Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Called after sent written cease of comm

Complaint:
For the last XXXX years, every morning, XXXX days a week, at XXXX Ocwen calls the above number. We do not answer because we have a representative that is handling all communication with the lender. Ocwen has been instructed a number of time to please contact that representative, but continues to call every morning even though our representative has been in contact with them on a weekly basis. Ocwen never leaves a message. They call repeatedly in the mornings. One call after another, then they attempt to reach me on my cell phone from an unlisted number throughout the day, and do not leave a message. Yesterday, morning, XXXX/XXXX/2015, I answered the phone. I let them know that I have written a letter to the XXXX of Ocwen regarding our situation. I said I would not speak to anyone until I received an answer to that letter. I asked that they not call again, or I would submit a harassment report.

Issue: Loan modification,collection,foreclosure

Complaint:
XX/XX/2015 close to 8 months ago I began a mortgage Modification with Select Portfolio Servicing my current mortgage servicer. Early last my XXXX had a major set back when I lost my XXXX. Since beginning the process I have seen first-hand incompetence and miscommunication. As of this date my home has been appraised 3 times with each value thousands of dollars different from the one before, I have had values of $ XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. Right now I owe {$470000.00} on the house. Since this night mare began I have submitted dozens of paystubs, and bank statements as well as any other documents that have been requested. I have spent hours on the phone talking with one representative after another and very seldom receiving the same information. At first I chalked this up to an over worked staff but as month after month has passed I came to the conclusion that no one business could be run so poorly, this had to be done purposely in order to tack on more fees to the back of the loan. In order to avoid any further issues at least with a pending foreclosure I began to pay 3 months ago on what was described as a streamlined modification which according to one rep was given to me by the Federal Government with out income verification but this would not affect the modification that I have in process. Even this was a point of contention in that I was originally told that if I began to pay I would be accepting this agreement which is saving me less than {$100.00}. and that the modification that I have been working on for the last 8 months we be voided. I am thankful that every conversation that I have had has been recorded I encourage the investigator to listen to these tapes and hear for themselves the misinformation that is given. I have been bombarded by dozens of letters which I receive daily asking for information then acknowledging that it was received and then asking for the same document again. I know that as part of this complaint that you will ask for documentation. I have well over XXXX XXXX pages that I will not burden you with. I am sending over the XXXX appraisals as well as a document request letter and a staement.

Complaint:
On XXXX of 2016 my girlfriend accepted a job. Little to our knowledge it was a job scam. The job provided contracts, websites, accreditation, and business registration number. She was told her job was an XXXX. She was told a client was sending money to our account. She was told to open a XXXX XXXX XXXX account. She was told after thirty days they would put her on the company account but until then she had to use her own. The client wired XXXX into our account. The bank approved it and allowed her to move the money. Domestic wire transfers are reviewed and posted the same day. It took a week for them to decide to reject the wire transfer. They froze the account with NO NOTICE. They would n't tell me anything but that my account was under review and to call in three business days. I could n't access my money. I am in the XXXX in three months. I was treated awful by the bank they did n't work with me at all. They accused me of fraud. They should have froze the account the day the wire transfer went in and investigated it then. They should have flagged it. My girlfriend was scammed and we have to pay for it? What kind of protection is that? The fraud department at USAA does n't even have contact information. They said we could n't talk to anyone about the investigation. It was n't until the bank froze the account we found out the job was a scam. We wish we would have known the day the transfer happened. This job spent three weeks convincing and " training '' my girlfriend. She had no idea it was a scam and she even XXXX and asked for verifications. The bank let us down by not protecting us. We make average money the bank has never seen huge amounts hit out account they should have called and asked about it. They should have investigated it. Within a week of freezing the account all they said was the name was spelled wrong. They were accusing US of first party fraud? And they were exercising their right to do business with us ... not to mention informing us the bank took a " hit '' by approving the funds they did n't review so we had to pay it back.

Complaint:
My first payment was missed due to my son being XXXX and not having any PTO available. I informed Advance Anerica Representative of this and he stated that he would note the account. I am continuing to be harassed daily with multiple phone calls to my home and cell and even work after they were instructed not to call my workplace. They have also gone to my workplace to attempt to collect the payment. Since then my regularly scheduled payments have gone through as well as the payday loan. They are very badgering and do not assist when you truly need a payment moved or placed to the end of your loan. I regret going with them for my installment loan and referring a friend to them as well.

Not only did the credit card not only was robbery papers submitted, this company has illegally put the card in collections to sell it to someone else to make money, that is a crime. Not only that I was only an authorized user, from only XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. I was nothing more than that and not only that XXXX took USAA CREDIT CARD off my report realizing its illegal activity. Not only that, USAA reported wrong amount. There are 4 illegal things, not just one here, not only that 4 years I tried to resolve this, this is disgusting.

