State: FL
Product: Consumer Loan
Sub-product: Vehicle loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint:
I have been paying my auto loan for over two years and have actually overpaid each month, sometimes paying more than twice the minimum amount. Out of nowhere four months ago I was contacted claiming that for two and a half years, without notice my due date was earlier in the month and despite overpaying I had accrued years of late fees. I was assured that the late fees would be cleared and the due date changed. A month later after " solving '' the problem I was called over ten times in one day for the same issue. Another month later after " solving '' the problem again I was called over ten times in one day and had to " solve '' the problem again. This harassment has gone on now for four months. I have sent them a cease and desist notice and advised that if the harassment continues, I would be seeking legal action.

Complaint:
The servicer response to my previous complaint was inaccurate. The issues I am facing have not been addressed and although a new HAMP XXXX is on file with the servicer - Bank of America, the foreclosure sale scheduled for Tuesday, XXXX XXXX 2015 has not yet been cancelled even tough all the required documents have been verified as received and uploaded for review. The red tape and servicing mismanagement has not changed. Before the XXXX XXXX was even acknowledged or decided, another foreclosure sale was scheduled. Also, the XXXX dispute letters I submitted via certified mail have never been acknowledged even though I know from the green certified postal return receipt card that they were received and signed for. I am not getting a fair review of my mortgage modification requests even though HUD counselors have advised me I am eligible for XXXX or more of the programs available for homeowner relief.

Issue: Problems caused by my funds being low

Complaint:
Bank of America charged me XXXX overdraft fees in one day for items returned for insufficient funds. A payment to my credit card was processed earlier than I thought and I had insufficient funds for other XXXX transactions that occurred on the same day ( some for as low as a few $ ). The total overdraft charges were {$140.00} in one day. I have been with Bank of America for years and of course I will close my account as soon as feasible. I spoke to a manager XXXX XXXX on the phone ( he said he was at the West Virginia location of the Bank of America ) about this and they refused to even consider canceling XXXX overdraft fee. I hope the CFPB can intervene and assist. Frankly, it is appalling how Bank of America can do this.

I received a letter dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX from a company called Dynamic Recovery Solutions. They claim to represent XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. They list an original creditor as XXXX and an account ending in XXXX. They say I owe {$740.00}. I feel that this is incorrect as I have no Creditor known as XXXX.

To summarize I feel that this is a non-collectable debt and I deny any and all responsibility for it.

Complaint:
I 've wrote the CFPB about four months ago about Ocwen Servicing and how they stall in working out a re-modification. Once you contacted them, we got an immediate call from them. I am in a chapter XXXX and have been working thru the courts and have been makingpayments as agreed. Now they are offering us a new payment, but they are adding a $ 50thousand dollar payment at the end of the loan. The trustee said that was not acceptable and did not approve re-mod. My lawyer said that balloon payment should not be allowedin government programs as the Hamp or Harp. Are these companies allowed to do this? 
We have been working on this re-mod since XX/XX/2014. we have made all trial payments and more and still no help. We know that Ocwen was cited foe misleading and not helping homeowners in distress. I am being force to pay for a home that is worth lessthan the loan amount. All the payments do not show where the monies go and have ideawhere the money goes and they keep adding fees.

Complaint:
Bank of America refuses to terminate mortgage insurance on the property, even thou the LTV is below 70 %. BofA demanding we pay {$450.00} for another appraisal to be done by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on our property. I think it is unnecessary and violates the spirit and the letter of the Federal Homeowners Protection Act of XXXX as amended in XXXX. The full appraisal of the subject property was performed on XXXX XXXX, XXXX by a fully licensed appraiser, certified to perform appraisals for FHA. The subject property was appraised at {$490000.00}. A copy of the Appraisal Report was submitted to BofA on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. The current Principal Balance on the loan is {$340000.00}. Nowhere in the loan documents does it state that the only acceptable appraisal can be performed by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Under the law BofA is required to automatically terminate PMI under these circumstances. We requested termination XXXX times and it is denied. 
In BofA 's letters dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and again on XXXX XXXX, XXXX it stated " your current Loan to Value ( LTV ) ratio is above 80.0 %. A new appraisal is required '' and requested payment of {$450.00}. The statement that current LTV is above 80.0 % is incorrect, and contradicts BofA ' own data. According to the letter dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX received from BofA, it estimated the Property Value as of XXXX XXXX, XXXX to be {$470000.00}. With current Principal Balance of {$340000.00} the current LTV ratio based on BofA 's own Property Value Estimate is 71.00 %, well below 80 %. Furthermore, even if you take the Purchase Price of the Property at the time of purchase in XXXX, of {$430000.00}, the current principal balance of {$340000.00} represents LTV of under 80.0 %. I believe BofA request for a new appraisal is motivated by policy to generate additional costs and fees, and to prolong the time and cost of unnecessary PMI charges. I also believe it violates current law on this subject.

The charge is only {$5.00} but if this is because a hacker is siphoning off a few dollars off of everyone, then it still deserves to be investigated.

They enrolled me over the phone, and they put me on minimum pay when I wanted the balance auto paid. 

As platinum member, I get refunded interest when I called later. Responsiveness is great, but the system seems designed to make it as hard as possible to auto-pay the full balance.
