ( 120 days late ). I placed my loans on forbearance a few times and each time I would do so, I would place my loans in forbearance status over the phone with a representative because I did not have immediate access to a fax machine or computer. I would also ask what I needed to do on my end to make sure I wouldn't fall into a negative status and their response was to continue to call back. 
Nel Net did correct some negative reports and I really appreciate what they did but after learning of the new negative reports, I am asking and begging Nel Net to please remove the negative reports off of my credit. It is really impacting me personally and mentally, there is a very high chance that I will need to move out of my curent home with my children and move into a relatives home because I can't afford to pay a high deposit rate due to my credit that is being impacted by the negative reports from Nel Net.

I've asked Nel Net to please help me out and they state they can't do anything for me but to file a dispute with them. They also stated I was not eligible for the forbearance program because my time on the program expired and I was not informed of the situation.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
Due to extenuating circumstances I went on a payment plan with them in the beginning of this year. I told the rep that my hours were furloughed and I needed some help. So I was to pay one month of payment in two installments as I did not qualify for deferment and they never even mentioned anything about COVID deferment at that time. I did not think much of it. I paid half {$320.00} when I called and then I paid the other half along with the monthly payment {$970.00} on XX/XX/XXXX before their due date of XX/XX/XXXX. Since it was a Saturday I even emailed their customer service on XX/XX/XXXX stating to update their records and not report the account late. 

But what do you know they reported this account late not only for XXXX but also for XXXX as well. I disputed with the CRAs to no avail. So I sent First Investors a goodwill letter to not report it as late. They declined to update my report even when it was their oversight and so I think it is gross misrepresentation of the reporting they have furnished. And of course they don't err on the side of customer service like all the other companies yet are intent on destroying people 's credits and credibility. 
Most of the complaints online where they have mistakenly reported and ruined people 's credits their response is if we do a goodwill adjustment to you we have to do it to all. That is just ludicrous. So they would rather destroy everyone 's credit not just yours. 

Dismal customer service. If anything else could be said for this company, it is that their customer service, for all their bluster, is atrocious. I realize that it is next to impossible to place the blame squarely on the customer service representative, since their managers and supervisors are ultimately responsible for the way their staff interact with customers. Apologies does not solve problems, results and actions do. As a matter of course, I occasionally become frustrated with the service and simply depart but in this case you can't do that because you have a mortgage with them. I even emailed goodwill letters to their executives about my issues and never even received an acknowledgment that they have received my messages. That is why I said their service is left much to be desired as it falters from top down.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: VA
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Closing an account
Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
I have been a member of Wellsfargo bank for 5 years with out any incident. I added my XXXX XXXX too my account and became XXXX on his acct but since I am the adult it is in my name. My son was scammed and tried to deposit checks into his account that were not real. I had no idea this took place until I received a letter stating a check for {$6700.00} had tried to be deposited on XX/XX/XXXX using a Wellsfargo atm. Upon discovering this I immediately called the bank to find out what was going on. I was informed that all 3 of my accounts were being closed not just his account. The reason for closing my account is that Wellsfargo alleged my login credentials were used to deposit these checks. There is no way this is possible. I have a XXXX XXXX set up on my Wellsfargo app so noone can get into my app on my phone but me. These checks were not deposited into my accounts but into my sons. Wellsfargo alleged that I used my mobile app on my phone to make 2 of these deposits however they said the location of the deposits being made were in Pennsylvania. I live in XXXX XXXX XXXX hours away this occurred on XXXX  I was at work so there is no way I was in XXXX Also there is no trace of any mobile checks being made from my phone. I went into a branch and a person banker looked in my app and couldnt find any deposited checks via the mobile app. The 3rd deposit was made using a local Atm once again my debit card wasnt used to make this transaction my son used his debit card linked to his account. By there on admission they are only closing my accounts because my information was allegedly used. However just as I explained this was not possible. This has caused me hardship bc of my funds being held, my paycheck not arriving on time, and because my account is being closed due to fraud its making it hard for me to find another bank. I am a victim of fraud however I am being treated like a criminal. Every time I call to resolve this. I am being bounced from dept to dept, being told different things and with no real resolution other than my acoounts being closed. Wellsfargo did not properly research these issues.
