I have been working to clean my credit report and in contact with Midland Credit Management for over a year. They refuse to work with me on a settlement.

If I owe this balance, then I would like assistance in negotiating as they are unwilling to help.

Issue: Money was not available when promised

Complaint:
On Friday XX/XX/2020, I transferred {$400.00} USD from my XXXX  's Checking account to Gemini. 

When I went to purchase a digital asset with the funds, an additional {$400.00} was withdrawn from my checking account. I emailed technical support to inform them but left open the possibility that I could have inadvertently been to blame. 

On XX/XX/2020 I went to spend the ( unauthorized ) {$400.00} by purchasing more digital assets. Again, they withdrew {$400.00} from my XXXX 's checking account instead. I emailed tech support again and they claimed there was no issue. 

I have now unlinked my checking account to prevent further unauthorized withdrawals. 

Now, long after my last {$400.00} has cleared their waiting period, I have the USD credited and shown on my account balance. However, when I go to purchase a digital asset, I am prompted to provide a bank account. They have illegally taken {$400.00} from me and technical support is not assisting.

To whom it may concern, My name is XXXX XXXX and my loan number is XXXX. First Merchant Bank is reporting a 30-day late on my credit report. This needs to be removed. During the RESPA period with First Merchant, I was never contacted or advised that my servicing was transferred to them.

I request that the 30-day late be removed from all 3 bureaus as a courtesy by First Merchant .

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: AZ
Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Personal line of credit
Issue: Struggling to pay your loan

Complaint:
I took out a personal loan from Wells Fargo back in XX/XX/XXXX to help pay for my home remodel. Then, as a result of Covid-19, I found myself unemployed. After being placed on several 90 day payment deferrals, for a total of 180 days, I was finally offered the chance to modify the terms of the personal loan. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX  MST I asked the Wells Fargo associate from the Hardships Dept if the loan modification would negatively impact my credit score and how the payments would be reported to the credit bureaus. This gentleman could not answer my question, nor was a supervisor available. A week later, on XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXXXXXX XXXX MST, after receiving the loan modification paperwork which DID NOT detail credit reporting impacts, I called Wells Fargo 's Hardship Dept once again. I spoke to a female representative who also had no idea, nor was her supervisor available to speak. All I need to know is how the payments from the loan modification, should I choose to accept, will be reported to the credit bureaus? Without this information, I can not make an informed decision on what is best for my family. Furthermore, the absence in providing this information is deceptive.
