Company: Maximus Education, LLC dba Aidvantage
State: NJ
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are being handled

Complaint:
I consolidated my federal student loans in XXXX. At that time I owed approximately {$100000.00}. I was on forbearance until approximately XX/XX/XXXX. I then selected what I thought was the 10 year accelerated repayment plan. This plan provide that I make a set payment amount for 10 years to pay the loan off in full ( without forgiveness ). The payment amount was {$780.00}. When the loan switched to XXXX servicing, the amount was changed in XX/XX/XXXX to $ XXXX. I paid that amount until XX/XX/XXXX when the loan went on hold due to XXXX. My servicer was switched from XXXX to Aidvantage in XX/XX/XXXX. At that time, they sent me a solicitation to explore repayment options. I look at it and by looking at the option, they switched my enrollment to an income base plan. At at time, I should have had approximately 3 years left on my repayment plan. I called and told them to switch me back to my plan. They said they could not unless I reject the XXXX forbearance but when it is over they will switch me back. I called today, XXXX XXXX when I reviewed my account and it says I owe $ XXXX with a payoff date of XX/XX/XXXX. They told me a 10 year option never existed which is untrue. I have paid in approximately $ XXXX and now owe more money then when I consolidated.

Complaint:
Request To Review Denied Claims Dear Dear XXXX XXXX, I am writing in response to your letter dated XX/XX/XXXX  regarding the numerous disputed transactions that were filed on my Bank of America account ending in XXXX. While I appreciate you providing a detailed summary of the claims and their respective statuses, I find your uneven approvals and denials of these claims to be highly perplexing. 
As evidenced by the subject matter and timing of these charges, it is abundantly clear that they originate from the same fraudulent scheme perpetrated by an unknown third party without my consent. However, your decision to approve certain claims ( XXXX, XXXX ) while denying the majority of others appears inconsistent at best and contradictory at worst. 
If you had investigated the claims thoroughly, you would have undoubtedly reached the conclusion that these charges lack merit across the board. I am hard pressed to comprehend why approvals were granted for some and not others, when they clearly exhibit the same indicators of fraud according to my account history and your documentation. 
This arbitrary cherry-picking of disputes to approve casts serious doubt on the rigor of your investigative process. I request that Bank of America undertake a comprehensive review of ALL submitted claims with greater scrutiny and care before reaching determinations. Moving forward, I expect that my disputes will be evaluated fairly based on their individual merits, not on vague assumptions or internal policies that fail to account for nuances in fraud patterns. 
Additionally, please provide a detailed, point-by-point explanation for why each claim was approved or denied. I believe I am entitled to understand the rationale behind these decisions that directly affected my finances and livelihood. Anything less would be a disservice to your customers who trust you to thoroughly investigate fraud and reimburse them accordingly. 
I look forward to receiving your response to address these inconsistencies and provide next steps. Please feel free to contact me if any additional information is required from my end. As the victim of an apparent scam, I hope you can understand my position and desire for fair treatment and transparency from my financial institution. 
Thank you in advance for your cooperation and understanding.Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Complaint:
I purchased a set of tires online from Goodyear using their brand of credit card in XXXX. Because of covid I dropped off the car at the tire shop designated by Goodyear, XXXX XXXX. The charge was for four tires and included installation. Shortly thereafter I was travelling on a very crowded 2-lane road and could not control the car due to swerving, which was very dangerous. I pulled in to the nearest auto tire and brake shop ; XXXX XXXX, as it was too dangerous to try to return to XXXX XXXX. XXXX diagnosed the problem after extensive testing as over-pressurized tires, 40 psi rather than 30 psi, when XXXX XXXX installed the tires. XXXX charged {$170.00}, which was put on dispute with Goodyear. I am a XXXX old woman and would have no understanding of tire pressures or anything automotive. Goodyear was apprised of all this but says I should contact XXXX XXXX to resolve the dispute. However credit card disputes are not to be resolved in that manner, if XXXX XXXX provided faulty service the card issuer is to resolve the problem.

Complaint:
XXXX  says my credit score is unavailable, however, they did let me see my report and dispute three potentially negative postings. I felt bullied into signing up for their monthly " credit monitoring '' service and now they will not cancel it despite numerous communications to do so. 
Trans Union is even worse, they won't let me see my report and demand the same scam ; " sign up '' for our program or no dice. 
I haven't even bothered with XXXX  given their recent issues with being hacked and just expect the same treatment from them. 
If these behaviors by these companies is legal it is just barely so. 
It is ethically and morally offensive. 
Consumers are tired of being scammed!

On XX/XX/XXXX I got a notification that collection accounts showed up on my report. I filed a complaint and let them know the account doesn't belong to me. They close the dispute in less than a week and said it's accurate. I filed a second dispute at the same time and also reach out to the collection agency and told them it does not belong to me. The agency told me to send emails and contact XXXX. I took it upon myself and went further to call the hospital they reported finding out what's going on and let them know these are not my accounts. the hospital apologize and told the agency to close the account. On XX/XX/XXXX I got a letter from the collection agency stating the accounts are closed and they will notify XXXX  to remove but when I spoke to XXXX  multiple times after that and today the last time I called and spoke to a XXXX  at XXXX  is today to find out whats going on and why they are still listed on XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX  told me that they have no communication from the agency about removing collections from my account. XXXX  closes the second dispute in XXXX stating the collection agency reported the accounts belonged to me and I needed to submit another dispute. At this point, if XXXX  agents are saying there's no communication from the collection agency then the collection agency is lying and putting me through a lot of stress I don't need.
