Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: MI
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:
I received direct Federal student loans when I attended XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX from XXXX. The loans were paid directly to the school for my tuition. 

In XXXX I received information from my original student loan servicer XXXX Kentucky XXXX XXXX ) instructing me that they were no longer servicing loans and were transferring my loans to another servicer, Great Lakes Education. All of this occurred without my request. 

I contacted Great Lakes in XXXX to find out if my balance was eligible forgiveness because that was a condition of the repayment plan I was in ( 20 year forgiveness ) and my loans were near that age. Great Lakes falsely told me that my loans were originated in XXXX and therefore forgiveness was not an option. This is 100 % false. My loans originated only from law school XXXX. 

This year Great Lakes closed and transferred my loans again without my involvement to Nelnet. I have sent Nelnet XXXX emails and have also tried calling. Additionally I have sent email and called the XXXX department of education to correct the information about my loans so I am eligible for forgiveness. No one has done anything. 

I am at the point where I am going to hire a private attorney to sue them if your department does nothing to fix the problem.

Company: Ocwen Financial Corporation
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Other type of mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
Dear To Whom This May Concern, I am presenting this letter before you with true facts, documents, and recorded conversations that were made with permission which will be attached to this letter that can prove and confirm everything that is being presented is true.

I am sending documentation of my Petition For Review that I made for the Supreme Court Of California which has been denied without even being looked at, I find this to be outrageous and this is before the Superior Court Of XXXX XXXX in XXXX California, XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX throughout my case without leads to amend. If you do not know what this means, this means I can not go back to the courts and fix anything, my case has been dismissed, so now I had to appeal to the Appellant Court in which I did. And they also dismissed my case. 

This all has to do with my lending company who is Ocwen Loan Servicing. Ocwen Loan Servicing chose me, I did not choose Ocwen, I do not have a choice in who owns my homes mortgage. Ocwen Loan Servicing is rated as one of the worst companies in the world with an F rating in the XXXX XXXX XXXX, sued by the XXXX XXXX XXXX investigation for XXXX XXXX dollars and won. And also, Ocwen has a federal lawsuit pending since XXXX and Ocwen has over 300,000 complaints and numerous lawsuits and unlawful foreclosures in 49 states for fraud. 
All I am trying to do, in all of the courts I have been through, having to hire several lawyers, which has cost me thousands and thousands of dollars all because I am trying to defend my home from Ocwen Loan Servicings dishonest, unethical, unlawful, misleading, fraudulent business tactics that are being used to steal my home to enrich Ocwens greedy pockets, which is forcing my family and me in a destitute state of homelessness. 

This is something that I want to bring attention to, How can a company be convicted of all these fraudulent acts, have hundreds of thousands of complaints, being known to be a fraudulent company, convicted of fraud, be able to buy, purchase or inquire my homes mortgage and rain havoc upon me and my family since XXXX. For eleven years, I have been going through this. How can any of this be legal? 

This is my first and only home. Ocwen does not just steal homes, they destroy families. 

This has got to stop. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Company: BBVA FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: TX
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Savings account
Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low
Sub-issue: Non-sufficient funds and associated fees

Complaint:
I have been banking with BBVA for about a year. There is a internal transfer every month from my checking to my savings it is never on the exact date. So I am left with a negative balance in my checking account. I then immediately deposit the money into my checking account to avoid an insufficient funds fee. However the next business day I always see a {$38.00} insufficient funds fee even though I have already deposited the money the day before. I usually contact the bank and get this issue rectified however today XX/XX/2021 I did call the call center spoke to a representative they informed me that this fee is correct and theres nothing that can be done. I then asked for a supervisor he rebuttal that the supervisor would provide the same information. I insisted on speaking to a supervisor he then informed me that the supervisor is not available that I will receive a call back not with a specific time frame. This is an ongoing issue that happens every month and I feel needs to be looked into. These are deceptive practices and unlawful commerce.

Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC
State: CA
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional fixed mortgage
Issue: Loan servicing, payments, escrow account

Complaint:
From : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX To : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Wednesday, XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX RE : NationStar Mortgage XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX TX XXXX Lender / payment To Whom It May Concern : Mortgage Account Number : XXXX I wish to raise an official complaint in respect of NationStar 's treatment of my mortgage account on the basis that I do not believe that I have been treated fairly. 
My understanding of the basis of this mortgage was that the rate would only ever vary when the base rate changed and when there is a need explaining always on phone it is about escrow and if I need to complaint go to my california representatives. In XX/XX/XXXX NationStar buys or takeover my mortgage from XXXX and a month later they increased my monthly payment from XXXX to XXXX. This problem referred from the long silence they have when I try to communicate with them. They now seem to be telling me that they are able to adjust the tracker rate margin to XX/XX/XXXX. Had I known about this I would have chosen another mortgage product/lender since XXXX promised me something. 
I have been misled by both XXXX and NationStarXXXX and every customer service representative I have contact with and do not believe they have held over me some Financial Conduct Authority principles of needing to be clear, fair and not misleading. 
I have also been advised of case law which supports the requirement for important conditions to be made clear and obvious in contracts. That was definitely not the case in the NationStar mortgage documentation which they have sent me none. How many times I requested to a document to explain it to me? The replay always has been they DO NOT ANY RECORD. 
I have no copies to these changes except those computer printouts and then notices that they have been escalating my complaint to you. I understand that I am one of many thousands of affected customers and I will do all that I can to encourage as many as possible to fight NationStar on this issue should they continue to be unreasonable. 
I await your response. 
Your faithfully XXXX

Complaint:
XXXX account # XXXX {$12000.00} the creditor said they would not report any negative payment to the bureaus for 6 months because I called prior to advise them my income had changed significantly due to covid. I even asked the representative if there was anything I needed to sign and she said no that she would enter all information into the system. 


When Federal Law Prohibits Negative Credit Reporting The CARES Act, which President Trump signed into law on XX/XX/2020, Act amends the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to stop adverse credit reporting during the COVID-19 crisisbut only under specific circumstances. 

Under the amended FCRA, if a " furnisher '' makes an accommodation because you were affected by COVID-19 during the covered period ( see below ), that furnisher must report your account as current to the credit reporting agencies, so long as you weren't already delinquent on payments. ( A " furnisher '' is an entity, like a lender or creditor, that provides information relating to consumers to one or more credit reporting agencies for inclusion in a credit report.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Personal information incorrect

Complaint:
Sunbit Now LLC has a Installment loan that is on my XXXX report that is NOT MINE. I called Sunbit Customer Service and asked them what this loan was for and they told me it was for a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I live in XXXX XXXX Florida. 12 hours away. I asked for the address on file and it was from a old address on a house I sold 9 months ago, I asked for the DOB on file and it was NOT my DOB, I asked for the SS # on file and the rep said they could not provide it for me but it was not the one I gave them. I asked for them to send me a copy of the signed loan agreement and it has a credit score of XXXX on it as of XX/XX/XXXX. My score was higher than that on XX/XX/XXXX in XXXX XXXX, proving the SS @ on file on this loan is NOT MINE. So basically Sunbit Now LLC are doing fake loans on unsuspecting consumers using just their old address and putting in fake SS # and DOBs. I contacted XXXX and filed a dispute and they said it was up to creditor to remove. Sunbit wanted me to file a Police report and send in copy of my DL to them, no way I am sending them this info when they are already committing fraud, making up fake loans. 

How can you have a Installment loan on my credit report when the loan : 1. Doesnt have correct DOB 2, Doesnt have my signed consent 3. Doesnt have correct SS # 4. Doesnt have my correct address 5. Doesnt have a photo ID of me If they had a copy of my Drivers License the DOB would be right would it not?

This is blatant lender fraud. Making up and funding loans on unsuspecting customers using bits of information.

I asked the dealership to confirm the additional services were removed and asked for a revised contract and my calls continued to get ignored. Credit Acceptance who funded the loan told me they could not do anything about it. I was eventually able to obtain the Service Contract information through XXXX XXXX XXXX and was advised by the company there was no active policy showing for my VIN or under my personal information provided.
