Consumer complaint received 2017-08-23
Company: AES/PHEAA
State: MD
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 have been on Income-Based Repayment for several years, as I am a XXXX employee, and plan to use the PSLF program. I recently got married, which ( understandably ) increased my payment. I submitted my initial Employment Verification Form in early XXXX, and my loans were transferred from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to FedLoan Servicing on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. I was paying {$610.00} a month to FedLoan Servicing. When my IBR was due for renewal, I got a letter dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX saying that if I did not renew my IBR, my payment " will increase to {$550.00}. '' Since this number was smaller than what I was paying on IBR, I cancelled my IBR and switched to Standard Repayment, expecting to pay $ XXXX. After my request was processed, my interest was capitalized ( XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and XXXX/XXXX/XXXX ) and my XXXX statement was then reduced to {$590.00}. I figured this was slightly higher than the letter stated since interest was capitalized. I continued to be billed ( and pay ) this amount in XXXX. However my XXXX statement says I owe {$690.00}. I do not understand why my payment now went up, or why it was {$590.00} for two months. I believe that I should be paying the {$550.00} as stated on the letter I received XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. I called FedLoan Servicing twice to inquire as to the different payment amounts. After being put on hold 7 times by the first person I spoke with, and still not having any answers, I tried again the next day. The second representative told me that the letter dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX must have been in error. He said that I would have a lower payment if I re-entered the IBR program. However, I now have to pay an increased amount for the next several months as they process my application. Since I am in the PSLF program, this is money out of my pocket that I would not have otherwise needed to pay, but for their misinformation. I would like this resolved because increased payments, which I did not expect, is a hardship that is caused purely by the incorrect information provided to me by FedLoan Servicing.

Company: Coinbase, Inc.
State: CO
Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: Domestic (US) money transfer
Issue: Other transaction problem

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, my Coinbase account was hacked and the scammer wire transferred {$23000.00} from my XXXX XXXX account into coinbase. I called coinbase and they locked down my account immediately. I also contacted XXXX XXXX to notify them of the scammer. On XX/XX/XXXX, the scammer attempted to wire transfer another {$23000.00} to Coinbase from my XXXX XXXX account. XXXX XXXX was able to retrieve that wire transfer before it reached Coinbase. Coinbase made {$2000.00} of the wire transfer immediately available and the scammer did transfer that money out via Bitcoin. 

As of XX/XX/XXXX, I haven't been able to access the {$23000.00} from my Coinbase account and Coinbase is saying I owe them money because the 2nd wire transfer was never completed because XXXX XXXX put a stop to that transfer. 

I was told by the first agent at Coinbase I spoke to on XX/XX/XXXX that my account would be frozen but my funds would be available in a few days. Ive placed multiple phone calls and emails to Coinbase since I was scammed and havent been successful in getting my funds released because there hasnt been a thorough investigation by the specialists and they are claiming it is me who owes Coinbase money. No one is taking the time to see this is not the case. Its been a nightmare with Coinbase 's customer service to try to get my case resolved and to get my money back. I feel like I am being scammed a second time and Coinbase is holding my money hostage unjustifiably. I am including documentation from my bank to show the two transactions that were made on XX/XX/XXXX and then the reversal of the second amount of {$23000.00} back into my XXXX XXXX account. I have also filed a police report with the city of XXXX Colorado. 

I also intend to file a complaint with the New York XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Company: Bread Financial Holdings, Inc.
State: MI
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: Store credit card
Issue: Advertising and marketing, including promotional offers
Sub-issue: Confusing or misleading advertising about the credit card

Complaint:
I bought an electric bike in XX/XX/2018 from a local retailer that was financed through Comenity Bank, which issues XXXX XXXX-branded credit cards. The card was sold to me based on the promotional financing, which advertised 0 % interest for the first year, and then interest charged on any remaining balance after that promotional term. Instead, they charged me {$770.00} in back interest! The advertising for the promotional financing was misleading at best if not outright dishonest. XXXX refused to refund me any money and XXXX does not think there is anything to be done, either, but I absolutely can not afford this extra charge. 

I know that XXXX XXXX hates me and wants poor people to suffer, so I don't expect this complaint will go anywhere, but I believe, somewhere deep down, that someone over there will care. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
There are 3 derogatory alleged medical collections placed on my XXXX, XXXX, and Experian consumer reports. These alleged collections are from the same company which is XXXX. XXXX has placed an alleged collection for {$200.00}, {$260.00}, and {$260.00}. I have tried to get this removed with no luck. I was involved in an auto accident and when my attorney settled the case all of my medical bills were paid out of the settlement. This collection company committed fraud by stating that these accounts meet FCRA requirements. They did not provide proof that these belong to me nor did they provide documentation showing that I signed any contracts with my social security number on any paperwork. I have all paperwork from the accident that I will provide to the courts because I will be seeking a remedy from the XXXX and from XXXX, XXXX, and Experian for allowing this company to commit fraud. XXXX did not get my permission to place these fraudulent collections on all 3 of my consumer reports. They have violated consumer law 15 USC 1681b ( 2 ) which is a {$1000.00} violation among other violations. XXXX also ran a soft pull on my consumer reports before placing these alleged collections. I have also provided proof that XXXX ran a soft pull on my consumer reports before placing these fraudulent accounts.

Company: National Enterprise Systems, Inc.
State: OH
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Private student loan debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive notice of right to dispute

Complaint:
I received a credit monitoring alert on XXXX XXXX, XXXX which indicated that there was a new debt collection on my credit report. I retrieved the contact information of the company and contacted them immediately. When I told them I had n't received anything in the mail the representative told me that information was sent to address that she indicated she knew was an old address from XXXX. When I asked about receiving a call about the debt the representative claimed that they had my current phone number and they attempted to call me but there was no answer. She claimed this call was attempted on XXXX XXXX, XXXX which was 13 days after the company supposedly inherited the debt according to their records. I checked with my cell phone carrier after going through the call log on my phone and there was no call from this company, or any foreign number in my call records for that day. The representative asked me to update my address, however, I declined because I know they have it if they have my current phone number which is a number I have had for the last two years. When I asked the representative why they did not update my address the same way they updated my phone number, she told me that the company does not change the address that the original creditor provides. Which to me makes no sense.
