Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
Citizens One XXXX XXXX  is my lender. My business was shut down due to Covid-19. As a result, I missed 2 mortgage payments ( my payment due on XX/XX/2020 and my payment due on XX/XX/2020 ). Once my business opened back up I was able to make my payment due on XX/XX/2020. I have made all of my payments since. I am currently in forbearance. So I am not being foreclosed on due to my 2 missed payments. But I have been trying to contact my lender for 4 months to discuss a deferment of the 2 missed payments and possibly a loan modification. I have called multiple times. I am transferred to a representative fielding calls form an overseas call center. The representative is not able to provide assistance. The representative states that a Relationship Manager will call me back. No one ever calls. I have called them multiple times only to continue to get the same result. I am directed to a website that is of no use to me. Once logged in there is a phone number listed for my " relationship manager ''. The number is not in service. Relationship Manager Name : XXXX XXXX. Phone Number : XXXX. I am actively trying to resolve this issue with this lender and they are making it impossible to resolve. I can not speak to anyone who can help me. I go in circles and get the run-around constantly.

Complaint:
I received an advertisement from TD Bank for the TD Cash Visa Platinum Card,  addressed to me in the mail early XX/XX/XXXX. The advertisement stated if I was approved I would have 0 % APR for 12 billing cycles on purchases and balance transfers. It also advertised unlimited cash back on dinning and grocery store purchases, and no dinging with fees like other cards. And spending {$500.00} on purchases within 90 days of opening the account can earn {$200.00} in cash back.I did the application online and was approved right away. I received the card around XX/XX/XXXX. I used the card on XX/XX/XXXX. When I received the first billing statement it stated 0 % APR on purchases.I made the first payment XX/XX/XXXX online which was due XX/XX/XXXX. I received the second billing statement for XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX,  which also stated 0 % APR on purchases. Then XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, stating they made an error. They ( TD Bank ) made a printing error about the 0 % introductory rate on purchases, it's only for balance transfers. Now they state the APR for purchases is 24.24 %. I've only made purchases, no balance transfers.They advertised 0 % APR on purchases and balance transfers on the application mailed to me. It is also on the first two billing statements. This is false advertisement. I would not have applied for the card if it wasn't 0 % APR on purchases.

Complaint:
Every year when I re-certify my XXXX XXXX for PSLF with XXXX XXXX, they get the payment count wrong. This year was the same. On XX/XX/XXXX my PSLF XXXX XXXX was re-certified, and they told me I have 60 qualifying payments for one group of loans, and 59 for another. These loans are consolidated and should both show 60 qualifying payments. It is under review, but they can not provide a time frame for when I can expect the number to be corrected. It should not take so much effort on the part of the borrower to keep tabs on XXXX XXXX to do their job correctly and provide correct payment counts. Since they became my servicer several years ago I have spent many hours on the phone with them, emailing them, and carefully documenting everything to keep everything on track. The poor quality of their service is unacceptable.
