Complaint:
My father tried to send me {$500.00} on Venmo so that I could purchase a laptop from XXXX. We had been talking about this for awhile. I made a venmo account specifically for this reason and as soon as he sent venmo froze both mine and his account. His account had a few thousand dollars in it because it was his business account. I have tried reaching out, called multiple times and I finally got someone to explain that the reason they did it is because we used the word " laptop '' on what the money was for and unfortunately the person that told me that ( venmos SUPPORT DEPARTMENT ) had no ability to do anything about it ( he told me so ) its completely in the hands of the " account specialist '' that you conveniently can not call.

I have filed a police report stating that these accounts are not mine and that my identity may have been stolen which I have included with this letter. I have listed the accounts below. 

I do not know how these items ended upon my credit report, but I never signed for or agreed to these charges. I dont know who gave you this information! I would like a copy of whatever says that these accounts are mine, because I assure you, I have never taken out these charges.

Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage
Sub-issue: Applying for or obtaining a modification, forbearance plan, short sale, or deed-in-lieu

Complaint:
I applied for a modification from Selene Finance on numerous occasions, and have been denied for insufficient income. Selene received my loan from XXXX Mortgage. XXXX had approved me for a modification and rescinded it because the Recorder of Deeds office was closed here in XXXX. Since then, I have repeatedly provided Selene complete modification packets that have not been revised in a timely process. Once the time frame gets to 90 days they deny it and request the same documents. In addition, Selene Finance is Dual Tracking. I have been working diligently toward a modification and they have been working towards foreclosure and a resolution through modification. I have requested to speak to them and they have claimed they havent received authorization from my attorney, who neglected to inform me of the court dates of this escalating to a judgement. Selene stopped sending me mail and stopped talking to me. They spoke to me for a very long time while I was represented by an attorney, then refused midstream after my attorney authorized them several times. My most concern is Dual Tracking.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Complaint:
We have contacted SPS and tried to work out something on out loan and they are not willing to help us. We feel that that they are using predatory lending practices to try to force us out of our home. 

On XX/XX/XXXX, I was laid off and reached out to them to get help under their unemployment plan that they offer. They denied us and sent us a repayment plan instead. It was for {$3100.00}. 

Also, they sent us a foreclosure notice and referred us to an attorney. I thought under the new stimulus package that President5 Biden signed, that all foreclosures were stopped until XX/XX/XXXX. They are violating this that was enacted by our president. I called them about this and they offered no answer or even discussed this. 

I had also asked about a forbearance plan and they denied this as well. 

We also asked about a new loan modification and they denied this as well. 

We sent them a payment on XX/XX/XXXX and they sent it back to us. 

We are trying to get this settled. 

We have not contacted an attorney yet. I wanted to see if there was one that was recommended. 

No matter what we do, they are denying everything and we feel we need some help as well as maybe an attorney.

Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are being handled

Complaint:
Hello -- I requested a refund of the payments I made during the pandemic to my student loans. I did in fact pay off this balance in full and the loan has been closed. In light of the recent student debt relief announcements though, I've requested a refund of the payments I made as eligible under the CARES Act. 

However, I find the lack of any information from my loan provider, EdFinancial, concerning. After requesting the refund, I received no sort of confirmation email or letter. The associate I spoke with was also uncertain of several of my questions, and I got differing answers from other associates. 

I am hoping to get more clarify on my refund request. 
1. Was it successfully processed?

2. When will the refund appear and my loan be re-instated on my account? There must be a better timeline than what was provided to me.

3. How will I be receiving my refunds?

That last question is of utmost important as I paid from several different payment methods, including bank accounts that are closed. I've requested the refund payments ALL via check but I have not received any confirmation that is how they will come.

Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
XXXX has been sending statements to wrong address since the loan exited forbearance in XX/XX/XXXX. I brought this issue to their attention on or around XXXX XX/XX/XXXX in CFPB Complaint XXXX. Moreover, I have tried to resolve this issue with data furnisher in prior instances because it has happened on other occasions over the past three ( 3 ) years. Each time data furnisher 's system randomly changes to a different address that I do not currently reside at when a single piece of mail may be accidentally returned or lost by USPS. Data furniser then resorts to skip- tracing WITHOUT verifying the accuracy of the addresses they use. When a piece of mail sent to that address returns, their system then randomly selects another address using skip-tracing, without verifying accuracy, resulting in a cascading effect even after the address is corrected by me. I have asked for XXXX to place this loan into an administrative forbearance and each time I've asked in phone conversation or in e-mail correspondence the request has been ignored.

Complaint:
How are you doing? I was shocked today when I reviewed my credit report again and found late payments for my student loan accounts. I disputed this account and nothing was sent to me to legally verify the accuracy and legitimacy of this reporting. It continues to report incomplete, inaccurate, and unverifiable information, and therefore, it's impossible that it was investigated and verified as being accurate Hows it possible that youve reported me 90 days late with no late payments prior to that like the 30 and 60 days, and questionable balance still reporting? Also, wasn't XXXX  student loan servicer sued for not applying payments to consumers accounts correctly. This is reporting in violation of my rights and honestly, i don't want to waste your time nor mine going back and forth, and I would like this removed from my credit as I was never late the way you're reporting it.
