Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
I paid for a full one year gym membership at XXXX with a GMCardbacked by CapitalOneon XX/XX/XXXX. I paid for 12 months, the duration of the agreement, on the spot. I used the membership throughout XXXX and XXXX. In XXXX, more than a year later, I went back to the same gym. I asked if I needed to sign another contract. They said I could simply pay month to month. I gave them a new card issued by GMCard, once again. The gym apparently set up automatic payments without my knowledge at the time. I never signed any documents in XXXX. I realized this situation a few months after, and I called the gym at the time to ask them to stop charging me. They refused, and demanded I go in person to a gym to cancel the membership. I explained to them that I never agreed to being put on automatic payments, and that I was not under contract at the time therefore not under any obligation to cancel anything. They continued to charge me, and I disputed the charges on my card. I fulfilled all the requirements and responded to the credit card companys request in a timely manner. At first, the credit card reversed the charges. But then the gym sent a copy of the contract from XXXX of XXXX. From my understanding, the credit card company didnt really look closely at the dates and the stipulations of the document. They decided in the gymss favor even though this was an old contract that was paid in full and terminated. There was a whole year gap from when this contract ended to when I returned to the gym during which I never made a payment. 
We have been going back and forth for a few months. When I complained to the credit card company, first they sided with me. I wrote a letter and even spoke to a representative to explained that the membership agreement I signed is not binding for life. However, the gym sent the same membership agreement from XXXX, and the a different credit card department reverted to siding with them. The credit card company is not doing their due diligence to look at the dispute in front of them. Because I have no documents to prove I did NOT sign a contract in XXXX, they side with them. The only document they have provided is the old terminated contract from XXXX.

Complaint:
This particular account situation that is lately filing on my own credit document has a seriously unfavorable relation to my personal ability to obtain a present loan application. I highly recommend you generate verification that Credit Union has been reported completely in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act regulations, it's really a serious problem to misreport. More confirmation of the aforesaid item too. My proper request must over, I was never 30 days/60 days/120 days late in any of my payments and I'm not greatly tuned in to the date opened so I prefer to ask you be investigated as soon as possible and confirmed to be correct. Thanks!

Company: MOHELA
State: MO
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 applied for the income-driven repayment SAVE repayment plan through the studentaid.gov website on XX/XX/XXXX, the same day I applied for PSLF with my employer information. When I applied, it was estimated I would owe XXXX XXXXXXXX on the SAVE plan due to my previous tax information. At the time, my loan servicer was XXXX, who I have never had issues with. I then received notification my loans were being transferred to MOHELA. I began receiving different billing statements from MOHELA, one stating I owed {$350.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, and another stating I owed upwards of {$850.00} in XXXX of XXXX. I reapplied for SAVE on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX after contacting studentaid.gov and being told they did not have any information and I would need to reach out to MOHELA. I was unable to contact MOHELA. I waited on hold for hours before having to hang up due to working. I sent an email and received notification back that I would hear back in two business days, but weeks later I still have not received a response. Finally, I called and waited on hold for upwards of two hours on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke to a MOHELA rep who told me my initial SAVE application from XXXX was probably " lost in the transfer '' and that it was good I resubmitted a SAVE application on XX/XX/XXXX. This rep told me it would only take 5-7 business days to process my SAVE application and I would not have to pay any of the payments I was billed for in XXXX. After XXXX business days went by with no notifications, I called and sat on hold with MOHELA for three hours to be told that it would actually take 90 days to process my SAVE application and I was already being auto-debited in the mean time for the {$350.00} bill. I asked if there was any way this could be cancelled due to this being an error on the part of MOHELA, and I was told that they didn't know. As a XXXX XXXX new out of XXXX school, this payment is not realistic for me. I feel as though MOHELA can not give me clear answers as to what happened to my original SAVE application and I am told conflicting information each time I call. Their mistakes are costing me money I do not have and I need clarification on where my loans are at.
