Complaint:
Chase Bank closed my account for no apparent reason and is not willing to disclose the reason why. I spoke with them multiple times, but all I got was " we are not legally obligated to disclose reasons why ''. I am still in shock and disbelief that this is happening. Not sending any notices or warnings prior to closing one 's account is simply bad business. I would appreciate if this could be investigated further, so that I at least know why they decided to take such a serious step. I have never heard of something like this happening and am in complete shock since this will put me in a disadvantageous position financially and impact my future significantly. If there is a way to find out what happened, I would greatly appreciate if someone could get back to me. This is just terrible. Thank you in advance!

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Problem with customer service

Complaint:
I have had a problem with customer service at XXXX Fed Loan XXXX every single year since I moved my federal loans to them in XXXX. This in turn has cost me thousands in interest. Every time they make a mistake, " lose '' or arbitrarily double or triple my payments, I spend an hour on the phone with customer service and then they place my account in a forbearance for a few months in order to get their internal errors fixed. Additionally, I should be XXXX years into PSLF, but due to their errors many of my payments do n't count. 

My most recent issue is as follows. I applied to switch from the XXXX plan to the PAYE or REPAYE in XXXX. In XXXX I received a message from XXXXFedloan that they received my application. And I also received notification that my payment went from {$710.00} to {$2400.00} for XXXX. 

I called customer service on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and spoke with XXXX. She stated they need a 1x payment in order to switch to REPAYE, and I informed her I could n't pay the full amount. She told me not to worry about it, and that she would put a " reduced payment forbearance '' on my account allowing me to pay a reduced payment of {$800.00}. She stated this should be taken care of before my account was due on XXXX XXXX. 

However, she only placed the " forbearance '' on 2 of the 6 loans I have ( and the smallest 2 at that ). My account is now delinquent for {$2400.00}, and I am missing another month of PSLF eligibility and will likely miss XXXX as well since they have to fix this error, and than accept a 1x/payment before switching my account. 

This company is terrible, and it is unfortunate that I have no other options since I am seeking PSLF working at a non-profit children 's hospital.
