Company: Coinbase, Inc.
State: TX
Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: Virtual currency
Issue: Money was not available when promised

Complaint:
This is the second complaint I've had to file against Coinbase as their low level support personnel continue to mishandle and ignore my case. Recap : On XX/XX/XXXX, a fork of Bitcoin called XXXX XXXX ( XXXX  ) occurred. Coinbase promised their customers that anyone storing Bitcoin on Coinbase on XX/XX/XXXX would receive the equivalent number of XXXX XXXX when they rolled it out in XX/XX/XXXX. I held XXXX Bitcoin in a custom vault called XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX1. But Coinbase has still not credited my account as promised. They immediately closed my original support ticket with a generic response that had nothing to do with my case. I only got a response to my second support ticket ( Case # XXXX ) after I filed a complaint with CFPB. That response, shockingly, was that XXXX XXXX was not a supported currency on Coinbase! After I insisted it was, the Coinbase rep XXXX responded that they are working on XXXX XXXX XXXX and that I should wait. So I waited. A few weeks later, XXXX said that my XXXX was ready to be withdrawn from my XXXX XXXX XXXX. I logged into Coinbase, but there was no XXXX balance. I told XXXX this. I explained to her what I thought the problem may be : that the XXXX XXXX  that held my Bitcoin on XX/XX/XXXX ( called XXXX ) no longer exists. After the fork, I had moved my XXXX into my regular Coinbase XXXX wallet, and from there, to a desktop wallet. Then I deleted XXXX. I speculated that the XXXX that is owed to me is tied to XXXX and since that vault was deleted after the fork, my XXXX XXXX had nowhere to go. So I explained all this to XXXX, and she responded with " Im working with a specialist to review and finalize your balance transfer. We will follow-up as soon as the transfer is complete. '' So I waited. Then, on XX/XX/XXXX, I got a shocking reply from a different Coinbase rep : they sent me instructions on how to re-link my email address to my Coinbase account. What?! I'm not having an issue with my email!! After explaining my issue in great detail, they have once again bungled my case, and they are no longer responding to my queries. I have not heard anything else from them. This situation has become beyond unprofessional, it is ludicrous. Today, on XX/XX/XXXX, the XXXX owed to me by Coinbase is worth {$5600.00}, no small sum. If this is not rectified immediately I will be initiating litigation.

State: PA

Issue: Other features, terms, or problems
Sub-issue: Other problem

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I made a {$480.00} payment to PayPal in efforts to keep my account under 30 % utilization. On XX/XX/XXXX after the payment processed they immediately decreased my credit limit by {$500.00} making me go back to 100 % utilization. 
Calls to their customer service were a series of transfers and stating that nothing could be done. The reasons Stated is that there are too many revolving accounts with high balance and that is literally what I was trying to resolve and they are being counterproductive to that. The only reason I made such a large payment was that I intended to use this as an emergency card during the pandemic and now I lost {$500.00} for essentially no purpose.

Complaint:
BB & T was unable to close at the date/time committed to in writing, which resulted in financial harm to me.

The relevant portion of his email to me reads : " The refund for your appraisal costs has also been approved by regional management. The refund for the appraisal will be sent out in the form of a check via overnight mail once your loan has closed. '' After my loan closed, BB & T has refused to reimburse this cost, as promised. 

2 ) BB & T committed ( again, in writing ) to reimburse me for additional monetary damages I suffered as a result of their delay. I provided detailed written documentation of these damages, amounting to {$2000.00}. However, BB & T has ignored my communications, providing nothing in response. Therefore, BB & T owes me a total of {$3500.00} that they have committed in writing to paying, all of which has been clearly documented. Instead, they are ignoring my communications and refusing to pay.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
When I attempted to place a credit report freeze on my account, Equifax WARNED the PIN they would send MUST be used to access ( unlock ) my credit report. 
Their transmittal : Could'nt open PDF So now my account is frozen, and I NEVER received a PIN to unlock it. 

I am dissatisfied to accept Equifax 's offer of one year credit monitoring as I read it is BUNDLED ( in the fine print ) to an arbitration clause. Anyone with a brain understands arbitration is a FRAUD perpetrated against consumers. Which you seem fine with. Tells where your paychecks are REALLY coming from. 

Attempting to place a credit report freeze at XXXX  has been IMPOSSIBLE. 
Online, they as much as call me a liar and refuse to allow a freeze. They then recommend I call XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to speak with an agent who will pace a freeze. 
Great. Until you realize they will NEVER answer. I have made multiple attempts, given my SSN, zip code and street address number to their XXXX robot answering machine and then am dumped into a ( never answered ) cue. 

MY data was stolen. Now this breach is being compounded by the relevant credit reporting bureau 's REFUSAL to allow safeguards to be emplaced. 
Please save this communication for referral should litigation become necessary.

Complaint:
When my mother passed, I inherited her property. I received the deed a few months after her passing. I worked out a modification with the original lender, XXXX, and was paying as agreed upon. Eventually, my loan was sold to Selene Financial. I entered a new modification plan with them and was paying as agreed. My payments were to be around $ XXXX/mo ( with taxes and insurance escrowed ). Unexpectedly, my mortgage doubled to around $ XXXX/mo with no explanation. The mortgage statement said that my escrow was - {$4200.00} which i would take that to mean that they paid the taxes and insurance but after speaking with the county, Selene never paid them. I had to pay my taxes and insurance out of pocket. They are no longer accepting my payments and they are not honoring the modification.

Complaint:
When card holders of Capital One US Credit cards make payments to the account they must do so by XXXX EST. Other financial institutions allow you until XXXX EST. Each time that the payment is made after XXXX you get a {$37.00} late fee and hurt your chances of improving your credit with and increase ( I am trying to remodel my home and was going to ask for an increase ) even when you you make the payment on the due date just after XXXX EST. When you call capital one to talk with them about this, you will get told that is their policy and there is never anyone there to give the information to that would maybe pass the idea along to catch of with the reset of the industry. I have made multiple calls to the but clearly it never goes anywhere. 

I am very responsible and I am a XXXX XXXX XXXX who has been working 7 days a week for 12hrs a day because of the recent hurricanes and when i called them after work at XXXX on XXXX to try and XXXX XXXX the money tonight so i would not be late, i was told that any payment weather XXXX XXXX or through my account, would be considered late after XXXX EST. I have made the payment a few years ago at a XXXX union after XXXX and it was n't late, that has now changed. Why are they making it harder to make payments and punish the consumer for trying to make a payment on the day it is due. 

If you are in PST ( CA, OR, WA ) you only have until XXXX your time. Why is this even a thing? This is XXXX, something needs to change. I am sure if this is happening to me its happening to more people.
