Company: PNC Bank N.A.
State: MD
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Banking errors

Complaint:
Transactions totaling {$2100.00} from my checking account from XX/XX/2022 thru XX/XX/2022 from a dispute for a fraudulent transaction from a company caught in a scam. 

Services were purchased that were NEVER received. The bank, instead of correcting the issue and crediting the funds back to my account, are aiding in the scam and approving of the fraudulent activity for which their customers fall victim due to NO FAULT of their own. 

If banks are not for the customers, it's clear to see that PNC doesn't really care about their customers financial safety and correcting situations when THEY are wrong. 

If this were a purchase on XXXX or from XXXX XXXX for an actual product that needed to be assembled ( with both companies partnering with individual contractors to assist their customers with assembling the product ), and the product was delivered with the contractors never showing up to assemble the product, the funds would have been refunded. XXXX or XXXX XXXX receive their payment for the product, and the contractor is also paid to schedule and come out to assemble the product.

However, if the contractor does not show up and provide the services paid for, the funds should be refunded/the transaction reversed because no services were received after being paid for. Of course the transaction was authorized because the customer was paying for a service that was to be rendered ( which it never was ).

In a day and age of social media ruining companies profiles and customer retention ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ), one viral video could become a marketing and PR departments nightmare, especially when several customers have experienced the same issue and have the receipts, emails, and recorded phone conversations on how their trusted bank aids in supporting the companies that scam their customers over their customers hard earned funds on transactions they have the authority to reverse ( as I've had credits back to my account on a couple occasions when a service WAS NOT received and the bank REVERSED the transaction WITH NO PROBLEM ). 

Services paid for that are not received automatically void out a transaction as being approved/authorized and the funds are to be refunded back to the customer ( regardless if the transaction is a credit card payment OR a debit card/checking account transaction ).

Company: SLM CORPORATION
State: IL
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan
Sub-issue: Problem lowering your monthly payments

Complaint:
When I went back to school, I had no knowledge of student loans. I applied for a private loan with XXXX XXXX not knowing the difference between it and a federal student loan. The primary piece I did not understand was the income-driven repayment was not an option for private loans. I currently have a balance of {$120000.00} in private student loan debt and have a monthly payment of {$1500.00}. This does not include my federal loan debt. 
Prior to XX/XX/18, I spoke with XXXX XXXX a number of times and was told that my payment had to be past due before they would work with me. On XX/XX/18, I finally was allowed to speak to someone about lowering my monthly payment. I gave a detailed financial statement and they asked to speak to my father who is my cosigner. I explained that he could and would not pay on this loan but gave them his details. My father gave his financial statement on XX/XX/18 and he told me they would call me. After not hearing from them, I called back on XX/XX/18 ( I learned that did not have my current phone number on file ). I was told I could enroll in auto-debit to lower the interest rate by XXXX and skip my XX/XX/XXXX payment. This is an offer I had read about online and knew about so I told them it would not work and hung up. I needed to reduce the monthly payment amount considerably. I called back on XX/XX/18, thinking perhaps there was an option where I could extend the payment term or move to a graduated repayment plan. I was told unequivocally that was not an option and that all I could do was put the loan in forbearance for a month and apply to refinance at another company. I checked at XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX   XXXX. All have said I would need a co-signer that I can not get at this point for that amount of debt. The representative was polite and as helpful as she could be given the situation. Her employee number is XXXX and the confirmation for my forbearance payment is XXXX. 
I want to pay on this debt but I am not receiving any real help in lowering the monthly payment. I make XXXX/yr and have upward mobility in my career. I do not like not meeting my obligations. That said, I am at the point where I am beginning to think my only option is to try and get the debt settled through bankruptcy. 
Please, please, please help me!

Complaint:
I have contacted XXXX and several creditors that obtained my credit report without authorization, and demanded to see any legit authorization from me. 

No one has provided any proof, not the creditors, not the credit reporting agency. 

XXXX, XXXX and XXXX should request to see proof that proper authorization was obtained to request credit reports. 

They admit that no documentation is required to obtain credit reports. This practice is fraudulent, illegal.

Complaint:
I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction and frustration regarding the numerous unsuccessful attempts to remove fraudulent items from my credit report. Despite multiple efforts on my part to rectify this situation, the corrections have not been implemented, adversely impacting my financial standing. 

I submitted formal disputes through your online dispute resolution platform, providing comprehensive details and supporting documentation to substantiate my claim for the removal of fraudulent items. Unfortunately, these attempts have not resulted in the desired corrections, and the fraudulent information continues to negatively affect my creditworthiness. 

The existence of these fraudulent items has caused significant challenges, hindering my ability to secure favorable interest rates, obtain credit, and engage in essential financial transactions. I have diligently followed the established procedures, including contacting your customer service department, yet the promised corrections have not been made. 

I understand the importance of maintaining accurate and reliable credit information, and I am committed to resolving this matter promptly. However, the repeated failures to address my concerns have caused considerable distress and hindered my financial well-being. 

In light of the above, I request an immediate and thorough review of my case. I expect a comprehensive investigation into the fraudulent items on my credit report and the swift removal of any inaccuracies found. Additionally, I request regular updates on the progress of this matter and a clear timeline for resolution. 

If decisive steps are not taken promptly to correct this situation, I will be compelled to escalate this complaint to regulatory authorities and explore legal avenues to uphold my rights as a consumer. I am asking for your assistance to remove these fraudulent items in my credit file : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Sub-issue: Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card

Complaint:
My Name is XXXX XXXX Capital One Quicksilver credit card costumer account # XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/2018 I open on the line an credit card account with an promotion bonus of {$150.00} Bonus Earn a one-time {$150.00} cash bonus once you spend {$500.00} on purchases within 3 months from account opening. I was qualified and in the three weeks I received the card which I activated. I spend it more than {$500.00} on purchases within 3 months from account opening and waiting the bonus to be posted on my account but that never came. I call customer services to see why those bonus never posted on my account. And customer service stated that you really apply it for this card but we decided to give you a card named Capital One QuicksilverOne which doesnt gave you the promotion bonus of {$150.00} Bonus Earn a one-time {$150.00} cash bonus once you spend {$500.00} on purchases within 3 months from account opening but only 1.50 % cash earning. I think that Capital One Quicksilver credit higher management, purposely posted false advertisement by confusing customers and do not keep their promises or advertisement and cheating customers. Shame on those banks that do anything to make profit by posting false advertisement. Due to this situation I closed my account but Im looking for reimbursement. This card now is linked to another card number # XXXX.
