Company: SANTANDER HOLDINGS USA, INC.
State: PA
Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Getting the loan

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I was approved for a XXXX personal loan from Santander Bank ( loan # XXXX ). Since I didn't hear from anyone on XX/XX/XXXX I called the number on the initial correspondence XXXX XXXX  XXXX At that time i was advised that my loan processor was XXXX XXXX XXXX. After speaking with XXXX XXXX, he requested my drivers license and my passport which I scanned for him. After that date I didn't receive any return calls. On XX/XX/XXXX I again called and spoke with XXXX XXXX who stated that I would have to re-submit my credentials, which I did again. 
After receiving no call back on XX/XX/XXXX I called and spoke with XXXX who stated she will let XXXX XXXX know that I called. No call back. 
On XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with XXXX XXXX after I initiated the calls. 
On XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with XXXX XXXX stated XXXX XXXX was not available. 
On XXXX and XXXX I complained to XXXX about no calls from XXXX XXXX and they hung up the phone. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email that XXXX XXXX withdrew my loan application without consulting with me or explaining the reason. 
I then went to my local bank and was told that they can get me a loan at 11.74 % which is a payment of more than XXXX per month. 
BAIT AND SWITCH!!!!!

Company: AES/PHEAA
State: UT
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Received bad information about your loan

Complaint:
Two problems : 1. The fed loan website explicitly says that the coronavirus package can halt payments on my loan but these halted months will NOT count towards PSLF, which conflicts with what your site and many others say. I understood that I could halt payments AND those months would still count towards PSLF. Fedloan seems to be unwilling to recognize that as the situation. What is the truth? 
2. They calculated my repayment for a year based on my Obvious gross income that I provided. They made no attempt to get an adjusted discretionary income from me and I didnt know I had done wrong until they got my tax return one year later and said oh, your payment should actually be THIS. Which turned out to be about 1/3 the amount I was paying. So they essentially fleeced me out of ~XXXX that year and would not return the excess I was paying that I was NOT obligated to pay. It seems that if they get a tax return at the end of the year and your income is such that you were making more than the minimum payments required you should be able to get that back. If the government takes too much money from me in taxes, I GET IT BACK. Why wont the student loan office do the same thing?!! Its criminal and I am very upset by this. I have made complaints with both fedloan, student aid.gov, and even my government representatives and nobody will help me. That extra XXXX would sure help now ...

Complaint:
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting act. The List of accounts below has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681. 

I told Experian, XXXX, and XXXX to reinvestigate these accounts : XXXX Acct # - XXXX However, they stated everything was complete and accurate. But how is that possible if the open date, date of last activity and much more is incorrect. According to 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ) they are supposed to modify accounts that aren't reporting correctly.

15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A. States I have the right to privacy.

15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions.

15 U.S.C 1681c. ( a ) ( 5 ) Section States : no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information Any other adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years.

Also they aren't even in compliance with metro 2 credit reporting. I have evidence to prove my case

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022 I spoke with the creditor Receivables Management about paying a debt in order to clear the information from my credit report. I spoke with a representative and the explained that once the debt is paid they can remove it but it would take 30 to 60 days. I paid {$470.00} to the debtor. 
" I recently followed up with the debtor on XX/XX/XXXX to inform them that the debt was still reflected on my report as settled but it was not removed. They explained to me that the account was settled and they are not required to remove it. I informed them that I spoke about the debt being removed when I made the payment and the representative said they could remove the debt after it was paid. However, I am now being told something different. And they redirected me to file a complaint with the credit bureaus, but I don't see how this is the case when they were the ones who informed me they would remove it.
