Complaint:
In XX/XX/2021, {$3100.00} was charged to my account for radio and online fees related to a fundraising ad campaign for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a nonprofit bringing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX. The campaign was to run online for the month of XX/XX/2021 and then run a week of radio ads leading up to XX/XX/2021 during XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

Ads did not run and as I began to complain the radio sales team stopped responding to my inquiries. I am attaching screen shots of the ads platform showing no ads running. 

I then contacted the radio station one last time informing them I would contact the credit card provider, UMB Financial. They did not respond so I went to UMB Financial explaining that the radio station did not provide the ad time as promised to get a refund. The following four months have been a back and forth with UMB stating I owe the {$3100.00} for ads that did not run. 

I have asked multiple times that the charges be reversed and am now contacting members of the media.

Company: Nelnet, Inc.
State: TX
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Problem with customer service

Complaint:
On XX/XX/23, I initiated contacted with Nelnet, the new service provider for my federal student loans. Upon creating an account, I noticed that Multi-Factor Authentication was not offered during signup, and not available for configuration after signup. I asked Nelnet about their password policy, which limits passwords to 15 characters, as well as only offering the inclusion of only six special characters within their passwords, as well as the lack of MFA. 

Specifically, I said, " Why is MFA not an option, and why are passwords limited to 15 characters? '' Their response : " There is a mulit factor authentication, you have to pick a picture, when you set up the account. I apologize, that I can not answer this better for you. '' My response : " That's not Multi-Factor Authentication. That's user validation that they're logging into the correct account, not the same thing. If I was a threat actor, it would be simple to just _ignore_ that. '' Their response : " I get where you are coming from, do you have any other questions? '' My response : " What will you do with this? '' Their response : " You do not have to sign up for XXXX. If you are not comfortable with the process then you more than welcome to call in for questions on your account. Nothing will be done with this chat, you can save it, if you want and XXXX is the online login. '' I then linked https : //www.consumerfinance.gov/compliance/circulars/circular-2022-04-insufficient-data-protection-or-security-for-sensitive-consumer-information/, which lists the requirements for MFA. 

I then let them know that they'd informed me as an agent of Nelnet that they're not going to do anything, so I'd be contacting the CFPB regarding their disregard of the security requirements for accounts. 

Their response to this : " They have a security image as well as a password on a secure website. If they have an issue with that you can file a complaint for them. What we have is not violating anything, if it was we would have change it already. '' This is highly disturbing, in that they are a large service provider for federal student loans.

Issue: Trouble using your card
Sub-issue: Credit card company won't increase or decrease your credit limit

Complaint:
In XXXX 2017 I booked a family cruise on XXXX XXXX XXXX. I used my Chase card to make the payment. I have always met my obligations regarding the credit card agreement as far as making payments timely. While onboard i patronized the Casino. I later found out that XXXX is notorious for deceiving and fraudulently cheating customers in the casinos on board. I was told by XXXX employee ( the hostess in the casino ) that I can used my onboard room card to play up to {$3000.00}. The limit on my Chase card wsd {$3500.00}. 
While in the casino I played mostly from winnings as well as spending money I brought onboard. I went to a Casino patron to check my balance they advised the couldnt tell me i would have to go to guest services. I figured since i could only use up to XXXX based on the Casino rules and my limit being {$3500.00}. I could not exceed that. I won {$2700.00} and played mostly from that. So imagine my shock when on my way off the ship i was given a bill from the casino for {$6800.00} approximately. I emailed XXXX and requested an detailed itemized reciept of winnings played as well as the amounts played from the onboard card. I have yet to receive that. 
To my complete surprise Chase bank accepted the charges for almost double my limit. I called Chase to question why they would accept a charge for double my limit when that was not our credit card agreement. Had i tried to purchase an item for {$6800.00} it would have certainly benn declined. Chase agreed to take a partial amount off to honor the card a agreement. The balance i would resolve through XXXX once proper billing had been supplied. After making a large credit card payment chase went ahead and added the balance back without my knowledge. They have made no attempts to resolve the issue. I feel Chase and XXXX XXXX XXXX are deceptive and unscrupulous in thier practices to mislead consumers.

On XX/XX/2022 I, the consumer and natural person, was denied credit by Bank of America when I applied for a auto loan. Adverse action against a consumer is AGAINST THE LAW according to the Equal Credit Opportunity Act which is codified in 15 U.S.C 1691c and is subject to civil liability under 15 U.S.C 1692k.

Bank of America is in violation of 15 U.S.C 1642, U.S.C 1681m and 12 CFR 1002 because I the consumer made an application in good faith, but credit was not issued. Furthermore, because my social security number ( credit card ) was used and I received NO benefit. This is proof of fraudulent activity ( unauthorized use of credit card ) on behalf of Bank of America.

Sub-issue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Complaint:
I am a XXXX woman who worked very hard to purchase my first home. I also worked very hard to qualify for my interest rate of 2.5 %. I made all of my payments on time for over a year including extra until XXXX. I found myself with my job 's hours reduced and thus struggling to make my monthly payments. I never fell behind. I applied and was approved for XXXX XXXX XXXX program through the state of Ohio. They agreed to pay my mortgage from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. Around the first part of XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted my mortgage company to inquire about the payment and mentioned if that payment was not made, I wanted to make it because I did not want my credit to be impacted. The mortgage company assured me that while I am in the program the mortgage company is not able to report late payments to the credit bureaus. Since I have been placed in this program, I am unable to view my account online, I am no longer able to make any payments on my account to protect my credit and the mortgage company has been reporting my mortgage as late for the last 3 months. My credit score, that I worked very hard to maintain, has tanked XXXX points. If I had known that this was going to be the outcome, I would have just worked more jobs and not asked for help. At the end of the program my credit is going to be shot. I would like some help in getting my credit report corrected. I have asked the mortgage company to do the things they say they are going to do and correct my credit report. I have gone through the credit bureaus and disputed the late payments, and the mortgage company is obviously stating they are accurately reported because they are never removed or updated. Please help me correct this situation.