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX, 2015, I learned that my credit card had been compromised via a text message from my bank, USAA. I called the company immediately and I thought I had made all arrangements necessary to have the card formally reported compromised to the card issuer, turned off, and a new one sent to me. A week later, I found out the bank had not turned off the card nor reported it to the card issuer. The representative of the bank stated that this was because our phone call had been cut off near the end of the call, and that the bank 's representatives are forbidden from calling customers back to complete the process, nor will they proceed with the actions being taken. Customers are not informed of this. In my case, this meant I did not know that my account was still vulnerable for a week.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX I became XXXX payment delinquent on my auto loan with USAA. Upon returning to work in XXXX I called and made arrangements to pay XXXX payment and portion of the past due amount until I was current. In XX/XX/XXXX {$120.00} was applied to late charges despite my intent and misleading statement from the representative who assured me it was their process to apply payments in this manner anyway. When I realized what had happened I spoke with another representative on XX/XX/XXXX who told me this would be corrected my requesting a misapplied payment reversal. Once again the payment I made on XX/XX/XXXX a portion - {$26.00} was applied to a late charge and the reversal that was promised did not happen. After a conversation on XX/XX/XXXX in speaking with a very rude representative and her manager, they basically stated the policy is they always apply to late charge prior to allowing the consumer to pay to past and future payments. I stated this was unfair and deceptive, they stated I had no recourse ; but to accept this. In going through my pay history in order to allow these fees to accumulate there has to be a variation of this policy ; but they would not consider it. At the end of the day applying in the manner that they claim is " policy '' allows the bank to continue to incur fees on top of fees because it would take the consumer a lengthier time to become current.

This company contacted me via mail saying that they were collecting a debt on behalf of XXXX for an account that is 3 years old that I never had. They said if I disputed this information to write them within 30 days and I did. I received another letter from them on XX/XX/2015 stating the same thing and to respond within 30 days. I have credit monitoring and on XX/XX/2015 less than 30 days they put this item on my credit report anyway after I have disputed in writing once. They never sent me any paperwork regarding this matter and they are wrong to report it anyway. I am not able to scan the letters they sent and that I sent but I am more than happy to fax them or mail them if needed.

Complaint:
I have an ongoing investigation with Macy's/Citi concerning 2 accounts with fraudulent transactions. The first, I opened and have used for several years until XX/XX/2016, when I identified fraudulent purchases. I notified Macy 's ( store ) who could not help. I had to call the credit/security department during their regular hours, M-F XXXX ET. Living in XXXX., that is n't easy to do when you are working .None the less, I did, I received and completed the needed affidavits/statements concerning the purchases. Not long after, I saw that a new account was opened ( I did not authorize ) which had many transactions. Some orders I was able to cancel and several items were mailed to various addresses around the country. I never even received the card. I also saw that my email address for confirmations was changed ( not be me ). It was just slightly different than my own. I have been receiving calls from " apparently '' the Macy 's fraud department. No messages are left. Today I called back and I was told that they could not tell me why they were calling. I looked at the closed accounts which still show a past due balance and I receive payment notices. I placed an outbound call to the phone number I had and spoke with XXXX, # XXXX and explained that the calls must stop and the accounts closed and balances charged off. I am concerned that the derogatory credit will be provided to the credit bureaus and I will be left with the mess. It has been more than 90 days. I do not want a derogatory report submitted, even if it is later corrected.

Complaint:
1. Incorrect payment application 2. Deceptive advertising 3. Fraudulent / incorrect 4. Incorrect amortization of finance charges ongoing 5. Disregard for basic Truth In Lending Statutes 6. Misleading statements 7. Inability to access promotional charges through online interface I made multiple special financing purchases through my Amazon Prime Store Card which is provided by Synchrony Bank and serviced by Synchrony bank. 

During the course of these promotional periods, I also made normal routine purchases on my Amazon Prime Store Card. 

I have repeatedly had to message in, every month pretty much, to what I need to pay in order to avoid interest charges. I also have to request that it be applied in a way that avoids interest on my non-promotional charges. They have no way of doing this online or through the statement. On my 2 most recent statements ( XXXX 2017, XXXX 2017 ) in addition to at least 1 prior statement, I noticed that Amazon had ( without my knowledge or consent ) changed a very substantial amount of my special financing. I was not given an option to accept or decline this change, nor was I made aware of any finance charge implications or overall cost of financing. In addition, under my activity tab in my co-branded Synchrony Bank ( Amazon ) account - the system has not been able to show me my promotional balances and my statements have been incorrect and the numerous agents I 've chatted with have all told me different amounts and stories about the interest and what has happened with the account. I believe this is a systemic problem within Synchrony Bank servicing and procedure and I 'm left confused and feeling there is n't any real adherence to Truth In Lending Act or the Card Act for the matter. I am now ready to hire an attorney and seek out a class action lawsuit against this company.
