Complaint:
Previously I disputed false advertisement and false assumptions with the BBB on XXXX XXXX XXXX. They persist that I applied for a personal loan on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, which I did not. References to the first dispute is below in the inbox. XXXX XXXX Bank was notified by XXXX that I was affected by the security breach, XXXX ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX ). This when they said I applied for the credit, as you see in the information I supplied, I did not apply for credit initially. Now I believe that this could be the result of the security breach. The advertisement stated that checking to see if I qualify for a loan, it would not affect my credit, but I received a hard inquiry. The online advertisement is below in the drop box. The application they provided is totally incorrect as highlighted.

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, CA wouldn't adjust my charges despite appeals that they were grossly over-stated. I ultimately paid the bills because the collection agency threatened my credit score if I didn't pay. The collection agency, California Business Bureau ( " CBB '' ), said that they would not make derogatory claims to the credit agencies if I paid the balance and any derogatory notices to the credit reporting agencies would be rescinded from my record. That still hasn't occurred and my credit score is suffering. They made 3 " Major Derogatory '' claims against my credit on XX/XX/21, XX/XX/21 and XX/XX/21 - all of which were excessive and have not be rescinded.

Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: FL
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Don't agree with the fees charged

Complaint:
I have 3 student loans with Navient. Two of them are private and one is federal. A while back one of the private loans went into default and it was passed on to their collection agency - XXXX XXXX. At that time they told me that I could pay {$100.00} a month towards it and that Navient would report to the credit bureaus that I was making partial payments. I have been doing that faithfully ever since. I have not missed one payment. My issues are that I feel as though the loan 's interest was accrued at an outrageous rate. The original principal was {$7000.00} and the loan is now at {$14000.00}. That 's double the amount. Then whenever I try to discuss this loan with Navient they tell me that they can not because I need to talk to the collection agency but that I should also be careful with who I speak to concerning this because there are fraudsters out there. So I call the collection agency and they tell me that they will talk to Navient on my behalf. Every time they talk to Navient they come back with a settlement offer. The first settlement offer was for me to pay {$4900.00} to them and the rest of the loan would be forgiven. Now they recently sent me another settlement offer to pay them {$6000.00} for the same thing. I believe that this is turning into a game of some sort because they know that this particular loan has been set at an unreasonable price. They do not allow me to discuss this loan and they continuously come with these settlement offers ( which are increasing even though the loan is decreasing ) and I believe that the loan is overpriced/not calculated correctly.

Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: AR
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Billing problem

Complaint:
Applied for an Auto Loan through XXXX of XXXX, Arkansas. I had excellent XXXX credit at the time, income, down payment etc.not an issue. XXXX of XXXX had me fill out a credit application on an XXXX XXXX form. Later in the process I am told the financing was sold to Fifth Third bank. 

I never received an payment booklet or statement from Fifth Third bank. I had no idea when the first payment was due, the amount of the payment, or the account number. All I knew from XXXX of XXXX was Fifth Third was going to take over the loan.

After not receiving anything from Fifth Third, My husband and I tried to call them to find out how to make a payment, who to make it to. Each call was a multi-hour experience that ended with us speaking to someone overseas who was little or no help. By the time we finally got someone who could help, they said the loan was in collection, and I now had to speak with someone in the collection department. We finally got the opportunity to make a payment over the phone to bring the account current. 

I still have yet to receive any mail, bill, statement, email, phone call or text message from Fifth Third bank. 

I shortly have another payment due and no idea how to make the payment without calling them for yet another multi-hour phone experience. If this " abuse by neglect '' practice is how they treat customers with excellent credit and income, I shudder to think how they treat consumer with less-than-perfect credit. 

As a result of Fifth Third Bank 's lack of contact I now have a black mark on my credit which I have spent years maintaining at a high level.
