Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: TX
Product: Payday loan, title loan, or personal loan
Sub-product: Installment loan
Issue: Problem when making payments

Complaint:
I took a loan out from my Wells Fargo 401 ( k ) in XXXX of 2016. The repayment plan is {$300.00} on the XXXX and XXXX of every month for 60 months via an ACH credit transaction initiated by Wells Fargo. 9 times now over the first 3 years of repaying this loan, Wells Fargo has taken out a double payment of {$600.00}. Each time this happens I have to spend an inordinate amount of time on the phone explaining the issue and following up to ensure I am re-credited the over drafted amount. I have also asked them repeatedly to identify the cause of this issue and work to rectify it. This should be a simple transaction for any bank, particularly one the size of Wells Fargo. At this point I have lost all confidence in Wells Fargo as a banking institution and their ability to correct their errors. They clearly don't care about their customers and I'm convinced they won't do anything to fix this issue until a federal agency steps in and forces them to. I am asking for your help. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Sub-issue: Problem while selling or giving up the vehicle

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022 my husband and I purchased a used vehicle from creative credit. We had previously purchased a car from them and went through united for financing. We again used united. We purchased a warranty as part of buying the car. The cars original price was XXXX and we put down XXXX leaving a balance of XXXX plus the warranty. We were told we needed to pay off in 1 year so we were not carrying two auto loans. Within a month of bringing the car home it began to experience battery drain issues, not starting the following day. Over the course of XXXX through XXXX we purchased 3 batteries, a starter, and new spark plugs trying to stop the drain issue. We had the alternator tested and it was fine. On XX/XX/XXXX we brought it to creative credit shop and requested a diagnostic which we paid over XXXX for. If there was an issue the warranty would cover the diagnostic and the problem. After having the car for weeks and racking up over XXXX repair bill, the shop called and said they had figured it out, it was the stereo. When we asked how we owed over XXXX we were told they replaced multiple sensors, spark plugs, oil change, battery, battery cables, and the fuel pump. The fuel pump was covered under warranty. After getting warranty to take care of their part we over under XXXX. When we arrive at the shop we ask what they did about stereo, they said they unplugged it, which meant they still failed to fix the problem. We had to take it to another place and pay XXXX for that to be fixed. By XXXX the car began again to not start. We called the shop and they told us there was nothing they could do. By may the vehicle had to be towed home twice, and the last time it made a loud bang and would not start. We had the vehicle towed back to creative credit and made it clear that we are surrendering the vehicle. We were sold a lemon, the contract ended up being completely different than what we agreed to with us now owing more than the original price of the car, and the warranty is expired. United told us it wasnt their problem.

Complaint:
Attached you will find detailed dispute docs detailing the inaccuracy and the validity of the debt collection attempt. Let 1st say that this account was removed from my XXXX consumer report due to the company performing a thorough verification and validation. So I question what was your verfication process. I don't see anywhere that states where the account was last verified. I don't see a ( n ) account status on this report either so is it reporting open or closed. Account is showing a balance owed yet I have never receivied a 1099-c from the " original creditor ''. The dates last active on this reporting are egregiously inaccurate and of course according to US 1681 everything has to be 100 % accurate on my consumer report. How is that so if the account was properly investigated. I'm willing to battle this to no end to clear my name and preserve my positive consumer rating!! Delete this XXXX now!!

Complaint:
Dispute XXXX Closed without looking at all of the facts. 
Merchant did not refund the full amount I paid for item when it was returned. Dispute was initiated in XXXX and Discover only looks at whether a transaction is valid not that the amount of the refund was less than the amount paid. As noted per the enclosed attachments, I was charged {$97.00} and only received {$79.00} in refund. As the description of the item attached ; merchant states " full refund in 30 days if not satisfied with item ''. Item was returned within the 30-day time frame. Discover closed the dispute and did not credit the shortage of {$17.00} that merchant did not refund. Again, it is not about a valid transaction that Discover continues to refer to ; it is about the correct amount of money not being refunded by merchant that advertises " free 30 day returns ''. Please assist.

Complaint:
I have disputed the referenced accounts to the 3 main credit bureaus and do not owe your company anything. I dont know this company and I do not recall ever having this debt and appears to be fraud, see attached FTC Report. Moreover, no adequate information has been given and noticed these accounts appear to violate my rights as well, per 15 USC 1692 ( e ) ( f ) ( g ). Moreover, you stated the account was verified as accurate by law 15 USC 1681 ( e ). Per 15 USC 1681 ( e ) The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. Investigations weren't completed as described by law and no factual information should be on credit reports. Im requesting the removal of accounts and/or monetary compensation due to violations of my rights. Im currently seeking litigation regarding consistent harassment, unfair debt practices, adding without my permission/authorization within 5 days, and more. As the original creditor, only I can validate the debt therefore Im requesting removal and this account violates my consumer rights in several ways. Please remove and provide some updates within 4 days of receipt, as this has been ongoing for over 3-4 months.
